Chapter 95 Negotiations
The carriage quickly stopped in front of an alley. Inside the alley were rows of small mansions. The people living in these houses were basically rich foreigners who were not used to living in restaurants and inns.

Seeing the master and servant over there getting out of the carriage and turning into the alley, Shen Ci hurriedly got out of the carriage and followed. He saw Ye Lingwu looking around for something, and finally stopped in front of a mansion.

The mansion was magnificently built, and there was only a courtyard with white walls and black tiles. The walls were high and the courtyard was deep. The green emerald jade fills the eyes of animals.

Tall buildings and long beams, wide roofs and open roofs, those who can rent such a mansion must be rich or expensive.

Rongxiu was knocking on the door, but there was no movement inside.

Ye Lingwu pursed her lips, and the anger that had been suppressed for a few days finally gradually came out.

Her father is truly the first in the world to come to the capital to beg for help and put on airs.

Ye Lingwu frowned: "Sister Rongxiu, stop knocking. Since others don't want to open the door, let's go home now, lest other people think we are greedy for that bowl of tea."

As soon as the voice fell, the door creaked open.

The one who came to open the door was Mother Qiu beside Liu Yuping. She looked like she had rushed out from the inside in a hurry, and said happily as she opened the door: "The eldest lady is here! Oh, the eldest lady is here, the lord and the eldest lady have arrived in the capital." It’s been two days, and I’ve boiled a pot of good tea in the house, just waiting for the girl to come!”

Ye Lingwu had already seen through the warm smirk on Qiu's mother's face, and quietly watched her speak with a cold face.

Qiu's mother was not embarrassed, and continued: "I haven't seen the eldest girl for more than half a year. The eldest girl has grown a lot taller, and her face has become more rounded. I think the life in Ningbeihou's mansion is very comfortable. I just said that the eldest girl is a life that can enjoy life!"

Mother Qiu's voice was so loud that even Shen Ci who was standing at the corner could listen to it seriously, it was really noisy.

Shen Ci took a look with his eyes, thinking that since she was from the family, it should be a happy thing, why is this girl still sullen.

Feeling strange, Ye Lingwu asked coldly, "Where's Aunt Liu?"

The corners of Qiu's mother's mouth twitched, and her smile faded: "The eldest lady is asking about the eldest lady. The eldest lady is in the back room. The eldest lady should go in with the slaves, the master is waiting for you."

Ye Lingwu calmly avoided Qiu's mother's entangled hand, and said mockingly: "I don't know that a concubine's younger brother made a mistake, and the master of the family will come to the capital in trouble. Why, isn't that letter written by Aunt Liu? , since she wants to see me, why doesn't she greet me in person?"

Qiu's mother was stunned, but felt that the situation was very familiar.

Yes, she almost forgot that Ye Lingwu was pampered and domineering in the past, but she lost her temper only after being thrown to Qingquan Temple.

But this also means that a wolf is not a wolf without teeth.

Mother Qiu couldn't organize her words for a long time. To be honest, Ye Lingwu's temperament has changed a lot after staying in Ningbeihou's Mansion for more than half a year.

Seeing Qiu's mother staring blankly, Rongxiu said, "This mother doesn't understand what our girl is saying? Our girl wants Aunt Liu to greet her in person, why don't you hurry up and pass it on?"

As soon as the words fell, a roar came from the mansion: "Your envoys of Ningbeihou's Mansion are really magnificent!"

It was Ye Huaicheng's voice.

Ye Lingwu passed Mother Qiu into the mansion, and saw Ye Huaisheng standing on the porch, with a dark face, hands behind his back, still wearing a dark brocade robe, and a conspicuous Jade Buddha chain around his neck.

Pretend.

Facing Ye Huaicheng's anger, Ye Lingwu was very calm: "Ningbeihou's mansion is really magnificent, otherwise father, you would not dare to visit the door for [-]%, so you can only ask someone to write a letter quietly, saying that you want to meet me .”

Hearing this, Ye Huaicheng pointed at Ye Lingwu angrily and said, "How dare you speak to your father like that? It seems that Mrs. Shen really didn't teach you well, making you as disrespectful as before!"

