Family Has a Concubine

Chapter 98: Invitation and birthday banquet (one more)

Qinger was reporting Yin Tingniang’s affairs at Qiongmingxuan.

At this time, a small gray-clothed servant with a flat face and a thin body walked in: “Grandma San, your maiden’s family is here to give you something.”

The young man’s name was Xiaozong, and he was the doorman at Xijiaomen. He was the only one to guard the door before. Since Qing’er came, Qing’er has guarded the door with him, and the two still live in the same house.

On weekdays, Ye Tangcai’s posts were all sent in by Qing’er. Now that Qing’er runs here, Xiaozong is here.

“My mother’s family?” Ye Tangcai raised her head and looked out.

At this time, following Xiaozong walked into a young girl who was tender and beautiful. He wears a double-ringed bun on his head, a red gold plum fringed hairpin on one side, and a jade jade bracelet on his hand. Although the maid dresses, she wears gold and silver, and she is full of style.

Ye Tangcai frowned when she saw this maidservant, she remembered that there was no such maid in her family! And she can be sure that this is really not from Jing’an Houfu.

“Xiaozong, thank you.” Ye Tangcai said and looked at Qiuju.

Qiuju was clever, and quickly walked into the bedroom, grabbed a handful of copper plates from the money box, ran out, and stuffed it into Xiaozong’s hands.

“Grandma Xie San!” Xiaozong was overjoyed, bowed and thanked, then turned to leave.

“I have seen the third grandmother.” The young and yellow maid saluted as a blessing.

“This sister is…”

The yellow maid pursed her lips and chuckled: “The third grandmother is very busy, and the servant can remember the third grandmother clearly.” After smiling, she said softly: “The day that Xu was the empress and the princess was too dazzling, and the third grandma naturally paid attention. Not the servants.”

Ye Tang was stunned and surprised: “It turns out that it’s a person from the princess’s mansion, it’s rude.”

The maid in yellow smiled again: “The third grandma misunderstands that the servant is a servant of the prince’s mansion.”

Ye Tang Cai listened, her whole body stunned, her body stretched straight.

“Last time the third grandma went to the princess’s house to thank you and gave the dried peony flowers and told me how to make it. My wife liked it very much. I asked the servants to try the third grandmother’s method, but it was unsuccessful, so I wanted to invite the third grandmother to the house. I personally teach one or two.” Huang Yi said the maid.

Ye Tangcai’s face turned pale, but she still smiled and said, “I don’t know when to go? It’s just that the 26th is my grandmother’s birthday, so I’m afraid it won’t work that day.”

“Then twenty-seven!” The yellow girl said, holding out another post with a bronzing phoenix.

“Okay, thanks to this sister.” Ye Tangcai took the post, “Qiuju, send this to this sister.”

Qiu Ju had already cleverly taken out a sling of money and stuffed it into the hand of the maid. The yellow-robed maid thanked her, and walked out at a regular pace.

Qiu Ju straightly sent the person out of the West Point Gate, and then he shouted and rushed back: “Girl, the prince concubine and empress actually invited us to come as a guest!”

A look of excitement and joy. Then he said: “The second wife always talks about the words of the prince and the concubine and the prince and the concubine. I don’t know whether it is true or false. Today, my girl has been appreciated by the nobles, and she is known by the people outside. I don’t know how she has a face.

“Qiuju, don’t talk about it for the time being.” Ye Tangcai looked at Qiuju cautiously.

“Ah?” Qiu Ju frowned, “Why, girl? Don’t we take pleasure in hitting the second room? If you tell the second wife, she will die of soreness!

“We still don’t talk about things about the heavenly family.” Ye Tangcai raised her hand, and saw that the hot stamped post reflected a dazzling light in the sun. She thought of the conflict between King Liang and the prince, and her eyes narrowed slightly. , Smiled slightly: “Well, take pleasure in hitting the second room? Let’s not set the goal too small!”

Ye Tangcai didn’t say much anymore, Qiuju tilted her head, puzzled, just let it go anyway.

On June 25th, Miao’s birthday.

Miao is not very old, but in her early forties, but as Mrs. Jing’an Hou, she is there for generations. Jing’an Hou’s Mansion also needs this birthday banquet for human relations, so she also plays a big role.

Early in the morning, the vermilion lacquer gate of Jing’an Hou Mansion opened wide, and guests came to the door one after another.

Wen also got up early that day and was sitting in front of the dressing table, letting Nian Qiao comb her hair.

“Madam, if you can’t stand it, you can talk to the old lady.” Madam Cai worried.

