Family Has a Concubine

Chapter 209: Eyeing on (Part 2)

The Miao family was very angry, but the fact that the family's ugliness cannot be put on the table, and the scandal of her natal family is even more out of the question, now that someone is trying to smooth things over, she ran away with a livid face, as if fleeing from Luo Shi.

Mrs. Zhuang Guohou watched Miao Shi and Luo Shi leave, felt guilty, turned around and said to Deng Shi: "Oh, sister Deng, you..."

Mrs. Zhuang Guohou has a good relationship with the Deng family, and her relationship with the Miao family is not bad.

"What's wrong with me?" Deng glared at her angrily.

The Meng family is not as big as Zhuang Guohou's family, and the Deng family usually flatters Madam Zhuang Guohou, but this time the Deng family is really angry.

"That Ye family, what a broken household, you actually want to tell my family Xin'er?" Deng said angrily, "This Ye family's family has corrupt morals, and they cut officials and nobles. They are the laughingstock of Beijing. Such a family ...Could it be that our Meng family is so unbearable in the eyes of my sister? How dare you talk about the daughter of this kind of family!"

"This..." Mrs. Zhuang Guohou's face turned green and white: "The family doesn't have a lot of dirty things... That Mr. Ye is really ugly, but I watched Miss Ling grow up! You can see Those who grew up together, regardless of appearance or character, are all first-class."

"Hehe, Miss Ye is so nice, then our family really can't match her!" Mrs. Deng snorted coldly, and walked away.

"Sister Deng..." Mrs. Zhuang Guohou only felt that she was not human inside and out.

The mother-in-law behind her said: "Ma'am... The worst thing you did was to say kiss in front of two people! And you mentioned it in front of so many wives! It would be great if it could be done, but it can't be done now... This What will Miss Ye do in the future?"

Mrs. Zhuang Guohou's face froze when she heard this, and said in a low voice: "In my opinion, Meng Xin really can't match Ye Lingjiao in terms of character and appearance! If it wasn't for the sudden defeat of the Ye family, there would be so many troubles." It's a joke, I wouldn't tell Meng Xin about her at all. I think it's a good marriage, and I thought they would be willing if I told her about it! Where did I think...it's all my quick talk..."

"Ma'am, don't be reckless in the future." said the mother-in-law behind her.

Mrs. Zhuang Guohou also regretted secretly, she was ashamed, and turned to leave.

In the cave on the rockery below, Ye Lingjiao was sitting on the ground with red eye circles, not saying a word.

Ye Tangcai felt uncomfortable and guilty: "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry."

"What does it have to do with you?" Ye Lingjiao smiled wryly, "This is the crime committed by Ye Chengde's shameless mother and son. Ever since they started committing crimes, scandals have been expected. You can't bear to keep your family's reputation." with them?"

"There will always be a good marriage." Ye Tangcai sighed slightly.

"What a good marriage." Ye Lingjiao smiled faintly, her eye circles became redder: "Since my cousin died... I don't want to marry anyone. And... the matter of your mother scares me. What should I do when I encounter this kind of thing? So after thinking about it, it’s good to be at home. Although the family is in decline now, there is no shortage of food and clothing.”

"Nonsense, you must marry someone." Ye Tangcai said, "Sometimes, fate is hard to say, maybe you will meet someone you like when you turn around."

Ye Lingjiao looked up at her: "Then, do you like this one now?"

Ye Tangcai was taken aback, her face turned slightly hot, and then she snorted softly, "I don't like it."

Ye Lingjiao snorted and laughed: "It's a lie."

"I'm not lying." Ye Tang was annoyed, "It's hot here, let's go out."

Ye Lingjiao shook her head: "Just now... Madam Zhuang Guohou proclaimed her marriage in front of everyone. With so many people present in the pavilion, it will spread around later. I don't want to go out and be laughed at."

"Then, I'll accompany you." Ye Tangcai said and sat down.

...

After leaving the Green Garden, Miao Shi, Luo Shi and Ye Weicai didn't go to the stage, they were so ashamed and annoyed that they didn't want to meet people, so after thinking about it, they went to Ye Licai's yard.

After walking for a while, I arrived at Ye Licai's courtyard. In the living room, I saw Mrs. Sun laughing amusedly with the child in her arms, and looked up at Mrs. Miao: "Didn't the old lady and younger siblings go out for a stroll?"

Luo Shi smiled stiffly and said, "I'm tired from shopping, so come here to sit down. By the way, where is Sister Li?"

"Go outside to breathe." Sun said.

Several people sat down, Miao's face was expressionless, and Luo's took the child and teased for a while.

At this time, the splint curtains outside where the flowers were blooming and rich were opened, and Ye Licai walked in with a somewhat sharp little face. Before giving birth, she had a round figure, but after giving birth, she lost weight very quickly.

