Chapter 87 Huang Ying's Determination

Chapter 87 Huang Ying's Determination
Fatty Huang immediately jumped up from the ground, grinning and boasting to Huang Ying: "I just said that Brother Ye Xuan is my good friend, there is no need to be so particular."

However, Huang Ying glanced at her brother in annoyance, and no matter how Qiuyan and others tried to pull her up, she refused to get up and kowtowed three times to Ye Xuan stubbornly.

Ye Xuan suddenly felt a little embarrassed. Although he had a clear conscience for the three loud bangs, he still felt a little awkward in front of the other person's eldest brother.

However, what made Ye Xuan even more embarrassed was yet to come. Huang Ying kowtowed but could not get up. She said to Ye Xuan with a serious face:
"Master, from today on, I, Huang Ying, am yours. I will work like a slave for you without any complaints!"

Ye Xuan was startled for a moment, and then he remembered that when Huang Ying begged Ye Xuan to save Fatty Huang, she said that no matter success or failure, she was willing to sell herself as a slave and work like a slave for Ye Xuan.

At that time, Ye Xuan just thought it was a polite remark and didn't take it to heart afterwards.

I never thought that it was not just talk.

However, taking someone's sister as a slave in front of her elder brother is too low.

Ye Xuan immediately shook his head and said, "Your brother and I are comrades and friends. How could I be greedy for your reward?"

"Don't say similar things again in the future."

Originally, Ye Xuan thought that Huang Ying was just shy and was too embarrassed to pretend that she had not said what she had said, so this happened.

So he just let it go and gave her a way out, thinking that Huang Ying would take advantage of the situation and the matter would be over.

Who would have thought that Huang Ying would be so resolute and say, "One word of spit is as powerful as a nail. Don't think that women are inferior to men!"

"I, Huang Ying, will definitely do what I promised!"

Ye Xuan and the others were all stunned. Only Fatty Huang pulled Ye Xuan with a wry smile and said, "Brother Ye, please don't try to persuade me. I have this kind of temper in my life and no one can help me!"

"She has been stubborn since she was young. She is very stubborn! Even ten cows can't pull her back from her decision!"

Ye Xuan suddenly gritted his teeth and felt that the situation was quite tricky.

God have mercy on him, Ye Xuan was kneeling on the ground begging him simply because of Huang Ying's deep brotherly love, and because modern people's souls are not yet used to being with a girl.

Only then did he soften his heart and agreed to try to find out about Fatty Huang's case.

I didn't expect that my kindness would bring me trouble back home.

Seeing her still kneeling on the ground, looking like she would not get up unless Ye Xuan took her in, Ye Xuan felt a headache.

Originally, the family had Chunfeng Xiayu, so there was no need to add any more daily chores, but they still had to take in Qiuyan.

But Qiuyan is at least a know-how person and has a strong ability to deal with people, so it would be a good choice for her to stay in the mansion and be a housekeeper.

But Huang Ying was different. Firstly, she was Fatty Huang's sister. It would be embarrassing to treat his colleague's sister like a servant, and it would not look good if the news got out.

Secondly, although Huang Ying vowed to sell herself as a slave, she would not take a single ounce of silver from Ye Xuan.

Regardless of whether this is true or false, Ye Xuan would not be able to treat the other person as a body slave.

I always feel embarrassed not to give red envelopes during festivals, new clothes for all seasons, and monthly salary.

If you calculate it this way, doesn't that mean we'll have one more mouth to feed?
Thinking of this, Ye Xuan couldn't help but look at Huang Ying with some suspicion.

Could it be that this girl knew that her brother was spending his days eating, drinking and having fun, and that the salary he received was not enough to cover his expenses, so she found an enemy for herself in advance?
But looking at Huang Ying's tender face, she didn't seem like a woman with such deep thoughts.

At this time, Qiuyan pulled his sleeve and pouted. Ye Xuan understood, smiled at Fatty Huang embarrassedly, and said, "Go and persuade your sister, I have something to do first."

After saying that, he followed Qiuyan and left the hall.

As soon as she was out of Huang Ying's sight, Qiu Yan said with a smile, "Master, I think it would be better to take this little girl in first."

Ye Xuan rolled his eyes when he heard that. He thought Qiu Yan would have some good ideas, but he didn't expect that she would call his subordinate Huang Ying.

However, Qiuyan said seriously: "Based on my experience of judging people over the years, this girl is indeed stubborn. If you refuse to accept her, something bad might happen."

"What happened?" Ye Xuan'antun became curious. If someone insisted on being his slave, what could go wrong if he refused?

I've only heard that bullying men and women will cause trouble, but I've never heard that being passively bullied by men and women can also cause trouble.

But Qiuyan said, "Think about it, if you firmly refuse to accept her, this girl's self-esteem will be hurt, and she might even commit suicide."

Ye Xuan was shocked. He remembered reading a story in a book before. He couldn't remember the name of the protagonist, but he knew that he was a very famous historical figure.

This buddy was once being chased. He escaped across a river and saw a peasant woman washing clothes. Fearing that the peasant woman would reveal his whereabouts, he asked her not to reveal his whereabouts.

The peasant woman agreed, but the man was still worried, so he told her again not to reveal his whereabouts.

The peasant woman became angry and humiliated when she saw that her friend didn't believe her.

In order to prove that he was a man of his words, he actually jumped into the river in front of others!

Although this kind of thing seems ridiculous to Ye Xuan, it is not unprecedented in a certain historical context and cognitive environment.

"Is there another mouth to feed?" Ye Xuan muttered to himself, complaining in his heart.

No wonder there are so many corrupt officials in the world. Look at the families of those officials, there are not many people there.

Especially for high-ranking officials, there are often dozens or even hundreds of maids and servants in their homes.

With so many mouths waiting to be fed, Zhu Yuanzhang's salary was not enough to feed them all. What else could he do but be greedy?

For a moment, Ye Xuan actually developed a little empathy for the corrupt officials.

But soon, this empathy was thrown aside.

The maids and servants in those corrupt officials' homes are not like Ye Xuan. They are either given by others, or seek help when they are in trouble, or are forced to be accepted as servants by them.

It is because I am greedy for enjoyment that I have so many servants.

As if she saw Ye Xuan's dilemma, Qiu Yan smiled and said, "But this girl is from an official family after all. After all, her brother is a deputy captain. I think she can't endure much hardship."

Ye Xuan's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this. Qiu Yan was right.

He could just accept Huang Ying as his wife first, and then deliberately assign her some dirty and tiring work, so that when she couldn't bear the hardship, he would leave.

Ye Xuan touched Qiuyan's hair bun happily and praised her, "This is a great idea. I'll remember your contribution!"

After saying this, he strode back to the hall, refreshed.

"Okay, I'll take you in."
