Ye Changlin swung his sleeves and sat down huffily on the armchair, feeling as though his lifespan had been cut in half today.
With a cold face, Ye Jinmo looked at the four male actors kneeling on the ground, who had their upper bodies bare and their heads lowered the entire time.
“Speak!”
The four male actors cried and said, “Lord, usually Madam makes us serve both her and the Fifth Young Lady together.”
“We were really bought by Madam from the Xiongfeng Pavilion.”
“Lord only needs to send someone to ask the brothel keeper of Xiongfeng Pavilion, and you will know everything.”
Ye Changlin clutched his chest as he sat on the armchair, pointing a trembling finger at Chen-shi and Ye Mengzhi.
“An unfortunate family, an unfortunate family…”
“Come! Prepare the sedan chair, this official is going to the Court of Judicial Review to cry grievance!”
Compared to losing his head, face and pride no longer mattered.
Ye Changlin closed his eyes, hoping that the Emperor would spare his life and spare the Ye Residence once, seeing how pitiful he was for being given so many green hats and having his late wife murdered.
“No, Father, you cannot go!” Ye Mengzhi wept like a pear blossom bathed in rain, looking deeply pitiable.
Ye Jinmo spoke coldly, “Come, lock the Fourth Young Lady in the woodshed.”
“Father, you cannot go to the Court of Judicial Review! Do you really want to completely throw away the face of our Ye Residence?”
“Father…”
Two servants stepped forward and pinned Ye Mengzhi down.
【Ah, wait, wait…】
Little Chuchu stood in front of Ye Mengzhi with a smile. Holding the socks she had just taken off and rolling them into a ball, she pinched Ye Mengzhi’s jaw and stuffed the smelly socks inside.
【Hehe, if this lady knew these socks would have this use today, I should have worn them for ten days or half a month without washing.】
Zhazha: 【Little Chuchu, not washing your feet for ten days or half a month will cause athlete’s foot.】
Ye Chuchu stuffed her other sock into Chen-shi’s mouth.
【True, this young lady’s socks are still too fragrant. Zhazha, check whose socks are the smelliest here?】
Everyone who could hear Ye Chuchu’s inner thoughts held their breath.
They didn’t dare look at Ye Chuchu, all staring down at their own feet.
Ye Changlin: It’s over. He was so busy yesterday that his head was spinning, and he didn’t wash his feet.
The four male actors: Fortunately, fortunately, Chen-shi selected the four of them last night and even used rose petals to soak their feet.
Suddenly, Zhazha said excitedly: 【Found it, found it! Little Chuchu, it’s your Eldest Brother!】
Ye Changlin: …
Ye Jinmo’s expression fractured instantly.
Ye Chuchu glanced at Ye Jinmo.
【Tall and handsome, heroic and elegant, clad in military uniform, radiating charm—you’re telling me an eldest brother like this has the smelliest socks?】
Little Zhazha: 【Yes, that’s right! Little Chuchu, your eldest brother hasn’t washed his feet for half a month.】
Ye Chuchu: 【Hiss…】
Ye Changlin also cast a disdainful glance at Ye Jinmo. His excellent eldest son was perfect in every way, so how could he be so unclean!
How could anyone not wash their feet?
Ye Chuchu: 【Zhazha, then does my eldest brother have athlete’s foot?】
Little Zhazha: 【He has a little bit of athlete’s foot. Little Chuchu, your eldest brother is actually usually very hygienic.】
【It’s just that he rushed all the way back after winning the war, without changing his clothes or washing his feet, just to come back earlier to see you, his younger sister!】
Ye Chuchu looked at Ye Jinmo with emotion: 【He truly is my good eldest brother!】
Being looked at by Ye Chuchu like this, a trace of embarrassment appeared on Ye Jinmo’s cold face.
He really wanted to promise his sister that no matter how urgent it was in the future, he would wash his feet properly.
But he couldn’t!
His sister’s inner thoughts could be heard, but they could not be responded to.
Ye Chuchu walked over to Ye Jinmo and smiled.
【Good Eldest Brother of Chuchu, lend me your socks that haven’t been washed for half a month.】
Ye Chuchu squatted down and pulled off Ye Jinmo’s shoes.
“Little Sister!”
