Chapter 458: I am the Law
ife up! She is the mistress of this General's manor, your rightful wife. Think carefully about what you want, and live well with your wife!" 。Only when husband and wife are united can they withstand e...Ye Wen said he wanted to perform a tea ceremony Ye Lianmian doubted if he had heard correctly.
Perhaps she didn't know this, but Ye Wenyan was quite skilled at these meticulous tasks. She had a good grasp of his abilities in her heart.
As for what the New Year's Eve palace banquet compared to dancing, anyway, she didn't go to the New Year's Eve palace banquet. Who knows if it's true or not Perhaps Ye Wenyan just said it out of thin air. Now he says he's going to perform a tea ceremony, is this man crazy
Ye Lianmian laughed, "Alright then, you give us a taste and let us broaden our horizons. I wonder what you can conjure up in the tea. Just don't end up splashing tea leaves everywhere, that could be deadly."
Ye Wenyan raised her lips, "The water used to separate tea is already powdered tea leaves, then mixed with water into a paste. Sister-in-law Two, how little do you understand about separating tea"
Ye Lianmian clenched his fist, "Stop talking nonsense, show us a share."
Ye Wen smiled and reached out to ask the servant for tea. Soon a cup of tea was brought before her. She picked it up, opened the lid to take a look, then asked Ye Wushuang: "How do you shake it Do you cover the lid and shake gently Is there a specific order to shaking it up, down, left or right"
As soon as she said that, Ye Lianmian almost laughed out loud. “Ye Wenyan, are you capable You don't know anything and dare to boast about knowing how to brew tea Your face is so big!”
Ye Wen didn't want to pay attention to her, only speaking with Ye Wushuang, "Is there a sequence I just saw you sway, it seems like there was a rhythm, going up and down. If I just swayed randomly, I don't think it would work, right"
Ye Wushuang nodded patiently and said to her, “There is indeed a sequence. However, Miss Four, do you also want to conjure up the scenery in front of our house Each scene uses different techniques, and I don't know where to start.”
Ye Wushuang's face showed embarrassment, and Ye Lianmian seized the opportunity to say again, "Wushuang, don't teach her. Listening to her brag about herself like that, I thought she was really amazing. Who knew it was just putting on a show"
Ye Wu Shuang hurriedly said, "It's not that I won't teach you, it's just that I really can't teach well."
"It's nothing." Ye Wenyan smiled at her, "Then I'll just wander around, see what I find!"
She was just wandering around randomly, and then she took a teacup in her hand. She held the bottom of the cup with one hand and pressed down on the lid with the other. She shook it back and forth, up and down, left and right, like a fortune teller performing a ritual. And strangely enough, she mumbled to herself: "I want to conjure up a meaningful picture, something that will make everyone remember it, something unforgettable. All you gods and goddesses, come help me! I'm about to open the lid!"
He went straight to it. As people watched, Ye Wenyan's trembling hand stopped, lifted directly from the lid of the bowl, and with a lift, the lid was opened, revealing its contents to all.
Everyone crowded forward to have a look, even Nightscape couldn't help but inch closer out of curiosity.
This tea painting was a stunning illusion. People gasped in amazement, and Ye Qingmei blurted out, “Isn’t this the likeness of our grandfather and grandmother It's so realistic; you can tell at first glance!”
Ye Chu Lian sighed: "I heard that creating illusionary humans through tea leaves is the most difficult, more so than landscapes. Even skilled masters who can conjure a human form usually only produce an outline without eyebrows or eyes. But Fourth Sister actually managed to create both eyebrows and eyes! This incredible skill is unmatched throughout the heavens and earth. Look, Grandfather seems to be smiling. Is he amused"
Upon hearing this, people looked closely again. Sure enough, the stern-faced General Ye Lao had a slight smile on his face now. He was both majestic and kind, instantly bringing people back to the days when the general was still alive.
Ye Qingmei wiped her eyes with a handkerchief, saying through choked sobs: "Back when our grandfather was alive, he would always bring us gifts whenever he returned to Kyoto. He'd buy things along the way, gathering treasures from every corner of Bei Qi. All of our children had seen them."
"Yes! Although Grandfather and Father don't come back to the capital often, they truly miss us. We have such good lives now all because of our two generals who fought bravely on the battlefield. We are a family that stands tall thanks to the blood of our ancestors. Even if we can't produce any more generals in the future, we must live with honor and integrity, never tarnishing the reputation of our forefathers."
Night Fei Zhou also said to Ye Wu Shuang, "Come and see Grandfather too! Pay your respects to him, it's like acknowledging him."
Ye Wenyan withdrew his hand holding the tea, saying lightly, "No need."
Then she got up and walked step by step towards the old lady, offering her the tea with the figure in it, "Grandmother, take a look at what I conjured. Do you think it looks like me Judge my tea-making skills too. Also, if Grandmother likes this painting, I'll find an artist to paint it for you and frame it properly. Hang it in your room as a keepsake. I've never seen any paintings of Grandfather and Grandmother together in the mansion. It must be because Grandfather was always away, and there wasn't much opportunity to paint one. This time, we fulfilled both of your lifelong wishes. Consider it a gift from your granddaughter!"
