Rebirth Of Revengeful Legitimate Daughter - C79
Aunt Huan shook her head. The item was prepared by the old master, so she had never seen it before.
“This thing is called a pocket watch. It was gifted to me by an Oriental merchant. It can calculate time and is very convenient.” Ye Shenghe walked out from his room and explained.
“A pocket watch?” Ye Yuning picked up the disk, and discovered that there was a silver chain on it.
“It’s the same as a copper pot, but much more convenient. Your father will teach you how to see it.” Ye Shenghe took the pocket watch, and pointed at the two needles, one long and one short, as he explained in detail.
Ye Yuning was very smart. She could understand what she meant just by saying it once, so she happily kept the watch in her pocket.
“Daddy has such a great thing, only now did he think of giving it to me.” Ye Yuning pouted and pretended to complain.
How could Ye Shenghe not know that she was acting like a spoiled child? Touching his daughter’s head, Ye Shenghe placed the pocket watch on her chest.
“The quality of this thing is average. I’ve talked to that merchant about it. The next time he comes, I’ll bring a few more beautiful ones for you.”
Ye Yuning nodded excitedly. She did not really care about pearl and jewelry, after all, as the eldest daughter, she had taken a lot of these things since she was young and did not feel anything new about them anymore.
She truly liked this special gift from the bottom of her heart. It was both beautiful and practical, just what she needed.
The Yin Zhou was close to the sea, and many foreigners would often come here to do business. The great pillars could not help but form an ocean. However, the imperial government did not place any importance on them, which made it quite convenient for many folk merchants.
The Ye family had never participated in sea merchants before, so Ye Yuning had never heard of them. She could not help but ask: “Father, now that you are an official, will it not be good for you to continue interacting with them?”
Even though Ye Shenghe was still an official, he was still unable to change his background, and would frequently be ridiculed by his colleagues. Ye Yuning remembered that in her previous life, she was the same way in Duke of Pingjiang’s residence.
Hearing the concern in Ye Yuning’s words, Ye Shenghe was extremely gratified. Regarding her own actions, Ye Shenghe had always followed principles as she explained, “It’s fine, those foreign merchants are your Third Uncle’s friends. I only drank with them once, so I’m not too familiar with them.”
Ye Yuning nodded her head and did not ask anymore, but the questions in her heart did not decrease by one bit.
After bidding farewell to Ye Shenghe, Ye Yuning took Yi Xin back to the small courtyard. As soon as she entered the house, she saw a familiar figure.
“You’re finally back! I thought you forgot about me!” Ji Chenyu complained.
Ye Yuning started sweating, she had indeed forgotten, seeing her good friend’s unhappy face, she immediately apologized. After being coaxed for a long time, Ji Chenyu finally revealed a smile again.
Of course, Ji Chenyu wasn’t really angry, and quickly pulled Ye Yuning and started to chat.
“Just now, I pulled your maidservant and asked her a few questions. I didn’t expect that in just two months, many things would happen in your manor.”
When Li Changle came to Ye’s Mansion to propose marriage, enjoy the flower feast, Ye Yuning fell into the water, all of these things happened while Ji Chenyu was not in Yin Zhou, so she did not know the situation, only until just now did she hear it from Ye Yuning’s servant.
When she first heard it, she didn’t believe it. She knew what kind of personality Ye Yuning had, she seemed to be the most mischievous and willful, but in reality, she was the most soft-hearted.
But from the servant, she realised that Ye Yuning had changed. She had finally learned to fight back against those who had harmed her. In Ji Chenyu’s heart, she couldn’t tell if the change in her close friends were good or bad.
“What happened to your cousin?” Ji Chenyu asked.
Ye Yuning would not hide anything from her, and told her the whole story. After Ji Chenyu heard this, her mouth was wide open in disbelief.
“Is that Concubine Qiao from your second house crazy? To want to discredit you in front of so many people, she did not even think about it. Once your maiden name is sullied, it would not be good for her daughter! ”
Anyone who married to a noble would pay great attention to the lady in the opponent’s family. If Ye Yuning really did something like that, it would be difficult for all the girls in Ye’s Mansion to find a good home.
“Fortunately, something happened to the illegitimate daughter later on.” Ji Chenyu patted her chest and said.
For example, the Qin family did not stop Qin Du’er from interacting with them because of Ye Yujiao. And it was precisely because of this that Linglang Poetry Society would bring Ye Yuchu along, but definitely not Ye Yuying.
In reality, although the first rule of the Ye family stated that there was a difference, the truth was not so.
Other than Ye Yuchu, the old lady loved Ye Yuying the most. As for the big house, the old lady did not like Lady Wen and allowed him to jump up and down. Strictly speaking, the reason why the Ye family had such a situation was because of the madame.
Ye Yuning understood this in her heart, but she was still unable to change the current situation. Unless the Old Master went home. Thinking about that strict grandfather in his memory, Ye Yuning felt a headache.
Why didn’t the elders in the family take it easy?
“I didn’t expect so many things to happen while I was gone.” Ji Chenyu was silent, and for a moment, he did not know what to say to comfort Ye Yuning.
was very strong, stronger than what he could imagine. Suddenly, the girl in his heart that was simply bullied by others had already left, standing in front of him was an elder daughter who had her own independent way of thinking.
Seemingly sensing Ji Chenyu’s peculiar gaze, Ye Yuning did not continue chatting on these topics. Ye Yuning knew about Ji Chenyu’s insight, if by chance she saw any clues, she would not even know how to explain herself to this good friend of her. She could not say that she had already died once?
Ye Yuning shook her head, throwing all these thoughts out of her mind.
“Oh yeah, my dad brought some jewelry back, come and see which one he likes.” Ye Yuning pulled Ji Chenyu into the inner room and opened the marriage box that had been given to him by his aunt.
There were a total of six pairs of jewelry, and there were also six young ladies of Ye’s Mansion. However, Ye Yuning had his pocket watch, and was not interested in jewelry.
Although Ji Chenyu was also extravagant, facing so many novel things, she was still powerless. Even the girls would be attracted by the glittering items, it was just that Ye Yuning, who had lived her entire life, was calmer than the others.
The two girls gathered together to discuss which pair of jewelry was the most beautiful. They spoke softly and the room was filled with laughter.
