Chapter 003: Hidden Turmoil
After a while, Shisu and Banxia brought breakfast with a few little maids. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Ye Shuyao drank the rice porridge with blue stems, looked at the seven or eight meals on the table, thinking that this was just the most common example in the house, and couldn't help but sigh that Dad's official university was good.
Ye Shuyao's father, Ye Qichen, was a secretary of the household department and a member of the first product of the dynasty. Now there is only one wife and one concubine in the family, and the cost is less and more is in the account, so Shu Yao still doesn't have to worry about the standard of living.
Ye Qichen is also a qualified father, a concubine and a concubine in the family are required to be recorded in the name of their mother-in-law, although they usually don't have much communication, they still haven't been treated badly in money.
Before the food on the table was missing, Ye Shuyao felt full, so he asked Shiso and the others to take it down to reward the girls.
Ye Shuyao was about to move to eliminate food, when she heard a little girl say that Mingyue, the maid next to her wife, was coming.
"Third Miss, Madame asked me to take you to Zhiqiu Courtyard to see if there is anything to add. ”
Shu Yao was naturally willing, so she took Shisu and a little girl to Zhiqiu Courtyard together.
About a cup of tea before I arrived at the place, Zhiqiu Courtyard has been sealed for many years, the door locks are stained with rust, the little girl stepped forward and pushed the door open, and the courtyard has fallen a thick plane leaf.
The breeze blows, the fallen leaves rustle, the scenery in the courtyard is not bad, but it is still midsummer outside the courtyard, but the courtyard seems to have entered the late autumn, which is worthy of being known as the autumn courtyard.
Mingyue seemed reluctant to enter the courtyard, so she only took out a large set of keys, "Third Miss will see for herself what is still missing in the courtyard, and Madame is still waiting for me to serve there." ”
Zi Su took the key and looked at Ye Shuyao with a blink of an eye.
"Then there is Aunt Lao Mingyue, just Shu Jiao herself. ”
Seeing off Mingyue, Ye Shuyao took the perilla to visit the Zhiqiu Courtyard carefully. I have to say that Ye Shuyao's mother is still a very aesthetic woman, even if there is a thick layer of dust in the house, she can still vaguely see the elegance.
Considering that the main house is the former residence of her deceased mother after all, Shu Yao doesn't plan to live here, but just wants to clean it herself after moving in.
"Shisu, what do you think of the West Wing?"
"It seems that the west wing was not often inhabited before, and everything is covered with cotton cloth, so you should be able to move in with a little cleaning. ”
"Well, I think so too, and the lighting is good, just worse than the main house. Ye Shuyao is still very satisfied here, the taste of the furnishings and decorations in the house is not a little higher than hers.
But taste can be cultivated slowly, and after having money, the spiritual level will naturally improve, how to say that she is now a rich lady.
"Tomorrow, you choose a few safe maids to clean here, don't break anything, don't enter the main house, you just keep the key." ”
Zi Su hurriedly agreed, and Shu Yao also saw that she was not afraid of not letting her enter the main house.
"The fallen leaves in the yard should also be cleaned up, and the gardener should have a look at it, and plant some flowers that are easy to raise and do not attract mosquitoes. "Ye Shuyao is most afraid of trouble, and there is no one in her maid who is proficient in flower and plant planting, of course, how convenient it is.
"Miss, do you want to build a grape trellis in the yard, it won't grow this year, but next summer maybe you will be able to eat grapes under the vines. ”
"Yes, make me another swing there. So be it for now, and I'll see what else I need when it's cleaned up. ”
On the way back to the hospital, Shu Yao was still in a good mood.
"Girl, why are you so happy?"
Ye Shuyao looked fixedly, it was the eldest brother Ye Jiannan and his father who came over together.
This eldest brother is a concubine like himself, and the relationship between the two is still good under the sympathy of each other.
The father only had this one son, and he didn't want to limit his future, so he recorded both of them in his mother's name, of course, he was piggybacking.
The eldest brother's aunt is still alive, even if the grandmother doesn't like her, she can't do anything, but she pities her for this angry bag, but fortunately, the overall atmosphere in the family is quite peaceful, and she is still much better than most concubines.
