Chapter 289 Grandma, Stop Acting

Without any magic, Zhuier's just one sentence made Ye Wenyan completely sober up.

Something happened to Princess Guiyue? Wasn't Feng Zhaolian about to leave? Why did she have to do this before she left?

She quickly got up to clean up, and at the same time asked Zhuier: "What happened? Who reported the news?"

Zhuier said, "It was Xiaoyu, the maid of the Jiang family, who reported the news. She said that Princess Guiyue was having dinner in the restaurant, but she got into a fight with someone. She threatened to tear down the restaurant."

Ye Wenyan was confused after hearing this. "What happened to her in the restaurant? Why did she get so angry? Is Wanting here too?"

Zhuier said with a bitter face, "Xiaoyu said that Miss Jiang and Miss Chi accompanied them to the restaurant. When they went there, the restaurant had just opened. They ordered a large table of dishes and a lot of wine. After a few bites, Princess Guiyue said that the food and wine were not right. She slammed the table and started a quarrel with the restaurant staff. But these are not the most important things. The most important thing is that the restaurant is our family's business. It was always run by the eldest lady, but later it was taken away by the old lady when we moved the courtyard."

Ye Wenyan remembered that when the first and second wives moved to a new place, many of their things were taken away. Although they were returned later, one shop was missing.

"It is said that the shop was taken away by the old lady. Is that true?" she asked Zhuier.

The little girl remembered these things very clearly, and immediately said, "Yes, it was taken by the old lady. At that time, our place was in a mess, and the young lady didn't have time to ask for it back. But you always said that the shop couldn't be given to the old lady for nothing, and that it had to be taken back sooner or later."

Ye Wenyan nodded, "Yes, we have to get it back sooner or later, but something went wrong before we could get it back. We can't just take on all the responsibility. Whoever owns the shop has to be responsible. Our old lady can't just rush in to get the money and then shrink back when something goes wrong." She told Zhuier, "Find a smart maid to tell the old lady and ask her to get ready and go to the restaurant as soon as possible to deal with the dispute in person. The other party is the princess of Guiyue, and the owner must come forward. If this matter is not dealt with quickly, it may end up in front of the emperor."

Zhuier immediately carried out the order and quickly handed the task to the maid named Ali, then went back to the room and asked Ye Wenyan: "Since the old lady is going to handle it, do we not have to go?"

Ye Wen shook his head, "We have to go. Besides, don't you want to see the scene?"

Zhuier immediately thought of the palace banquet on New Year's Eve and the strange princess in a red gauze dress. She couldn't help but get excited. "I want to see it. I really want to see it! Princess Guiyue will definitely not show mercy, right?"

Ye Wenyan just smiled and didn't say much. After getting dressed, he took Zhuier out, but left Madam Ji behind.

Nothing would happen to her when she was away from home, but she was always worried about her family. Shi Liyuan sent Nanny Ji to live with her, but in fact, Nanny Ji took care of Mu and Ye Qingmei the most.

The master and servant met the old lady at the gate of the mansion. Compared with Ye Wenyan's leisurely pace, the old lady seemed a little anxious and flustered. Although she knew the news later than Ye Wenyan, she was already ahead of her. When Ye Wenyan saw her, she was already preparing to get on the carriage with Jun Tao's support.

But just before she was about to go up, Jun Tao turned around and saw Ye Wenyan walking towards her.

Seeing Jun Tao's slow movements, the old lady said unhappily, "Hurry up, what are you doing standing there like an idiot?"

Jun Tao whispered something to her, and the old lady turned around and saw Ye Wenyan smiling at her!

She hated her fourth granddaughter's laughter the most, because her laughter used to please the old general, but now it looked less and less funny, and the more she laughed, the more uneasy she felt.

But Ye Wenyan didn't care whether she leaked or not. Not only did he smile, he also quickened his pace and walked up to her, pushed Jun Tao away, personally helped the old lady get on the carriage, and then sat in the carriage himself.

When Zhuier saw his master got on the carriage, he hurried to follow without saying a word, and Juntao fell to the end, but fortunately he also squeezed in. The driver was not very happy. If he had known that there were so many people, he would have used a bigger carriage, so that the masters would not feel too crowded.

The carriage was indeed very crowded, barely enough for four people, and they were not allowed to move too much.

The old lady didn't understand what she meant, and frowned and asked, "What are you doing? I'm going out, and I didn't invite you. Why did you just squeeze into my carriage? Do you still think you're a child? If a girl doesn't have this kind of manners when she grows up, it will be a disgrace to our Ye family if she goes out."

Ye Wenyan smiled, "Grandma, don't worry. I won't be the one to bring shame to the Ye family. Besides, I am the legitimate granddaughter. If I am willing to ride in the same carriage with my grandma, others will only say that we have a deep affection for each other, and will never talk about our upbringing. As for what I want to do, do you even need to ask? Of course, I will go to Shuntian Street with my grandma to see what the restaurant that grandma has worked so hard to run has done to cause Princess Guiyue to get angry on the spot."

