The Demon Queen of Divine Doctor is not to be trifled with

Chapter 325 We Will All Choose You

Tang stood up anxiously, and watching Ye Jingsheng walking away step by step, she began to stomp her feet in the room, which made the old lady upset.

But the old lady also had some thoughts in her mind. Her second son had always been very close to the Jiang family. If she could have a girl sent by the Jiang family as a co-wife, she would not refuse. Moreover, she was a young girl. She remembered that concubine's sister was very pretty, and she thought that the daughter born would not be much worse.

But her son refused so straightforwardly, and it seemed that he was complaining about Tang's trouble today, but in fact, she always felt that it was not the case. Especially since her son started walking very fast, with hurried steps, as if he was in a hurry to do something.

This gave her other thoughts. Did Jing Sheng already have a candidate in mind? However, this matter was not urgent or important. She was only thinking about one thing at the moment, and the more she thought about it, the more upset she became.

The old lady glanced at Tang, coughed twice and said, "I'm really tired. You should think more positively. At least Jingsheng agreed to compensate you for the jewelry. You won't lose much. Okay, go back to your room. I need to take a nap. People get sleepy when they get old. I've been making a fuss all morning and I want to sleep." She stretched out her hand to Jun Tao, "Help me back to my room."

When Tang saw her like this, she knew that she didn't want to bother with the concubine chosen by the Jiang family anymore, so she said a few more words of greeting helplessly, which were nothing more than asking her elder sister to have a good rest, and then she went back to the guest courtyard.

Finally, everyone left. The old lady grabbed Jun Tao and said, "Go and find out how Ye Wenyan came back."

Jun Tao was stunned, but soon remembered why the old lady asked that. Just now, the fourth young lady said that she accompanied the emperor to patrol the mountains. If that was the case, she shouldn't have come back by herself in a carriage. If a girl didn't come home overnight, the palace would have to give an explanation. So she hurried to inquire, and when she came back, she told the old lady: "The gatekeeper said that the fourth young lady came back in a palace carriage."

The old lady took a breath, her face looking dejected.

Why couldn't she win once in her battle with Ye Wenyan? Why did she always lose? What was wrong?

Jun Tao has been worried today. She helped the old lady to the inner room, and then went to the door and closed it. Then she came back to ask the old lady: "The fourth young lady mentioned the matter of pouring the medicine today. Did she know something? Why do I always feel that the fourth young lady knows something? But she didn't say it all at once, nor did she say it clearly. She just said it every now and then, as if she was baiting us. This is too scary."

The old lady also knew that it was too scary. She now even felt that Ye Wenyan was too scary.

She whispered to Jun Tao, "Notify our maids to prepare. Start digging trees after midnight. Dig up the tree that has been spilled with medicine and chop it into firewood for burning tomorrow." Jun Tao nodded, "Okay, I'll do it right away." After saying that, she walked out, muttering to herself, "It's strange. The earth dragon turned over so violently that the house collapsed, but why is the big tree not hurt at all?"

The old lady covered her chest and became depressed again.

Ye Wenyan accompanied Madam Mu all the way back to Qingliang Courtyard. On the way, she told Madam Mu: "Next time you encounter such a thing, you don't have to kneel. What I do, where I go, when I leave and when I come back, none of them can control it." After that, she smiled at Madam Mu and said, "But mother can control it, so mother, you still have to say what I should say, because I did not come back all night, and I did not tell you in advance. I was wrong in this matter."

Mu shook her head. "There's nothing wrong with you. I know why you left. I also know that as a mother, I didn't handle some issues well enough, which disappointed you. Child, you have your own ideas, and I can see that you have your own things to do, so I won't ask. I just want to tell you that as long as you don't do bad things, I will always support you. As for how my family treats me, it doesn't matter. Since your father passed away, I have already gotten used to these things."

When Mrs. Mu mentioned her deceased husband, her mood instantly dropped. Ye Wenyan could see that she couldn't bear to part with that man, but unfortunately, she couldn't go back to the past no matter how much she couldn't bear to part with him. So he said to her, "People always have to look forward. It's okay to recall the past, but the road still has to move forward. Some people and some things are in the past, and they will never come back no matter how much you think about them. Mother, we can't get used to it. Getting used to it means compromise, and compromise means giving in, and giving in is cowardice. And I, Ye Wenyan's mother, must not be cowardly!"

As soon as she said this, Ye Qingmei seemed to be encouraged and immediately agreed: "Yan'er is right, we must not be cowardly, and the Mu family will not allow us to be cowardly!"

