My bad father married a princess, my mother divorced me, and I became the group's favorite

Chapter 194 Master Ye is probably overthinking

A barely perceptible smile appeared on Ye Xiaoxiao's face.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, madam. I hope you can find a wife that suits my father as soon as possible, and also find a daughter-in-law with a gentler temperament for my grandmother!"

After hearing this, Madam Xie nodded repeatedly in agreement, then hurriedly said goodbye and left.

The crowd that had originally gathered around Liu's mansion gradually dispersed when they saw that there was no more excitement to watch.

After Madam Xie left the Liu Mansion, she had been thinking about how to talk to the old lady of the Ye family.

To be honest, she regretted it now. Why did she dare to take over the affairs of the Ye Mansion in the first place? However, it was useless to regret it now. She should think about how to complete the tasks assigned by Miss Ye or Madam Liu.

When she arrived at the Ye Mansion, Madam Xie took a deep breath and gritted her teeth before being welcomed into Old Madam Ye's courtyard by the servants.

The old lady of the Ye family was leaning on the couch with her eyes closed. When she saw Madam Xie come in, she opened her eyes slightly and became much better. She let the little maid gently help her up.

"The old lady is well."

Upon seeing this, Madam Xie hurriedly bowed and greeted.

"Thank you, Madam. You've worked hard. What was the result of your going to the Liu Mansion to mediate?"

Madam Xie smiled and said carefully:

"Madam, this... Madam Liu is really stubborn. No matter how I persuade her, she won't give in. I'm afraid this matter is going to be difficult to handle!"

When the old lady of the Ye family heard this, her face suddenly turned gloomy.

"How foolish! How could she be so cruel for the sake of the child? Tell me, what does it take for her to change her mind?"

Seeing this, Madam Xie hesitated for a moment, but still mustered up the courage to say,

"Madam, Madam Liu has a very tough attitude. I'm afraid she won't be so easy to convince."

The old lady of the Ye family looked at her impatiently, thinking that she was not paying attention, and took the opportunity to take more reward money.

"Just say whatever you want to say. Did Liu ask you for something?"

Madam Xie was disdainful in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face. She cleared her throat and

"Madam, you see, Master Ye is obsessed with Madam Liu, but Madam Liu doesn't appreciate it. This is not a solution. Master Ye can't be alone forever, right? I'm thinking about finding another marriage for Master Ye. Maybe Master Ye will have a new wife and give you a precious grandson. The good days of the Ye family are still to come."

When the old lady of the Ye family heard this, her eyes widened with anger.

"What did you say? Find another marriage for Wenbo? Whose idea was this?"

Madam Xie trembled with fear, but still pretended to be calm and said,

"Madam, I am also thinking about the Ye family. You see, Master Ye is not young anymore, and it is not good for him to be single all the time. Besides, if we can find a suitable woman who can take care of Master Ye and help the Ye family at the same time, wouldn't that be killing two birds with one stone?"

The old lady of the Ye family snorted coldly.

"Humph, what do you know? Wenbo only has Liu Yunniang in his heart. How could he be interested in other women?"

Madam Xie said hurriedly,

"Madam, that being said, there is really no room for maneuver on Madam Liu's side. I have also been looking around in the capital these days, and I have found several women who are quite compatible with Master Ye in terms of family background, appearance, and talent. You might as well let Master Ye meet them, maybe there will be a pleasant surprise."

The old lady of the Ye family was so angry that her face turned blue.

"Madam Xie, you are so brave! I asked you to mediate the reconciliation, but you turned around and proposed marriage to my son. What are you thinking? Madam Xie, have you forgotten who paid you to come here?"

Madam Xie took a deep breath and pretended to be wronged.

"Madam, please calm down. I really have good intentions. I saw Mr. Ye trapped in love and couldn't bear it, so I came up with this idea. Besides, your granddaughter is willing to do this, which can be regarded as filial piety!"

The old lady of the Ye family was so angry that her chest was heaving and she almost couldn't breathe. She pointed at Madam Xie, her fingers trembling slightly.

"You...get out of here! You don't need to interfere in the affairs of my Ye family! You are an unfilial descendant! You are all ungrateful..."

Madam Xie wanted to say more, but she was full of regret. She was too impatient. If she had known earlier, she would have mentioned this matter later.

"Old lady..."

"Come here, see the guests off!"

Old Madam Ye was so angry that she almost couldn't breathe. She didn't want to say anything more and directly ordered the guests to leave.

Seeing this, Madam Xie didn't dare to stay any longer and had to leave.

However, Madam Xie was still somewhat unwilling.

She thought that if she could arrange this marriage, she would make a fortune.

It must be said that Madam Xie is a money-grubber. She is afraid that she cannot earn the one thousand taels of betrothal money from Old Madam Ye. However, Ye Xiaoxiao has promised that if she finds a new wife for her father, the betrothal money will be doubled. Isn't that two thousand taels?

Madam Xie thought about it in her mind. Mr. Ye is quite young, yet he owns such a big mansion in the capital. He must have some family background. Although he has lost his official position, maybe he will be reused someday. It would be better to start with Mr. Ye.

Madam Xie came to the outside of Ye Wenbo's study and asked the servant to inform him.

Ye Wenbo was feeling upset and didn't want to see her, but thinking that she was invited by his mother to reconcile Liu Yunniang, he impatiently let her in.

Madam Xie entered the study, bowed, and said with a smile on her face,

"Master Ye, I came here today to tell you something."

Ye Wenbo frowned.

"Thank you, ma'am, please go ahead."

Madam Xie smiled apologetically.

"Master Ye, I know you have deep feelings for Madam Liu. But Madam Liu doesn't want to get back together, and it's no use for you to wait like this. I have some connections in Beijing over the years, and if you are willing, there are beautiful women with clean family backgrounds and outstanding talents. Why don't I arrange one for you and make her a concubine?"

Ye Wenbo hadn't reacted at first, but now that he heard that it was actually a marriage proposal for him, his face suddenly darkened.

"I'm not interested. Don't mention these things in front of me."

Madam Xie did not give up and continued to persuade,

"Master Ye, just take a look. Maybe there is a girl among them that makes your heart beat. Think about it, if you remain single, what will people outside say about you? Besides, you should also consider the Ye family. At your age, your family will always need some offspring."

Ye Wenbo's face was terribly gloomy, and his hands were clenched into fists.

"Ye Quan, show him out!"

"Master Ye, please don't be angry. I really mean well!"

Ye Wenbo spoke in a bad tone, looking at Madam Xie with disgust.

"Don't worry about my affairs, go away! I tell you, if I knew that you were gossiping outside and saying that I wanted to marry another woman, and that Yunniang and Xiaoxiao misunderstood my feelings, I would never forgive you."

Madam Xie shrank her neck in fear, but she was still unwilling to give in and blurted out,

"Mr. Ye is probably overthinking it. Don't say it's a misunderstanding. It was Miss Ye and Madam Liu who mentioned this marriage proposal for you."

When Ye Wenbo heard this, he was stunned, his eyes full of disbelief.

His expression changed from gloomy to angry, veins popped out on his forehead.

"What did you say? Yunniang and Xiaoxiao? This is impossible!"
