Chapter 2 Nightmare
"Stop crying." Mrs. Ye raised her hand to help Ye Zhaoyan wipe away the tears from her cheeks, "For such a big man, he can cry whenever he wants to, it really worries my mother."

Ye Zhaoyan looked at the beautiful woman in front of him, and couldn't imagine that she would be reduced to the old woman in her previous life.

Ye Fugui, Ye Fugui, has always been the leader of the famous ladies.

The Ye family was born in a wealthy family in Jindu. His ancestors were heroes in the founding of the country. His father, Ye Wenxuan, was a military champion. His grandfather was the most prestigious leader under the late emperor.The Ye family's sons are also dragons and phoenixes among the people, all of them are outstanding, and their influence in the court is quite extensive.

As the only daughter of General Ye, Mrs. Ye was very much loved, and she was the envy of the famous ladies in the capital since she was a child.

Two years after Ye Fugui and Ji, because of General Ye's love and reluctance to give up, he recruited Xue Huaidan, the number one scholar of the year, into Zhuye's mansion.Even Ye Fugui's daughter was given the surname Ye, and was given the Zhao character, which is only available to noble men. She was carefully raised and learned martial arts since she was a child.

After the joy of the rest of his life, Ye Zhaoyan remembered the tragedy of his previous life.

She has been reborn, and the haze has not gone away.If the poisonous snake lurking in the dark cannot be pulled out, the Ye family will repeat the mistakes of the previous life.

Thinking of this, she looked at Mrs. Ye seriously and said, "Mother, is sister Yan still in the suburbs?"

Sister Yan is the illegitimate daughter of Xue Yinxian and Yan Fengzi who had an affair outside in the previous life, and later Xue Jianjian.She was invited to the Ye Mansion in the name of her niece, and her mother, Yan Fengzi, pretended to be friends with the Ye family, and later...
Then there were all kinds of bizarre changes.

The images of the previous life came rushing in like a tidal wave, Zhao Yan's eyes slowly turned red, and the long eyelashes covered the monstrous hatred in Qing Qing's eyes.

She will never let those dirty things from her previous life happen again!

Mrs. Ye didn't know her mood change at the moment, seeing her daughter drooping her head in silence, she thought she was overly frightened, and comforted her: "Zhaoer, you should cultivate your body first, and we will talk about these things later."

Mrs. Ye didn't care about the whereabouts of the Yan family's niece.Thinking of this little girl who met once, for some reason, she always had some strange feelings, and she couldn't tell what she liked or disliked.

Zhao Yan nodded slightly, "I will listen to my mother."

At this time, a maid came in with a tray, on which were placed a bowl of white fungus soup and some pastries, "Miss, you just woke up and need to eat something to replenish your strength. This white fungus soup is ordered by the master." Cooked it by hand in the kitchen, and the master also ordered the servant to prepare a few sets of clothes for you to wash, you should drink it while it is hot, and the servant will leave."

"Your father always cares about you." Yeh's face relaxed a lot, he put the tray on the table, took out a few small plates, put them beside him, and took a sip of the white fungus soup to test the temperature.

Following her movements, a familiar strong fragrance wafted out, and that smell once made Ye Zhaoyan break out in cold sweat after dreaming in the middle of the night.

"Don't drink!" Ye Zhaoyan stretched out half of his body, swept off the dishes, and fell off the bed.

Seeing this, Ye Zhaohua on the side leaned over to support Ye Zhaoyan, but suddenly a strong brush passed by, and a tall and tall figure rushed over even faster, catching her firmly.

The crystal clear white jade bowl fell, spilling most of the soup, and landed on the thick blanket on the feet, unexpectedly intact.

Ye Zhaoyan only felt that it fell on a firm chest, and the tip of his nose was somewhat thick with incense, phoenix mist, the noble fragrance most respected by the upper-class women in the capital.

Looking up is the young man's graceful jaw, and the other party's phoenix eyes are staring at her with concern, "Are you okay?"

The smell made her breathe stagnant, she coughed hurriedly, and retreated back to her mother without a trace.

Ye Shi looked at her daughter who was still in shock, stroked her forehead, and said slightly startled: "What's wrong?"

