Chapter 2 The dove occupies the magpie's nest
Ye Wan did not rush into the yard, but stood lightly at the entrance of the yard. In the spacious courtyard, a girl dressed in rich and ordinary looks were playing shuttlecock with a middle-aged woman in the same style. The middle-aged woman first saw a strange man at the entrance of the yard and said angrily: "Who are you?!"
The girl who looked only thirteen or fourteen years old looked at her and found that she was a few handsome young men. She suddenly couldn't take her eyes away and let the shuttlecock fall to the ground.
"You, don't come in! It's in broad daylight... I dare to rob the house? Master, my master is coming back soon!" The middle-aged woman saw Ye Wan walking in from the door with a bad look, and immediately screamed. "Come on, come on! Bihe, Bihe, you hide quickly!"
The girl named Bihe was shocked by her shouting, and then she realized that she had been staring at someone for a long time. She blushed and lowered her head and said, "Mom, stop shouting... First, ask who they are, they don't look like bad people..." When she said that, she had already had a small voice like a mosquito. If Ye Wan and the others were not martial arts practitioners, they would not be able to hear clearly what she was saying.
Ye Wan casually found a stone bench in the yard and sat down. Looking at the well-organized Lu Yingyuan, who was obviously inhabited, she sneered: "Oh? Who is your master?" It would be better not to be what she thought.
"In fact, you untouchables can find out about the name of my master. I... Mrs. I am the master of this mansion! If you know the truth, give it to me and get out of my wife!" the middle-aged woman shouted, her harsh and her appearance was not intimidating at all.
Ye Wan looked at the yard with extraordinary decorations and the mother and daughter with pearls and gold jewelry. Suddenly, she thought of the gap on the antique shelf in the study and couldn't help but smile. "Your master... can't be the manager of this general's mansion?"
When the middle-aged woman heard that the person who came knew his master's name, she straightened her chest and said, "It's good that you know. If you are afraid, get out quickly! Otherwise, when my master comes back, she will immediately ask the general to chop your head!"
Zhou Jian and Duan Hongyang also realized what was going on and were both angry and laughed. Zhou Jian said, "Your master is a small general's mansion in charge. Why did you ask the general to chop our heads?"
"Hmph, you don't have to worry about this! The general gave this huge palace to our master. Isn't it because my master is very capable and highly favored by his general? As long as he casually mentions to the general, your head on your neck will be no longer protected! Bihe, go and see if your father is back?" The woman shouted, protecting her daughter and approaching the gate of the yard.
The girl Bihe approached Ye Wan's side, feeling that her breathing was about to stop, and her face was blushing and she couldn't even say a word. "I...I, young master..."
Duan Hongyang was so mean that he immediately stepped forward and pretended to touch the girl's butt. The girl instantly changed her face and shouted as sharply as her mother: "Ah, hooligan! It's so bad, it's so bad! Where did the untouchables come from, dare to touch the girl's butt..." Ye Wan and his group looked exhausted. This girl should have thought that they were people from the outside city or thieves passing by.
"Hey, if you are not a little jass, don't pretend to be delicate in front of us Brother Ye. Look, the nature of a tigress is exposed, right?" Duan Hongyang looked at Ye Wan teasingly and laughed, "I'll just say, how can the old sow give birth to peacocks!"
Zhen Yu took a slap in his forehead that was afraid of the world and said helplessly: "Be careful that Ye Wan's military law will deal with you later."
Duan Hongyang's laughter came to an abrupt end, and he hid behind Zhou Jian and whispered to Ye Wan: "Brother Ye, I'm helping you not be confused by women, don't thank me!"
"Bihe, Bihe! Are you doing anything? Come on, killing someone! You are inappropriate to a good woman!" The middle-aged woman was afraid that her daughter would suffer a loss, so she hurriedly stepped forward to protect her daughter behind her and wanted to pull Ye Wan.
The mother and daughter are tantrums.
Ye Wan turned her body and avoided her claws without moving. He heard a shocked and angry roar from the gate of the yard: "Who! How dare you bully my daughter!" The main owner came.
The housekeeper was only under forty years old, and all dressed in ordinary clothes. Even with a green jade ring on his hand, he saw Ye Wan and others sitting in the main courtyard, and his wife and daughter were already crying. He immediately became angry and picked up the big stone beside the flower bed and walked towards Ye Wan.
Ye Wanfei flew over a cold eye knife and smiled and said, "Master Butler?"
The eyes stopped the housekeeper's movements. After a while, I realized that I was frightened by a young boy. I yelled with my neck: "Who are you!" Then I was startled by Zhou Jian and Duan Hongyang's fists with a smirk. When I loosened my hand, the stone fell down and fell on my feet. "Ao--!" He screamed.
"Master!" "Dad!"
Assuming that the servant guarding the gate had no time to inform him, Ye Wan stood up and walked to the butler who was sitting on the ground screaming with his feet in his arms. He said gloomyly: "There is no tiger in the mountains, and the monkey is called the king. The butler is really good at it."
