Chapter 54

Ye Shijie is waiting for ginger and pear in the small building in the teahouse next door.

Early this morning, he sent someone to wait outside Jiang's house to send a message to Jiang Li's servant girl. Ye Shijie asked her to meet in the teahouse building. Although the words were brought, it was not possible that Jiang Li would come to the appointment in person.

However, Jiang Li finally arrived.

The time to enter school hasn't come yet, and it's not far from mingyitang here. Simply talking to Ye Shijie will not affect the time of entering school. Jiang Li didn't come to the appointment until she had done a good job.

In the tea house, ye Shijie was wearing a blue gray robe, although it was a simple color. When he looked carefully, the material of the dress was very exquisite, and the dark lines at the cuffs were also rare double needle embroidery. The boy's thick eyebrows and big eyes are quite handsome, but he is a little wary of looking at Jiang Li.

"Ye Biao." Jiang Li sat down opposite Ye Shijie as she spoke.

It seemed that ye Shijie was shocked by the three words "Ye Biao Ge". Ye Shijie was stunned. For a time, he didn't know what to say. After a long time, he said stiffly, "why did you help me yesterday?"

In a hurry yesterday, Jiang Li's sudden appearance helped Ye Shijie. Ye Shijie was very grateful to the little girl who helped him. But when I was sitting under the lamp at night, I suddenly felt something wrong. The second miss of the yuan family in the capital city, isn't that his dead little aunt's daughter and his cousin?

If others pull out a knife to help, ye Shijie is not sure and will not think much, but the righteous man who pulls out a knife to help turns into Jiang Li, and ye Shijie refuses to believe that there is no conspiracy in it. After tossing and turning all night, ye Shijie decided to talk to Jiang Li directly and ask what was going on.

"I call you cousin Ye. Do you want me to watch my relatives being blackmailed in the street and stand by?" Jiang Li said it very naturally, as if she was surprised why Ye Shijie asked such a simple question.

Ye Shijie was naturally choked by Jiang Li again. After a while, he sneered and said, "don't be kidding, you don't look down on our merchants, so why do relatives say?"

Hearing the words, Jiang Li said strangely, "what's the explanation of this?"

Ye Shijie glared at him angrily: "when my grandmother came to the capital to pick you up to Xiangyang, you scolded me in front of the whole Jiang family that the Ye family was a low-level merchant and wanted to cut off contact with the Ye family!" Ye Shijie said here, his chest heaved violently, and he seemed very excited: "my grandmother was seriously ill after she went back and rested in bed for a whole year. What relatives are you talking about now? Are you kidding?"

Jiang Li stared at him, blinked, and said, "did I ever say such a thing?"

Ye Shijie: "......"

"Is it because ye Biao remembers wrong?" Jiang Li shook her head. "I don't remember I said such words."

"Don't you remember?" Ye Shijie sneered, "but everyone in the Ye family remembers!"

"Ah, it seems that I did say such a thing." Jiang Li sighed in her heart. No wonder the Ye family would cut off contact with the Jiang family. If Miss Jiang Er really said such hurtful words to the old lady of the Ye family, it would be strange to mend the old friendship. However, she will not take the blame for nothing, which does not belong to her. Jiang Li said, "but I really can't remember now. Dare to ask cousin ye, how old was I when I said this?"

Ye Shijie said coldly, "five years old."

"Five years old." Jiang Li frowned, "it should be the age of the governor, but I don't remember it alone. Don't Ye Biao think it's a little strange?"

"What excuse do you want to say?" Ye Shijie stared at her.

"I want to say that I was young at that time, and my grandmother was far away in Xiangyang. My mother left early, my father was busy with government affairs, and most of them were under the care of my stepmother. What I said may not be because someone taught me or threatened me to say it."

Ye Shijie just wanted to make a few sarcastic remarks. Seeing Jiang Li's serious expression, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Jiang Li's words were a guess from the bottom of her heart. At the beginning, Miss Jiang ER was still young, but she could say such hurtful words. Besides, if Miss Jiang Er thought that merchants were cheap, someone must have instilled such a view into her. According to Jiang Li's observation of Ji shuran, Ji shuran's malevolence may not be used on the young second Miss Jiang.

Whether it is Ji shuran's coaxing or threatening, it must not be Miss Jiang er's idea, but the will of others.

Ye Shijie was silent for a moment, and Jiang Li's words shook his heart. Although there is resentment against Jiang Li, at the moment, Jiang Li's expression does not seem to be fake.

"What do you want to do now?" After a while, ye Shijie said, "want to make up with the Ye family?"

Jiang Li smiled, "I just saved brother Ye Biao once with a little effort. Brother Ye Biao thought I wanted to make up with the Ye family. You might as well tell brother ye that if I really want to repair the relationship with the Ye family, I won't lend you anything."

"Hum." Ye Shijie snorted, but his expression was not as hostile as it was at the beginning. He said, "you speak lightly and speak openly. Who doesn't know how smart you are? Otherwise, why don't you send Liu Zimin to an official and give him a step alone."

Yesterday, Liu Zimin and ye Shijie argued. Jiang Li came forward and changed the world in a few words. Originally, Liu Zimin had no place to turn over, but Jiang Li took the initiative to give Liu Zimin a step to let Liu Zimin escape.

"In the land of Yanjing, the forces of all parties are complex and there are many official households. Although the Ye family is very rich, the Ye family has no official position. Like unprotected fat meat, everyone can eat it. Cousin, isn't it because of your wealth that Liu Zimin misses you?"

Ye Shijie frowned.

"The Ye family is a rich man and a civilian. Small officials dare not fight against big officials, not to mention civilians against high-ranking officials. Liu Zimin's way of life is actually for the good of his cousin. If his cousin doesn't pester him, too often the Qing family will not give up. The Liu family can afford it, but the Ye family can't." Jiang Li Dao.

Ye Shijie found that when Jiang Li said this, her expression faded, and she seemed to have some unfulfilled hatred.

The people didn't fight with the officials, and Jiang Li's heart flashed a satirical smile, didn't it? Her Xue family is still an official family, but it's because of her small official position. In the eyes of noble people like Princess Yongning, it's nothing but fighting. There is indeed a fair truth in the world, but it depends on what we rely on. Relying on totalitarianism is unreasonable and reasonable.

Ye Shijie said, "of course I know, otherwise I won't spare him."

Jiang Li looked at Ye Shijie so clearly in her heart that the eldest son of the Ye family was not an impulsive and reckless person. She asked, "I forgot to ask, why is my cousin in Yanjing?"

For no reason, there must be a reason to come to Yanjing from Xiangyang.

"I went to school at the Imperial College." Ye Shijie looked at Jiang Li, and his tone was somewhat provocative. "As you said, the Ye family is white and unable to protect their property, so I came to the capital to study and become an official."

"Do you want to be an official?" Jiang Li suddenly.
