Chaotic Martial Arts: I Have Too Many Brothers

Chapter 76 Whoever's got their eye on it, I'll break their legs.

"?"

Lei Yan, who had just been confronting Lei Yushan, looked over with a strange expression after hearing these words.

In such a feudal era, Lei Yan had heard countless times about the Three Obediences and Four Virtues since childhood, but this was the first time she had heard of Ye Tian allowing women to freely choose their own hearts.

Ye Tian didn't care that much.

Instead, they looked at Lei Yushan with curiosity.

"I haven't had a chance to ask who this gentleman is?"

Although Lei Yan's identity is unknown, judging from the confrontation between Lei Yushan and the other party just now, he is obviously not an ordinary servant.

"Ahem!"

Although Lei Yan's words displeased Lei Yushan, now was not the time to consider such matters.

He cleared his throat.

Lei Yushan then began to introduce Ye Tian.

"It was my oversight. Let me introduce you, my dear nephew. This is my daughter, Lei Yan."

Done.

He also took the opportunity to introduce Ye Tian to Lei Yan.

"This is the Jade Prince Ye Tian that I've been mentioning to you."

Lei Yan didn't know any proper etiquette for young ladies. Instead, she made a fist-and-palm gesture to Ye Tian, ​​like a martial arts practitioner greeting him.

"..."

Lei Yushan's face darkened again upon seeing this.

You didn't remember a single thing I told you before.

Ye Tian didn't think anything of it; instead, he couldn't help but laugh and made a fist-and-palm gesture in return.

"Miss Lei has quite the air of a heroine."

"Yeah?"

Lei Yan's eyes lit up; this kind of praise was exactly what Lei Yan wanted to hear.

Ye Tian smiled silently.

His thoughts raced. Lei Yan's presence here was clearly arranged by Lei Yushan. The reason for doing so was not hard to guess.

"They've really gone all out."

Ye Tian glanced at Lei Yushan, who was beaming with smiles beside him, and his expression was knowing.

Would they really go to such lengths to win me over?

"It's getting late, nephew, why don't you stay for a meal? I'll have the servants prepare it right away. Yan'er, you'll be in charge of entertaining your nephew."

After saying that, he left without giving Ye Tian or Lei Yan a chance to refuse.

As for Mei Yongning, who came with Ye Tian, ​​he also silently took a step back. He had obviously guessed Lei Yushan's purpose and did not want to disturb his elder brother's good deed.

For a moment, only Ye Tian and Lei Yan remained around.

"..."

Lei Yan's gaze was complicated. It wasn't that she disliked Ye Tian; at least, Lei Yan's first impression of Ye Tian was indeed quite good.

Lei Yan felt very uncomfortable with Lei Yushan's behavior. Did he really want to get married so easily? Lei Yan didn't like the feeling of having everything arranged for her and being unable to control her own destiny.

"You can probably guess what my father's purpose is."

After a moment of silence, Lei Yan suddenly looked up at Ye Tian.

"I can guess a little."

There's no point in hiding it or pretending not to know at this point.

Although I'm not short of money right now, Lei's Money Shop can still bring me some convenience. After all, it's not my own money, so I don't feel the least pain when using it.

"And what are your thoughts?"

Seeing that Ye Tian showed no emotional fluctuation, Lei Yan became unconvinced. What, did he look down on her?

"Miss Lei has someone she likes?"

After tilting his head and scrutinizing Lei Yan for a while, Ye Tian suddenly asked a question.

Lei Yan was surprised that Ye Tian would ask such a question, and she quickly retorted.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Of course I didn't."

"It doesn't matter if they do. Since they're mine, I'll break the legs of anyone who dares to covet them."

It's clear that Lei Yan has a strong personality.

Dealing with this kind of woman, simply trying to please her won't work. On the contrary, being a little more assertive will yield unexpected results.

not to mention.

Ye Tian had no intention of being a sycophant at all.

"you..."

Before Lei Yan could speak, Ye Tian continued.

"Lei Kee Money Exchange needs me, and for me, Lei Kee Money Exchange is also a good help. I have no reason to refuse."

Ye Tian spoke calmly, as if in his view, feelings were completely irrelevant, and only interests mattered.

"..."

This assertiveness caused Lei Yan to momentarily lose her composure.

His calm remarks suggested that, in the other party's eyes, only interests mattered and that he himself was completely unimportant.

"You're a little different from what's been said about you."

You'll see many more different things in the future.

Ye Tian did not offer any further explanation.

Instead, they began to think that perhaps they could take this opportunity to gradually erode Lei's Money Shop. In this day and age, merchants do not have a high status, but money is a very important thing.

Lei Yan was even more indignant at his calm demeanor.

Why are you talking as if I'm definitely going to marry you? But Lei Yan didn't say that; instead, she started talking about other things.

"What if I said I like wielding swords?"

These days, few men would like a woman to wield swords and brandish weapons in public.

"I own several blacksmith shops."

"What?"

This unexpected answer surprised Lei Yan.

Ye Tian continued speaking without any concern.

"I own several blacksmith shops. If you have any particular weapon you like, I can have them forge it for you."

"..."

After a moment of silence, Lei Yan tentatively asked a question.

"Any kind of weapon is acceptable?"

With a hint of anticipation in her eyes, it seemed that Lei Yan genuinely enjoyed tinkering with this kind of weapon.

"That's just how it is."

Ye Tian smiled.

In Ye Tian's view, it was not a problem at all for the woman to enjoy wielding swords and knives.

,,,

After Lei Yushan returned.

What they saw was Ye Tian and Lei Yan having a pleasant conversation, and their smiles instantly became much more relieved.

"Ahem, it seems you two are having a good chat."

He cleared his throat and walked over with a smile.

"Since everything is ready, why don't you stay for a meal before you leave, my dear nephew?"

Lei Yan, who was somewhat reluctant just now, is now hoping that Ye Tian will stay.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Uncle."

"It's alright, it's alright."

Lei Yushan smiled and waved his hand.

Although the food at Lei Mansion looked exquisite, the taste was only average. After all, there were only so many kinds of seasonings available these days, so it wasn't very realistic to make something fancy out of it.

Anyway, Lei Yushan seemed to enjoy it.

After drinking a glass of wine, Lei Yushan began to probe his purpose for the day.

"I see that my nephew is about twenty years old. Is he/she married?"

Lei Yan, who was standing to the side, paused in her drinking motion upon hearing this and subconsciously glanced over out of the corner of her eye.

"My parents died early, and I have never been married."

In those days when marriages were arranged by parents and matchmakers, people usually got married through introductions from others.

"I see, that's such a pity."

When Ye Tian said that his parents had died early, Lei Yushan looked regretful, but when he heard Ye Tian say that he was not married, Lei Yushan couldn't help but smile.

"Ahem!"

"Speaking of which, my daughter is also like that. She's wild and loves to practice swordsmanship all the time, and she's still unmarried."

"Just a few days ago, he secretly ran away and joined a place called Yueshan Sect, but he couldn't even get a new set of clothes."
