Hou Youzui saw that Ye Jianli did not accept the apology but brought him up again, so he said,""Don't worry, Brother Ye. I, Hou Youzui, swear to the heavens today that if I, Hou Youzui, ever disrespect the people of Tianfeng City, no, the people of the world, I will cut off my descendants!”
The ancients placed great importance on oaths. It seemed like Hou Youzui was really going to change his ways. However, the content of the oath left Ye Jianli speechless. His father was still here, yet he actually made such an oath. It was truly impressive. Ye Jianli felt 'veneration' in his heart.
Looking at Hou Quan again, although the oath was a little vicious, seeing Hou Youzui's clear and resolute gaze, he let him go. After all, he was an official, so he had a keen mind, especially for an official at the level of a governor. Seeing that Ye Jianli was deliberately trying to build a good relationship with the government, with his keen mind and vision, he could naturally see the benefits involved. The Ye family's strength as the leader of the four great families in the martial arts world was needless to say. He smiled and said," Zui 'er, you must learn more from nephew Jianli in the future. You must know that nephew Jianli was almost the same as you a few years ago! Nephew Jianli, am I wrong?”
Seeing Hou Quan reveal his unofficial history, Ye Jianli's face turned red," It's all that little bastard's fault! "Your Excellency is right. I believe Brother Hou will be the same!"”
Hou Youzui only smiled and did not answer. "You youngsters have something to say, so you should communicate more in the future!" Hou Quan said. This old man is busy with official business, so I'll take my leave first!”Without waiting for Ye Jianli's reply, he walked out.
The people don't fight with the government. I'll endure it! Ye Jianli thought in his heart, but he also walked outside. Of course, it was to send the Governor off! Otherwise, there would be nothing to do after eating?
"Nephew, there's no need to send me off!" Hou Quan turned his head back and laughed. He then walked into the sedan chair and returned to the Governor's Mansion with the guards. He even carried Hou Youzui's sedan chair away. It was obvious that he wanted Hou Youzui to walk back to the mansion as a small punishment!
Poor Young Master Hou, I mourn for you. You're a delicate rich young master who has to walk for more than ten miles! Although the Young Master Hou was very pitiful, Ye Jianli was even more pitiful than him. This was because the pitiful Young Master Hou had already been tied to him by his cunning father. Ye Jianli felt extremely depressed when he thought of this matter," The damned people don't fight with the government. Looking at Hou Quan's excited look before he left, he knew that he had earned a lot of benefits! However, he had thrown the mess to him. Although he had hoped that the Tianfeng City incident would end, this method of ending was too much! He was actually kidnapped and sent to a *** person.
When he thought of ***, Ye Jianli finally remembered that when he came out earlier, Huan 'er had not come out either. Hou Youzui had not come out either. Although Hou Youzui did not have a criminal record of forcefully taking a woman, perhaps it was because he had not yet come to spring, Huan' er's looks were not bad either! If they stayed together, then…would they…? "Aiya! Oh no!" Ye Jianli slapped his head and immediately turned around to run into the house. One of the guards from the outer court said to the other guards,""When young master passed by the outer courtyard, he was like a gust of wind that had the flexibility of a willow branch as he sped into the inner courtyard…"
When they arrived at the living room, Ye Jianli was delighted to see the situation. Although Huan 'er was still standing beside the chair with her head lowered, Hou Youzui was no longer as silkpants as usual. He even felt uneasy sitting on the chair. He would take a sip of tea and then glance at Huan' er before lowering his head again. This was clearly a sign of nervousness and shyness. Huan 'er is the spring of the Hou family? No way! Ye Jianli was speechless. Due to the urgency of the situation earlier, he had used his Lightness Skill, Floating Wind Like Willow, to arrive without making a sound. Even Huan 'er, who practiced martial arts, did not notice him, let alone Hou Youzui!
Seeing Hou Youzui's expression, he knew that this fellow had fallen in love with Huan 'er. To Huan' er, marrying into the Governor's Manor was not bad, even being a concubine was fine. However, to Ye Jianli, this was impossible. Although Hou Youzui's family background was well-off and his appearance was dignified and handsome, his character was indescribable. He bullied the commoners and was arrogant and domineering…Therefore, if he wanted to marry Huan 'er's sister, he had to go through Ye Jianli first! Ye Jianli said firmly in his heart. There was no other reason than that Huan 'er was already eighteen years old this year. It must be known that in this period of time, women could marry at the age of fifteen, and at the age of eighteen, they were already looking after their husbands and raising their children. Therefore, he had to think for Huan' er, but he could not take the happiness of a girl's life as a child's play. Therefore, he wanted to test Hou Youzui. Yes, test! As for the question of this test, it was naturally about correcting the character of this rich young master!
