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

Chapter 420

"Why are you outside instead of serving inside? What nonsense!" Wei Yuan asked inexplicably when he saw her outside the house.

"…My Lord won't allow it."

Wei Yuan was choked by her. He always knew that the woman in front of him was restless, but he didn't expect that she would dare to slap him in the face in front of others.

He snorted, flicked his sleeves and walked into the house. Wei Ye and Yao Yushu followed him in without saying a word, but they looked at her differently.

Ye Xi lowered her head, her mind was in a mess. She was wondering if Wei Jue really did... what should she do.

As a result, I heard footsteps and looked up, and saw Yao Yushu coming out with a bad look on his face.

Ye Xi understood and thought that he was probably driven out as well. She just glanced at him and didn’t look at him again.

Yao Yushu was unhappy, knowing that Ye Xi must be laughing at her in her heart, but she didn't dare to say anything, lest Wei Jue heard it and she would be in trouble again.

She didn't want to see Ye Xi, but she couldn't leave, so she could only find a place to stay outside.

The two men were like door gods, guarding outside, one on the left and one on the right.

This time the conversation lasted a long time and their legs were numb from standing.

Originally, Ye Xi wanted to sit down cross-legged, but when she thought that the person inside was still sick, she felt it was inappropriate, so she gave up.

After waiting for a long time, she finally heard some movement. Ye Xi watched the doctor come out first, shaking his head and sighing. She felt inexplicably cold in her heart.

The doctor was followed by Xue Jiu. She glanced at Yao Yushu, but the other person didn't show any expression.

Wei Yuan and Wei Ye came out long after the doctor left.

Wei Yuan left without even looking at Ye Xi because he had just been rude to her. Wei Ye saw Wei Yuan off first and then turned around to greet them one by one.

This day was very stressful for everyone.

After that day, Wei Jue's condition obviously worsened. He vomited blood more often and began to deteriorate.

Although Wei Jue didn't say it, Ye Xi knew that he would not live long.

Wei Jue looked at her for a longer time, with a look of reluctance and guilt. She didn't know why he felt guilty, but she always felt uneasy.

"Xi Niang, the doctor said that Grandpa won't last much longer." Wei Jue hugged Ye Xi, resting his head on her shoulder and said sullenly.

He is very thin now, not as strong as he used to be, and she can't feel much weight when he presses on her shoulders.

"I can't bear to part with you. I haven't had enough of you yet."

She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that there was a tone of crying in his voice.

"Let me make a promise with you for the next life, okay? In the next life, I will meet you first and marry you home."

Ye Xi knew that she should agree to his words at this moment, but she was stuck.

She really couldn't like what Wei Jue had done in the past, so she raised her hand and stroked Wei Jue's back as a response.

"You definitely don't want to, I know that, but I don't regret it, I just want to have you.

Xi Niang, you can't blame me. No one who holds power can easily give up something they love."

Wei Jue seemed to be talking to himself.

Ye Xi was silent.

As time went by, Ye Xi clearly felt some changes in the mansion, and the power in the mansion began to be transferred.

Wei Ye was about to become the next head of the family. She was a little dazed when she saw the young-looking Wei Ye seriously ordering the servants and low-level officials in the mansion.

She heard that Yao Yushu's brother had his "wrongs" rehabilitated and his original position reinstated, and that his father had been promoted.

The Yao family was filled with joy, but due to Wei Jue's circumstances, they did not celebrate on a grand scale.
