Chapter 108 Who fell off the cliff?
"No, I really care about my sister-in-law. Please forgive Yuanru for not knowing how to speak properly. I will discipline her properly when we get back."
"Sister Xue, I think you should go and see your brother. He was struck by lightning at the door last night and is lying in bed unable to get up. He must be waiting for you to take care of him."
“Sister-in-law, I have already asked about my brother. It’s really bad that the lightning struck him.”
Hearing this, Xue Ruoxue felt that Liu Yunshu had already become suspicious of them.
"God is fair. Last night, my aunt said that those with bad intentions would be struck by lightning, and my uncle was struck by lightning the next moment. He must have done something shady in secret!"
These words, coming from Liu Langyue, didn't seem too wrong, so Xue Ruoxue explained with a dry laugh:
“Miss Liu, you must have misunderstood. Your brother has a good reputation, how could he be a person with ill intentions? It must have been an accident, that the wrong person was struck.”
"Hey! They say that God has eyes and is always watching over those who do evil. How could He have struck down the wrong person? In my opinion, those who are wicked will be punished by God sooner or later."
Xue Ruoxue couldn't keep smiling; she couldn't gain the upper hand. If she had known that the Liu family mother and daughter were here, she would have come later.
Ye Yaoyao returned to the Ye residence, and the carriage stopped. Ye Li'an took a nap in the carriage and felt better.
Ye Yaoyao got off the carriage first, and carefully helped him down, saying, "Big brother, be careful."
"Little sister, I'm fine, I can walk by myself." Ye Li'an smiled helplessly.
Sigh! My younger sister always treats him like a weak scholar.
When Butler Li saw the brother and sister at the door, his face lit up with joy, and he jogged over with light steps.
"Young Master, Fourth Miss, it's wonderful that you're back!" Butler Li's voice trembled with excitement.
"Butler Li, please help my elder brother inside."
"Little sister, no need!"
"Ah! Okay, okay!"
Butler Li glanced at the two siblings. Ye Yaoyao was clearly in better spirits than Ye Li'an, and knew that the people outside had spread the wrong information; the one who fell off the cliff should have been the eldest young master.
"Young Master, be careful where you walk."
"Brother, watch out for the threshold!"
Butler Li and Ye Yaoyao each took one side of Ye Li'an and carefully helped her walk inside.
Ye Li'an: Who exactly fell off the cliff? He was just caught in the rain last night and has a slight fever.
Ye Li'an was helped into the house and was seen by the Xin family mother and daughter who had come to visit Liu Yunshu. The two of them stood there stunned.
"Who exactly fell off the cliff?" Madam Xin asked.
"I don't know, he was fine when I was with Brother Ye."
Ye Yaoyao helped the person walk towards Chunnuan Pavilion. The maid, seeing them return, beamed with a bright smile and excitedly said:
"Young Master and Fourth Miss, Madam is very worried about you. She can't even eat. I'll go and inform her right away."
Ye Yaoyao stopped the maid and said to Ye Li'an with a smile:
"Wait! No need to announce our arrival, we'll go in ourselves, brother, we want to give Mother a surprise."
"it is good!"
"By the way, Fourth Miss, this morning, Madam Xue and her daughter came to the manor. They might come to see Madam," Butler Li reminded her.
"They're already inside," the maid replied.
"A weasel offering New Year's greetings to a chicken is up to no good. Let's go in and have a word with her."
Upon arriving at the entrance of the main hall, they indeed heard Xue Ruoxue's affected words.
"I sincerely hope that Yaoyao can come back safe and sound..."
"Oh! Really? I'm back, Aunt Xue. I'm back just as you wished. Aren't you happy?"
Upon hearing Ye Yaoyao's voice, everyone was stunned. Xue Ruoxue's eyes widened as she watched Ye Yaoyao help Ye Li'an in, her face filled with disbelief.
Ye Lian was helped to sit in a chair, while Liu Yunshu and her group were still in a daze.
"Ahem! Mother, I'm back."
"Yaoyao, my Yaoyao, I knew you would be alright."
As if waking from a dream, Liu Yunshu walked towards Ye Yaoyao, her eyes filled with tears of excitement.
"Yaoyao."
"Little sister!"
"Cousin! We were so worried!"
Several people surrounded her, pulling her around to look at her from left to right.
"Haha! I'm fine now!"
Holding Liu Yunshu tightly, Ye Yaoyao kissed her and patted her back to comfort her.
Xue Ruoxue looked like she'd seen a ghost. Wasn't Ye Yaoyao supposed to have fallen off a cliff? How come she's perfectly fine?
Ye Lian didn't seem to be seriously injured.
They all touched Ye Yaoyao and realized that she was really safe and sound.
"What happened to Li An?" Liu Yunshu hugged her daughter, only then remembering her son who had been helped in.
"Mother, I'm fine." Ye Li'an shook her head helplessly.
"Oh, right, Sister Dongzhu, go and get some medicine for colds and fevers and boil it up."
"Yes! This servant will go right away." Dongzhu was also very happy to see her young mistress return, and quickly ran out.
"Yaoyao, you have a fever? Sit down quickly. Someone, go and fetch a doctor."
"No need to call a doctor, it's my elder brother who has a fever, not me."
"Brother, you've worked hard. You should go back and rest. I'll bring the medicine to you when it's ready." Ye Xiyao stepped forward to show her concern.
"No need, I took a nap in the carriage and I feel much better now. I can sit up."
Seeing that the brother and sister were alright, with only one of them catching a cold and having a fever, Xue Ruoxue's heart was bleeding. She forced a smile, but her heart was filled with resentment.
"So Yaoyao didn't fall off the cliff after all. It's true that rumors from the outside world can't be trusted entirely."
"Yes! I fell off a cliff."
"Little Yaoyao, you look perfectly fine, how did you fall off the cliff?"
Ye Yuanru, like her mother, was extremely unhappy.
"That's because I'm incredibly lucky; I landed on a tree trunk halfway down a cliff and am now sitting here enjoying the view!"
"Cousin, you can do this? You really are the chosen one."
Liu Langyue gave a thumbs up, her eyes full of admiration.
Of course, they also knew that it was impossible to fall off a cliff unscathed; there must be more to the story.
Xue Ruoxue and her daughter were as if they had seen a ghost, and completely believed what Ye Mian said about Ye Yaoyao being abnormal.
"Now that you're back, you should get some rest. We'll head back now."
Xue Ruoxue couldn't stay any longer and hurriedly got up with Ye Yuanru.
"Take care, and don't bother seeing me off!"
The Xin family mother and daughter brushed past Xue Ruoxue. Hearing what Ye Yaoyao said, Xin Chuli thought she was incredibly lucky and walked in to ask:
"Little sister Yaoyao, tell me quickly, how did you manage to stay safe on the cliff?"
"Alright, then I'll tell you. Sit down and listen carefully."
Ye Yaoyao knew that her situation had caused everyone worry, so she decided to act as a storyteller and recount her experiences from yesterday.
"Speaking of which, when a large group of martial arts practitioners rushed towards our carriage... the wind on the cliff just wouldn't cooperate, and then I accidentally lost my footing and fell off."
"And then?" Ye Yaoyao's description was so vivid that everyone was eager to see what would happen next.
"Then a man in black jumped down and tied my waist with vines. Fortunately, he was skilled in martial arts, so we just sat there in mid-air."
[Sigh! I wasn't injured because all the injuries were inflicted on Han Ming.]
Triplets: Who is Han Ming?
