Chapter 287 If you don’t understand, just ask. Is the aunt in charge of the family now?
The person who spoke was Ye's aunt, Mrs. Mo, Ye Ruxuan's biological mother. At this moment, she was staring at Jiang Tunan with an unhappy look on her face.
"Why are you so excited, sister? Could it be that Miss Jiang said something wrong, or do you hope that your husband's reputation will be damaged?"
Mrs. Ye spoke suddenly. Mrs. Mo was stared at by her so hard that she didn't dare to talk back, but there was still a look of dissatisfaction on her face.
"Okay, stop arguing. It's not like being in someone else's house."
Ye Bingchun was upset by the two of them, and then looked at Jiang Tunan and asked,
"Miss Jiang, what does this mean?"
Xiao Huaimin and Zhang Yi both held higher official positions than him, so he didn't dare to talk back, but he still dared to speak up for Jiang Tunan, a little kid.
Besides, he is Jiang Tunan's elder, so it is not Jiang Tunan's turn to teach him.
"Master Ye, please don't misunderstand me. I have no other intentions. I just want to ask, Master Ye, do you want Zhenzhen to overturn her previous testimony?"
"Is Miss Jiang meddling too much?"
Before Ye Bingchun answered, Zhang Yi spoke first. He felt annoyed whenever he saw Jiang Tunan.
"I'm only here to convey my uncle's intention. If Lord Ye insists on asking Zhenzhen to overturn her previous testimony, it means that Lord Ye also thinks that I am falsely accusing Miss Zhang. It turns out that Lord Ye wants to favor the Zhang family."
When Ye Bingchun heard Jiang Tunan say this, his heart instantly rose to his throat.
"Miss Jiang, you misunderstood. That's not what I meant."
Jiang Tunan suddenly straightened his expression.
"Master Ye, Zhenzhen is the first friend I made in Kyoto. I would be very sad if there was any rift between us because of this."
Ye Bingchun was also weighing this in his mind at this time. If he helped the Zhang family, at most he would be accepting a favor from the Zhang family. In fact, judging from the arrogant attitude of those people in the Zhang family, they thought that this was what Ye Bingchun should do.
Moreover, although the Zhang family has the Meng family behind it, there has not been much interaction between the Zhang family and the Meng family in recent years. Otherwise, Zhang Yi would have become the Minister of War instead of working in the position of Vice Minister for several years.
But it is different for Jiang Tunan. Ye Ruzhen has weight in Jiang Tunan's heart. Looking at Xiao Huaimin's attitude towards Jiang Tunan just now, it shows that Jiang Tunan is very much favored by Xiao Huaimin in the Xiao Mansion. If Ye Ruzhen makes friends with him, there will be no harm.
"Master Ye, Sister Zhenzhen is also my good friend, please don't make things difficult for her."
Ji Lingyue, who was behind Jiang Tunan, stepped forward and spoke in a flat tone. Ever since Ye Bingchun had inexplicably slapped Ye Ruzhen in the face, she had no good feelings towards this Lord Jingzhao Yin.
Ye Bingchun saw that the person who was speaking was Miss Ji from the Duke of Anguo's Mansion, and he immediately made a decision.
"Don't worry. As the prefect of Jingzhao, I value the truth the most. I will never fabricate facts at will."
When it came to Jiang Tunan's words at first, Ye Bingchun was a little hesitant. After all, her surname was not Xiao and she was just a cousin after all. But Ji Lingyue in front of him was a real daughter of a duke's mansion and a famous talent in Kyoto.
Before, I only heard that Miss Ji was a low-key and solitary person, but I didn't expect that she became good friends with my eldest daughter.
"Master Ye, what does this mean?"
Zhang Yi suddenly felt something was wrong and immediately interrupted him, with a hint of threat in his tone.
"Master Zhang, if you want my daughter to testify, that's fine, but she will only say what she wants to say and will never lie for Miss Zhang."
Ye Bingchun straightened his back and spoke in a righteous manner.
"Good! Good! You are all tough guys!"
Zhang Yi felt bored, so he took his wife and daughter and left first. He didn't believe that he couldn't let Zhang Qi continue to go to school.
Mrs. Ye, Jin, immediately turned her head away, not wanting to look at Ye Bingchun's silly look. Mrs. Mo and Ye Ruxuan looked at each other without saying anything.
