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

Chapter 335: Also a Craftsman

"Fourth sister, have you always suspected that Grandfather's death was related to the old lady?" Ye Chulian said on the way out of Fuluyuan, "Fourth sister wouldn't do anything without a reason. You asked me and big sister to throw away all the medicine these two days. There must be a reason."

Ye Wenyan asked her back: "What do you think about the death of your grandfather?"

Ye Chulian thought for a moment and said, "My aunt once said that the old man has not lived for more than sixty years and his body has always been strong. Although he is not as good as when he was young, he is not going to die. She has always felt that something is wrong with this matter, but no one in the mansion is pursuing it, and no one is willing to listen to her, so she can only let it go."

She slowed down her tone and lowered her voice. "Sister, this is what I think. If there was something wrong with grandfather's death, then uncle's death was even more problematic. At the beginning, everyone said that he became ill because he was too sad, but do you think this statement is reliable? Uncle was a general who fought in the battlefield. He saw too many lives and deaths. Those brothers who drank together the night before might lose their heads the next day. So even if it was his own father who passed away, he wouldn't be so sad that he would sacrifice his own life."

Ye Wenyan smiled bitterly, "Look, you understand this principle, how could others not understand it?"

The original owner had a very vivid memory of what happened that day. His father died, and his mother cried so hard that she fainted several times. Every time she woke up, she would say it was impossible, your father couldn't have died like this. But he was dead, and she couldn't cry him back.

Ye Chulian added, "If someone tampered with grandpa's medicine, then someone on uncle's side might have tampered with it too. I just can't figure it out. If there was something between grandma and grandpa that couldn't be resolved, and she had to use grandpa's death to calm her anger, then why did uncle do that? What reason did he have to harm his own son?"

Ye Wenyan didn't know what grudge the old lady had with her eldest son. Even if his father's death had nothing to do with the old lady, her attitude towards her eldest son and his family was obvious to all.

"Sister." Ye Chulian took her arm, "I won't ask more. I just want to tell you, sister, if you need my help, please tell me. No matter what it is, I can do it."

Ye Wenyan looked at her for a while, then asked, "Are you sure you want to get involved? You have to know that investigating this matter is very dangerous. If you are not careful, you will be killed and silenced. I can protect myself, but I can't protect you all the time."

"It's okay, I'm not afraid." Ye Chulian said seriously.

"What if you are faced with a difficult decision in the future?"

"Are you talking about my father?" Ye Chulian's face was full of bitterness. "Sister, I can guarantee that my aunt is innocent in these matters, and I only care about my aunt. As for my father, he is worse than a stranger to me. My second brother may have hoped to be loved and valued by my parents, but I have never even thought about it. Ever since I was sensible, I knew that if I wanted to survive in this family, I had to reduce my presence to the lowest level, to the point that they all forgot about me, and then I could survive."

She covered her face with her hands, then let go, her face full of sadness.

"Unfortunately, even though we have suppressed ourselves to the lowest level, they still won't let me go. If it weren't for this great funeral, I might have been engaged. The other party is a fool, a relative of Madam Xiao's family. In order to curry favor with the Xiao family and consolidate the relationship between the General's Mansion and the Xiao family, my father sent me to a fool and said that this was my blessing because the fool was a legitimate son and I would be his legal wife if I married him. I, a concubine's daughter, was able to marry a legitimate son as his legal wife. This was a blessing I earned in my previous life. It was because the Second Madam thought of me in her heart that she gave me such a good marriage. Sister, don't you think this is absurd?"

Ye Wenyan had no recollection of this incident. The Second House’s affairs were always done in secret, and the old lady would never talk about it in front of everyone, so she didn’t know about it, and her mother, Mrs. Mu, probably didn’t know about it either.

Ye Chulian continued to speak: "Later, because of the successive deaths in our family, this matter had to be postponed. Sister, you may not believe it if I tell you, but in my memory, my father has never smiled at me. Every time he looks at me, I feel that his eyes are calculating. He has always been calculating these children under his control, which one can be sent to where, and how much benefit can be brought to him. We are like objects, held in his hands, waiting to be sold at a price."

Ye Wenyan sighed, she was helpless, the second branch of the Ye family lived like the head of the first branch, while the first branch was in harmony. Of course, Ye Lianmian had to be removed.

Now that the second branch has become the head of the family, both Ye Jingsheng and Xiao have more room to play, and the future should be more exciting! It's just that these children are suffering, and I don't know what their future will be like.

"Sister." Ye Chulian shook her twice, "Just take me with you! I am the child of the Ye family. If the Ye family collapses, I will collapse with it, so I must find a way out for myself."

"What kind of solution do you want?"

