Family Has a Concubine

In the early morning, sunlight shines through the leaves on the tiled roof and winding corridors, casting rays of light on the entire Qiongming Pavilion.

Ye Tangcai opened his eyes sleepily, and heard someone talking in the small hall outside.

She went out to have a look, and saw a gray-clothed woman talking to Hui Ran, so she smiled: Hey, isn't this Qiao Mama?

Morning third grandma. Mother Qiao laughed so hard when she saw Ye Tangcai.

Mother Qiao doesn't need to be too polite. Ye Tang agreed.

Mother Qiao put the food box on the table: This is breakfast for the third grandma.

On the night of the wedding, Grandma Qiao came to help. Ye Tangcai thought she was Qiong Mingxuan's mother-in-law, but she hasn't seen her since she came back yesterday. She was a little curious, but now she smelled oily smoke, so she said : Mammy works in the kitchen?

Yes. Mother Qiao said, The maidservant was originally the third master's nanny. The third master is older and doesn't need a nanny, so the servant girl was transferred to the kitchen.

The big kitchen is far away from Qiongmingxuan, so the people in the kitchen don't like to go to this unlucky place. Delivering meals to Qiongmingxuan has always been Mammy Qiao's job, but because the people in the kitchen wanted to have a look at Ye Tangcai yesterday, Xiaocao made a trip.

The third master has a wife, and Grandma Qiao is very happy, even if she is embarrassed again in the kitchen, she is still happy.

Qiuju, go ask the third master to come over for dinner. Ye Tang said.

No need. Mother Qiao smiled, The third master has gone out. The third master has to go out to study in the study at every hour of every day.

Study? Ye Tangcai was taken aback.

Mother Qiao nodded: Not only the third master, but also the son and the second master, as well as the son of the son, and even the girls have to study. This is the rule set by the master! The master is very talkative in other aspects, except for the study department There is no room for negotiation in the exam, and my wife also very much agrees with the master's move.

Ye Tangcai couldn't help but frowned, this Chu family is a family of generals! But now they are forced to study one by one, and there is no one left.

Then, did you come up with a trick? Qiu Ju's eyes widened.

How can it be! Mother Qiao said helplessly, smiling wryly. But the master suppresses it, so you can't do it if you don't read it!

Ye Tangcai said: Speaking of which, the names of the eldest son, the second master, and the third master don't even have a single word in common.

Mother Qiao said: Hehe, this is not a secret, the third grandma will know after being here for a long time. Although the Chu family is a family of generals and has been famous for generations, but when it comes to the master... the master is not very good at leading soldiers to fight Proficient, I wanted to take the scientific examination, but it was too late, so I had to continue to lead the army outside.

After the second master was born, the master named him as a subject. He hoped that the second master would take the scientific examination. He didn't want to be beaten by the old man. Later, when the third master was born, the master didn't dare to choose the name randomly. It was chosen by the old man. Name. Now that the family has become like this, the master is naturally more concerned about the scientific examination, and even in his dreams, he wants to have a scholar in the family to shine on the family!

Ye Tangcai was speechless.

The third master ate at Lanzhuju early in the morning, and the servants were afraid that the breakfast would be cold, so they brought the third grandma's portion now. Mother Qiao said.

Huiran has already opened the food box. Because of the food last night, she had no expectations for breakfast, but she was speechless when she saw what was inside.

Three big white steamed buns, a small bowl of white porridge and a small plate of pickles, this amount is obviously for the three of them, master and servant. Shouldn't she be glad that the steamed bun is not Zamian?

Mother Qiao was embarrassed: Third Grandma must not be used to it... But the servant is a weak person. Although she works in the kitchen, she can't help at all.

What's the matter? Ye Tangcai smiled lightly.

Hearing this, Mother Qiao was so moved that she didn't mind going through hardships with the third master! What a good girl, she is different from other daughters.

After breakfast, Ye Tangcai led Qiuju and Huiran out.

The south side of the mansion in the wife's yard? Ye Tang asked.

Well, even the two girls live there. When I inquired about the news with Xiang'er yesterday, I asked her to show me the way in the mansion. Qiuju nodded, But I don't think the wife wants to see the girls. .”

Ye Tangcai said: It's her business that she doesn't see her, but I have to be courteous.

Several people left the courtyard gate and walked along the willow-shaded path.

Along the way, the pavilions, terraces and pavilions are mostly desolate because no one takes care of them. Except for a road that is often walked, weeds are overgrown everywhere. It wasn't until we passed the Neiyi Gate that the scenery gradually became brighter, and the trees in the garden were well-groomed.

Girl, that's where my wife lives. Qiuju whispered.

Ye Tangcai looked up and saw a plaque with the words Yixiangyuan hanging on the courtyard. The walls outside the courtyard were painted white and surrounded by surroundings.

Hui Ran knocked on the door, and after a while, a maid opened the door: Who is it?

Luzhi opened the door, and when she saw someone coming, she was startled: Third, third grandma...

Luzhi looked at Ye Tangcai and gasped. Yesterday she just took a look at it from a distance, but now that she took a closer look, she seemed to be more lively and fragrant.

Ye Tangcai was dressed very plainly today, not as ostentatious as yesterday. She wore a light blue soft silk jacket with a plain face, a light red densely woven begonia flower dress on her lower body, a simple cloud-falling bun on her hair, and a Huasheng with white jade inlaid with red coral on her hairpin. But even so, she is still beautiful.

Ye Tangcai smiled lightly: Sister, please inform mother, and my daughter-in-law will come to pay her respects.

Lu Zhi was startled: You, you wait.

After finishing speaking, he closed the door, and ran out after a while and said: My wife said, I came back from Minzhou yesterday, and I was exhausted by boats and cars. Since I got up this morning, I have been feeling a little unhappy, so I haven't seen you for a while. Third grandma, please come back. Bar.

Since that's the case, this sister will say hello to my mother for me! After speaking, Ye Tangcai turned and left.

Lu Zhi closed the courtyard door, ran back, opened the curtain of Xiangyun Brocade, and saw Mrs. Qin sitting on the couch, her daughter-in-law Jiang Xinxue standing beside her.

Jiang Xinxue said: Can we go?

Let's go. Green Branch said in a low voice.

Qin's pretty face was a little gloomy, and she slapped the kang table on the side with her hand wrapped in a handkerchief: What the hell! She's just a concubine!

What happened at Qiongmingxuan last night? Jiang Xinxue asked.

Qiongmingxuan is such an unlucky place, usually they are too lazy to talk to each other. Jiang Xinxue had better please her mother-in-law. Because of Ye Tangcai's arrival, she sent two maids to watch over her.

No. Green Branch shook his head.

Not when the dinner was delivered? Jiang Xinxue couldn't believe it.

There is no change at all, and Xiaocao also saw Third Grandma's maid running to ask Third Master to eat.

Both Jiang Xinxue and Qin frowned. Chu Yunpan's usual food, no one knows better than them. This Ye Tangcai is the eldest daughter of the concubine of the Jing'an Hou Mansion, and the food and clothing she usually eats and wears are many times finer than theirs.

Now, with such food as Chu Yunpan, she didn't make a fuss! It is also a miracle!
