Family Has a Concubine

Over there, Ye Lingjiao had already been helped out of the car. Looking at the backs of Ye Licai and others going away, her small face sank: "This is the time to do something."

Ye Weicai supported Ye Lingjiao, but she looked worried, she knew that there was a Chu Miaoshu inside, and Ye Tangcai was not pleasing to her eyes all the time, so she would definitely embarrass them soon.

"Let's go." Ye Tangcai smiled slightly.

At this time, a servant girl from the Prince's Mansion had already come forward, leading a few people through the Hanging Flower Gate, and then walked along the cobblestone path.

Passing through a large area of ​​pavilions and pavilions, you will be led to a garden. On the large half-moon gate at the entrance of the garden, there are three gold-plated characters of "Lijing Garden".

A few people stepped into the courtyard, and saw that the courtyard was full of fragrant temples, brocade clothes, and all kinds of jewelry dazzling, but they were the family members of the mansions who were invited to enjoy the flowers today.

In the garden, a chess board was prepared under the porch frame, and a desk case was prepared under the maple flowers not far away. This is for people to write poems. There are also noble ladies sitting together in twos and threes to talk about the world. I don’t know what they are talking about. Giggle happy.

Mrs. Qin came early in the morning with Chu Miaohua, and was sitting in the gazebo beside the rockery, chatting with a group of noble ladies.

In the past, these noble ladies were not willing to talk to the Qin family. Even if Chu Yun made military exploits and became Lord Marquis, others would be more enthusiastic about Ye Tangcai. But now that Chu Miaoshu has become the crown prince's side concubine, these noble ladies immediately began to flatter and curry favor .

Now that the Qin family is surrounded by these noble ladies, she feels as if she has returned to the glorious days before the fall of the Chu family ten years ago.

She was flustered in her heart, and she felt that she was being watched by everyone, so she sat upright, with a decent smile on her face, and ignored the noble ladies around her.

"The set of peonies inlaid with ice and emerald eight yang heads on Mrs. Chu's head is really beautiful. I don't know which shop it was made in." Mrs. Wang said with a smile.

"That's right, it's really beautiful." Mrs. Zhuang Guohou at the side immediately echoed.

I saw Qin smiled faintly, "Is it so beautiful? It's just something from Bazhen Building, it's just ordinary."

Bazhen Building can be ranked among the top five jewelry shops in the capital, but now you are an ordinary shop in front of these noble ladies.

"The things in Bazhen Building are also very good, but this set of masks...I saw it in Bazhen Building last time, but I didn't buy it, because I thought this set of masks didn't look good at the time. But now, wearing it in On Mrs. Chu's head, it gives people a feeling of lifelikeness and brilliance. It really depends on who wears it. Mrs. Chu has a noble temperament. Whoever said that this set of peony inlaid with ice and emerald eight yang heads is just wearing a wooden Hairpins can also be worn to look elegant and noble." Mrs. Wang said with a smile.

Qin's heart was full of elation, and the smile on the corner of her lips was even more complacent. She just likes this kind of feeling of being flattered by others while wearing beautiful clothes.

Only in this way can a sense of superiority be reflected.

They were really happy chatting, and someone from far away shouted: "Mrs. Zhenxihou is here."

"Oh, Madam Zhenxihou!" Some ladies and girls who were sitting in the same gazebo as Mrs. Qin stood up in a group and walked out.

Qin's smile froze when he saw most of the people in the entire gazebo leaving at once.

Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Yong'an Hou and other noble ladies on the side also wanted to stand up and go to the other side, but it seemed too embarrassing to do so, so they sat there without moving, still smiling.

But even so, there were bursts of anger in Qin's heart.

Qin raised her head and saw at the entrance of the garden, Ye Tangcai in a water shadow red densely woven begonia flower skirt and jacket walked in, walking and chatting with the noble ladies who surrounded her.

That bright and flying smile carried a kind of calmness and composure that only people in high positions possess.

Seeing Ye Tangcai, Qin Shi felt a shock in her heart, and saw that the people in the gazebo were circling around her just now, but now they saw Ye Tangcai, they actually abandoned her and went to flatter Ye Tangcai, Qin Shi felt annoyed for a while .

She is the mother of the crown prince's side concubine, these people actually...

"Hehehe, Mrs. Zhenxihou can chat with these young people." Mrs. Zhuang Guohou quickly smiled to ease the embarrassment.

Although they are all Mrs. Hou, Zhuanguohou's mansion has long been in decline, and it is not much better than before the Ye family was cut. The pillar of the family is just a fifth-rank official, so naturally it cannot be compared with the court upstart like Chu Yunpan.

Mrs. Zhuang Guohou also wants to make friends with Ye Tangcai now, after all, Zhuang Guohou's mansion and the Ye family are family friends. But because of Ye Lingjiao's marriage, Mrs. Zhuang Guohou had an embarrassing quarrel with the Miao family, so it's not easy to go up now.

At this time, Luzhi came up, and saw that Qin's face was gloomy, and Luzhi's expression was not much better.

She moved closer to Qin's ear: "Miss, don't worry about her. Now it's just because she is young that those young ladies and girls come closer. The side concubine will come later. Let's see how arrogant she can be."

