It was a light drizzle that night, and the sound of the patter of the rain disturbed people's peace.
Ye Jinsu did not normally feel shallow, mixed with the sound of the rain and had several chaotic dreams. In the dream, Ning Yunyin's cold and stiff face looked at him. She turned around and left, but she could no longer find him. Then a bright red scarf covered his face, and when it was pulled back, he saw the face of a strange man.
He woke up covered in cold sweat.
Ye Jinsu sat on the bed with a lingering fear in her heart. She clutched her chest, not daring to think about that dream.
The rain outside had not stopped. The drizzle had turned into drizzling rain, drifting like mist.
Xiao Hong ran over from the courtyard with an umbrella. It somewhat angrily put away the umbrella, as if it had met with some discontent. He raised his eyes and saw that Ye Jinsu was already awake. His expression immediately changed as he walked in and said, "I just came over from the Qing Lotus Courtyard. I heard from Mother Li that Second Miss had caused trouble in the courtyard a few times."
"They were all stopped by Mother Li. They didn't manage to get out." Little Red said excitedly. If Mrs Li was a formidable person, Ye Chong had sent a group of people into the yard behind him. She was also extremely obedient.
After being slapped twice, Ye Jingru felt indignant and wanted to complain to Ye Zhonglou. The whole yard was full of people who were looking for her.
She could only blame herself for getting what she deserved. She was usually domineering and overbearing, not lacking in harsh treatment for others.
Xiao Hong just treated it as a joke and felt much better.
As expected.
She had been in the Ye Residence for a few months. She had almost grasped the personality of everyone in the mansion. Mother Li was a person who only cared about profit. She liked to rush to places where there were too many benefits.
It was because of this that the old lady did not like him.
Even the Xie Clan and Ye Jingru were being punished. She had no backer, and she was also rushed here to do such a useless thing. Naturally, she was dissatisfied.
Ye Jinsu gave him some silver and naturally bought it.
After getting up from the bed, Ye Jinsu rubbed the sore shoulder from last night, and asked casually, "Where's Wenyuan?"
Xiao Hong ran over to massage Ye Jinsu's shoulders and looked at her in puzzlement, as if it didn't understand why she asked about Wen Yuan.
"It seems rather pitiful. I heard that she has frequently let out her anger for the past few days." Xiao Hong shrugged and replied. Wenyuan also deserved to be punished for her crimes. Usually, her nostrils were long and her forehead was slick. She would never look directly at anyone. Now, it was her turn to suffer.
"Miss, why do you care about her?"
Ye Jinsu sat in front of the mirror and combed her hair. She looked at Little Red in the mirror and slowly said, "You said that when Wen Yuan has such a master, wouldn't she have to change sides one day?"
Xiao Hong opened its mouth, that was possible.
However, Wen Yuan had grown up with Ye Jingru, and the mother and daughter of the Xie family were so ruthless. If Wen Yuan were to turn the tables on her, the final result would be that she would not even be left with a corpse.
"Will she?" Xiao Hong asked uncertainly.
"Who knows?" Ye Jinsu put down her comb and smiled at her. She didn't seem to care much about this. Compared to this, she had something else to ask Xiao Hong, "Did you go to collect the money this morning?"
It was a question, but it didn't sound like a question at all. It sounded like she was certain that Little Red was going to collect the money in the morning.
Xiao Hong guiltily gripped the hem of its clothes as it looked around. Seeing Ye Jinsu's face that even I know about, I knew that I would be unable to hide it from her. I could only lower my head and lightly nod my head, worrying that Ye Jinsu would be angry.
Ye Jinsu sighed.
When she woke up, she saw Xiao Hong running back angrily. It was still running back in the direction of the front yard. When she saw him, she immediately changed her expression and told him about Ye JinRu. She never asked Xiao Hong to ask about the Qing He Yuan.
What can I do for you to stop by the Qing He Courtyard?
Wasn't this the matter of her receiving money in the past few days? Ever since Ye Jinsu told her about the lack of money, Little Red had started to run outside. It had run a few times already, but it was still running. It must have come back empty-handed.
No wonder Xiao Hong, the woman who sent the money was too amazing.
Old Lady Wang, who gave him the monthly allowance, was a couple with the Honorable Master, who was in charge of the household accounts. She had read and wrote books. The two of them had worked in the Ye residence for decades. The Old Master and the Old Master trusted them. However, this Old Lady Wang knew how to make false accounts and couldn't find fault with her.
Originally, she and Ye Jingru had the same amount of silver each month. However, each time, she could only get half of it at most. Sometimes I don't get it at all. After so many years, who knew how many had been taken out. Otherwise, Ye Jinsu wouldn't have been so frugal with her savings.
Ye Jinsu looked at Little Red and asked, "You didn't bring it back this time?"
The tone of her voice did not sound angry, but Xiao Hong was slightly relieved.
She had gone to ask for it several times, tried everything, and been driven away. Thinking that it might be detrimental to xiaojie if he were to blow up the situation, Zhang Xuan swallowed his anger.
Nodding her head, Xiao Hong spoke in a slightly depressed tone, "That old woman Wang worked hard for Madam previously, and all of Miss Concealed's money is with Madam. Now that you've secretly made a living, you probably have it in your own pocket!"
Other than these, the daily expenses and accounts of the other residences were basically handled by the two of them. He didn't know how many fake accounts he had made in the middle and how much money he had secretly hidden in the house.
Unfortunately, she didn't have any other methods.
Ye Jinsu also knew the situation and slightly frowned. Earlier, the authority to manage the estate was in the hands of the Xie Clan. Later, when the Xie Clan was chased out, the authority to manage the estate fell onto Ye Jingru and Old Granny's hands.
Now that Ye Jingru was punished, the authority naturally fell on the old lady.
Narrowing his eyes, Ye Jinsu's eyes lit up, "I'm afraid he won't be able to get the money back easily."
When Xiao Hong heard this, its originally drooping head drooped even lower, like a rabbit without spirit.
"So if you want to come back, you have to do something big." Ye Jinsu raised her head to look at Little Red and curled the corner of her lips, as if she already had a plan in her heart.
Xiao Hong opened her eyes wide, not understanding the meaning behind Ye Jinsu's words.
Ye Jinsu let out a meaningful smile and suddenly asked, "Grandmother doesn't seem to have gone out to pay respects to Buddha in a long time, right?"
Xiao Hong shook her head and said, "Previously, I said that it was because my old lady's health was not good, so I shouldn't tire myself out too much. Previously, I heard from the old lady that someone wanted to go out. However, due to the recent bad weather, I was delayed. "
"Miss, why are you asking this?" Xiao Hong asked in confusion.
Ye Jinxiu lowered her eyes in thought for a moment before she suddenly smiled and said, "I heard that a new Master has appeared in the West Mountain. His name is Dharma, and many people went there to seek his fortune."
"I'm sure Grandmother will be interested."
However, apart from that, she remembered something else.
He couldn't let the old lady only think about how to deal with him and Ye Jingru. He had to let her worry about something else.
