Chapter 901: Five Model 891 weapons (5)

Ye Shaohua, now that she was married, belonged to the Wang Residence for the rest of her life. It would help Ye Shaohua if the lord knew about her capabilities.

The wet nurse believed that even if Ye Shaohua could not restore the Ye Family to its former glory, she would not fare too poorly.

What the Wang Dynasty currently lacked the most was a Divine Weapon.

Back when she was with the lady, the lady had mentioned to the wet nurse that the most intricate weapon among those of the Ye Family was the Linglong Lock, and during the Ye Family’s most prosperous times, whoever could forge the Linglong Lock would take charge of the Ye Family.

Although Ye Shaohua’s father could forge the Linglong Lock, he was twenty-one years old by the time he succeeded, while Ye Shaohua was only eighteen now.

If she could forge the Linglong Lock, she would surely be able to create a Divine Weapon within five years.

By then, not to mention becoming the principal wife, even obtaining the title as a concubine wouldn’t be out of the question.

That’s why the wet nurse wanted to report the good news to the lord at the first opportunity.

"Wet nurse, didn’t you say my uncle is here? I want to show the sword I’ve made to my uncle!" Ye Shaohua interrupted the wet nurse directly.

Cheng Yan, in truth, didn’t care about what exactly Ye Shaohua had done.

In his eyes, all of Ye Shaohua’s movements should be within his control, he was simply becoming impatient and had asked casually.

Hearing Ye Shaohua’s words, he glanced at her without showing much on his face, yet he was shaking his head internally.

The method of sword forging proposed by Ye Shaohua was indeed better than that of an ordinary craftsman, but for the intended heir of the Ye Family, what she suggested was far too common.

After so many years with Ye Shaohua’s father, there had been no progress, and thinking of this, Cheng Yan naturally harbored contempt for Ye Shaohua.

However, the one truly talented was being tormented by fate.

Thinking this, Cheng Yan’s expression darkened and he turned to leave right away.

He had no interest in whatever the wet nurse had left unsaid.

The group headed straight for the Shen Family.

Cheng Yan rode ahead on horseback, while Ye Shaohua sat in a carriage behind. Going to the Shen Family today, Cheng Yan was not as hard on Ye Shaohua.

After all, the prestige of the grand Wang Residence still had to be maintained.

The wet nurse climbed into the carriage behind Ye Shaohua, "Miss, why didn’t you let me finish speaking just now? Don’t you know that if the lord knew you could forge the Linglong Lock, your position in the Wang Residence would improve manyfold!"

Not to mention that the servants in the Wang Residence wouldn’t give her a hard time anymore, even the Wang’s wife would afford Ye Shaohua some respect.

Ye Shaohua couldn’t possibly reveal the truth to the wet nurse, she simply shook her head, "Wet nurse, I know what I am doing."

The wet nurse knew that Ye Shaohua’s personality had changed somewhat recently.

Hearing what Ye Shaohua said, she opened her mouth but in the end, said nothing.

Half an hour later, they arrived at the Shen Family.

Shen Jiran’s father and mother had been waiting by the door. Shen Jiran was not there, and Ye Shaohua did not see Ye Yanyu. Of course, Cheng Yan wouldn’t wait for Ye Shaohua. He must have gone inside to look for Shen Jiran.

Shen Jiran’s father was visibly taken aback when he saw Ye Shaohua.

Shen Jiran’s mother’s fingers trembled as she touched Ye Shaohua’s face, "She’s so similar... so very similar... You and Yaoyue are like two peas from the same pod!"

Shen Yaoyue was the original owner’s birth mother.

"Come in quickly," Shen Jiran’s father’s heart ached when he saw the clothes Ye Shaohua was wearing, "Tell your uncle about how you’ve been these past five years."

Shen Jiran’s father and Shen Yaoyue had also lost their parents early on, and he had built up the family business all by himself. When Shen Yaoyue married off, it was truly a grand occasion with extensive wedding festivities.