The butler's neck chilled, and he repeatedly made sure that he had never seen this young man. As soon as he came back from the back door, he heard the cry of his wife and daughter from afar, and rushed over... These people in military uniforms... wait? Wearing military uniforms?! The butler's heart arrested instantly and a cold sweat broke out on his forehead. "Please, please... you are..."
Ye Wan took out the waist tag again and lit it up, sneering: "Is it because the general hasn't come back for several years, so this master has regarded this mansion as his own?"
When the butler saw the bronze plaque with the words "Inspector's Captain" inscribed, his eyes suddenly turned black and he fainted.
"Pinch him to wake him up." Ye Wan said coldly.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Jian immediately stepped forward and pinched the butler. No matter how thin Zhou Jian was, he was still a soldier. He was so serious that the butler screamed when he was pinched, and then he opened his eyes quietly.
"Give you a quarter of an hour to bring the other six servants in the mansion to me." Ye Wan said.
The butler struggled to look at his wife and daughter who had been hugging him in a silent voice. He didn't care about the pain on his toes and gritted his teeth and said, "Yes..."
Soon, seven servants, including the butler, were already tremblingly kneeling in Lu Ying's courtyard.
Ye Wan gently sipped the tea made from the best Longjing that Zhou Jian found from the room and said leisurely: "Who tells me what happened in the past six years?"
The other six servants all looked at Butler Sun who had knocked his head to the ground, and they didn't dare to speak.
"If you don't say anything, you can only pack and send it to Jingzhao Yin Yamen with Butler Sun." Ye Wan narrowed his eyes. Butler Sun really enjoyed it. Not only did he say that he was a master, but the tea he drank was all good tea worth two taels of silver per pot.
When he heard that he was going to be sent to the yamen, the cook kowtowed and cried, "Please be the master! We were all rude envoys who applied for a job in the mansion six years ago. The general has been away over the years. Butler Sun randomly exploited and deprived us of us, holding our contract to sell our body and ask us to do this and that, so that we can go east and we dare not go west..."
"You old lady is talking nonsense! I didn't give you monthly money to squeeze you out?!" Butler Sun lowered his head and cursed angrily.
"I promised to pay half a tael of monthly silver! I only got it for 300 cents! What's not about you expunging?" The woman knew that Butler Sun was going to be unlucky today, so she complained to Ye Wan. "The adult who bought us agreed to pay us ten years of wages at one time. Because the general didn't come back often, I thought that it was a good job if I didn't have to serve my master and had money to get it. Unexpectedly... Unexpectedly, Butler Sun misled all the money and gave us some money every month!"
"Yes, yes!" Seeing the woman complaining, the other two servants also spoke.
One of them said, "I also have a wife and son. The family is counting on my salary to live with my salary! Look at the workmanship in the General's Mansion, which is so grand and beautiful. In fact, the moonlight in one month is not as good as the boy next door to my family, who works chores at Mr. Shang's house! They are all greedy for butler Sun... We have signed a contract for ten years to sell our bodies, and it is really hard to say."
Butler Sun and Mrs. Sun Bihe, who was kneeling next to her, suddenly turned blue and white.
"Oh? Why did the front yard fail like this? I think the gate may not have been opened for a long time."
"Butler Sun doesn't let us go to the front yard to clean. It's said that it's not good to be affected by someone seeing it... Usually everyone goes in and out of the door, so..." Another servant said shyly.
Just two chores, if you want to organize the huge general's mansion, it is impossible to clean it up in an orderly manner. Ye Wan was not confused and turned her eyes to the two shaking maids who had been afraid to speak: "What do you say? You look like you are only in your teenage years, didn't they recruited together six years ago?"
The two maids looked at each other and cried out in a thrust: "Please be the master! Butler Sun is a bastard, he is simply not a human!"
"Shut up, don't talk nonsense!" Butler Sun immediately got up and wanted to cover their mouths when he heard this. Duan Hongyang, who was standing not far away, kicked him in the butt and flipped over.
A maid took the opportunity to say, "We were the rude envoys who were recruited only two years ago. At that time, Butler Sun said that the general's mansion was short of people and the moon silver was very high. So we signed a contract to sell our bodies and followed us... but he didn't know! Who knew..." She choked up and covered her eyes, "As soon as we came in, I was still the eldest daughter of Huanghua. Butler Sun was afraid of his wife and dared not marry us home as concubines, and kept secretly..."
"Woo woo, how can we get married in the future!" Another maid and she cried and hugged her together.
After hearing this, the lady Sun rushed up and grabbed Butler Sun's ear and shouted loudly: "Okay, you! I said, why do you sometimes fall asleep in the middle of the night and sneak out? It turns out you..."
Young Master Duan was jealous of evil and immediately rushed up to beat Butler Sun when he heard this.
Ye Wan glanced lightly at the jade bracelet and pearl earrings exposed on the cuffs of the maid who was hugging each other and crying, and smiled and said, "You said you were forced by Butler Sun? Not that's all?" One was willing to beat the other and the other was willing to be beaten, but Ye Wan had no interest in standing up for such a person. She gently put the teacup on the stone table and made a crisp "plash" sound.
