Chapter 345: Doubts
Sitting in the carriage, Ye Jiayao looked at the jar thoughtfully.
Drinking every day … It was supposed that she can’t drink when she were pregnant!Cuiyan didn’t understand this common sense? Or, what was the problem here?
Qiao Xi also stared at the jar: ” The second lady, you don’t really want to give this wine to Cuiyan, do you?”
Ye Jiayao was deep in thought. Indeed, about the children in Cuiyan’s belly, everyone just listened to Cuiyan, but Cuiyan came to Marquis House to make trouble and rolled around,was she like a pregnant woman? Cuiyan should know clearly that the child was her biggest reliance and she must be careful to protect the child. Well, it needed to be checked.
Qiao Xi didn’t say anything when she saw that the second lady didn’t respond.
After entering the palace, Ye Jiayao went to the Chaoyang temple to ask the Queen what she want to eat today.
The Queen was talking to several concubines, so she just let Wanru send a message that just did it casually. Now she didn’t pay attention to this. The Emperor would have dinner at Zichen Palace at noon.
What Ye Jiayao most disliked to hear was the word ” casually”. The person who said it may want to save trouble, but the person who did it would not save trouble and would have to consider it again.
It seemed that it was better to write a vegetarian menu and let the Queen order her own meal.
When they came to the Imperial kitchen, everyone knew Ye Jiayao well and greeted her warmly. Everyone helped her forwordly when she needed help.There was no need for the Imperial Chief kitchen to arrange.
The kitchen was a place where people had the right to speak by cooking. Those who was good at cooking and could be appreciated by their masters were the boss. Although Ye Jiayao only called the name of the Imperial kitchen and seldom came to cook in the Imperial kitchen, she was only for the Emperor and Queen. Only special chefs like Lu Yiming could enjoy such a privilege. Others could hardly even won the qualification of helping chefs.
In addition to Ye Jiayao’s status as the second lady in Jing ‘an Marquis House, and she didn’t like to put on airs and was polite to everyone, everyone naturally regarded her with respect and ingratiated. Even if these were both not , at least they didn’t want to offend Ye Jiayao. This made Ye Jiayao’s work went smoothly.
This was just the begining, Lu Yiming came again: ” Shopkeeper Ye, can I discuss a matter with you?”
Ye Jiayao said with a good temper, ” Shopkeeper Lu is welcome. What can I do for you?”
Lu Yiming was some embarrassed and stammered, ” Well, can I learn your vegetarian diet? Er … you don’t get me wrong. I’m just afraid that after a while, when you leave, the Emperor and Queen want to eat the dishes you made and are embarrassed to send you to the palace and ask me to do them at that time, but what will I do?”
Lu Yiming explained eagerly that each line had its own rules. If you wanted to learn from someone’s good skills, you must ask for their consent. Stealing techniques was despicable. If Shopkeeper Ye refused, he couldn’t do anything.
” Don’t worry, I won’t pass it on to the second people before get your consent, including my son. I promise that these dishes will not appear anywhere except in the Imperial kitchen, and I promise to honor the reputation of the Vegetarian Imperial kitchen for a hundred years.” Lu Yiming solemnly said.
Lu Yiming’s character, Ye Jiayao was trustworthy. Moreover, she was not a stingy person. Besides, Lu Yiming’s concerns also made sense. She was only responsible for the Emperor’s and Queen’s diet during the mourning period. After this, she would certainly not come after that time again, and the Emperor was embarrassed to open this mouth.
Ye Jiayao frankly said, ” No problem, I can’t believe others, but you chef Lu can’t be believed?”
Lu Yiming was overjoyed. He didn’t expect Shopkeeper Ye was so frankly. He gave a salute by holding his hands: ” So, thank you, Shopkeeper Ye.”
Lu Yiming simply laid hands on Ye Jiayao. When other cooks saw him, they couldn’t help shaking off their chin. What was this? The first chef in the Imperial kitchen actually laid hands on the Shopkeeper Ye?
Two people teaching while doing and learned while remembering, regardless of the surprised eyes of others.
After lunch, Ye Jiayao still couldn’t leave. The task would not be completed until the Emperor and Queen ran out of food. Otherwise, they would ask for extra food, or they would not be satisfied with which dish, or they would still want to find her.
On this occasion, Ye Jiayao sat in the small courtyard of the Imperial kitchen and took out the account given by Manager Zhao yesterday.
There was nothing wrong with the accounts. The sum of each was very clear. The total was quite considerable. However, the understrapper had more money, indicating that she made more money. Ye Jiayao was not the one who only couldn’t get into and stingy. She liked mutual benefit , and everyone was happy and generated money. She made an instruction on it and turned it over to Manager Zhao .
After waiting for less than half an hour, the Imperial kitchen attendant came back from where he had taken lunch, indicating that the Emperor and Queen had finished eating, and Ye Jiayao got up and went out of the palace.
She was still thinking about Cuiyan and went back to ask her big brother first.
When she got home, Manager Zhao talked back and forth in advance, saying that all the people had already been sent away and all the valuables in the house had been sealed up. He asked if he would send someone to bring them back to the first lady.
Ye Jiayao nodded, and naturally these things were to be handed over to You.
” You’d better take Mother Fang with you,” said Ye Jiayao, let You’s own people follow and check, so as to avoid any blame on her.
