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

Chapter 329 Let the old general come to you personally

Today's morning and evening visits are still the same as usual. Because of the tree incident, the old lady has been in a tense mental state. She looks at everyone with a scrutinizing look, as if everyone is a thief.

But she knew about this, but no one else did. The felling of trees was done quietly at night, and not only outsiders, but even the servants in Fuluyuan didn't know about it. So her behavior was very strange, and no one could figure out what was wrong with the old lady.

My aunt Tang also came, but she didn't come to pay her respects to the old lady. She came to sit side by side with the old lady and enjoy the feeling of being superior when the younger generations also greeted her.

This made the Ye family who came to pay their respects to them feel ridiculous. No matter the first or second wife, they all had the same thought in their hearts: How unpopular is this aunt in her hometown in Xiushan County? Don't the younger generations pay their respects to her on weekdays? Otherwise, why would she enjoy it so much, as if she was experiencing this kind of scene for the first time. It's really cheap!

But Tang was unaware of this and still felt that this was a good feeling. After the younger generations greeted her, she said, "Well, good, get up, you are all good children."

Xiao rolled her eyes at her rudely and sat back in her seat with a sullen face. Mu didn't pay much attention to her either, and sat back with Ye Qingmei and Ye Wenyan. Then Tang asked, "Why can't I see Feiyu? I saw Feizhou yesterday, but where is Feiyu? Why didn't he come to greet his grandmother so early in the morning?"

Ye Qingmei sat down and immediately stood up again, bending her knees perfunctorily, just squatting and then standing up. Then she replied to Tang's words expressionlessly: "The morning and evening visits in the back house are the rules set for the female family members, but it is not reasonable for the grown-up young masters to come every day. No man's ambition is to stay in the back house. My brothers have schoolwork and things to do. This is the rule that our family has adhered to for many generations. How can you break the ancestral rules after only two days of coming? Could it be that you are still thinking about being the master of our Ye family and changing the first-rank general's mansion into Jiang's residence?"

When Ye Qingmei said this, Ye Chulian immediately added: "If that's the case, all the jewelry I wore yesterday would be wasted." After saying this, she laughed, then quickly stood up and apologized, "I'm sorry, aunt, I really couldn't help laughing."

Tang rubbed her chest and looked at the old lady in disbelief, "Sister, is this your child? It's not just one child who is rebelling, but all the children in your family are rebelling!" After saying that, she looked at Xiao and Mu respectively and added, "The two daughters-in-law are also rebelling, and the whole family is rebelling. Sister, how can you still live in this house?"

Xiao retorted with a cold face: "Aunt, do you want to take mother back to the Jiang family? Speaking of which, when a woman is bullied in her husband's family, it seems that her family members have to intervene. At the very least, they will argue with her, and at the worst, they will take the woman back to her family's home and wait for her husband to come and apologize before taking her back. It's a pity that my father is no longer here. If my mother goes back, there will be no one to take her back. Or..." She paused and sneered, "Or do you, the Jiang family, want my father to come and find you in person?"

Tang shuddered. What kind of scene would it be if the dead person went looking for her personally?

Looking at the old lady again, she found that she had no reaction at all. It seemed that she did not hear what she said, nor did she hear what the younger generations said to her. She just sat there in a daze, and no one knew what she was thinking.

So she called out twice more: "Sister, sister?"

The old lady seemed to wake up from a dream and shuddered, "What's wrong?"

Mrs. Tang was also very angry. "You didn't listen to what my sister said? I said your children are rebellious!"

"Oh." The old lady still looked indifferent, and just kept muttering, "Rebellion? Let's rebel!"

Tang didn't understand, but Jun Tao knew what was going on. Not to mention the old lady, even she had to force herself to stand beside the old lady. What happened last night was so scary that she couldn't even think about it. Her heart trembled when she thought about it. But she couldn't help thinking about it, so the old lady must be thinking about the tree now, and she couldn't care less about what the people below were saying.

So she said to Tang: "My old lady didn't sleep well last night, please don't mind, Auntie."

Tang said, "Oh!" "I didn't sleep well. I didn't sleep well for a while and then went back to sleep. People have to get enough sleep to be energetic."

The old lady was not in high spirits, but after being called by Mrs. Tang for a while, she was no longer in a daze like she was at the beginning.

She now had a little more energy, so she began to look at the people sitting below again.

This time, he looked at everyone more carefully than when they first came in, from Xiao to Mu, from Ye Qingmei to Ye Wenyan to Ye Chulian, and finally looked at Liu and Xichun carefully. The conclusion he came to was: everyone he looked at was suspicious.

So she opened her mouth and asked, "What did you do last night?"

