Family Has a Concubine

Naturally, Ye Tangcai didn't have ready-made silk thread on her body, and she wouldn't ask the palace servants to ask for it.

There were two nets around his waist, so he untied them, then undid them, and handed Zhao Yingqi a handful of silk thread.

Zhao Yingqi was a little at a loss as she held a handful of silk thread in her hand.

Of course, she has seen maids do it, such as netting or embroidery, but she has never tried it.

Hey, put these three colored ropes neatly first. Ye Tangcai showed her a demonstration.

Of course Zhao Yingqi would do it, and Ye Tangcai began to demonstrate how to make a knot again. I can still understand the first two steps, but I don’t understand the latter.

Zhao Yingqi was stunned on the spot: No.

Ye Tangcai smiled and said, You can learn it a few times.

Really? Zhao Yingqi frowned slightly.

Ye Tangcai demonstrated it a few more times, but Zhao Yingqi still couldn't do it, so she lost her patience: I'm not smart, I can't learn it.

Who said that? Ye Tangcai said, Whoever learned it once, I learned it for a long time when I was young. Why are you unwilling to learn it after only a few times?

Really? Sister Tang also has to study for a long time? Zhao Yingqi asked in surprise.

Yeah! What do you think? Ye Tangcai said, Come on, walk through like this.

Zhao Yingqi lowered her head and tried. After learning for a while, she was finally able to type out a butterfly-shaped network. Looking at it, Zhao Yingqi pursed her lips and smiled contentedly.

Look, you've learned it now. Ye Tangcai smiled lightly, But this one isn't pretty yet. Go back and practice more, and you'll be able to master the skills.

Yeah. Zhao Yingqi couldn't help nodding, holding Ye Tangcai's arm: Sister Tang is the best for me.

Sister Tang. At this time, Qi Min came back with the little eunuch, and was startled when he saw Zhao Yingqi: It's you! What are you doing here?

Look, I hit a butterfly. Zhao Yingqi picked up the pink net.

Oh, yes, I can finally support myself. Qi Min smiled.

Have you chosen? Ye Tangcai asked.

I've chosen it. It's in the north of the city, in Meizhu Lane not far from Chu's house. There's a three-way courtyard there. Qi Min said.

It's getting late, we're leaving the palace too. Ye Tangcai said, then turned to Zhao Ying and prayed, Go back and practice hard.

After saying that, he got up and left with the little eunuch. Zhao Yingqi was full of reluctance, and sent them to Donghua Gate, and then turned back.

Zhao Yingqi learned how to make nets, and it was the time when she was fresh and enthusiastic, and she wished she could go home and tie ten or eight nets with silk thread.

After dinner in the evening, I went back home.

Back at Pingting Xiaozhu, after freshening up, I grabbed a lot of silk thread from Xiaowan, sat on the imperial concubine chair in Xici room, and tied it.

At this moment, Liang Wang walked in, looked at her hanging her head, and said coldly, What are you doing here?

I'm making nets. Zhao Yingqi looked up at him timidly, picked up the semi-finished product, Look, I've made half of this butterfly. Her tone was a little smug.

Liang Wang sneered and sat down in front of her.

Zhao Yingqi glanced at him, saw that he was staring at her and making nets, and wanted to express herself more and more, wearing and twisting, and the butterfly in her hand was about to be completed.

At this moment, King Liang picked up the few silk threads left on the couch, and in two or three strokes he made a butterfly net, which was even more beautiful than Zhao Yingqi.

Zhao Yingqi choked, feeling ill.

Liang Wang raised his eyebrows and looked at her: How long have you been studying?

Zhao Yingqi stopped the movement in her hands and said in a low voice, It's been a while...

Things that can be grasped at a glance, you have to learn for a long time? Liang Wang sneered.

Zhao Yingqi lowered her head even lower: Others say... everyone is like this...

If everyone is like you, it takes a long time to learn this thing, and everyone outside will starve to death. If others coax you, you should take it seriously. You are just stupid! Liang Wang said, the butterfly in his hand Luozi threw it at her, then turned and left.

Zhao Yingqi looked at the butterfly net slipping in her arms, and then at the one in her hand, feeling extremely embarrassed, threw the half of the butterfly net into the small embroidery basket, and lay down on the pillow.

Xiao Wan walked in and saw her lying there listlessly, with a lot of embroidery thread piled up in the embroidery basket beside her, and a half butterfly net on it.

She picked up the basket and looked at the pink figure lying over there: Princess, don't you want to fight?

Zhao Yingqi was in high spirits just now, but now she was listless, so she shook her head.

...

When Ye Tangcai, Qi Min and others returned home, the weather also turned dark.