" Cough, cough, cough." Ye Jianli's light coughs alerted the two of them. Hou Youzui looked at Ye Jianli as if he was a thief and felt very guilty. On the other hand, Huan 'er was the opposite. Seeing Ye Jianli return, she was naturally overjoyed. After all, the situation just now was too awkward. Although she had also seen Hou Youzui's little actions, for a servant girl like her, it was harder to think of the word like!
When Hou Youzui saw that Ye Jianli had returned, he panicked slightly and wanted to ask Ye Jianli to leave. Who knew that Ye Jianli would say,""Sister Huan 'er, you can go and do your work! Brother Hou and I still have many things to say!”Hou Youzui felt helpless. However, the other party did not allow him to leave, and his father wanted him to 'interact' with the other party more, so he had no choice but to stay. Sitting on the chair, he suddenly realized what it meant to be on pins and needles, just like how he was now, even though there was a thick layer of brocade cushion on the chair. Huan 'er ran out of the room as if she had been pardoned. Her tight and beautiful legs were faintly visible under her long blue dress, and Hou Youzui was momentarily stunned…
Seeing that Huan 'er had already walked far away and Hou Youzui was still staring blankly in the direction that Huan' er had left, Ye Jianli waved his hand in front of his eyes and said,""What are you looking at? He has already gone far away!"
Only then did Hou Youzui come to his senses. He stuttered,"Ye…Ye, Brother Ye, why did you call me?”
Seeing Hou Youzui's stuttering manner, Ye Jianli was both angry and amused. He was angry that Hou Youzui was actually lying through his teeth, but he was amused that such a rich young master was actually so infatuated with Huan 'er that he stuttered!
"Brother Ye, what do you think of our maid, Sister Huan 'er?”Ye Jianli smiled and asked.
Did he notice? No, it didn't make sense! Hou Youzui's thoughts raced as he said,""Not bad, the best of the maids!”
"Brother Hou, did you know? Sister Huan 'er is already eighteen years old. Other women of the same age have already taken care of their husbands and raised their children. Therefore, we are preparing to find a good family for her!”Ye Jianli said meaningfully.
"Who are you looking for?" Hou Youzui said anxiously. He did not notice the smile on Ye Jianli's face getting thicker and thicker, nor did he feel the anxiety in his words.
"Because Huan 'er has made great contributions to the Ye residence, my father and I want to find a good family for her!”
"Yes, after all, you don't have to worry about making a living in a good family! What other requests do you have?" Hou Youzui asked.
"Also, you have to have a good character. That way, it doesn't matter even if you're a concubine!”Ye Jianli said with a smile.
Character? Hou Youzui secretly clenched his fists. For the first time, he had the thought of being a good person. After all, being a good person was good! Hou Youzui took a deep breath as if he had made a decision."If someone's family is not only well-off, but is also willing to treat her as the first wife, I wonder if you will marry Huan 'er? Although his character was terrible now, he could change! And he also swore an oath!"
Ye Jianli pretended to be surprised and said,"Brother Hou, is this true?"”
"Really!"
"Who is that person?" Ye Jianli asked curiously.
"That person is my foolish brother!" Hou Youzui said with a guilty expression.”Seeing that Ye Jianli did not seem to believe him, Hou Youzui hurriedly said,""Brother Ye, everything I said is true. When I first saw Miss Huan 'er, I was shocked and enchanted by her heroic bearing. It was also at that time that I realized that the fairy I had been pursuing had finally come true! Miss Huan 'er is the companion that I want to accompany for the rest of my life!”Hou Youzui was also going all out! He also knew that Huan 'er's marriage was in the hands of Ye Cheng and Ye Jianli. If they didn't say anything, it would be useless no matter what he did. He had never seen Ye Cheng, but he could see that Ye Jianli was as doted on as he was. This was something that only those who were doted on could understand! Therefore, as long as they could get past Ye Jianli, they would be able to get past Ye City! "Brother Ye, please help me!" Hou Youzui continued. This foolish brother sincerely wants to turn over a new leaf, and also sincerely wants to marry Miss Huan 'er!”
