Forced to be a concubine, I went to my husband's place to become a wealthy merchant

Chapter 424

Wei Ye asked Ye Xi whether she wanted to stay in the Duke's Mansion or go back to Yuexi Cottage. Ye Xi suddenly saw the light and became a little excited. She chose to go back to Hangzhou City.

Wei Ye was stunned at first, then he cried in front of her.

Although Ye Xi was reluctant, she finally decided to leave. Wei Ye hesitated for a few days and finally agreed.

On the day Ye Xi left, Hong Xiu came to her and said that she wanted to follow her back to Hangzhou City, but Ye Xi smiled and refused.

"I saw you and Mr. Liao having a good chat the other day, and I felt that it would be more appropriate for you to stay in the Duke's Mansion. What do you think?"

Ye Xi was very satisfied when she saw Hong Xiu's surprised expression.

"Madam, you have been very kind to me over the years. It is Hongxiu who has let you down. However, this is my mission and I cannot disobey your orders." Hongxiu lowered her head and did not dare to look at Ye Xi.

"Was it his fault that Pei Zhu's father passed away?"

Hongxiu was silent.

"Was it your doing that Pei Zhu's child was kidnapped?"

"You were the one who disclosed to the adults everything that happened during those years I was in Hangzhou?"

"Everything that happened to me was designed by you?"

"Jin Ling is in the same group with you? I wonder why it is such a coincidence that I get what I want."

A series of questions, met with a series of silences.

Ye Xi guessed everything without Hongxiu's answer. She guessed everything from what she heard about the conversation between Hongxiu and Mr. Liao.

It turns out that she has never been out of Wei Jue's control. What a terrible person.

"Madam, please let Hongxiu stay with you. At least she can protect you." Hongxiu still wanted to persuade.

"No, this lifetime is enough."

It wasn't clearly stated what "enough" meant, but Hongxiu understood.

On the day Ye Xi left, she saw A Shan in the crowd who was seeing her off.

She nodded to Ashan, and Ashan responded to her, and the two reached a tacit understanding that no one else knew about.

Ye Xi just gave A Shan a hint, asking him to release Xia Mu and her two children.

That's right, she lied to Xia Mu, and the letter was meant to trick Xia Mu and the two children out of the house.

She was extremely grateful that her teasing words saved her life.

When she found that Wei Jue always liked to stare at her inexplicably, with a hint of coldness in his eyes, she felt something was wrong.

She didn't want to guess like this, but she had an extremely firm premonition - Wei Jue wanted her to be buried with him!

Ye Xi was frightened by such speculation. At that time, she not only had to deal with Wei Jue, but also had to frantically think of ways to save herself.

She wondered who Wei Jue would instruct to carry out his will, and the most likely person would be Xue Jiu, whom she trusted deeply.

Even if it wasn't Xue Jiu, he would definitely have a way to find out who did it.

So she could only take a gamble and let Ashan arrange for someone to kidnap Xia Mu and Xue Jiu's two children, and then negotiate with Xue Jiu.

When negotiating with Xue Jiu, she went straight to the point: "Xue Jiu, did the master tell you how to deal with me before he passed away?"

Xue Jiu didn't expect Ye Xi to ask this. He hesitated for a while and finally tried to fool her: "The master only told me to take good care of the young master. As for where you are going, the master didn't say."

Ye Xi raised her eyebrows and looked at him pretending: "Did the lord ask you to let me be buried with him after he passed away?"

Xue Jiu froze for a moment and looked around subconsciously.

Seeing this, Ye Xi said, "Don't worry, I have sent everyone away. I will never let anyone else know what I am saying to you."

Xue Jiu didn't know whether he believed it or not. When he turned back, he suddenly became very confident: "Miss, the master didn't tell you where you were going."