The emperor gave Qi Min a small house, but after all he had his own shelter. That house was used by some officials before, but in the end they were demoted and even the house was confiscated, so it was returned to the imperial court, but now it can be used as a reward.

There is no repair yet, so Qi Min still lives with Ye Tang for a few days.

Back at Qiongmingxuan, Qi Min suddenly thumped and kowtowed to Ye Tangcai: Thank you for the kindness of rebuilding.

Hey... get up! Ye Tangcai was startled, and quickly helped her up.

You tell me to thank you, otherwise I'll feel bad. As he spoke, he kowtowed to Ye Tangcai twice before Huiran helped him up. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be where I am today.

She hates that Chu Pingfeng took responsibility for her!

How can you not hate it!

She is not a kind and compassionate Bodhisattva! Seeing Chu Pingfeng like this, he could still smile and say, it doesn't matter, it's just a loss of a scumbag, and from now on, they will live their own lives, and the two have nothing to do with each other.

This kind of indifference and calmness, she can't do it at all.

She is an ordinary person with a dark side to her mind. Yes, unwilling, unwilling, just unwilling!

Why did she confess him to come out, he abandoned her, married another high family, and forced her to be a child?

Even in her dreams, she wanted to hit Chu Pingfeng on the ground and rub against her feet!

Even in her dreams, she wanted to climb higher than him, to make him regret the past, and to make him suffer every day.

But she didn't dare to show these hatreds, because she had already caused Ye Tangcai trouble, so she had no reason to take revenge by herself, and had to ask others for help, after all, Ye Tangcai never owed her anything.

He thought that he didn't know when he could avenge his revenge, but Ye Tangcai actually handed him an opportunity. So, how could she not thank her.

You also helped me a lot! Ye Tangcai said with a smile, If it weren't for you, we wouldn't be able to win food and grass, and the border war would be even more difficult.

Qi Min said: It always feels like you already knew there was such a competition.

Ye Tangcai was startled when he heard this.

Because there was such a competition in the previous life.

At this time in her previous life, she was still in Zhang's family and she was dying of illness. Life was always boring and painful. In order to distract her, Qiuju liked to search for interesting things outside to tell her.

Once Qiuju said: The previous Longevity Festival was very lively, but we Daqi suffered a big defeat. Then Beiyan came to challenge again, this year it was playing chess. Originally, Beiyan had already won the girl from the Liao family, but Beiyan He's so arrogant, he still thinks it's not enough, he actually said that he brought three female chess players here, he can't even have a formal match, he insists on winning two out of three sets. The emperor can't help it, Daqi is not good Female chess players, but the opponent insisted on challenging, and it would be a disgrace for a great country not to accept, so in the end, I had to bite the bullet and order three people to play, and all lost in the end.

Ye Tangcai was still somewhat interested in playing chess, so she asked Qiuju to bring the chess record.

When the chess record was brought over, Ye Tang took a look and found that Beiyan's female chess player was just like that, even if there was a particularly outstanding one, she would not be her opponent.

In this life, seeing the match between Qi Min and Liao Jueyao on the Xingxingtai, she can be sure that Qi Min can't beat General Beiyan, but he is better than the other two.

Ye Tangcai smiled and said, I'm not going to hide this from you. Not long ago, I heard from a merchant that when I met the Beiyan Mission, I heard they said that they are playing chess this year, and they are also female chess players.

Qi Min was startled, nodded: I see.

Ye Tangcai said again: Believe it or not, I didn't think too much about saving you when I saved you.

I believe it. Qi Min smiled sharply.

This is a fact, when she saved Qi Min back then, she really wanted to help Qi Min, and she didn't want to use Qi Min.

Later, the war at the border became more tense, and this year there was a plague of locusts, and the court increased taxes, so she began to worry about Chu Yunpan's military supplies and food.

She didn't think of the competition in her previous life until she mentioned the Longevity Festival.

Since there is a competition, let's go to the challenge. On the one hand, it will solve the problem of food and grass, and on the other hand, it will also allow you to avenge your hatred. Ye Tangcai said.

Qi Min breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: Fortunately, I am useful to you, otherwise I don't know how to deal with myself.

This is what we call perfecting each other. Ye Tangcai said with a smile, Let's go, let's go back and change clothes.

On the second day, the three matches between Da Qi and Bei Yan spread throughout the capital.

Everyone is praising Ye Tang for his superb chess skills, and for helping Daqi solve the problem of food and grass.

In addition, Liao Jueyao and Qi Min were dragged out to whip their corpses in the game of chess that Liao Jueyao and Qi Min played at the Star Picking Platform last year!