Wen looked in the mirror, his slightly pale face: “After recuperating for these two days, it has been much better. It’s not that I’m sick, how can I be so pretentious.”

Madam Cai lowered his eyes, Wen looked at Madam Cai in the mirror, and smiled: “I know what you are worried about. I am afraid that I will feel uncomfortable seeing Ye Chengde… If I don’t go, wouldn’t it be a show of weakness to him! Why should I not go?”

Madam Cai knew that if she was not allowed to go, she would be stunned in the house, so she nodded: “Madam is right.”

After changing clothes, Wen went to the Anning Hall with Mother Cai.

At the pavilion not far from Anning Hall, I met Luo and Ye Chenggang’s wife, followed by a nanny, hugging a three or four-year-old girl, who was Luo’s daughter.

“Sister-in-law.” Luo Shi smiled and stepped forward. She saw Wen’s slightly pale face. Even with light makeup, it could not be completely covered up, so she frowned, “I heard that you have been sick recently.”

“Yes, it’s just the wind and cold.” Coughed twice.

But Luo Shi faintly learned from Ye Lingjiao that Wen was sickened by the outer chamber in Songhua Lane.

Roche secretly scolded Ye Chengde many times in his heart. He was very sympathetic to Wen, and stepped forward to hold Wen’s hand: “The recent hot weather can really make people sick. Sister-in-law should pay more attention to it.”

“Yes.” Wen nodded with a smile.

The concubines and concubines just went to the Anning Hall together. Just outside the courtyard door, he collided with Ye Chengde.

Ye Chengde didn’t even look at Wen’s body, still with a refined look, watching Ye Chenggang say hello: “Third brother.”

“Hey!” Ye Chenggang responded heartily. Regarding Ye Chengde’s raising the outside room…what does it matter to him? He just cleaned the snow in front of his door.

A few people walked into the west room of Anning Hall, and the others had arrived long ago.

Miao’s changed a new dark red Fulu Shouhang silk long twill, wearing a dark red peacock pattern inlaid with pearls on his forehead, sitting on the couch with Ye Hewen, and being worshipped by his children and grandchildren.

Ye Chengde, Ye Chengxin, Ye Chenggang and Ye Lingjiao stood in the first row.

Wen’s, Sun’s, and Luo’s stood in a row.

Ye Yun, Ye Rong, Ye Weicai, and the nurse holding Luo’s daughter, and a nurse holding the second-hand concubine stood in a row.

A room of people bowed to Miao and said auspicious words for birthday, Miao smiled and asked them to get up: “Okay, you all have to do your own thing!”

The three Ye Chengde brothers arched their hands and turned around. Ye Yun looked at Wen once again, only to see that Wen’s face was pale and not very ill, and he sighed with great relief.

“Old man, since the wind is cold, go back and rest.” Miao said.

“Thank you, mother.” Wen said and looked at Ye Yun: “Brother Yun, you can help your mother go back.”

Ye Yun only felt heartbroken, but Wen spoke up, so he refused, so he had to come forward and help her: “Mother, let’s go.” After thinking about it, she looked at Ye Weicai: “Sister , Let’s accompany my mother back together.”

Ye Weicai was startled, thinking that she didn’t come forward immediately, and she looked very filial, her face flushed red, and she quickly stood up and stepped forward to support Wen’s other hand: “Mother, let’s go back.”

Ye Yun supported Wen and fought two battles all the way, for fear that Wen would ask him about Songhua Lane, but thinking that Ye Wei was here, she couldn’t ask, and she was not so afraid.

It was like torture all the way, and finally returned to the Rongguiyuan. Ye Yun asked Wen to lie down before saying, “Mother, the mansion of Zhuang Guohou will also come today. The Baohuan said he wanted to throw a pot with me. I’ll go and see him. Has it come yet.”

I thought Wen would scold him, but I didn’t want Wen to just respond indifferently: “Well, you go!”

Ye Yun breathed a sigh of relief, and smiled with a split mouth: “Then I’ll go first.”

After speaking, she slipped out with oil on the soles of her feet. Madam Cai looked at his leaving figure, gritted her teeth: “This **** thing!”

“Leave him alone.” Wen said weakly.

“Mother, do you want to drink water?” Ye Weicai said with concern.

“No need. Today on your grandmother’s birthday, you go outside to help your sister-in-law entertain the female relatives. Here you can have Nianqiao and Madam Cai. Go ahead!” Wen said.

Ye Weicai looked at Wen’s disease in bed, for fear that others would say that she was unfilial, but she also wanted to play. After hearing Wen’s remarks, she nodded and said with a smile: “Is there anything fun? I will tell my mother when I turn around. listen.”

