Zhong Xingwang nodded and said, "Tomorrow my elder sister will co to your place for the marriage proposal, and I will take you to see the estate to buy so that when your family cos to the Capital City, you’ll have a house."
Ye Shiqi said, "This is a great idea. Now that we have money to buy a house in the Capital City, owning a ho makes other ventures possible."
Ye Fengqi ???
Once Ye Shiqi and her elder sister heard the news, they didn’t stay long at the estate and decided to head ho early.
Normally, the coachman wouldn’t wait here, arriving only in the evening to pick up the sisters, but due to recent events at ho needing instant attention, the coachman and two bodyguards accompanied the sisters to the estate.
They would also help out on the estate, effectively becoming the sisters’ private coach.
Recently, with Aunt Lai encountering issues and not requiring the carriages, Hongji’s father stayed at ho as a drunkard.
Hongji watched the nearby factory only a short walk away and, for his daughter’s safety, he would not let his daughter vie for transport. He preferred riding Iron Bull, the "iron bicycle."
Tang Shunyan... was just about to engage in conversation when the young ladies had to leave?
Sima Roui... "You’re leaving so early, who will I play with?"
As the sisters’ coach was entering the village, it was blocked again, not by people but by several stones placed there—if they weren’t afraid of the coach overturning, they could pass.
How could the coachman take such a risk? Moreover, the two bodyguards riding Iron Bulls had already stopped, and after stopping the coach, they, together with the driver, faced the people blocking the road, knives in hand.
Placing stones on the road was actually sothing they had just done upon seeing the sisters’ coach approaching the village entrance.
To achieve their goal, the Lady made them do it. Now monitored by the two bodyguards and the coachman, these lackeys cringed.
"What now? Looking for a fight, are you? I think last ti wasn’t harsh enough for you; move the stones if you know what’s good for you,"
The coachman’s words left the opponents speechless, gaping and pointing behind him.
"Siya, Wuya, co out." The command from Big Pancake Face No.1 sounded irritating.
Ye Fengqi lifted the coach’s canvas curtain to see, apart from Big Pancake Face Nos. 1 and 2, several other family girls outside.
"Ugly girls always stirring up trouble, eh? Out barking again, have we?"
Ye Fengqi’s soft-spoken comnt was heard by all present, her biting sarcasm causing the n to nearly burst out laughing.
The followers struggled to hold back their laughter; they were pushed aside by the girls.
Ye Jinxiang barged past two followers while Ye Lanzi also shoved another follower aside.
Their strength was so fierce, it nearly made a few followers tumble. Having held back their laughter before, they couldn’t help but not laugh when being pushed.
The atmosphere was so charged; it felt like a prelude to a brawl!
Ye Fengqi?? Fight?
Ye Shiqi... "Speaking of which, I’ve been learning martial arts for so long yet I’ve never fought anyone. Should I try it out? With my basic skills, I may not win against martial arts masters, but I should be able to handle these scoundrels, right?"
The tension at the scene seed about to erupt. An incident here had already drawn curious children, and now a crowd of elders and kids gathered, as the able-bodied and wonfolk were off working at this ti.
The children were noisy, disrespectfully comnting, "These people are causing trouble again, aren’t they bored?"
"Why are these people so idle? And these won, they’re so ugly they shouldn’t be out in the sun."
The followers scolded the children: "Keep it up, and we’ll kill you, yeah?"
"Yeah right, you’re just bluffing. Do you dare kill so many of us?"
"Blowing it sky-high!"
The children jeered, laughing and scampering just when the followers seed ready to hit them.
But these followers were only there to create an impression along with the lady, so they just made a show of chasing the kids away.
In this tense atmosphere, Big Pancake Face approached the place where stones blocked the path to the coach, they stood there, an angry expression instantly turning into a smile.
Although this smile looked worse than their angry faces, they suddenly changed their usual manners.
Ye Shiqi... "What’s this? Why do I sll a plot brewing?"
Ye Fengqi... "This seems like the weasel paying respects at a chicken’s New Year, ill-intentioned. What are these ugly won up to?"
"Siya, Wuya, we actually ca to make peace with you sisters, not to fight or argue. It was just hard to find you girls and too embarrassing to visit your ho, so we had to stop you on the road."