Before, Ye Ruxuan was particularly valued by Ye Bingchun in the Ye family because she hooked up with Leng Qingyan. But now, Ye Ruzhen is not only on good terms with the cousin of the Xiao family, but also with the daughter of the Duke's family. You should know that Ji Lingyue is a talented woman who is as famous as Leng Qingyan.
If we have to compare, Ji Lingyue's background is better than Leng Qingyan's.
"Zhenzhen, don't be afraid. Dad will definitely protect you."
Ye Bingchun thought of Ye Ruzhen in Jin's arms and said a few words to comfort her. Then he saw a moment of guilt on Ye Ruzhen's face, which still had the mark of the slap on her ear.
"Look at you. You should have explained it to me at that time. I have wrongly accused you. Come on, go home with me. I will find a doctor to take a good look at you."
Ye Ruzhen shrank into Jin's arms, seemingly unwilling to face Ye Bingchun.
Ye Bingchun was not angry, he just thought Ye Ruzhen was just being childish.
"Dad is sorry for you. So, when you go back, ask your aunt to make you a few more sets of jewelry and a few more new clothes."
Ye Ruzhen still ignored Ye Bingchun and kept her head buried in Mrs. Ye's arms.
Mrs. Ye heard Ye Bingchun's words and felt amused, but she still said,
"These are originally yours. Your father gave them to you. Just keep them. There will be many better things in the future."
Jiang Tunan just remembered that there was a concubine in the Ye Mansion. He didn't expect that the Ye Mansion was actually headed by the concubine. When he watched TV dramas before, those big mansions were all headed by the main wife. I wonder if Ye Bingchun's behavior is considered to favor the concubine and kill the wife...
Judging from the way Ye Ruxuan often yelled at Ye Ruzhen, it was estimated that Ye Ruzhen was not having a good time in the Ye Mansion.
Jiang Tunan opened his mouth to say something, but didn't know how to start, so he could only look at the person next to him.
"Master Ye, the girls' school has a few assignments that require three people to work together. I wonder if I can invite Sister Zhenzhen to stay at my house for a few days?"
When Ye Bingchun saw that Ji Lingyue actually directly invited Ye Ruzhen to go to the Duke's Mansion to play, he was naturally very willing and agreed almost immediately.
When Xiao Mingxu saw the displeasure in Jiang Tunan's eyes, he knew why Jiang Tunan was unhappy and pushed Ji Yichen.
At first, Ji Yichen was a little confused. Why would Brother Mingxu do this to him? Later, when he saw Xiao Mingxu's warning look, he reacted and immediately pretended to be casual and said,
"It's really strange, why is it that the concubine is the head of Lord Ye's family? Sorry, my father doesn't have any concubines, so I don't know much about this, but I see that other people's families are headed by the main wife."
Ji Yichen's innocent expression and his clear yet foolish eyes really made people think that he didn't do it on purpose. Even if Ji Yichen obviously did it on purpose, Ye Bingchun didn't dare to do anything.
"Well...haha, it takes a lot of effort to run the housework. My wife is not in good health, so I let her have a good rest and recuperate."
Ye Ruxuan was already feeling unbalanced when she saw Ye Bingchun giving Ye Ruzhen so many benefits at once. Now she heard others say this, so she couldn't help but speak out.
"Of course, this kind of thing should be handled by the capable. If my mother can't handle it, it will naturally be given to my aunt."
"Shut up!"
Ye Ruxuan was about to continue speaking, but Mrs. Mo pulled Ye Ruxuan back and shook her head. Ye Bingchun glared at Ye Ruxuan fiercely, then spoke in a flattering tone,
"Since Zhenzhen is going to stay in the Duke's Mansion for a few days, we will leave first."
Afterwards, Ye Bingchun did not forget to instruct Ye Ruzhen,
"Zhenzhen, please behave yourself in this family's house and don't cause any trouble for them."
So everyone in the Ye family also left the Xiao Mansion, leaving only a few young people on the field.
"I guess they have a lot to say, let's avoid them for now."
Xiao Mingrui took Xiao Mingxu and Ji Yichen away, and Jiang Tunan took Ji Lingyue and Ye Ruzhen back to his own courtyard.
