Marriage of the Di Daughter Chapter 121 Part 3: Setting Off

Ye Ming Yu remembered what Jiang Li said, and because Jiang Li was going to explain to the Ye family, he did not say anything and just let Ah Shun fetch the person.

Jiang Li immediately got on the carriage and soon arrived at the Ye residence.

Because Xue Huai Yuan and Feng Yu Tang were different from the other people, Jiang Li was afraid there would be accidents and arranged the few people to settle in a courtyard in the Ye residence. She had just arrived at the residence gate when she saw the serious expressions on the servant boy, as if something major had occurred in the Ye family which needed to be dealt with strictly.

Upon seeing Jiang Li and Ah Shun approaching, the gatekeeper at once stuck his head inside and roared, “Miss cousin is back! Miss cousin is back!”

Jiang Li, “…..”

It was as if her return would provide reasonable explanations for things.

Jiang Li entered the Ye residence and into Jin Hua Tang where all members of the Ye family were. Ye Ming Yu was surrounded in the center, his head lowered as if he had done something wrong.

“I’ve told you not to make trouble. Is it good now? You still dislike making less trouble and even dared to tie up an official? What is going on?” Ye Ming Xuan scolded him.

Ye Ming Yu was extremely aggrieved, this time it was truly not his provoking things. Although he did not cause less troubles outside on weekdays, he never participated in this complicated officialdom. Moreover, walking in the rivers and lakes, all would use a nickname, who would use their real names. However, he could not betray his niece, hey, it’s really unlucky!

As he was thinking, Jiang Li came.

Old madam Ye first saw her and called out, “Ah Li!”

Jiang Li walked towards old madam Ye in a few steps.

Old madam Ye seemed to be in better spirits after these few days. She could walk a few steps with the support of the servant girl. She pulled Jiang Li and looked over her carefully before letting out her breath. She said, “I’m relieved seeing that you are well.”

“Grandmother be relieved, I am very well.” Jiang Li smiled and said, “Uncle took care of me all the way.”

“Ah Li,” Guan-shi could not help asking, “What’s actually going on? Those people outside….. How did you get involved with Tongxiang’s county deputy case?”

Jiang Li showed an awkward expression and after a long time she said, “This….. Actually, it’s father’s meaning.”

“Jiang Yuan Bai?” Ye Ming Hui frowned, “Jiang Yuan Bai let you go to Xiangyang for this matter?”

“It can be said so. Because I want to go to Xiangyang to see grandmother, father has other plans, so he let me go to Tongxiang for a trip. In fact, there’s father’s direction for these matters, I was just handling things according to instructions. When we return to Yanjing, these things would be handed over to father to oversee personally.” Jiang Li smiled and said, “It’s me that’s not good, causing worry to grandmother, uncles and aunts.”

She did not hesitate to push these things to Jiang Yuan Bai. The Ye family was not interested in Jiang Yuan Bai and leaving her aside, the Ye family would not be too worried.

Sure enough, with this explanation, the Ye family members looked at each other. Although there’s still surprise on their faces, it wasn’t the same as the initial impatience.

Jiang Yuan Bai was an old fox, and the Ye family did not understand matters in the officialdom. Therefore it was not good for them to ask why this had to be done like this.

Ye Ming Yu saw the situation and secretly raised a thumbs-up to Jiang Li. It’s a good thing to study well, the family members could be persuaded in just a few words. If he had Jiang Li’s eloquence, from early on, he would not have to be urged to marry by his mother, brothers and sisters-in-law every year.

It seems that people truly have to study more. Ye Ming Yu made a firm resolution to invite a teacher another day to teach him on how to talk skillfully

Although the matters were pushed onto Jiang Yuan Bai’s head, Jiang Li still gave the members of the Ye family a once through explanation of Xue Huai Yuan’s case. However, she did not mention that there’s still someone behind Feng Yu Tang, therefore, in the Ye family member’s ears, Feng Yu Tang was the one framing Xue Huai Yuan to make him become the county deputy and committed many imaginable misdeeds.

Ye Rufeng said, “Feng Yu Tang is too muddle-headed! Pity County Deputy Xue!”

“Unexpectedly, there are such evil people in the world.” Ye Jia Er was emotional. “The most awful thing is that this kind of evil person can still become an official.”

Ye Ming Xuan muttered to himself for a while before saying, “So to say, this time, Jiang Yuan Bai has done a good thing.” He glanced at Jiang Li.

Ye Ming Xuan was a smart person. Although Jiang Li pushed everything on Jiang Yuan Bai’s head, Ye Ming Xuan still sensed that something was amiss. What good could Jiang Yuan Bai obtain by handling the Xue family’s case? Jiang Yuan Bai was not a Great Qing official who was dedicated to the country and the people. More importantly, Jiang Yuan Bai had no relationship with the Xue family, so why did he specially ask Jiang Li to make a trip to Tongxiang just to rehabilitate the Xue family?

Despite his doubt, Ye Ming Xuan had no other evidence, so he could only drop the topic.

“This was a good deed, and Master Xue is also a pitiful person.” Old madam Ye said, “Ah Li, go back to Yanjing a bit earlier, an official order has a time restriction, there are many days to travel from Xiangyang to Yanjing. Set off earlier so you can arrive in Yanjing earlier.” Old madam Ye had a clear temper and advised Jiang Li after listening to the whole story.

“I also thought the same.” Jiang Li smiled and said, “We are stopping over in Xiangyang for one day and will set off tomorrow.”

“Tomorrow?” Zhuo-shi was surprised, “so urgent?”

“Eldest sister-in-law, we are handling proper matters, naturally cannot be delayed.” Ye Ming Yu said.

“What, you are going too?” Ye Ming Xuan asked Ye Ming Yu.

“Of course! Ah Li has also said it, with me around, Ah Li can be taken care of properly. There are so many people, don’t tell me that you want Ah Li to bring so many Tongxiang residents to enter the capital by herself? You want to tire Ah Li to death? I’m not the same, at that time, how many brothers did I bring when I charged into the rivers and lakes? I am the most suitable person to be in the position to boss people around, guaranteed to keep Ah Li comfortable. Whatever mountain thieves, bandits, robbers, no one would dare to come forward. Come one, kill one, kill two with a stroke!” He fiercely gestured twice.

“That’s enough, I see you’ll just add to the chaos if you go.” Ye Ming Xuan said unhappily.
