When Ye Minghui and Ye Mingxuan saw Ye Mingyu, they were both a little surprised. Ye Minghui said, "Why didn't you tell me in advance that you were back?"
"I'm in a hurry to come back," Ye Mingyu lied without changing his face, "I rode so fast that I didn't even drink a few sips of water on the way, so how could I have time to tell you."
If the two knew that Ye Mingyu had come back three days ago and just made a fuss in Xihua Tower for three days, not sure how they would react.
"Why did you come back just now?" Ye Mingyu asked, "It's dark, and there's no one in the mansion."
"We..." Ye Mingxuan was about to answer, but he saw Jiang Li sitting opposite Ye Mingyu, and swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
Jiang Li understood what they said, and they had to be on guard against her as an ‘outsider’, but it didn't matter. Jiang Li guessed that what they were going to talk about was the business of the Ye family. Now she knew what was going on with the troubles in the business of the Ye family. She stood up and said with a smile: "Uncle Mingyu, you guys chat, I'm going back to the room."
Ye Mingyu smiled and said: "Okay."
Seeing that Ye Mingyu and Jiang Li seemed to be quite close, Ye Minghui and Ye Mingxuan looked strange.
After Jiang Li left, Ye Mingxuan and Ye Minghui sat down beside Ye Mingyu. Before they could speak, Ye Mingyu spoke first. He said, "Big brother, second brother, you are really too much to a little girl. How can this be? She came back specially to see her grandmother, but you didn't let her see her. You were still on guard against others when talked about something. Even I can see how fragile the little girl is. I'm afraid you have seen it a long time ago and she is sad, but she was just silent and still smile. I say you are so old, why do you still bully a little girl?"
Ye Mingxuan was so angry about this that he couldn't catch his breath. He said, "We bullied her? Which eye of yours saw us bullying her?"
"I saw it with both eyes!" Ye Mingyu pointed to his eyes, "Even if she didn't see anyone, Ah Li understood and took the initiative to go back to the room. It's just that the little girl is soft-hearted. If it were me, I would have made a scene long ago."
"Make a scene, make a scene," Ye Mingxuan said, "Make a scene as soon as possible. You think you are still a young man in his teens, but you don't even look at how old you are. This sentence should be applied to yourself!"
"Have you talked to her?" Ye Minghui asked steadily.
"I have," Ye Mingyu said, "Why?"
"What do you think of her?"
"Good!" Ye Mingyu slapped his thigh, "I think A Li is not an ordinary official lady. You should learn from her knowledge and speaking skills. I brought back a kaleidoscope from the fleet. If it were me, any of you would not know what it is or how to use it, but she knows! She can use it! She is the only one who knows the peacock feathers I found. The most important thing is that this girl is righteous! Unlike some girls, who are old and petty."
"Justice?" Ye Mingxuan asked, "Why do you say she is just? What did she hide for you?"
Ye Mingyu cursed in his heart that Ye Mingxuan was really cunning, and he heard it all. Ye Mingyu said Jiang Li was just because Jiang Li didn't tell him that he had returned to Xiangyang a long time ago, and didn't mean to tell him. This is not just justice, this is too justice!
Ye Mingyu cleared his throat twice and covered up, "Nothing, by the way, you haven't told me where you went, why is there no one in the mansion?"
The two brothers looked at each other, and Ye Minghui said, "Something happened in Lizheng Hall, we went to Lizheng Hall."
