In just a few days, the kitchen was the first to change sides.
Xiao Hong angrily returned from the kitchen, holding its food box as it fumed with rage.
"Miss, look at what they are!" Xiao Hong slammed the box on the table. It was so angry that its teeth were itching, "It's just that the things that I asked for a few days ago were a little light, that's why they sent these rotten vegetables and leaves!"
Ye Jinsu glanced at the table. It wasn't as exaggerated as Xiao Hong said. She couldn't even pick up a rotten leaf.
However, they were definitely not fresh vegetables. They were probably vegetables that had been stored overnight. Originally, these were all for the servants to eat.
Before Ye Jinsu was sick, the kitchen could still deliver some good stuff every few days. What weight did Ye Jinru and Xie Clan have, and what weight did she have left? With her current illness, the kitchen had directly sent over some food for the servants to eat.
No wonder Xiao Hong was so angry.
Ye Jinxiu didn't have any reaction, and she had already expected this.
Taking out a bag from the box, Ye Jinxiu raised her eyebrows, "Come, I'll take you out to eat."
Little Red opened its mouth wide and stared at Ye Jinxiu blankly. After a long while, it finally reacted and shook its head, "No, Miss, you don't have much savings. If you use it up, how will you live in the future?"
Not much?
Ye Jinsu frowned and opened the bag. There were only some crushed silver inside.
Indeed, there weren't that many.
In the past, Ye Jinsu's life had been pretty good, but this was all because she had been frugal all these years. The money she had saved through her teeth was really not much. With a sigh, Ye Jinsu kept her purse, "It's enough to eat any amount of food. There's something important to do this time."
After changing into an ordinary set of clothes made out of coarse cloth, Ye Jinsu didn't focus on eating.
"Let's go see someone later."
Xiao Hong looked at Ye Jinsu's equipment, and at the ready, it became serious, "Miss, who are we going to meet?"
"Hong Yun."
Passing through the backyard, she walked to a quiet corner and lightly climbed over the wall. Ye Jinxiu patted her clothes. She could have asked Shuo Feng Qing Gong to take her there, but she didn't want to be carried.
I might as well flip over it myself.
They left the House of Ye and went all the way to an old house on the west side of the city.
This was a desolate place, with few people walking about on normal days, and this was the house that had been abandoned for many years.
The wild grass outside had grown several zhang in depth.
At the door, Bei Feng stood guard and said softly, "Miss, Hong Yun is inside."
Ye Jinxiu nodded and pushed the door open. The old wooden door creaked and dust fell to the ground.
Ye Zichen woke up the sleeping Hong Yun and Ruo Hua.
"Long time no see." Ye Jinsu looked at the two who were tied up and softly spoke with a smile.
Hong Yun's slightly tired expression suddenly opened, and the person who came before her gradually became clear. It was her! Hong Yun struggled desperately on the chair, but her hands and feet were tied, and her mouth was sealed.
She had thought that it was Lady Xie who had tied her up and prepared to untie her.
He didn't expect it to be Ye Jinsu.
Why did she want to save him?
Ruohua, who was at the side, was startled by Hong Yun's sudden action. She opened her eyes wide and continued to ask her for help. Although she had been in the mansion for a while, she rarely walked around and didn't even recognize the person.
Seeing Hong Yun's reaction, she thought that it was to kill the two of them. Ruohua's tears of fear fell as she begged for mercy.
Ye Jinsu took two steps forward and tore away the rag in Hong Yun's mouth.
With nothing left in her mouth, Hong Yun impatiently asked, "Miss, what are you doing?"
Ye JinSu tilted her head to look at Hong Yun, who was still relatively calm. She had calmed down so quickly. It was indeed not bad. No wonder the Xie Clan chose her to go over to Si Xiang's side. It seemed like she was the one who had been chosen since she was young.
In comparison, Ruohua was more nervous, curling up and trembling.
She took a chair and sat across from Hong Yun, then said, "I saved you, what do you think I wanted you to do?"
It was not hard to guess.
Ye Jinsu and the Xie family were sworn enemies. She also had the Xie Clan's weakness in her hands. Other than wanting to use her to topple the Xie Clan, what other reason could she possibly have?
Hong Yun quickly answered, "First Miss wants me to identify Madam?"
Ye Jinsu smiled. It was easy to talk to smart people, "Yes, it's like you said."
Hong Yun lowered her head to look at her tied up body, showing disobedience, "Why does Eldest Miss think that I would identify Madam for you? I have been by her side for so many years."
She had already guessed Ye Jinsu's purpose for saving her from the moment she saw him. She was just worried that Ye Jinxiu would be like the Xie Clan, using them to silence them.
After all, she understood that Ye Jinxiu wasn't a good person.
Ye Jinsu looked at the expression on Hong Yun's face and knew what she was doing. She replied with an irrelevant answer, "Don't worry, you've never hurt me before. I'm not like the Xie family. I won't kill you."
"All of you will be alive and well."
The moment she said that, Hong Yun became silent.
Ye Jinxiu's words made sense. As matters stood, she could only trust Ye Jinsu. The Xie Clan wholeheartedly wanted to kill her, but there was no hope for them right now.
But...
Nanny Liu was still in the Xie Clan's hands.
Hong Yun hesitated. She was willing to give up her life, and only hoped that the Xie Clan would not harm Nanny Liu.
Ye Jinsu seemed to have seen through Hong Yun's thoughts, she opened her mouth at the right time and said, "Your mother is still alive."
Hong Yun suddenly raised her head, thinking that she had misheard.
"Nanny Liu, I have already saved her." Ye Jinxiu repeated herself.
This time, Hong Yun's expression changed drastically. After struggling a few times to think it through, she had no choice but to shout at Ye Jinsu, "Where is she!? I want to see her! "
Her movements were too big, causing the chair to sway a little. Xiao Hong went up to stop her from moving.
"I will let you see her if you agree to my request."
"And you." Ye Jinsu turned her head to look at Ruohua at her side. "You were originally someone close to Si Xiang, but you betrayed her."
"Now that she is dead and you have no money, she is still being hunted. Maybe she will be killed the moment she leaves this place." Ye Jinsu spoke slowly, and her drawling tone also made her fear.
She had been greedy for money, but now that she was about to lose her life, she no longer cared about money.
"I promise, I promise!" Ruo Hua cried and said, "I only hope that Eldest Miss can give me a way out, I'm willing to work hard for Eldest Miss."
Ruohua's reaction was expected. Ye Jinsu turned her head to Hong Yun and asked, "Have you thought about it?"
Hong Yun's breathing trembled. She was considering whether Ye Jinsu's words were trustworthy or not.
What if Ye Jinsu was lying to her?
Hong Yun cautiously said, "I want to meet my mother first."
