Chapter 27
Ye Piaoling: “It’s not dead.”
Ye Liaozhai looked carefully twice, only to see the koi fish floating belly-up, stiffly on the surface of the water.
Ye Liaozhai questioned, “Isn’t this dead?”
Ye Piaoling affirmed, “No, maybe it feels that this posture is more convenient for contemplating its fish life.”
Ye Liaozhai: “…”
He thought to himself, since Ye Piaoling came back, she really has changed a lot.
She’s even developed some peculiar hobbies, like pretending dead fish are alive and keeping them.
But these quirks are harmless, and Ye Liaozhai doesn’t take them to heart.
He and Ye Piaoling sat down at the table. “Ling’er, the Tianwen Sect’s enrollment day is coming soon. You and Xiangxiang are both of age to enter. I’ve already made arrangements. When the time comes, you’ll go register together.”
Ye Piaoling nodded, “Alright.”
She didn’t really want to go to school, but had no reason to refuse…
Ye Liaozhai said, “I heard that this time, the Regent King will personally attend the apprenticeship ceremony! There will be a competition for the position of chief disciple at the ceremony. You must participate actively and perform well, strive to leave a good impression on the Regent King!”
Ye Piaoling blinked.
Nani? On the day of enrollment, Di Xiulan will be there too?
Last time, the impression she left on Di Xiulan should have been quite memorable. She almost got fed to the dragon…
Ye Liaozhai was still rambling on, “You are an Immortal Vein Bearer, even the royal family treats you differently. If you can achieve good results in the various trials at Tianwen Sect, your future will be limitless!
“Also, there’s another Immortal Vein Bearer enrolling with you, the daughter of General Hua. I’ve never gotten along with General Hua, and he’s always proud of his daughter, so you must work twice as hard and absolutely cannot lose to her!”
Ye Piaoling listened with one ear and let it out the other, nodding occasionally in agreement.
“Mm, okay, got it, I understand…”
As the two chatted, the servants had already begun bringing out the dishes one after another.
Meanwhile.
In the kitchen, Aunt Liu sneaked in furtively.
She knew that today the Master would dine in the Eldest Miss’s room.
As long as she took this opportunity to get rid of both of them at once, she’d never have to fear anything again.
None of the other concubines in the mansion had children. The only one left, Second Miss Ye Xiangxiang, was firmly under her control, and Ye Tianbao was her own son… In the future, Ye Mansion would be hers to command!
The dishes for Falling Petals Courtyard were all ready, only the final soup remained.
Aunt Liu walked to the stove and said, “This soup smells so good, may I have a bowl?”
The servants all knew she was pregnant, so naturally didn’t dare refuse.
Aunt Liu picked up the ladle and slowly stirred the pot twice.
During this process, the powder hidden under her fingernails silently fell in…
No one noticed her.
Aunt Liu sneered inwardly.
Ye Liaozhai, I’ve always wished you’d die sooner, and now, I’ll do it myself!
…
Falling Petals Courtyard.
Ye Liaozhai’s pre-school education was nearly finished, and the last soup was served.
Ye Liaozhai displayed his qualities as a loving father, personally serving Ye Piaoling a bowl. “Ling’er, after all I’ve told you, don’t let your father down.”
He then served himself a bowl.
Ye Piaoling didn’t actually like soup, but since her cheap father had served it himself, she picked up the spoon, planning to take a courtesy sip.
Her lips neared the soup, steam rising, and Ye Piaoling’s heart jolted.
-There’s poison in this soup!
The martial arts rewarded by the System had given her senses far beyond ordinary people. As an expert, she instantly detected something wrong in the food.
Ye Piaoling suddenly looked up.
Across from her, the Prime Minister had already taken a sip and was slurping down a second.
Ye Piaoling jumped up and slapped him.
“Pfft-”
Ye Liaozhai’s head was knocked to the side, and all the soup in his mouth sprayed out.
He turned to glare at Ye Piaoling, about to question her.
Ye Piaoling hurriedly said, “There’s poison in the soup!”
She didn’t have much affection for this cheap father, but she couldn’t just watch him get poisoned in her own courtyard and risk being suspected of patricide…
“Poison!?”
Ye Liaozhai’s face changed instantly.
He had just swallowed a mouthful!
Ye Piaoling said, “Father, let me help you cleanse your stomach!”
With that, she grabbed the teapot from the table and shoved it into Ye Liaozhai’s mouth.
She started pouring water into his stomach.
A whole pot of tea went down, and Ye Liaozhai felt his stomach churning…
Ye Piaoling seized the moment and struck his abdomen with her palm.
“Ah-pfft!!!”
Ye Liaozhai flew off his chair, landing on the ground while vomiting.
“Ugh… bleh…”
Ye Liaozhai lay on the ground, retching with his whole body trembling.
After a while.
Ye Piaoling asked with concern, “Is it all out? Any left?”
Ye Liaozhai gasped, “I-I think there’s still some…”
Ye Piaoling didn’t hesitate, grabbed his collar, and gave him another big slap.
“Bleh!!!”
Ye Liaozhai was knocked to the ground again, rolled over, and vomited once more…
Ye Piaoling looked at him and asked, “Is it all out this time?”
