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

Chapter 335

After all, Ye Xi still stayed with that master as a mistress. It would not sound good if it were made public. Even if she was a concubine, she still had a status.

Ling couldn't understand her sister-in-law's thoughts, and was afraid that she would put on a show of disrespect in front of that adult, so she simply kept silent.

The faces of several people in the Ye family were not very happy about this, but they could not change anything.

After Ye Xin returned to his room, he told Ling that the matter must not be spread outside and that his sister and the adult should remain as they were in Hangzhou City.

He said that his sister would probably have to follow him to the capital in the future, and at that time he would only be able to announce to the public that his sister had gone to the capital to do business.

This kind of explanation always sounds better than being someone's mistress.

Ling naturally nodded in agreement. After all, she didn't want her children to be criticized in the future for having an aunt who was a concubine.

In the following days, Wei Jue asked Xue Jiu to come and take the person to the office whenever he got the chance, and Ye Xi could not refuse.

The only thing that comforted her was that she could often see Wei Ye in the office.

Wei Ye had actually been staying in Hangzhou City with Wei Jue, and he had already become enlightened.

My mentor was once a famous Hanlin. After retiring, he was invited by Wei Jue to follow them to Hangzhou City.

Wei Ye had a heavy academic workload. Every time Ye Xi saw him, he was either rushing to class or reciting a book. He rarely had time to play.

Ye Xi felt very distressed that such a tiny child had to suffer so much, and occasionally complained to Wei Jue that the child was suffering too much.

It is better for children of this age to play more. Unexpectedly, Wei Jue directly rejected it, saying that Wei Ye was the only child of the Wei family, and if he did not study hard, how could he be worthy of the Duke's Mansion in the future.

Ye Xi shut up and could only silently make some food for the child and send it over.

She was not good at needlework and could not make clothes for him, so she could only practice her cooking skills and make soups and dishes.

Wei Ye didn't seem to have much memory of her and thought she was just a roommate of his father.

He did this to please him, and he had little interest in the food she sent him.

Although he was very respectful to her, his attitude was still cold, which made Ye Xi feel uncomfortable.

Later, she came to terms with it and realized that it was inevitable that the child would become unfamiliar with her since she was not around, so she let it go and stopped sending food to her frequently.

Occasionally, when I make something delicious for Siyu, I will also send a portion to Wei Ye, and he can eat it or not.

Ye Xi poured all her love for her children into Siyu, and her career ambition, which had been extinguished because she was preparing to marry Pei Zhu, was rekindled.

She felt that her ambition seemed to be determined by Pei Zhu or Wei Jue, and she despised herself a little, but on second thought she felt that she was not wrong.

If she could be with her beloved, Pei Zhu's cloth shop would prosper and her business would be good.

The accumulated wealth is enough for the next two generations to live comfortably. There is really no need to work so hard. She doesn't want to build a business empire or anything like that. She just wants to have enough food and clothing.

Now that her relationship with Wei Jue has returned to what it was before, she suddenly feels a sense of crisis and thinks she still has to fight for her career. If there really is a natural disaster or man-made disaster, it will be necessary to buy her life with money.

So she began to walk around the store frequently, started checking the accounts, and asked Qin Song to inspect cities where there were no branches, preparing to expand the Xinweiguan stores.

The ten-year agreement between Zhiweiguan and the Hu people will expire in two years.

Nowadays, there are various kinds of tea drinks on the market, and the Hu people may not renew their contract with her. She can only try her best to hold on to the current market.