Smelling the odor coming from his own feet, Ye Jinmo’s face had already turned green.
He wanted to pick Ye Chuchu up.
But Ye Chuchu had already swiftly pulled off both of Ye Jinmo’s socks and ran in front of the pinned-down Chen-shi and Ye Mengzhi.
【Hehe, come on, taste the flavor of my eldest brother’s socks.】
Ye Chuchu stuffed the socks, which were smelly enough to make everyone present light-headed, into the mouths of the two women.
“Wuuu…”
“Wuuu…”
Chen-shi and Ye Mengzhi glared at Ye Chuchu with rage while letting out muffled “wuuu” sounds.
Perhaps because Ye Jinmo’s socks were too smelly, Chen-shi and Ye Mengzhi’s thrashing didn’t last even thirty seconds before both lay on the ground rolling their eyes.
Ye Changlin pinched his nose, “Come, quickly drag these two down.”
“And bring a basin of foot-washing water for the Eldest Young Master!”
It was too smelly!
Ye Changlin was also about to roll his eyes from the stench.
Little Zhazha: 【Little Chuchu, your eldest brother’s foot odor is enough to poison a fish to death. Why don’t you have any reaction?】
Ye Chuchu: 【This stench is my eldest brother’s love for me. With such overflowing love, I cannot be ungrateful and despise it.】
【Little Zhazha, I’ll help Eldest Brother wash his feet in a moment. If I get knocked out by the stench, remember to wake me up.】
【I still want to watch the great drama of my cuckolded father kneeling miserably in the execution hall, furiously denouncing his lovely wife for hiding male actors in her room.】
Little Zhazha: 【Alright, Little Chuchu, the points are enough. You can exchange for the Voice Pill in the mall.】
Ye Chuchu looked top-heavy, clearly having inhaled too much toxic gas and looking like she was about to faint.
Ye Chuchu: 【Little Zhazha, after exchanging for the Voice Pill, are there any spare points left to exchange for ointment to treat athlete’s foot?】
Little Zhazha: 【Let me see.】
【Little Chuchu, we can’t afford the expensive ones. There is only Daktarin brand athlete’s foot cream available for exchange here.】
Ye Chuchu: 【Then Daktarin it is. Quick, hurry!】
System Voice: 【Ding-dong! Congratulations to the host, Daktarin athlete’s foot cream exchange successful.】
At this moment, a servant had already brought a basin of water before Ye Jinmo.
Ye Jinmo put his feet into the footbasin.
How comfortable!
He hadn’t washed his feet for half a month.
As for his younger sister’s inner thoughts, he hypnotized himself: Can’t hear it, can’t hear it, nobody can hear it.
The servant changed the water twice before Ye Jinmo finally washed his feet completely clean.
Ye Chuchu took out the Daktarin brand athlete’s foot cream, squatted down in front of Ye Jinmo, opened the ointment, and wanted to help Ye Jinmo apply it.
Right at this moment, Wufeng walked inside.
Smelling the odor in the air, Wufeng frowned, but he didn’t stop his steps and walked straight to Ye Jinmo.
Seeing the Third Young Lady squatting in front of his General, he was perplexed.
“General, Miss Hongdou has already been brought back to the residence.”
Ye Jinmo nodded, “Pass down the order to ensure she is served well.”
Wufeng: “Yes, General!”
Ye Jinmo picked up Ye Chuchu, who was squatting in front of him, and took the ointment from her hand.
Ye Jinmo pretended to look at the words on the Daktarin athlete’s foot cream for a good while before saying to Ye Chuchu with a smile, “So this is athlete’s foot cream. Little Sister really is Brother’s caring little padded jacket.”
“Wufeng, come over and apply the medicine for this General.”
He also knew his feet were very smelly, so he couldn’t let his sister touch them.
Wufeng: “Yes!”
Wufeng thought to himself: This athlete’s foot cream is truly special, it actually has a floral fragrance. My feet haven’t been washed for half a month either, I really want to apply this ointment after washing them…
Outside, a servant ran in hurriedly, “Master, the sedan chair is ready!”
Ye Changlin stood up, swung his wide sleeves, and wore an expression of facing death with resolve.
“This official shall go cry grievance right now!”
He shouted extremely loudly, and everyone in the room looked at him.
Master was full of imposing momentum!
