After Ye Tianji made it clear, the two of them had been sent to the gate of the villa.Ye Ying didn't say why he was late, but Ye Tianji felt that the atmosphere in the villa was not right as soon as he followed Ye Ying into the gate of the villa.

Ye Ying is not a talkative person, so Ye Tianji later found out that it was Ye Mengqiu, the owner of the villa, who lost his temper.Before he came to the villa, the owner's friend joined a sect, and because of this, he broke the friendship with the owner for decades.Now it was this person who sent a letter to the owner of the village again, without mentioning anything else, he even pointed at Ye Fan, the fifth son of the Ye family, saying that his life was bad and he needed to believe in religion to survive.Ye Fan was born not long ago, so Ye Mengqiu was naturally worried about his youngest son, and no father would be able to stand being told that.

Ye Tianji probably understood, and didn't ask further, what should he do.Ye Tianji has always been smart, and he can guess eight or nine out of ten through some trivial things, but he has never been a person who likes to gossip.But after thinking about his recent actions, he decided to change his words, saying that he is a person who doesn't like things other than gossip.

The eldest son is different.The eldest son is special.

It was rare for Ye Ying not to stand outside, but to sit back in the room.It is estimated that what happened in the mansion today is very troublesome, Ye Tianji can clearly see that he can't calm down now.

Ye Ying really couldn't calm down.Today, when his father Ye Mengqiu received the letter, he was by his side, and he read those terrifying sentences to his father.Ye Mengqiu was angry, and Ye Ying felt uncomfortable.

In addition, he received a letter from Ye Tianji, saying that Haitang was in danger, and he seemed extremely anxious, which made it even more difficult for him to calm down. Therefore, he did not think about the way of swords at all throughout the day, just as the eldest son who tried his best to comfort his father, An anxious elder brother and an Ying elder brother who couldn't get away to go to Yangzhou City lived.

When Ye Tianji entered the room, he bowed first, "My lord, Tianji knows his mistake."

"Is she okay?"

"It's Tianji's recklessness, Mrs. Haitang is well."

That's good.

Ye Tianji briefly explained that the girl was cheated and that Haitang caught the thief. Ye Ying did not express his opinion, but Ye Tianji took a peek at him—sitting sideways, with his right arm on the table, his left leg bent, and his left arm resting on his lap, as if Thinking about something, expressionless.Feeling that Ye Ying doesn't need to be disturbed by anyone now, Ye Tianji quietly exited, closed the door behind him, and stood outside the door holding a sword under the tree, following Ye Ying's example, looking at the forest in a trance.

He knew that Ye Ying was a serious person when he came to the villa on the first day, but only after he followed him to the town did he know that Ye Ying often didn't say anything and had no expression on his face, but he already had cares in his heart.And when it comes to the matter of Mrs. Haitang, he will step down from the altar and become an ordinary person who can get close.

"Such an eldest son, isn't it very good?"

That's why I became such a gossip!I see!

Ye Ying was sitting in the room, he knew that Ye Tianji was standing outside and guarding.It's not very close, but instead of going back to the villa, he stayed in Jianzhong.

That night, Ye Ying had a dream.

He dreamed that before Ye Meng and Ye Fan were born, when Ye Hui and Ye Wei were only a few years old, the three brothers were playing in the yard, and for some reason Hai Tang, who was eleven or twelve years old, was also playing with them.At that time, I didn't like to talk much, Ye Hui was more lively, and he insisted on comparing his height with him.Ye Ying is naturally the tallest. After carving the heights for Ye Hui and Ye Wei in the corner of the yard, Ye Hui insisted on carving Ye Ying too, but she was not tall enough. In the end, it was Ye Sanqing who picked up Ye Hui and carved the height for him. .

They grew up in an instant, Ye Ying hugged the newborn Ye Fan, and the baby who hadn't opened his eyes cried loudly the moment Ye Ying took over.He was a little at a loss, but a vicious voice floated from the sky and kept repeating: "Your brother's life is not good, he will die soon... Your daughter's life is not good, she will die sooner or later..."

He opened his eyes suddenly, and the sky was dim.

After changing clothes and getting up to wash, he pushed open the door, but Ye Tianji was not there.Also, if he hadn't gotten up at this time in the past, Ye Tianji would naturally not be there either.He took the sword, went to the villa, and met Ye Tianji who was yawning and walking towards the sword mound with a food box.After Ye Tianji asked Ann, he followed Ye Ying. Ye Ying walked to the villa and went straight to the room of the fifth younger brother Ye Fan.

