Chapter XVIII: A New Trick
On this day, when Ye Tanghua went to ask for peace, she accidentally found that Aunt Li actually took Ye Yunxiang Ye Tanyou to her mother's yard early, at this time they were talking about something around her mother, and there was a bit of flattery in her expression, Ye Mushi saw Ye Tanghua coming, and after she saluted, she beckoned her to sit closer, and said to her with a smile: "The second day of the lunar month is your grandmother's birthday, yesterday evening your grandfather sent someone to send a post over, inviting our mother and daughter to the house for a banquet, your aunt wants to beg us to bring your two sisters there, what do you think?" β
Ye Tanghua was stunned for a moment, and a thunderclap exploded in her heart, grandma's birthday banquet has arrived!
How could she forget? In the previous life, at the first birthday banquet of her grandmother after her father came back, she and her cousin Mu Mingcheng's fiancΓ©e Fu Lingyang had a big fight, which not only made Weiyuan Marquis Mansion and her mother lose face, but also made herself the name of a shrew, God knows that she only had such a fight in her previous life, but the name of this shrew followed her all her life, so that when Jingli mentioned her name Ye Tanghua, she thought of neither the granddaughter of the Marquis of Weiyuan's mansion, nor the eldest daughter of Ye Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, but a rude and willful shrew!
In the previous life, she only hated herself for being too unfocused, and she went to the lake as soon as her cousin, who had a slight affection, and fought with the people, ruining her reputation, but she didn't think there was Aunt Li's calculation in this matter!
Ye Tanghua looked at Aunt Li, bent her eyebrows, and wanted Ye Yunxiang and Ye Tanyou to go to the banquet to see the world, and use her Ye Tanghua's brutality and pungency to set off the gentleness and generosity of these two concubines? Aunt Li's abacus is good, in this case, it is a pity that she doesn't make good use of it, but before letting Aunt Li get her wish, she still needs to teach her a small lesson, otherwise she will fulfill Aunt Li's wish so easily, and it is difficult to guarantee that she will not be suspicious.
She wants Aunt Li to lose in a defenseless and even complacent mood!
Ye Tanghua sneered in her heart, but her face pretended to be coquettish: "Mother, are you in a bad mood today?" β
Ye Mushi and Aunt Li were stunned for a moment, they didn't understand why Ye Tanghua asked like this, Aunt Li had a request for Ye Mu's today, of course, she wouldn't be stupid enough to make Ye Mu's angry, but she tried her best to make Ye Mu's laugh, Ye Mu's mood was indeed good, but Ye Muhua's appearance didn't look like a joke, Ye Mu's raised his hand and touched Ye Tanghua's head: "Tang'er, why do you say that?" β
Ye Tanghua blinked her eyes and looked worried: "Grandpa sent someone to post yesterday evening, but my aunt learned the news this morning, and came to my mother's place early to ask my mother to take my sisters to play, did you send someone to tell my aunt this morning?" Then my aunt must not have slept, right? β
Ye Mu's face changed immediately, she glanced at Aunt Li, took a sip of the tea cup on the low table on the side, and said with a cold face: "Tang'er, my mother thinks that you have a good way to arrange people in your yard a few days ago, you can go later today, and see how the people in this courtyard will be arranged for your mother!" β
Aunt Li's originally smiling face froze at this time, she really made a mistake, just remembering to ask Ye Mushi to agree to take her two daughters to the banquet, but she forgot about the issue of time, Ye Mu's post received last night, she brought someone to beg Ye Mushi early this morning, didn't she show her fox tail, and clearly told Ye Mushi that there was someone in this courtyard who said that there was her?
Aunt Li bit her lower lip, and looked at Ye Tanghua with a somewhat gloomy gaze, originally she thought that Ye Mushi was the scheming person, Ye Tanghua was just a stupid girl who listened to her mother's words, but now it seems that Ye Mushi is not afraid, what she really needs to watch out for is this twelve-year-old girl!
She reluctantly smiled, she had to get this topic over, otherwise how could Ye Mushi take her daughter to the banquet? What kind of family is the Marquis of Weiyuan's mansion, and it can be regarded as a guest in such a house as a guest, so that it can be truly accepted by the aristocratic circle in the capital: "Actually, it was the maid Shanbao in my house who told me, saying that I saw a mother-in-law I didn't know in my wife's house, so I inquired with my sisters who knew each other, and came back to learn to tell me, and it was just a coincidence." β
Ye Tanghua nodded: "Well, my mother's yard is full of people brought back by my aunt from Jiangnan, it's really convenient for my aunt to know what news is, I don't need to disturb my mother's rest, just send a maid to ask, I can figure it out after a few words of gossip, I can't do it, my aunt is so amazing!" β
Aunt Li was choked half to death again, this Ye Tanghua's mouth is too powerful, it sounds like a child's unintentional words, but the words change outside the words to remind Ye Mu's that this house is full of people who came back from Jiangnan, and they don't listen to Ye Mu's words, but they are familiar with her......
Ye Mushi listened, hooked his lips and smiled: "This is natural, after all, my sister has disciplined them for so long, this cold change of master, they are afraid that they will not be used to it for a while, it is better not to get used to it, from now on, all the maids and women who come back from Jiangnan will be transferred to my sister to serve, and I will only use the maids I marry." β
