Chapter 127 Hoping the jinx will work again
Ye Yaoyao woke up from that bizarre dream once again, sitting blankly on the bed with a dazed look in her eyes.
[Host, you're dreaming again.]
Am I too tired lately? Why am I having so many strange dreams?
This time, the dream was chaotic, with various scenes intertwined illogically, but one scene was particularly clear.
A couple was leisurely swinging on a swing under a tree full of peach blossoms. She could only see their backs; no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't see their faces.
"Miss, get up and wash up." Tingqin brought in a bowl of water.
"Hmm!" Ye Yaoyao responded, slowly coming back to her senses.
Liu Langyue was invited over by Fu Ling, followed by Mu Youxi.
“Yaoyao, I ran into Youxi when I went out, so I brought her along.”
Mu Youxi smiled and said, "Sister Yaoyao, I've come uninvited, are you welcome?"
"Welcome!"
[Perfect timing!]
Ye Yaoyao glanced at Ye Jingyang.
[As expected, when Sister Mu is around, Second Brother will secretly keep an eye on her.]
Ye Xiyao and Liu Langyue looked at Ye Jingyang, and sure enough, they blushed deeply again.
[My second brother doesn't dare express his feelings because Sister Mu has a fiancé, so I'm bringing him some good news.]
Those who could hear Ye Yaoyao's thoughts remained silent. Mu Youxi sensed a subtle atmosphere, and since no one spoke, she could only pick up her tea and sip it lightly.
"Yaoyao, what did you ask Fuling to call me over for?" Liu Langyue broke the silence first.
“I met someone in the underground mall last night. I was going to ask you about it, but now I’m asking Sister Mu.”
Mu Youxi put down her teacup and looked at her.
"Little sister Yaoyao, what do you want to ask me?"
"Have you met with Xu Tianyuan?"
"I met him. He's been busy lately, but he'll be free in a few days." Mu Youxi smiled, in a very good mood.
"Oh! Do you know who in the Xu family had a child?"
Mu Youxi shook her head, her face full of doubt.
"No! Brother Xu's son is five years old. I haven't heard of any newborn in the Xu family. Yaoyao, what's wrong?"
"Last night I saw Xu Tianyuan go to buy some medicine to replenish qi and blood for postpartum women. I heard it was for his wife."
After Ye Yaoyao finished speaking, she stared intently at Mu Youxi.
"What?" Liu Langyue stood up in shock, her face full of disbelief.
"Could it be... a mistake?"
Mu Youxi was taken aback, then shook her head. She and Xu Tianyuan had known each other since childhood and shared a deep bond. She couldn't believe he would do such a thing.
"I didn't misjudge you, and I didn't mishear you, Sister Mu. You'd better get this straight."
[He didn't go to the palace last time because his son was about to be born, and he was with his mistress!]
Ye Jingyang: Shameless scoundrel. He had a son born out of wedlock before his wife even entered the family, and he kept it a secret.
Ye Xiyao: It seems that Second Brother still has a chance.
Liu Langyue glanced at Mu Youxi with sympathy and said:
"There are plenty of medicines to replenish qi and blood in pharmacies, why go to the black market to buy them?"
Mu Youxi's face turned pale instantly. If Xu Tianyuan really had a child, then she had undoubtedly been deceived for a long time.
“Youqi, this matter must be investigated thoroughly. If it’s a misunderstanding, that’s fine. If not, don’t be sad. Your uncle won’t let you suffer.”
"Let's not hang ourselves on a crooked tree. If we break off the engagement, we'll definitely find a wealthy young man who likes you."
Liu Langyue held Mu Youqi's hand, her tone full of concern.
My cousin is decisive; I give you a thumbs up.
Ye Xiyao chimed in:
"Yes! It's best to find out the truth about this. I remember you're getting married at the end of the year, so it's best not to leave yourself in the dark."
"Yes, sister is right. The fact that he could deceive you for that mother and son shows that his heart has long been biased. Sister Mu, you should think it over carefully."
