Reborn: Legendary Female General Is Here! 24 The Calm Before The Storm

"Furen how may I help you?" Xiao Fei asked the lady standing arrogantly in front of Ye FengTian's courtyard.

She had wrinkles on her face that was covered by visible powder and makeup. It made her look some-what younger, however strangely the face still looked haggard.

She had eyes like a snake but a small face, the tall lady also had brownish dark hair, with strands of white hairs visible.

"I'm here to send some medicine for the youngest Miss. Move aside." She spoke arrogantly, although she managed to maintain a smile filled with no mirth.

"I'm sorry, Furen, but our young Miss instructed us to prevent anyone from entering." With one arm raised Xiao Fei stood unwavering at the entrance of Yue courtyard, Ye FengTian's secluded courtyard.

"Hmph! Now even a lowly maid like you dared to stop me from entering a manor's courtyard! This is how your young Miss has taught you?!" The snake face like woman stood yelling arrogantly, however no matter how much she yelled and shouted, no one paid her any heed, after all she had been like this since Ye Chen Xue was sent away, of course everyone would ignore her screams and shouts, a.s.suming it was just the mansion's madman making a big fuss again.

"Xiao Fei. Why is there a pig screaming outside my room?" A ice cold voice suddenly seeped through the closed doors behind Xiao Fei, making everyone in the courtyard suddenly go silent, their backs filled with cold sweat for some reason.

When Ye Chen Fu heard that icy voice that sounded heavenly, it almost pierced her vile heart!

She felt like a lump had formed within her throat, choking her and making her unable to utter even a single protest.

Finally, the maid that had gone along with the madam realised it was the youngest Miss talking, so out of basic etiquette and rules she bowed and greeted her.

Seeing this, the rest of the courtyard also seemed to snap out of their short daze.

"Youngest Miss, I think you have it wrong, our madam was actually just here to deliver some medicine soup to you out of kindness, however this lowly maid dared to stop her." The maid explained with a restrained arrogant expression similar to that of her master.

Suddenly, before Ye Chen Fu could even nod at her maid words, a shadow had appeared behind them.

"Oh really? I don't think that's what I heard." A old and rusty voice suddenly came out behind from where Ye Chen Fu was standing.

s.h.i.+vering, Ye Chen Fu immediately reconsider who that voice belonged too!

Her originally frightened state had just recovered some dignity before she instantly began cowering in fear.

Suddenly the door to Ye FengTian's room burst open, and standing in front of the open door was an old middle aged man with silver hair and a visibly hunched back.

"I came too deliver medical soup to you, yet instead I heard a pig screaming outside your courtyard, however, what surprises me the most is that I hadn't expected your 'sick' self to be fully dressed and standing by your bed?" The middle aged old man faced Ye FengTian with clear grey eyes. His other hand was holding a pot of soup that glistened in the morning light, he stared right into Ye FengTian's cold and unwavering amethyst eyes.

An unexpected tension started to build up within the room.