“Okay, you are the best, go ahead!”

Ye Weicai just hopped away.

Ye Wei picked up the Rongguiyuan and walked along the bluestone road. When she returned to the Anning Hall, it was already full of liveliness. There were bursts of laughter, and it was obvious that a lot of people had come to pray for birthdays.

Ye Weicai stretched her neck and looked inside, and saw that there were already many female relatives sitting inside, all of whom she knew.

She walked in and saluted: “I have seen the first aunt, the second aunt, Mrs. Bao, and Mrs. Wen. And all the sisters.”

“Okay, get up!” Miao Shi smiled and waved.

The guests in the room were Ye Lingjiao’s two married concubines. The Da Ye family was married to the five sons of the Jinwei Hou Mansion, and the Xiao Ye family was married to a seven-tier official. Da Ye’s came with his little daughter, an eight-year-old clever girl. Xiao Ye has only one son, and he has gone outside to play with his sons and buddies.

Mrs. Bao is Mrs. Zhuang Guohou, who is sitting on the armchair with Bao Qi.

Mrs. Wen is the Wen family, Wen Lanya’s mother Chen. Wen Lanya and Bao Qi were sitting opposite each other.

Especially the last time Ye Li Cai got married, Bao Qi praised Ye Li Cai, but in the end the dowry box rolled out the stone, which was very faceless. For fear of being teased by Wen Lanya, she didn’t even go to the star picking platform in May and June.

But now it’s been a long time, she doesn’t feel shameless, and she went to Ye Licai once and found that Ye Licai was pregnant, and she felt like a duck in her husband’s house. That’s enough to slap Ye Tang’s face!

Thinking of this, Bao Qi looked at Miao, pursed her mouth and smiled: “Old lady, I heard that Li Jie’er had a good time in Zhang’s family.” For girls, it’s not easy to say that they are pregnant.

“Yes, yes!” Miao Shi smiled faintly.

The Sun family who was standing next to him couldn’t close his mouth even more: “That child is indeed blessed.”

Miao’s corner twitched and glanced at her lightly. Ye Hewen didn’t dare to give Zhongxie to her because the two rooms and one nest made Ye Licai’s wedding like that. Ye Lingjiao was about to get married, so she simply handed it over to Ye Lingjiao.

Today’s birthday banquet was hosted by Ye Lingjiao and Luo Shi. The aunts and aunts went out early to entertain the female relatives and so on. Although the Sun family didn’t give the gift in the palm of their hands, they had to go and help out on this occasion!

But Sun did not. Seeing a visitor, he took root as soon as he sat on the armchair, just to brag about Ye Licai in front of others! I also waited for Ye Li to pick it up and show off together.

Wen Lanya heard Sun’s shameless confession, and the sarcasm passed through her eyes, and her heart was very unhappy.

While talking, I heard the maid outside: “The Chu family and grandma and aunt are here.”

“Yeah, Ye Tang has picked it back.” Bao Qi raised her eyebrows and smiled, “I wonder if there is anything she can do this time?”

Wen Lanya’s face turned black, and she gave Bao Qi a cold glance.

As he was talking, the curtain was opened, Ye Tangcai and Qin came in, followed by the Chu family sisters.

Bao Qi secretly pouted her lips when she saw it, and she was sullen! Looking at Ye Tangcai who had walked up to her, she smiled and said, “Sister Tang, this old lady Ye has a birthday, why don’t you come here?”

Thinking that Ye Tangcai would be embarrassed or black-faced to retort, she turned around and called out: “Call you, come on!”

Bao Qi and Wen Lan Yaju were stunned, stretched their necks and looked out, only to see a deserted and handsome young man walk in, a light blue simple straight, ink hair like a waterfall, gorgeous eyebrows, beautiful and clear temperament.

Bao Qi and Wen Lanya looked at Chu Yunpanman and couldn’t believe that this was her bastard, who actually grew up like this? Since it grows like this, why didn’t you bring it back last time?

Bao Qi’s face was dark and heavy, but the gaze that fell on Chu Yunpan was reluctant to take it back. Wen Lanya smiled faintly, yes, at least this long-looking face!

Everyone in the Chu family saw the ceremony and said birthday wishes to the Miao family, and the Miao family let them get up.

Wen Lanya pulled Ye Tangcai: “Sister Tang, why didn’t Ye Licai bring her cousin back when she got married last time?”

“Uh…didn’t you? He is busy with things.” Ye Tangcai said.

Wen Lanya let out an oh, and then looked at Bao Qi: “I was busy last time.” She said and laughed.

