Family Has a Concubine

Ye Tangcai returned to Qiongmingxuan, had dinner, slept indiscriminately, and went out with Qiuju Huiran the next morning.

A small red official sedan was parked in front of Yongcun Residence in Songhua Lane.

Ye Chengde, who was wearing the same green official robe, came out from the permanent residence, bent over and got into the sedan chair. Two stout bearers in bunts straightened up quickly, carried the sedan chair and left.

The permanent residence is as busy as ever.

Shredded chicken porridge was boiling in an iron pot in the kitchen, dumplings were stuffed in a steamer, while Mama Chen was mixing the seasonings.

In the main room, Yin Tingniang was washing and washing, while there was already a burst of reading in the east chamber.

The whole small courtyard was peaceful and happy.

Xu Rui has stopped going to the academy for the past two months. Master Yao said that his homework is not solid enough, but he still has the ability to win a game. Tell him not to go to class, and go to Master Yao's yard at noon to receive one-on-one guidance from Master Yao.

After the mother and son had finished their breakfast, one was going to continue studying and the other was going to do embroidery, when there was a knock on the door outside.

The eldest son must have skipped class again. Chen Ma stood up with a smile, then walked out of the room, calling, Come on!

Chen Ma walked to the door, opened the door with a squeak, and saw Ye Yun standing at the door, she immediately smiled: Hey, big...

Hush! Ye Yun put her middle finger on her lips, made a silent gesture, and whispered: Pretend not to know me well.

Chen Ma was taken aback, what kind of trick is this...?

Ye Yun turned around and smiled flatteringly: Sister, mother, go this way, I've already knocked on the door.

Chen's mother was shocked when she heard these two names, her face was as white as white, why, the girl over there is here again? And what's his name? mother? Is it the wife from the mansion over there?

Ye Yun stepped across the threshold, followed by a magnificent and beautiful girl, followed by a bright and dignified woman in her thirties, and then a delicate and graceful girl in her sixteen or seventeen years.

It was Ye Tangcai, Wen Shi and Ye Lingjiao.

Ye Tangcai didn't call her Ye Lingjiao originally, but Ye Lingjiao came to sit in Wen's house at night, and when she heard that Wen's and Nanny Cai were going to Songhua Lane early this morning, her eyes lit up, women are born to gossip He was aroused all of a sudden and raised his hand to come.

Thinking of how emboldened she was, Wen had no choice but to bring her along.

This... Yin Tingniang and Xu Rui saw so many people walking into the room at once, and she recognized Ye Tangcai's mother and daughter, and even Ye Lingjiao at a glance!

These are the people she will deal with in the future, so she has secretly observed every master of the Ye family.

What's going on? Xu Rui's face paled, and he walked out of the house with Yin Tingniang.

Ye Yun saw that Yin Tingniang and Xu Rui's faces were pale, they were obviously frightened, and felt guilty and anxious, and wanted to go forward and tell them not to be afraid, but in front of Wen's, it was not easy to behave like Yin Tingniang's mother and son. Look familiar.

Wen Shi also saw Yin Tingniang, and saw that the woman in front of her was in her thirties, with almond eyes and melon-shaped face, and she was also beautiful, but Wen Shi felt confident that she was more beautiful than her.

But her husband's heart was completely taken away by this woman!

Madam... Yin Tingniang stepped forward timidly, her small body trembling desperately, as if she was terribly frightened.

Seeing her frightened look, Wen's whole body was not well.

He also thought that before entering the door, he was the one who was afraid, thinking that the other party would be such a glamorous and unparalleled vixen, and then he was so proud of being favored and arrogantly mocked that he was useless as the main wife. No, she would be scared if she entered the door by herself!

In this way, Wen shi breathed a sigh of relief, and became more courageous.

Ye Tangcai looked at her with a soft smile: Aunt Ting, don't be afraid, we are not here to question you, but to accept you.

