Rebirth on the wedding night, being doted on by the scumbag elder brother

"Okay." Su nodded in agreement and held her hand tightly, with the love in her eyes evident.

……

Ye Yunzi found Zhang Bo, a good man in the outer courtyard. He was a staunch supporter of her mother, Su. Because he had received favors from Su, he was extremely loyal and looked honest and simple.

"Uncle Zhang, I need your help. Go to various gambling houses and fireworks venues and find a man named Ye Guang. When you find him, don't make it public. Come back and inform me first. Don't let anyone know."

"As you command, young lady." Zhang Bo agreed and called his son Zhang Shan to carry out the task.

Zhang Shan is usually just an errand boy, so he won't attract attention if he leaves the house.

Yu Shu looked at the young lady in confusion. Why was she looking for someone named "Ye Guang" in the gambling house? Who was this person?

The next day, Zhang Bo came to report that he had found Ye Guang in a gambling house on West Street. This man was notorious for eating, drinking, whoring and gambling. The people in the gambling house knew him well, so it was easy to find out about him.

Ye Yunzi held the book in her hand and nodded softly.

"Miss, who exactly is he?" Yu Shu could no longer bear it and finally couldn't help asking.

"Ye Guang... He is the third aunt's biological brother." Ye Yunzi said calmly, with no emotion on her face.

"What? The Third Aunt has a younger brother?" Yu Shu's eyes widened. This was the first time she had heard of this, and the brother was a scum who only knew how to whore and gamble.

When the third concubine married into the mansion, she only said that her family was poor, her father was a poor scholar, and her family background was as clean as a blank sheet of paper. But now it seems that with the notorious Ye Guang here, her innocence is probably compromised, and everything is hidden.

Ye Yunzi's eyes flashed, cold as ice. In fact, she had heard about this before. In her previous life, Ye Guang had come to the Ye Mansion several times to ask the Third Aunt for money.

The Third Aunt was afraid that this matter would become known to everyone, so she quickly stuffed some silver into his hand and told him not to set foot in the Ye Mansion again.

But Ye Guang was a tough guy. When he ran away from the Ye Mansion, he threatened to reveal everything to the Third Aunt if she didn't give him money.

At that time, the Third Aunt had already taken control of the financial power of the Ye Mansion's backyard and secretly transferred a lot of money. Although Ye Yunzi found out, she didn't make it public. Even if she did, no one would believe it.

……

In the casino.

A shriveled man weighed the cloth bag in his hand, which was filled with scattered silver and copper coins, making a clinking sound. His eyes were fixed on the dice holder on the table.

"Big...big..."

He roared softly, his eyes were bloodshot and his face was full of greed.

"Open!" The strong man suddenly opened the dice tube, "One, two, six, small!"

When the dice roll was opened, some people smiled, while others looked sad. The shriveled man slammed his fist on the table, "Damn it, I lost again. I'm so unlucky today!"

"Would you like to play another round? Maybe your luck will change in the next round?"

A man came up to Ye Guang, grinned and encouraged him.

Ye Guang clenched his purse tightly and steeled his heart, "Okay! Let's play another round. I will not believe in evil and I must win!" As he said that, he bet all his money on "big".

The sound of dice shaking.

Ye Guang's heart beat faster and he stared at the dice tube intently.

Bang! The dice roll fell to the ground, and when it was opened, "Two, three, three, still small!"

Ye Guang's eyes widened, he was completely stunned, his luck today was extremely bad, he didn't even win a single bet, and he lost all his money. These were originally used to pay off debts, but when he passed by the casino, he couldn't resist the urge to bet, so he placed a few bets.

Now that I have no money left, how can I pay off my debts?

He thought about finding a place to hide and seek for three days and three nights, waiting for the debt collectors to lose their way, and then coming out to find a way to get the money.

Just as Ye Guang was thinking about it, the guy next to him said, "Look at your luck today, I'm afraid you've lost everything."

"What's it got to do with you?" Ye Guang spat. If it weren't for this guy's nonsense, he would definitely not have made the last bet and would not have lost everything.

"How about this, brother, I'll buy you a couple of drinks as an apology."

"Drink?" Ye Guang was stunned for a moment. Besides being a gambler, he also loved drinking, so he readily agreed. The two hit it off and walked straight to the restaurant. As they walked and talked, they became more and more familiar with each other, and their vigilance also relaxed.

"Hey man, where do you usually hang out?"

"Oh, I work as a handyman in the outer courtyard of the Ye Mansion."

"The Ye Mansion...that's a wealthy family!" Ye Guang took a sip of wine and said with emotion.

"I'm just a janitor, and I don't get paid much." At this point, the fellow paused and continued, "This money is the bonus my master gave me when he took in a new concubine a few days ago!"

"Really?"

"That aunt's surname is also Ye, the same as yours." said the buddy.

Ye Guang pondered for a while and his expression changed slightly.

"Third Aunt..." He muttered, and suddenly burst into laughter as if he remembered something. "Brother, your words have enlightened me! When I get the silver, I will treat you to a good drink some other day!"

After saying that, Ye Guang said goodbye in a hurry.

The guy looked at Ye Guangyuan's leaving figure, the cynicism on his face disappeared, and his expression became serious.

He returned to the Ye Mansion and rushed to Zijin Courtyard to report.

"I have completed what the young lady asked me to do." Zhang Shan bowed his head and spoke respectfully.

Ye Yunzi waved her hand, and Yu Shu stepped forward and handed him a small bag of silver, saying, "This is a reward for you. You have to know what to say and what not to say."

"Yes Yes!"

Zhang Shan nodded his head rapidly, "Miss, if you have any instructions in the future, just come to me and I will definitely do it!"

Ye Yunzi sneered. Even if she didn't make any special move next, Third Aunt would lose her composure. She never dreamed that Ye Guang would come to her.

"Next, you have to keep an eye on the third room and see who will go to the third aunt."

"I understand." Yu Shu nodded in agreement.

Ye Yunzi turned around and prepared to go back to her room, but she stopped after taking two steps. She hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's go to the warehouse first."

……

In the Ye Mansion's warehouse, in addition to the public accounts, the Su family also has a private treasury.

When Su married into the Ye Mansion, she brought with her a large dowry. Those precious things were carefully placed in the storeroom. The door was usually locked and the key was kept by Madam Zhao.

A few days ago, Nanny Zhao handed the key to Yu Shu.

Yu Shu unlocked the warehouse and pushed open the door, only to see that the treasures in the boxes were neatly arranged and well maintained.

Ye Yunzi casually opened a box, which was filled with corals, agates, and precious smoky blue vases, each of which was priceless.

"Find a few people tomorrow to move all these things away."

"Miss, where are you moving to?" Yu Shu was stunned for a moment, "Are you moving back to the Su Mansion?"

Move back to the Su Mansion...

Ye Yunzi lowered her head in thought. Moving the things back to the Su Mansion at this time would be tantamount to telling Ye Chongde that they were up to something, and this must not be discovered by him.

She was silent for a while. "We just bought a yard in the suburbs and moved everyone there."
