Nanwangfu, Qingyue Residence.

Ye Zhiwei checked the accounts of Shuxiangyuan and Honey Fang, and crooked by the window to tease the little eagle falcon to pass the time.

This hairy little beast has been coming and going freely since its full wings, and it has stayed in the village most of the time, and today somehow came to Qingyueju, standing on the windowsill and pretending to be a fledgling, with its mouth wide open to let her feed fresh meat to herself.

Ye Zhiwei asked Xiaolian to bring fresh meat and fed it with her hands.

At this moment, the mother-in-law who came to the courtyard sent a post, and Xiaolian stepped forward to take it and take a look, it was actually Ye Xuelian, the second lady of the Zhenguo Mansion, who handed it in.

Ye Zhiwei was not surprised, and said, "Is the second lady here too?" "Like this, the ladies who have not been out of the cabinet usually have to be accompanied by their elders when they visit the house.

The mother-in-law shook her head, "I didn't see it, only Miss Ye Er was alone." ”

Xiaolian pursed her mouth, "Night owls enter the house and come for nothing." ”

Ye Zhiwei couldn't help but be amused by Xiaolian's resentful appearance, and quipped, "I haven't said anything as the master, but you girl complained." ”

Xiaolian was not afraid of her, and retorted, "What the slave said is the truth, what kind of person is the second lady, the princess, you know best in your heart, at the beginning in the Zhenguo Mansion, she had no friendship with us, and now she suddenly came to the door, I am afraid that she has ulterior motives." ”

Ye Zhiwei smiled faintly and ordered, "I know in my heart, you go and bring her in." ”

With her current identity, she is not afraid that Ye Xuelian will be able to turn over the sky.

Xiaolian reluctantly went out and went to the gate of the Nanwang Mansion to welcome Ye Xuelian into the door.

Ye Xue even entered Qingyue Residence, Ye Zhiwei deliberately did not let people take her to the living room, but attracted her to the main house, firstly to show closeness, and secondly, to test the second cousin's mind.

Liu Yan stood at the door with four second-class maids beside him, and saw Ye Xue even saluting respectfully: "Second Miss An." ”

Ye Xue let out a "hmm", raised her chin slightly, and walked past them.

It is said that the regulations of the Nanwang Mansion and the Zhenguo Mansion are not much different, but because of the relationship between the Nanwang prince on the Qingyue Residence, all the expenses are carefully selected, and the clothes and jewelry on the first-class maids are even comparable to those ordinary ladies from rich and noble families.

Ye Xuelian glanced at Xiaolian who was leading the way beside her, when she was in the Zhenguo Mansion, Xiaolian was the big girl next to Ye Zhiwei, so shabby that she looked like a broken household, but now, looking at her wearing eight Luo skirts with prosperous brocade, and an enamel butterfly hairpin on her head, the sapphire on the hairpin was the size of a pigeon's egg.

Entering the main house, there is a double-sided embroidery of eight hundred cranes embroidered screen, the waist is placed on the high flower table with gold lacquer unicorn eight orifices incense tripod, the landing green jade entwined branch lotus pattern bottle inserts a few branches of flowers that have just been picked down in the morning, when passing by, faintly can smell a faint fragrance.

Ye Zhiwei sat on the seven-screen couch chair in Guanghanmu, with her chin hanging slightly, her expression quiet and comfortable.

Ye Xuelian's gaze swept over the hollow flat square of the gold inlaid beads on Ye Zhiwei's head, the purple pearl was so big and round, she had never seen it before, and then remembered the royal blue crystal hairpin on her head, although it was also luxurious, but it was very ordinary.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a trace of jealousy and unwillingness in her heart.

Why is she so good-fated, she has no father or mother, but she can marry so well, looking at her current appearance, where is she still the thin and small third lady in the former Zhenguo Mansion.

"Third sister...... Ye Xue forced a smile on her face and called out affectionately.

Ye Zhiwei sat motionless, as if the person Ye Xuelian had just called was not her.

Xiaolian's face sank and said, "Second Miss, you have to call our master the princess now." ”

A hint of embarrassment flashed on Ye Xuelian's face, and Xiaolian added, "This is the rule." ”

Ye Xuelian had to lower her head, "The princess." ”

Ye Zhiwei smiled faintly, "Second cousin, please take a seat." ”

Immediately, a maid on the side moved a chair and put it in Ye Zhiwei's hand, Xiaolian and Liu Yan stood on Ye Zhiwei's side, they just served Ye Zhiwei, and Ye Xue was even greeted by the second-class maids in the courtyard.

Ye Xuelian looked at the plates of various seasonal fresh fruits on the table, as well as the various snacks in the honey shop, and couldn't help but envy: "The princess is really bitter now, and this little day is really nourishing." ”

Ye Zhiwei picked up the teacup, just smiled, and did not answer.

Whether she is doing well or not, she really has nothing to do with those people in the Zhenguo Mansion.

Ye Xue even saw that Ye Zhiwei just laughed and didn't talk, so she had to take the initiative to talk about the Zhenguo Mansion.

"Grandfather's body is still strong, but he has a lot of worry about his eldest brother." Ye Xuelian sighed, "He wanted to learn to do business by himself, but he didn't want to lose it, and now he owes a lot of foreign debts, and he is about to kill my mother......" Saying that, Ye Xuelian peeked at the expression on Ye Zhiwei's face.

Ye Zhiwei drank tea slowly, without even a half concerned expression on her face.

Ye Xuelian couldn't help but be secretly surprised, it is said that the woman who marries out is her mother's family behind her, so if something happens to her mother's family, the girl who marries out will try her best to help her mother's family solve it, but her three sisters are good, sitting here as if nothing is wrong.

Ye Xuelian's head couldn't help but have a layer of fine sweat floating on her head.

"The eldest brother now owes foreign debts, and he is about to dare not even go home." Ye Xue said sadly, "I heard my mother say that he owes more than 10,000 taels of silver, and I don't dare to let my grandfather know about it now, for fear of making him ......angry."

"Ten thousand taels of silver?" Ye Zhiwei finally spoke up, "Why does he owe so much money?" ”

"It's not because he bid for dried chili peppers from Shuxiangyuan......" Ye Xuelian peeked at Ye Zhiwei's face again, "By the way, I heard that the princess is the owner of Shuxiangyuan, so we are all a family, my mother is your second aunt, I used to look up and not look down in the house, and the princess can help solve it as long as she stretches out her hand." ”

Ye Zhiwei put the tea cup in her hand back on the saucer, and the celadon collided with a crisp "dangchang" sound.

"The second cousin also thinks too highly of me." The smile on Ye Zhiwei's face was gone, "What does it mean to stretch out your hand to help solve it?" That's 10,000 taels of silver! ”

Ye Xue shrank her shoulders continuously, "I heard from my mother that your Shuxiang Garden can earn thousands of taels a day......

"Not bad." Ye Zhiwei raised her eyebrows, "It's not just Shuxiangyuan, I'll tell you the truth, even the honey fang is in my name, and 10,000 taels is really nothing to me." ”

Ye Xuelian's eyes widened in shock, what did she hear just now, even the Honey Workshop was in her name! How did they not know about such a big thing before?

"But no matter how much money I make, it's mine, why should I help my eldest brother pay off his debts?"

Ye Xuelian was surprised, "Because you are also married from the Zhenguo Mansion, if your grandfather is not there in the future, the eldest brother will think about inheriting your love, and you will have a good relationship in the future, right?" ”

Ye Zhiwei suddenly laughed out loud.

Rely on? If she had relied on them as her own, she was afraid that her bones would have been gone.
