Chapter 156 What Went Wrong?
Master Ye said to Mr. Zhao with a gloomy face, "Give us some space so that I can ask this evil girl of mine what she means."
Zhao Caizhu knew that he was in the wrong, so he could only put on a smile again and said, "This is easy."
Mr. Zhao left the hall to the Ye family and took his men to the back.
County Magistrate Cui also took his men out. It would be better for him not to get involved at a time like this.
After everyone left, Mr. Ye walked up to Ye Xiujun with a gloomy face.
Ye Xiujun called out timidly, "Dad."
Mr. Ye didn't respond. He went up and slapped Ye Xiujun in the face. "You are so shameless! How dare you call me dad?"
Madam Ye exclaimed, "Master, what are you doing? This is not Yun'er's fault."
"It's not her fault, it's my fault. I gave birth to this thing and brought shame to my Ye family."
Ye Jingming couldn't believe that his father not only didn't feel sorry for his sister, but also beat her. "Dad, my sister is the victim."
The saddest person was Ye Xiujun. She covered her face with her hands, full of resentment towards Master Ye. She never thought that her father, who had loved her since childhood, would treat her like this. "Dad, I have embarrassed you. I should not live. Will you be satisfied if I die?"
After saying that, he bumped into the wall again. However, Ye Jingming was closer and hugged Ye Xiujun.
Madam Ye was terrified, "Yun'er, no, don't do this, you still have mother."
What Ye Xiujun thought about most throughout the day and night was that her family would find her quickly so that she would be safe. She didn't expect such a scene.
She struggled in Ye Jingming's arms, "Just let me die, how can I still have the face to live in this world."
Mrs. Ye looked at her daughter, then at her husband, and finally tugged at Mr. Ye's sleeve, "Master, we can discuss this. Are you really going to watch Yun'er die? That's the Yun'er we've loved since childhood."
Mr. Ye seemed moved. He sat down and sighed, "Now that things have come to this, I can only marry Zhao Youcai. Zhao Youcai is a wealthy man after all, so this marriage is not too bad."
When Ye Xiujun heard this, she struggled even harder, "Just let me die."
She thought of Ning Zhengqing, her Ning Lang, who had originally promised to marry her after he graduated from high school.
Ye Jingming hugged his sister tightly to prevent her from hurting herself. He felt bad. He looked down on Zhao Youcai. He didn't have any of Ning Zhengqing's elegance. He was old and fat, and his eyes were blind. Apart from being rich, he had no other advantages.
Master Ye sat motionless in the chair. "Besides Zhao Youcai, there is another way. That is for you to marry and become a nun. It's your choice."
The three of them fell silent. Madam Ye's heart trembled. She didn't want to accept this and shook her head. "There must be a way, there must be a way."
An idea flashed through his mind, and he pinched his handkerchief, "Let's let Yun'er and Zhengqing get married."
Once she said this, it actually became easier. Madam Ye continued, "We had agreed with Zhengqing back then that I would marry Yun'er as soon as he got into high school. Now we're just moving it up. Just pretend what happened today never happened, and don't tell anyone. By then, no one will know, so there's no problem."
Ye Xiujun stopped struggling, her mind went blank, it seemed that this result was the best.
Ye Jingming seemed a little reluctant to see his classmate being deceived, but then he looked at his sister and finally shut up.
Master Ye shook his head. "How can such a thing be concealed from the world? If so, we will become a couple with grievances."
Madam Ye heard that Master Ye seemed to be relenting, so she quickly said, "No, I'll take care of the wedding night. Just make sure what happened today doesn't get out, and Zhengqing will never know about it."
Mr. Ye originally had his eyes on Ning Zhengqing. Ning Zhengqing was the most talented student he had ever taught. He would surely be able to get into high school next year. By then, Mr. Ye could find a way to make some moves and he would surely be able to get a good job.
Another thing is that Ning Zhengqing came from a poor family and could only rely on the Ye family, so he was also the easiest to control.
Master Ye said in a deep voice, "Jingming, take your mother and your sister to the carriage first, and I will take care of the rest."
Mrs. Ye knew that Mr. Ye had agreed, so she quickly pulled Ye Xiujun out the door.
County Magistrate Cui was still waiting outside. When he saw Madam Ye and the others coming out, he was about to go up and say hello when Mr. Ye's voice rang out.
"Your Excellency, County Magistrate, please take a moment to speak."
County Magistrate Cui followed Master Ye and walked to the corner. "Sir, we want to pretend this matter never happened. I need you to do me a favor."
County Magistrate Cui quickly said, "Uncle, why are you so polite to me? There's no need to keep calling me 'County Magistrate'. Just call me by my name."
County Magistrate Cui sometimes always felt that his uncle was too polite. Every time he called him "County Magistrate", he never called him by his name.
Mr. Ye never dared to elevate his status too high. He knew that Cui Mingzhi's position as county magistrate was only temporary and that he would sooner or later be in a high position because he had the support of General Cui.
Mr. Ye repeated the results of the discussion just now.
"I'm sorry to bother you with this matter."
County Magistrate Cui did not expect that the Ye family would make this decision in the end. It was a pity for Ning Zhengqing, but when he thought about it, as long as Ning Zhengqing married Ye Xiuyun, the Ye family would definitely provide more support from then on, so it could not be said to be a bad thing.
"Uncle, just make up your mind. I promise not to leak a single word about what happened today. Yun'er just stayed overnight at a friend's house."
Soon, County Magistrate Cui summoned Mr. Zhao and said, "Let's pretend today's events never happened. As for who you married yesterday, think it over carefully. If I hear anything about Miss Ye outside, don't blame me for being rude."
Mr. Zhao didn't expect this result. He breathed a sigh of relief and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Don't worry, County Magistrate Cui, and Mr. Ye, don't worry. I have never met Miss Ye."
Only after receiving the guarantee did County Magistrate Cui take his men away.
Mr. Zhao wiped the sweat from his forehead and kicked Butler Zhao. "You're more likely to cause trouble than to help. Go get twenty lashes of the board yourself. And think carefully about what went wrong. How did this person change from Jiang Yutong to Miss Ye? If you can't figure it out, you can forget about your position as butler."
Then he quickly ordered the servant, "Hurry and open the warehouse door."
After causing such a big incident, he had to express his gratitude to County Magistrate Cui and the Ye family. He couldn't help but feel a pang of pain in his heart, as the huge sum of money would become someone else's.
What went wrong? How did the bride change from Jiang Yutong to Ye Xiujun? Not only Butler Zhao was wondering about this, but County Magistrate Cui and Master Ye were also wondering about this.
County Magistrate Cui lifted the curtain of his carriage and looked into the distance. He was stunned by the scene before him. "Stop the car."
