Chapter 43: Threats
After getting the desired result, Li Changde left with everyone.
Outside the ancestral hall, only Ye Kai and Li Qin were left.
Looking at Ye Kai with a calm face, Li Qin said slightly apologetically: "I'm sorry, young master, I couldn't say anything for you just now?"
Ye Kai agreed so simply, which made him a little surprised.
However, if he stood in Ye Kai's position, Li Qin also felt that there seemed to be no other choice but to compromise.
After all, Ye Kai is now helpless in the Li family, if he doesn't accept the arrangement of the clan elders, what awaits him will be the fate of being expelled.
"Hey, it's okay, Uncle Qin. Ye Kai smiled and said, "It's good to have such a result, before I came, I was worried that the clan elders would make things difficult for me in every way, but now it seems that they are still reasonable." ”
If he was Li Juechen, he would definitely feel very aggrieved at this moment, and even hold a grudge.
But the problem is that he is not, so it doesn't matter if he is not a young master.
And it's good to stay away from the Li family, if he wants to leave, he can do so at any time.
In the final analysis, he also chose to stay here for the sake of building a foundation, and there was no need to get involved in the power struggle of the Li family.
Now that the elders of the Li family are doing this, they are helping him transfer the hot potato of the young master of the Li family, and it is too late for him to be happy, how can he feel sad.
"However, it has been less than a month since the old man passed away, and the bones are still cold, and they can't wait to take the position of your young master, isn't this bullying you to be weak? This is inevitably too much!" Li Qin looked a little angry and said.
This sentence seemed to be fighting for Ye Kai, but in fact, it was to test Ye Kai's attitude, he didn't believe that Ye Kai would accept the arrangement of the clan elders so honestly.
"It's really chilling. Ye Kai shook his head with a wry smile and said, "However, the matter has come to this point, it is useless to talk about it, now I just want to cultivate well, as long as I become stronger, what I lost today, one day they will take the initiative to return it." ”
"It's great that the young master can think like this, and the head of the family will definitely feel very relieved in the spirit of the sky. Li Qin nodded thoughtfully.
Sure enough, Ye Kai seemed to be unfazed on the surface, but there was actually some unwillingness in his heart.
However, what he didn't know was that Ye Kai was just pretending to say this.
Not only did he not lose anything, but he gained a lot, and he was secretly happy in his heart!
The two then walked into the ancestral hall.
After worshipping his ancestors and father, Ye Kai was about to leave, but a person he didn't expect suddenly hurried towards him at this time.
"Thank God, eldest nephew, you can be regarded as back, you really miss my second uncle!"
Before the person arrived, Li Bahu's voice came from afar.
Ye Kai's body couldn't help but be slightly stunned when he heard this, in the entire Li Mansion, there was only one person who could call him like this, and Li Bahu's identity was self-evident.
It stands to reason that Li Bahu should regard him as a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh, and he can't wait to kill him and then hurry up, but he doesn't know which one he is singing.
Looking at Li Bahu, who was hiding a knife in his smile, Ye Kai suddenly became vigilant, and then pretended not to know anything, and stepped forward and said, "Long time no see, second uncle, I plan to go over to you later, I didn't expect you to come over so soon!"
"It's good to come back, it's good to come back!" Li Bahu sighed again and again, and said: "If you can come back, this stone in my heart will finally land." ”
"Tut-tut, please be a person, uncle, looking for someone to cut me behind my back, but pretending to be so kind when I meet, you are also hypocritical!" Seeing Li Bahu acting so coyly, Ye Kai couldn't help but feel a burst of nausea, and secretly complained.
However, although I think so in my heart, after all, people are under the eaves, and the drama that should be played still has to be acted.
So, Ye Kai continued to speak: "It's been wrong all these years, so everyone is worried about me." ”
"Let the past pass, the second uncle is also young, I understand you!" Li Bahu smiled and said, "Since you are back, you can live with peace of mind, and the second uncle will make the decision for you." ”
Saying that, Li Bahu didn't know what he remembered, suddenly raised his head and glanced around, and then pretended to be surprised and said to Ye Kai: "By the way, I heard that those old guys blocked the door of the ancestral hall and didn't let you in, why didn't they even embarrass you, right?"
"Second Uncle is talking about the Seventh Uncle!" Ye Kai smiled faintly and said, "You're late, they're already gone." ”
Afterwards, Ye Kai then told Li Bahu what had happened, and at the same time highlighted his central idea that he had no intention of being the young master, suggesting that he didn't have to be too hostile to himself.
He knew that it was not very useful for him to do this, because Li Bahu had already moved on with killing intent towards him, and he would not stop there.
One thing he can be sure of is that he should be safe for a short time.
After all, he has returned to the Li Mansion, and if something happens at this time, Li Bahu is the most suspicious.
He felt that Li Bahu was a person with a lot of city government, and he would not be stupid enough to do such a truth-telling thing.
"I didn't expect there to be such a thing?!" Although he had already known what had happened from his subordinates, Li Bahu still pretended to be angry and said to Ye Kai: "Are those old guys old and confused, why did they deprive you of the position of young master, could it be that it was because of that old thing about the old sesame seeds and rotten grains? This is just nonsense!"
"Don't worry, eldest nephew, you are the only bloodline of the eldest brother, who is qualified to do it if you don't become the young master? I will definitely be the master of this matter, you will live in the mansion first, and then I will reason with them after I am busy for a while, and I can't let you suffer this grievance!"
"Don't do that, second uncle. Although he knew that what Li Bahu said was a lie, Ye Kai still showed an anxious expression, and opened his mouth to dissuade: "In the end, the person who is wrong is me, and I have been away from home for so many years, and I have not contributed anything to the family, if I continue to be the young master, I will not be able to convince the public." It's fair for the clan elders to treat me like this. ”
"That's true, but you were young before, and it was the same for you to contribute to the family in the future. Li Bahu looked indifferent, but he was thinking in his heart whether Ye Kai's words were true or false.
"By the way, second uncle, I heard that you are gathering people to prepare to deal with the bandits in Heifeng Village and avenge my father, I don't know how things are going?" Ye Kai had no intention of saying more on this matter, so he changed the topic.
"I'm angry when I say that. Li Bahu's face suddenly became gloomy, and he said: "Half a month ago, the elite of the clan was exhausted, and they rushed to attack Black Wind Village overnight. It was quite smooth at first, but who knew that when I attacked the mountain, I found that the bandit leader Hei Mazi didn't know where to get the news, so he escaped in advance!"
"Originally, I thought it was a pity, but unexpectedly, a few days ago, that black pockmark suddenly appeared in the city and killed three of our clansmen one after another, which was really arrogant. If you go out these days, you have to be careful, don't give Hei Mazi a chance!"
"I know, thank you Second Uncle for reminding me!" Ye Kai said with a slightly ugly face.
Originally, he thought that there would be no danger in the Li Mansion for the time being, but he didn't expect that there would be an uncertain threat of black pockmarks, and his mood suddenly became heavy.
In case Li Bahu used the name of Hei Mazi to attack himself, then Donglin City would be an extremely dangerous place for him.
