Chapter 414
So, the members of the Huo family hurriedly went to the yamen and informed the county magistrate to close the case.

The county magistrate personally went to the cell, asked the jailer to open the door of the cell, and cupped his hands at Ye Qiongdan with a smile: "Miss Ye is a lucky person, and this time she was killed again. Congratulations."

"It depends on how much the adults have taken care of these two days." Ye Qiongdan returned a gift to him.

"Tonight, let my wife set a table for you, and let's treat it as a cleansing dust for you." The county magistrate suggested.

"I'm really sorry, magistrate, my uncle passed away two days ago, and I have to go back to mourn."

"Okay, then I won't keep you," the county magistrate nodded, "Then I will go to Shanghe Village with you to express our condolences."

"How does this make it?"

"It's okay, you and I are friends who have forgotten the year. Now that an elder in your family has passed away, I will go to express my condolences and send some silk money as a token of my heart." The county magistrate said seriously.

"Then thank you, sir." Ye Qiongdan bowed to him.

"You don't need to be too polite, please." The county magistrate raised his hand.

Ye Qiongdan came out, and the jailer closed the cell door behind him. He was also very happy. He thought to himself, if Miss Ye did good deeds, God would really not ignore her. He had to tell the neighbors and folks the good news quickly, and let them Remove a big stone from your heart.

Ye Qiongdan returned to Shanghe Village together with the magistrate, which naturally caused another commotion.

In the past few days, everyone in Shanghe Village thought that the Ye family was over, and thought that the second household of the Ye family would not have a few days to live.

Unexpectedly, how long has it been?Ye Qiongdan was actually sent back by the county magistrate himself. This can only mean that she is fine, right?
The villagers wanted to ask a question, but due to the majesty of the county magistrate, they could only stand aside, salute the county magistrate, and then watched helplessly as the county magistrate followed Ye Qiongdan to the old house of the Ye family. You Yue'e, who was in charge of the funeral, gave a generous funeral silk money.

You Yue'e opened the box and saw a box of taels of silver. She laughed so hard that she couldn't see her eyes. It was a total of 50 taels of silver. The county magistrate is really generous.

Everyone in Qinghe County knows that the county magistrate is a good official and has never been corrupt. It's just because his wife's family is well-off, and the family's food and clothing are fair.

Although it is a small rich family, it is considered a lot to take out 50 taels of silver in one breath.

When Mr. Ye heard that the county magistrate was coming, he immediately walked away with the help of his cane, came out and bowed to the county magistrate, feeling excited and ashamed.

He was so excited that he was lucky enough to have the county magistrate come to attend the funeral held at home, and he was so ashamed that his eldest son died in such a way, it made him feel ashamed to speak out.

The county magistrate first burned three sticks of incense to Ye Feng, then sat down for a while, and then left.

When the county magistrate left, the Ye family set off firecrackers, and the villagers gathered around the Ye family's mansion to watch the fun, also looking proud.

Then, people poured into Ye's house and came forward to chat with Ye Qiongdan.

"Girl Dan, are you all right? This is really surprising and joyful!"

"I just said that if you survive a catastrophe, you will have a future blessing. You still don't believe me! Do you believe me now? Girl Dan is so blessed, how can she suffer so easily?"

"That's right! Girl Dan, you are really lucky. In the future, you will come to Shanghe Village often, and let us be part of your blessing."

……

Ye Qiongdan chatted with the villagers in an approachable manner, nodding and smiling from time to time.

You Yue'e shrank to the side and counted the silver with great relish. After a while, Mrs. Ye came over, her eyes fixed on the silver: "Hand over all the silver to me!"

"Why hand it over?" You Yue'e was not happy.

"This is the silk money given by the county magistrate. Do you think you should hand it over? The boss has passed away now. The silk money given by the people who came to express condolences is naturally regarded as the money that the boss will honor our two elders in the future?" Mrs. Ye Said confidently.

You Yue'e was almost laughed out of anger.

"I said, mother, how do you have the face to say such a thing? The funeral was organized by our second wife of the Ye family, and the silk money received at the funeral should naturally belong to our second wife. Reason for you! Was the second wife of the Ye family begging to hold this funeral? Isn’t it? You and the old man insisted on forcing the second wife to do it, right? At that time, you were red-eyed. Are there any parents like you? Besides, is the magistrate looking at Ye Fengxian's face? He doesn't even know who Ye Fengxian is, right? Why did the magistrate come to express his condolences? Silk gold? Is it for Ye Qiongdan's face?"

"Will you pay the silk money?" Mrs. Ye was very angry.

"No! No! Just don't pay!" You Yue'e said forcefully, "If you two elders were willing to pay the money back then, you would have the full power to organize Ye Fengxian's funeral. As for today, are you so jealous? You are at the funeral today If you can’t take advantage of it, it’s because you deserve it!”

You Yue'e had a loud voice, and her scolding immediately attracted everyone's attention to Ye Qiongdan.

Old man Ye blushed, wishing he could find a crack in the ground and sneak in.

He took a cold look at Mrs. Ye and You Yue'e, and beat the ground a few times with his cane: "Enough! Don't make any noise! ​​Don't you feel ashamed enough? The boss hasn't sent him up the mountain yet. You guys are arguing endlessly because of the money distribution, isn't this a joke for outsiders to see?"

Among the villagers, many people covered their mouths and started laughing, seeing a joke?There are too many jokes in the Ye family, and this is not the first time they have seen the Ye family's jokes!
"We'll talk about the money distribution later, take care of the guests first!" Mr. Ye said with a straight face.

