Chapter 417
Chapter 417
Ye Xi heard a "bang" and didn't know what the sound was. Then she heard Yao Yushu's crying voice.
"Sir, please, for the sake of my years of taking care of Ye'er, please save my brother.
He was confused about this matter, but he is Ye Er's uncle after all, you can't just stand by and watch him die!"
Then there were a few more "dong dong" sounds, and Ye Xi realized that this must be Yao Yushu kowtowing to Wei Jue.
It was quiet inside for a while, so quiet that Ye Xi thought she had been discovered and someone was about to catch her on the spot.
She didn't dare to move or even breathe. Her whole body was like frozen, and she wished she would disappear right there.
After a while, a sound was finally heard from inside again.
"Yushu, Ye'er was not caused by you. Do your father and brother know about this?"
Although Wei Ye has been raising Yao Yushu, he has placed his own people by her side to watch over her over the years, worried that Yao Yushu might go crazy and hurt the child one day.
“They don’t know, but you do know, sir. Although I am the legitimate daughter of the family, my father and brothers are very dissatisfied with the fact that I have been married into the Wei family for many years and have not gained any benefits for the family.
Ye Er is gone and I can’t have another child. If they knew about this, they would definitely not support me anymore.”
Then her situation in the Wei family would definitely be even worse.
Yao Yushu did not lie. When she found out that her child was gone, the first thing she wanted to do was to tell her parents about her experience.
She wanted to get comfort from her mother's family, but her loving mother had already passed away.
Her father and brother originally had average feelings towards her, but they became much nicer to her after she married into the Wei family.
But before she had the chance to complain, she was struck by the bolt from the blue when she learned that she could no longer have children.
She no longer dared to tell her father and brother what she wanted to say. She knew very well that her father and brother had still taken good care of her during all these years of house arrest, all because of Ye'er.
After all, they all thought that Ye'er was the blood of the Yao family, and with Ye'er in the Yao family, they would benefit sooner or later.
"Very good, as long as they acknowledge Ye'er as their grandson and nephew, I will protect your brother, and you will be released from house arrest starting today.
But you'd better think it over and don't do anything to hurt Xi Niang again, otherwise don't blame me for being heartless."
Wei Jue's voice was cold, and his words were full of threats.
But to Yao Yushu it sounded like heavenly music. God knows what kind of life she had been leading in the past two years.
As long as she can live a decent life as the wife of the prince of the Duke's Mansion, everything else is fine.
All the sons of noble families are surrounded by beautiful concubines. She should not have been blinded by jealousy and did something disobedient to Wei Jue, which brought trouble to herself.
"I will never dare to do it again. Thank you for your forgiveness, sir." Yao Yushu's voice was filled with excitement.
Ye Xi knew that their conversation had come to an end, so she quickly stepped back and went outside the yard.
There was no one outside the yard at this time. She guessed that Wei Jue had sent everyone away in order to talk to Yao Yushu, but he didn't even ask anyone to guard the yard. This was not Wei Jue's style.
Only when she met the people who came hurriedly did she realize that it was not that Wei Jue did not want anyone to guard the place, but that he had left because of something.
If Wei Jue discovered this mistake, he would definitely be punished according to the family rules. That person did not expect Ye Xi to appear.
Without thinking deeply about whether Ye Xi came out from inside or just arrived, he quickly explained that it was not convenient for the adults to see guests now.
After the other party finished speaking, he looked at her with a pleading look in his eyes. Ye Xi understood what he meant and spoke to comfort him.
"Don't worry, just pretend that I haven't come back yet. There's no need to mention it to the adults. I'll go for a walk first and come back later."
"Yes, girl."
