The eldest lady raised her hand in front of everyone and slapped the maid.

The sound was particularly harsh in the noisy banquet.

The eldest lady only felt that all the blood in her body was bubbling and bubbling, as if it was about to boil.

At that moment, she suddenly heard a man's chuckle behind her.

"Heh......" The voice was distinctly mocking, and undisguised.

She turned her head sharply, not wanting to meet a pair of falcon-like eyes, startling her.

It was a man in his twenties, dressed in a royal blue brocade robe, embroidered with sea cliffs at the hem of his shirt, and a wild aura faintly exuded from his body, his face had a pair of sharp eagle eyes, and his eyes seemed to hide a raging flame.

The eldest lady was stared at by him uncomfortably, and subconsciously took a step back.

The man sneered again, and walked impolitely close to her side, almost knocking her to the ground.

The maid on the side hurriedly supported the eldest lady.

There was a faint sound of the ladies talking in the banquet.

"The man just now...... Could it be General Yan? ”

"He is an upstart beside the prince, and he is very trusted by the prince, so he was transferred to the capital not long ago."

"I heard that he wants to choose a wife among the various prefectures in the capital."

"On the way, I saw him ask others about the eldest lady of the Zhenguo Mansion."

"Ye Yaoqin?"

"Shh......h The eldest lady's chest was bitten by a horse...... I guess there are still traces of that......"

The ladies covered their mouths with champas, and smiled lowly, their expressions were flying, and the corners of their eyes were about to reach the sky.

The eldest lady listened to it on the side, but her heart was sullen.

Why hadn't she heard of that General Yan? If he is really a celebrity in front of the prince, if his own woman follows him, there will definitely be no mistake.

Since she was injured at the racecourse last time, she knew that Yaoqin's dream of marrying the British king had been shattered, but if her man could compete for the position of grandfather, Yaoqin's identity was still very valuable in the eyes of some people......

Thinking of this, the eldest lady suddenly became anxious, she didn't care about sending someone to find out what Zhen Guogong said when he took those people around Ye Zhiwei to the study, but sent people to chase General Yan who had just left as quickly as possible.

"Be courteous!" The eldest lady whispered to the little maid who did the work for her.

The little guy seemed to do this kind of errand often, and soon ran out, and after a while, he caught up with General Yan, who had not yet left the house.

He was just about to step forward, when he suddenly heard the entourage beside General Yan say: "Why did the general leave suddenly, the banquet is not over yet, didn't you say before that you wanted to meet the eldest lady in the mansion?" ”

General Yan sneered: "I thought she would be the woman I wanted, but now it seems that I was wrong." ”

The entourage was puzzled, "Didn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince say that soon the uncle in this mansion will get the position of grandfather?" At that time, she will be a young lady, and her identity will match you. ”

"The identity is compatible......" Yan Chengming slanted the corners of his mouth, revealing a disdainful smile, "But she has such a mother, she must not be smart." ”

The little guy who originally wanted to catch up and say some soft words couldn't help but be stunned there.

Yan Chengming suddenly turned around, looked at the little guy, and coldly spit out two words: "Something?" ”

"I didn't ...... No! The little guy took two steps back in fright, not wanting to be knocked by the stone slab under his feet and almost tripped to the ground.

Yan Chengming raised his head and laughed, not saving any face for others at all.

The little girl retreated in a hurry, but she made up her mind in her heart that she must not tell the eldest lady what she had just done.

The people in the house all knew that the eldest lady was angry, so they all strengthened their spirits, and even walked carefully, for fear of touching the mold.

But that's it, a few maids in the eldest lady's yard still can't escape the fate of being beaten.

That night, a little servant secretly told the eldest lady the news he heard from the study of the town of Guogong, "The grandfather of the country sent a gold steward to take a lot of food and daily necessities from the big treasury, and asked him to send it to the village in person." ”

The corners of the eldest lady's mouth twisted fiercely, and when she saw the little girl's flickering and hesitant gaze, she couldn't help but say angrily: "What's more!" ”

The little guy couldn't hide it, so he could only bite the bullet and say, "There is still ...... Grandpa Guo also rewarded the third lady with a lot of silver tickets and jade and other things......"

The eldest lady only felt a buzzing in her head.

She wanted to let that girl starve to death on Zhuangzi, but who knows where she got such a complete tiger skeleton, not to mention, she could quietly avoid the housekeeper mother she sent, and suddenly sent something under her nose.

Today, in front of so many guests, it was like a slap in the face, even though she knew that Ye Zhiwei's people were lying, but no one wanted to hear her defense.

She thought that even if Ye Zhiwei really came back with her mother, she would cry and kneel in front of her, begging for forgiveness.

But in the end, in front of everyone, the embarrassed person was actually himself.

Zhen Guogong is now asking people to go to the village to deliver things, which is basically to confirm her reputation for harshly criticizing orphan girls!

She jerked to her feet, "No! You can't let your father send things to the village! ”

Uncle Ye Dongzhou sat cross-legged on the Luohan bed, and said unhappily: "What are you tossing, how can your father's decision be influenced by you?" ”

"But...... How can I swallow this breath! The eldest lady shivered angrily, and suddenly felt stuffy, so she casually picked up a cup of tea from the table, but when she drank it, she found that it was already cold.

She didn't think about it, so she poured the tea on the maid on the side and scolded: "You lazy people, you dare to treat me slowly now!" See that I don't tear your mouths! ”

Seeing this, several mothers-in-law hurriedly stepped forward and dragged the maids out.

After a while, the miserable cries of the maids sounded outside the courtyard, and there was a mess inside and outside the house, and all the subordinates were so frightened that they didn't even dare to come out, until the mothers-in-law disposed of those maids, which gradually stopped.

As soon as the eldest lady sat down and was smooth, a small servant outside the door came to report: "The gold steward has arrived." ”

The eldest lady was stunned for a moment.

In her memory, the financial steward in the house didn't have much power, because he didn't have good footsteps, so she usually looked at him with a straight eye, and naturally it was not his turn to do important things, why did he suddenly come at this time?

She was stunned, Jin Mingyang limped in from outside, and calmly greeted Uncle Ye Dongzhou first, and then saluted the Li family.

The eldest lady frowned and said, "It's so late, what's the matter with the gold manager?" ”

Jin Mingyang's body was pressed low, with a respectful attitude, "Originally, the little one didn't dare to disturb the eldest lady's rest, but Grandpa Guo was in a hurry...... The little ones can only come to the eldest lady to get the key to the big storehouse. ”

The big treasury is locked in all good treasures, usually the middle feed in this house is all held by her in her hands, never fake the hands of others, why is it that now suddenly the Zhenguo people asked her for the key to the big warehouse......

"I don't know what old things my father wants to find, why don't I go and help him find them at the old man's house tomorrow." She didn't want to hand over the keys at all.

"No need." Jin Mingyang said: "It's Grandpa Guo who feels sorry for the third lady, so he wants to pick something out of the big treasury and send it to Zhuangshang with help." ”

"What?" The eldest lady almost jumped up from the Luohan bed, and the teapot on the table was knocked over by her, and the tea splashed all over her.

At this time, her heart felt like someone had dug up a piece of flesh, and it hurt terribly.
