Chapter 65: Duplicity
Shaoxing Shenzhuang, in Taoyuan.
Seeing the sun set and the night getting thicker, Shen Xiaoqing in the pavilion began to panic.
In the past, she liked to be quiet at night, suitable for reading books and practicing calligraphy or practicing mental methods, but recently she hated getting dark, and once it was dark, the peach orchard became quieter, and it was a little scary.
Ye Fei has been away for nine days, and there is no news of the whole person. Except for her, it seems that everyone is used to the days without Ye Fei, as if Ye Fei has never appeared.
"Miss, eat something, you've only eaten a few bites at noon. Chun Tao came to her with a bowl of porridge and two side dishes.
"Chun Tao, you eat, I'm not hungry. Shen Xiaoqing smiled at Chun Tao.
"Miss!" Chun Tao frowned and hesitated for a while, "Miss, if you feel bored, Chun Tao will accompany you to Hangzhou for a walk." ”
A gleam flashed in Shen Xiaoqing's eyes, and he asked, "What are you doing in Hangzhou?"
"Miss, you are asking knowingly. ”
"Chun Tao, what nonsense are you talking about. ”
"Okay, Chun Tao is too talkative, Miss, you have a hard mouth, you can fool everyone, but you can't fool yourself. ”
"What are you lying about?" suddenly a voice floated in.
The two were startled, and then looked at the courtyard gate, only to see Shen Yu with a sad face coming in with his hands behind his back.
"Father," Shen Xiaoqing got up to greet him, "why are you here?"
"Let's see how you're recovering from your injuries. ”
"My daughter is almost as good as she is, and she will definitely be able to attend the World Conference in time. ”
"That's okay, the Ye family's ancestral secret recipe really works wonders," Shen Yu smiled, and immediately his face sank, "However, this kid Ye Fei has caused a big trouble in Hangzhou recently!"
"Ah!" Shen Xiaoqing was stunned, he didn't expect that he actually learned about Ye Fei's recent situation from his father.
"Father, what's wrong with him?"
In order to get back their previous house, he injured the son of the owner of the He family in Hangzhou Kuaidao, and also broke the man's left leg and hamstring. Shen Yu said angrily.
"Ah, doesn't he know martial arts?" Shen Xiaoqing questioned.
"Have you forgotten that there is a Meng Jiu by his side? ”
"But Dad, don't you think it's strange, he wants to get his house back, what does it have to do with the He family of Kuaidao? Could it be that the He family of Kuaidao has occupied his house? If this is the case, it is not his fault. ”
Shen Yu wanted to speak and stopped, the corners of his mouth twitched. After thinking about it, he snorted angrily, "Whatever the reason, he shouldn't have caused trouble. Now all the martial arts families in Hangzhou have written to me jointly, asking me to deal with this matter, what do you think I should do?"
"There is actually a martial arts family in Hangzhou?" Shen Xiaoqing said disdainfully.
"Daughter, don't look down on those martial arts families in Hangzhou, if it weren't for Xiao Yihe to stop Zhao Bi, the signboard of our Shen family would have been smashed!"
As soon as he heard Shen Yu mention Xiao Yihe, Shen Xiaoqing felt irritated in his heart.
"Father, Ye Fei is still your son-in-law now, right? If someone else wants to occupy your son-in-law's house, you don't help him, and in turn, you have to teach him a lesson for those who occupy his house.
"Nonsense!" Shen Yu was already angry, "Isn't it just a broken house!, Also, you can offend all the Hangzhou martial arts families for Ye Fei." ”
"Dad, you just cherish your good name. ”
"Isn't this nonsense? Life in the world, isn't it just the word fame and fortune? If the kid surnamed Ye was not greedy for fame and fortune, how could he come to our house to be a son-in-law! I will deal with this matter, I came to tell you that I don't want to meddle in this matter. ”
"Just take care of it!" Shen Xiaoqing said stubbornly.
