Chapter 14: The Bright Moon (1)

"The slave's name is Su Mingyue, and the ancestral house is in Yanlai City, which is two hundred miles away. Several generations have been in the fragrance and powder business, although they are not famous and rich, but they are also in a safe corner, and they are small and rich. I once married Ye Chaoning with a bamboo horse and a green plum, and my fingertips were ......" The female ghost Su Mingyue wept and told the story.

Thirteen years ago, Yanlai City, Su House.

It was a scorching summer day, the sun was like a fire, and the sound of cicadas on the trees was non-stop, so noisy that Su Mingyue, who was taking a nap in the courtyard, woke up from her dream, and was so angry that she called out repeatedly: "Xiaochun!" Koharu! ”

"Here we go! Miss, what's wrong?! Hearing this, the little maid hurriedly ran over.

"The nasty bugs on that tree are dead, hurry up and catch them all!" Su Mingyue is the eldest of the Su family, and she has an elder brother, and when Master Su got this little daughter, he was not confused, and he was so pampered that he couldn't do it.

The little maid was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but say, "Huh? How do you get rid of this? ”

"Humph! I don't care what you think of, who you find, just let them calm me down! "Su Mingyue doesn't care, my father and brother have always been obedient to themselves, and they don't want the stars to give the moon.

"Okay, I'll go find Young Master Ye." Koharu lifted her skirt and was about to run out.

"Alas! You stop for me, and you are not allowed to go to Brother Chaoning! As soon as Su Mingyue heard that she was going to find Ye Chaoning, she was so anxious that she jumped up from the couch.

"Hehehe, Miss, didn't you say that it doesn't matter what method I think and who I find!" Xiaochun was also sold into Su Mansion at the age of seven, and he grew up with this Su Mingyue, and he can be regarded as having a thorough temper with this young lady. Although she is pampered, her heart is not bad, and she can be regarded as an innocent and pure woman, so in front of her, the two are often neither big nor small, and they forget their identities.

"You...... You hate it! If you dare to disturb Brother Chaoning, see that I don't pick your skin! Su Mingyu pretended to threaten.

Koharu had no choice but to pretend to be scared and hide back.

While the two were playing, another little maid trotted all the way over, and walked to Su Mingyue's front and saluted, "Miss, Young Master Ye is looking for you outside the courtyard." ”

"What? Brother Chaoning is here? Didn't he go to the Fragrance Pavilion with his father and eldest brother? Why did you come to me? Su Mingyu asked as she hurriedly sat down in front of the dresser by the window. Koharu understands herself, and combs her hair and changes clothes for her young lady with her hands and feet.

"The slave doesn't know, but I just see that Ye Gongzi seems to be in a good mood today, and there is a box in his hand, saying that he is a gift for Miss."

"Huh? Brother Chaoning also brought me a gift? No, Koharu, hurry up! Su Mingyue was anxious and kept urging.

Koharu shook his head helplessly: "Okay, good!" ”

Finally finished freshening up and changing into a beautiful new clothes, Su Mingyue jumped and ran to see Ye Chaoning.

"Brother Chaoning." People are still far away, and the voice has arrived.

The man under the tree, dressed in a purple robe, was tall and tall, moist as jade, and turned around, and when he saw the woman running in the distance, he couldn't help but smile happily.

"Be careful, don't fall." Ye Chaoning also walked towards the people who came, stretching out his hand to help each other.

"You...... Why are you coming to me now? I thought you and your father, and your eldest brother went to the Fragrance Pavilion. Su Mingyue really stood in front of Ye Chaoning, and tilted her head to the side shyly and timidly, not daring to look him in the eyes.

"I'm going home tomorrow, so I'm coming to see you today." Ye Chaoning replied softly.

"What? You, you, you...... Want to be like Peach Blossom Town? Su Mingyue was so shocked that she stammered, this was too sudden.

The Ye family and the Su family have been friends for two generations, especially his mother and Ye Chaoning's biological mother are close friends in the boudoir. Therefore, he is actually married to Ye Chaoning. But because the Ye family has reached Ye Chaoning's generation, there are three brothers and two younger sisters, and the Ye family can be said to be prosperous. But at the same time, for the Ye family's family business, how many pairs of eyes are also staring at each other. Therefore, Ye Chaoning is also under pressure when he lives at home.

No, Ye Chaoning has been from Taohua Town to Yanlai City for more than a month, on the one hand, he is mainly engaged in his family's dyeing and printing business, and on the other hand, he also follows the Su family to learn spice sales. In the future, when Su Mingyue marries, it will be good for Ye Chaoning to help him in the Ye family.

"Well, after I go back, I'll ask my dad to send someone to propose marriage." Ye Chaoning looked at Su Mingyue's disappointed appearance and said with a smile.

"What? This ...... That's right. That ...... When is Brother Chaoning coming? Su Mingyue's little face was already flushed.

"Miss!" Xiao Chun next to him couldn't help but whisper, you are a little reserved!

