Chapter 093

found Mei's dowry booklet, Things were easy to do, Ye Qian called Ah Yuan's mother and son, "The third uncle may know you, he gave you something, whether it is a house or money, I don't care, but you can't take the third aunt's dowry."

Ah Yuan stared at Ye Qian angrily, Mei's dowry is so rich, she has coveted it for more than ten years, this has just arrived, is it going to be returned? "You can't do this, those were given to me by the third master!"

Ye Qian sneered, "Those are not the third uncle's, the third uncle has no right to move, let alone give it away, today I will take it back according to this dowry book, if you are not satisfied, just go and sue me." Her eyes fell on the jade rabbit hairpin on Ye Ru's head, and she got up and walked over and pulled it out, "This is the third aunt's, you can't wear it."

Ye Ru opened her mouth and cried, Ye Yan stared at Ye Qian, Ah Yuan was bitter in her heart, she didn't expect Ye Qian to be so difficult, She is Ji Pinghou's beloved daughter, the concubine of King Yu, even if she is full of guts, she doesn't dare to sue her. I knew that this was the case, I shouldn't have come here, I thought that I could easily become the mother of the Ye family's third room, and naturally inherit everything in the third room, but I didn't expect that stealing chickens would not succeed but would lose a handful of rice.

Ji Pinghou sent his own chief steward, took the dowry list, took the government soldiers, and went to the house in the outer room, and Ah Yuan's mother and son were stuffed in the carriage and brought back together. He sent someone to the execution ground to prepare to collect the body of Master Mei.

The next day, the patriarch brought over several boys who were willing to pass over, and those who had many sons and had a difficult life were naturally willing to pass over. Ye Qian didn't dare to hold it up, she didn't trust her own vision, she didn't have the confidence to pick people, and let her father and mother pick them together. In fact, the most suitable one is Ye Shuo, but that is Ji Pinghou's son, no one dares to mention this stubble, and they all tacitly forget.

Ji Pinghou called the boys into the study one by one, and finally set an eight-year-old, although he was younger, but he was better than a smart person, and had a good temperament, Ji Pinghou planned to send him to the academy to study in the future, and let him come to the Hou Mansion to live for a day at the end of every month, so that he could teach him. His original name was Ye Xun, but Ji Pinghou thought about it and didn't let him change his name and kept his real name.

Ye Qian called Ye Xun over and asked, only to know that his family was in difficulty, even if it was a family study, he had not been in school for a few days, Ye Qian discussed with his father, or he should invite him to a west seat first, and come to teach at home, otherwise he would be too difficult to go to the college, and he was afraid that he would not be comfortable with a younger child.

Ji Pinghou thought about it, anyway, Ye Shuo will invite Xixi next year, so just let Mr. teach the two.

The patriarch and several clan elders discussed the succession matter with Ji Pinghou, and discussed simply letting Ye Xun live in the Hou Mansion, and the Hou Ye could take the time to teach, after all, he was still young, so let him live here alone, without the elders watching, for fear that he would be coaxed into becoming crooked.

Ji Pinghou agreed, the person he personally selected, he believed in his own vision, Ye Xun lived in the Hou Mansion, and there would be no trouble in the future.

The matter was quickly decided, because Ye Xun was needed for the funeral, and the procedures for succession were officially completed on the same day, and Ye Xun, as the son of Ye Chengshu and Mei, was officially recorded on the family tree.

After the funeral, under the witness of the patriarch and the clan elders, the Meng family counted all the Mei dowries that were recovered one by one, got rid of the funeral and the burial of Lord Mei, and the rest were all called Ye Xun, "Brother Xun, these are all yours, but you are still young, your aunt will help you take care of it first, and you will be asked to read the accounts every year, and when Brother Xun turns eighteen years old, these will be handed over to Brother Xun." "A few people have already discussed, Ye Xun will continue to live in the Hou Mansion, and he will move out when he becomes a family, as for his expenses over the years, the Meng family plans to come out of the Hou Mansion, anyway, one more person is nothing.

"Thank you, auntie." Ye Xun bowed in a proper manner, but it didn't look standard.

Ye Qian touched his head with a smile, "Third brother, I'll teach you to read the account book." ”

Ye Xun's little face flushed and smiled shyly.

Ye Shuo looked at Ye Qian puzzled, "Sister, isn't the third brother me?" "Ye Li is the eldest brother, Ye Ji is the second brother, he is the third brother, why does the elder sister touch others and call the third brother?

Ye Qian laughed, "You used to be the third, but now Brother Qian'er is here, he is older than you, he is the third, and you are the fourth." ”

Ye Shuo thought about it and became happy, "Great, my sister is the fourth, I am also the fourth, I am the same as my sister!" His big dark eyes looked at Ye Qian excitedly, feeling closer to his sister.

"Yes, we're the same." Ye Qian took Ye Shuo's little hand, and grabbed Ye Xun with the other hand, "Let's go, the fourth sister will take you to eat grapes, the Yuwang Mansion just sent it, it's big and sweet, it's the best grape I've ever tasted." ”

Ye Shuo jumped to the ground, Ye Xun's ears were red, he didn't dare to look at Ye Qian, but his little hand quietly held her hand. Ye Li looked at his sister's back with a lot of taste, and wished that his sister would give birth to three hands and pull him up.