"You!" Shen Yu raised his hand, his face red and his ears red.
Chun Tao was so frightened that she knelt on the ground and begged, "Master, please stop your anger!"
"If you take care of this matter, I will kick Chun Tao out of the house tomorrow!"
"If you dare to drive away Chun Tao, I will run away from home!"
Shen Yu was so angry that he had a headache and left angrily.
After Shen Yu left, Shen Xiaoqing hurriedly helped Chun Tao up and said, "Chun Tao, let's run away from home." ”
"Miss, are you going to find your uncle?"
Shen Xiaoqing shook his head and snorted, "I don't want to go to him!"
"Forget it, then. Miss, the family conference is coming soon, your injuries are just right, and it will take some time to prepare and cultivate. This is far less comfortable than at home, and it takes a lot of delay. Chun Tao persuaded bitterly.
"But, am I just looking at my dad and not helping my relatives?
"Miss, do you think of your uncle as a relative?"
"What's the matter, it's just that he is still my husband after all, and he also represents the Shen family when he goes out. ”
"Miss, just keep your mouth shut. But, miss, don't forget that it's my uncle. Do you think that with his uncle's temperament, he will obey the arrangements of the master or others? As for his net worth, you don't have to worry, the group of martial arts families in Hangzhou can't even beat Zhao Bi, let alone Meng Jiu, on the contrary. ”
After smiling, Chun Tao continued, "On the contrary, you should worry about those families of Hangzhou people, my uncle has so many bad ideas, and he will definitely find ways to use Meng Jiu to teach those people a lesson." ”
After listening to Chun Tao's words, Shen Xiaoqing felt that it made sense, so he was relieved.
"Chun Tao, I'm a little hungry. She said suddenly.
"Miss is happy to hear the news of her uncle, so she has a big appetite?" Chun Tao said with a smile.
"Chun Tao, you are talking nonsense again, and if you talk nonsense again, you will be punished for kneeling. ”
Chun Tao covered her mouth and smiled more happily, and then said: "Miss, you dare to contradict the master and run away from home now, you were not like this before, it seems that you are greatly influenced by your uncle." ”
"Chun Tao," Shen Xiaoqing put down the chopsticks he had just picked up, "I won't eat it, you can take it away." ”
"Okay, miss, I'm not kidding you. You eat more, don't get thinner, lest your uncle blame Chun Tao for not taking good care of you. ”
"Chun Tao!" Shen Xiaoqing slapped Chun Tao's ass with his hand.
......
Since arriving at the Ye family, Ye Fei, Meng Jiu and Han Yulin have been busy outside in the past three days, buying belongings, cleaning and renovating.
Under the recommendation of the head of Hongye Village, Ye Fei hired more than a dozen villagers to help in the Ye family, and the villagers came to the house to report two days ago, and they have made great efforts in the past two days.
The furniture and some old things that were still valuable, Ye Fei asked the villagers to move them;
As for the gold, silver, jewelry, silver tickets and other valuables left by Ye Zhao's family, of course Ye Fei would not return them again, he divided the money into three parts, the big head was given to Hongye Village, and the other two were given to Han Yulin and Meng Jiu.
And what he was willing to return to Ye Zhao's family was only some clothes, house deeds, land deeds, and a few worthless blades.
In the evening, the village chief led the villagers over, and brought a goat, a few chickens, and a basket of fish, saying that it was to thank Ye Fei for sending money to the village and solving the livelihood of several villagers.
So a group of people slaughtered chickens and sheep, and prepared a dinner party in the courtyard with laughter and laughter.
For Ye Fei, it can be regarded as a banquet for everyone to eat. The only regret is that Shen Xiaoqing, who is his mother, is not here.
However, thinking that he would reconcile with her in another year, he felt that Shen Xiaoqing was not necessary, and it would be more suitable to replace it with Qin Shuyue and Qiu Sang.
But just when everyone was celebrating, the He family sent someone over.
