Chapter 100 Part 1: Bloom
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Xiangyang city was peaceful for the time being.
Li Zheng Tang shut their doors. Whether it was by coincidence, or the result of the Ye family’s silver, in the next two to three days, there were no commoners coming to Li Zheng Tang or the Ye residence to cause trouble.
The Ye residence was calm. On the contrary, Tong Zhi Yang, the magistrate of Xiangyang, had run into some trouble.
“What, madam and young master disappeared?” Tong Zhi Yang slapped the table and stood up.

He and the Madam Tong in the residence, the wife he bound hairs with, treated each other as honored guests. However, the people in Xiangyang knew him as being henpecked. Tong Zhi Yang was very clear, if it weren’t for his wife’s family promoting him, afraid he wouldn’t even be sitting in this prefectural magistrate position. Therefore, after so many years, Tong Zhi Yang did not dare to disobey his wife’s commands.
But in the end, he couldn’t hold back his loneliness. Though he did not visit the brothels, he raised an outer room at the edge of the city walls. The outer room was someone smart, gentle and considerate, much more adorable than the tigress at home. Privately, Tong Zhi Yang let his subordinate call the outer room as “madam”. He actually had feelings towards this outer room. After many years, he insisted on keeping her by his side even when facing so much danger. In particular, because his primary wife did not birth a son for him, while the outer room gave birth to his descendant. Tong Zhi Yang was even more reluctant to leave the mother and son.
He concealed the mother and son very well. Apart from his trusted aide, nobody knew about them. Otherwise he would not have been able to keep them from the people around for so many years. Now suddenly hearing the disappearance of the mother and son, he nearly shouted in alarm.
“What’s going on? Did He-shi discover it?” He-shi was precisely the magistrate’s wife. Thinking of this, cold sweat came out from Tong Zhi Yang’s whole body. If the existence of the mother and child was known to this snake scorpion woman, including his son would most possibly be killed.
That is his only descendant!
His trusted aide promptly shook his head to deny: “No! Master, it’s still unknown who this person is, but a letter was left behind, saying to borrow madam and young master for a few days and will return them later.”
“Preposterous!” Tong Zhi Yang exploded in anger, “What does he treat me as? Is it a commodity?” Tong Zhi Yang examined in a stern voice: “What’s their plan? Demanding money? Or have a complaint?”
“This…..” His aide also could not tell the reason why. Supposed that the party was seeking money, there was no mention of silver in the letter. If having a vendetta, should just kill at the scene, it’s not necessary to retain them. It looked like blackmail, but it’s not known what it’s blackmailing for. The most important thing was, the mother and son’s existence were concealed so much, yet how did these people discover? Could there be an enemy within their own ranks?
“Grabbing people in my territory, I think they are tired of living!” Tong Zhi Yang snorted coldly. Then he commanded: “Search! Dig one meter down, must bring madam and young master back to me!”
The aide accepted his order, then saw Tong Zhi Yang paused before continuing to say: “Don’t move too big, don’t let He-shi find out.”
In the end, he was still refraining from shooting at the rat for fear of breaking the vase.
……
Jiang Li learned that Tong Zhi Yang’s outer room, Ruan Su Qin, and her son were already settled through Ye Ming Yu’s mouth.
Ye Ming Xuan and Ye Ming Hui still weren’t able to return home. However, perhaps because Jiang Li moved out Jiang Yuan Bai’s name, Tong Zhi Yang did not dare to treat them rudely. When Guan-shi and Zhuo-shi went there again, the guard at the gate no longer scowled coldly at them. Instead he let them go in to meet Ye Ming Xuan and Ye Ming Hui.
Although the two people stayed in jail, it could be considered clean and they did not sustain any injuries. After inquiring about the happenings in the past few days and learning that the present was relying on Jiang Li to oversee, they were both surprised then sighed inevitably. At first they thought that a pampered young lady of the official did not ask about the affairs in the world. They did not foresee that at the critical moment, she was the one who unexpectedly saved the Ye family. The previous alienation and vigilance towards Jiang Li were mostly gone all of a sudden.
The two people instructed the Ye family not to act blindly in these few days and to calmly observe the changes. Wait for the people from the Weaving Unit to arrive in Xiangyang and guard against people from the back from making calculations. If this time the Ye family was truly being calculated by someone, that person definitely would not be willing to take things lying down and might still try to find opportunities.
After Guan-shi and Zhuo-shi returned, they passed these things to the rest of the Ye family members from beginning to end, and to Jiang Li, they also relayed the gratitude from the two brothers. Jiang Li smiled and accepted , probably seeing the truth during trials and tribulation, passing through the same burden and having the same experience, from then on, the Ye family treated Jiang Li more affectionately.
Including Ye Ru Feng, he no longer threw his face away, but he still was not as amiable as Ye Jia Er.
However, due to the absence of the two brothers, the matter of Jiang Li meeting with old madam Ye could only be set aside for now. If old madam Ye found out that the Ye family was now in a difficult situation, it wouldn’t be food if she was both mentally and physically exhausted. Everyone tacitly guarded this secret.
Ye Ming Yu waited until the other people had scattered before finding a chance to secretly speak to Jiang Li: “The thing is already carried through.”
“Uncle Ming Yu can ensure that they absolutely won’t be snatched by Tong Zhi Yang?” Jiang Li asked.
“Of course.” Ye Ming Yu said: “How could the ability of my people to conceal be found so easily? Moreover, Tong Zhi Yang is afraid that his wife will become aware of this matter and did not dare to find people with great fanfare. Thus it became even more convenient.”
Jiang Li laughed and said: “Then many thanks to Uncle Ming Yu.”
“What are you thanking me for,” Ye Ming Yu said: “This is originally the Ye family’s housework, so to say, it’s our Ye family that thank you.”
“It’s all one family, no need to be so courteous.” Jiang Li smiled.
Hearing this, Ye Ming Yu’ heart felt very smooth. Yes, such a clever and excellent girl is their Ye family’s niece, so happy when thinking about it. If not, in Tong Zhi Yang’s residence, why isn’t there such a lovable and charming niece? They don’t have such a fate.
The two people chatted while walking to the gate. The Ye residence was situated in the most expensive plot of land in Xiangyang. This strip of the street was full of Xiangyang’s wealthy families. As a result, there were not many houses on this street. Every single house was a mansion, especially wide, occupying a lot of land.
Yet at this moment, there’s the faint sound of opera singing that came through.
