"No way, you only want Ah Si alone..."
Steward He's face froze, thinking he had heard wrong.
From his point of view, even the slaves who come to him are not wanted, this Ye Zifeng who came from a separate family, what is going on in his heart.
"That's right, he's the only one, can't he?" Ye Zifeng smiled slightly.
"this… "
After hearing the words, all the maids and servants showed several joyful expressions on their faces, all these feelings and scenes fell into Ye Zifeng's eyes.
They knelt down at this moment, it was the master's order.
However, in their hearts, there is...all kinds of reluctance!
"Butler He, since Master Zifeng said so himself, why don't you just listen to him..."
They don't want to serve Ye Zifeng, who came from a separate family, because, so what if they are well served? Where can a poor student from the countryside give them any good rewards
"Butler He?"
This time it was Ye Zifeng who asked the question.
"Okay, of course... I'll just go back and return the master."
Butler He came back to his senses, smiled, and immediately became serious.
"Ah Si, what are you still doing in a daze, why don't you hurry up and lead Master Feng to Hanxiang's small courtyard, if he feels a little uncomfortable, you are the only one to ask!"
"Yes Yes… ",
Ah Si pursed her lips, her face turned pale, and she didn't realize that there was cold sweat dripping down her back.
"That...Master Zifeng, this way please." Ah Si smiled apologetically, and pointed to a place not far away.
"Wait!"
Steward He's voice rang in Ah Si's ear again.
"Housekeeper He, what else can I order!" Ah Si was angry, but still had a smile on his face.
"Tonight, the master arranged a dinner to clean up Master Zifeng. Don't forget the master to lead the way when the time comes."
Ah Si was stunned, and nodded again and again: "Of course... I wrote it down!"
…
Although Hanxiang Courtyard is not big, it is unique.
On the green-shaded path, the corner of Ah Si's mouth twitched, several times he hesitated to speak, but he was afraid of offending Ye Zifeng, so he kept silent.
"Si..."
After a while, the first person to speak was Ye Zifeng.
"Yes!" Ah Si was stunned, and immediately replied loudly, still feeling a little uneasy.
Ye Zifeng smiled lightly and waved his hands.
"Si, why are you so reserved? Didn't we have a good chat before?"
A look of embarrassment appeared on Ah Si's face: "This...Master Zifeng, I didn't know something just now, I really offended you!"
"It's okay, I don't care."
In the Ye family's family, no one really treats Ye Zifeng as a young master.
"However, Master Zifeng..."
Ah Si knocked around, seeing no one, so he paused for a moment, then continued.
"Speaking of which, you are a real person who doesn't show your face. When I found out your identity just now, I was terrified."
Ye Zifeng smiled lightly: "Compared to this, I have something to ask you now... This is why I left you alone!"
"What do you want to ask..."
Ah Si was startled, shaking his head, not knowing why.
Ye Zifeng chuckled: "About some things about this family, before going to the dinner party, I want to have a good discussion with you. So, from now on, you can use "yes" and "no" to answer the questions I want to ask. Give me an answer!"
…
It was getting dark.
The bell of "Dong Dong" resounded in everyone's ears.
The lights were brightly lit, and in the open-air compound, a full ten tables of banquets were set up.
In the middle of the banquet, I saw an old man standing against the wind, with his hair fluttering, really like a fairy walking out of a painting, giving people a sense of detachment from the world.
He is the patriarch of the family, Ye Jiudao!
Ye Jiudao raised his head and frowned slightly: "Have you been notified of what you said before? Why hasn't his people come yet?"
Butler He looked into the distance, looked away, and smiled awkwardly.
"This... I specifically told Ah Si to bring Master Zifeng here earlier. I don't know if this kid listened."
Seeing this, the rest of the servants and maids started discussing in a low voice.
"You say... what the hell is this Ye Zifeng doing to make the Patriarch wait for him."
"Hehe, I think so too, Ye Zifeng is really stupid, he doesn't even want the servants given to him before, otherwise, if he is accidentally selected by him and asked us to work for him, he will really cry to death. "
"Isn't that right? You're such an idiot. Let's see later. Maybe if even the master gets angry, he will be kicked out of the house directly."
Zhong Yun has always had excellent hearing, and now hearing such a conversation, she feels very refreshed.
Ye Zifeng was late when he first arrived, without a doubt, he left a bad impression on the Patriarch.
"Keep your voice down, they're all talking nonsense."
Zhong Yun frowned slightly and spoke.
She only spoke softly and did not tell them to shut up, which was already showing her attitude.
"It's... Mrs. Zhong."
A group of people waited for understanding and looked at each other, revealing a playful smile.
next moment…
I don't know who started to yell that sentence.
"Come here, come here, Master Zifeng is here."
"What?"