Ye Zhaoyan recalled the situation just now, and his thoughts turned. Ye Zhaochen seemed to start to leave the moment she called, and the moment he rushed over, the expression on his face couldn't tell whether it was nervous or frightened.

After considering her words, she said slowly, "Mother, this soup seems to have a bad taste, maybe it was made overnight."

This soup is a drug that makes people fall into nightmares after long-term use, and gradually causes hallucinations. It is also the culprit that caused her to miss several opportunities in her previous life.

She didn't intend to speak out at this time.Even if this Tang Tang's conspiracy is exposed today, Xue Huaidan will only plot against their mother and daughter from other places.

What's more, Ye Zhaoyan in his previous life had always trusted his father, and he didn't have the exquisite heart that was obtained through all kinds of plots.

Hearing this, Mrs. Ye looked down at the tremella soup in the porcelain bowl, frowned slightly, and said to Xiyun beside her, "Go and invite Wen Niang."

Wen Niang is a well-known cook specially invited by Xue Huaidan from Jiangnan. She cooks some exquisite food in different ways on weekdays for Ye's mother and daughter to enjoy.

Seeing this, Ye Zhaohua's face changed slightly, and he looked at Mrs. Ye: "Let me try it!"

Before he could finish speaking, Ye Zhaochen had already picked up the porcelain bowl first, scooped up the soup, put it to his lips and sniffed it gently.

"Hmm." He frowned, looking a little confused.

"Chen'er, what's the matter? Is there something wrong?" Ye looked at him, her heart tightened.

Ye Zhaochen is a registered disciple of Hengyang Medicine Temple, and he is somewhat proficient in pharmacology. If he says there is a problem, he will be right.

"This bowl of tremella soup has medicinal effects!" Ye Zhaochen stretched his expression, "This is a medicinal diet."

At this time, a slender woman came in staggeringly, bowed her head and knelt down with a plop: "Madam atones, it's the servant who sees that the lady is always having nightmares, and is worried, so she made this medicinal meal on her own initiative, I only hope that the lady can feel at ease." Rest."

Ye Zhaoyan was surprised, if she had said earlier that the soup was poisonous, now Wenniang would be a scapegoat.

The worst situation was predicted in advance, which shows the deep scheming of the people behind it.

"Slave is guilty!" Seeing that no one responded, Wen Niang became even more terrified, and began to kowtow unceasingly, and the crisp sound followed her movements.

With mixed feelings in Ye's heart, he said irritably: "Stop it, if there is really no problem with this medicinal diet, I will ask the imperial doctor to test it."

Before she finished speaking, Wen Niang had already picked up the remaining soup and drank it up, and said hurriedly: "Absolutely not! I will be fine if I drink another ten bowls, Madam, don't worry!"

Ye Zhaoyan looked at the white jade bowl, it was as clean as new, not a drop left.

"Mother, my cousin said this is medicinal food, it must be good for the body."

Seeing her speak, Mrs. Ye suppressed the doubts in her heart, nodded reluctantly and said: "Ms. Wen will be punished with one year's salary, and she will not be contaminated with the young lady's food. From now on, she will return to the master's side to serve her."

Ye Fugui is not deep in thought, and has always been generous to others.It's just that this matter touched her daughter's safety, so she had to be cautious.

After all, Wenniang is also Xue Huaidan's person.

Ye Shi treats him with respect as a guest, and is gentle and courteous outside, and she never oversteps even in trivial matters.

Even Xue Huaitan is proud of his wife's obedience and understanding, the subtlety of this may not be known to anyone.

Turning around, she saw her daughter's sluggish face, feeling distressed: "Zhao'er, are you starving?" Then she picked up Xiyun's new porridge, handed it to Zhaoyan, and fed her gently.

Seeing that she had a good appetite, Mrs. Ye showed a smile on her face: "In half a month, your father will pick you up to Tangyuan to escape the summer heat."

Ye Zhaoyan's smile froze on his face: "Is it midsummer already?"

Before she died, she lived in a daze for three years, and she was tortured so much that she almost forgot the time.

Tangyuan was the beginning of the nightmare of the previous life.