In the early morning, the sun was just right, and the babbling child saw his brother who hadn't seen him for a long time, and seemed to see something new. He grabbed Ye Ying's long ponytail hair that had slipped on his shoulders and pulled it hard.Ye Ying felt the pain, but still let him talk. The mother who finished grooming saw it and made a joke.

"Fan'er, come, call me brother." Mother coaxed Ye Fan, Ye Fan yelled for a long time, and finally called out "brother", Ye Ying always felt more cheerful.

After greeting my mother, I went to the room to have breakfast, and then went straight to the main gate of the Ye family.Ye Tianji thought that he was probably going to Yangzhou City, so he grabbed a disciple and told him that neither the eldest son nor he would come to have lunch today, and then quickly followed Ye Ying's footsteps.Old Liu, who was on the ferry, just stepped on his small boat, Ye Ying, and brought Ye Tianji out of the mansion, and greeted them warmly. After they boarded the boat, they immediately untied the rope and drove towards Yangzhou City.

First, I went to Xijiufang, but there was no one there. The neighbors said that the two military ladies had gone out to do errands early in the morning.It turned out that Haitang and Hu Ruozi were well known to everyone in Yangzhou City, and they were heroines. Although they haven't been here for a long time, they have already arrested several villains.Ye Tianji reminded: "It's better to go to the girl's house to have a look."

With Ye Ying's approval, Ye Tianji led the way out of the city, and the two came to the girl's house.Before they got close to the fence, the two heard screams: "Mother!"

This sound was heart-piercing, as if he wanted to annihilate himself.Both of them recognized that it was a girl's voice. Ye Tianji pushed open the door, and what greeted his eyes was a strange green liquid and the figure of the little girl crawling on the bed.

There were cheerful voices outside the house, and it was unknown which bride was getting married.

The girl in the room cried bitterly, but no matter how she screamed, the person she held in her arms did not respond.Ye Tianji stepped forward, checked his breath, and shook his head at Ye Ying.

"Girl, are you home? Hey, the door is open. I'm coming in—"

Ye Ying closed her eyes.The person who came was Haitang.

Before she entered the door, she saw Ye Yingchu at the door. She was about to say hello to him, but found that the atmosphere was not right.The sound of tick-tock ceremony and music outside the door is a song played by a bride when she gets married. It is festive and lively, but it cannot liven up the lifelessness of this room.

The girl wailed loudly, Haitang was a little confused for a moment.She couldn't believe it, put down the sorghum noodles in her hand, and shook her head.

Will not.When Mingming came to see them yesterday, the girl and her mother woke up. Although she didn't speak, she still greeted her with her eyes.

It will turn around obviously, how could it be...

"It's fake, Brother Ying, is it fake?" She grabbed Ye Ying's sleeve, and Ye Ying patted the back of her hand, which was equivalent to acquiescing.

The girl is going to be motherless, just like her, with no father or mother?

What should that girl do? She lives alone in this world, what should she do...

Tired of crying, the girl hiccupped and fell asleep.Ye Tianji carried her into the firewood room to accompany her. The mess in the room, especially the green liquid, always seemed a little weird.Ye Ying and Haitang stood by the small river not far from this house, without saying a word.

"Girl, what should I do?"

She couldn't hold back the tears as soon as she opened her mouth, and sobbed softly.She thought to herself, if Grandma hadn't brought her back to Tiance Mansion back then, she would have died on the street long ago without father or mother.Or survived by luck, but had to be abducted secretly and do some shady things, how could they know Ye Ying, how could they be respected by others, and they would be called Mrs. Haitang.

"Actually." She suppressed her tears, sobbing, "The mansion didn't intend to keep me."

This was the first time she had heard her say this. Ye Ying looked into the distance, as if she was in a daze, but she was listening seriously: "Why?"

"There is no precedent for taking in homeless people in the mansion. Even those who have no parents, there are always relatives who go to them." She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down, "So, I should have been sent out earlier. Find someone who wants a child for me. It’s just—but I don’t know why, it seems that grandma is not willing, so she keeps me. When I was five years old, the camp coach Martial arts, I watched stupidly from the side, and after a while, the instructor said I was talented, so he taught me some boxing kung fu. After a year, I was allowed to worship in the mansion."

Her hand gently grabbed the corner of Ye Ying's clothes.Ye Ying pried her fingers away and held her hand.

"The girl lost her mother, what will she do?"

There is no precedent for adopting orphans in Naihe Villa.Not to mention not being an orphan, there is no precedent for even a foreign surname.

"I'm sorry." Haitang wiped away her tears, with a smile on her face, "Every time you see me, nothing good happens. Last time it was the plague, this time it happened again—"

"Haitang," Ye Ying interrupted her, "I don't blame you."

