"Madame is in the ancestral hall now, and it is inconvenient for outsiders to be present."

Yinhua replied with a smile. Ye Xiaoyu found that Yinhua smiled like Hong'er, and her eyes became crooked, like a crescent moon, which was very good-looking.

The two of them sat like this, chatting casually, and Ye Xiaoyu got up to say goodbye, because she estimated that Jiang Ping was about to come out of the ancestral hall.

The ancestral hall is located in the East Chamber, Ye Xiaoyu is actually a little strange, the North Garden is actually the main house, and the ancestral hall should also be in the North Garden, but it was built in the East Wing where Lu Meijiao lived.

After coming to Lu's house for so long, Ye Xiaoyu has never been to the East Chamber, because there is no reason to come here, the personalities of Qinglang and Lu Meijiao's mother and son are so cold and hot, Ye Xiaoyu can't deal with it at all, and she usually has to avoid it, how could she come here on purpose.

The structure of the East Wing and the South Garden is similar, and when you enter the gate, there are three independent courtyards inside. The ancestral hall is estimated to be an independent courtyard, but the location is a little biased, and you have to turn several corridors to get there, and there is no way to see it when you stand at the gate of the east wing.

Ye Xiaoyu suddenly thought of the time when she was in the school before, Lu Meijiao gave herself dumplings, since Jiang Ping hadn't come out yet, and she had also come to the East Chamber, she might as well visit this kind Aunt Lu, and by the way, this encounter with Jiang Ping would not be so abrupt.

Ye Xiaoyu didn't know Lu Meijiao's yard, but without waiting for Ye Xiaoyu to ask others, suddenly the door of the courtyard in front of her opened, and Lu Meijiao walked out of it.

"Aunt Lu......"

Ye Xiaoyu shouted happily.

"Yo, Xiaoyu, how did you get here? Don't tell me before you come, I'll have something to prepare......"

I haven't seen her for a long time, but Lu Meijiao is still the same, so enthusiastic that it makes people scared.

"Aunt Lu, I passed by the garden just now, and suddenly remembered that I hadn't seen you for a long time, so I wanted to come and see you......"

Ye Xiaoyu stepped forward with a smile.

"Yo, it's rare that you still remember your aunt, this is the first time you've come to the East Chamber, come, come in with your aunt and sit ......"

Lu Meijiao took Ye Xiaoyu's hand and warmly invited her into the house.

"No need Aunt Lu, I just want to come and see you, and thank you......"

Ye Xiaoyu didn't want to go into the house, in case Jiang Ping came out of the ancestral hall at that time, she would miss it.

"Thank me? Thank me for what? Could it be that you are really going to marry Qinglang? ”

Lu Meijiao looked at Ye Xiaoyu with a surprised and playful expression.

"Forehead ......"

Ye Xiaoyu's face is full of black lines, what is this? I don't know why, Lu Meijiao has such a deep obsession with this.

"Uh...... Aunt Lu, what are you talking about, I'm here to thank you for the dumplings you gave me last time......"

While Lu Meijiao hadn't used her imagination yet, Ye Xiaoyu hurriedly explained.

"Dumplings? I haven't given you dumplings, have I? ”

Lu Meijiao didn't know what to do, because she didn't like to eat dumplings, she had never wrapped them, let alone gave them to Ye Xiaoyu to eat.

"Yes, Aunt Lu, you gave it to me last time, did you forget it?"

When he went back to recess last time, in the garden, the paralyzed sunny man obviously took a bag of dumplings to Ye Xiaoyu, and he also said for the first time that Lu Meijiao entrusted him to give him, because he was starving to death at that time, so he would never remember such a thing in the snow.

"Huh?"

When Lu Meijiao was about to ask what was going on, Jiang Ping's voice came.

Xiaoyu ...... Meijiao, such a coincidence? ”

The two turned their heads to take a look and found that Jiang Ping was coming from a distance, because she came out of the ancestral hall, there was no maid by her side, only alone.