Sun looked at it, hehe twice, and glanced at Qin’s mother and daughter with contempt.

“Mrs. Chu, Miss Chu, sit down!” Miao greeted him quickly and said to Ye Tang: “Sister Tang, your mother is cold, go and see her.”

“Yes.” Ye Tang Cai responded.

“Mother-in-law is cold? Then let’s go see her too!” Qin clan smiled, really hating Sun clan’s obvious gaze.

And I haven’t seen the Zhang family here either, obviously they haven’t come yet. She even didn’t want to meet Ye Licai and Zhang’s family.

“Is my aunt ill?” Wen Lan Ya pulled Chen’s: “Mother, let’s go see my aunt.”

Chen patted her hand and turned around to talk.

Miao smiled and said, “Go and go.”

Mrs. Bao smiled and said: “You all go, I will go again when you go out, it’s not too crowded.”

So Ye Tangcai and Chu’s family, together with Wen Lanya’s mother and daughter, left the house and went all the way to Ronggui Courtyard.

Along the way, Chu Miaoshu and Chu Miaohua looked at the lush gardens, pavilions and pavilions, everything is really good. Although these buildings are also in Chu’s house, they are already dilapidated. How can they be as colorful as here.

Walking along the Neifu River, we were divided into flowers and willows. Passing by two pavilions, we saw a wide courtyard, the Ronggui courtyard where Wen lived.

“Mother, sisters, please.” Ye Tang Cai made a gesture and invited Qin’s mother and daughter in.

Wen Lanya’s mother and daughter were used to coming early, and hurriedly entered the door.

When the maid in the yard saw the visitor, she went to the house to report. Mother Cai greeted her and smiled: “Everyone, please come in!” The curtain was closed.

Everyone hurried into the room, and after a while, the room was full of people.

Wen was leaning on the bed, then smiled and wanted to get up, Ye Tangcai quickly held her down: “How have these two days been better?”

“It’s much better, it doesn’t matter. Just stay for a few days.” Wen smiled and looked up to see Chu Yun Panqing Lingling, a handsome young man with a peerless appearance. He was very happy.

Ye Tangcai was overjoyed when she saw Chu Yunpan, and the corners of her mouth twitched. It was true that the mother-in-law looked at her son-in-law, the more she looked at her, the happier she became!

“Auntie, why are you cold? This hot day.” Wen Lanya said.

Then everyone chattered and asked, staying here for a quarter of an hour, Wen said that he would take medicine, and everyone left.

After leaving the door of Rongguiyuan, Qin said, “Where do you used to entertain guests? Let’s get there.”

“Guishi Perfume Pavilion.” Ye Tangcai said, “I’ll go back and sit with my grandmother for a while, mother, let’s go first!”

The grandmother’s birthday, the granddaughter did not even sit down, she must be with her for a while to act filial piety.

Ye Tangcai again ordered: “Qiuju, take my mother and sisters over.”

“No need, where should I go,” Chen said.

So as soon as the Qin family and the Chu family sisters left with the Chen family, Ye Tangcai looked at Chu Yunpan again: “Are you going outside?”

“Good.” Chu Yunpan nodded. An Ning Tang is all female relatives. Although he is a grandson-in-law, it is not good to stay there, only the male guests from outside.

Ye Tangcai and Wen Lanya returned to the Anning Hall. Before they walked into the room, they heard the Sun’s laughter from the Xicijian. Ye Tangcai and Wen Lanya twitched their mouths. Don’t guess, it must be Ye Licai and Zhang Jia!

The two looked at each other, then walked into the room and turned into the west room.

I saw Meng, Ye Licai, Zhang Boyuan and Zhang Manman praying to Zhang Miao’s birthday: “I wish the old lady a blessing in the East China Sea, and a longevity than Nanshan.”

“Okay, get up!” Miao Shi smiled and nodded.

I saw that Zhang Boyuan had helped Ye Licai to walk to the circle on the left and helped her to sit down. Meng Shi and Zhang Manman were also seated on the side.

Bao Qi smiled and said, “Young Master Zhang is really nice to Sister Li. He who is careful and hopeful, like a Liuli doll, is really more squeamish after marrying.”

As soon as the words came out, the people in the room burst into laughter.

“I’m so squeamish…” Ye Licai smiled sweetly and looked a little shy.

“This is the child just got his upper body, so take care of it.” Sun clan said happily. He suddenly turned around and was even more happy to see Ye Tang’s picking it back. “Auntie and grandma are back. Sit down!”

Ye Tang twitched the corners of her mouth, and still walked in with Wen Lanya. Next to Xiaoye’s, she found two embroidered piers and sat down.
