【Second Sister Ye Goes Home】
Even Ye Fan couldn't forcibly summon Fat Tuan from the system, but Li Yao could.
Li Yao vaguely guessed the reason, but did not tell Ye Fan.
Ye Fan was about to ask, when he saw him stretch out his hand and catch the little fat ball in his hand.
The limp little guy froze in fright and turned into a small hard ball.
"Father, help!" Fat Tuan stretched out his thin arms and looked at Ye Fan with tears in his eyes.
Ye Fan couldn't help laughing, knowing that the little guy was pretending to be pitiful, but couldn't help feeling distressed, and reached out to grab it.
Li Yao flipped his wrist, and somehow put the fat ball on his shoulder.
Fat Tuan huddled his body in a round shape, and was as honest as a little wooden chicken, not daring to run away at all.
It knew that even if Li Yao ran away, he could be summoned back.It can clearly feel that the ability of the "ruler" is stronger.
Li Yao pursed his lips and looked at Ye Fan with a happy smile.
"I don't believe it, my son, I can't get it back!" Ye Fan was aroused to fight, and climbed onto him with hands and feet.
At this moment, the concierge who had left for a while came back, followed by a young man in white.
Li Yao patted Ye Fan's shoulder.
Ye Fan ignored him, took the opportunity to stretch his arms, and rescued Fat Tuan.
"I won." Ye Fan held the little dumpling and shook it in front of his eyes. The little dumpling looked as proud as it could be.
"Yeah." Li Yao smiled dotingly, and put him back on the round stool half-pull half-hug.
At this time, the porter just walked outside the pavilion and bowed to report: "Master Hou, Xiao Lang, Yuan Xiucai is here."
Yuan Xiucai frowned vaguely when he heard what he called Ye Fan, and looked at Ye Fan indistinctly.
Ye Fan also turned his head and looked at him.
It wasn't until this moment that he realized that in Yuanshen's memory, he didn't have any impression of this second brother-in-law. The only thing he remembered was the day when Second Sister Ye got married, he was dressed in red, riding a horse, with a cold face.
Yes, very rarely, the expression on the groom's official face was not excitement or shyness, but reluctance—of course, Yuan Xiucai didn't show it clearly at the time, and only the young original body discovered the real emotion at that moment.
Yuan Xiucai withdrew his gaze, stepped forward, raised his hand and gave Li Yao a shallow bow.
"Students have met Lord Hou." He has a reputation, and he doesn't need to kneel when he sees Li Yao.
Li Yao responded lightly.
Yuan Xiucai got up, but didn't hear the seat given by the superior, so he could only stand there dryly.
Ye Fan sat beside Li Yao with peace of mind, looking at him blatantly.
Surprisingly, Yuan Xiucai is not as gloomy or wretched as he imagined.On the contrary, he has delicate features and well-dressed clothes, and he has a bit of a noble temperament of a scholar in his gestures - from the appearance alone, he looks like a dog.
Yuan Xiucai was also looking at him.
Just now, he didn't miss Ye Fan's fight with Li Yao, including at this moment, the two of them were sitting together, arms touching arms, legs touching legs, and there was no intention of hiding it at all.
Over the years, he has gained some knowledge by wandering among the nobles in the capital. At this moment, he can see at a glance that the relationship between Ye Fan and Li Yao is unusual.
"Fanfan, he said you are the little face of the ruler—what is the face?" Fat Tuan flew to Ye Fan's shoulder and whispered in his ear.
Ye Fan choked, and suddenly became extremely angry - you are the leader of the face, and your whole family is the leader of the face!
No, not including the second sister.
Li Yao patted his hand, his eyes became sharper.
In Yuan Xiucai's eyes, this kind of action was even more ambiguous.
He concealed the disdain in his eyes, and there was an arrogance on his face that was too late to hide, "I heard that Ye Xiaolang hurt his head, and he was worried in his heart, so he asked me to come and see him. Now it seems that he is healed."
Ye Fan gave him a blank look, and he didn't even bother to do the show, "You are not very well informed. It's not a day or two since I fell on my head. It should have been 800 years ago. You, brother-in-law, just came today, don't you think it's a little bit strange?" Is it late?"
Yuan Xiucai has wandered among officials and nobles these years, and is used to playing with verbal tricks. Where has he seen such a straightforward person?Immediately changed his face.
Unexpectedly, he thought he was well-bred, so he had to pull out a smirk, "Ye Xiaolang is still so straightforward."
"It turns out that you still know that I'm 'straightforward'. In comparison, I can't do it. If I meet you on the street, I won't recognize you."
With a few words, Yuan Xiucai was almost killed.
Li Yao pursed his lips, with a slight smile between his brows and eyes.
He didn't say a word, and only waited for Ye Fan to vent his anger before he said lightly: "Since the second lady of the Ye family misses her younger brother, you might as well send her back to stay for a few days."
Yuan Xiucai was taken aback for a moment, he never expected such an incident—the legendary Marquis of Chang'an, who was decisive in killing and attacking, actually took care of other people's family affairs?
He looked at Ye Fan calmly - the only explanation was for this.He didn't expect that Marquis Chang'an loved Ye Fan to such an extent.
On the one hand, he lamented Ye Fan's shit luck, and on the other hand, he looked down on him.At this moment, he was already thinking about how miserable Ye Fan's end would be after his "fading love".
Ye Fan didn't know his sinister intentions, he just looked at Li Yao wholeheartedly, his eyes were full of gratitude and admiration - he just said that he wanted to bring his second sister back, Li Yao took action, worthy of being half an ex-boyfriend, Niu Chacha!
Li Yao hooked his lips, and added another handful of firewood, "I heard that the second lady of the Ye family is very popular, and Ben Hou got something new recently, so I can't help but trouble her."
