My Princess Holds Superpowers

Such conviction only made Ye Gaoyun more determined in his thoughts, resolved that he must firmly cling to Ye Jiu's coattails in the future.

After leaving Ye Jiu's place, Ye Gaoyun and Mrs. Yan gathered. Mrs. Yan asked, "What did our little sister say?"

"Let's talk about it after some time has passed. Right now, there are more and more refugees in the town; it's not a good time, and I've been too impatient," Ye Gaoyun said.

Mrs. Yan still had her own worries, "No matter how smart our little sister is, she is still just a girl, and she's young. Are you perhaps placing too much importance on the advice you give her?"

Ye Gaoyun, however, couldn't help but laugh, "You, stop looking at our little sister as if she were still a child. She is not an ordinary girl. Have you ever seen an ordinary girl accumulate such a family business at such a swift pace?"

Moreover, according to what the fourth brother said, our little sister even opened a shop in the capital city. Ye Gaoyun is no fool, and in fact, he is even shrewder than both the eldest and the second brothers.

It can be said that thankfully, Ye Gaoyun isn't as greedy as the senior branches of the family used to be. Otherwise, if Ye Gaoyun were to make calculations, Ye Jiu certainly wouldn't have it so easy.

Just look at the Yan Family; it seems as if Old Master Yan kicked Ye Gaoyun out because he got his own son, yet that also included Ye Gaoyun's own desire to seize the chance to break away from the Yan Family.

Otherwise, even if Ye Gaoyun moved out, Old Master Yan would definitely be skinned.

The reason Ye Jiu advised Ye Gaoyun was actually that he had another plan in mind, something still uncertain and not yet the right time to talk about, so he kept silent about it.

Anyway, no matter how you look at it, they are his own brothers. Ye Jiu would consider their interests and would never harm them, no matter who it was.

So the day, with its mix of major and minor events, came to a perfect end.

As for the newborn child of the second branch of the family, Old Man Ye named him according to the family hierarchy, calling him Ye Wenyuan.

It wasn't until the afternoon that Ye Jiu saw how Old Man Ye was groveling in front of Mrs. He, that he learned the married couple from the Ye elder daughter's family had also come that day.

Though the household had many servants, all were busy with chores, and on top of that, there were numerous guests. The Ye elder daughter seldom returned home, and no servants recognized her, which was why no one had reported their arrival.

However, Mrs. He ultimately didn't drive them away.

After all, it was a day of celebration. One Zhao Family had already been driven out, and if the Wang Family was forced out as well, it would look to others as if the household were being too overbearing.

Mrs. He wasn't a completely witless old lady, ready to ignore her family's reputation.

After dinner, Ye Wenyu found Ye Jiu, "Aunt, I learned to ride a horse in the past few days."

"Oh? How is it going?" Though Ye Wenyu was a man of few words, he was genuinely hardworking and aspiring, truly not the kind of child one would expect from parents like Zhao Shi and Ye Gaoshui.

"I can ride now," Ye Wenyu said with a simple smile, looking somewhat embarrassedly at Ye Jiu, "There's just one more thing I would like to ask of you, aunt."

"Speak up, what is it? I'm your aunt, why stand on ceremony? There's no need for pleasantries," scolded Ye Jiu.

"There are several horses raised in the stables behind the house, aunt... Could you perhaps gift me one?" As he spoke these words, Ye Wenyu's face turned red.

Ye Jiu was slightly surprised, "Whichever one you like, go and choose. You're almost a grown man now; it's rare to have a preference."

Feeling suddenly guilty yet resolute in his tone, Ye Wenyu said, "Thank you, aunt."

When Ye Wenyu left, guilt filled the corners of his eyes, a look Ye Jiu unfortunately didn't see.
