She was still dressed brightly and her face was rosy and shiny, not affected at all.
Ever since Yang Jinxi gave Liu Yiyi a slap in the face, Liu Yiyi only stayed calm for a few days, and then she secretly got involved with Lou Ming. Now, no one in the house knows about her troubles.
People don’t know anymore.
As for why Liu Yiyi was so blatant, it was probably because her second brother Yang Chengxuan bumped into her several times, but did not explicitly stop him. Instead, he spoke for the two of them in front of Yang Jinxi. From then on, Liu Yiyi became even more confident in the house.
But as long as she didn't bring it to light, Yang Jinxi would just follow her and just turn a blind eye, just hoping that her two younger brothers would become talented as soon as possible.
"Auntie..." Housekeeper Xia called out politely, standing aside with her eyes lowered, looking a little reserved.
Liu Yiyi had already seen the two of them outside the door, and looked at Butler Xia up and down, and then pretended to be surprised and said: "Hey, who do I think it is? It turns out to be Butler Xia..."
She covered her mouth and chuckled, "I haven't seen Butler Xia for a long time. Now that the Hele Building is closed, it's our Yang Mansion again?"
Not long after the snowstorm caused the disaster, Yang Jinxi ordered the temporary closure of Helelou and other restaurants and shops, and asked Butler Xia to transport most of the food from the warehouse and set up a shed in front of the house to serve porridge, which barely managed to survive.
It took more than half a month. However, Liu Yiyi's words were really offensive. Butler Xia couldn't refute, but Yang Jinxi couldn't bear it.
"What did my aunt say? Butler Xia is a member of our Yang Mansion. What does it mean to be a steward of Hele House and come to the Yang Mansion? Have you forgotten that Butler Xia entered the mansion before you?" Yang Jinxi breathed out calmly
After finishing speaking, he nodded to Butler Xia and said, "Steward Xia, you go down first and do as I say. There are officers and soldiers at the pass clearing snow and paving the road. It won't take long."
"Yes." Butler Xia didn't want to waste time here. He bowed slightly and turned around and left. In an instant, they were the only two people left in the room.
After a moment of silence, Liu Yiyi spoke first.
"Third Miss, there are so many victims in Xiling now. The court's relief materials are said to have been waiting at the pass for a long time, but they haven't been able to get in for so long. The mountain has been blocked by heavy snow for so long. Do you think the food can still be intact?
For us people? Besides..." Liu Yiyi found a chair and sat down, smacking her lips while admiring the freshly made Dankou and said, "No matter how hard you help the victims, you have to ensure that we, the Yang family, can
Are you well fed and warm?" Liu Yiyi blew on her fingertips and looked at her, "Miss Three, do you really think we are as rich as the rest of the country?"
Often, the disaster relief food and wages sent by the court passed through one level after another, but in fact very few reached the hands of the people. In the final analysis, if the court did not do anything, the poor people would be the poor ones, and it would not treat those wealthy businessmen.
It won't have much impact. Maybe someone with a bad heart can take the opportunity to make more money from it. I don't know.
What Liu Yiyi said was not completely wrong. Her charity and porridge were definitely not a long-term solution. Before deciding to set up a tent to provide porridge, she went to the merchants who had dealings with the Yang Mansion, but they heard that the Yang Mansion decided to provide relief to the victims.
After that, they all pretended to be deaf and made various excuses to refuse to provide the food at home. In this regard, Yang Jinxi was not too pushy and only followed profit. This is the nature of a businessman.
All the crops in the city were covered by heavy snow, and food was the most important thing for the people. The food in the mansion was not enough to last for a month, and at most half a month. If relief food had not arrived in the city in half a month, then there was nothing she could do.
"I can't even say 'as rich as the country', but auntie, aren't you living a good life now? And your adopted brother," Yang Jinxi opened her mouth and smiled, "I heard that he was still in the western suburbs some time ago.
I have bought a small courtyard for him, and I will go to ask for a cup of hot tea some other day. After all, it is inappropriate not to go there with my father's money, what do you think, auntie?"
Liu Yiyi thought that she had covered up the situation very well, but she didn't expect that Yang Jinxi had known about it for a long time. She stood up from the chair in a panic.
"Third Miss, you have cut off my money a long time ago. The small courtyard is my own money, not the master's...the master gave it to me a long time ago..." Liu Yiyi became less and less confident as she continued to talk.
I was silent for a long time.
"What my father gave you has been squandered long ago, but what's the difference between the silver you got from selling gold and silver jewelry and what the Yang family gave you? It's good to use some and eat it, but I don't want it."
If you have too many delusions, you will never die of hunger." Yang Jinxi looked at her face with calm eyes as her face became more and more ugly, and her tone became sharper, "I originally wanted to kill Lou Ming many times to avoid future troubles, but then I thought about it.
Think about it, you can’t blame him entirely for the mistake.”
Liu Yiyi quickly rushed to Yang Jinxi, glared angrily, and asked loudly: "You! How dare you follow me?!"
"If you don't want others to know, you have to do it yourself. I'm just a little curious about why my aunt likes such a man who can only talk so sweetly, so I paid more attention to it and discovered some secrets by the way." Yang Jinxi turned around and said
Looking at her again, "People must learn to be content. Before I come to you, it's best not to come to me, lest the anger in my heart that has no place to release may be released on you. That's it."
It’s bad…after all, I don’t like anyone I meet these days.”
"You!..." Liu Yiyi was speechless, but Yang Jinxi had already said this. If she hadn't learned something, she and her second brother would be the ones who would suffer.
Seeing Liu Yiyi's face turning red with anger and walking away, Yang Jinxi sighed deeply, walked to the couch and lay down. The problems in front of her were getting more and more difficult. She saw more and more people being displaced and starved of food.
, she suddenly felt tired after not having a good rest for several days.
"Miss, please take a rest. I'm afraid your body will collapse if you continue like this. Then who will take charge of the overall situation?" Lu Yun stood aside and said worriedly, his two thin eyebrows frowning into slightly undulating hills.
Maybe she was very tired from working for many days. Yang Jinxi was lying on the couch without moving or responding. Seeing this, Lu Yun quickly took a thin blanket from the side and put it around her waist, and then put the stove in the stove.
He added some charcoal to the fire and moved gently and carefully, for fear of waking up Yang Jinxi who was sleeping.
Finally, he opened the window a small crack, and after Lu Yun confirmed it again, he quietly left the house.
Yang Jinxi, who had originally planned to close her eyes and take a nap for a while, actually fell asleep like this. However, she always felt that there was a pair of eyes looking at her, and her heart felt inexplicably tight, and she could not even dream peacefully.
"Hmm..." Yang Jinxi snorted and slowly opened her eyes. However, she was so frightened that she jumped up from the couch and almost fell down. Fortunately, someone with quick eyesight and hands quickly caught her.
Ignoring the blanket that fell to the floor, Yang Jinxi rubbed her eyes, looked at him and said with surprise and joy: "Al Yuna!? Why are you here?" She was full of joy at this time and had no sleep at all.
