Family Has a Concubine

Ye Tangcai and Qiuju Hui ran out of the house, and Luzhi saw Ye Tangcai's joke, so she stepped forward: Third Mistress, I will take you there!

As he spoke, he walked ahead with air.

A few people came out of the Yixiang Courtyard and found the Neiyi Gate. From the courtyard, they went straight through the South Hall, turned and walked eastward before the second gate, passed five or six courtyards, and walked for about a quarter of an hour before arriving at the Chu Family Ancestral Hall.

Luzhi pushed open the gate of the ancestral hall and led several people into the compound, and then pushed open the carved wooden door of the main house, and saw rows of memorial tablets for the martyrs of the Chu family inside.

Lu Zhi stood outside the door and didn't go in: Third Grandma, you should kneel inside! Reflect on yourself!

Ye Tangcai walked in and knelt down on the futon.

Qiuju and Huiran looked at Ye Tangcai's kneeling back, and their hearts were blocked.

You two, the master is kneeling inside, so why are you just standing outside and watching? Is this the gauge of your Jing'an Hou Mansion? Lu Zhi said.

You have a lot of gauges here! Qiuju's face was gloomy.

It's natural. Luzhi sneered, looking rather smug.

Huiran pulled Qiuju with a bitter face, but Qiuju's face was ashen, full of unwillingness.

Ye Tangcai grew up so big, she had never had the experience of kneeling as a punishment, Ye Licai had kneeled quite a lot, but it was only Ye Licai kneeling, the maids did not.

Looking at Lu Zhi's expression now, it is nothing more than oppressing them.

Qiuju was not angry, but thinking of the current situation and seeing that even Ye Tangcai was being punished obediently, she sniffled and knelt down with a plop.

Lu Zhi was overjoyed, and admired it for a while before turning to leave.

A few people walked along the way just now, and the servant girl who had something good to do paid attention to them. After all, when Ye Tangcai came in, the old matriarch suddenly came out to suppress them, which made the other masters in the mansion dare not move.

But the matriarch's residual prestige will pass one day, and everyone is looking forward to how the third mistress will be rubbed by the mistress and aunt.

Now I suddenly heard that Ye Tangcai was called into the Yixiangyuan, and then was led by Luzhi to the direction of the ancestral hall, and they got together to discuss it.

When Luzhi came out of the gate of the ancestral hall, there were a few maids who were sweeping the house talking about it, and one of the black and thin maids was bold and stepped forward with a smile: Sister Luzhi, where did you go with the third grandma just now?

Go to the ancestral hall! Luzhi sneered: These days my wife is sick, and the eldest grandma is always in front of me, but the third grandma is wandering around. She is disrespectful and filial, and doesn't understand the rules, so the wife punishes her to kneel in the ancestral hall and reflect on herself. !

After speaking, he turned and left.

When the maids heard this, they exploded their nests.

One said: Tsk tsk, such a noble daughter, to be punished by the wife like this.

The other said: So what about the rich daughter? When you enter the Chu family, you will be the daughter-in-law of the Chu family, and she is still a concubine. How can she do anything wrong! From now on, you will not be a man with your tail between your legs!

The maidservants kept discussing, most of them took pleasure in others' misfortune.

...

After kneeling in the ancestral hall for about a quarter of an hour, Qiuju felt a huge pain in her knees, her eyes were red, she burst into tears, and whimpered, We shouldn't have come here in the first place.

Okay, you really can't take it anymore, go back to Jing'an Hou Mansion tomorrow to serve your wife! Hui Ran gave her a glare.

Who said I want to go back! Qiu Ju answered with a twitch, I'm just wronged for the girl.

Even she has never experienced this kind of grievance, let alone Ye Tangcai!

You better say a few words less! Hui Ran said angrily.

When will this kind of day be a head! Qiuju wiped away her tears.

Huiran lowered her head, her expression was a bit sad.