"Hahaha......" Ye Chaoning smiled heartily, and then affectionately sent out the brocade box in his hand, and said: "This is my mother's wedding dress, too...... My grandmother's dowry. Although she is no longer here, before she died, she told me that she must give it to her future daughter-in-law. Today, I gave it to you, wait for me! I will definitely be back soon. Marry you into the Ye family, and we will never be separated. ”

Su Mingyue opened the brocade box and saw that it was a pair of gold-inlaid jade bracelets carved with dragons and phoenixes, although she was shy and blushing, her eyes couldn't help but moisten. This can be regarded as Ye Chaoning's promise to himself. Still such a valuable promise! Hold the hand of the son, and grow old with the son. Brother Chaoning, I will wait for you to come. Then I will put on my wedding dress and go with you......

A month later, as Ye Chaoning said, the Ye family sent a long team of scenery to the Su family to propose marriage. It was already agreed that the mothers of both parties had already agreed, and after this meeting, they naturally chose an auspicious day, and Su Mingyue married into the Ye family. With a rich dowry, Su Mingyue finally stepped onto the sedan chair with a heart of infinite yearning for the future.

Su Mingyue once thought that this man would be the most important person in her life from now on, and she would definitely be separated from Ye Chaoning forever. And he will also shelter himself from the wind and rain and never give up.

However, everything turned out to be just her wishful thinking, and providence made people!

If she had known that she would take the lives of everyone in the Su family in the future to accompany her in this relationship, she would really rather never meet Ye Chaoning. The tragedy of her life began......

In the second year of marrying into Ye Mansion, Su Mingyue was no longer ignorant of the world, and gradually discovered that although Ye Chaoning loved her, she was also helpless. Old Master Ye has many wives and concubines, and has many children, Ye Chaoning's mother Liu died early, leaving him alone in the Ye Mansion to make a living.

He was not the eldest son, nor was he anything special about his brothers. The only thing he can do is to use his diligence and seriousness to win his father's favor.

Therefore, businessmen value profit over separation, and Ye Chaoning and Su Mingyue, who have just been married, are particularly appropriate. Ye Chaoning spends most of the year busy away from home. At the beginning, she was still young and newly married, but as the days passed, Su Mingyue inevitably felt desolate in her heart.

Especially in the fourth year, Su Mingyue has been married into the Ye Mansion for so long, but her stomach has not moved. It is said that there are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is great. At first, she was only faced with the bad words between her in-laws and her concubine, but later, between the husband and wife, she couldn't help but start to resent.

So much so that as soon as Ye Chaoning came back, the two clashed from time to time, and even quarreled.

And the Ye family's housemother has already begun to give birth to a child for Ye Chaoning's concubine. Even if Ye Chaoning was unwilling, he felt that he was just arguing with Su Mingyue from time to time, and he had not yet reached the urge to take a concubine, after all, Su Mingyue and himself were childhood sweethearts, and they had come together in the years when they had no guesses. It's just that he didn't dare to say anything in this family, let alone resist, in a family that had no right to speak.

And in the end, Ye Chaoning finally looked like an ordinary person, even a vulgar man. was forced, but did not resist to marry another woman - Liu Ruyan.

Speaking of this willow like smoke, Su Mingyue was full of pain in her heart. Because this woman was once a good friend with Su Mingyue.

The two even went to the Yuelao Temple together during the Qiqiao Festival, holding hands and making a worldly wish. It's just that Su Mingyue never thought that one day, Liu Ruyan would serve a husband with her. In Su Mingyue's cognition, it shouldn't be like this, no matter how good the relationship between the two is, love and lovers are absolutely impossible to share with others.

Therefore, although it was a big fuss, Su Mingyue was defeated after all, and she had the reputation of a jealous woman, and Liu Ruyan finally married into this Ye Mansion and became Ye Chaoning's second wife.

When Liu Ruyan first married into the Ye Mansion, she still had good respect for Su Mingyue, the eldest lady, and groveled. But as time went by, Su Mingyue couldn't let go, and she was not a person who was good at getting along with the Ye family's elders and concubines. Therefore, soon, that Liu Ruyan climbed onto Su Mingyue's head, and her eight-sided delicate personality was even more popular with the Ye family's elders. It seems that she has become more helpful to Ye Chaoning.

In particular, this Liu Ruyan's mother family is also quite powerful, and it can be regarded as a rich party. What made Su Mingyue fall to the bottom even more was that Liu Ruyan became pregnant not long after she entered. This made Ye Chaoning also ecstatic, and even the time to go out became less, and he stayed by Liu Ruyan's side all day long, inseparable. The care for Su Mingyue was naturally diluted a lot, and he couldn't even think of going to Su Mingyue's room for a few days.

Su Mingyue's heart spends every day in torment, washing her face all day long, and she can't help herself. But she is a stubborn woman and refuses to bow her head.

Since the husband can no longer meet the expected warmth, he puts all his energy on perfumery. After all, she was also nurtured by her father and brother since she was a child, especially her sensitivity to all kinds of fragrances is actually far better than that of her father and brother. It's just that for the sake of being a woman, her talent is not taken seriously.
