The Double / Marriage of the Di Daughter Part 1

☆ Chapter 094 Xihua Tower

Unlike the entanglement of the Ye family, Jiang Li lived a much easier life. At least in the eyes of the Ye family's servants, the second young lady Jiang had no discomfort at all, as if it was not her first time living in the Ye family. The maids of the Ye family who were originally assigned to serve Jiang Li had long known about the past deeds of the second young lady Jiang. Many years ago, she despised her maternal family, which was from a merchant family. Later, she killed her stepbrother and was forced to practice in the temple.

They thought they would meet a spoiled young lady who was vicious and difficult to serve, but who knew that the visitor was so easy to deal with. She did not make any excessive requests. As long as Tong'er and Bai Xue could do it, Jiang Li would not bother the servants of the Ye family. If Jiang Li was a guest visiting the Ye family, then this guest must be the easiest one to serve.

The maids of the Ye family were all relieved. After a few days, they gradually became familiar with Tong'er and Bai Xue. Tong'er was smart and often gave some snacks to the maids. Bai Xue was born in the farmland and was very approachable. The maids gradually became bolder and talked about some interesting things with Tong'er and Bai Xue.

However, even so, after five or six days, the Ye family still did not take the initiative to arrange for Jiang Li to meet with Old Madam Ye.

When Tong'er talked about this with Jiang Li, she was quite indignant and said, "What does the Ye family mean? They said that the girl would see the Old Madam, but they didn't say a word these days. It's really worrying."

The Ye family didn't take the initiative to ask, and Jiang Li didn't ask.

"You are so close with those maids, didn't you ask anything?" Jiang Li asked with a smile. Compared with Tong'er, she was not in a hurry about this. She was not the real Miss Jiang, and Old Madam Ye was her grandmother in name, but when it came to feelings, it was really not that deep. It would be too deliberate to pretend to be obsessed with her. Now that she has come to Xiangyang and moved into the Ye family, she has succeeded in the first step and it has been very smooth.

Tong'er shook her head: "I heard from the maids in the yard that the Old Madam is not in good health. It was difficult for her to get out of bed a few years ago. The doctor said she needed to rest." 

When she said this, she sighed and said, "Maybe it's not the fault of the Ye family. If the Old Madam really can't stand the stimulation, it's really not the time for the girl to meet the Old Madam." 

She remembered something and said, "I heard that the Old Madam is not in good health. The third master Ye who is traveling outside is also rushing to Xiangyang these days. He will arrive in the next few days."

Old Madam Ye has three sons and one daughter. Ye Minghui is the first, and Ye Mingxuan is the second. This third master Ye, Ye Mingyu, was born at the same time as Ye Zhenzhen. Ye Zhenzhen is simple and honest, but Ye Mingyu has never been a law-abiding person since he was a child. 

In his early years, he liked to travel around the country as a knight. After hitting a snag in the rivers and lakes, he decided to go home to do business. But even in business, Ye Mingyu insisted on being unique. Every year, he followed the sea caravan out on the ship, went to remote foreign towns along the way, spent money to buy some strange little things, and then resold them back.

Sometimes he could find good things, but more often, Ye Mingyu's caravan could not make much money from the things it found. Fortunately, the Ye family was large and powerful, and the first and second masters of the Ye family supported the family business, which allowed him to do whatever he wanted.

This time, probably because Old Madam Ye was really in poor health, Ye Mingyu returned to Xiangyang from the sea caravan to visit his mother before the end of the year.