Ye Tangcai's eyes were soft, but for some reason, Yin Tingniang's heart skipped a beat, and her little melon-seeded face suddenly had a good expression.

Yes! Don't worry, Aunt Ting. Ye Yun blinked at Yin Tingniang, and Ye Tangcai called Aunt Ting in front of her, and he also boldly called in front of Wen's.

Yin Tingniang just smiled awkwardly: Ma'am... big girl... and this girl, please sit in the room. She pretended not to know Ye Lingjiao.

Yin Tingniang led them all the way to the house.

When Wen and others entered the house, they saw three small and exquisite rooms, with a small hall in the middle, a bedroom on the east, and a living room on the west.

In the Xici room, there is a long couch carved in pear wood with the character of longevity, separated by a small black lacquered table inlaid with mother-of-pearl.

There are three black lacquered armchairs on the left and right of the lower head. All kinds of porcelain vases, bonsai, white jade rabbits, etc. are placed on the Bogu shelf in the partition.

Wen looked at the things on the shelf that were a bit familiar, but for a moment he couldn't remember where he had seen them. After all, many of these ornaments are similar.

Ye Tangcai was shocked to death! Because she has a good memory, she loved to rummage in Wen's small warehouse when she was young, so she recognized two bonsai and the white jade rabbit ornament as Wen's dowry!

Ye Tangcai was so annoyed that she gasped for breath, her heart was on fire!

Ye Chengde, if he raises a concubine, he should raise a concubine, but he still uses his mother's dowry to post this concubine! What a bitch! Bitch!

Wen's house was small and exquisite, but although it was small, it had all internal organs. Although it is not very luxurious and luxurious, but everything is exquisite and cute, which shows that a lot of work has been spent on it.

Wen's heart burst into anger, how could this outer room have the ability to collect these things, it must be him! Thinking of how attentive he was to this woman, Wen felt indescribably uncomfortable.

Mrs. Wen, please sit down! Afraid that Yin Tingniang would be wronged, Chen Ma hurried forward to greet her.

In this yard, Yin Tingniang is also a wife, Chen's mother can't bear to see her bow down, even calling Wen's by Wen's surname, as if Wen's is not Yin Tingniang's mistress.

But Ye Tangcai turned her head and smiled, and said very gently: This nanny, if you are tired, you can go outside. Aunt Ting can make soup and cook, and the tea she pours should also be very good. of.

Chen Ma's face froze. Seeing that they were so crowded, she didn't dare to say anything, so she retreated silently.

Wen Shi wanted to sit on the main seat on the couch, but Ye Tangcai secretly tugged her. When we met just now, she told Wen Shi not to appear too domineering.

Both Wen and Madam Cai disagreed, and felt that since they came, they had to carry the money of the mistress, because she was the mistress in the first place, and she couldn't afford it in front of an outside room.

But Ye Tangcai's purpose is not to put on airs to bully Yin Tingniang, but to win back Ye Yun's heart! Let Ye Yun know that it's not that they don't accept it, but that Yin Tingniang wants more than he imagined!

If she puts on the air of the mistress as soon as she comes here, and bullies her so aggressively, her stupid brother has always been a person who looks at whoever is weak and feels pitiful or reasonable. If he puts on too much airs, he will lean towards Yin Tingniang.

Although Wen didn't agree, she still listened to her daughter very much. She didn't sit on the upper couch, but when she sat on the armchair, it seemed like she didn't dare to sit there.

It's so boring here, can we sit in the small hall outside! Ye Tangcai fanned the wind with a handkerchief to relieve Wen's siege.

Yin Tingniang had long been unwilling to let Wen's take over her seat. Now that she heard that Ye Tangcai was going to the small hall, she hurriedly said, This way, please.

Several people walked into the small dining room. In the small hall, there is a round table with cloud legs inlaid with rosewood and mother-of-pearl, with five or six round stools beside it, and two armchairs against the wall. A small coffee table.