It is common for a mother-in-law to rub her daughter-in-law, let alone a concubine. But other families have the support of their mother's family, and the in-law's family will also have scruples. But now, the Wen family can't even protect themselves, and the second wife has gained power, so it's fine if they don't suppress them, and they are still counting on their support?

When Ye Licai gets married, after Zhang's family has established itself, Jing'anhou's mansion will be dominated by the second wife, and her mother's family and her in-law's family will suppress her together. On that day...

Thinking of this, Huiran felt a little anxious, and sighed leisurely, what should I do in the future?

An hour later, Ye Tangcai tilted his body and fell to the ground.

Girl! Hui Ran knelt until her knees were numb, but enduring the pain, she rushed in.

I'm fine. Ye Tangcai stood up with Huiran's strength, her bright little face was very pale, and her face was covered with beads of sweat.

Girl, can you go? Qiuju stepped forward while rubbing her knees.

Take a break first! Ye Tangcai exhaled, and the three of them rested in the yard for about a quarter of an hour before walking back.

The maids along the way looked at the three masters and servants, either whispering or sneering at them. Qiuju felt the eyes of these people, and was angry and annoyed.

When the three of them returned to Qiongmingxuan, Ye Tangcai leaned on the Luohan bed to breathe, while Qiuju and Huiran also sat on the chairs.

Ye Tang took a rest for a while, then frowned suddenly, then got up, and glanced at the antique shelf and treasure chest.

Girl, what are you looking for? Hui Ran asked.

Why is there a bonsai missing? Ye Tangcai's face sank slightly, There is also a pair of white porcelain vases, why are they missing?

Chu Yunpan's room was so simple that it could be described as shabby, without even a single decoration.

After Ye Tangcai moved in, he thought it was too deserted, so he picked out a few pieces of porcelain and bonsai from the dowry, and put them on the antique shelf, which made the cold room a lot more elegant.

Huiran and Qiuju were taken aback, and they also looked at the ancient shelf. Sure enough, a Changchun white stone bonsai and a pair of kiln white crane vases were missing!

Sister Qiuju! Sister Qiuju! A voice suddenly sounded in the courtyard.

It's Xiang'er. Qiuju hurried to the small hall and looked outside. The person who came was a twelve or thirteen-year-old, skinny maid in gray clothes. This was Ye Tangcai's rough servant girl who made Qiuju deal with her well.

Xiang'er lowered her body and ran in: After you went to the ancestral hall just now, I saw Aunt Fei enter your Qiongming Pavilion! She came in empty-handed, but went out with her things in her arms!

What did you say? Qiuju's face darkened.

Xiang'er said: I'm timid, I dare not lean over, but there are other servant girls who are bold, and teased Aunt Fei how to get things from Qiongmingxuan, Aunt Fei said, this is the third grandma's filial piety to her!

Those dirty things! Qiu Ju trembled with anger.

Thank you very much. Huiran had already walked out, grabbed a small string of money and stuffed it into her hand, which was worth a hundred bucks.

No, no...how can I want it! Xiang'er originally came back from Qiuju's dealings with money. But after going back and forth, the two got to know each other well, so Xiang'er was a little embarrassed to accept the money.

What are you pushing, you deserve it. Qiuju pushed back. Go away, you won't be seen by others, but it will make things difficult for you.

Xiang'er took the money, very happy, thanked and thanked before running away.

Huiran and Qiuju looked at each other, then turned to look at Ye Tangcai.

Seeing Ye Tangcai sneer, he stood up.

Qiu Ju was startled: Girl, where are you going?

Go and get the things back! Ye Tangcai said and stretched.

But... Hui Ran gave Ye Tangcai a careful look, We were beaten by our wife, it's best to endure it now...

What are you enduring? This girl has never been someone who can endure! Ye Tangcai smiled brightly.

But... Hui Ran was taken aback. Didn't you just endure it with your wife today and go obediently to be punished?

I have been thinking about my girl's dowry for a long time, but I have never succeeded! Ye Tangcai said and walked out, No one who dares to pick up my girl's dowry will end well!