Lady Shen married into the Shen Family before they had made their fortunes, and when Father Shen was away on business, the household consisted only of Lady Shen and her dependant, Shen Yaoyue. Lady Shen treated Shen Yaoyue as if she were her own younger sister.

After the death of Father Ye and Shen Yaoyue, Lady Shen fell ill for a month, only beginning to recover after Ye Yanyu arrived.

Seeing Ye Shaohua, who bore a striking resemblance to Shen Yaoyue, both of them were extremely emotional.

"Where is the young master?" The moment Father Shen entered, he ordered someone to find Shen Jiran. "Quickly, have him come out and meet his cousin Shaohua!"

"Master, the young master isn’t feeling well and will not be coming out to meet guests," the butler replied, bowing his head.

The nurse looked at the butler with surprise.

Ye Shaohua glanced over and recognized the Shen Family’s butler from her memories; this person used to be the butler of the Ye Residence.

It seemed that this uncle had likely brought over all the people from the Ye Residence.

"What guest? That’s his cousin!" Father Shen slammed his hand down on the table and stood up.

He wanted to scold further, but upon seeing Ye Shaohua, he swallowed his words and a warm smile surfaced on his face, "Shaohua, let your aunt take you to see Yanyu. Your uncle has some matters to deal with first."

Ye Shaohua knew that her uncle must be handling affairs concerning the Wang Residence.

Given this uncle’s affection for the original owner, he probably wouldn’t want his niece to become a concubine in the Wang Residence.

Lady Shen didn’t immediately take Ye Shaohua to see Ye Yanyu; instead, she first brought Ye Shaohua to her own room and had her change into a new brocade dress she had prepared.

However, Ye Shaohua was too thin now; the dress made her look even more delicate, but her spirits seemed much improved.

"It seems I got the size right; this was Yaoyue’s size before she got married," Lady Shen said, her eyes reddening once more.

Then she immediately smiled again and took Ye Shaohua to meet Ye Yanyu.

Unexpectedly, the ailing Shen Jiran and Cheng Yan were both there.

Both had a resemblance, with Ye Shaohua being two years older than Ye Yanyu, who was naturally good-looking.

In the past, their mother Shen Yaoyue had acquired the monicker of the beauty that moved the Imperial City, but Ye Yanyu was still slightly inferior to Shen Yaoyue, in terms of both looks and aura.

Ye Shaohua and Shen Yaoyue had a striking resemblance, especially the aura that Ye Shaohua emitted was even more pronounced.

Shen Jiran had a close relationship with his aunt, so when he saw Ye Shaohua, he was momentarily stunned, but it was just for a moment before he quickly regained his composure.

Ye Shaohua had been traveling with Father Ye since she was young and didn’t have as deep a connection with Ye Yanyu as sisters who were closer in relationship might have had.

Ye Yanyu was extremely surprised to see Ye Shaohua, "Sister? Where have you been these years?"

She clasped hands with Ye Shaohua and chatted animatedly with her.

Seeing the deep bond between the sisters, Lady Shen was very pleased. She gave them time to reconnect and then gave Shen Jiran a cold look, signaling him to follow her.

As soon as she touched Ye Yanyu’s hand, Ye Shaohua knew that the foundation of Ye Yanyu’s health was ruined, and it would be difficult to cure with the medical skills of the time.

But Ye Shaohua had a method, albeit a more complicated one.

She had a plan in mind.

"Lady Cousin, Old Ye wants you in the front hall," the butler said softly from outside.

After thanking him, Ye Shaohua went out.

Halfway there, she remembered the sandalwood in Ye Yanyu’s room. The sandalwood itself wasn’t a problem, but given Ye Yanyu’s existing illness, it was having a significant impact on her.

Pausing at the gate, she stopped.

"Lady Cousin appears to be very approachable," the butler’s voice slowly rose. "However, you should also avoid getting too involved with her. She’s been outside for five years and has calluses on her hands. Who knows what she’s been doing all these years—just remember, you must curry favor with the master, the lady, and the young master."
