Forced to be a concubine, I went to my husband's place to become a wealthy merchant

Chapter 125

Wei Jue naturally would not stop her. Looking at Ye Xi, who was thin but in good spirits, he not only felt that she was full of vitality, but also that when she begged him to do something, it was as if she was acting coquettishly with him. Wei Jue was very happy and promised her that she could see his brother that day.

Ye Xi washed and dressed carefully, and waited anxiously in the room.

"Miss, please sit and wait. Walking around might tire you out." The new maid, named Xia Mu, advised.

"No, I'm not tired. You just do your thing and don't worry about me." Ye Xi said.

Not long after, Xue Jiu came to report that the person had arrived. Ye Xi was so happy when he heard it that he almost jumped up.

When I arrived at the reception room, I almost couldn't hold back my tears when I saw Ye Xin. I had just returned from Hangzhou City not long ago, but it felt like a lifetime ago.

"Brother." Ye Xi called weakly. She felt a little guilty and worried that Ye Xin would come up and scold her.

"Sister." Ye Xin finally saw someone. He was about to say something when he saw Xue Jiu and the maid behind Ye Xi, so he stopped.

Ye Xi saw Ye Xin's expression and knew what he was worried about, so she turned to Xue Jiu and said, "I want to talk to my brother alone. Guard Xue, can you please leave?"

Xue Jiu glanced at Ye Xin and thought that since he was Miss Ye's brother, the two of them would not do anything out of line.

Besides, the adults didn't tell him that he had to be there all the time, so he nodded and asked Xia Mu to leave with him.

After everyone left, Ye Xi went to close the door first, then came back and asked, "Brother, is Pei Zhu okay? How is he in Hangzhou City?"

Ye Xin didn't expect that the person Ye Xi asked was Pei Zhu.

He stared at Ye Xi's anxious expression and pondered for a long time, then said, "If you care about him so much, why do you want to divorce?"

Ye Xi was also stunned, and then she realized that her behavior was inappropriate. She coughed lightly and said, "Brother, you are wrong. We are husband and wife, so even if we are separated, we can still say hello to each other."

"You can say hello, but it's unusual to say hello at this critical moment."

Ye Xi understood what Ye Xin meant. He simply felt that she paid too much attention to Pei Zhu.

Ye Xi knew that he had revealed his secret by doing this, so he remained silent.

"He is doing well. As soon as he returned to Hangzhou, he went to the Ye family to explain your situation. He also specifically asked the Ye family to mention that he was safe and sound when they wrote to you.

You don't know that even though you explained everything in the letter, your parents still scolded Pei Zhu, thinking that he was not nice to you.

Pei Zhu's reaction was also strange. He allowed his parents to beat and scold him, but not only did he not talk back, he also took all the responsibility on himself. I mean, what on earth are you guys doing? "

Ye Xi didn't expect that Pei Zhu was still scolded by his parents. He felt upset for a moment and his face naturally drooped.

Ye Xin saw it all and didn't understand why it came to this when these two people clearly had feelings for each other?

"Sister, are the words in your letter true? Did you climb up the social ladder, despise Pei Zhu, and let him divorce you?"

Ye Xin didn't quite believe that his sister was such a person.

"...Brother, please don't ask me. Are my parents very angry?"

Ye Xi didn't dare to tell Ye Xin the truth. She just wanted to know if everything was fine with her family. She would feel at ease if everything was fine at home.

"Of course I'm angry. Do you think divorce is a joke? If you're getting a divorce to marry someone else as your legal wife, that's fine.

Judging from the rank of that gentleman, he probably looks down on people like us from a small family. What do you want from being a concubine?

Do you know that a concubine can be sold out by the mistress at will?"

Ye Xin took a step forward and said with a look of disappointment.
