Outside the gate of the Hou Mansion, the carriage stopped. Ye Mengmeng's master and servant said goodbye to Chen Wu and walked into the Hou Mansion.

After driving for such a long time, Ye Mengmeng had already felt a faint tingling pain in the wound, guessing that the wound should have cracked.

In order not to worry Mrs. Hou, they quietly entered the house through the side door, and after entering the house, they did not make a noise, but ran directly to the backyard Ye Mengmeng's own yard, and did not alarm Hou Ye and Wen.

The courtyard was quiet, and there was no figure to be seen, and the master and servant had just stepped on the stone stairs, when they happened to bump into a big girl with a long face and freckles on her face coming out of the wing. It was Biyue.

When Biyue saw that it was them, her eyes widened in surprise.

"Miss, you, are you back?"

"Hmm," Ye Mengmeng nodded, and walked straight to the back room. Yun Die also followed.

"Miss......" Biyue wanted to follow, but Yundie slammed the door shut.

Biyue bit her lip in confusion, thought about it, and hurriedly turned around and ran out of the yard.

As soon as the door was closed, Yun Die skillfully took out the wound medicine in the bag, and changed the medicine for the young lady neatly.

As soon as the medicine was changed, Wen rushed over.

It turned out that Hou Ye and Ye Chengxuan's father and son were not in the house today, and only the Wen family had lunch alone, and suddenly Biyue came to spread the word that the eldest lady had returned home.

Wen was anxious for her daughter, and she didn't have the heart to eat, so she hurriedly put down the bowl and ran to her daughter's yard happily.

As soon as he saw his daughter sitting in the room dignifiedly, Wen's heart was half relieved, he jumped up and hugged his daughter, crying heartily, and looked up at his daughter left and right, up and down, until he finally confirmed that his daughter was intact, and then he really let go of his heart.

"Amitabha! Bodhisattva bless! Wen clasped his hands together. The prince came back with a message saying that you were injured, but you scared half of your mother's life. I want someone to pick you up, but I don't have a reliable person. Your father and eldest brother went to other provinces to do errands and didn't come back, and my mother didn't have anyone to talk to, so it's okay now...... Mother just needs to be sure that you are healthy and fine, and you can rest assured. Child, let my mother take a good look at you, the prince said that you were injured, where was the injury? Let my mother see? ”

"Mother, my daughter is fine." Ye Mengmeng said. "The prince is exaggerating, where is the injury? It's just that my foot is twisted, and it's a little difficult to walk, but now it's better......"

"Twisted foot?" Wen's brow furrowed. "Mengmeng, don't you want to fool me, a twisted foot doesn't affect the carriage, why is it delayed for two days?"

"Mother, really, I didn't lie to you. We should have come back the night before, but our carriage suddenly broke down, and we had to stay in town to repair it. However, it was raining again, so it was delayed. ”

"I see, but I am worried to death." Wen looked at her daughter carefully, and saw that although her chin was a little sharper, her face was ruddy and her eyebrows were picturesque, and she was as delicate as a rose in the morning. When I come back this time, I am not allowed to go out, and I will stay at home. You are not allowed to take care of Zhuangzi's affairs in the future, and when your eldest brother is busy for this period of time, he will hand it over to your eldest brother. ”

"Mother, do you want me to be grounded?" Ye Mengmeng hugged her mother's waist and was coquettish.

"Hmph, you still know about grounding? Zhuangzi is so far away from the capital, coming and going all the way bumpy, where can you stand the toss of a little girl's house? During these days, stay at home obediently to recuperate, don't go anywhere, and see how thin your little face has become. ”

"Mother, are you wrong? Where is the weight loss? ”

"Still say no? Look at your face and your arms, next to each other, ......"

"Mother, won't you? I've only been away from home for a few days, and I'm going to be in trouble? Could it be you......" Ye Mengmeng suddenly paused and looked at the old lady in a daze.

"Hmph, you are your mother's daughter, you can tell at a glance whether you are fat or thin. Don't worry, my mother promises that she will raise you in a few days. Ha ha! Wen was in a really good mood and couldn't help but laugh.

"......" Ye Mengmeng was speechless. Mother, do you think it's pig breeding? Aren't you afraid to make me fat? ”

"It's good to be fat, it's healthy to be fat! Ha ha! ”

"Mother!" Ye Mengmeng's head was full of black lines, "Did you deliberately trap me?" Do you think your daughter can't get married? I can tell you, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't like fat women. ”

"He dares!" Wen's face turned pale, and he snorted, "The emperor's order is not up to him!" ”

"......" Ye Mengmeng was even more speechless.

Wen coaxed her daughter and said, "Good daughter, what do you want to eat, let my mother let the kitchen do it?" ”

"Anything, mother, I'm not hungry yet."

"Nonsense, how can you not be hungry after sitting in a carriage for so long?" Wen turned his head and instructed the girl beside him, "Caixia, you go to the kitchen and ask someone to make a bowl of pigeon hibiscus soup for Miss." Remember, don't mix too much water. ”

"Yes, ma'am!"

The mother and daughter sat next to each other and gossiped again. Ye Mengmeng suddenly remembered something and asked, "Mother, you just said that my father and eldest brother went to other provinces, why did they go?" ”

"What else can you do?" Wen glanced at his daughter. "It's not your business yet."

"My business? What can I do? Ye Mengmeng was inexplicable.

"You, what a heartless little thing!" Wen poked her daughter's forehead and said angrily, "You are going to enter the palace in three months, and you enter the palace with white eyebrows and bare eyes?" So many chores that don't need to be done? There is no other trustworthy person in our Hou Mansion, only your father and eldest brother went to run in person. ”

Ye Mengmeng was stunned: "Mother, the prince's wedding...... Isn't it the palace that is in charge? What's the matter with us? ”

"Tsk," Wen tilted his head to look at his daughter, looking like an idiot. "Silly girl, that's what you said too? Our Hou Mansion is marrying a daughter, when you go out, don't you need a rich dowry, no cumbersome three books and six ceremonies? What do you think it is? What does it matter to us! According to my estimate, after your wedding this time, your father and your eldest brother will only be afraid that they will lose half their lives. ”

Ye Mengmeng was stunned for a while, sighed, and said, "Mother, why bother so much?" Just prepare something meaningful, wouldn't it be okay? ”

"How's that going to work?" Wen's voice was surprised. "In this life, a woman can do anything, but this dowry can't be casual. Do you know why? ”

Ye Mengmeng shook her head.

"You, everything my mother said to you before was in vain. If a woman marries into her husband's family, if the dowry is poor, her husband's family will look down on her. In the future, they will bring you small shoes to wear. The more and more elaborate the dowry, the higher your status in your in-laws' family will be. ”

"But, mother, am I not married to the prince? The emperor's family is also doing this? ”

Ye Mengmeng asked. Was she deceived by the palace fighting drama? That's obviously not how it is played on TV.
