CHAPTER XXXVI
"You're doing a great job."
Qin Zhiyan was not stingy with his praise.
Ye Gantang heard Qin Zhiyan's words, hooked his lips and smiled: "This is what the concubine should do." ”
Qin Zhiyan was noncommittal, and defended the interests of her husband and family outside, of course, this is what his wife should do, but this is not something that anyone can do well, and Ye Gantang undoubtedly did a good job.
This matter is not an important matter in Qin Zhiyan's opinion, but he also knows that if he wants to do great things, he relies on these small things that seem unimportant.
"Don't worry too much, you just have business as usual. Moreover, what the mother concubine said is very right, if someone in the palace neglects you, you don't have to cower, there is no one in the palace who can represent the king's wishes better than you. ”
Ye Gantang sometimes really feels that sweet words are a man's talent, and they are born to please women, especially in words.
Especially an ambitious man like Qin Zhiyan.
Put these words on other women, and if you say two more words, you should fall.
When Ye Gantang heard this, he raised his head with emotion, affection and tenderness.
"Thank you, Lord Wang."
The two looked at each other affectionately, but their inner thoughts were known only to them.
Back in Yutang Courtyard, Ye Gantang leaned on the soft collapse and sighed sincerely.
Shi Fu took out a cup of brewed flower tea and carefully handed it to Ye Gantang, "Why is the master sighing?" ”
Although she didn't follow Ye Gantang to face the saint, she also followed behind Concubine Shuniang and waited carefully, at that time, she didn't feel that there was anything dirty between Concubine Shuniang and the master, she was just a subordinate, and she could also feel the maintenance of the master by Concubine Shu.
Could it be that you didn't understand something?
Ye Gantang almost grew up with Shi Fu, she didn't need to look to know what this girl was thinking, she shook her head, blocked Shi Fu's brain supplement, and said with a sigh.
"Everyone yearns for a high place, and the high place is too cold."
Today's events are just the tip of the iceberg, and even a marginal character can smell the turbulent waves in her seemingly bland words, let alone Qin Zhiyan, who grew up in this whirlpool.
If she had grown up here since she was a child, she would only be afraid of ......
It's going to be even more like a fish in water.
The taste of power is too good.
Shi Fu, as always, couldn't see what her young lady was saying or thinking, she just silently accompanied Ye Gantang's side.
Qin Zhiyan was still in the study, and the dinner was for Ye Gantang's own use.
As soon as I put down the chopsticks here, someone from there reported.
The person who came was the next person waiting in the front yard, responsible for welcoming guests, and found Ye Gantang today, it should be someone in the front yard looking for him.
Sure enough, following behind this person was a woman Ye Gantang was more familiar with.
"Mother Gong? What are you doing here? Bestow the seat. ”
Mother Gong is the personal maid of the Qian family of Yefu, and she is the head of the backyard of Yefu, and the serious master in the backyard will treat Gong's mother more politely.
Mother Gong came to the palace for the first time and saw the eldest lady of the Ye family, who she hadn't seen for a long time, but had been reborn, and she looked a little cramped.
She saluted first, and then sat down carefully in the chair under the arrangement of her subordinates, and only sat emptyly, for fear of breaking something.
Shi Fu handed the grandmother a cup of tea, and the grandmother thanked her repeatedly, symbolically took it and moistened her lips before she spoke: "Big, no, Her Royal Highness the Princess, it was the eldest lady who asked me to come." ”
She said a lot of money, Ye Gantang frowned, Mother Gong is not a hesitant and timid person, and she also knows that if it weren't for a big deal, she wouldn't let people come to the door.
Ye Gantang raised his head and said to the servants waiting in the house: "Let's all go out." ”
Xian Jing and Shi Fu took the lead and led the people in the house out of the room.
Seeing that the strangers in the house had left, Gong's mother opened her mouth to tell the reason for coming to the door today.
In April this year, the palace examination was held, and 300 tributes entered Beijing to take the examination, but some people were named on the gold list, and naturally some people fell to Sun Shan.
Some of them returned to their hometowns, while others stayed in the capital to study in nearby academies or study under famous teachers.
However, there are also some people who have neither found a famous teacher nor entered a seowon school, but they still have a little talent, so they stop at the temple to study on their own.
At the foot of the White Horse Temple is the Tianma Academy, and there are many more angry students in it this year.
This originally had nothing to do with the Qian family.
Even if Ye Gantang's marriage has not been decided with Qin Zhiyan, as Ye Fu, he will not go to these students who have failed to make the list, but the world is impermanent, and this palace tried to surpass Ye Gantang and got involved with Ye Ruihuan.
In April, all the female dependents of the Ye Mansion went to the White Horse Temple to make a vow, when the girls of Ye Gantang's generation were let out to walk around, and the girls of the Ye family were very individual, and they went their own way, and everyone didn't think much about it.
When I went back, a few girls also came in time, so Qian didn't notice anything unusual.
It's just that after returning from the White Horse Temple, Ye Ruihuan left the mansion more often, and at that time, everyone in the Ye Mansion was busy with Ye Gantang's concubine, and no one noticed her.
In May, Ye Gantang left the house, the Qian family was idle, and by coincidence, he found that Ye Ruihuan sneaked out of the capital behind her back to play twice!
When she first found out, her heart beat violently, and some time ago there was a case of a noble girl being abducted on the street, and it has only been a few days? How dare Ye Ruihuan go out of the city without escorting herself?
The Qian family originally wanted to directly kill Ye Ruihuan's courtyard and teach people a good lesson, but Mother Gong stopped her.
Ye Ruihuan was taken care of by Gong's mother when she was young, and Gong's mother was Qian's dowry maid, and Qian could listen to what she said.
Gong's mother said that although Ye Ruihuan is a little lively, she is still very tough, she must have encountered something, and it is best to investigate this matter first, otherwise it may be self-defeating. If one is not good, it will hurt the mother-daughter relationship between the two.
Qian's dizzy mind finally calmed down.
She sent someone to keep an eye on Ye Ruihuan's master and servant, looking at her for several days, and finally when Ye Ruihuan sneaked out of the house, the Qian family had already gotten the news, so she secretly followed Ye Ruihuan and watched Ye Ruihuan go to the White Horse Temple.
At this time, Qian and Gong's mother, who were following Ye Ruihuan, already had a premonition that they didn't want to, and when a young man appeared on a path, Qian was shaky and his face was pale.
She pinched her palms, covered her mouth, watched Ye Ruihuan and the man chatting, and looked at Ye Ruihuan's ruddy face and her eyebrows.
However, Ye Ruihuan also seems to remember the taboo of collecting all four elephants, perhaps because this path is not too remote, and there may be people passing by, and the two of them maintained the last distance between men and women, and they didn't even hold their hands.
If it weren't for this, the Qian family would have been killed now, and Ye Ruihuan, who was stunned, would have slapped him twice, and then let the little guy behind them beat the man's stick to death.
Under Qian's gaze, the two only exchanged letters, and when they saw this, it was still Qian's mother who grabbed them.
Otherwise, Qian rushed out again.
