Chapter 27: Give him two slaps in the face!

"Girl?" The old man who opened the door couldn't help but open his eyes wide when he saw Ye Qiongying. After confirming that it was her, he quickly opened the door and ran out, "Girl, what's wrong with you..."

While he was talking, he saw a packed convoy behind him.

This scene doesn't look like a normal trip back to my parents' home.

The old man got anxious on the spot:

"Miss, what's going on? Did the Loyal and Brave Marquis' Mansion bully you? Just wait, I'll find someone to help..."

"Uncle Ye!" When Ye Qiongying saw him, her eyes turned red. The old man was more certain that his daughter was bullied, but Ye Qiongying stopped him and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I will tell you slowly when we get back home. Uncle Ye, are grandmother and little aunt here?"

"Of course she is," Uncle Ye said quickly, "The old lady is almost fully recovered, but she just keeps thinking about you. Madam Hua still stays in the Buddhist temple all day, and only occasionally brings her cousin to sit with the old lady. She basically doesn't interact with outsiders."

Uncle Ye walked in and called out, and soon a group of tall and strong young men filed out, saluted Ye Qiongying and shouted:

"Welcome back home, young lady!"

Ye Qiongying had felt somewhat embarrassed facing such scenes before, but now, she felt warm in her heart. She agreed with a smile, letting them move the luggage while she walked inside with Wenping and Uncle Ye while chatting.

Uncle Ye lost both his parents when he was young and later became a refugee. He was picked up and raised by Mr. Ye who was working away from home. In the end, he loyally followed Ye Qiongying's father and served as his tutor.

After Ye Qiongying's father went to the border town, he deliberately left his most trusted uncle Ye in his house as a housekeeper to help him look after the rear.

Although he was just a housekeeper, no one ever treated him as a slave. It could be said that he watched Ye Qiongying grow up. Uncle Ye, who never thought of starting a family, simply treated Ye Qiongying as his own daughter and loved her dearly.

He also trusts the Ye family as if they were blood relatives.

After hearing the news of the death of Ye Qiongying's biological father and brother, Uncle Ye's hair turned white overnight. The old lady was seriously ill and dying, and Mrs. Hua was divorced and brought her daughter back, which made Uncle Ye worry so much that he suddenly looked old.

He is obviously about the same age as Ye Qiongying's father, but now he looks like an old man.

After entering the mansion, Ye Qiongying looked at the familiar scenery around her, and the tears in the corners of her eyes finally fell uncontrollably.

Compared to that dirty marquis's mansion, this is the home she longs for!

Seeing her like this, Uncle Ye didn't ask any more questions, but he added a few words to Yin Xu in his heart.

It must be the Marquis' Mansion that has wronged the girl. The Ye family will take revenge and we must get back at them!

When they entered the house, they found that Old Madam Ye was already sitting on a chair, next to her was Madam Hua, who was dressed in a plain robe, and her daughter Ye Lu.

The old lady seemed to be in pretty good health, much better than when she was on the verge of death three years ago when the accident happened in her family.

Mrs. Hua had a plain face and wore a string of fragrant wood beads on her wrist. Apart from that, she did not have any jewelry on her body. Even her black hair was wrapped in a cloth hat. She really looked like a practicing nun.

But the look in her eyes when she looked at me was warm and friendly, not as indifferent as her outfit might suggest.

Ye Lu, who was sitting closely next to Mrs. Hua, looked only five or six years old, with a round little face and black eyes.

The little girl's original surname was Liu, but after being brought back to the Ye family by her mother, she changed her surname to Ye.

The Liu family's behavior was not decent in the first place. Moreover, Ye Lu was just a girl, while their new wife gave birth to a boy not long after they got married. So they turned a blind eye to the change of surname and pretended not to know anything.

Ye Lu was only two years old when she returned to the Ye family, and not long after she came back, Ye Qiongying had already married into the Marquis's Mansion.

During these three years, because of Yin Xu, Ye Qiongying had little contact with her mother's family.

Later on, because I was too busy, I rarely had the opportunity to come back in person.

Just knowing that we are safe is enough.

Therefore, Ye Lu was very unfamiliar with Ye Qiongying.

But perhaps it was the blood connection between relatives, or perhaps it was Mrs. Hua's early teachings, so when Ye Lu looked at Ye Qiongying, the strange older sister, she was not afraid. Instead, she was curious and a little shy. She snuggled up to her mother and blinked her big eyes at this beautiful older sister.

When Ye Qiongying looked over, the little girl blushed and hid behind her mother's arm. However, she could not help but lift up Mrs. Hua's arm and continued to secretly look at her sister through the gap.

This made Ye Qiongying's originally sad mood cheerful again, and she couldn't help but smile.

so good!

It feels so good to be reborn!

This little girl who died in vain in her previous life is still alive and well now.

When Old Madam Ye saw her granddaughter suddenly come back, she almost couldn't wait to stand up and check if Ye Qiongying was okay and not bullied.

Ye Qiongying hurried forward to support the old lady and asked her to sit down.

Mrs. Hua also smiled and comforted her:

"Mother, don't worry. How can a girl from the Ye family be bullied? If the Marquis' Mansion really dares to attack Qiongying, we will bring people to attack them! But you have to be careful and don't let Qiongying worry."

The old lady muttered a few words:

"That sounds nice, but who was bullied in the first place? Why don't you let us get back at them?"

Mrs. Hua was not shy about being divorced. She laughed, which was totally inconsistent with her plain dress:

"I just don't want to stay in that filthy place. If I can leave sooner after being divorced, then so be it. Anyway, I'm not like other women who are afraid of being disliked by their families and bringing bad reputation to the family. Why should they treat me, a precious girl, like a pearl?"

I practice at home only because my father, brothers, and nephews are in trouble, and I pray for them and accumulate blessings for them. By the way, it can also help me avoid those people who propose marriage.

The Ye family's wealth is such that even if she is divorced and sent home, it is not impossible for her to remarry.

It’s just not as good as it was when the family was at its peak.

But Mrs. Hua didn't want to get married again. She already had a well-behaved daughter, and her old mother at home also needed someone to take care of her. She felt it was fine for her to stay at home.

Even if her brother and sister-in-law were still alive, Mrs. Hua believed that her family would never force her to leave for any reason of face or benefit.

"You always have something to say," the old lady shook her head, took Ye Qiongying's hand, and asked her to sit next to her. "Qiongying, come and tell grandma honestly, did the Marquis' Mansion bully you?"

Uncle Ye, who was standing aside, said loudly:

"Don't be afraid, young lady. We have many young men in our mansion. How can we be afraid of the loyal and brave man? If he dares to lay a hand on you, I, Old Ye, will slap him twice!"

"A-choo!" In the marquis's mansion, Yin Xu, who had actually been slapped in the face, sneezed and pulled the wound on his face, causing him to feel so much pain that a layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

But when he thought of the news he had just heard, Yin Xu couldn't help but smile.
