Heshoutang was burned into an ugly charred fire, but unexpectedly burned a wonderful clue for Ye Kui.

At noon, Ye Kui led Qin Sang to Ye Mingwan's yard. It was strange. With just a glance, she recognized the maid named Bi Tao. She had never seen her before, but just glanced at her and Ye Kui was sure that the man was Bi Tao who was working in Heshou Hall.

However, the twelve or thirteen-year-old girl, wearing a neat bun and a clean blue cloth shirt, stood there respectfully and didn't even dare to raise her head.

She was scared.

Ye Kui originally thought she was afraid of herself, but later she found that she was not afraid of herself, but was just simply afraid. With every move, people could easily see her fear. Ye Kui was talking to Ye Mingwan quietly, but on the other side, she had already winked at Qin Sang and asked her to check what happened at Bitao's house. It seemed that she could not adapt to her current choreography. If she really knew something, how could she come back home before she was ready?

If the matter is leaked by accident, what will she stay?

Ye Kui chewed the rice grains carefully and used about half a bowl of rice. Qin Sang came back.

While Ye Mingwan was jogging out and asking someone to make snacks, she called Qin Sang to the side and said, "What's wrong?"

"Bitao's son is seriously ill and has used up all the money at home. She can no longer stay at home. Then she finds a way to take advantage of the time when the fifth lady is short of people." Qin Sang told her the news carefully.

Ye Kui put down the chopsticks in her hand and said, "Do you know what disease is her father suffering from?"

Qin Sang shook his head and explained, "Everything is said, so I can't confirm what disease he has. However, no matter what disease it is, it's still not bad. I heard that ginseng is needed to hang the air, so why is there no shortage of money?"

"Ginseng?" Ye Kui said in a little surprised. For families like Bi Tao, a very ordinary ginseng plant is probably a rare thing, so she couldn't help but not go to the mansion to make monthly money. However, because of this, Ye Kui had a plan in her mind. She thought for a moment, looked at Ye Mingwan's figure who was gradually approaching outside, and quickly said to Qin Sang: "I want to take Bi Tao out, I want to see her alone."

Qin Sang nodded, probably.

As soon as the two of them finished speaking, Ye Mingwan had already arrived in the house and panted and said proudly to Ye Kui: "Second sister, please stay here with me in the afternoon. The fresh lotus seeds were delivered to Fengcheng with the canal boat. Today, I bought a basket of them in the mansion. We made pastries and tasted good."

Ye Kui subconsciously frowned and said, "Is there a basket in the mansion?"

"What the kitchen people said, so I didn't ask them to make all snacks for me, just a small handful." Ye Mingwan said coquettishly.

Ye Kui put a strand of hair falling from her ear because of running, and said, "It's okay to eat it all."

Now that the He family is unable to protect themselves, they may not have the intention to care about such things. Now the Ye family has long since turned from a pool of muddy water into a pool of mud. They are trapped inside and cannot pull out their legs, so they have no time to care about these trivial matters.

But what made her wonder was that if she wanted to buy fresh lotus seeds in the kitchen and come back to eat, how could she buy only a small basket?

How many masters are there in the Ye family? So if a little lotus seed is gone if one person and one chopstick, how can it be enough to eat? But according to Ye Mingwan's words, it is true that there is a basket of ice that almost flows into a river in the Ye family, which runs out of money? So I can't bear to buy more fresh food in the kitchen?

Houses, shops, antique calligraphy and paintings, seem to be valuable, but in fact, when it comes to using silver, these things cannot be used directly.

Thinking about this, the Ye family probably didn't have much cash. Otherwise, the He family had finally come once, and the ones were still their sister-in-law and two nephews. How could He not treat him well and instead look so ugly now? Although some things cannot be done with He Xingzhi's death, and it shouldn't be like this now.

Ye Kui was thinking about these things in her heart, but she was still answering Ye Mingwan in a slight manner.

"Second sister, I heard that you were the one in the room before?" This question was suppressed in her heart for a long time, and Ye Mingwan finally couldn't help asking.

Ye Kui glanced at her sideways and asked, "Where did you hear the rumor from?"

Ye Mingwan giggled and said, "There are so rumors in the mansion. I can't remember where I heard it. But second sister, have you seen third sister? I heard that she is going to be happy for a while?"

"Where did this sound?" Ye Kui laughed, "Nothing is accurate. Don't listen to nonsense in the future. She was injured, but she couldn't die. However, sometimes living is more painful than dying..."