"I don't know." Ye Chulian shook her head. "I only know that following Fourth Sister is the right thing to do. Sister, don't blame me for using you. Even if I am using you, I will give you everything I can and I will not be an ungrateful person. I just hope that when my aunt and I reach the end of our rope, Fourth Sister can help us, just like you helped Second Brother. I don't ask for anything else."

Miss Ye Wu, who has always been pitiful and delicate, at this moment abandoned her usual appearance and looked unusually determined.

Ye Wenyan nodded, "Then follow me! I will never let anyone who follows me wholeheartedly suffer any loss."

Ye Chulian was very happy, and even the maidservant following behind her was happy for her. The master was protected, and the maidservant also benefited from it. In the future, with the protection of the fourth lady, the future could finally see a bright future.

So Sui Xi asked, "Does Miss Fifth still want to listen to Second Master and learn those weird things?"

Ye Wenyan was puzzled, "What weird stuff? What did your father ask you to learn?"

Ye Chulian sighed and said, "It's a kind of painting dance. While dancing, you draw with your feet on the ground. In winter, when there's snow on the ground, you draw in the snow. In spring and autumn, when there's no snow on the ground, you tie dye on your feet and draw with the dye. But the master who taught me said that tying dye to draw is boring and no one likes to watch it. The real essence of painting dance is to draw with blood. That is, you prick your feet in advance and draw with your own blood."

Ye Wenyan frowned as he listened. Are the people of Northern Qi sick? Where do all these strange dance styles come from? Li Yanran came up with a knife-tip dance, and Ye Chulian came up with a painting dance. Who has nothing better to do than research these things all day long?

"Don't worry, Fourth Sister. I haven't learned any more in the past two days. I've also told my dance master that I don't want to learn this kind of thing. I can leave after she gets this month's salary. This kind of dance is crooked and unorthodox, and a man who likes this kind of dance may not be a good person. As for learning other things... Actually, there is nothing to learn. The tea-serving master is also leaving in the next two days. The zither player and the painter haven't been paid for their work and left three days ago."

Zhuier concluded after hearing this: "It seems that the Second Master wants the horse to run without giving it grass to eat. He wants to take advantage of others for nothing! Why is he so stingy?"

Ye Chulian said, "Not necessarily stingy, he was generous in the past, maybe he just doesn't want to cultivate me anymore! In fact, I don't care about these things, there is no loss whether I learn or not. I have fantasized that if one day I can have a small shop and let me manage it according to my own wishes, then I will open a winery and make wine myself. Fourth sister may not know, I have a unique skill in making wine, which was passed down to me by my aunt."

Ye Wenyan really didn't know this, so he asked, "Madam Liu knows how to make wine?"

"Yeah." Ye Chulian nodded. "My aunt told me that the Liu family originally ran a winery. Many years ago, the winery was opened in a deep alley in the outer city. Every time the wine was opened, the fragrance would attract many people. It really fits the saying that good wine needs no bush. My aunt has lived in the winery since she was a child. She watched my grandfather brew wine and helped taste the wine. My grandfather only had this one child, so all his skills were passed down to her. He probably started teaching her when she was five or six years old. Anyway, in my aunt's words, before she sold herself into slavery, her winemaking skills were better than my grandfather's."

Ye Chulian's eyes sparkled as she spoke these words, and she became lively. "Unfortunately, my grandfather offended someone, and the winery was smashed. My aunt was forced to sell herself into slavery and became a maid. Later, she became a concubine of the Ye family. In these years, my mother and I were the most idle people in the general's mansion. When she had nothing to do, my aunt taught me how to make wine. I practiced it secretly, and my aunt said that I was very talented and my skills were no worse than hers."

Ye Wenyan had some ideas after hearing this. She said to Ye Chulian, "I gave the Li family's clinic in the inner city to my eldest brother, and the cloth shop next door to my eldest sister. I heard that my eldest brother has been busy there these days, and it seems that he wants to connect the two shops and turn them into clinics. I think the skill of brewing wine is good, so I want to make a batch of medicinal wine. I will add the medicinal properties to the wine, and you just need to brew the wine. I will try my best to prevent the medicinal properties from affecting the taste and mouthfeel of the wine, so that people can strengthen their bodies and even cure diseases while drinking. Healing. Do you think this idea is good? "Ye Chulian's joy almost overflowed from her eyes. She grabbed Ye Wenyan's hand and was so excited that she was incoherent: "Okay, okay, that's great, I'll go and brew it now. No, no, we have to prepare the materials first, and we need a place. It can't be at home. My father and the second wife can't give it up. Otherwise, I'll go to the clinic. I'll help my eldest brother to arrange it first. I'll start when the clinic is ready. No, no, we still need silver, and it costs a lot to buy materials. Sui Xi, you hurry back to my room and see how much silver we can get together!"