Didn't that Qi Min lose to Liao Jueyao? How could he win against that Princess Beiyan?

Yes. Although he won against Mrs. Jingdu last year, he said that he took advantage of others' dangers to win. In the end, he was defeated by Mrs. Jingdu's apprentice, Liao Jueyao, and his reputation was restored.

But it is a fact that Qi Min defeated Princess Beiyan. Liao Jueyao not only lost to Haizhu and Princess Beiyan in a row, but also lost to Ai Er, who was the worst chess player.

Then came the words Qi Min said in the palace, saying that he was like an old nun who couldn't afford to lose, so she pretended to be sick.

Then everyone realized: Actually, Qi Min just won against Master Jingdu. It was Master Jingdu who couldn't afford to lose, so he said he was sick.

I also heard a gossip that it's not that Qi Min can't win against Liao Jueyao, but that he doesn't dare to win! That's the daughter of the chief assistant!

Then everyone figured it out, it was true that Qi Min won against Mrs. Jingdu, she couldn’t afford to lose, she pretended to be sick, and then asked her apprentice of the chief minister’s daughter to come out to invite a fight. How could Qi Min, a peasant girl, dare to offend the chief minister’s daughter , so deliberately lose!

Liao Jueyao was stunned when she heard the news.

Ever since she came back from the palace, Liao Jueyao had guessed all kinds of things. It wasn't that she lost to her, but that she didn't win.

But at this moment, the one who was most injured was not Liao Jueyao, but Sun Shi, Ye Chengxin, and Ye Licai!

So, that little peasant girl should have won! The information we heard was correct, but in the end, she actually lost... Mrs. Sun became dizzy as she spoke.

We have more than ten thousand taels of silver— Ye Chengxin roared.

But what's the use of his yelling, Qi Min is now the county head of the second rank, even if they want to take revenge, they can't do it.

...

The fact that Qi Min was appointed as the county head soon became known to the entire Chu family.

Aunt Fei was stunned, then rushed to Yixiang Courtyard and shouted: Madam, Madam, didn't you say last time that Qi Min looks good, and you want to propose marriage to Erlang for her.

The Qin family at the top made a puff, almost spit out a mouthful of tea, and said with a smile, Didn't you refuse last time?

Who said that, we don't know how willing it is. Aunt Fei said excitedly.

Qin shi hehe: I agree with this marriage. If you can persuade the other side, we will propose marriage immediately.

My aunt knew that she had no intention of helping her, so she gritted her teeth and went to Qiongmingxuan. Upon entering, Ye Tangcai and Qi Min were seen playing chess.

Third Grandma... Hehehe. Aunt Fei walked in, her eyes lit up when she saw Qi Min.

He used to think that Qi Min was rustic, but now, he feels that he has become more elegant and refined, and he is more satisfied.

Now Chu Congke is crazy about the daughter of a famous family, but no one wants him.

Although this Qi Min is not the daughter of a famous family, she became a blockbuster on the Longevity Day, and she was also named the head of the county. With such a title and reputation, it will be a face to marry into the family! It's almost the same as the prostitute of the Hou family!

Ye Tangcai raised his head and glanced at her: What is Auntie doing?

Ouch, my son! Aunt Fei ran over and grabbed Qi Min's hand. Didn't you say last time that you fell in love with my Ke'er!

Damn! Qi Min shook off her hand, Who's looking at that shameless guy in your family?

You, what do you mean! You just said last time that you want to marry my Ke'er... Aunt Fei said angrily.

Oh, I'm just making an analogy. Qi Min sneered, Even if I really said it, didn't you refuse?

We... aren't we thinking about...

Oh, is this going around cursing Lie Lie, saying that I'm spoiling your baby Erlang? Thank you so much! Qi Min sneered.

Auntie, save yourself some face! Ye Tang gave her a cold look.

Aunt Fei's face turned blue and pale, and then she left embarrassingly.

But when he walked to the door, he saw Chu Congke wandering around. Seeing Aunt Fei's face, he knew that nothing would happen, so he had to leave with her.

Then the entire Chu family was about to die of laughter, and the servants were all discussing.

One said: Some time ago, I thought that Xue Ying'er was the concubine's concubine's daughter, so she retired, but Xue Ying'er's real identity was revealed, and she was actually the eldest daughter of the Hou family! He opened his mouth affectionately: 'Ying'er...' Hahaha!

Another one said: A few days ago, it was said that Miss Qi had taken a fancy to him, and he would curse at him, saying that he spoiled him, that he was not even worthy of being his concubine. Now he has been named the head of the county. He opened his mouth again and fell in love with him. Deep style: 'Minmin...' Hahahaha!

The whole Chu family was about to laugh like crazy.
