Chapter 23: Why Was He So Smart?!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Butler Wang’s gaze on Ye Qingyu immediately changed. He became much more enthusiastic and polite. He even took out half a tael of silver from his pocket and handed it to Ye Qingyu.

“Miss Ye, you are well-mannered. You felt that you had caused trouble for the Li family, so you gave us half a tael more. However, your family is also in a difficult situation. I can’t be greedy for this half a tael of silver. Take it quickly.”

“Butler Wang, you’re really righteous!”

Ye Qingyu took the half-tael of silver in surprise and said a few good words, making the smile on Butler Wang’s face become more genuine. He completely let go of what had just happened.

She tried to get close to Xu Jingnan and was full of nonsense. She wanted to play a trick to make Butler Wang stop having any thoughts of revenge on account of Xu Jingnan.

However, she did not expect Xu Jingnan to be so ‘powerful’ and even helped her get back half a tael of silver.

Xu Jingnan’s identity was definitely not simple!

Ye Qingyu glanced at Xu Jingnan again. This time, the smile on her face was much more genuine than before.

While Butler Wang was called to the side to talk, Ye Qingyu quietly said to Xu Jingnan,

“I had no choice but to use your power. I’m very sorry. Thank you for your cooperation. I’m very grateful.”

At the same time, she thought that she had to thank her savior properly later. Not a verbal thank you, but something practical.

When Xu Jingnan heard this, he completely understood why Ye Qingyu talked to him.

It turned out that she could tell that Butler Wang was polite to him, so she used his influence to make Butler Wang let them off without any grudges.

Suspicion and deep thought flashed across Xu Jingnan’s eyes. This woman was different from what the villagers had said!

Ye Qingyu chatted with Xu Jingnan and Butler Wang. The Ye family members were confused and shocked.

Ever since Ye Qingyu said ‘Brother Jingnan’, Ye Qingfeng’s jaw dropped.

However, he remembered what his big sister had just told him and quickly covered his mouth.

Even if his big sister continued to spout nonsense, he did not speak up to refute or ask. He even ran to his father and brother and whispered to them,

“Big sister asked us to cooperate with her.”

When Ye Dashan heard this, he was immediately filled with doubts and could not ask why. He could only keep a straight face and not refute, but he did not know how to cooperate.

Moreover, as he listened to his daughter, the doubts in his heart increased.

What was his precious daughter doing?!

When did she become so close with Xu Jingnan?

Could it be that Xu Jingnan was the one who saved his daughter after she fell into the water the day before yesterday?

It sounded like it.

After his daughter woke up, she changed her attitude towards Liu Junsheng and even took the initiative to sell her wedding dress. Now, she was trying to get close to Xu Jingnan and even looked very happy.

Could it be that his daughter had fallen in love with him because he had saved her life?!

At the thought of this, the way Ye Dashan looked at Xu Jingnan changed. He looked at him as if he was a father-in-law who was picky about his son-in-law.

Because the fields of the two families were next to each other, he had more contact with Xu Jingnan than the villagers. Seeing that he didn’t know how to grow crops, he did teach him in the beginning. This kid was quite smart and got the hang of it immediately.

Every time he finished teaching him, he still gave him a thank-you gift. Sometimes it was a pheasant, sometimes it was a hare. During that period of time, because of him, the family had a rare chance to eat meat.

Later on, when Xu Jingnan was almost done learning and he had nothing left to teach him, there were no more wild animals given to them. Ye Dashan even secretly felt melancholic for a period of time.

Why was he so smart?!