Because Chu Yunpan won the first prize, she was so angry that she couldn't eat, couldn't sleep well, and lost more than 20 catties, even thinner than before. A soft oval face, I don't know if it's because she has lost weight or because she is pulling her face, it has become a little mean.

Ye Licai walked in thumpingly, seeing Miao Shi, Luo Shi and Ye Weicai sitting here, her small face sank, and she said angrily, "I don't know how it was rumored outside, but it was said that my aunt Xiao misses my cousin Meng's family, Then he said that our Ye family was demoted from officials and nobles, what kind of wives became concubines, concubines became wives, and the skills of seducing men in brothels, I don’t know how embarrassing! I almost lost my face.”

As he spoke, his eyes turned red. Today is her son's full moon feast, she should be in a beautiful state, like the stars are holding the moon.

Unexpectedly, when Ye Tangcai, the wife of the No. 1 Scholar, came, she was robbed of the limelight. Now because of Ye Lingjiao's incident, everyone brought up the scandal of the Ye family, and even her, the daughter of the Ye family, was ashamed.

Ye Licai's implying reproach made Miao and Luo's faces change.

Mrs. Miao laughed even more angrily: "Sister Li, why are you so angry? What happened to you last year was so ugly, such as eloping with your brother-in-law, and using stones as a dowry, we have never said a harsh word to you, but once It's a big fire!"

Ye Licai and Sun Shi choked, Ye Licai's face flushed red, "squeaked" before saying: "I...I'm just angry at those people who said that sister-in-law is wrong."

Mrs. Miao hehe: "I can't be angry too. You are married now, and you know it's not good to embarrass your natal family, right?"

Ye Licai walked to the couch and sat down with a sullen face and said nothing. Indeed, her natal family is her reliance, and now that her natal family has become a dilapidated household, she also feels that she can't hold her head up.

"You can be regarded as the head of the family now. You will mostly walk outside in the future. I will also pay attention to your sister-in-law and help find a good marriage. In this way, you will look better, won't you?" Miao's eyes were full The state of prayer.

This kind of matter should be asked in front of Meng Shi. But just now, she had a quarrel with Meng's natal sister-in-law, and Ye Licai also said that Ye Lingjiao misses Meng Xin. No matter how thick-skinned the Miao family is, it is hard to beg the Meng family again.

After thinking for a while, Miao said again: "You have few brothers and sisters, and your sister-in-law is not many years older than you. If she gets married well, she will be able to support each other with you."

Ye Licai frowned, but nodded in agreement: "Grandmother is right."

A smile appeared on Miao's face.

At this moment, the child started crying, and Sun hurriedly hugged the child: "Maybe I'm hungry."

"Let me feed it! It's so painful." The Zhang family naturally invited a nanny, but Ye Li had enough milk and her swelling was so painful, so she could feed herself if she could.

Ye Licai hugged the child, then turned and walked to the bedroom.

Mrs. Sun ate her melon seeds: "Mother, what happened to Ling's sister? Why did it spread so badly?"

Miao's complexion was not good. Nanny Qian behind Miao said: "Someone is going to be a matchmaker...Maybe he speaks quickly, accidentally says it out, and then it gets spread around, and we have no intention of talking to the Meng family." He didn't want to say more.

Mrs. Sun yelled, "How could this be..."

Mrs. Miao heheed twice, she really didn't want to say more, so she stood up, "I don't know where Sister Ling is, I'll go and look for her."

After speaking, Miao Shi and Luo Shi went out with Ye Weicai.

Sun looked at the direction in which they disappeared, sneered, and walked towards the bedroom.

Ye Licai was sitting on the Babu bed, holding and feeding the baby, raised her head and said coldly, "Going away?"

"They don't have the face to spare." Mrs. Sun took a seat on a embroidered pier opposite Ye Licai, and sneered: "Your dowry last year..." She said with a livid face, and she lost all the dowry! But he couldn't help but ask, "Didn't we borrow the dowry from your sister-in-law when we got into trouble with the old man?"

Thinking of the past, Ye Licai secretly angered Sun for losing all her dowry, but thinking of the scene at that time, her eyes gloated.

"At that time we said that when you marry into the Zhang family, you will be able to help your sister-in-law in the future. But your sister-in-law gave me a slap in the face and said with a smile: 'I should marry a beggar? I need it. The Zhang family’s help? It’s time for me to get married, so I have to ask for food from the Zhang family?’”

While talking, she imitated what Ye Lingjiao said back then, and clicked her tongue twice: "It was so loud at the time, and I didn't need our help. Now, it's worse than marrying into the Miao family and being unstable. Why don't you just marry?" You can't get married. Just wait and see, there will always be retribution."

Hearing this, Ye Licai's tense expression loosened a little: "Yes, those shameless scum who trampled on us will definitely be punished! Now let's start with the young girl..."