"No, I'm just telling the truth." Haitang lowered her eyebrows, and Ye Ying held her hand tighter, "It's a good thing that you are safe."

Haitang felt that there were less stones in her heart, and felt that she was very cunning, knowing that Ye Ying would comfort her and worry her after saying these words, but she couldn't help but say it.It's just that thousands of words couldn't express it from the mouth, and in the end they still held Ye Ying's hand tightly, refusing to let go.

The girl woke up and cried again, Ye Tianji carried the girl out, looked at the sky, it was getting late.At this time, even if you can go to the coffin shop to buy a coffin, it is too late to bury it.

"Eldest son, why don't you take the girl to the city first, and come to take care of the funeral tomorrow." Ye Tianji suggested, Haitang took the girl and patted her on the back, "Brother Ying, let's go back first."

Ye Ying nodded and agreed.

Ye Tianji closed the door, and a group of four entered Yangzhou City before the city gate closed.Ye Tianji and Ye Ying went back to the villa, and Haitang took the girl back to West Nine Lanes.When Hu Ruozi came back, he saw a little girl sitting in the yard, and jokingly said, "Ah, Haitang, your illegitimate daughter?"

The girl cried again.

Hu Ruozi panicked, Haitang hurriedly hugged her in her arms and softly coaxed her to sleep, then put her on the bed and explained to Hu Ruozi what happened these days.

The two were sitting under the tree in the yard, and they only came to Yangzhou for a few days, but so many things happened as if it had been more than ten days, which made Haitang a little tired.Hu Ruozi patted her on the shoulder, "Haitang, you are also a thoughtful person, don't think too much. You have to remember that there are many people in the world who care about whether you are happy, whether you are fed and clothed. First of all, you have to live a good life. , don’t let them worry, and then worry about other people’s affairs.”

"Can……"

Hu Ruozi understood what she wanted to say, and interrupted her: "Haitang, it's not bad to 'make the best of Xiao Tian's strategy', but when you act, it's not wrong to think about those who worry about you. If you use too much force for others , broke your own body, those who worry about you will feel bad. Do you understand what Senior Sister means?"

Haitang shook her head, "Senior sister, I don't understand, does what you're talking about have something to do with girls?"

Hu Ruozi patted her on the head, "You, forget it, don't talk about that. Don't frown, or the little girl will cry again when she looks at you."

Haitang felt that what Hu Ruozi said made sense, so she nodded, "Yes, good."

The two went back to their room to rest.The girl slept on Haitang's bed, and Haitang was afraid that his movements would wake her up, so she just huddled up and slept on the floor.The girl woke up once in the middle of the night, as if she wanted to go to the bathroom, Haitang vaguely pointed to the location of the latrine, turned over and fell asleep again.

The girl got up and went to the yard, and suddenly heard a gentle but slightly deep female voice: "Girl, do you want your mother to come back to life?"

Her tears suddenly fell.

She knelt down, "Girl, I want my mother to come back alive."

"Girl, give this medicine to your mother. Don't crucify the coffin when you bury the grave tomorrow, and she will come back to life."

Suddenly there was a medicine bottle on the ground, and the girl kowtowed desperately: "Yes, yes! Thank you, Immortal Empress!"

"But, don't tell anyone else, or your mother will never come back to life..."

The voice gradually drifted away, the girl raised her head, but there was no one around, everything seemed to be in a dream, but there was indeed a medicine bottle on the ground.This is not fake, it is a fairy descended to earth!

The god said, you can't tell other people, that is to say, even the eldest master, the eldest lady, and the eldest brother can't tell, right?

The girl hid the medicine in her bosom, feeling a little more cautious in her heart.She decided not to tell Ye Ying, Haitang, and Ye Tianji no matter what—even though they are great benefactors and good people who have helped her a lot, but for the sake of her mother's survival, she cannot tell.

The next day was the day my mother was buried.Taking advantage of Ye Tianji's instructing the workers to carry the coffin, the girl sneaked into the room, took out the medicine from her bosom, squeezed her mother's mouth and poured it in.After entering the coffin and carrying it to Ziweigang, the workers dug a hole, and the girl kept looking at the mother lying in the coffin, and refused to be nailed into the coffin.It's just that the coffin was closed in the end, only one nail was driven in, and the girl cried and cried, so there was no more nails.

Ye Ying didn't go back that night either, but she and Haitang took the girl to the river to put a lamp, because Ye Tianji told the girl that as long as she put a lamp in the river, her mother would hear her calling.

Every time she put on a lamp, she secretly prayed for her mother to come back to life.

It's just that no one would have expected that something would happen in Yangzhou City early the next morning.
