Xie Anbai is well-known as a devil in the capital. He does nothing serious but is good at eating, drinking and having fun.
He is easy to get around, well-connected and well-informed.
Since these words came out of his mouth, people couldn't help but think more about it.
"Do you know him?" Shen Yanchuan asked with raised eyebrows.
Xie Nabai touched her chin and thought for a long time, then frowned and shook her head: "No. If I had seen someone who looked like this, I would definitely be impressed."
The first time he met Ye Chutang was at night. It was dark and there was still a distance, so he couldn't take a closer look.
At that time, I thought she was a rare beauty, but when I looked again, I realized that the woman standing by the door with raised lips and a slight smile looked strangely familiar, as if I had seen her somewhere.
But after Xie Anbai thought for a while, he couldn't figure out where this inexplicable feeling of familiarity came from.
"I guess I saw it wrong!" Xie Anbai simply gave up, "It's hard to tell if I've had a glimpse of it from a distance in the capital before. After all, the capital is so big, it's normal for many people not to see each other again. Besides, it's not that they are brothers and sisters. A few of them fled from the north three years ago? I guess they were no longer in the capital by then."
Shen Yanchuan's eyes dimmed slightly: "Really?"
Xie Anbai has been in the capital longer than him and knows more about it. If even he said so, it would really be difficult to check.
He pondered for a moment and asked: "By the way, I heard that there is not much peace in Beijing recently?"
This was a polite question.
Xie Anbai chuckled: "That's not all! It's such a big fuss! The last Tongzhou River Embankment corruption case involved a lot of people, and many positions were vacated, especially the vacancy of the left minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Several people were eyeing it, vying for the top spot. Break the blood!"
If he hadn't wanted to avoid this trouble, he wouldn't have run out so simply.
"There's no conclusion yet on this matter, but another thing is certain - Xu Fengchi has made great achievements this time and is going to move up."
Xie Anbai couldn't help but tsk,
"If you are promoted again, you will be the third-ranking official, the left deputy is the censor. Being able to reach this position at such an age is not something that ordinary people can achieve."
Shen Yanchuan picked up a chess piece, stared at the chessboard for a moment, and slowly placed the pieces.
This was expected and he was not surprised.
"Indeed." He nodded lightly, "Without a family background and without outside help, it is indeed rare to be able to win this position."
Xie Anbai glanced at him in surprise: "It's really rare that you actually take the initiative to praise others? I remember that you don't know this person very well? Why are you starting to care about these things now?"
Shen Yanchuan's thin lips lifted slightly, revealing a faint smile.
"Since you have decided to go back, you should learn more about it and be prepared."
…
The case of the Cao family and his son was quickly decided, and they were all beheaded.
In addition, Liu Yiyi has done a lot of shameful things in the past few years in the name of Yang Zhen, and has been reduced to a lowly status and exiled to Western Xinjiang.
Everyone knows what this means. It is almost impossible for a pretty woman to survive.
Yang Zhen was also implicated, deprived of his official position, and detained for review.
In short, overnight, everything I had dreamed about disappeared.
For several days, people in the streets of Jiangling were discussing these topics enthusiastically.
One sunny morning, a carriage left the door of Ye's Medical Center and left the city through the west gate.
Aunt Yang was the first to notice this abnormality.
"Eh? Doctor Ye, where's the one in your family?"
Aunt Yang looked into the yard and couldn't help but ask.
Ye Chutang naturally knew who she was talking about and said, "Mr. Shen has recovered from his injury and has left."
"Ah? Are you just leaving like that?" Aunt Yang showed a bit of pity on her face.
Although Mr. Shen is not in good health, he really has no choice about his face. Even if he just stays here and takes a look at it every day, it is still good!
"Originally, I said that I would make peace with you later! I think Xiao Wu seems to be quite close to him? If you really don't want to get married, Doctor Ye, why don't you find him a companion?"
Aunt Yang looked melancholy: "But why did you leave so soon? What a pity!"
Ye Chutang: "..."
It's really unexpected that Aunt Yang is still thinking about this matter after all this time.
"Don't worry about me. I will leave with Ayan, Afeng and Xiaowu tomorrow." Ye Chutang said, taking some medicines prepared in advance, "Here are the medicines I brewed with my own recipe. If you have a headache or fever, just use it."
Aunt Yang opened her eyes wide and asked in disbelief: "What? You guys are leaving too!?"
"Yes." Ye Chutang smiled, "I happened to contact a distant relative a few days ago."
Aunt Yang understood instantly. She was excited and sad at the same time, and her eyes couldn't help but turn red.
Her lips moved a few times, as if she had a lot to say, but in the end she just patted Ye Chutang's hand.
"Okay! Okay! With someone taking care of you, you don't have to work so hard anymore, right?"
She really felt sorry for Ye Chutang, so now that she heard that they were leaving, although she was reluctant to leave, she was more happy for them.
"Then, wait a minute! I'll get you something to eat while you're on the way -"
Just as she was about to stand up, Ye Chutang persuaded her: "You don't have to work anymore. Ah Feng and the others have packed up everything. We'll leave early tomorrow morning and say goodbye to you today."
Ye Chutang's lips were slightly curved, and his eyes were sincere: "Thank you for taking care of me these past few years."
There seemed to be something surging in Aunt Yang's chest, but when the words came to her lips, she couldn't say anything. In the end, she just choked and said: "Thank you for nothing! It's me who should thank you! This courtyard is still there. If I live there, If you are not happy, just bring Xiaowu and the others back at any time!"
Ye Chutang bent his eyes.
"good."
…
The next day, as soon as a touch of fish belly white appeared on the horizon, Ye Chutang got up.
She took the half-asleep Xiao Wu out of the bed. Xiao Wu was drowsily asleep. He stretched out his two small arms to wrap around Ye Chutang's neck and nuzzled her in her arms.
The carriage was parked outside the door, Ye Jingyan stood aside, and Ye Yunfeng was in front, responsible for driving.
They didn't bring much. The collection of books had been burned cleanly the day before under Ye Chutang's instructions. They only brought a change of clothes and gold and silver, so they traveled lightly.
Ye Chutang carried Xiao Wu to the carriage, and Ye Jingyan helped open the curtain.
However, as soon as Ye Chutang stepped onto the carriage, Xiao Wu in her arms suddenly moved. Her little hands involuntarily hugged Ye Chutang tightly, and she closed her eyes tightly and buried herself in Ye Chutang's arms.
Her little body was trembling very slightly.
Ye Chutang lowered his eyes slightly, hugged her tighter, and patted her small breasts gently.
"Don't be afraid, Xiaowu."
She said softly,
"Go home with sister."
