The General's Mansion of the Protector of the Country, the Ye family is a partial house.

"Mother~ I'm twenty-nine years old, and I haven't settled my family affairs yet. You and Daddy aren't in a hurry! "Ye Mengjie has outstanding appearance, but Ye Ping has no official and no title, and most of the people who come to ask for relatives are the children of wealthy businessmen in the imperial city. She grew up in the General's Mansion since she was a child, and she has seen powerful people in Beijing, so she is unwilling to marry a businesswoman. I wanted to marry into your family, so the marriage was delayed.

"How not to rush? Your marriage is in a hurry, and my hair is turning gray. But your father's side hasn't made much progress, so it's useless to be anxious! ”

"Uncle and aunt still don't agree?"

"yes. I thought that your uncle would have a pair of children under his knees, and he would pass you over, and use the identity of the grandson of the general's mansion and the daughter of Shangshu to give you a good marriage. But your uncle and aunt, who pretend to be kind and generous on weekdays, have never nodded their heads about this. ”

"Why are my uncle and aunt so unkind! If I marry a good marriage, it will do them no harm. There is only one pair of children under my uncle's name, even if I am recorded in my name, it will not affect Ye Zhiqiu's marriage. Could it be that the aunt is from the Nanyang Xu family, from a higher background than the Ye family, and presses her uncle not to agree? ”

"It's not all your aunt's fault. After your grandfather passed away, your grandfather bullied your cousin when he was still young and seized all the family property. I gave you only something of little value to your cousin. Who would have thought that feng shui would take turns, your cousin and grandfather went to join the army and made great military achievements. And your grandfather and your father are profligate swingers, and everyone can't help but sit and eat. You will know what happened later: your father took a group of wives and concubines and children from Qinghe to the imperial city and went to the general's mansion to this day. ”

"Since my cousin is willing to take us in regardless of his past suspicions. Why is my uncle so stingy and stubborn? Do you want your father to write a letter begging your grandfather? ”

Ye Mu sighed and said in a mean tone: "It's useless." If your grandfather hadn't died young, your cousin would never have taken us in. Scold..... What kind of good man do you think the famous General Ye will be? It's just that he doesn't want outsiders to say that he dislikes poor relatives. The adults in the officialdom are most afraid of restlessness at home and falling into the hands of others. ”

"What then? Could it be that watching Ye Zhiqiu marry a wealthy Hou Mansion in the future, I can only be a businesswoman? Ye Mengjie's little face was sad, and her eyes were full of unwillingness.

"Alas..... We women, one looks at reincarnation, and the other looks at marriage. Not everyone has such a good life as Empress Dowager Lin. Mother Lin's sigh made Lin Mengjie wake up like a dream.

"Mother, the Lin family also relied on their daughter to soar. And everyone in Beijing knows: General Lin has a group of wives and concubines. You say, will General Lin's grandsons be just as beautiful as him? ”

Lin's mother tongue was puzzled, "Although the Lin family is an upstart, they can't look down on your father as having no official position. Besides, General Lin has always been suspicious of your cousin's command. How could they agree to the Ye family's daughter marrying into the Lin family? ”

"What if you don't agree? As long as the time comes, the son of the Lin family can marry me, and then let everyone in Beijing know. Presumably, my uncle took care of the Ye family's face when he arrived, so he had to record me in his name. Otherwise, if it is rumored that I am going to marry the boudoir, I will have a bad reputation for life with someone, and it will also affect his precious daughter, right? ”

Lin Mengjie's eyes were ruthless, and even her beauty was a little scary.

"But the son of the Lin family, which one to choose?" Mother Lin thought that several concubines of the Lin family happened to have a school with Lin Mengjie. I thought my daughter wanted to choose one of those few.

