"Little Qing, you said that you arrived late due to something along the way. Just what happened?" Aunt Ye, who was bringing Ye Qing to the second floor of the restaurant, saw the slightly dirty appearance of Ye Qing's clothes and asked smoothly.

Did you finally ask?

Ye Qing, who had already expected this in his heart, calmly said, "Aunt Ye, I originally came here by my family's carriage, but just as I was about to arrive in An Fu Town, I suddenly encountered a bandit …"

And the moment Ye Qing said the word bandit, Aunt Ye, who had originally thought that nothing major would happen, instantly became nervous before she even had a chance to continue speaking.

"Bandits?!" Little Qing, you're not hurt anywhere right? " Aunt Ye held Ye Qing's hand nervously.

She was afraid that if Ye Qing met with an accident while he was on the way here, if he injured his legs, tendons, and bones, it would affect next year's martial arts competition, or if his injured right hand made it difficult to hold the brush, resulting in him failing to pass the examinations, then regardless of whether it was Ye Qing's mother or her own heart, she would feel absolutely sorry for him.

"Aunt Ye, I'm fine." Ye Qing shook his head, "Although something unexpected happened, those thieves were no match for my sword. With just a few strikes, I beheaded three of them, causing the remaining thieves to run away in fear."

"However, it's a pity for my two followers. Something happened too suddenly, and I didn't have time to guard against causing their deaths in the wilderness. "Although your nephew has killed many bandits, the carriage that you saw along the way was also damaged, causing your nephew to have no choice but to ride alone. I beg your forgiveness for coming to see you like this, Aunt Ye." Ye Qing slightly bowed and said with a sincere cupped fist.

"Killed and repelled the thieves? "It's good that you retreated, it's good that you retreated …" Aunt Ye heaved a sigh of relief and quickly helped Ye Qing up: "Xiao Qing, as long as you're fine, it's fine. Don't think too much about other things, Aunt Ye won't blame you. As for the new servants, when you arrive at Aunt Ye's residence, they will send someone to arrange for you … "Then your residence …"

"Thank you, Aunt Ye, for the trouble." Ye Qing looked at Aunt Ye, who was always thinking of him, and nodded in thanks.

In Ye Qing's previous life, Aunt Ye was one of the few people who truly treated him well.

She was the sister of Ye Qing's mother, Huang Wen, as well as a partner in mining in the Prefecture Country. Both of them ran a mining company with assets worth millions of silver taels.

In his previous life, when Ye Qing was entrusted to Aunt Ye by his mother, Aunt Ye had always taken care of him. No matter if it was food, clothing, cultivation, or any other aspects, she had always taken care of him.

Even after Ye Qing's mother, Huang Wen, made the Chamber of Commerce into several prefectures and was assassinated by her opponent, her father was framed and imprisoned in the government, causing Ye Qing to eventually fall into poverty and despair. Aunt Ye still treated him the same way she always had, never changing.

As for Aunt Ye's real name, it was not Ye. It was because she was the official wife of Ye Yanran's father, Ye Zhangqing, and her husband's surname, people called her Madam Ye and Aunt Ye to show their respect.

"Look at you, child. Why are you being so courteous?" "There's no need to be polite with your Aunt Ye." Aunt Ye said gently, "Your mother entrusted you to me, letting you come to the county city alone. Aunt Ye only has one daughter, Yanran, and she has always wanted to have a son, so Xiaoqing, you can just treat Aunt Ye's family as your own."

"Yes." Ye Qing nodded. He cupped his fist and bowed to express his gratitude.
