Yixiu's Rebirth: Sending Bai Lianhua's Sister to Become a Concubine

After the southern tour, Yinsi invited Yinzhen and Yixiu to come to his house for a gathering.

On that day, Yixiu was getting along very well with Maertai and Guoluolu, but Yinzhen, who was sitting aside, had a cold face.

When lunch was served, the five people sat opposite each other.

As the host of the mansion, Yinsi greeted everyone cheerfully: "We are all family, let's sit at the same table to eat, it will be more lively."

Guo Luoluo replied, "Of course, there are so many people here, and the food tastes especially good."

After these words were spoken, Yinzhen, who had been keeping his eyelids drooped, raised his eyes and looked at him without saying a word. When he walked out of the inner room, he deliberately avoided Guo Luoluo, turned around, and then sat down next to Yinsi.

Yixiu followed behind and sat next to Yinzhen.

During lunch, Yinzhen only took a few bites of food with his chopsticks and ate very slowly and carefully.

Yinsi looked at it and said, "But the food here doesn't suit Fourth Brother's taste?"

Putting down his chopsticks, Yinzhen glanced at the people at the table and paused before saying, "Nothing, it's just that the weather has been hot these days and my appetite has been poor."

Is the weather getting hot?

Is it hot?

The leaves of the trees in the yard haven't grown yet. Where is the hotness?

Yinsi curled his lips. It was rare for the two brothers to meet each other. It would be a big disappointment if they ate so little. Why did Fourth Brother act so crazy?

But Guo Luoluo and Maertai were not unable to read people's expressions.

Feeling the chill emanating from Yinzhen, the two looked at each other and said in tacit understanding:

"Master Si Beile, Master Beile, we are done eating. We two Beile haven't seen each other for a long time. I think there is still something to talk about between brothers. How about I take the fourth sister-in-law to see the newly renovated courtyard?"

"Okay."

Yinsi agreed readily, and Yinzhen also nodded. The annoying person finally left.

Seeing the door closed, Yinsi waved his hand, signaling the maids and servants serving on the side to go down as well.

Then, he picked up a large piece of duck meat with his chopsticks, put it on the plate in front of Yinzhen and said:

"Eat quickly. It's so hot. If you don't eat now, the food will get cold."

Yinzhen:? Did you learn this weird look from those two women?

But he finally picked up his chopsticks and finished the duck in front of him. After holding it in for a while, he couldn't help but say:

"I say, have you been spending too much time in your backyard lately?"

Ok?

Yinsi was a little confused. Why were they talking about such a topic in broad daylight?

But then he realized that Yinzhen was referring to asking Ruoxi to do the job of a tea-serving maid.

Both Concubine De and her own mother had spoken to the Emperor about this matter.

It does seem a bit surprising that a daughter of an official family has troubled two high-ranking concubines in the harem to take care of her.

Yinsi said: "I didn't know that Concubine De had already asked..."

"That's not the reason." Yinzhen waved his hand and said, "For such a small matter, your concubine should have gone to find Concubine Liang herself. Why did she ask you to pass on the message?"

"You know, although the backyard and the front court are one, they should each perform their own duties. If your backyard cannot help you and consumes your energy, isn't that too incompetent?"

Yinsi blinked twice and thought, how much energy should I spend just to tell my mother?

What's wrong with fourth brother today?

But Yinsi still smiled and said, "I know that Fourth Sister-in-law is virtuous and is very much loved by Empress Defei, but my concubine has only been in the palace for a short time and was not familiar with Mother before."

"Don't worry, Fourth Brother. I will tell him later."

If he were an ordinary brother, Yinsi would have stopped talking after saying this.

But Yinzhen still refused to let it go, and continued, "And your wife, what about the noise when there are too many people eating? It's like what that country woman said. If there are too many people, wouldn't it be embarrassing for you?"

Guo Luoluo had never been favored by Yinzhen, and Yinsi knew this.

But Yinzhen is just his fourth brother after all, so why should he care about how the couple get along?

The smile on Yinsi's face faded a little, and he felt a little unhappy in his heart. He responded: "Since Fourth Brother doesn't want to see them, we can have dinner alone next time."

"Everyone stays away, so as to avoid trouble for each other."

"Okay."

Yinzhen agreed readily and continued, "That's right. Why should we let outsiders come to our brotherly gathering? This duck is good. You should eat more."

Yinsi: ...It's incomprehensible. I don't understand it, but I'll respect it first.

---------------

Yixiu guessed what was wrong with Yinzhen.

Perhaps he had just seen that the brother who grew up with him was no longer only concerned about himself, but also started to care more about other women and was also taken care of by others, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

Yixiu thought that this mentality was somewhat similar to the way a mother-in-law always dislikes her daughter-in-law.

The two Beile Mansions were originally neighbors.

An hour later, Yinzhen sent Su Peisheng to say hello to Yixiu and said that he would stay at Yinsi's place today.

Yixiu said goodbye alone, and before leaving, she did not forget to ask again and again whether Guo Luoluo and Maertai wanted to go back with her since Yinzhen lived here.

As a result, the two of them shook their heads in unison again: No, no. Thinking of Yinzhen's appearance just now, they decided not to worry anymore.

Yixiu smiled slightly and did not point it out. After all, it was just a small matter between relatives, so she said goodbye and left.

In Yongkang Pavilion.

When Yixiu came in, she saw Nian Shilan who had just been brought back.

Honghui was standing by, pulling Nian Shilan's clothes and said, "Sister, mother asked me what my shortcomings are."

"what?"

Honghui: "I said I was short of money because I wanted to buy a little wooden eagle."

After saying that, Honghui looked at Nian Shilan eagerly.

Nian Shilan nodded, seeming to agree, and Honghui's eyes sparkled as she nodded.

Nian Shilan spoke up: "That's a bit lacking, I also want a little eagle."

Honghui:......

When standing between the two of them, Yixiu watched with great interest.

She couldn't help but think that when she was just reborn, her fourteenth brother Yinzhen was not yet an adult and studied in the palace every day.

At that time, I gave him a small wooden eagle in the name of Yinzhen, and he was all smiles.

This Honghui's hobbies are quite similar to those of his fourteenth uncle.

Now, in the blink of an eye, Yinzhen has grown up and become a prince with his own palace.

And Honghui has reached the age to play with Kitty Hawk.

once having seen the best, the rest is not worthwhile looking.

Yixiu counted the days and felt that these years were almost the last time for the princes to maintain superficial peace.
