As soon as Hua Yanxi entered the backyard, she heard a burst of voices.
It was a few guards who were looking after the housekeeper, but the housekeeper's wife and children were not there.
Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Hua Yanxi entering the courtyard. The guard hurriedly reminded: "Madam is here, hurry up."
The housekeeper was always honest, but this was the first time he lied. He didn't know where to move his hands and feet, so he could only cry according to the script: "I don't want to live anymore, why did you save me, just let me die like this?"
"Butler, please don't let your mind wander. If you die, you really won't be able to turn back." The guard consoled him.
"What's going on? Why do you want to live a life of death and boredom when everything is going well?" Hua Yanxi asked.
The hands in the butler's sleeves pinched his thighs hard, and he forced back two tears. He remembered the excuses he had discussed before, and stiffly came out of his mouth: "I, my banknote was bitten by a mouse."
, that, that was all saved by the hard work of our family of three. I am too embarrassed to see my family, and I can’t feel sorry for them."
After saying that, he seemed to have entered that illusion, and his eyes became red.
Hua Yanxi breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
She said, why are there so many family discords? It turned out to be because of this incident.
However, I couldn't think about how much this family might have lost this time because they usually lived frugally.
Hua Yanxi comforted her for a while, saying that she would make up for any property losses in the house, and then went back to the accounting office to withdraw money.
Just as he was about to go back after settling the housekeeper's matters, he saw Ye Yibai standing near the door.
"Why are you here? Didn't Ye Juechen look for you? Didn't you guys meet him?" Hua Yanxi asked.
Ye Yi said with a pale face but not a red heart, "Is he here? What is he here for?"
"Look at you on behalf of your father."
"Tsk, let him see it. It's best not to meet him. I get annoyed when I see his face." Ye Yibai snorted coldly.
"If I can't do it today, I have to ask him to take me to the official prison."
"Why are you going to the Ministry of Civil Affairs? Hasn't the Prime Minister's matter been resolved? The rest is for the Three Law Departments to worry about."
"I think this matter has something to do with the Queen Mother. Mrs. Lin should know something. I'll go see if I can find out anything." Hua Yanxi said.
Regarding whether the Queen Mother was involved in the Prince Liang case, Ye Yibai was not sure. Anyway, the Queen Mother had not survived him in her previous life.
The two walked towards the backyard while chatting, and happened to see Ah Ying walking in with a bucket of flour and a bucket of flour on her head.
"What's going on?" Hua Yanxi frowned.
Ah Ying did not reply to Hua Yanxi's words, but instead looked at his master with resentment: "Master, since you have a plan, why didn't you warn others."
Seeing him like this, Ye Yibai didn't feel any guilt at all. Instead, he said contemptuously: "It's useless, you can't avoid this."
Ah Ying was dissatisfied. He was the best in Qinggong among the guards.
"The subordinate didn't avoid it, but the seventh prince reacted too quickly. When the flour on his head fell, he grabbed the subordinate, causing the subordinate to be in trouble as well."
"What about him?"
Ah Ying chuckled: "He's in the house, no, my subordinates are fetching water for him to take a bath."
When the flour on his head poured down, he was about to run, but was grabbed by the Seventh Prince, but most of the flour still fell on him, and his whole body was buried like a snowman.
"He's not angry?" Ye Yibai raised his eyebrows.
Ah Ying shook his head: "I don't know, the expression was covered with flour, and my subordinates couldn't see it. I just calmly asked my subordinates to prepare for bathing and dressing."
"Go on, go on, find a set of my clothes and send them over later." Ye Yibai waved his hand.