Jun Tao's heart trembled, wondering why the old lady asked so directly? But since the words had been spoken, there was no way to take them back, so she also followed the reactions of the people below.

Xiao was the first to speak: "Mother, what do you mean? You should sleep at night, do you want to tell me everything you do at night? Well, that's fine, anyway, it doesn't matter to me as a mistress of the house who stays alone in an empty room, it's nothing more than being alone on a couch and a cold quilt. But the situation on sister Xichun's side may be difficult to tell, mother, are you sure you want to hear it?"

Since Xiao had a falling out with the old lady and Tang yesterday, she has never gotten over the awkward feeling in her heart. Although it is absolutely impossible for her to stand with Ye Wenyan, she doesn't want to rely on the old lady to live in this mansion anymore.

Why should she respect a mother-in-law who thinks her daughter-in-law is useless all day long and wants to find a concubine for her son?

The old lady's face was not looking good. She knew why Xiao Shi had such an attitude. If it were in the past, she would definitely argue with Xiao Shi and force Xiao Shi to apologize, or even go to the Xiao family. After all, she always felt that she was right. The two children you gave birth to were not good, and you couldn't have another one. Why can't my Ye family's second branch have legitimate children?

But today the old lady didn't have that thought in mind. Xiao's affairs were all trivial matters, and it didn't matter if they were quarreled behind closed doors. She just wanted to know how the tree survived.

She felt that there was no need to ask about Xichun and Liu, they were just two concubines, one was busy serving the master, and the other would just lock herself in the room and spend her days quietly, there was nothing to ask. But Ye Chulian needed to be asked, and then the main room needed to be strictly interrogated.

So she turned her gaze to Ye Chulian, who immediately said, "Grandma, please understand. My granddaughter slept in the house all night, and was called up by Teacher Guixi to practice dancing before dawn. That's all, nothing else."

The old lady looked at Madam Mu again, and Madam Mu said, "I couldn't sleep, so I got up and went to the small Buddhist temple in the house to burn incense for the master. I sat in the temple for half the night, mumbling to myself. Mother, do you want to know what I muttered? It was nothing more than that you died too early. It shouldn't be like this at your age. Is there any other reason? That's it."

The old lady covered her chest with her hands, feeling a little suffocated.

Ye Qingmei also said that she was sleeping in the room, and then asked: "Grandma, why did you suddenly care about what we did at night?"

The old lady snorted coldly and ignored her.

Finally, his gaze finally fell on Ye Wenyan, who had been well-behaved and hadn't said much since he entered the house today.

Ye Wenyan laughed, "Grandma, why are you looking at me? Do you expect me to tell you everything I did last night? Why should I tell you? Even if you are my grandmother, I have never heard of a grandmother who cares about how her granddaughter sleeps, whether she likes the left side or the right side, and whether she covers herself with one quilt or two quilts, right? Besides, I was chatting with Aunt Ji last night. We were talking about the master of the Ji family. Grandma, are you sure you want to hear it?"

The old lady shuddered and shook her head without even thinking. She didn't want to hear anything about the master, for fear that she would be silenced if she heard something wrong.

Tang hadn't figured out where Nanny Ji came from, so she asked like a fool, "What master?"

The old lady didn't even want to respond and simply ignored her.

She asked everyone in the room, and it seemed that except for Ye Wenyan, no one else was ill. But she didn't dare to ask Ye Wenyan, the person she suspected the most, in depth, which really made her feel upset.

The morning and evening visits could no longer go on. The old lady got angry looking at everyone, and everyone got angry looking at the old lady, too. In the end, they all went their separate ways, and even Tang was sent back to the guest house.

After everyone had left and Jun Tao had closed the door, she returned to ask the old lady, "Who do you think did this?"

The old lady gritted her teeth and asked back, "Do you think a human being can do such a thing?"

Jun Tao shuddered, "Can it be that this is really haunted?" The old lady did not speak. She was repeatedly recalling Ye Wenyan's performance just now, including every word he said, every detail of his movements and expressions. She went through all of them in her mind, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong, because she remembered Ye Wenyan's half-smile, the slightly raised corners of his lips, and the undisguised mockery in his eyes.

Without thinking too much, the old lady suddenly said to Jun Tao, "Go and call in a maid from the yard."

Jun Tao didn't understand, but she still opened the door and called a little maid in. Then she heard the old lady ask, "Did you hear what the fourth young lady said when she walked into the yard just now?"

The little maid thought for a moment and nodded, "I think I heard a sentence. When the masters were walking out together, the fourth lady saw a tree in our yard and pointed at it and said to the eldest lady, 'Look, sister, the feng shui of grandma's yard is really good. It's still cold today, but the trees in her yard are sprouting new buds.'"

The old lady's heart twitched violently...