The old lady actually wanted to ask if you two had conspired together to do this. After all, everyone knew about the relationship between Princess Guiyue and Ye Wenyan. The two of them became very familiar with each other at the palace banquet on New Year's Eve. What happened today, she really couldn't tell whether it was an accident or a conspiracy.

But she didn't dare to ask this because she was unsure. She knew what was going on in the restaurant, and if Princess Guiyue had evidence against her, she would have to take the blame even if it was a conspiracy.

Ye Wenyan was still talking with a smile: "Speaking of which, grandma, you are the old lady of the first-rank general's mansion. You don't have to personally show up for things outside, even if the sky falls. But today's fact is really unavoidable. She is Princess Guiyue, and she was bullied by businessmen in our Beiqi territory. If things go wrong, it will provoke diplomatic incidents between the two countries. When Beiqi and Guiyue fight again, grandma, do you think you will still live? In the past, when my grandfather and my father were alive, they were the ones who fought in the war. Now that they are gone, not only do you not know how to restrain yourself, but you also bring disaster to Beiqi. This awareness is too low."

The old lady's face was not looking good, but she was still unwilling to be scolded like this. She snorted coldly and said, "Don't exaggerate. The Guiyue people angered the emperor at the palace banquet, and the envoys were beaten to death. How much face do they still have in Northern Qi?"

"The envoy is an envoy, and the princess is a princess. Can the ministers be treated the same as the master?" She told the old lady, "The emperor has always taken good care of the princess. The princess has been staying at the Prince Chen's mansion these days. In order to make her live comfortably, the palace has also given her many good things. It can be seen that the court has no intention of turning against Gui Yue immediately, and is also trying its best to appease the princess. But I didn't expect that the court was busy appeasing, and you were busy offending. Tell me what you are doing! Isn't this causing trouble for the court! Grandmother, do you look down on the new emperor? Do you do it on purpose?"

"Shut up!" The old lady was furious, "Stop talking nonsense, you are also a child of the Ye family, if this word gets out it will be a disaster, what good will it do you?" The old lady had a lot of lessons to teach Ye Wenyan, and seeing that she was about to start talking, Jun Tao hurriedly pulled her aside. The old lady took a deep breath, tried to suppress her anger, and her tone became much gentler.

"Wen Yan! We are all family. No matter how we quarrel at home, we have to stick together once we are outside, otherwise we will be laughed at. Grandmother doesn't mean to blame you. She just hopes that our family can live in harmony like before, so that people outside can still be as respectful as before when they mention the First-Rank General's Mansion."

Ye Wenyan laughed when she heard this. "Grandma, you have such a good idea. You spared no effort to suppress our eldest branch at home, and now you want us to cooperate with you to put on a show of family harmony and prosperity. How can such a good thing happen in the world? In the past, people were in awe of the achievements of my grandfather and my father. If you still want people to continue to be in awe of you in the future, then you, the old lady, must set an example. At least, whether at home or outside, you must treat your descendants in the same manner. But grandma, can you do it?"

The old lady didn't say anything, and she heard Ye Wenyan say again: "I know that every time you see me, you have a lot to say, and none of them are nice. Similarly, when I see you, I also have a lot to say, and none of them are nice. So let's stop pretending, it's so tiring. The face has been torn a long time ago, and what's the point of talking about a harmonious family. Take the restaurant we are going to now, if I remember correctly, it should have been the property under my mother's name, how did it end up in the hands of the old lady? You robbed so many things from us at the beginning, and I asked you to return them with a list, but only this deed is missing, how do you explain it?"

The old lady's expression changed constantly, but she couldn't utter a word.

"Since you don't want to explain, then don't explain! Now that something has happened at the restaurant, I just hope that as the owner, grandma can take full responsibility, and not push the responsibility onto us when you find that the problem cannot be solved there. Let me remind grandma again that the Guiyue envoy is different from the princess. They will not come to Beiqi to ask for an explanation for an envoy, but they may turn against each other for the princess at any time. After all, Princess Zhaolian's father is also a man who is good at fighting. If you bully their daughter, they will come to you to settle the score even if there are thousands of mountains and rivers between them!"

At this point, the carriage stopped and the driver said through the curtain: "Madam, Fourth Miss, we have arrived at the restaurant."

Ye Wenyan was the first to come down. As soon as he landed on the ground, he heard Feng Zhaolian's voice coming from the restaurant - "You Beiqi people are too arrogant. Not only do you pass off inferior goods as good ones, but you even dare to poison this princess?"

The old lady also heard this. She was getting off the car, but her feet went numb when she heard this, and she slipped off the car...
