CHAPTER IX
After dinner, Ye Qian went to Shou'an Hall to greet the old lady, which is something that must be done every day.
Today's people are extraordinarily gathered, except for Mrs. Hou's Meng, the masters of the mansion have arrived.
Ye Rong glared at her viciously, and Ye Fu also kept a calm face and did not speak, this is not outside, there is no need to stage sisterhood anymore. Yeats was timid, and his eyes were full of envy.
However, Ye Ji was generous, and arched his hand: "I heard that His Royal Highness King Yu has a phoenix posture and an extraordinary appearance, congratulations to the fourth sister." β
Ye Qianfu bowed, "Thank you, second brother." β
The third wife, Mei Shi, saw that Ye Qian mentioned that King Yu was not shy about his daughter's family at all, and said secretly: Sure enough, it is too small, and he has not opened his mind at all, King Yu shot such a small princess with an arrow indiscriminately, I don't know if I regret it. Looking at Sister Qian'er's chubby little hands and bulging little face, it is clear that she is still a child, if her child could be born smoothly, it should be so old......
The third old man, Ye Chengshu, saw that Mei's eyes changed, knowing that she remembered the sad past, and quietly held her hand through the cover of his sleeve.
Mei came back to her senses and glanced at him gratefully, although she had no children, but with such a husband who held her in the palm of her hand, she was already happier than most women in this world, and in this life, she was also content. It's a big deal, after a few years, I really can't be reborn, pick a boy in the side branch of the family, and just pass it on.
"Ahem," the old lady sitting at the top spoke, "Sister Qian'er and His Royal Highness King Yu have decided on a family affair, which is a great joy for our family." You must be cautious outside, and you must not take advantage of the power of King Yu to do anything wrong, if anyone dares not to listen, the family law will serve! β
Seeing that the juniors had listened to it, the old lady was very satisfied, and said a few more words, and said: "Since His Royal Highness King Yu has sent Mama who teaches etiquette, from tomorrow, you will teach in the Xiaohua Hall, you all have to be respectful and listen carefully to Mama Feng's words." β
"You guys?" Ye Lixing's eyes raised, "Who are they?" β
The old lady coughed lightly, "Teaching one is also teaching, teaching two is also teaching, the four girls are going to learn a lesson, and it will be polite to go out to meet people in the future, and when others see it, they will also praise our Hou Mansion for their good upbringing." "This kind of grandmother from the palace is very rare, and it is easy to invite one, so it is easy to have one, so naturally let the four girls in the house go to study with it.
Ye Fu was overjoyed, at today's Hundred Flowers Banquet, she saw some noble girls with elegant manners, walking, sitting and lying are all amorous, I thought that I had learned it deliberately, but I didn't expect that she also had such luck, she couldn't let go of such a good opportunity, she had to learn the same as those noble girls.
Ye Rong was very unhappy, she heard that learning etiquette was very hard, and she didn't want to learn it at all, but the old lady had always said the same, and she didn't dare to refute it.
Ye Li retorted, "Mama Feng was ordered by His Royal Highness King Yu to teach Qianqian, how can she go?" β
"It's more lively," the old lady said unhappily, "If Mama Feng herself is unwilling, then naturally she is not reluctant." β
The old lady pushed it on Mama Feng, and Ye Li didn't want to say anything more.
However, on the second day, Mama Feng did not teach, because early in the morning, His Royal Highness King Yu came in person.
Looking at the large group of people who came out, King Yu's beautiful long eyebrows furrowed, and he waved impatiently the horsewhip in his hand full of gorgeous jewels, "It's all gone, this king is here to take the little princess into the palace." β
His attitude is very domineering, but no one dares to say anything, who makes the family the emperor's favorite prince, not to mention in their down-and-out mansion, even in front of the princes and ministers, they have always been so arrogant.
A group of people dispersed in a hurry, Ye Rong wanted to step forward and say a few words to King Yu, but was pulled away by the Qi family, I heard that King Yu's horsewhip was pulled directly to see who was not pleasing to the eye, she didn't dare to let Sister Rong step forward.
The old lady didn't come, she held her own identity, thinking that King Yu should take the initiative to visit her, after all, she was Sister Qian'er's grandmother.
In a blink of an eye, only Ye Qian and Ye Li were left on the scene.
"Your Highness." Ye Qian's small body bent and bowed, and Ye Li reluctantly saluted.
Without outsiders, His Royal Highness King Yu seemed to have changed people, his long eyebrows were stretched, the horsewhip was no longer waved, and his dark eyes were smiling, "Qianqian, I will take you into the palace to see your mother." "I didn't take the little princess to Ningyu Palace yesterday, he regrets it very much, the little girl is so cute, the mother must like it.
