He discovered that it was a kind of poison, not the common one sold on the market, but a real mixture of various poisonous herbs carefully prepared. There was only one bottle of this poison in the world, and there was no antidote.

There is an ingredient in the poison called Jade Poison Bamboo, which grows in deep mountains and forests. It is extremely rare and very few people can recognize it.

He was able to identify them under the guidance of his master. He did not expect that this woman could recognize so many herbs at such a young age. Her skills were extraordinary.

"No wonder..." the man whispered, "Only this woman can make you so obsessed."

"By the way, did you go to the theater today?" The man changed the subject and shook his head with some regret. "Alas, the play being performed today was 'Borrowing the East Wind'. I wanted to go, but the white tuckahoe mushroom only grows in heavy rain. It withers once the rain stops..."

There were snow-white mushrooms in the basket, which were obviously freshly picked.

If Ye Yunzi was present, she would definitely recognize him. He is the miracle doctor Tao Qiming.

Doctor Tao and Shen Siyan met at Nanyang Pass and became close friends. Later, Shen Siyan invited him to the capital and bought a house, which he named "Qingfeng Pavilion".

He has a free and easy personality and does not want to be bound by anything. He believes that his stay in the capital is only temporary and he may leave at any time.

Shen Siyan sighed, "She seems to like listening to opera too..."

If Ye Yunzi knew that the Doctor Tao she had been looking for was in Qingfeng Pavilion, and that the person who was so far away was actually so close, she would probably feel extremely lost.

……

Ye Mansion.

Yu Shu hurried to Ye Yunzi's door and knocked gently.

"Please come in."

Ye Yunzi looked up and saw Yu Shu's excited face. She couldn't wait to say, "Miss, someone really came to visit us! He's waiting at the back door now and he must see the Third Aunt."

"Zhang Shan recognized the man as Ye Guang at first sight and came to report to us."

Ye Yunzi heard this, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a smile. Ye Guang really came to see the third aunt. After only two days, he couldn't help but want to get some money from the third aunt.

"Miss, what should we do now?"

"Let him be and don't say anything." Ye Yunzi said calmly.

The Third Aunt seems innocent on the surface, but actually she has a brother who is addicted to gambling. If Ye Chongde knew about this, he would definitely feel uncomfortable.

But this is not enough.

If you want to catch big fish, you have to wait patiently and let the fish slowly take the bait.

On the other side, Wenmayuan was not so peaceful. When the third aunt heard someone looking for her, her eyes widened and she suddenly sat up from the couch.

"Who did you say you were?"

"The man claims to be Ye Guang..." As the maid spoke, she glanced at the Third Aunt. The Third Aunt also had the surname Ye. Was there any connection between the two?

The third aunt's face turned pale instantly, and she slammed the table fiercely, "Where is this place? How dare he barge in casually!"

The house was silent and the atmosphere was eerie.

The third aunt was breathing heavily, her chest heaving, and her face looked frighteningly ugly.

"What about people?"

"At the back door." The maid answered with her head down.

The Third Aunt stood up and walked quickly towards the door. Suddenly she stopped, as if she remembered something, and ordered in a cold voice: "Call Ziyi over!"

"I'll do it right away." The maid turned and left. Not long after, Zi Yi hurried over.

The third aunt whispered a few words, Zi Yi nodded in agreement, and quickly turned and left.

"mother."

Ye Ziru had been eavesdropping outside the door. As soon as Ziyi left, she rushed in impatiently. "Mom! What if Dad finds out about what happened outside?"

She was in a state of confusion. When her father found them, they lied that their family had fallen on hard times and that they lived a hard life, relying on each other. But now Ye Guang, the good-for-nothing uncle, suddenly appeared.

Her uncle spent his days drinking, whoring and gambling, and had a terrible reputation. She was eager to draw a clear line between herself and him.

In the past, he transferred the land deed privately and drove them out of the house, breaking off all ties with them. Why did he have the audacity to come to the Ye Mansion to look for them now?

They are both uncles, why is there such a big difference between them?

Ye Ziru thought of Ye Yunzi's uncle, who was handsome, imposing, and domineering in protecting them. In contrast, her own uncle was simply unbearable to look at.

"Dad values ​​family tradition the most. If he knew about my uncle's existence, he would definitely not be happy. Besides... we lied to Dad."

Ye Chongde hated it most when people kept secrets from him. If he knew they were lying, he would be furious and the consequences would be disastrous.

They had moved here with great difficulty, and their situation was already miserable enough.

If Ye Chongde is angered again, the status of the Ye family that he has fought so hard for will be gone.

The third concubine gritted her teeth secretly, her face gloomy. She did not expect that at this critical moment, Ye Guang would show up and blatantly ask her for money.

"This matter must not be leaked."

"Mom, what should we do?"

"Give him the money if he wants it. First, shut him up. Then..." Third Aunt frowned, "Find a chance to get rid of him. Do it secretly and don't let anyone find out."

Ye Ziru nodded in agreement, with a cold look in her eyes.

Scoundrels like Ye Guang will only drag them down, so it would be best to get rid of them as soon as possible.

……

At the back door of the Ye Mansion, Ye Guang was waiting anxiously outside the door. Looking at the magnificent gate of the Ye Mansion, he couldn't help but smile triumphantly, his face full of smugness.

"Tsk tsk, that woman actually entered the Ye Mansion. If one person succeeds, the whole family will benefit. I, Ye Guang, will also have a good life. I am her biological brother. If she doesn't give me money, I will confront Master Ye face to face..."

Ye Guang raised his eyebrows and snorted twice.

After an unknown amount of time, the back door creaked open a crack, and a maid came out. When she saw Ye Guang, her face became serious.

"Are you Ye Guang, here to look for the Third Aunt?"

"Yes, it's me!" Ye Guang nodded and bowed, then moved closer and took a closer look. He found that the maids in wealthy families were indeed different, with smooth and tender skin.

Zi Yi looked around to make sure that no one was around, then took out a bag from his sleeve and handed it to Ye Guang, "Don't come to the Ye Mansion again. This is not a place for people like you to come."

She conveyed Third Aunt's words coldly.

Ye Guang stared at the bag, knowing that it was filled with heavy silver, and reached out to take it. While taking the bag, he touched Zi Yi's smooth little hand and laughed twice.

Zi Yi got goosebumps all over her body and felt nauseous, "Get out of here now and don't show up at Ye Mansion again!"

The door of the Ye Mansion slammed shut. Ye Guang looked up at the Ye Mansion, feeling unsatisfied.

Money comes too easily.

That woman wants to distance herself from him? No way. He finally got hold of the golden thigh, how could he give up easily? There is still a long way to go in the future.

The Ye family is so wealthy and prominent, how could the aunt's money be small?

He sneered and turned to leave.

"Brother Ye!" Suddenly, someone called him. Ye Guang turned around and saw that it was Zhang Shan. "Brother Ye, is it really you? I thought I was seeing things!"

Ye Guang was in a good mood and walked over with his arm around Zhang Shan's shoulder.

"Brother, come here, let me treat you to a drink. Thanks to your reminder, I was able to get this money..." Ye Guang shook the bag, and the sound of broken silver colliding came from it.
