Forced to be a concubine, I went to my husband's place to become a wealthy merchant

Chapter 205

In fact, Ye Xi no longer had any impression of the other party. After all, three or four years had passed.

But the other party recognized her at a glance and came over to greet her, which scared Xia Mu and Dong Ju who were following him, and they thought the other party was a lecher.

"Miss, do you still recognize me?"

A tall and thin young man stopped in front of Ye Xi and spoke excitedly.

He completely ignored the two guards blocking his way and kept his eyes on Ye Xi.

"Who are you?" Ye Xi felt that the other person looked familiar, but she couldn't remember who he was.

"My name is Ah Shan, and it was the young lady who gave me this name.

The young lady also let me learn to read and write, and asked someone to take care of my younger sister. "

The boy explained excitedly.

Ye Xi remembered that this was indeed the case.

At that time, she had not yet divorced Pei Zhu, and in order to get rid of Wei Jue, she sponsored a dock worker in Hangzhou City.

She looked the boy in front of her up and down and found that he was much taller than she had remembered and had grown up, looking like a man.

Ashan's appearance is still okay, but malnutrition in his early years caused him to be pale and thin.

I guess it’s because his nutritional status has improved. Now he’s like a different person.

"So it's you, not bad, I haven't seen you for many years, you have grown up.

Why are you here? Beijing is a thousand miles away from Hangzhou."

“After I finished school, I wanted to take the imperial examinations, but I found that I was not suitable for it because I started to learn too late.

I just learned some teachings from Confucius and Mencius, and then I followed a businessman to do business, and I have achieved some success. Now I come to the capital to see the world."

Ah Shan scratched his head embarrassedly.

Although the other party only mentioned it in one sentence, Ye Xi knew how difficult it was for him and was afraid that he must have suffered a lot.

Since Ye Xi was also a business person, the two of them could naturally chat with each other, so she invited Ah Shan to have dinner at a restaurant next door.

Xia Mu and Dong Ju had been following Ye Xi out for the past year and had seen her talking about business, so they did not stop her.

Ye Xi asked for a private room to have a chat with A Shan, and learned from A Shan about his life in the past few years.

With the knowledge, his originally clever brain became even more capable.

Now I have achieved some success and am no longer a penniless child.

Ah Shan also expressed his gratitude to the Ye family to Ye Xi, saying that he had been taken care of by his brother Ye Xin in recent years.

Ye Xi knew that her brother would do this.

Ashan's sister has been staying at Aunt Luxing's house and is being well taken care of.

Ashan also joked that he had to work hard to earn a dowry for his sister.

A Shan was also curious why Ye Xi was in the capital, but he didn't see Sister Chuntao around.

Ye Xi did not mention her past, but simply explained that she followed her family to settle in the capital and gave birth to a son.

When Ah Shan heard that Ye Xi had given birth to a little boy, he quickly congratulated her and said that he must treat her to dinner today.

Ye Xi did not argue with him, and the two of them had a very pleasant conversation.

Ye Xi knew that Ashan would stay in the capital for a while, so she gave him her address and asked Ashan for the name of the inn where he was staying and his address in Hangzhou City.

This means that they hope to keep in touch in the future, which Ah Shan naturally wishes for.

Ye Xi didn't expect that the problem she had been struggling to solve was actually solved because of meeting Ashan.

Later, during several conversations with Ashan, I learned that Ashan actually wanted to travel far away on those ships going out to sea and see the outside world.

Isn't that just wanting to emulate Zheng He's voyages to the West?

Ye Xi didn’t know whether the land map of this fictional era was consistent with her understanding, but she thought this was a good opportunity.
