Ye Yunfeng's face turned cold instantly: "Xiao Wu is not mute!"
Being spoken back to by a twelve-year-old boy in front of his servants made Mr. Gao very upset.
"That's what I said. She is a child and doesn't understand. Besides, she looks like she can't speak!"
Whose child doesn't know how to call someone at the age of four?
There is clearly something wrong with this Ye Lingzhi, why aren't you allowed to talk about it?
Ye Chutang's expression became a little lighter, and there was no emotion in his eyes: "Second Aunt, although Xiao Wu is young, she can still understand these words. Even though her parents are not here now, she is still the most loved one in our family. My son, there is absolutely no reason for anyone to bully her in this Ye Mansion. You are the elder, and we don’t ask you to treat Xiao Wu like your own daughter, but we also ask you to be virtuous."
Gao's face turned red and white.
What's going on with these people? Both of them are very eloquent!
She was about to have a fit when she caught a glimpse of Ye Heng's disapproving look from the corner of her eye. She swallowed the breath again and forced a smile: "Chu Tang, you really misunderstood Second Aunt. Aren't I doing this for Xiao Wu's sake? If there is really something wrong with her, she needs to ask a doctor to take a look!"
Xiao Wu grabbed Ye Chutang's hand and felt a little unhappy.
Looking for a doctor? Sister is the most powerful doctor in the world, why would you hire someone else?
Ye Chutang squeezed her little hand soothingly, and then said quietly to Mrs. Gao: "Thank you, Second Aunt, for your kindness, but we know Xiao Wu's condition well and there is no need to call in a doctor."
"How can this be done? It was delayed when we turned around, and when others saw her, they said it was your second uncle who didn't try his best." Gao's face showed a bit of arrogance, "Besides, the doctors in the capital are not those who are not good enough. The charlatans on the stage can compare with me. I’ll ask your second uncle to ask an imperial doctor from Tai Hospital to come over, maybe he can find a solution!”
Ye Heng also nodded in agreement upon hearing this: "That's right. It just so happens that Doctor Zhang will come to the house tomorrow, so I can ask him to take a look."
Ye Chutang was a little impatient.
It would be okay if they asked Chu Qi to come over. At least he was the dean of Taiyuan Hospital, and he was somewhat capable.
But inviting a loser who relied on Zu Yin to sneak into Taiyuan Hospital is not enough to waste time.
But she was too lazy to waste words. Ye Heng was eager to show off, so let him show off.
"Okay. Then I'll thank my second uncle first."
Ye Chutang bowed politely and took a few people to sit down.
Ye Shixian glanced at Xiao Wu a few times and asked proactively: "How about asking Nanny Li to wait on Xiao Wu for dinner?"
Ye Chutang served Xiao Wu some food and smiled lightly: "That's not necessary. She does her own thing very well."
Ye Shixian looked at it for a while and found that although Xiao Wu couldn't speak, he really didn't need anyone to take care of him for things like eating and drinking.
Also, having been living outside since childhood, it is probably good to have enough to eat. How can he compare with the noble children raised by aristocratic families in the capital.
Thinking of this, she felt a bit of disdain and contempt in her heart.
A meal with various thoughts was finally finished.
Ye Heng thought about it for most of the night, and finally decided to ask.
"Chu Tang, you came back suddenly yesterday. I thought you were tired from the journey, so I didn't ask too many questions. But now, can you tell me how you got here in the past three years?"
He sighed: "After the accident happened to my eldest brother and sister-in-law, I searched for you for a long time, but unfortunately I found nothing. You guys have suffered a lot in the past few years, right?"
He couldn't figure out how Ye Chutang, a fourteen-year-old girl with three younger siblings, survived?
Ye Shixian also looked towards Ye Chutang.
Ye Chutang's tone was calm.
"By chance, we met an old doctor on the way to escape. He didn't have much time left and was worried that he would have no heirs, so he taught me some simple medical principles." Ye Chutang said without changing his expression, "Later, when he passed away, I took him with me. With Ayan and the others, they found a place to stay and opened a small medical clinic. They make a living by collecting herbs and treating people on weekdays."
"Wha, what?" Ye Heng was shocked, "You mean you opened a medical clinic?!"
Ye Chutang knew why he was so shocked. Although today's dynasty is enlightened, it is still rare for women to start their own business.
Ye Shixian was also full of surprise, and looked at Ye Chutang with a different look.
——After all, she is also a noble lady from an official family. How can she lower her status like this?
She pressed the corner of her lips with a handkerchief and lowered her eyes to hide the mocking smile in her eyes.
When she met Ye Chutang for the first time yesterday, she felt a faint sense of crisis in her heart, but after hearing this, she felt that her worries were unnecessary.
A woman who had been in the public eye and worked hard to make a living was no longer qualified to be compared with her.
Ye Chutang didn't care about their attitudes and just said softly: "I feel ashamed to say it. As a sister, I failed to provide better conditions for A Yan and A Feng. I could only provide them with the cheapest academy. In the past few years, I couldn't provide them with better conditions. It’s really wronging them.”
Ye Jingyan's eyebrows moved slightly: "Sister--"
Ye Yunfeng scratched his head and felt guilty: "Sister, why should you blame yourself! It's me who caused you a lot of trouble!"
Ye Chutang turned his head slightly to look at the two of them, and whispered softly: "My parents and brother are not here. I am the sister, so I naturally have to take this responsibility. It also lets people know that the children of our Ye family are not unprotected." It’s alive.”
When Ye Heng heard this, he finally couldn't sit still.
"Chu Tang, speaking of this, I was about to discuss this with you. A Yan and A Feng are now in the grade they should be studying in. In the past, you were living outside, so I didn't know. But now that you have returned to the capital, then As my second uncle, it is my duty to do so!"
He said: "I have already started to help Ayan and Afeng contact suitable colleges. After everything at home settles down in a few days, I can send them to study!"
Ye Chutang raised his eyes slightly, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
"The arrangement arranged by the second uncle is naturally the best. Before, I was worried that Mingze was in the Imperial College and A Yan and A Feng would have conflicts again. It is better that the second uncle thought about it properly. In this way, all three of them will I can continue to study with peace of mind.”
Ye Heng's face stiffened.
Only then did he realize that he had sent his son to the Imperial Academy, and now that his two nephews were back, if they were sent to other academies by him, and outsiders found out, he didn't know how unpleasant they would be!
He hurriedly said: "I was not thinking carefully before, but now that I think about it, it would be better to let the three brothers go together! The Imperial Academy is a gathering of talented people, so we must go! I will also be responsible for their food and lodging, so you don't have to worry!" "
Mrs. Gao immediately became unwilling and said angrily: "Master, you have to be careful about this! After all, the Imperial College - you can't just enter it just as you say."
How much did the brothers spend in the past? Besides, this is not just about money.
She scanned Ye Jingyan, Ye Yunfeng and brothers up and down.
"Have you been wasting your studies in the past three years? Even if your second uncle can recommend you to go in, it will still be troublesome if you are not as good as others there. It is better to go to a smaller academy, at least you can keep up."