Ye Tangcai and the others sat down at the round table. Once everyone was seated, they had to serve tea.

But Chen Ma has already gone out, so she has to figure it out by herself!

Although Wen didn't sit on the main seat inside, but now a servant ordered her to go out to do things, it seemed that she was like a servant. Since Yin Tingniang lived here, she has never been as humiliated as she is now.

I'm going to make tea! Xu Rui said with a smile. He still maintained a smile, with the air of a polite scholar. If he goes to soak, there will be no such meaning as mistress and aunt.

Ye Tangcai didn't want to embarrass them with this little thing, but with bigger things!

So Ye Tangcai smiled softly and said, Aunt Ting, please sit down!

Wen's heart shuddered, but she also said, Ting Niang, sit down!

Aunt Ting, sit down! Ye Yun saw that not only his sister was courteous, but also his mother, who had obviously accepted Aunt Ting, with a happy face, You are welcome, we are all family.

Yin Tingniang felt that they were scheming, but she could only respond: Hey.

Then sat down at the position opposite Wen's.

Wen said: You have been with Shizi for five or six years!

Yes, it's been more than six years. Yin Tingniang didn't know the purpose of these people for a moment, she could only see one step and one step.

For so many years, I have wronged you. Wen smiled.

No, I'm not wronged. Yin Tingniang had a bad feeling in her heart.

Your Majesty, for all these years, I haven't even mentioned your status to your family. When he said this, Wen's whole body relaxed.

It was as if I had let go of all my attachments for so many years. Take it back! Then take it back! This Yin Tingniang doesn't look so charming, nor is she so annoying.

There is no need to grind or embarrass her, just go where Chengde loves her! She doesn't care if she doesn't want this kind of favor, since she is so old and her daughter is married, what is there to fight for!

As Mother Cai said, she only lives by guarding her children.

As long as Yin Tingniang is honest and behaves after entering the mansion, then let her go.

Thinking of this, Wen's next words became more sincere, and her smile became more indifferent: These years, I was too obsessed, I couldn't think clearly, and I always felt that raising outside is not good. Now seeing me , I found that you are not as bad as I imagined. You can no longer be outside, being pointed at all day, what is it like? So I thought about it, and I will give you a name. You can come back with me Go home, let's take care of the rules and etiquette, and you will be my roommate.

Xu Rui, who came in with tea in his hands, had gloomy eyes. He already knew that they were not kind! I didn't expect that with such evil intentions, he actually wanted to force his mother into the mansion to become a concubine!

When Yin Tingniang heard this, her heart sank. She lowered her eyes, with indescribable humiliation and unwillingness flashing in her eyes.

If this remark was placed in the meeting when she first met Ye Chengde, she would definitely nod her head in agreement! Even if Ye Chengde hesitated, she would persuade Ye Chengde to become a concubine in the mansion. After all, for a person like her to be a concubine in the Hou's mansion, it is definitely a high ranking!

But she has been his wife here for six full years, and she has also been favored by Ye Chengde for six years, and Ye Chengde also promised to give her more! She can obviously get better! She obviously has the opportunity to be a regular wife, why would she want to be a concubine?

Her son obviously has the opportunity to be the son of a concubine, and he will inherit everything in the Hou family in the future, so why should he be a son of a concubine?

Everyone, please have tea. Xu Rui stepped forward at the right time, interrupting the good atmosphere created by Wen's.

He smiled politely, and put the teacups in front of everyone one by one.

Thank you. Ye Tangcai smiled slightly, raised the tip of her eyes slightly, and glanced at him.

Xu Rui only felt that she was unparalleled in beauty, but in the next second, the beauty of her glance was immediately defeated by her following words.

She pulled Ye Yun's sleeve happily: Brother, Aunt Ting and Mr. Xu will follow us home soon.

Yes, yes! Ye Yun's face was full of excitement. If you want me to tell you, move back right now! When the time comes, Dad won't be able to find anyone here, and he will be crazy. When he returns home, he will find Aunt Ting and Ruidi at home, and he will be crazy!