"Shu Yao has seen his father, and his father is fine. Seeing the two approaching, Shu Yao naturally wanted to salute.
Ye Qichen just glanced at her lightly, and didn't say anything.
Or did the eldest brother continue to ask her: "You haven't said anything so happy?"
"My mother saw that I was getting older and it was not suitable to live in a side hospital, so she allowed me to move to Zhiqiu Hospital. ”
Hearing the three words of Zhiqiu Yuan, Ye Qichen's face changed slightly, and he wanted to say something but stopped talking.
But the eldest brother smiled heartlessly, "This is the joy of housewarming, when to move, the eldest brother will give you a big gift." ”
Ye Shuyao was also very happy to hear it, of course it was a good thing to have a gift. "Then thank you big brother first. ”
Ye Qichen only said one sentence, but it made Shu Yao even more happy. "The money needed to renovate the yard is directly reported to the housekeeper. ”
Using my father's money is definitely more reasonable than using my stepmother's money.
"Thank you Daddy, you and your eldest brother are going to the study, and my daughter won't bother. ”
Seeing Ye Qichen humming, Shu Jiao rushed back to the side courtyard with the maid.
"Miss, why are you still so afraid of the master, the better the relationship with the master, the better the relationship with the master, the better it will be for you!" Zi Su had an expression of hatred that iron could not become steel.
"Of course I know, but my father's aura is really too big to stay next to him for a long time. ”
"Miss, you just think too much, how good the master is to you, I am afraid that you will be wronged by your mother-in-law, so I specially gave you money from the public. ”
"I know you're doing it for my good, so I'll pay attention next time, okay?"
"Miss, you say that every time!" Zi Su looked at Shu Jiao's unconcerned appearance helplessly, and went out to find Banxia as soon as he stomped his feet.
Ye Shuyao smiled bitterly, it's not that she doesn't know how to benefit herself, but a person who has only known her for half a month, how can she let go of the mustard and treat him like her own father.
On the other side, Ye Wanqing was complaining to her mother: "Why do you want to give that girl an independent yard!"
"Qing'er, you're about to be in time, why are you still so ignorant. Since she is in my name, even if she is a concubine, what good will my mistreatment of her do to your reputation?"
"But, I just can't see that slut doing well. Mother, she is a concubine, why does she eat and wear the same degree as me. ”
"You are my own daughter, how can you be like her, what things you use on weekdays are not finer than hers?"
"But I am disgusted when I think that she occupies the name of a concubine like me, and a concubine is born, why? ”
Looking at her daughter's unwilling face, how could Yang Qingru really be willing in her heart, Bai Xi's slut took advantage of her husband's favor when she was alive, and now why is her daughter doing well.
At this time, Qingfeng came in to spread the word, saying that the housekeeper had just come.
"Oh, what did the housekeeper say?" asked Ye Wanqing absently.
"Say, it is said that the money for the third lady to repair the yard came out of the public school, so there is no need to trouble the housewife. "Qingfeng is a little afraid of this second lady, the lady is already strong, and the pampered young lady is even more bad-tempered.
Sure enough, Ye Wanqing dropped a cup before she could finish listening.
"Qing'er, it's time for your temper to change. Yang Qingru scolded, her daughter always wants to get married when she is old, how can such a temper be good.
"Mother, you heard it too, how can Daddy be so partial!"
"Enough, when did your father shorten your share, how old he still cared about that little profit. ”
"But I'm the real concubine, what kind of thing is she?"
"Qing'er, since you know that you are a concubine, you have to show the demeanor of a concubine, even if she is recorded in my name, outsiders will know that she is just a concubine, and she will not be able to marry better than you in the future. Yang Qingru analyzed the pros and cons with her daughter little by little, and she firmly believed that she was the winner ten years ago, and now she is, and her daughter will be the final winner.
"Don't provoke that disaster now, I have never taken her to large and small gatherings in the capital, but any lady with a better family background will not take a fancy to such a daughter-in-law. Yang Qingru drank saliva and continued.
"She's going to get married in two years, what kind of good family can she find? Why don't you stop pressuring her then? Why bother to make your father hate you now?"
Ye Wanqing also quieted down when she heard this, but her eyes were still fierce.