When Yuan Xiucai heard the words, he couldn't help but think of Mianguoshu, and he was overjoyed.
This matter coincided with his purpose, and he thought it would go through some twists and turns, but he didn't expect Li Yao to bring it up.
He immediately put down his posture and said respectfully: "But according to the order of Lord Hou."
Li Yao hooked his lips sarcastically, and focused his attention on the kid next to him—this heartless little mushroom was much cuter.
A meeting full of gunpowder smoke turned out to be unexpectedly satisfactory.
Ye Fan didn't expect to be able to take the second sister home so soon, so he left Li Yao without guilt and went to tidy up the cave.
Yuan Xiucai didn't expect to take such a good first step. When leaving the Li family manor, her steps were brisk.
only one thing...
Thinking of the secret that could not be revealed, he clenched his hands in his sleeves into fists.
——Need to think of a way, so that Second Sister Ye can stay honestly when she returns to her natal family, and don't cause any trouble.
Second Sister Ye couldn't have been more kind to the servants when she was at home, and everyone thought of her well.
Aunt Yu and Yu Sanniang were beaming all day when they heard that Second Sister Ye was coming back.
Ye Fan looked around all the houses, and finally picked the biggest one on the west side, and planned to live in it for Second Sister Ye.
The mother and daughter put down their work and spent most of the day tidying up the cave dwelling.
Not only the bedding and window paper were replaced with new ones, but even the low table, square stool, eight-legged desk, and dressing table by the window were newly bought from a carpenter's shop.
Ye Fan went in and turned around, almost not daring to recognize it—the originally empty cave dwelling has been cleaned up into a decent boudoir.
"Second sister must be happy to see it."
Aunt Yu sighed, "I just hope that the second lady can stay longer."
Ye Fan thought to himself, when he clarified the matter, if Second Sister Ye really had a bad time at Yuan's house, she wouldn't have to go back.
***
September [-]th, the weather was fine.
Yuan Xiucai hired a car and brought Second Sister Ye back.There are also his two younger sisters—Aunt Yuan and Erniang Yuan.
The two young ladies were born to the Yuan family's concubines, they were more than ten years younger than Yuan Xiucai, and they hadn't even mentioned their marriage yet. Logically, they shouldn't live in the Ye family so carelessly.
However, Yuan Xiucai brought them here regardless of Second Sister Ye's objection.
The two little ladies didn't look like they were being forced at all. When they got off the donkey cart, they stared into the courtyard of Ye's house with their eyes wide open. Everyone could see the calculation in their eyes.
Second Sister Ye was both guilty and helpless, and she seemed bewildered.
Ye Fan ignored Yuan's family and was only immersed in joy, moving boxes and placing things with Yu's family.
Second Sister Ye put away the glare in her eyes, pulled Ye Fan aside, and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, Fanzi, I'm only staying for one night, and I'll be back tomorrow."
Aunt Yuan followed behind her at some point, and when she heard this, she said sharply: "What is this sister-in-law talking about? Ye Xiaolang brought you back with good intentions, and naturally hoped that you could stay longer. When I go back later, it seems that I think he's not entertaining well."
Second Sister Ye lowered her face, and stabbed back neither softly nor hard, "This is my home, so I don't want to entertain you."
Aunt Yuan choked, and couldn't think of a rebuttal for a while.
Ye Fan grinned, and silently praised the second sister.
Seeing his smiling face, Second Sister Ye felt more at ease - as a married woman, she shouldn't have said that, but it was because of Ye Fan's face that she had such confidence.
No, Yuan Xiucai frowned immediately, and said coldly: "My lady said so, where will my Yuan family be placed?"
Second Sister Ye trembled, she was speechless, she was obviously afraid of him.
Ye Fan's heart sank, and the smile on his face stopped.
He pulled Second Sister Ye behind him, and said without any sympathy, "You also said 'your Yuan family', my sister is naturally from the Ye family, is there anything wrong with what you said just now?"
It's not that he doesn't know how to intrigue, but he is too lazy to use it, especially when dealing with such scum.
It was the first time for Yuan Xiucai to meet someone like Ye Fan - he put everything on the surface, and he really had no brains at all.
"Fanfan, he said you have no brains." Fat Tuan grabbed Ye Fan's ear and complained quietly.
Ye Fan sneered, it's not scary to be brainless, what's scary is that you think you're smart and end up burying yourself.
"Yes, bury him!"
The fat group stretched out its small paws, and drew a circle in mid-air. The bottom of the circle was a hole, which just covered Yuan Xiucai. As if buried.
Ye Fan suppressed a smile, and dragged Second Sister Ye into the house.
Although Second Sister Ye was worried, she still gritted her teeth and followed him closely without looking at Yuan Xiucai again.
The master's attitude is here, and the Yu family is not weak at all. Except for Uncle Yu who greeted Yuan Xiucai symbolically, the others just seemed to be dumb and didn't even greet him.
As for the two young ladies of the Yuan family, they were left there in the open.
They are used to taking advantage of their father's favor at home, how can they bear such grievances at this time?Really ashamed and angry.
Aunt Yuan pointed at the main house and said loudly on purpose: "Brother, let's go back and never come again!"
"If that's the case, let's take my sister-in-law back." Yuan Erniang's voice was soft enough for everyone in the room to hear, "You can't ask her to stay alone at her mother's house for a long time, it's against the rules."
Yuan Xiucai's face was livid, but he didn't attack.
He even smiled, and said unhurriedly: "Don't be self-willed, stay with your sister-in-law, and I will pick you up in a few days."
After finishing speaking, without saying goodbye to Second Sister Ye, she turned around and left the gate, got into the donkey cart and left.
The two young ladies of the Yuan family just stood in the courtyard like that, looking at each other, each with their own ghosts.