"Your Highness, this is not appropriate." Ye Li stopped: "Qianqian hasn't learned the etiquette in the palace yet, so I'm afraid of bumping into the Jade Concubine Niangniang." "Entering the palace to participate in a banquet with a group of noble ladies is still very different from entering the palace alone to meet a certain lady. Besides, the jade concubine likes luxury, and it is estimated that it is not easy to get along with, and he is afraid that his baby sister will be wronged if she goes.
King Yu's phoenix eyes glanced at Ye Li faintly. He hadn't seen this eldest brother in his previous life, because when he and Qianqian were married, Ye Li was already dead.
Although his eyes were bland, there was an invisible pressure, Ye Li's heart was awe-inspiring, this King Yu, I'm afraid it's not as simple as it seems. However, for the sake of his sister, he didn't want to admit it, "In addition, please also ask Your Highness to call your sister 'Miss Ye Si', the name 'Qianqian' is probably not suitable for calling out of His Highness's mouth." "Men and women who are married can be a little closer, such as traveling together during festivals or something, but the etiquette that should be observed still has to be kept.
King Yu pinched the horsewhip's hand tightly, it turned out that this eldest brother was so annoying, I really wanted to throw him a whip.
Ye Qian knows a lot more about current affairs than Ye Li, mainly because her brother taught her, and what the noble man said can't be refuted, and she is also afraid that King Yu will be angry, so she doesn't care about what she promised her, so she hurriedly said: "Brother, I also want to see Concubine Yu." β
The little princess gave face like this, King Yu couldn't help but be happy, but Ye Li's face was dark, no wonder the girl was outgoing, his sister who had worked so hard to raise was just married, and he helped other men!
King Yu looked at his eldest brother's face, his heart was even more happy, and said with a smile: "Qianqian, don't worry, let's go and say hello to my mother-in-law first." β
"What mother-in-law?!" Ye Li refuted: "That's your future mother-in-law!" β
"Oh, then go and say hello to your future mother-in-law." His Royal Highness King Yu is as good as a stream.
Ye Li choked, seeing that King Yu was about to pull his sister's hand, he hurriedly strode forward, grabbed his sister's hand first, and waved his empty hand, "His Royal Highness King Yu, please come here." β
King Yu looked at the hands held by the two, and his phoenix eyes narrowed dangerously.
Ye Qian had long been sensitive to the fact that the two of them were a little-for-tat, and at this time, seeing that His Royal Highness King Yu had a bad face, he hurriedly pulled his brother and took two steps and grabbed King Yu's hand.
She pulled her brother with one hand and King Yu with the other, looked at the two of them left and right, and her big black grape-like eyes blinked twice, "Brother, Your Highness, let's go over now, right?" β
She was a little afraid that the two would quarrel, and the question seemed cautious, how could Ye Li be willing to embarrass his sister, and King Yu didn't want to scare the little princess, so the three of them held hands so strangely and joined hands in a string, and went to Siyuan Hall awkwardly.
Mrs. Hou Meng had already heard that His Royal Highness King Yu had come down and wanted to bring her little daughter into the palace, but she didn't expect him to come to her courtyard and struggled to get up.
Xiao Yanfeng hurriedly stopped, "Madame, don't need to get up, we're not outsiders." β
Meng Shi only saw the young King Yu, and remembered that he was a little boy who was too beautiful to talk to, and now when he looks at it, he is still so good-looking, worthy of being born as the first beauty. "How is the Jade Concubine?"
"Mother concubine, she is very good, but I heard that Qianqian is innocent and cute, and I want to see her." Xiao Yanfeng looked at her while greeting Meng Shi, and saw that she looked sick and weak, and said secretly: No wonder she died early in her previous life, and if she wants to be like this, she can't stand the pain of losing her husband and son first. I only pity Qianqian, who was originally the daughter of the Hou Mansion, but she fell into helplessness. Of course, if it weren't for the loneliness and some identity, he wouldn't have been assigned to marry himself so coincidentally. However, since she has been reborn, many things have been known in advance, so naturally she can't let the tragedy happen again, her parents, her brother, he will protect her.
Meng's spirit was not good, and King Yu quickly resigned.
The old lady was still waiting for King Yu to visit her as a junior, but they went to Siyuan Hall to see Meng, and then left directly, ignoring her at all.
"The carriage should be readyβ" Ye Li sent his sister and King Yu to the door.
"No, you don't." King Yu waved his horsewhip, "Qianqian is more comfortable to sit in my carriage, and when I see my mother, I will send Qianqian back." β
Ye Li just wanted to refute, Ye Qian had already walked to King Yu's gorgeous carriage, seeing that King Yu was about to pick up his baby sister and get into the car, Ye Li hurriedly rushed up, Ye Qian naturally opened her arms, Ye Li crossed her hands under her ribs, and put her in the carriage with a gentle move.
King Yu then got into the carriage as well.
The wheels rolled, Ye Qian lifted the curtain and waved at her brother.
Ye Li looked at the carriage in the distance, feeling quite melancholy, how could the fresh and tender cabbage that had been raised for many years become someone else's?