And then Ye Tangcai! One by one, there will be retribution.

In the past, Ye Lingjiao's marriage was stable and her fiancé was very enviable, but in the end... who would have expected such a scandal to happen. It was unexpected! It's an even uglier scandal than giving birth to a concubine before marriage.

Therefore, life is always full of surprises.

Thinking of this, she finally freed herself from the vortex of jealousy, and ignited a glimmer of hope.

...

Miao Shi and Luo Shi left Ye Licai's house and went all the way to the quiet Xihua Garden.

Mrs. Miao said: "That Mrs. Deng said just now, let the uncle find a Jinshi? This is a good idea."

"Yes." Luo Shi nodded, and said with a smile: "The eldest son-in-law has also entered the officialdom now. Although he is a newcomer, he is the champion and has registered with the emperor. If he acts as a matchmaker, maybe he can find some good people. .”

Miao's eyes lit up: "Yes."

After a while, I had lunch and set it up near the stage over there.

Ye Tangcai and Ye Lingjiao also arrived, and sat down with Miao and the others.

After dinner, Luo Shi pushed Ye Lingjiao away, and Miao Shi took Ye Tangcai's hand and said, "Your sister-in-law is not young anymore. Your husband-in-law is walking in the officialdom again, let him look for it, is there any?" Appropriate Jinshi of the same discipline. It doesn’t matter if you are poor, it doesn’t matter if you come from a poor family, and there is no limit to the number of rankings, as long as you have a good character.”

Mrs. Miao thought in her heart that there are very few young scholars in the new science division, if only they can find one with a good character. Generally, those fellow Jinshis with poor family backgrounds can only be petty officials.

Although their Ye family has fallen, they are still nobles anyway, and they still have some contacts and money. Such a Jinshi is likely to be willing. And it was introduced by Chu Yunpan, the No. 1 scholar. Although his daughter is not as good as Ye Tangcai, she is also an extremely beautiful woman, so she might immediately nod her head.

"Okay. I'll let him pay more attention." Ye Tangcai woke up after hearing that she was looking for someone for Ye Lingjiao.

After sitting for a while, everyone went home.

Back at Qiongmingxuan, Ye Tangcai wanted to talk to Chu Yunpan about it, but Chu Yunpan went out instead. Ye Tangcai was very depressed.

Ye Tangcai fell asleep at night, but Chu Yunpan hadn't come back yet.

Early the next morning, he went out to the office again.

Ye Tangcai sat on the Arhat's bed, curling her lips anxiously.

"Girl, what are you in a hurry for?" Qiuju came over with tea.

"Why are you not in a hurry?" Ye Tangcai sighed slightly, "Young Scholars are rare in the first place. If you are not married, you will be admitted to Jinshi, and with this status, you will talk about marriage. So, we have to start as soon as possible. Yes Now, go and call Yuyang over."

"Okay." Qiuju turned around and ran out.

When Yu Yang came over, Ye Tangcai told her what to say, and Yu Yang went out.

The Hanlin Academy is in the palace, and each official can bring a servant into the palace to rest outside the courtyard, and there is a special channel for the servants to send messages.

In the Imperial Academy, Chu Yunpan was sitting there writing notes.

"Yunpan." Chen Zhiheng leaned over, holding a small food box in his hand.

As soon as it was opened, there was a strange smell, and the corner of Chu Yunpan's mouth twitched: "What is this?"

"My mother made fermented bean curd and pickled papaya, do you want to eat it? Uncle Zhao, would you like a piece?" Chen Zhiheng said, looking at Zhao Fanxu who was sitting not far away.

Chu Yunpan and Zhao Fanxu immediately refused: "No!"

"Uh...Okay! I'll eat it myself. I don't want to share it with you!" He said with a soft snort, and ran back to his seat.

Chu Yunpan picked up his pen and began to write.

At this time, Yu Han walked in and said in a low voice, "Third Lord."

"En." Chu Yunpan responded lightly.

"I just received two messages, one from King Liang, and one from Third Mistress, which one do you want to hear?" Yu Han said.

Chu Yunpan rolled his eyes at him: "Don't you all want to talk? What do you choose? Talk!"

"His Royal Highness Liang Wang said, seeing that Yao Li is about to be taken down, if our people can join, then the doctor's position will be vacant. It's too late to say this now, but we are short of manpower, you can find some capable ones." People come." Yu Han said.

Chu Yunpan said, "Next."

"The third grandma said that Miss Ling is worried about getting married, so she asked the third master to help her find someone among the new jinshi. There are only two conditions, that is, good character and good looks." Yu Han turned around and left after finishing speaking.

Chu Yunpan raised his eyebrows, turned around unconsciously, and saw Xinke Tanhua Lang staring at the pickled papaya made by his mother and giggling, and then Chu Yunpan smiled too.
