Ye Jiu was afraid that continuing the conversation might give things away, so he quickly changed the subject, "How are things going in the capital city?"
Ye Wenzheng imdiately had no ti to ask about Ye Bai and Ye Hei, replying, "Developnt there is going very well, they’ve even made facial cleanser, and according to my younger aunt’s letter, I’ve set up a workshop outside the city. Now we mainly supply goods to other shops. With Prince Jing’s protection, no one dares to cause trouble, it’s just... it’s such a pity about the ice shop closing."
Ye Wenzheng looked pained when he ntioned this.
With so many people using ice in the sumr, the money ca in exceptionally fast. Even though the sales from Beauty Pavilion were good, they still made much less than from selling ice.
That’s why Ye Wenzheng couldn’t help but feel the pinch every ti he thought about it, wishing it could be sumr all year round so the ice shop could stay open continuously.
Ye Jiu, on the other hand, wasn’t so disappointed. The ice shop closing was sothing she had expected, and besides, she could now say without exaggeration, the thing she lacked the least was money.
Money, one can’t live without it, but once you really have a lot, it becos just a stack of numbers. What was different in her case was that so of it was paper, so was gold and silver, and even more was in goods.
Ye Wenzheng opened the box on his desk and said, "According to my younger aunt’s letter, I’ve buried the actual silver underground, and it won’t be discovered by anyone. These are all silver notes; I brought them back with ."
Ye Jiu took a look, there was a total of several hundred thousand taels of silver, and that didn’t even include the silver she had Ye Wenzheng bury.
"This is your reward for the past six months." Ye Jiu pulled out two one-thousand-tael silver notes and handed them to Ye Wenzheng, "Your mother and sister are still living on the estate; they’ve been quite worried about you all this ti. You should go see them soon."
"Alright," Ye Wenzheng knew Ye Jiu’s personality and didn’t stand on ceremony, taking his reward right away, "Then I thank my younger aunt. I’ll go see my mother now."
After Ye Wenyu left, Ye Jiu, as usual, stored the silver notes in her space. Then she called Ye Bai in and gave him a stern lecture.
This guy was just too imprudent. If he could talk nonsense in front of others this ti, what if he transford in front of others next ti?
A good teaching was essential; otherwise, he wouldn’t learn. Consequently, Ye Bai was punished by Ye Jiu: he could not transform into a human for an entire month, or else he would be sent back to the Ancient Plane.
As for the matter of the third grandmother starting trouble and getting into a fight with the He family, nobody expected there to be a hidden hand behind the incident.
The third grandmother was instigated by soone else to start trouble.
And it was the sa person who, on the day of Ye Gaosheng’s marriage, tried to take advantage of Qingyue but was taught a lesson by her.
After the Clan Leader made the situation clear, the third grandmother’s family and that person ca to apologize, one after another.
But this ti, Ye Jiu had no intention of showing rcy.
People who dared to co to her house and stir up trouble needed to be taught a lesson once and for all, so that they would know the might of her family.
Otherwise, constant forbearance would only lead them to think she was easy to bully, which would make things worse and more troubleso.
During the New Year, both the third grandmother and the instigator spent their ti in jail.
Ye Jiu had Ada use the token given by Prince Jing to visit the County Office, and plainly stated that since the third grandmother was old, it wouldn’t be appropriate to beat her. Just let her stay in jail for a few days to clear her mind, lest she always be so delusional.