For a woman, marriage is her second life; if it's not meant to be, let it go as soon as possible. Sister Mu, we all support you.
“Yes! Yes! Don’t let unworthy people hurt you,” Ye Jingyang said.
"it is good!"
Mu Youqi bit her lip. She had heard a lot about the dirty deeds of officials in the capital, and so many people cared about her. She would not let her life be wasted.
Before Mu Youxi could even grieve, several people had already given her good advice.
Haha! It's so good to be of one mind; things get done so quickly.
After Mu Youqi left, An Ruyi came to treat her. Ye Yaoyao gave her acupuncture and called the maids to weigh the medicinal herbs and boil them into a decoction.
"Be careful, make sure the dosage is neither too much nor too little."
"Yes, ma'am."
"The first time you should soak for a longer time, and the water temperature should be higher than your usual bath temperature. You must persevere."
"it is good!"
An Ruyi entered the bathhouse and felt the high temperature even before getting into the hot water. Looking at the steaming medicinal liquid, she felt like a pig waiting to be slaughtered.
Ye Yaoyao tested the water temperature and said, "It's ready, let's go in!"
An Ruyi swallowed hard, stepped into the bathtub with a death-defying resolve, and then shouted, almost running away at the last minute.
"Wow! It's so hot, it's like they're going to slaughter a pig!"
"Miss, keep it up to lose weight!" Xiao Qiu stood to the side, puffing out her cheeks and blowing air.
An Ruyi could only endure the heat of the boiling water and sit down, only her head sticking out.
Ye Yaoyao almost burst out laughing at the actions of the two women, mistress and servant.
"Keep an eye on Miss An. She can only come out when the hourglass has finished running. Also, make sure she doesn't faint. If anyone feels unwell, call me from outside."
"Yes, ma'am."
Ye Yaoyao was also hot, so she decided not to keep up and went to the pavilion outside to fan herself and cool off.
"Little sister!" Ye Li'an walked over.
"Big brother."
"I've finished reading that book."
"So fast? Have you found anything?"
"It's all just stuff about romance, nothing much to say."
Ye Li'an frowned. Chen Guojiu had twenty or thirty concubines, and he couldn't pamper them all.
Thinking of what was written in the book, I felt contempt for Chen Guojiu's absurd behavior.
"Ah! I didn't notice. Did I look at it too fast?"
Ye Li'an's face darkened, and he said irritably, "Those kinds of frivolous books aren't articles with any substance, so why should we read them carefully?"
The book says that Chen Guojiu had a woman in his heart, whom he loved but could not have.
Ye Yaoyao curled her lips, her face full of disdain.
"I think it's because they don't want him. There are so many women out there, what decent woman would want to like him? Anyone else, brother?"
"He had a close relationship with a widow and they were secretly in love. I heard that the widow's surname was Xue."
"Surname Xue?" Ye Yaoyao stopped fanning herself and stared wide-eyed.
"Yes! Her surname is Xue!" Ye Lian nodded, wondering why his little sister was so surprised.
"Big brother, your surname is Xue!" Ye Yaoyao stood up excitedly and patted his shoulder with her fan.
Could it be Xue Ruoxue?
Ye Li'an was also surprised, "Xue Ruoxue?"
"Uh-huh!"
"Is that possible?" If so, how did the two of them meet?
"When faced with hypotheses, anything is possible." Ye Yaoyao looked into the void, raised a finger, and said with a profound and unfathomable expression.
If that's the case, then Xue Ruoxue has cheated on Ye Mian.
Haha! That's exciting! Mom will put one on him too.
Ye Yaoyao was overjoyed. She put the fan to her nose to cover her silent, unrestrained laughter, but the trembling of her shoulders revealed that she was laughing hysterically.
[Host, this hasn't been confirmed yet. You're getting too excited!]
[I hope my jinx comes true again, that Xue Ruoxue cheats on Ye Mian, that Xue Ruoxue cheats on Ye Mian, hahaha...]
Hearing Ye Yaoyao happily start singing, Ye Li'an smiled along.
