Confiscated my property and exiled me, I emptied the emperor's old nest to escape famine

Ye Qingfeng and Old Lady Ye kept looking solemnly in the direction where the refugees were drinking water.

They seemed not to have heard the discussions and complaints from the woman from the Ye family.

After a long while, Old Lady Ye looked back at Ye Fei and said seriously, "Fei'er, you have to pay more attention."

"Your family of four is already small in number."

"Even if you have martial arts skills, you can't take it lightly."

Ye Fei nodded gently: "I see, thank you for your concern, old lady."

Ye Fei's words were polite, but he also kept his distance.

Old Mrs. Ye sighed softly.

But she did not force Ye Fei to change her name.

In fact, according to seniority, Ye Fei could just follow Ye Shenghui and call Old Lady Ye grandma.

But after all, Ye Fei's family is a branch of the Ye family.

Before their property was confiscated and they were exiled, they had little dealings with the direct descendants of Old Lady Ye.

There is no friendship or affection between the two sides.

Although the journey of exile has changed Ye Fei and Ye Qingyun's views on the direct descendants of the Ye family a lot.

But it was still impossible for Ye Fei to be as affectionate as Ye Shenghui and call Old Lady Ye "grandma".

Ye Qingfeng and Old Lady Ye were both aware of this.

Just then, Ye Fei saw that the group of refugees drinking water finally moved.

After drinking a lot of water at the water source, these refugees who had accidentally broken in seemed to have finally regained some strength.

Then, they started chatting with the Ye family and the Wang family who lived here.

Because there were so many people, the sound of conversation was rather noisy.

Moreover, they were at a considerable distance from each other, so Ye Fei could not hear clearly what they were talking about.

But soon, Ye Fei saw a quarrel and conflict between the refugees and the people from the Ye and Wang families.

Her brows furrowed immediately, and then she looked at Ye Qingfeng, Ye Qingyun and the old lady beside her:

"Come on, let's go over and take a look."

Lin Xue'e, who was standing by, came over holding Ye Ling's hand and spoke anxiously:

"We'll go too."

"It looks like we won't be able to have a good meal today."

"Instead of staying here and being scared, I might as well go with you guys and take a look."

Ye Fei had no objection.

Ye Qingyun also felt that under the current circumstances, it was indeed not suitable to keep Lin Xue'e and Ye Ling.

Ye Qingfeng, Old Lady Ye and others would naturally have no objections.

So, they and other members of the Ye and Wang families who saw the situation all rushed over.

When everyone arrived, Ye Fei found that the two sides were already arguing fiercely.

Before she could say anything, Old Lady Ye had already majestically rebuked her: "Stop arguing!"

Old Madam Ye had an extraordinary demeanor, and she enjoyed a high status in both the Ye and Wang families.

Therefore, as soon as she opened her mouth, people from the Ye and Wang families immediately stopped talking.

Although the refugees were not clear about Old Lady Ye's identity, they were not blind.

They could see the status of Old Lady Ye.

For a moment, the scene quickly became quiet.

Ye Fei glanced at the refugees coldly: "What were you arguing about just now?"

The refugees looked at the cold Ye Fei and were somewhat shocked by her temperament.

However, a dark-skinned man still spoke up under pressure: "We don't want to argue."

"We just want to discuss with them to borrow some food."

"Now that we are here, we naturally plan to settle down here."

"We are all neighbors from now on, and it is only natural for us to help each other."

"And we're not borrowing it for free. After we settle down, we can go up the mountain to dig wild vegetables and hunt game."

"When the time comes, we will naturally repay it."

“I didn’t expect they were not willing to compromise at all.”

Ye Fei looked at the dark-skinned man coldly, her tone as icy as the snow in the cold winter:

"Wasn't what I just said clear enough?"

"We don't have any extra food to lend you."

“We came to this place first.”

"If you disturb us, don't blame us for being rude."

The dark-skinned man looked at Ye Fei, who was so young but so ruthless, and immediately became furious:

"You people are so cruel!"

"Are you still human?"

"I see that you all look very energetic and don't look like you're hungry at all."

"You obviously have food and drink, why don't you lend us some?"

"We just need a little bit..."

The dark-skinned man's words resonated with everyone in the refugee group.

They stared at Ye Fei and the others and accused them: "You are too cruel."

"This is a mountain, originally an unowned land."

"If you can come, we can come too."

"Why do you speak to us in such a tone?"

"Whether you agree or not, we must settle down here."

The refugees' words immediately destroyed the little sympathy that the Ye and Wang families had initially felt for them.

Ye Fei curled the corners of his mouth coldly.

Then, she exchanged glances with Ye Qingyun, Ye Qingfeng, and Old Lady Ye.

At this moment, they were in perfect harmony.

They also have a tacit understanding with the Ye and Wang families behind them.

Everyone started to take action and got ready.

Ye Fei intends to take tough measures directly against the refugees in front of him.

These refugees keep talking about moral blackmail. People like this are not worthy of Ye Fei's help at all.

An old man suddenly knelt down in front of Ye Fei and said, "Girl, girl, don't listen to their nonsense."

"We're just trying to settle down and survive here."

"They are just angry words, don't take them seriously."

As the old man spoke, he suddenly stood up and turned to face the refugees:

"Everyone has suffered a lot along the way. You suffer, and I suffer too."

“We are all refugees now, so why should refugees make things difficult for refugees?”

"It's fate that we can come here and meet each other here."

"They were here first, so stop stirring up trouble and talking nonsense."

Ye Fei raised her eyebrows.

She didn't believe the old man's behavior.

However, it is obvious that this old man still has a relatively high prestige among the refugees.

After he spoke, the refugees, although unhappy, finally stopped making noise.

However, the hostility towards Ye Fei and his group in their eyes could not be concealed no matter what.

After the old man comforted the refugees, he smiled and apologized to Ye Fei and the others:

"Sorry for causing trouble to you."

"We were just too hungry, too tired, and too thirsty during the journey, so our emotions got a little out of control."

"Don't worry, we won't borrow any food from you anymore."

"In this situation, food and water are very precious."

"We really just forced others to do what they wanted."

The old man's sensible words made the people from the Ye and Wang families look at each other in bewilderment, and they didn't want to use force against them directly.

Ye Fei narrowed his eyes and stared at the old man for a while.

She found the old man's eyes particularly sincere.

This kind of look either comes from the heart or is concealed too well by excellent acting skills.

If it is the latter, then this old man is an extremely dangerous person.