The two maids shook and looked unnaturally closing their sleeves and braids.
"Here." Zhou Jian pulled Duan Hongyang's hem, signaled Duan Hongyang to see the jewelry worn by the two of them, and curled his lips.
"Okay! You dare to buy bracelets for the vixen. Let me see if I won't beat you to death!" Mrs. Sun screamed and rushed to scratch Butler Sun's face, "I said why do you use less money? It turns out that you have used it to raise a young man!"
When Sun Bihe saw her parents fighting, she cried and didn't know what to do, so she had to keep glanced at Ye Wan with her red and swollen and sad eyes.
"When it comes to silver..." Ye Wan looked at the scene of domestic violence in front of her and suddenly spoke quietly. Her long tail tilt made Butler Sun, whose face had been scratched several times, shook. "Take off the two new maids, the people who hired you had given you ten years of Yueyin at one time. I'm counting one tael of silver for one tael of silver for one person, but only six hundred taels. Where did you gold, silver jewelry, and the Longjing with two taels of silver a pot... come from?"
Butler Sun and Mrs. Sun stopped fighting, and the two crawled on the ground and shook like sieves.
"Zhou Jian," Ye Wan shouted lightly. "Go and search the house."
"Yes, Brother Ye!"
Butler Sun and Mrs. Sun frequently exchanged winks below, their hands trembling so hard that they didn't know what to do.
"The ring on Butler Sun's hand is about 200 taels." Zhen Yu glanced at Butler Sun's hand. He was the legitimate son of a first-class military general. He had never seen any good things given by the court and King Yu. He could figure out the value of the jade ring at first glance.
Zhou Jian came out of the main wing room of Lu Yingyuan in a short while and placed a jewelry box in his hand on the stone table beside Ye Wan. "Brother Ye, there are a lot of gold and silver jewelry inside, and there are two thousand taels of silver notes on the bottom."
The servants who were kneeling in a crowd suddenly exclaimed a burst of surprise. They only had a few hundred cigarettes of Yueyin every month, and they had never seen thousands of taels of silver in their lives. What did this butler Sun, who killed thousands of swords, do that he had hidden so much money?!
"Butler Sun, I don't know how many ornaments in this mansion... have you sold? There are also antique calligraphy, painting, famous wood and jade. Why don't you tell me while I'm in a good mood now?" Ye Wan said with a smile. It is absolutely impossible for the imperial court to give an empty mansion. For the sake of face, she would put some valuable things inside. But she walked all the way through the main hall and the side hall, but there was not even furniture, not to mention the dust traces left behind by the original things on the ancient shelf.
"I...I don't know what the adults are saying..." Butler Sun said with a tough bullet, "These are my wife's dowry and the accumulated karma passed down from my ancestors. They have nothing to do with the General's Mansion!"
"Yes, yes, it's all my dowry! It's my dowry!" Facing such a big deal, Mrs. Sun was not in the mood to have a fight with Butler Sun, and repeatedly denied Ye Wan's words.
Ye Wan nodded and said to Zhen Yu, who was beside him: "Take the contract of Butler Sun to check their identity and background. How could those who can save thousands of taels of silver come to work in the General's Mansion? Oh... Chiyu didn't sell the contract for us, it doesn't matter, the government must have a bottom line. By the way, take the portrait of Butler Sun is a major pawnshop antique shop to ask what this person has sold."
Zhen Yu nodded and turned around and went out immediately.
Butler Sun's face suddenly felt ashamed. He ignored the pushing of the old man begging for mercy and begged for mercy: "Sir, please spare me, sir! I am all obsessed with it. I thought the general would not come back to guard the west. Then... I knew I was wrong, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, will you come back!"
"I, I will tell you! I will tell you honestly! I just used my bad mind four years ago and took my wife and daughter into the mansion to live... I was so naive that I liked this Lu Yingyuan very much... I dared to move in... The mansion, I also sold the furniture ornaments in the mansion! It was all my fault, and it was all my fault!" Butler Sun kept thrusting his face, hoping that Ye Wan could open the door.
Ye Wan was unmoved. If Chu Hui really never returned to Yanjing in his life, it would be possible that the general's mansion would be directly evacuated by Butler Sun. Although it is no different from evacuating now.
"Get the account book of the warehouse in the mansion." Ye Wan raised his eyebrows. The ancient rules were rigorous. You would remember clearly what you bought or what you bought on the order. If you want to know how much money Mr. Sun had lost his money in the general's mansion, you can tell by looking at the account book.
Butler Sun's expression was even more like a zombie's return, pale and unresponsive. A maid volunteered to shout: "I know where the booklet is! I'll get it!" Perhaps it was to regain his image in Ye Wan's heart.
Ye Wan nodded, and the maid immediately ran out. Another maid looked at her back and gritted her teeth with hatred. Why didn't she get anything out of Butler Sun's mouth?