She mentioned the Mu family, which made Mu sigh, but she couldn't explain why. She just said to Ye Qingmei: "I am a married daughter. I have to bear the life, whether it is sweet or bitter. My parents gave me a ten-mile red dowry when I got married, which is the greatest gift. I can't cause trouble to my parents. So whether I am cowardly or not is my life. Even if the Mu family knows, they won't care. But Qingmei, I heard that only when a person experiences great changes can he become completely different from before. This statement is quite meaningful when it applies to you now."

Ye Qingmei felt a little regretful when she heard her mother bring the conversation back to her side, but there was nothing she could do. She could only sigh and say, "The days are not as peaceful and smooth as before. If I continue to obey in everything like before, I'm afraid that one day I'll be eaten to the bone. Besides, I can't always cause trouble for Yan'er. People have to be self-reliant."

After sending Mu back to Qingliangyuan, the two sisters left together without keeping anyone company.

Ye Qingmei held Ye Wenyan's arm tightly, thinking for a long time, and finally asked her: "Yan'er, no matter what time it is, you will not leave us, right?"

Ye Wenyan laughed, "Sister, we are a family, what's the point of talking about leaving or not? Even if I get married in the future, it won't be like what mother said, that a married daughter will not cause trouble to her parents' family. I may still come to eat the dumplings made by mother, still pester you to tell you sisterly secrets, and still ask my brother for candy."

"Will it?" Ye Qingmei sighed, "But you don't whisper to me now. Yan'er, I don't mean to blame you, I just want to express my attitude to you. Don't worry, I won't hold you back. I won't be as clueless as before and listen to my family's arrangements for everything. Chu Lian is different from before. If I don't change, it will not only be your face that will be lost, but also my own life. It's mother..." She paused and told the truth, "What makes mother most sad is the continuous things."

"I won't get involved in her affairs." Ye Wenyan also told her the truth, "Like the Baipinxiang shop, if mother hadn't insisted that I keep it, I wouldn't have taken it. How much mother gave her, how much she gave to the old lady, I don't want to care about these things. But everyone has a bottom line. If she doesn't interfere with me, then she can do whatever she wants, I don't bother to care. But if she always comes to my door to make trouble, I can't let her do it. I will take back the shops that were taken away by the old lady in the past in the next few days, but this time I won't help mother to keep it, I will return it to her, as for how she uses it and how to divide it, it's mother's own business."

"What if the mother is returned to Lian Mian?"

"That's my mother's own business. I just think of it as a waste of time. It's no loss to me."

"But Yan'er, secretly I don't want to give those things to Lian Mian again." Ye Qingmei told the truth, "I'm afraid that in the end there won't even be enough food left. That would be too unfair to you, me, and my brother."

"Then ask mother for it, and ask brother for it, too." Ye Wenyan gave her advice, "Since you want to change, be thorough. Say what you want, and if you want to fight for it, fight together. No one owes anyone anything."

"What about you? Do you want one?"

"Me?" Ye Wenyan shook his head. "I don't want to. Sister, let's not beat around the bush. I know that mother treats me well, but I didn't deliberately hide many things from her, so compared to you, I am an outsider in her heart after all. Now is not the time yet. Believe it or not, if one day my interests conflict with yours or with my second sister, mother's final choice will definitely not be me."

"Yan'er..."

"Don't worry, sister. I'm not unhappy." She comforted Ye Qingmei, "Besides, I really don't care about those things. They would be a burden to me. Why don't you and brother take them all? Will I be at a disadvantage in the future?" She patted the back of Ye Qingmei's hand, "Sister, life is lived day by day. In the past, Fourth Miss Ye lived with you, and now I live with you. If I don't tell you some things, you won't really find out anything even if you have doubts in your heart. Since I choose not to hide it, it means I really want to live with you. None of us can predict what will happen in the future, so it's better to live one day at a time according to our hearts. If you think I'm a good sister, you can get closer to me. If you think I'm not a good person, we should just maintain a superficial peace."

"Yan'er!" Ye Qingmei was about to burst into tears, "Don't say those distant words. No matter in the past, now, or in the future, you will always be the sister I have loved since childhood in my heart. Since you have her blood flowing in your body, you can't deny us."

She stopped and stroked Ye Wenyan's head. "You have been practicing martial arts since you were young. You are growing fast and will soon be as tall as me. Yan'er, my brother and I have no other ideas. We just hope that we can live in harmony, help each other, and take care of each other. As for Lianmian, she is the one who should go with the flow. Even if we have to choose in the future, my brother and I will choose you."