"Ma'am."

Ye Xiaoyu replied lightly.

"Xiaoyu, why did you come to the East Chamber today?"

After approaching, Jiang Ping looked at Ye Xiaoyu and asked.

"Mrs. Hui, I passed by outside, and when I saw Aunt Lu, I came over to say hello......"

Ye Xiaoyu replied softly.

"Finished incense?"

Lu Meijiao asked Jiang Ping.

"Hmm."

Jiang Ping replied lightly. Ye Xiaoyu found that the communication between the two of them was really rare.

"Brother hasn't come back yet?"

Lu Meijiao asked again.

"Hmm. However, I received a letter from him yesterday and am already on my way, and will be there in more than ten days. ”

Jiang Ping said, glancing at Lu Meijiao, I don't know if it was Ye Xiaoyu's illusion, because the look in her eyes seemed to be showing off.

Lu Meijiao didn't pay attention to that look, and after a few casual words, the two hurriedly separated. Ye Xiaoyu and Lu Meijiao had already said what they should have said, so they also said goodbye to her and left with Jiang Ping.

"I've been in good spirits lately."

On the way back, Jiang Ping looked at Ye Xiaoyu next to her and said.

"Well, thanks to Madame's care, it's much better."

Ye Xiaoyu looked up at Jiang Ping and said with a smile.

"That's good, otherwise, after the master comes back, I don't know how to explain to him......"

Jiang Ping had another expression that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

"Madame's concern and care for me, Xiaoyu remembers it in her heart."

Ye Xiaoyu's face was full of gratitude.

"Silly girl, it's all a family, how can you say such a thing. Take care of you as it should be. ”

Jiang Ping reached out and touched Ye Xiaoyu's head.

"Madam, are we going to have a bumper harvest of sweet potatoes this year?"

Chatting and chatting, Ye Xiaoyu asked seemingly casually.

"Well, this year's sunshine is good, and the harvest is indeed good. Xiaoyu, why did you ask this question suddenly? ”

The child's family suddenly asked this kind of question, Jiang Ping felt a little strange.

"I just finished going to the thatched house and wanted to move some firewood back to Nanyuan, and I saw that there were several piles of sweet potatoes in the backyard, and I put them there, are they going to be planted as seeds next year?"

Ye Xiaoyu asked innocently.

"How many piles? Is it in the backyard? ”

Listening to Ye Xiaoyu's words, Jiang Ping's face immediately changed, didn't the fifth child tell him that they had already been distributed, how could there still be sweet potatoes piled up in the backyard?

"Hmm. I saw it in the backyard. Some of them have sprouted. ”

Ye Xiaoyu replied blandly. This kind of thing, there is no basis for words, Jiang Ping will see it for herself later.

"Xiaoyu, let's go to the backyard to see if it's really sprouted......"

Jiang Ping smiled and bowed her head and said to Ye Xiaoyu, although the smile was calm, Ye Xiaoyu always felt that there were some complicated expressions mixed in.

The backyard was empty, and at first glance, there were no sweet potatoes or anything like that, only to see a few piles of wood piled up in the corner of the wall, which were tightly covered with thatch, Jiang Ping looked around and looked at Ye Xiaoyu with a somewhat gloomy face.

"Xiaoyu, where are the sweet potatoes you said?"

Although his heart fluctuated, he still looked at Ye Xiaoyu with a smile and asked.

"Madam, I was going to bring some firewood back to Nanyuan to boil water, but when I lifted the thatch over there, I found that it was not fuelwood, but sweet potatoes......

Ye Xiaoyu pointed to the pile of things in the corner and said to Jiang Ping.

Listening to Ye Xiaoyu's words, Jiang Ping did not answer, but walked directly to the side of the fence and lifted the thatch covering it with her hands. According to this, the other two piles were opened in a row, and these things were also these things, which were probably stacked for a long time, and some of the sweet potato sprouts stained with soil were rising so high.
