I didn't sleep much more that night, and it was dawning soon.

The subordinates in the small courtyard are accustomed to their master's work and rest time, although they don't know that the master is not there at night, but they know that the master is unwilling to get up early in the morning. Therefore, the people also got up a little later, and walked lightly, and even the time to clean the yard was postponed, just to let the master sleep a little longer.

But in today's environment, no matter how much you want to sleep, it is not as quiet as in the future. No matter how exquisite the materials used in the stepping bed are, in the end it is still not as comfortable as the latex cushions of later generations. When she woke up in the middle of the hour, she saw that Xiangdong had already arrived at her couch, and when she opened her eyes, she said to her: "The old lady of the Xiao family has arrived, and she is talking to the old lady of our family in Fulu Courtyard!" ”

She reacted for a moment before she reacted, "Second Lady's mother? ”

"Hmm." Xiangdong nodded, "Miss is busy with things outside these days, leaving early and returning late, and there are some things in the house that I haven't had time to tell you." The second master of our family has made up his mind to marry a flat wife, and the flat wife who wants to marry into the door is still the outer room that he has raised outside for many years. Not only does she have a daughter who is the same age as Miss San, but that lady is still pregnant. ”

Ye Wenyan was not surprised by this, because Mama Ji had already told her that it was discovered by the secret guards who were monitoring Xichun. It is said that because of this matter, Xichun also had a quarrel with Yejingsheng,

But Xiangdong only learned about it recently, and recently Ye Jingsheng also made this matter public and put it on the bright side.

Xiangdong waited for her to get up, and said while holding the curtain: "The second master probably thinks that he should strike first, he went to Xiao's house yesterday to make a fuss and pointed out several major crimes of the second lady. This crime not only mentions the third lady's loss of virginity and morality, but also mentions the matter between the second young master and the third highness, saying that he has no hope of passing on the ancestry, which is the biggest crime. What's more, the second lady can no longer be reborn, so if he doesn't marry a flat wife, he will have no children in the future, he is now the head of the general's mansion, and the head of the family has no children, which is equivalent to the night family being broken, how does this make him face the ancestors of the night family? ”

Ye Wenyan nodded when he heard this, "This matter is really smart. ”

Xiangdong also nodded, "Just say yes!" The second master himself thinks so, no, after he came back, he told him about it in front of the old lady and the second lady. Many of the people heard it, and one by one it came to us. The slave estimated that the Xiao family might have been suppressed by the second master yesterday, and she also felt that she didn't pay attention to it, so she didn't come to the door directly. ”

As he was talking, Shen'er also entered the house, carrying a basin of water to wash Ye Wenyan's face.

"Maybe it's just a dream, in a dream, I dreamed of how to reply to this mouth, how to refute the words of the second master, so I came to the door today to be a blessing!" Shen'er said with a smile, "Although the second master also hates it, I still feel quite enjoyable when I heard what he said when he went to Xiao Mansion." The second lady didn't give birth to a good child in the first place, don't you let people say it! ”

The little maid stuck out her tongue when she said this, "Miss, don't tell the second young master that the slave maid said this, the slave maid is not aimed at him." ”

Ye Wenyan didn't care who she was aiming at, and she didn't really want to care whether Ye Jingsheng married a flat wife or not.

It was the second room of the night house, and in the end, it didn't have much impact on her life. It's just that she wants to avenge the original owner, and I don't know if it will become more complicated because of the new hostess in the family.

"Who is in Fulu Courtyard at this time?" She asked Xiangdong, "Can the old lady get up now?" Also restored to morning and dusk? ”

Xiangdong nodded, "I can get up, and the morning and dusk province has also recovered." It's just that the second lady still asked for peace and left, and didn't care whether the old lady was happy or not. But there must be a place for this kind of anger, so whenever our lady and eldest lady passed, the old lady would say a few more words, and even once kept them until lunchtime. ”

Ye Wenyan laughed, "How do you say something?" Three days without hitting the house and revealing the tiles! Presumably, Fulu Courtyard is not haunted these days, so some people feel that this matter has passed. ”

She fastened the last strap around her waist, "Let's go, let's go and say goodbye to Grandmother." ”

Today's Fulu Courtyard was very lively, and Old Madam Xiao personally came to the door and sat side by side with Old Madam Ye. There was a small table between the two, and an old lady on one side, this meeting was a bit like the days when Uncle and Grandma Tang were still there.

Below, Ye Jingsheng and Xiao Shubai are there, Liu Shi and Ye Chulian are also there, Xichun is also there, and even the Night Flying Boat is sitting on the side.

The big house is full of people, just bow their heads and eat tea, just like guests, without saying a word.

The night of the broken arm has also arrived today, and it seems that the spirit is good, but one arm is tied with a white cotton bandage and hangs around the neck, which looks a little funny.

Xiao Shubai's face was so ugly and ugly at this moment, the handkerchief in his hand was almost broken, and his body trembled slightly. It's a pity that the husband sitting next to him turned a blind eye to this, and even looked disgusted.

