A life of two souls traveling through time

Chapter 221 An Ge, a talented housekeeper

Li Yunye woke up after three days of coma. He was awakened by a nightmare. The death of his father and Uncle Fang was still vivid in his mind, and it became an unforgettable picture in his mind. In just three days, his body became thinner, his face was pale and haggard, and his originally delicate and tender eyebrows were still shrouded in grief and dimmed.

The carriage was shaking. Li Yunye wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and wanted to get up, but found that he had no strength at all. His knees were still aching like needles from time to time. Even though he was covered with a warm lamb blanket and fur coat, he still felt cold all over, as if he was in an ice cellar.

An Ge, who was sitting by the door, was exhausted from not getting enough sleep due to the worries and concerns over the past three days. At this time, Master Zeng was driving the carriage outside, which made him feel at ease. So he dozed off unconsciously due to the shaking of the carriage, but he did not dare to sleep too deeply because he was afraid that Master Zeng would wake up at any time.

"Ahem... Ange..." Li Yunye gradually woke up and called out to Ange subconsciously when he saw her, but the hoarse voice startled him.

"Young Master, you're awake!" Hearing the Young Master's voice calling him in a daze, Ange hurriedly opened his eyes and saw that the Young Master had woken up. His tired eyes were inadvertently covered with a layer of mist.

"Where are we?" Li Yunye sat up with the help of Ange. He shook his bloodless lips and asked weakly.

"We have left Jicheng and will be able to return to Qile City soon." Seeing that the young master was still shivering all over, Ange took off her thick clothes and covered him with them, and took out the warm porridge, but Li Yunye had no appetite and only drank two sips of hot water.

The cold that Li Yunye suffered from the snow had penetrated into his bones, and the grief made the situation even worse. Although Ange had consulted a doctor three days ago and given him two doses of medicine, it was of no avail. So he decided to hurry back to Qile City to see Doctor Sun.

"Father...Father's body..." Upon hearing that they were about to leave Jicheng, Li Yunye suddenly frowned, looked at Ange nervously, and tears welled up in his eyes again.

"Don't worry, sir. The bodies of the master, the butler, and the two coachmen will be returning to Qile City with us." Before the young master could finish his excited words, Ange hurriedly tried to comfort him.

"Is it Manager Ni from Jicheng who will accompany us back?" Li Yunye was relieved after hearing Ange's words. He also thought that since they were in Jicheng, Ange would definitely ask Manager Ni in Jicheng for help. Then he asked, "Have you sent a message to Brother Muliang?"

"Sir, Ange has not informed anyone about this, including Shopkeeper Ni in Jicheng. We did not go to Jicheng, but chose to travel through the mountains. As for Master Muliang, Ange has asked An Yun to go to Liangdu in person to inform him. By now, Master Muliang should be heading to Qile City."

Thinking that he would soon be able to see Brother Mu Liang, Li Yunye's confused and helpless heart instantly calmed down. Then he looked at Ange puzzledly and asked, "Since we are in Jicheng, why didn't you notify Manager Ni?"

"The master is in trouble, Jiangnan Ming Li may face another test. We must act carefully now. Ange currently only knows Master Mu Liang and Shopkeeper Yuan, and it is difficult for her to know the other four shopkeepers. We should wait until Master Mu Liang comes back before making any decisions."

"Well, you are more thoughtful. I am far inferior to you." Li Yunye looked at An Ge, who was calm and thoughtful at such a young age. He also thought of himself as being weak and incompetent and only knew how to cry, which was of no use at all. Now he was suffering in this body. He suddenly felt ashamed of himself.

"Young master, don't underestimate yourself. You have a great responsibility to shoulder. How can An Ge be compared with you? Although the master is gone, the famous Li family in Jiangnan is still here. You must not be depressed at this time. For the master's last wish, for your wife, and for the entire Li family, you have to cheer up." Although An Ge understood that the young master was physically and mentally exhausted at this time, the current situation was serious and did not allow the young master to be decadent. He must get out of his grief as soon as possible and shoulder the important responsibility of being the famous Li family in Jiangnan.

"Thank you, Ange..." Ange's comfort and encouragement also gave Li Yunye courage. He nodded solemnly. He wanted to thank her and also apologize for causing Ange to be expelled from the house because of him. But the words couldn't come out of his mouth. At the same time, a sneer came from outside the car.

"That's Master Zeng, Miss Xuanyu's friend. He and Miss Xuanyu rescued us that day and avenged the master and the housekeeper. Thanks to Master Zeng's protection, we were able to have such a smooth journey." An Ge saw the panic on the master's face and hurriedly explained. Then he looked at Zeng Si, who was driving the carriage outside with a gloomy face and continued to ask: "Master Zeng, are you tired? Why don't you come in and rest and let An Ge take over?"

During the three days of getting along, although Zeng Si was cold and taciturn, he tried his best to help along the way. He kindly helped drive the carriage and found a place for them to rest in the nearby village every day. An Ge was naturally grateful and guessed that since he was Miss Xuanyu's friend and had such good skills, his identity must be extraordinary.

"No need." Zeng Si refused coldly as usual. He was the third in command of Yanjiapo, so he lowered his status to take the job of driving the carriage because he didn't want to stay in the carriage with Li Yunye. Although he was a bandit, he always kept his promises, not to mention the promise he made to Yanyu. Therefore, no matter how jealous he was of Li Yunye, he had to send him back to Qile City safely.

Li Yunye heard the cold words outside and didn't dare to say anything. Although he should take the initiative to say a few words to Yanyu's friends, he was in no mood to do so because of the cold all over his body and exhaustion.

"Where is Xuanyu?" Li Yunye asked again with concern when Xuanyu was mentioned.

"Miss Xuanyu said she had something important to do and will come to Qile City to visit the young master in a while." Ange replied truthfully. Miss Xuanyu's identity was mysterious, but her help in this critical moment and her concern for the young master put Ange, who was suspicious at first, at ease. No matter who Miss Xuanyu was, he was sure that she would not harm the young master.

Zeng Si, who was outside the car, froze when she heard An Ge's words. She was actually going to come to Qile City to see him in person? Why was she still obsessed with it when she knew there would be no result? But then Zeng Si chuckled again. It was like a pot calling the kettle black when you are fifty steps away. Wasn't he also obsessed with it?

"We're almost at Qile City. Don't we need to notify Manager Yuan in advance?" An Ge's words made Li Yunye nod with relief, and then he asked again.

"Don't worry, sir. When we are almost there, Ange will ask Manager Yuan to go out of the city to pick you up... and take the master back to the Li family."

"What about you? Not going back to the Li family?" Li Yunye looked at Ange nervously again.

"Those two drivers are brothers from the farm. Ange must first send them back to the farm and then return to the Li Mansion."

"Do they have any other family members?" Li Yunye didn't think much about it, just sighed and continued to ask.

"Yes, they all have old people above them and young children below them."

"Give me more compensation, and let the farm take good care of their family."

"Don't worry, sir. Ange will take care of this matter."

Now An Ge has the ability to be a housekeeper, so Li Yunye is naturally confident in his ability to do things. So he didn't say anything more and fell asleep again.
