Chapter Twenty-Three: Rediscovering the Dead

Looking at the dishes on the table, I saw that they were gorgeous and exquisite, and when you taste them, they are even more delicious. There are four kinds of dim sum on a small plate on a single table: tea knife cut, almond bergamot, crispy apple, and Heyi cake, and the four appetizers are Hongzi shredded chicken cucumber, Fuzi melon roasted tenderloin, 10,000-character spicy belly shredded, and Nianzi mushroom cabbage.

The main dishes include anchovy shark fin, red plum beads, kung pao hare, eight treasure duck, bergamot golden roll, fried shredded cuttlefish, hydrangea dried scallops, fried guinea fowl, fish fillet with milk sauce, dried sea cucumber, mushroom duck paw, colorful beef tenderloin, sake rich chicken, in addition to the blue stem fragrant rice, there are all kinds of dumplings, such as pea yellow, sesame roll, gold cake, jujube mud cake, and five kinds of desserts, for the ladies who love to eat snacks: longan lotus seed lily porridge, ginkgo osmanthus soup, back to sand taro, rock sugar snow fungus coconut cup, peach fresh shell almond cup.

After this meal, although there are not many dishes, and the dishes are not very expensive, but there are all kinds of seasonal ingredients in spring, summer, autumn and winter, and the people here are not stupid, and they know that they can have such skills except for the royal family, and they don't think about it, it seems that this birthday banquet must be the handiwork of the queen mother and his old man, and the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion is really a grand grace!

There were also many noble ladies at the banquet who came to talk, asking nothing more than Ye Tanghua's marriage and Ye Yunxiang's identity of Ye Tanyou, but they were all blocked back by Ye Mu's family, one Ye Mu's self-esteem, and he didn't look down on these identities as if they were not as good as the people in Weiyuan's Hou's Mansion, she wanted to seek a better home for her Tang'er, and Ye Mu's also had her own selfishness - there are four young masters in Weiyuan's Hou's Mansion who have never married wives, isn't it better to be close to each other? As for Ye Yunxiang and Ye Tanyou, Ye Mushi really doesn't care about it, these two children have neither family nor blood relationship with her, just like two strangers, why should she worry about them?

And Ye Tanghua looked at this room full of celebrities and beauties and only felt depressed, in the previous life, these women had been around her as they were today, but after she insisted on marrying Xu Tianya, she was like birds and beasts, and she was afraid of her, she was lonely for several years, and now she couldn't help but feel dazzling when she saw this lively scene, and after thinking about it, she beckoned the rain to come: "I may have eaten too much wine today, and I was very dizzy, I went out to breathe, and someone asked me to say that I went to Xiaojie, you know?" ”

The rain and rain and dew are waiting impatiently, hearing this, Ye Tanghua quietly left the table, stepped into the garden from the back door, and shivered as soon as he went out, it turned out that the sky did not know when a piece of snowflakes had flown up, circling and falling in the air, Ye Tanghua trembled, tightened the feather satin cloak on his body, and walked to the depths of the plum garden.

Because at this moment, the main attention of the Marquis of Weiyuan Mansion was on the birthday banquet, so Ye Tanghua did not encounter any obstacles, she rubbed her hands, kept breathing into the palms of her hands, and continued to walk into the depths of the plum garden, hoping that thing was still there......

She vaguely remembered that five years ago when her grandmother's birthday banquet, she and a little boy who came to celebrate his birthday to play in the yard, the two of them were very deed, but the little boy was going home soon, and he could hardly go out before the age of eighteen, she was not very happy, afraid that he would forget her from now on, so he agreed to bury the most precious thing of the two people under a plum tree, and he would dig it out together at the age of eighteen five years later. When she remembered it the next day, the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion did not allow her to enter the door at all, and she went to look under the plum tree, only to find that there was only a pit and her little butterfly jade pendant left......

This incident has always been a hurdle in her heart, and this time she has the opportunity to make up for it, and she will not let herself be a perfidious person again.

She tightened her cloak and searched for the tree in her memory, which, if she remembered correctly, was in the deepest part of the plum garden...... The more she walked, the more worried she became, five years ago she was just a seven-year-old child, no one would tell her any nonsense, now she is twelve years old, and the former little boy is also eighteen years old, if someone bumps into them in the plum garden for a private meeting......

Her heart beat faster in an instant, and her brows were furrowed, secretly hating herself for being too reckless, and actually doing such a thing that she didn't know how to advance or retreat, this time as long as she took the little jade pendant and left, there would definitely be no delay......

"It's really here." Suddenly, a male voice full of ridicule sounded in her ears, making her tremble in fright, and turned around and took a few steps back: "What to do!" ”

"Oops, little rabbit, I haven't seen you for five years, why are you becoming more and more like a little rabbit, so intimidating?" The man in black accepted the folding fan that he wanted to knock on the top of her head, and instead knocked it on his palm, and said with a smile.