When Ye Wenyan arrived, he saw Old Madam Xiao sitting on the top with her waist straight, looking at Ye Jingsheng below with cold eyes, and said in a condescending tone: "At the beginning, my Ningguo Marquis Mansion married my daughter to you, which was already a blessing to you, the second son of the General's Mansion. Why, now that the second son has become the head of the family, do you think that the daughter of my Ningguo Marquis Mansion is not worthy of you? Ye Jingsheng, when you asked to marry Shubai, you didn't say this to the old body. ”

Ye Wenyan slipped to Ye Qingmei and sat down, and the next person immediately served tea, and she saw Old Madam Xiao glance at her, and her eyes rolled.

If this is put aside in the past, Ye Wenyan can't get used to her problem. But today, she is not the protagonist today, they are not the protagonists in their big house, they are sitting here just to watch the play, and they can't even support the scene.

So she didn't pay attention to Old Madam Xiao's attitude towards her, but smiled back very generously.

Old Madam Xiao felt that her smile and her big white face looked very weird, so she immediately looked at Ye Jingsheng and looked at Ye Jingsheng again: "Do you Ye family have to give an explanation to the old body?" ”

Ye Jingsheng may feel that he is the reasonable party today, and the shelf is also very full. Hearing Mrs. Xiao ask like this, he was not in a hurry, and calmly asked back: "May I ask my mother-in-law, when was Shubai born?" ”

Old Madam Xiao was stunned, as if she didn't expect Ye Jingsheng to ask such a question. She thought that the night scene would be with her to count the so-called crimes she said yesterday, and she even thought about how to deal with it, but the conversation changed, and people asked about her daughter's age.

She was a little panicked.

"Husband and wife for many years, how can they even ask such a question to the old body?" She avoided answering and snorted to show her displeasure.

Ye Jingsheng also snorted, "Does my mother-in-law not want to say it, or do you dare not say it?" Or have you forgotten when your daughter was born? Also, the lie has been made up for so long that even I will think it is true. Then why don't I remind my mother-in-law that the Geng sticker exchanged that year said Xiao Shubai, the daughter of the Xiao family, was born in May of the second year of Tiansheng, three years younger than me. ”

Old Madam Xiao nodded, "Exactly." Since you remember everything, why bother to ask the old body? Today's old body is not here to discuss this with you, you don't have to avoid the important and trivial. ”

"It's not about avoiding the important and trivial, this is a serious thing to talk about." Ye Jingsheng was determined to die with Mrs. Xiao, "The two families discuss relatives and exchange Geng stickers, and the actual birth dates of both parties must be written clearly on them, so that they can find someone to test the eight-character marriage." When the Xiao family's Geng paste was sent over, our Ye family had doubts, because when the Xiao family's concubine was born, the Ningguo Marquis Mansion held a big banquet, and our Ye family went to the banquet and followed the party. I heard my father and mother talk about it, that year was obviously the forty-third year of Tianyun, but why did he become the second year of Tiansheng when he arrived in the Gengtie of the Xiao family? ”

He continued to ask Old Madam Xiao, "Although it's all May, there are four years in between!" Your Xiao family's daughter is obviously one year older than me, how did she become three years younger than me when she arrived in Geng Tiezhong? Did my mother-in-law give me an explanation for this in advance? ”

Xiao Shubai sat next to him, listening to what he said, "Bang la", and the handkerchief in his hand was finally torn.

The last thing that Mrs. Xiao couldn't see was that this daughter was bullied, so she turned her face at that time: "Night Jingsheng!" My Marquis Mansion of Ning Guo is really blind to choose you as a son-in-law. You have been married for nearly 20 years, and now you actually come to settle this account with me, can you calculate this account? Yes, we were born in the forty-third year of Heavenly Fortune, but so what? The original Geng Tie Xu was written incorrectly, since your Ye family has already questioned it, why didn't you mention it at the beginning, but only mentioned it twenty years later? ”

The table was slammed by Mrs. Xiao, and even the tea cup on it jumped up one after another.

Tea splashed all over the table, and the old lady moved her arm to the side in disgust, for fear of soiling her new clothes.

The more Old Madam Xiao spoke, the more she felt justified, and even wiped away her tears: "Now that your Ye family has great military merits, you can't look down on our Ningguo Marquis Mansion." But when I asked to marry my Xiao family's daughter-in-law, your mother went to our house in person and told me about marriage in front of me. She promised me that she would be good to my daughter, that she would treat her as her own, and that although she was married to the second son, she would definitely live as well as the eldest son. At that time, why didn't you mention that Geng Tie was written wrong? At that time, why didn't you say that your Ye family had attended the wedding banquet of the Xiao family's daughter's birth? Now that you're going over old accounts with me, the night family is relying on military merits, so you don't take my dignified mansion in your eyes? ”

Finally, he slapped the table and bounced the tea directly to the ground, which happened to shatter at the feet of the old lady of the night.

The old lady frowned, and finally spoke—
