Beast Taming Mad Concubine: The Useless Young Lady is Back!

When Ye Qing'an arrived at Ye Weilan's courtyard, there were already quite a few people inside.

Ye Qinghao, Liu Xueying, and two doctors were all there.

Upon seeing Ye Qing'an enter, Ye Qinghao's gaze paused slightly: "Why did you come here?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Ye Qing'an's eyes: "I... I heard from the servants that my second sister was ill, and it seemed that she was quite ill, so I said I would come to visit her."

Ye Qinghao pursed his lips and remained silent.

Liu Xueying's gaze swept over Ye Qing'an. Perhaps because she had just been reprimanded and learned her lesson about Su Yusheng, Liu Xueying was much more restrained than before, standing quietly to the side like a quail.

The doctor has already taken her pulse: "It should just be a case of catching a cold. However, the Second Miss's body is generally weak, so when she falls ill, it seems to come on rather aggressively."

The doctor went to write the prescription. Ye Qing'an looked up at the bed and saw Ye Weilan looking at her with a very sharp gaze.

Ye Qing'an raised an eyebrow and suddenly spoke up: "I heard that Second Sister and Fifth Prince have already had their fortunes checked and are about to have their horoscopes matched? Have the horoscopes been sent over yet? What if Second Sister suddenly falls ill after the horoscopes have been sent over..."

That's bad luck.

Before Ye Qing'an could finish speaking, Liu Xueying suddenly looked at him.

Liu Xueying exchanged a glance with Ye Weilan on the bed and narrowed her eyes.

"Oh, she said, 'Normally when anyone in the manor is sick, Ye Qing'an is never this attentive. Why did he make a special trip to see me today? And he came so quickly. So that's what he was waiting for here?'"

Liu Xueying sneered. Ye Qing'an herself was pregnant out of wedlock and had no way to marry into a good family, so she certainly couldn't stand seeing her Ye Weilan marry well.

Is this a prelude to sabotaging this marriage? Perhaps Wei Lan's illness today is related to Ye Qing'an.

Liu Xueying snorted coldly, but there was a hint of a smile on her face: "Thank you for your concern, Miss. However, although Weilan has met the Fifth Prince and made a verbal agreement, her birth date and time have not yet been sent over. We will have to ask for her birth date and time in a few days."

"Ah..." Ye Qing'an nodded: "Is that so? That's good. I was worried that my second sister's illness would affect her marriage. I'm relieved that everything is alright..."

rest assured?

Liu Xueying scoffed. Was she disappointed?

Fortunately, because she had been preoccupied with Su Yusheng's affairs, she hadn't sent Wei Lan's birth information over yet; otherwise, Ye Qing'an would have been amused by her.

Liu Xueying cautiously glanced at Ye Qinghao, only to see him standing silently to the side, neither speaking nor scolding Ye Qing'an, as if nothing had happened.

Liu Xueying gritted her teeth, only slightly lifting her eyes to glare at Ye Qing'an.

Liu Xueying's gaze was too obvious. Ye Qing'an knew what she was thinking, but still smiled with her eyes crinkling: "Oh, right, I brought some tonics for my second sister. The doctor said that my second sister is a little weak. After she recovers, she can drink more tonics."

Ye Qing'an turned to look at Granny Wei, who quickly presented the items and placed them on the table. Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly exclaimed "Ah!"

No one was speaking in the room, so Wei Mama's voice was all the more noticeable.

Everyone in the room looked at her. Granny Wei looked flustered, but her eyes were fixed on the dressing mirror beside her.

"Granny?" Ye Qing'an quickly called out.

Granny Wei seemed to have just come to her senses, but she was still looking at the dressing mirror.

Ye Qing'an feigned panic, glanced at Ye Qinghao, and seeing his furrowed brows, called out again, "Granny, what are you looking at?"

Only then did Granny Wei turn her head and point to the dressing mirror: "Miss, this...this dressing mirror looks like it was part of Madam's dowry?"

"What nonsense are you spouting?" Ye Qing'an frowned. "How come Mother's dowry is with my sister? More than ten days ago, Sixth Aunt gave me Mother's dowry list, saying that although she hadn't had time to go into the storeroom to check it, the storeroom list that Mother gave her was complete."

“It’s true!” Granny Wei’s eyes reddened with anxiety. “I would never mistake this dressing mirror. It was custom-made by my maternal grandfather. The ruby ​​on it was a gift from the late emperor to my maternal grandfather. There is only one ruby ​​this big in the whole world, and there is only one dressing mirror like this in the whole world.”

Ye Qing'an turned to look at Liu Xueying beside her, only to see a hint of panic finally showing on Liu Xueying's face.

Granny Wei was still looking at the other things in the room: "And this cabinet, this is also part of the lady's dowry. Although this mahogany openwork cabinet is not rare, the openwork carving on it is the lady's maiden name. Miss, take a look for yourself."

"And this jade screen, this vase, even the zither on the zither table, are all part of the lady's dowry."

Ye Weilan, unaware of the situation, was furious upon hearing this: "You lowly servant, what nonsense are you spouting? These are Ye family property, open your eyes and take a look! These things have been here for years!"

"Whether I'm talking nonsense or not, Master and Miss can check carefully and they'll know. When Madam was part of her dowry, all the items had her name on them. It's just that the names were placed in different places on different items, but they were all easy to see."

Ye Qing'an took two steps forward and examined the jade screen first: "It seems that my mother's name is indeed here."

"There's one on the bottom of this vase too."

"And my mother's name is also on the bottom of this zither..."

Ye Qing'an turned her head, her eyes filled with confusion, and seemingly brimming with tears: "What's going on?"

“A few days ago, my sixth aunt brought over my mother’s dowry list and told me that although she hadn’t opened the storeroom to check it carefully, all the dowry items were listed in the storeroom inventory book that my mother gave her.”

"She also told me that my mother's dowry was supposed to be left to me, and that I could ask her for it if I needed anything."

Ye Qing'an turned to look at Liu Xueying, whose face was somewhat pale: "But how did these things end up with Second Sister? And just now Second Sister said that these things have been with her for several years?"

Seeing the situation before him and hearing what Ye Qing'an said, Ye Qinghao understood everything. He just gave Liu Xueying a cold look and said, "Since Sixth Aunt gave you your mother's dowry list, go and take a look."

"Someone, go and call Sixth Madam over."

Granny Wei was still examining the other items in the room: "This is also part of the madam's dowry, and this is also..."

Ye Qing'an curled the corners of her lips. Liu Xueying wanted to keep the things to herself without saying a word? No way...