Everyone was taken aback when they heard the words, turned their heads in unison, and looked at the person who came.
I saw Ye Zifeng's whole body, white clothes fluttering, with a pair of smart phoenix eyes open, chest raised, really imposing, fresh and handsome, making one feel like a spring breeze.
"Zifeng, I have seen all the adults in my family!"
Ye Zifeng bowed to the bottom, there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
Zhong Yun smiled coldly, staring at Ye Zifeng's expression.
"Get up, but Ye Zifeng, what's the delay, why did you come to the dinner party so late? Could it be that you didn't take Master seriously?"
"Who is this… "
Ye Zifeng was stunned for a moment, then turned around, asked Ah Si for advice, and cast a puzzled look.
"It's Mrs. Zhong..." Ah Si cried out incessantly, his heart almost bursting out.
He is now afraid that Ye Zifeng will provoke enemies everywhere and offend people. If so, it will be difficult for him to get along in the Ye Mansion in the future.
What's worse, he felt that this might be getting bigger and bigger.
"So it's Mrs. Zhong. It's like this...Zifeng has just arrived and prepared some small gifts for everyone present. It's inevitable that there will be a delay in time. I hope you don't take offense."
"Gift?"
Not to mention that Zhong Yun felt strange, at this moment, even Ye Jiudao took a deep look at Ye Zifeng, with a strange brilliance in his eyes.
The rest of the people frowned. Obviously, what they were thinking in their hearts was far from what was actually happening now.
"Tell me more specifically, Ye Zifeng, what is the gift you want to give us?" Ye Jiudao stroked his long beard and laughed out loud.
Ye Zifeng came here empty, since he said he brought a gift, it must have been put in the space ring or jade pendant.
But in a short time, he just came here, what gifts can he prepare
Ye Zifeng smiled and nodded: "First of all, Ye Chengfeng, Master Feng..."
However, when he spoke.
Ye Chengfeng was flirting with a pretty maid, and couldn't hear Ye Zifeng's words.
"Feng'er, Feng'er... calling you!"
Seeing her own son's disappointment, Zhong Yun couldn't help feeling angry.
Ye Chengfeng saw the eyes all around him focus on him, and even his voice became quiet.
It wasn't until this time that he managed to come back to his senses, pursed his lips, and asked suspiciously.
"What's wrong, who called me?"
"Your cousin called you and said he wanted to give you a gift." Zhong Yun's tone was extremely stiff.
Ye Chengfeng frowned, turned around and faced Ye Zifeng with an indifferent expression.
"Waste... no, Ye Zifeng, right? What is the gift you want to give me?"
He grew up with a golden spoon in his mouth, a person from a separated family, the first time we met, he said he would give himself a gift.
You know, he doesn't like ordinary gifts.
Ye Zifeng smiled indifferently: "During your sword practice, did you find that every time you went to Yuchi to break through and release your aura, the dagger in your hand would often fly out, very difficult to control, right?"
Ye Chengfeng didn't take it seriously at first, but after Ye Zifeng finished speaking, his expression suddenly changed.
"What? How do you know that?"
Ye Zifeng didn't give an explanation, but smiled and took out a black iron ring from the magic crystal ring.
Immediately, he threw it at Ye Chengfeng regardless of whether the other party wanted it or not.
"then!"
A gleam flashed in Ye Chengfeng's eyes, and he sold it like lightning, and grabbed the black iron ring in his hand.
"This is… "
Ye Zifeng smiled and said.
"This is a sword sheath I just bought from the market. It is used to increase the weight of the dagger. If you embed it on your dagger, it will save a lot from the dagger flying out in the future. "
"Is this true?"
"If you don't believe me, you can ask the Patriarch."
Ye Jiudao was stunned for a moment, then smiled brightly, nodded and said, "That's right, Feng'er, this method is indeed more suitable for you."
As soon as this remark came out, even Zhong Yun couldn't say anything more, after all, it was the Patriarch's intention.
"That's great!"
Ye Chengfeng laughed out loud, and his mood became joyful.
You know, although Ye Chengfeng has been practicing swords for a long time, his aptitude is very low. Even his own father thought he was stupid and didn't bother to teach him how to practice swords.
At this time, he got his cousin, Ye Zifeng's guidance, and the feeling in his heart was a bit subtle.
After a while.
The color of joy on Ye Chengfeng's face grew stronger: "Oh? This iron ring is also destined for me, and it matches my dagger perfectly. Is this really destined?"
What he didn't know was that Ah Si who was standing aside looked stunned, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he was speechless for a long time.
Because, he already understood.
Why did Ye Zifeng look at it for a long time after picking up the golden dagger.
So, he sighed in a low voice and shook his head.
"It's not a fate, it's a deliberate act..."