Ye Xun lived in the Hou Mansion, and the Meng family arranged his yard next to Ye Li, all in the outer courtyard. Ye Li had another 100-day vacation because of the death of the third uncle this time, and he was discussing the matter of release with the Ministry of War, which delayed it again.

Xixi hasn't been invited yet, they want to invite a gentleman with both ability and political integrity to teach Ye Shuo and Ye Xun a lesson, they can't settle, they can only find it slowly. The family took turns to teach Ye Xun, and Ji Pinghou taught him to read, read and write, he was the champion of the year, which was overkill for him. Ye Li taught him etiquette, Ye Qian was taught by him at the beginning, and he also taught Ye Xun to be caught, and occasionally taught him a few tricks to defend himself. Ye Qian took the time to teach him to read the account book, although he said that he would not lose his money if he didn't learn Meng, but there was always a benefit to learning, after all, he would have to take care of it himself when he became an adult.

There is an extra brother in the family, Ye Shuo is very rare, and Ye Li is also on vacation at home, there are two brothers at once, Ye Shuo can't wait to move to the outer courtyard to live by himself. Later, he learned to be smart, and after dinner, he went to play with his brother, and when he was tired from playing, he stayed on Ye Li's or Ye Xun's bed, and he could sleep with his brother at night. Meng Shi only told him not to eat too much, and he left the rest to him.

When the grapes in the Yuwang Mansion were ripe again, Ye Fu finally entered the prince's east palace.

The crown prince didn't give her the position of side concubine, a woman without any help, it would be good to be able to enter the East Palace, if it weren't for the fact that she had been with her for so many years, the prince would have long since ignored her, how could she give her the position of side concubine, just let her be the lowest level of Fengyi, even Liangdi and Liangyuan couldn't reach it.

Even if it was just a pink sedan chair that entered the East Palace silently, Ye Fu was also very happy. She originally wanted to enter the East Palace after the three-year filial piety period last autumn, but the third uncle happened to have another accident in the autumn, and it was another year of filial piety. She could feel that the prince had lost any interest in her, so she had to slap him tightly, if the prince didn't let her enter the East Palace, she would have to die of old age for the rest of her life.

So, even if it's just Fengyi, Ye Fu is very satisfied.

Ye Fu entered the East Palace, and the second wife Qi breathed a sigh of relief, the four-year filial piety period was finally over, and Ye Fu was finally picked up by the prince, and it was time for Yeats and Ye Rong next.

Yeats is fifteen years old this year, and she doesn't dare to delay any longer, but fortunately, although she is a concubine, she looks good.

Qi didn't plan to make a bad deal in Yeats's marriage, although she was not Yeats's biological mother, but she also understood in recent years that her daughter married well is also a help to the family, just look at Ye Qian, so she still hopes that Yeats can marry a good family.

"Sister Zhi'er, your eldest sister is out of the cabinet, it's your turn next." Qi called Yeats over, "You have reached the end of the year this year, and the marriage cannot be delayed any longer, although it is said that the marriage event is the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker, but the mother still wants to ask you what you mean." ”

Yeats quickly raised his head to look at Qi, and lowered his head again. Since her father's death, she has no one to rely on in this family, and she has always been worried that her grandmother will embarrass her, but fortunately, although she is not as good as Ye Fuye Rong, her grandmother does not treat her badly.

Qi also knows that she has always been like this, "Now you also know the situation of our family, according to your conditions, you can choose a concubine with better conditions, but good conditions at home are not all, generally after getting married, the concubines have to be divided out separately, when the family is divided, the concubines are not divided, and how to do it in the future depends on your own ability." Or, you can choose a sister-in-law with worse conditions, but it is still impossible for a poor student, even Xiucai knows how to marry a daughter-in-law, not to mention lifting people, if it is just a child, a child who has reached the age of marriage, I am really not optimistic. ”

Yeats lowered her head and was speechless for a while, she also knew her own situation, but she was a little unwilling.

Qi sighed, "You go back and think about it, and then reply to me after thinking about it." ”

Yeats left, and the Qi family sent someone to call Ye Rong again, she is fourteen years old this year, and it is time to discuss marriage, but she didn't expect that as soon as she started, Ye Rong resolutely refused, "I don't marry." ”

"You child, how can there be a woman who doesn't marry." Qi thought she was playing with her temper, "My mother doesn't want to marry you to a concubine, no matter what the family conditions are, you have to be a concubine." ”

"I, no, marry, man." Ye Rong said firmly: "If my mother has to force me to marry, I will cut my hair and become a sister-in-law." ”

"You, you damn girl! Are you going to me off?! Only then did Qi Shi understand that she was serious, "Do you know what you're talking about, now this family is still in charge of me, and you are in your own home." In the future, after a hundred years, your brother will marry a wife, and you will live in your brother and sister-in-law's house, do you know how embarrassing it is for a sister-in-law to live in my brother's sister-in-law's house? ”

Ye Rong was silent for a moment, "Mother, don't worry, when the embarrassing day comes, I will cut my hair and be a sister-in-law." ”

She's ready to be a sister-in-law! Qi was so angry that he almost fainted, and he persuaded him for a long time, but Ye Rong didn't change his words. Qi sighed heavily, "I have explained the pros and cons to this to you clearly, don't be so dead, go back and think about it." ”