You Yue'e snorted coldly, rolled her eyes, and entered the room with the money in her pocket.

Ye Qingyu followed Ye Fengxian busily in and out of the Ye family's old house, while the girl from the second room of the Ye family, Xiang girl, was sitting in front of the mourning hall and burning paper.

There were many and complicated things at the funeral, and Ye Qiongxue, who was diligent and shrewd, took You Yue'e's place and was in charge of the purchases inside and outside the place, while Ye Qionghai was in charge of keeping the accounts.

The whole funeral seemed to be in order.

Ye Qiongdan went to Ye Fengxian's house to find paper and a pen to write a letter, then left the old house of Ye's family and came to a secluded place in Shanghe Village, whistled and called a pigeon.

This is the carrier pigeon she communicated with Ye Qinghan. Only she knows how to call the carrier pigeon. Ye Qinghan is still in the Hanshan faction. In order to make things in the world less involved in his family, he always brings a pair of pigeons with him when he is in the Hanshan faction. Zhang Mask, except for Ye Qiongdan, no one in the entire Ye family knew how to contact him who was far away in the rivers and lakes, and no one in the rivers and lakes knew his relationship with the Ye family.

This time Ye Fengxian was soaked in a pig cage, the second elder of the Ye family and the second wife of the Ye family didn't know how to contact Ye Qinghan.

Ye Qiongdan just felt a little strange, logically speaking, as a person in Jianghu, well-informed, Ye Qinghan should have known about her being taken into prison.

With his personality, he would definitely come to Qinghe County day and night, why hasn't she seen him yet?

Did something happen to Ye Qinghan?Ye Qiongdan thought worriedly.

After returning, Ye Qiongdan seemed a little preoccupied.

"What's wrong?" Ye Qingyu asked with concern.

Ye Qiongdan shook his head, and said absent-mindedly: "I was just thinking, why hasn't the eldest brother come back?"

Hearing this, Old Man Ye on the side snorted coldly: "That wild boy, can he have such thoughts? I'm afraid he didn't regard Ye Fengxian as his uncle at all, right? Besides, he is so unfilial. Even if it's been so long, if you don't come back, just treat him as dead outside!"

"Grandpa, it's not convenient for me to tell you some things, but brother is not that kind of person."

Although she also thought that it was too unnecessary for Ye Qinghan to come to Ye Fengxian's funeral. Ye Fengxian was shameless, treacherous and despicable. His death can be regarded as a disaster for the Ye family.

But he should already know that he was caught in prison?

He shouldn't have returned to Qinghe County now!
What happened?

Was he in danger on the way back?
Or she was thinking too much, he was just temporarily stumbling over some things, so he would be late.

Although Ye Qingyu didn't know what his elder brother was doing after he left home, he thought to himself that maybe his elder brother still had some contact with his third sister, and maybe the elder brother they couldn't get in touch with, the third sister could find a way to contact him.

It's just that he hasn't come yet.

"Brother is a very prudent person, don't worry, third sister," Ye Qingyu comforted, "Didn't you always comfort us by saying that if you survive a catastrophe, you will have a future? Immortals, I think you will all have endless blessings."

"You're right." Ye Qiongdan nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.

The eldest brother has the appearance of an emperor, and there is a dragon hovering above his head. Although the dragon is diving in the abyss now, one day he will fly to the nine heavens and watch the world with disdain. My worries are definitely unnecessary.

In the afternoon, Mrs. Xu and many officials and wives from Yiling County came to Shanghe Village, and presented a generous amount of silk money, and burned a stick of incense to Ye Fengxian, and burned some paper money.

Mr. Ye felt honored and ashamed at the same time, after all, Ye Fengxian died so unbearably.

Everyone in Shanghe Village envied Lao Ye's family even more.

There are even some people who are secretly muttering, who said that having a girl is not as good as a boy?You can see that Ye Qiongdan attained the Tao by himself, it is like a dog ascending to heaven.

Of course, some people would inadvertently ask about the cause of Ye Fengxian's death. At this time, Mr. Ye's face would become extremely ugly, and he could only retreat to the side on the grounds that he was not feeling well.

At two o'clock in the morning, the Ye family's old house finally sent away all the guests, leaving only the theater stage singing in front of the house, and there were a few sparse applause from the villagers.

Since they had to keep vigil until early morning, none of the members of the Ye family fell asleep, and quietly gathered around the mourning hall.

"What should we do about the boss's funeral? Please come up with a charter!" Mr. Ye sighed, "I didn't want to make a fuss, after all, it would be too embarrassing to tell the cause of the boss' death, but..."

"But what? He's benefiting our Second Household," You Yue'e said with a sneer, "He took so much advantage from our Second Household during his lifetime, so we're not happy that our Second Household took advantage of him after his death? I said, why should we keep everything simple? Just make a big fuss, hold the funeral for seven full days, and send the coffin up the mountain after seven days."

"Is this appropriate? Isn't this going to make the whole of Guazhou see our old Ye family's joke? At that time, our old Ye's family has a sinner soaked in a pig cage, and everyone in Guazhou will know about it." Is it?" Old Master Ye said sadly.

"So what? Can this reputation be eaten?" You Yue'e rolled her eyes.

"Anyway, I don't agree to do this! You can't just lose face of our old Ye family for a little silk gold!" Mr. Ye said in a deep voice.
