Chapter 192: The Wine Shop Cannot Be Sold
Jiang Yinli pondered for a moment and said, "Mother, I will send someone to investigate. But before that, should we calm her down first?"
Lu Yundi nodded in agreement: "You are right, we can't let things get any worse. Hongying, go and make arrangements for Ye Wanxue to move into the guest room first and take good care of her."
Hongying took the order and left. After a while, she came back and said, "Madam, everything has been arranged."
At this time, Ye Wanxue's mood had calmed down a lot. She looked at Lu Yundi with a hint of gratitude in her eyes.
"Madam, thank you." Ye Wanxue said softly.
Lu Yundi smiled slightly: "You're welcome, as long as you tell the truth, we will help you."
Ye Wanxue bit her lower lip and said hesitantly, "Actually, I am not from the Ye family. I am an orphan, adopted by a couple named Ye, but they are not my biological parents."
Lu Yundi and Jiang Yinli looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes. They didn't expect that Ye Wanxue was not from the Ye family.
"Then why did you appear in our house?" Jiang Yinli asked.
Ye Wanxue lowered her head, her voice trembling a little: "That day, I passed by the Zhenxing Marquis Mansion and happened to see someone arguing. I walked over out of curiosity, but I didn't expect to be involved in this dispute."
Lu Yundi gently patted Ye Wanxue's hand and said, "In that case, you can stay in the mansion with peace of mind. We will help you find out the truth."
……
One day, Hongying was accompanying Ye Wanxue in the guest room when suddenly, a servant ran in hurriedly.
"Madam, something bad has happened! Someone is making trouble outside, saying that Ye Wanxue is their daughter and they want to take her back!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yundi immediately rushed to the door with Jiang Yinli and Hongying. They saw a group of people gathered there, making loud noises.
"Get out of the way! She is our daughter, we want to take her back!" A middle-aged man waved the post in his hand and shouted loudly.
Lu Yundi frowned and said, "Brother, may I ask if you have any evidence to prove that Ye Wanxue is your daughter?"
The man's eyes widened and he said, "Evidence? She has our family's birthmark on her body. It's impossible to fake it!"
Lu Yundi smiled slightly: "In that case, please wait a moment, we will go in and ask Ye Wanxue to see if she is willing to go back with you."
The man nodded, and Lu Yundi led everyone back to the guest room. Ye Wanxue looked at the man, with a hint of confusion in her eyes.
"Brother, are you really my biological father?" Ye Wanxue asked cautiously.
The man excitedly held Ye Wanxue's hand: "Of course! I've been looking for you, but I didn't expect you to be here!"
A hint of joy flashed across Ye Wanxue's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure: "In that case, please take me to see the situation at your home. I want to confirm it."
The man agreed and left Zhenxing Marquis Mansion with Ye Wanxue. Lu Yundi and others watched them leave with deep emotion.
Hongying looked at Lu Yundi and said, "Madam, do you think Ye Wanxue will come back?"
Lu Yundi shook her head gently: "I don't know. But whether she comes back or not, we must respect her choice. Hongying, you must remember that life is full of different situations. Learn to understand and tolerate."
Hongying nodded, a hint of determination flashing in her eyes.
……
When Jiang Jilian said that he was about to sell the wine shop, Jiang Yuqi couldn't help but shout: "Brother, the wine shop is mine!"
Jiang Jilian's eyes suddenly became deep, and he looked at his sister Jiang Yuqi, with a complex emotion flashing in his eyes. He didn't expect that his sister, who had always been gentle and virtuous, would be so obsessed with the wine shop.
"Yuqi, do you know what you are saying?" Jiang Jilian's tone was calm, but every word was powerful.
Jiang Yuqi bit her lip tightly, with a determined light flashing in her eyes: "I know, big brother. I founded that wine shop with my own hands, and I poured my hard work into every brick and tile. I will not allow anyone to sell it."
Jiang Jilian took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
"Yuqi, you know that the wine shop business is not always smooth sailing. Now, the expenses in the mansion are increasing, and we have to make some sacrifices." Jiang Jilian tried to make his sister understand.
Jiang Yuqi's eyes flashed with hesitation, but she quickly said firmly: "I can inject more funds into the wine shop. As long as I can keep it, I am willing to pay everything."
Jiang Jilian looked at his sister and felt a warm feeling in his heart.
"Yuqi, do you know what this means? You will have to take on more responsibilities for the wine shop and may face more difficulties and challenges." Jiang Jilian said in a serious tone.
Jiang Yuqi smiled slightly, her eyes full of confidence: "I understand, big brother. I am willing to take on all of this. As long as I can keep the wine shop, I am willing."
Jiang Jilian was silent for a moment, and finally nodded: "Since you insist so much, I will no longer object. However, you must promise me that you will run the business more carefully and not let the wine shop have any mistakes."
Jiang Yuqi nodded excitedly, her elder brother agreed to her request.
At night, Jiang Jilian sat alone in his study, looking at the moonlight outside the window, with a lot of thoughts in his mind. He suddenly remembered his father's last words before his death, asking him to take good care of the family and his sister.
He picked up a pen and began to write letters to generals far away in the frontier, asking if there were suitable businesses to invest in so as to gain more wealth for the Jiang family.
Just then, Jiang Yuqi gently pushed the door open. Looking at her brother's focused expression, she felt a warm feeling in her heart.
"Brother, are you writing a letter?" Jiang Yuqi asked softly.
Jiang Jilian raised his head, looked at his sister, and smiled slightly: "Yes, I am writing to the generals far away to see if there is a suitable business to invest in."
A hint of gratitude flashed in Jiang Yuqi's eyes.
"Brother, thank you. I will work harder to run the wine shop and make it the pride of our family." Jiang Yuqi's voice was firm and powerful.
"Yuqi, I believe you." Jiang Jilian patted his sister's shoulder gently, his eyes full of expectation.
……
Jiang Yuqi was shocked. "Brother, my sister-in-law is backed by the Lu family, the richest family in Beijing. She can easily spend thousands of taels. Why do you want money from me?"
Jiang Jilian smiled slightly, with a hint of teasing in his eyes, and said slowly: "I know, but this is what I borrowed from you, brother, so the meaning is different. Besides, although several thousand taels is a lot, it can only play its value if it is used where it should be used."
Jiang Yuqi frowned, obviously puzzled by her brother's behavior, but still said patiently: "Well, since you said so, I will go back and ask the servants to prepare. But, brother, are you really sure this is the right thing to do?"
At this time, Lu Yundi walked in. She was wearing a light blue dress and a white jade hairpin in her hair, looking gentle and elegant. Seeing this, she smiled and said, "Yuqi, your elder brother is testing your financial management ability. However, since you are willing to lend it, I agree."
Jiang Jilian looked at his wife, his eyes full of gratitude, and said, "Yun Di, you are always so sensible."