” Yes.” Manager Zhao took orders to step down, and Ye Jiayao sent for the first gentleman.
Chunli was also thinking about the house outside and soon came.
Ye Jiayao sent out all the irrelevant people so that they could talk easily.
” Big brother, I have something to ask you.”
Chunli was honest like a rabbit. Last night, he felt guilty and overwhelmed. Under the impulse, promise had gone out and the deed of house was handed over. In the middle of the night, he thought of regretting it, but it was too late. Besides, his big brother-in-law was still there, he always stared at him with a squint. If Chunli was dishonest, he would not mind beating him up again. He dared not put his fart and honestly acted with his tail in his hand.
” The second sister-in-low, just ask.”
” Cuiyan said she is pregnant, have you asked the doctor to confirm?”
Chunli shook his head: ” I didn’t know about this until your big sister-in-law came to make trouble that day. Cuiyan said she had already seen a doctor and wanted to find a suitable opportunity to tell me and gave me a surprise.”
Ye Jiayao had a dispute in her heart. It seemed to be just a word of Cuiyan. Maybe Cuiyan wanted to use it as an excuse for fear that Chunli would dump her and not want her. This was a common trick used by thirdside person in an affair.
” How long did she say she was pregnant and when did her catamenia come?” Ye Jiayao continued to understand the situation.
Dregs blushed and hesitated:” She said it was almost two months ago. As for the catamenia, I don’t remember it clearly. Who remembers it?”
Well, it seemed that Chunli was not only a dregs but also confused. Now Ye Jiayao had not got any real evidence and couldn’t say anything. Let’s wait until the truth was revealed.
” Well, there’s nothing else. Big brother can go back.” All the questions should be asked. Ye Jiayao ended the conversation.
But what Chunli wanted to know hadn’t been asked yet!
” The second sister-in-low, outside the house …”
There were still many valuable things there. He wanted to put them away, but his big brother-in-law stared at him. He couldn’t walk away and didn’t know how Ye Jiayao solved them.
Ye Jiayao knew what his idea was when she looked at his expression.
” Well, everyone has already been sent away. All of them came from other places. They have been placed properly and will not have worries. As for the things in the house, the big sister-in-law has already sent someone to check them out.” Ye Jiayao said bluntly, disillusioning Chunli.
Chunli’s face as white as ashes, his mouth twitched and he wanted to cry bitterly. This was really nothing.
Ye Jiayao smiled and comforted: ” Husband and wife, yours is the big sister – in – law’s, the big sister – in – law’s is youes, and not all of them will be your son’s in the future?”
The thought of his son made Chunli a little better and left dejectedly.
As soon as Chunli left, Ye Jiayao immediately asked Xiangtao to invite the doctor from Renhe Hospital. Then she took the doctor and Lin Kun’s family to the small yard where she had lived with Auntie Jiang before.
Manager Zhao had placed Cuiyan here.
Ye Jiayao and the doctor were waiting in the hall, while Lin Kun’s family brought Cuiyan.
Cuiyan’s hands were tied, her mouth was blocked by a handkerchief, and her long hair startled the doctor of Renhe Hospital.
” The second lady, this is …”
Ye Jiayao downplayed: ” A girl who doesn’t know what’s wrong with her recently has also make the first lady angry. Today let you to come over to see what’s wrong with her.”
The doctor knew that it was this woman who caused Marquis House’s the first lady had a premature abortion yesterday . As for the specific situation, he was just a doctor and was not interested in asking. Some things didn’t have to be said so clearly in the big house.
When Cuiyan heard that he was a doctor, she forgot to struggle, and the color in her face immediately faded and she looked at the second lady in horror.
Ye Jiayao scoffed softly: ” Didn’t you say you were not feeling well? Let the doctor have a look!”
Cuiyan just reacted, struggling harder, her mouth blocked, her throat meowed and refused, she would rather die than let the doctor see her .
Ye Jiayao sneer at the bottom of her heart, confirming her speculation.
” Lin Kun’s family, let her be quiet,” Ye Jiayao ordered with a heavy voice.
Lin Kun’s family winked at the two people who carrying Cuiyan, and the two men added strength to press Cuiyan to sit down.
But Cuiyan struggled desperately. In a critical situation, she was surprisingly strong and both men couldn’t press her.
With a sigh, the doctor took out a silver needle and walked over to Cuiyan: ” come on!”
At that point, a shot went down the neck behind Cuiyan, and Cuiyan immediately softened and fainted.
Ye Jiayao was dumbfounded: ” Doctor … is she all right?”
The doctor said calmly, ” That’s all right. I just pricked her lethargy cave and kept her quiet for a while. She will wake up in less than half an hour.”
Ye Jiayao thought: The acupuncture of traditional Chinese medicine was really amazing. A thin silver needle could be of such great use.
Two people carried Cuiyan to the chair and untied the rope.
The doctor came forward, grasped Cuiyan’s hand and examined the pulse carefully.
Ye Jiayao looked at the doctor nervously and hoped her guess was correct. That would be much easier. Otherwise, Qiao would have to kill the child in Cuiyan’s belly, and she really couldn’t help it. She might still make You unhappy, after all, it was Xia’s blood. Mother could deny it and bone blood must be recognized. This was the attitude of many elders to deal with such things.