Ye Tangcai giggled, holding the teacup extremely joyously, he must be mad with anger!

Listening to Ye Yun's words, Yin Tingniang and Xu Rui's faces turned green and pale.

Aunt Ting, Aunt Ting, why don't you talk? Ye Yun urged again and again, he wished he could arrange Aunt Ting and Ruidi well and give them a complete home.

Uh...I... Yin Tingniang made a little noise, thought for a while, gave Ye Yun a sorry look, and finally fell on Wen's face: Thank you for your care and love... But Ruier, Rui'er is preparing for the autumn in August, and there are still two months left. If the environment is changed suddenly, it may affect her studies, so she should not move. I appreciate the kindness of my wife, and we will make plans after the autumn is over.

Ye Tangcai sneered in her heart, there was not a single word in these words that promised to enter the mansion to be an aunt!

Wen's and Cai's mother frowned, and they felt very uncomfortable when they heard this. It's amazing to have a son who can pass the exam. But when Wen thought that no matter how powerful he was, it wasn't the Ye family's blood, and he couldn't take away Ye Yun's things, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

What's the matter. On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, Ye Chengde had already used these words to block the water, and Ye Tangcai had already found a countermeasure. She said with a smile: Then let's not move for now! But, we still have to get rid of it as soon as possible. The name is given.

Yesterday, my mother was anxious to bring Aunt Ting and you into the house. I checked the almanac. Today is June 22, June 25 is my grandmother's birthday, and June 24 is the day after tomorrow. Many people choose to get married on that day! Aunt Ting and Young Master Xu came into the mansion that day, let's go through the etiquette of taking concubines, um...do you want Aunt Ting to sit in a small pink sedan chair with Young Master Xu?

Yin Tingniang and Xu Rui's faces turned black.

Wen's and Cai Mama said huh and ruthlessly held back their laughter. Ye Lingjiao let out a thump and covered her mouth, not daring to laugh out loud, but her shoulders were trembling.

Generally, concubinage, if the husband's family values ​​it, there will be a small pink sedan chair. If you bring a child into the house to be a concubine, then the child must also sit in the small pink sedan chair together, proving that he will follow the mother to start the family and become a part of the new family.

But now... Regardless of whether Yin Tingniang is old enough to be ashamed to sit in a small pink sedan chair, Xu Rui is such a big man... and he is still a scholar, or a gentleman who is preparing to take the exam and become an official ! To be carried into the door by a small pink sedan chair! How does this make him live? If you really become an official in the future, you will be laughed to death!

No, don't take the sedan chair! Ye Yun also thought of this level, Ruidi will be an official in the future, how can he be carried into the mansion by the little pink sedan chair!

So, it's just Jane saving the concubine ceremony? Ye Tangcai said and looked at Ye Yun. It wasn't that they were mean to their mother and son, but that they didn't want to.

Yes... of course it's better to be simpler! Aunt Ting is not the kind of extravagant, she has always been plain and simple, just serve tea! Ye Yun said.

Yeah. Ye Tangcai nodded seriously. So, you don't need to make any preparations, as long as the people arrive. The day after tomorrow, Aunt Ting will put on new clothes, dress up, and come into the house. First, I will kowtow to my mother and serve tea to salute my grandparents, and then to our grandparents. The two aunts in the room make half a salute! In this way, the aunts are the third aunts of our eldest room, and the ceremony is complete!

Yin Tingniang and Xu Rui listened to her kowtow to salute on the left and the salute to tea on the right, their faces turned green and white, constantly changing.

They just feel extremely humiliated, how can this be!

They are all used to being wives and sons here, so they don't want to be overwhelmed by others! And not only was she overwhelmed by Wen's, but there were also two aunts on top, so she became the youngest when she entered the mansion! But she is older than those two aunts! How embarrassing and embarrassing that is!
