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

Chapter 235

Ye Xi froze after taking just two steps out of the main room.

A child appeared in front of her, running in front, and a young woman was chasing behind.

The child accidentally bumped into her, looked up at Ye Xi with his two bright black eyes, and asked in a baby voice, "Who are you?"

Ye Xi heard the sound of her own heart breaking. After not seeing her for a year, Wei Ye didn't even recognize her.

Who is she? How should she answer? Is she your mother? Who is the young woman holding him in her arms from behind?

She remained frozen and did not answer.

"Yer Wurong, I hope I didn't hurt you?" the young woman asked politely.

"How dare you not respond when the Crown Prince's wife speaks to you."

The maid next to her scolded Ye Xi when she saw that he had no reaction at all.

"Okay, Lihua, how can you be so reckless? It's my fault for not taking good care of you. I hope you won't blame me."

The young woman first blamed the maid beside her, and then apologized to her.

"Nothing." Ye Xi stared at the young woman.

Knowing that she was Yao Yushu, such a gentle woman, Wei Jue felt so lucky.

She turned her gaze back to Wei Ye, looked at his puzzled eyes, and suddenly felt relieved.

Yao Yushu seemed to be nice to him, and Ye'er seemed to have forgotten that she had a mother like him. Everything was fine.

She returned to the side yard as if her soul had drifted away.

These days, because her yard was some distance away from Yao Yushu's yard, she didn't know that Yao Yushu and Wei Ye were also there.

Now, after a year, she saw her child again, fulfilling her wish and killing her obsession.

From then on, she was just Ye Xi.

After Ye Xi returned to the side courtyard, she became silent. Xia Mu and Dong Ju both thought that she had been scolded by the Duke.

Because I didn't know what I was scolded for, I didn't know what words to say to comfort him, so I could only stand by quietly.

After nightfall, they had their meal as usual.

The meals in this courtyard these days are very simple, and the key is to be easy to cook and fill the stomach.

The guards had to ensure that cooking produced as little smoke as possible to attract attention, and everyone in the yard was waiting for news that they could return to the city safely.

"Madam, madam, wake up, wake up."

Ye Xi was pushed awake all of a sudden.

Dongju was alert, she seemed to hear some unusual sounds.

Just as he pushed Ye Xi awake, before he could wake up Xia Mu, he heard the sound of weapons clashing from the main courtyard, followed by the shouting of the guards and the roar of the traitor.

"How to do how to do?"

Xia Mu, who was awakened by the fright, was stunned for a moment before he realized what had happened.

Ye Xi had already reacted: "Are they chasing us?"

Dongju nodded, "Madam, hurry up, let's evacuate from the back door. Their minds should be on the main courtyard."

Dongju pulled Ye Xi, but found that the other party didn't move. She turned around and looked over in confusion.

"No, Ye...the children are innocent, we can't just leave them alone."

Ye Xi almost let the cat out of the bag. How could she just leave Wei Ye and walk away?

"Madam, the guards around the Duke and the Crown Prince's wife are all top-notch experts.

Besides, the Duke also has martial arts skills, so it will be no problem for them to escape.

Dongju is the only one by the lady’s side. If we are caught, no one will save us.

Even if the Duke is arrested, he will be fine. After all, he is in a high position and has great power, so he is more valuable in negotiations."

Dong Ju persuaded her, she knew her words were extremely rebellious, but her mission was only to protect Ye Xi.

"But, but." Ye Xi was still worried. Swords and knives have no eyes, and what if the child was hurt?