Ye Jianli said," Let's not talk about whether or not you've truly changed. Could it be that you really won't marry anyone but Huan 'er?" Aren't you afraid that your father will be angry? One had to know that Huan 'er was a slave!”Ye Jianli's words pierced right into Hou Youzui's heart. At this moment, Hou Youzui's heart really hurt. He was about to face a dilemma. Should he choose kinship or love? Although the customs of the Jiang Kingdom were open and widows could remarry, there was no such thing as marrying a slave girl! Choosing kinship meant that he could continue to live a dandy life but lose love. Choosing love meant that he might live a life of love but lose his dandy life! Who should he choose? It might have been a quarter of an hour, or two hours, but under Ye Jianli's gaze, Hou Youzui's white clothes were drenched, and beads of sweat trickled down his forehead. His sharp eyebrows were tightly furrowed, and a painful expression overflowed on his face. After a long while, Hou Youzui let out a long sigh of relief and said leisurely,"Brother Ye, I've thought it through. Although Huan 'er is a slave, I don't mind! Could it be that people from a low background couldn't pursue a higher life?”
Ye Jianli nodded his head in agreement. He was a person from the 21st century and was already used to gender equality!
Ye Jianli was silent for a moment before he said," I've discussed it with my father. After Huan 'er turns nineteen, we'll choose a good family for her! So, Brother Hou, you still have a year! It's not that I didn't warn you! You only have one year! You will only have a chance if you change the people's opinion of you within a year! Of course, if you succeed, your chances will be even greater! In terms of status, you are the son of the governor. In terms of looks, there is no need to say anything. The only requirement is character!”
"Don't worry, I'll save it!" Hou Youzui's eyebrows danced in delight as he spoke with a high spirit.
Seeing Hou Youzui's confident look, Ye Jianli suddenly had a feeling. This silkpants could do it! Was love really that powerful? Was he really that motivated? This guy's spring had arrived, but what about mine? When will I know? Ye Jianli was looking forward to it.
Hou Youzui felt his entire body was filled with energy! There was only one thought in his mind: That was to change the people's opinion of him, the playboy! After he calmed down, he frowned again. It was easier said than done! The key was how to do it! Hou Youzui was thinking about what he should do now, but no matter how hard he racked his brains, he could not think of anything. For someone who had been born with a silver spoon in his mouth, how could he do anything to change the people's opinions when he could not even differentiate between grains?
Perhaps he really couldn't think of anything, so Hou Youzui turned his gaze to Ye Jianli and said shamelessly,""Brother Ye, this foolish brother has been thinking hard for a long time, but I still can't think of what to do to change the views of the people! Brother Ye, please give me some pointers!”
Ye Jianli rolled his eyes when he heard that and thought," A playboy like you doesn't even care about it all day, so how would you know? "If you want to change the people's views, you must first understand what the people need. Once again, he understood what the commoners could not solve!”
Hou Youzui was also a smart person, so he understood after Ye Jianli's little nudge. Now that he understood, everything was easy! Hou Youzui wanted to create a good image in time, and his enthusiasm was like the Yellow River flooding. He couldn't help but get up and leave.
Seeing Hou Youzui leave in high spirits, Huan 'er entered the room and asked,"Young Master, why is Young Master Hou so happy?”Her beautiful eyes were filled with curiosity.
"Sister Huan 'er, you came at the right time. I was just about to look for you! What do you think of this Young Master Hou? You have to tell the truth!" Ye Jianli didn't answer the question.
"What do you mean? Young Master, why are you asking this?" Huan 'er's cheeks were flushed red, and her long eyelashes fluttered in her big eyes. It was no wonder that Hou Youzui liked Huan' er.
Ye Jianli was cursing Hou Youzui in his heart for stepping on some sh * t to actually meet Huan 'er when he heard the young girl say like a mosquito,""Young Master Hou is a good person! As long as his character changed, he could be considered a perfect person!”For some reason, Huan 'er felt very comfortable.
Could he be considered a perfect person after changing his character? F * ck, such a high evaluation! Ye Jianli was speechless but he understood one thing," Huan 'er also had a good impression of Hou Youzui! However, for some reason, Huan 'er had hated Hou Youzui when he had first arrived. How could she have such a drastic change in her opinion of him in just a few hours? Could it be that that guy had such great charm? Ye Jianli rubbed his nose and couldn't figure it out! He couldn't figure it out! Strange! Were women so fickle?
……
Three months later, there was another rumor in Tianfeng City. It was that a group of " conscripts " had appeared in Tianfeng City, and they specialized in helping the commoners tidy up their homes. The person leading this group of conscripts was none other than the evil young master Hou Youzui, whom the commoners hated in the past…