"Mother, you're so confused! If there is anything to consider about a few concubines, if you want to choose, you will choose the young master of the Lin family. ”

Mother Lin didn't expect her daughter to be so ambitious, and exclaimed loudly: "The young master of the Lin family, that is the concubine of the court." With us it is one heaven and one earth. Don't say that the Lin family is a concubine, we are all high climbing, and we may not be able to succeed. Sister-in-law..... That's never going to happen. ”

"If you don't have the sons and daughters of powerful people, you can enter the temple..... If I am in the same temple as Lin Yanning, I will definitely have a chance to make him fall in love with me! When it comes to appearance and talent, I don't have to know it! Why should she deserve the princess and princess in the future, I can't even think of a son of a princess?! As long as Lin Yanning is devoted to me, and then my uncle is willing to record me in his name, I am also worthy of the son of the Lin Mansion! ”

Mother Lin was a little moved, and muttered, "But ........"

"Mother, you do what I say.............."

Summer goes to autumn, and a few months later, the main hall of Yefu. Ye An's family of four was having breakfast, and Ye's mother led her daughter Ye Mengjie to visit suddenly.

"Oh, it's really unfortunate~ I caught up with the old lady for breakfast. Why don't we come back later? ”

Ye Zhiqiu and Ye Ruochen looked at each other in tacit understanding, speechless.

"It doesn't matter. What's the matter with my sister-in-law? Ye An asked.

"It's not a big deal. Just a few days after the Mid-Autumn Festival, I want to take Jie'er to the suburbs of the Guanyin Temple to worship the Buddha and ask for a good marriage. But I see that other families are all sisters in the family who go together, come and ask Qiu'er if you want to go together? It is also necessary to go separately alone, and outsiders say that the Ye Mansion is not in harmony. ”

"It's fine. The sister-in-law and the wife discussed the family affairs. I'll go first, and you guys should finish eating quickly, don't be too late to go to school. Ye An didn't care about these family affairs, so he left home first.

"Yes, Father." Ye Ruochen got up and waited for Ye An to leave before sitting down again.

"Got it, Daddy, go quickly." Ye Zhiqiu didn't care, and the chopsticks in his hand did not pause.

"This kid~ made my sister-in-law smile. Have you had breakfast? After Mrs. Ye finished speaking, she asked the maid to put two pairs of dishes and chopsticks on the table.

"Yes, Madame, don't bother. How about going to the Guanyin Temple together for a break in the temple the day after tomorrow? ”

"Okay."

"Madame's farewell~"

After the two of them left, Ye Ruochen said leisurely: "Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief." ”

Ye Zhiqiu corrected with a smile: "It should be: the weasel gave the chicken a New Year's greeting, and he didn't have a good heart." ”

Mrs. Ye frowned and reprimanded, "Don't say that, let your father hear the reprimand." ”

Ye Ruochen pouted, and his father only reprimanded him. Dissatisfied: "Mother~ It's just that you are too kind, so they will get an inch." ”

Ye Zhiqiu retorted: "Why do you blame your mother? Whoever let his grandfather and father die will suffer to save face. Such a large family: my uncle's family has more wives and concubines than our family of four. If the mother waits slowly, they chew their tongues outside and talk about their mother. You men, you only care about the appearance and scenery outside, and you don't understand how difficult it is to be the housewife of the family. ”

Mrs. Ye was amused by her daughter, "You, you have been a ghost since you were a child. Afraid that his mother would be angry, he also classified his younger brother into the men's faction. ”

Ye Zhiqiu didn't admit it, "Originally~"

Ye Ruochen's handsome face was slightly embarrassed, and he was a little annoyed and angry. "Father's little money is not enough for their family. When he got into trouble outside, he had to wipe his ass with his father. If it weren't for his mother's rich dowry, the Ye family would have been gnawed by their silverfish. ”

"What's wrong with your brother? I've never seen him so angry on weekdays. ”

"Maybe I was teased by my classmates in the school temple. The last time my uncle was in the concubine room, she died during childbirth, and many people in Beijing knew about it. ”

Mrs. Ye just sighed, who is not worried about such a relative. It's just that Ye Ping is older than Ye An, and General Ye is not in the mansion. I can't catch up or scold, I'm afraid that someone with a heart will make a fuss about it, and give Ann a charge of "disrespecting my brother and being unkind".
