Chapter 39 The Uses of Green Fish



Chapter 39 The Uses of Green Fish

Huang Ye opened the letter from her elder brother. Her elder brother's handwriting was just like him, elegant and dignified. In the letter, her elder brother told her that he listened to Huang Ye and no longer put pressure on himself. He understood that his family cared most about his health rather than whether he could bring honor to the family. When he relaxed, he would go out for a walk with his classmates and help the teacher copy books in his spare time. He also began to make friends and sometimes went out to play with his good friends during the two days of vacation every month. He obviously felt that his interpersonal relationships had improved a lot.

He told Huang Ye that for some reason, although he was not as hardworking as before, his knowledge did not decline, but improved instead. Several teachers liked him very much and paid special attention to him. Two years later, in the spring imperial examination, the teachers wanted him to take part in it and try his luck.

Huang Ye smiled after reading her elder brother's letter. This elder brother was very smart. As long as he listened to her and arranged his schoolwork properly without the pressure, he could fully unleash his intelligence. It would be strange if his grades did not improve.

Finally, she read the letter from her second brother, which was in an extra-large envelope, thick and bulging. Huang Ye opened it and read it. First, her second brother told her that the damn Xu Rou was spreading rumors all over the capital that Huang Ye was not praying for her family out of filial piety, but was hiding because he was afraid that she would cause trouble, which made him hate her to the core.

In fact, people who can live in the capital are not stupid. The Huang family is an old and aristocratic family. How could they be afraid of you, an upstart who made his fortune with the help of his daughter? They said that they were hiding away just to save face. Xu Rou didn't know that she had lost another wave of people invisibly.

The second brother was so angry that he asked Qing Yu'er for advice. The two of them followed Xu Rou's brother and disguised themselves in the alley where he was alone. They covered his face, put him in a sack and beat him up. He was beaten so badly that two of his teeth were knocked out. That kid was a bad guy that everyone hated. Even if the Bo's Mansion suspected him later, they would not suspect him. Besides, the eldest wife of the Bo's Mansion didn't want to get involved in this mess. He was also a little bully who was used to being lawless. Isn't it normal for him to have a few enemies? I'm afraid that he will bring trouble to the Bo's Mansion one day. Then both the brother and sister will be worried.

The key point was that this matter was reported to my grandfather, who for some reason was certain that he had done it. He called him over, gave him a light lecture, and told him not to do it again, and then sent him away. He even felt that his grandfather agreed with him. His father didn't even say anything to him, but the look in his eyes was encouraging. His grandmother and mother each rewarded her with a silver note, saying that rewarding him had helped the family vent their anger. His eldest brother also praised him behind his back and rewarded him with a month's salary.

Huang Ye had a hunch that Xu Rou must have known that it was the Huang family who did it. Although Xu Rou was selfish and did not seem to feel sorry for beating her brother, she was too proud to stand this humiliation. She had to tell her second brother to be careful of the siblings, as they were two mad dogs who would not let go once they bit someone.

In addition, there are some gossips about the high-ranking families in the capital, such as which young man is engaged, which daughter is married, which old man has passed away, and the secret ones, which young lady is secretly engaged to someone else, and which young man has a mistress. The information covers almost half of the officials in the capital.

Although Qingyu'er is now registered under Huang Zihong's name, he let Qingyu'er go out to find out all kinds of news. Qingyu'er is really like a fish in water and full of energy. He is smart, sweet-mouthed, thick-skinned, and humble. As long as he wants to confirm the news, he will do everything he can to find out. It can be said that all the gossip in this letter is true.

Huang Ye couldn't help but sigh that Qing Yu'er was really a good candidate to be a spy. She couldn't let this good candidate down. She already had a vague idea in her mind, and it was gradually taking shape.

Huang Ye carefully sifted through the letter for useful information. She wanted to find something useful in it. Although there was a lot of information this time, there wasn't much useful information. However, in such a short time, it was already very good.

The next day, Huang Ye started to write back letters in her spare time, first to her father and mother. She told her father to keep a low profile, be especially careful with what he said, and not to seek attention anymore. Now that he had made such a great contribution and was at the center of the storm, it was necessary to calm down the heat steadily. There were villains who were harmful to her everywhere, and she was afraid that her father would be tricked by others if he was not careful.

The letters to her mother were much more relaxed. She asked her mother to stay healthy, give her a brother or sister, and be in a good mood every day. She hoped that when she returned home in the future, there would be a beautiful mother waiting for her. Strangely enough, since Huang Ye was born, her mother seemed to have made up the number and no more good news came from her.