Ye Lingwu was silent.

At first she didn't want to conflict with Ye Huaicheng, she had learned to control her temper over the years, but in front of Ye Huaicheng, she just couldn't control it.

Especially in the capital city, where she can pretend to be powerful, why should she look at their faces? Ye Lingwu still suppressed the sarcasm that came to her lips.

"My lord, be careful, this place is in the capital!" Liu Yuping walked out from the hall.

I haven't seen her for more than half a year. The aunt who I remember always loves to dress up is now wearing a plain dress and her hair is much simpler. Not to mention the makeup on her face, she looks like a different person.

If Ye Lingwu didn't know Liu Yuping's virtues well, she would have thought she was a woman from a noble family.

Ye Lingwu's eyes showed contempt.

Liu Yuping turned a blind eye and said with a smile: "Miss must be thirsty after being here for so long. I just made a cup of good tea. Miss, come in and have a taste?"

Seeing that she could still pretend, Ye Lingwu also pretended, and replied: "That's really troublesome Auntie."

The corners of Liu Yuping's mouth froze, and the smile on her face collapsed uncontrollably at the word "Auntie", and she nodded the corners of her eyes with silk grievances: "Young lady still doesn't recognize me as a aunt, that's all, I'm not good enough, Who said that the eldest girl is now raised in Ningbeihoufu."

Ye Lingwu glanced at her, and before she could speak, she heard Ye Huaicheng say: "Unfilial daughter, Yuping is your father's official wife who entered the genealogy in person, and is your aunt. ?”

The hands under Ye Lingwu's sleeves were clenched into fists, and she looked at Ye Huaicheng calmly, "I only have one aunt, and that is my biological mother. If my father is not used to it, I will call her the eldest lady in the future." That's right."

Liu Yuping stopped her tears, took Ye Huaicheng's arm and said, "My lord, don't get angry with the eldest girl, let's go into the house and talk."

In the hall, the small censer on the table spewed out circles of white smoke, and the scent of tea permeated the air.

Liu Yuping is good at begging for help. She knows what to wear and how to put on a good posture. She is so smart that her hypocrisy has become a shadow in Ye Lingwu's heart that cannot be erased.

"Miss, please try this tea. I brought it from Yuzhou specially. There are also a few fish in the kitchen, which were also caught in the stream of Yuzhou. When we eat later, you can also taste that tea. Fresh fish soup is delicious." Liu Yuping smiled.

Ye Lingwu lowered her eyes not to look at the two people above her, and said: "It's not necessary, I have to go back to serve the old lady, so I can't stay for a long time, so if you have something to say, just say it."

When Ye Huaicheng heard the words, he was going to have another fit. Liu Yuping patted his hand lightly without changing her expression, and turned to her face: "Young girl Ling should go back to serve the old lady. After all, you are still raised in Ningbeihou's mansion. By the way." Girl Ling, have you spoken to Lord Shen Xiaohou after you entered the mansion?"

Ye Lingwu frowned, and said, "Miss Liu asked why?"

Liu Yuping smiled dryly and said: "It doesn't mean anything else, it's just... I told you in the letter that my useless brother got into trouble and was detained by Lord Shen Xiaohou and sent to Zhao Prison. I just thought that if you could Talk to Lord Shen Xiaohou, and you can also intercede for my useless brother, let him go."

As she said that, Liu Yuping's worthless tears fell again. She wiped them with a silk handkerchief, and continued: "I have pity on my little brother in my Liu family. If he dies in Zhao Prison, I'm afraid I'll be ashamed to go back." Facing the parents at home."

Ye Lingwu's attitude was blunt, and she replied: "Facing faceless is also a matter of your Liu family. My surname is Ye, not Liu, so I can't take care of so many bad things."

Liu Yuping choked up and said: "Yes, yes, what the eldest girl said is that you shouldn't be involved in this matter, but my ineffective younger brother is doing business under the banner of the lord, and the magistrate of Yuzhou was ordered to temporarily seal up Ye's shop." , Girl Ling also said that your surname is Ye, so you shouldn't just ignore this matter."

"..." Heh, the way he spoke was changing layer by layer.