I don’t know whether it was emotion or something else in the last sentence, but Ye Mingwan felt melancholy for no reason.

She frowned and said, "If she didn't do bad things on her daily basis, how could she be knocked by ghosts now? It can be seen that she didn't do anything good on her daily basis. In the past, she would look at me with the look that seemed to have eaten me, which made people uncomfortable when she remembered."

Ye Kui smiled and picked up a piece of lotus seed cake and tasted it, and said to Ye Mingwan: "She's crazy."

"Crazy?" Ye Mingwan suddenly screamed, and the lotus seed cake that had just been stuffed into her mouth fell to the ground with a "splash".

Ye Kui looked at her wide open mouth, then at the pastries on the ground, shook her head helplessly, and said, "It's really crazy." Even if she woke up one day, no one would believe her words. Ye Mingzhu was in great trouble this time.

The two of them talked for a while, and Ye Kui stood up and said goodbye, leaving Ye Mingwan's yard.

But after leaving, she did not go back directly, but followed Qin Sang to another place. In the remote corner, Bi Tao, with a panic-looking face, was trembling, as if she was extremely afraid of staying with them, but for some special reasons, she did not want to leave no matter what, and could only hold on.

After Ye Kui approached, she asked softly: "Are you the Pitao from Heshoutang?"

"Yes... I am Bi Tao..." Bi Tao's tone was also trembling when he spoke, obviously very shocked.

Ye Kui asked Qin Sang to take the wind, and led Bi Tao to the corner a little more, and then asked, "Is your father seriously ill?"

Upon hearing this, Bi Tao suddenly knelt down in front of her with a "thump" and cried, "Miss Two, I know you are a good person, please save my father... Please..." She cried very badly, and her body was lying on the ground and trembling constantly, but because she was afraid that the sound would be too loud and alarm others and annoy Ye Kui, she had to try her best to lower the voice again.

"Your father's life is always in your hands, do you know?" Ye Kui did not help her, nor did she get up, but just looked at her condescendingly and said something.

When Bitao heard this, she vaguely guessed what Ye Kui wanted her to do, but she hadn't thought about what it was.

Ye Kui saw that she looked at her with tears in her eyes, but seemed to have no idea what she was saying. She was amused and crying, so she made it clear and said: "As long as you tell me something truthfully, I will naturally save your father's life."

"What, what?" Bi Tao asked quietly with fear on her face.

Ye Kui squatted down and looked at her side, then said slowly: "When the young lady was talking to her ancestors in the inner room that day, were you nearby?"

"No!" As soon as Ye Kui finished speaking, she decisively rejected it.

But she was still trembling the moment before she said there was no word, and she was even more scared when she spoke. Now she suddenly became so decisive, which made people feel strange!

Ye Kui was not annoyed, and said as usual: "Bitao, I have told you just now. Your father's life is in your hands. If you want to continue lying in front of me, then continue to say it. Your mother's life is now in your hands."

A sentence with a gentle voice fell into Bi Tao's ears, but it seemed like a needle was trying to penetrate it. Ye Kui's voice kept reminding her that if she was not careful, her parents might die at the hands of this old second lady who had always been famous.

At this time, Qin Sang, who was guarding outside, suddenly rushed over and said, "Aunt Yuxi is back from the palace!"

Aunt Yuxi has never come back since she was summoned to the palace by Concubine Pei last time. Now she suddenly came back at this time, and I don’t know why. Ye Kui couldn’t help frowning. Since Aunt Yuxi has returned, she must have to see her soon. Bitao’s affairs may have to be relieved first.

Ye Kui stood up and strode out.

But before he could take a few steps, he suddenly held her calves with both hands.

Bitao knelt behind and cried, "Miss, I said, I said, I said, I said,"

When Ye Kui left, she thought she was going to deal with her family. She was immediately panicked. She still remembered the words her mother said to rot all the things she saw in her stomach. She is only twelve years old this year. Could it be that this matter really be brought to the coffin?

The second lady in front of her is famously ruthless. If she didn't say it, she would definitely kill them directly!

Thinking of this, those words came out of her mouth involuntarily: "I was indeed not far from the inner room that day... I heard my ancestor tell her that she had already watched a marriage for her... The eldest lady first said that she wanted to accompany her for the rest of her life, but she didn't want to get married... Later, the ancestor scolded her, and the eldest lady didn't say anything anymore... The ancestor also said that family..."
