step by step

Chapter 80
Butler Xue Er had arrived at some point.

"Butler Xue, you came just in time. These two people came from unknown places, so they rushed into the main hall rashly, it's too arrogant!"

The strong man got up from the ground, pointed at Zhuo Yibai and Wei Yu, and complained to Steward Xue with an aggrieved expression.

Steward Xue glanced at Wei Yu and Zhan Yu.

The two are well-dressed and well-dressed, but they are young.

Especially this young man in blue.

"Steward Xue, this is my friend. The two of us are here today to deliver portraits." Seeing Steward Xue's eyes resting on the two of them, Wei Yu quickly explained.

Butler Xue withdrew his gaze, a gleam flashed in his eyes, and said to the two in a gentle tone:

"So that's how it is."

He cast a friendly look at Zhuo Yibai, and then glanced at the strong man with an unkind expression:
"Presumptuous! Liu Hu, who allowed you to be disrespectful to the two young masters?"

Hearing Steward Xue's scolding, Liu Hu was startled, with a look of panic on his face.

He knelt down and kowtowed to admit his mistake.

"Please punish Steward Xue, I know I was wrong."

Steward Xue saw that he was almost done, and looked at the two of them.

"You two sons, I made you laugh. This man is ignorant, and please have a lot of adults, don't be as knowledgeable as him!"

Zhuo Yibai showed a polite smile: "No problem!"

"The two young masters, please!"

Butler Xue turned sideways and made a gesture of invitation.

Zhuo Yibai followed him, full of puzzlement.

Why is the Ye Mansion suddenly willing to invite them in again?

All this seems too abnormal.

He glanced at Wei Yu from the corner of his eye, and saw that Wei Yu also had a thoughtful expression, and he couldn't help but feel a little doubt in his heart.

Steward Xue led the two of them straight to the door of an exquisite and elegant attic and stopped.

"Young masters, this is the wing of Ye Mansion, you can use whatever is in it."

Steward Xue finished speaking to the two of them, turned and left without continuing to accompany them.

After the two stepped into the attic, Wei Yu closed the door and looked around vigilantly.

The layout of this loft is very unique, and the interior decoration is elegant and full of classic atmosphere.

Except for a long table, the rest of the attic is extremely luxurious. The only thing worth noting is that there is a portrait in front of the long table.

In the portrait, a man and a woman are leaning on each other. The man is handsome and handsome, and the woman is beautiful. They look like a pair of lovers.

Wei Yu walked to the window, opened a window, and suddenly a gust of cool air rushed in, making one feel extremely comfortable.

He turned around and said to Zhuo Yibai:

"Young master, the scenery here is very nice, do you want to go down and visit?"

Zhuo Yibai didn't speak, but turned his eyes to the portrait on the table, revealing a bit of contemplation.

"Sir?"

Seeing this, Wei Yu called out tentatively.

Zhuo Yibai noticed that the portrait in this painting seemed to be very similar to Mrs. Naye.

He remembered one thing.

Ye Fugui is the wife of Ye Mansion, Miss Ye is the eldest lady of Ye Mansion, so the two are mother and daughter?

Just as he was thinking, there was a sound of footsteps.

I saw a gorgeously dressed old lady walking in, followed by two young girls with green arms, well dressed, they should be the granddaughter of the old lady.

They walked to Zhuo Yibai and Wei Yu, looked at them a few times, and then couldn't take their eyes off.

This young man in blue is really too handsome!
"Butler Xue, why did you bring him here?! I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

As soon as Mrs. Xue entered the door, she reprimanded Steward Xue.

"It's the old slave who neglected you! I just came back from the outside, and I haven't had time to take care of the guests!"

Butler Xue looked respectful and explained again and again.

Wei Yu looked at the old lady with a slightly trembling expression.

Although the old woman looked a little rich, she had strong bones and a well-maintained face. She looked to be in her fifties or sixties, her eyes were piercing, and she was wise and shrewd.

Mrs. Xue's eyes swept over the two of them, and finally fell on Zhuo Yibai.

Zhuo Yibai stood aside, with a straight back and a slender figure. The whole person looked elegant and refined, like a fairy among gods, giving people a feeling of not eating fireworks.

Looking at the other party's delicate and handsome face and the noble aura exuding from her body, the old lady's eyes lit up, a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she nodded appreciatively.

She stepped forward, cupped her hands at the two of them, and said gently:

"You two young masters, I'm really sorry, the old man was delayed just now because he was unwell."

Zhuo Yibai and Wei Yu hurriedly returned the salute humbly.

Xue Zhiyan and Xue Youling behind Mrs. Xue also bowed their knees and saluted, their faces blushing uncontrollably.

Mrs. Xue was a little excited.

She heard from the servant in charge of monitoring the porter that an uninvited guest came to the house looking for Ye Zhaoyan, so she became suspicious.

He hurriedly asked Steward Xue to send someone to investigate.

Before Xue Huaidan left, he had carefully explained that people with suspicious identities must not be allowed to enter the mansion, especially Ye Zhaoyan should not be allowed to meet outsiders rashly.

As a result, Housekeeper Xue Er found out through inquiring that this pedestrian most likely came from Yuntian Street in the east of the city.

That's a gathering place for dignitaries!

How could she be negligent?

Immediately changed his clothes and came to greet him in person.

Want to see who the other party is.

When she saw that the young man in front of her was so extraordinary, she couldn't help being very surprised.

I'm afraid this person has a lot of background!
"Young master, I don't know who you are?"

Mrs. Xue suppressed the shock in her heart, and asked with a puzzled look on her face.

"My name is Bai Yi, and I'm a painter."

Zhuo Yibai answered.

painter?

Hearing these two words, Mrs. Xue and Xue Youling's eyes flashed with surprise.

Xue Zhiyan's eyes were glued to the blue figure, thoughtful.

"So it's Painter Bai..."

The expression on Mrs. Xue's face became much colder,
She turned her head and looked Wei Yu up and down again, pondering for a moment, with a bit of disdain in her eyes.

This person seems to be very imposing, and the clothes are only used by ordinary wealthy people, which is not uncommon.

It is in line with the identity of the painter.

The maidservants are used to observing words and expressions, so they withdrew their respect from their faces when they saw this, and quietly looked at the two of them.

These two people are really good-looking, but it's a pity that their status is low and they can't be regarded as people.

Compared with their identities as the first-class maidservants in Ye Mansion, they are not that noble.

Thinking of this, their chests became even more straight.

Wei Yu frowned slightly, these maidservants looked extremely proud, judging people by their appearance, all of them were arrogant, with strong contempt and disdain in their eyes.

It's really a wind and a rudder.

Looking at the old lady and those two young girls, a bit of disgust rose in his heart.

"I don't know why the two young masters came to Ye Mansion?"

The old lady glanced at Zhuo Yibai sharply and asked.

Her tone was a little distant.
