Golden Age Legitimate Fei Chapter 69

First Visit to Ye Family after Wedding (1)

Qing Luan and the other maids followed Ye Li, who was usually mild and gentle while now left in a gloomy mood . The maids gazed at each other helplessly . Since the water pavilion was too far from the lakeside none of them had heard clearly what His Highness and Princess was talking about .

Qing Xia asked hesitantly: “Could it be that His Highness bullied Miss?”

Qing Shuang’s face turned dark: “What? His Highness bullied Miss?”

Qing Luan and Qing Yu had no choice but to stop Qing Shuang who was about to flare up . Qing Luan couldn’t help but twitch her mouth . She had seen what skill the princess got, who could knock consciousness out of a strong man without even quickening her breath . How could His Highness ever bully the princess sitting in a wheelchair?

Qing Yu thought about it and said: “Let’s ask Ah Jin about it later . He must know what happened . ”

Qing Shuang pursed her mouth: “He remained at the lakeside as we did . How would he know?”

Qing Shuang chimed in: “He has been by His Highness’s side since he was young so he must know how His Highness irritated princess . Let’s go, we are already left behind . ”

Ye Li let loose a stream of abuse against Mo Xiu Yao secretly while walking to her yard at a fast pace . She was quite blind to have taken him for a gentleman and she regretted having thought that he was a pure soul . How could he take liberties with . . . no, tease her? Jealous? Jealous . . . Idiot, she would never be jealous for a man that she hadn’t known for long . It was at most her dislike of others casting their greedy eyes on her stuff .

“Princess, what happened?” As soon as Ye Li got into the yard, Wei mama was out to greet her and asked her seeing how gloomy Ye Li looked . She was away from this miss who was brought up by her for several years so Wei mama had been giving Ye Li all the love that she didn’t have at the same time . n.o.body else could care more about Ye Li’s mood and health than Wei mama .

Hearing that from Wei mama, Ye Li started to feel quite embarra.s.sed . She knew clearly that it was her who overreacted so she wasn’t proud to say that she was teased by Mo Xiu Yao and left impetuously . She hurriedly took Wei mama’s hand and said: “Mama, I asked you to take a good rest, didn’t I? If you are around me all the time, I’m afraid your little grandson wouldn’t recognize you any longer . ” Both Lin mama and Wei mama’s family followed Ye Li and moved to the manor . Ye Li let those capable men from their families manage the stores or farms outside the manor and the women stay in her yard . Ordinarily she wouldn’t let them serve her if possible, especially Lin mama who was quite advanced in years . It wouldn’t be easy for them to run around following a young woman like her .

Wei mama looked at her and said a little sentimentally: “Miss, you are a grownup now . Are you turning your back on me now?”

“Mama . . . ” Ye Li felt a headache . Not this again! But at least she had drawn Wei mama’s attention away . Taking Wei mama’s hand and going inside, Ye Li’s soft words consoled Wei mama and made her beam with smiles .

“Princess, Ah Jin is here . ” Qing Shuang went inside with anger on her pretty little face . Apparently, she was angry at Ah Jin before she got inside .

“Let him in . ” Ye Li smiled with ridicule . “Who made our Shuang-er angry?”

Qing Shuang blushed and stamped on her feet: “Miss! Who else except that fool Ah Jin . He thinks he could wear a cold expression like a dead man everywhere he goes like everyone owes him 500 Liang just because he is one of His Highness’s men . ”

Ye Li sighed grudgingly: “Qing Shuang, you are being difficult on purpose . Ah Jin just doesn’t talk much . He is far from a dead man . ” Mo Jing Li was the one who looked like a dead man . Ah Jin was merely a man of few words . His young and immature cold face couldn’t even be compared with her second brother's .

Ah Jin walked inside holding a box and glanced at Qing Shuang without any expression . Qing Shuang knew that he had heard her badmouth him and turned her face away with a guilty conscience . Ye Li laughed secretly but looked at Ah Jin with a serious face: “Ah Jin, what is it?” Ah Jin put the box on the table, stepped back then said: “His Highness told me to bring it here . His Highness . . . His Highness also said that he didn’t irritate you on purpose and princess, you are a person with great, great stature, please don’t take offense . He said that with a stammer .

Ye Li figured that out herself and looked at Ah Jin with a warm smile: “Ah Jin, who taught you the last sentence?”

Ah Jin blushed, looked at Ye Li blankly and didn’t know what to do . Both Princess and His Highness were wise and a lie would never remain intact in front of them . Ah Jin silently kept that fact in the bottom of his heart .

Ye Li added with a laugh: “His Highness will never say something like that . Besides, I’m not irritated . I’ll keep it . You can go now . ”

Ah Jin left without saying anything . Ye Li opened the box in a good mood . In it she found the painting which she kept thinking about . A while ago she was considering how to get the painting back . It didn’t occur to her that Mo Xiu Yao would be so thoughtful and have Ah Jin send it to her in such a short time . Opening the painting on the table, Ye Li stared at the woman in the painting and sighed slightly . And Mo Xiu Yao's voice rang in her mind: “I think this is the real Ah Li . ”

“So beautiful . . . ” Qing Shuang cried excitedly standing by Ye Li's side . “Miss, is this painted by His Highness? It's so beautiful . ”

Wei mama also nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: “His Highness really cares about you . It turns out Mr . Xu and his first son was right about him . Hehe . . . ”

Ye Li was speechless . It was just a painting!