Ye Tanghua pursed her lips and said unconvinced: "People who still shake fans in the winter are not qualified to talk about me!" ”

"Yay? Why are you still so sharp-tongued after five years? Didn't you say that the Marquis of Weiyuan's Mansion specializes in girls with good rules? The man's eyebrows were frowning, and the little melancholy that seemed to be there made Ye Tanghua almost stunned, how come five years have passed, this person has grown from a little boy to a big demon?

She pouted: "The rules have a fart? If there are rules in this world, what else do you need the law for? Rules can control people, but they can't control hearts. No matter how strict the rules are, they can't prevent people's hearts from being sinister. ”

The man was stunned, and then couldn't help laughing, he stretched out his hand and rubbed it on the top of Ye Tanghua's head: "At a young age, how can you talk bitterly and hatefully?" Has anyone harmed you? Say it, and the lord will give you anger! ”

Ye Tanghua avoided his hand angrily: "I don't need you to be angry with me, whose master are you!" After saying that, he glared at him, his eyes rolled and he smiled again: "You just said that I was a little rabbit, and now you say that you are my master, so aren't you a rabbit master?" Haha......" She smiled and bent over, covering her stomach with one small hand, and rubbing the tears of laughter with the other, but the man opposite looked stunned.

"You've grown up too......" he muttered to himself.

"You haven't grown up at all, you're still like a child." Ye Tanghua pursed her lips angrily, turned her head to look for the plum tree, she walked under a plum tree by impression, but found that the small mound under the plum tree had been dug up, and some clods of soil were scattered on the ground, she turned her head angrily and glared at the man in black: "Don't keep your promise!" Say you'll dig it together and give it back to me! ”

The man in black frowned: "That's because I thought you weren't coming...... Then again, you're so stingy, I buried my most precious thing in it, and you buried what kind of tattered jade pendant? ”

"It's not a tattered jade pendant! The little butterfly jade pendant is a warm jade, which my mother used to warm my hands, which is very precious! Ye Tanghua bit her lower lip and glared at the man again.

"Warm your hands?" The man in black's gaze fell on Ye Tanghua's little hand, and he walked over and shook it: "It's really cold." ”

"You are presumptuous!" Ye Tanghua was startled, and hurriedly put his hands behind his back, staring at the man with a panicked expression.

How dare this person, this person be so rude in the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion?

"Hehe, the little girl is quite wary, I'm not interested in a yellow-haired girl like you." The man in black sneered, and Ye Tanghua's reaction obviously aroused his competitive spirit.

He tore off a jade plaque from his waist and threw it at Ye Tanghua: "It's also a warm jade, take it and warm your hands." ”

"I don't want your things, you give me back the jade pendant!" Ye Tanghua's face changed, could it be that Aunt Li found out about her agreement with this man in this life, and wanted to detain her for a private charge?

"I'm not very old, and there are quite a lot of taboos, but I was born in the Marquis of Weiyuan's mansion." The man smiled, touched Ye Tanghua's head with the advantage of height, took a few steps back while she was dodging, and jumped to the outer wall of the plum garden at once, and disappeared into the vast night in a few ups and downs, leaving Ye Tanghua alone.

Ye Tanghua stroked the warm jade card, only to feel that the jade card was so warm that it was like a hot potato.

It's just a little butterfly jade pendant, and she's been like this for five years, and she's worried that if this jade card is discovered, then she really can't wash it by jumping into the Yellow River!

Can't leave this thing behind......

Ye Tanghua thought negatively, but after looking at the jade card in her hand, she changed her mind again.

lost Xiao Yupei for no reason, can't she get some compensation? Deal...... Let's just say that I bought it on the street.

Ye Tanghua made up her mind like this, thought about it, turned around and folded a low plum blossom, and walked back along the way she came, but what Ye Tanghua didn't know was that she only left the banquet for a short while, but in the future, she almost saved her life because of this short time.

When Ye Tanghua returned to the warm pavilion, just in time for the banquet to end, to her surprise, at this time, Ye Yunxiang and Ye Tanyou had already sat in front of the old lady of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, smiling shyly and eagerly.

She was surprised that these two people had won the eyes of the old lady so quickly, and she heard the earnest laughter of Mrs. Xipinghou: "Old lady, these granddaughters of your family are really lovely people, as the saying goes, one side of the water and soil raises one person, this Jiangnan girl's family is really Peugeot, I love it very much, but it's a pity that I wasn't born in Jiangnan!" ”

I see......

Ye Tanghua nodded secretly, is it the credit of Mrs. Xiping Hou again? These two sisters actually climbed the high branches of Xipinghou, but why is Mrs. Xipinghou willing to accept them? It's the first time they've met......

"Mrs. Hou praised it falsely, and she didn't dare to be ashamed." Ye Tanyou's posture was elegant, and he bowed slightly, and his pretended to be reserved won the eyes of the old lady.

"Although they came back from Jiangnan, the rules are not wrong, Ning'er has to take good care of them." The old lady raised her eyes lovingly, looked at Ye Mushi and commanded.

"Mother rest assured, Ning'er can save it, there is really nothing wrong with the rules of these two children, and they are good material that can be adjusted." Ye Mushi smiled softly, unable to see joy, anger and sorrow.