Qin Shi nodded her head with a "huh", and when she mentioned Chu Miaoshu, the smile on her face increased a bit: "Sister Shu is still here after so long?"

"Get ready, when these people come around, our side concubine will appear honorable when we appear on the stage again." Lu Zhi said.

Qin was very satisfied, "I see that it's almost time to come, you go back and call someone now, and come out after a while."

"Yes." Green Branch agreed, then turned and left.

When Ye Tangcai walked into Lijing Garden, she was surrounded by a group of noble ladies and young wives.

She just smiled, and then went to the gazebo to see Mrs. Qin first.

No matter what, Qin is now her aunt, so naturally she has to greet her first, otherwise she will be said to be unfilial and disrespectful to her aunt.

Ye Tangcai walked into the gazebo and saluted Qin Shi: "Mother."

Seeing her radiant face, Qin's face turned dark, but thinking that Chu Miaoshu would come over to suppress her in a while, her mood improved a little, and she laughed, "You're here."

As he spoke, his eyes fell outside, and he saw Ye Lingjiao standing not far away waiting for Ye Tangcai, and Mrs. Chen was staying beside Ye Lingjiao.

Qin immediately smiled and said, "Hey, isn't that Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Chen?"

After being called, Mrs. Chen couldn't pretend not to know her, so she walked in with Ye Lingjiao, and smiled, "Long time no see, Mrs. Chu."

"Yeah, long time no see." As she said that, Qin's eyes flashed with pride, "Some things, when I think about them now, are really like dreams, but they are destined in the dark. I want to fly into the royal family, hehehe, but no matter what, I have to thank Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Chen."

Mrs. Chen and Ye Lingjiao agreed for a while, and naturally understood what she meant.

That was actually thanks to Chen Zhiheng for not marrying Chu Miaoshu back then!

Mrs. Chen also laughed: "Thank you, thank you!" Bah, the Chen family does not care about that shameless swindler. If they really marry, their ancestor's grave will collapse, and the ancestor's coffin will not be able to hold it down.

As for the coffin boards in the imperial mausoleum...they wished for luck!

"Hehe." Mrs. Qin laughed without saying a word, just thinking that Mrs. Chen was stubborn.

Now, the Chen family must be beating their chests!

In the past, you looked down upon it, but now, you look down upon it.

"By the way." Qin Shi suddenly looked at Ye Tangcai, "Why didn't your mother come?"

"My mother is cold, so she didn't come." Ye Tangcai sneered.

Qin's eyebrows raised, "It's cold? That's okay, Luye, let me go and see my mother-in-law now."

This is to expose Wen's old background, go and see later, and when Lu Ye comes back, she will report the truth, saying that Wen's is pretending to be sick, but it's just that she doesn't like Chu Miaoshu's high marriage, and she is petty.

"Okay, you go outside to play!" Qin gave Ye Tangcai a meaningful look.

"Yes." Ye Tangcai agreed and left the pavilion.

Chu Miaohua, who had been sitting beside Qin's all the time, was stunned in her heart, and her eyes flashed with disappointment. She also went out with her little sister-in-law, but if she did so, her mother would definitely be angry.

Ye Tang took out the gazebo, and was immediately surrounded by several noble ladies.

"Sister Tang, you are here." A beautiful girl walked up with a smile, and it was Yuan Nanying. "Minmin is here too, let's go over there and play chess together."

"Hey, why do I always play chess and chess? If you want to ask for advice on chess, you can call the county master to come to your door when you have time, or go to the Zhenxihou Mansion for advice. Let's go there and write poems! The chrysanthemums are in full bloom here. Well, a bunch of camellia in the flower bed is also very delicate, let's write poems." A girl of eighteen or nineteen giggled, it was Bao Yue.

Ye Tangcai looked not far from the flower bed, and saw two girls sitting there under the golden maple tree, half of their figures were covered by the maple tree, Ye Tangcai still recognized them, they were Zhang Manman and Wu Xuemei .

Now it was Bao Yue who spoke again.

Zhang Manman, Bao Yue and Wu Xuemei were all candidates for the crown prince's side concubine before, but now Chu Miaoshu has invited all of them here. It's also really cheap.

Ye Tangcai said: "I don't know how to make poetry, but the tea plums over there are beautiful, let's go over there to see the tea plums."

"The county lord is going to play chess with us."

As Yuan Nanying said, she dragged Qi Min to the corridor over there. Ye Weicai didn't want to watch Cha Mei, so she followed Qi Min to watch and play chess.

Ye Tangcai and Ye Lingjiao followed Bao Yue to the maple tree over there.

In the gazebo, Madam Zhuang Guohou breathed a sigh of relief seeing Ye Tangcai still playing with Bao Yue.

On the opposite side of the rockery, Ye Licai and Bao Qi were talking together. The two of them were so jealous of Ye Tangcai that they had a lot of words in common.

Ye Licai said with a sullen face: "Look at that cousin of yours, as soon as you see her, you will rush to her."

Bao Qi snorted coldly: "She's always been like this, your sister-in-law is different." It was Zhang Manman who was talking about.

Ye Licai said: "Chu Miaoshu will come in a while, let's see how she gets rid of it again."

"The fun is yet to come." Bao Qi also looked excited. "I heard that even the concubine's cronies were kicked out by her. That's amazing."

The two exchanged a look, looking like they were watching the show.