Old Madam Ye's head buzzed. The two figures in the teacup were as lifelike as if they were about to walk out. Looking at her own image and Night Zhenwei's side by side, she felt like she had died too, both of them painted into a posthumous portrait, eerie indeed.
At the thought of this, she immediately reached out to push the teapot away, and loudly exclaimed: "Take it away quickly! This old woman doesn't want this thing!"
Ye Wen looked at her grandmother in surprise, "How could Grandma react like this Shouldn't she be happy Shouldn't she, just like us, reminisce about the past and shed a few tears This is how one should treat the deceased, especially since he was your husband. You two weren't deeply in love for all those years Grandma looks so frightened, did you perhaps do something to upset Grandpa Tell me."
"I won't say! There's nothing to say!" The old madam shouted, "Quickly take it away, this is sorcery, I won't look!"
“How could it be demonic sorcery” Ye Wen sighed softly, retreating to Ye Wushuang’s side, “Third sister, look, grandmother said our tea-making skills are demonic sorcery. You just entered the family today, this is really not a good thing to say. Second Uncle, what do you think”
The old lady was still clamoring: "I only said that you were using sorcery, I never said it wasn't peerless!"
“But we were both doing the same thing, dividing tea. If it’s a competition, it's a tea fight, not sorcery.” Ye Wenyan sat back down and looked at Ye Jing. “Second Uncle, you should stop Grandmother quickly. She can't keep making a fuss on this joyous occasion. It’ll bring bad luck to the new mistress and new miss.”
"The night view is truly enraged. 'You know it's a day of great joy On a day of great joy, you conjure up death in the tea'"
"What do you call someone who's dead" Yè Wēn Yán's voice immediately turned cold. "You call him father, as long as you still live in this mansion, he is your father. Why is your second uncle so disrespectful to his own father"
"Great joy today!" Ye Xing roared, "To encounter death on a day of great joy is inauspicious!"
“Then get out of here and go to the Grand Celebration Hall!” Ye Wenyan suddenly roared, shaking the four walls of this Xuming Hall. She stared intently at Ye Jingsheng, although she was looking up, and although she appeared quite petite, her aura was not inferior at all. People heard her say word by word, “Ye Jingsheng, listen to me! Everyone in this room should also listen to me. This first-class General’s Mansion was built with the skulls and blood of my Ye family ancestors, a legacy of glory passed down through generations, allowing our descendants to enjoy life here and multiply. It will never be occupied by some people who scheme behind the scenes, turning this illustrious mansion into a den of iniquity. In this generation, my grandfather is the only master of this General’s Mansion. Even though he is gone, he is still the only master. Whoever dares to disrespect the head of the household, I, your aunt, will slap him to death right now, without mercy!”
She walked forward two steps while she spoke, forcing Ye Xing by the wall. “What do you want”
"I want to shove your words back into your mouth, I'm even considering if I should dirty my own hands." Yè Wēn yán made a gesture of covering her mouth towards him. "Just like that, shoving the spoken words back into your mouth and swallowing them, then this matter would be over."
The night view is starting to make me sweat, how do I even begin How can I stuff words when they aren't tangible things
Looking back at Ye Wen's behind, the maid named Zhuai didn't know where she got paper and pen, seeming to want to write herself. However, as she found out she couldn't write, she handed the paper and pen to Ye Qingmei. She whispered a few words to Ye Qingmei, and then Ye Qingmei picked up the pen and wrote on the paper. It was done soon, and the paper was stood upright. He only realized now that it was the two sentences he had just said: “On your wedding day, are you conjuring up corpses in the tea water” And another one: “A death on a joyous occasion is an ill omen!”
Zhuier showed the paper around to everyone, then walked in a group to Ye Wenyan's side and said: "Let me do it, so I won't dirty Miss's hands."
Ye Wen nodded, "Okay, you come. Stuff it in hard, all the way into his belly. If he doesn't swallow, just find a stick and shove it in for me. Don't worry about doing things right, if he dies, it's on me."
Zhu'er loved doing this the most, even though she didn't know the true origins of Ye Jing's splendor or what the old Madam Ye had done in the past. But that didn't stop her from tormenting the Second House, nor did it affect her hatred for them.
Because the second room was given a dowry of red makeup on her wedding night, and her marriage to Ye Wen was announced that night, this alone was enough for her to hate the second room from the bottom of her heart.
Then she stepped forward, held the paper ball high in her hand, and brought it all the way to Ye Ningsheng's mouth, "Second Master, open wide!"
This whole commotion scared both Chang Xueqiao and Ye Wushuang. Even though they had made ample preparations for returning to live at the General's Mansion, they never expected things to get this out of hand.
How dare a maidservant defy the master of the house! Is there no law and order left in this family!
I don't know if her psychological activities were too obvious on her face, but anyway, Ye Wenyan glanced at her and immediately said: "Of course this family has rules, but I am the king, my words are the law!"
>. So I shouldn't hurt this girl any further, she deserves to find someone better, someone who will love only her for their entire life. 。He arrived here and never left, silently flipping through a le...
