Jiangmen Tianjiao: Reborn with funny ancestors

The next day, when Chu Ye went to court, he received greetings from his colleagues.

"Mr. Chu, have you ever used court food? If not, I have some here. You can deal with it first..."

"The look on Mr. Chu's face must be that he is malnourished. When the court comes next, I will be the host and invite Mr. Chu to Fan Lou for a big meal."

"Your Excellency, please don't refuse. Eating too much pig brains is bad for your health. I will take care of your lunch from now on."

……

Monk Chu Ye was confused.

Although he usually has a good relationship with his colleagues, today everyone was a little too enthusiastic and he couldn't stand it.

When he entered the Guanghua Hall, Chu Ye felt that the person on the throne was also staring at him, and he felt even more frightened.

After his death, some imperial officials praised the Chu family for saving food and clothing for the country, and even ate pig brains every day in order to replenish their physical strength.

At the end of the article, I also praised the ladies and ladies who generously donated money to support the front line at the birthday banquet of Wu Ningbo Mansion yesterday.

Chu Ye secretly wiped a cold sweat.

He knew without guessing that this must be the fault of his eldest niece.

At any rate, if you have caused trouble, let's talk to your second uncle first so that I can be prepared.

Chu Ye was complaining about Chu Tianjiao, and Chu Tianjiao was also upset when he got up early in the morning.

Last night, I slept on the same bed as Chu Yun'er for the first time, but the sisters I had imagined meeting for a night talk did not appear.

They both fell asleep as soon as they touched the bed.

Before falling asleep, Chu Tianjiao felt that she had forgotten something. When she woke up and remembered that she should talk to Chu Ye first, Chu Ye had already gone to court.

Chu Tianjiao, who was worried, pulled Chu Yuner up.

"Thirty-one thousand, thirty-two thousand, thirty-three thousand..."

Chu Yun'er muttered a series of numbers and was still counting money in her dream.

As soon as she returned home last night, Mrs. Wu Ningbo's Crown Prince sent someone to deliver the items and list of donations raised at the banquet to Chu Tianjiao.

Wang's roommate also gave Chu Tianjiao 2000 taels in silver notes, saying that it was the prince's wife who secretly subsidized Chu Tianjiao.

Let Chu Tianjiao never abuse his mouth and use this money to buy whatever he wants to eat.

Chu Tianjiao didn't feel bad about accepting the donations, but Wang's 2000 taels felt a little bad about it.

After refusing for a long time, the roommate insisted on leaving the banknote.

The two sisters started counting the money against the list last night. They couldn't contain their excitement after counting.

They actually raised more than 4 taels worth of property for the frontline soldiers.

Chu Yun'er was still pinched by her eldest sister's nose.

After the two sisters washed up, they didn't have time to have breakfast, so they took these belongings to the upper courtyard.

Because Madam Chu was ill, the old lady had already gone to bed when the two sisters returned home yesterday.

They only saw Nanny Li and did not disturb Mrs. Chu.

Madam Chu was in better spirits today, and she was very surprised to see the two of them coming together.

"Xiao Cui, am I dazzled? The second girl is actually holding the elder girl's arm. Did she take the wrong medicine?"

Chu Yun'er has been fighting with Chu Tianjiao since she was a child, and her indomitable spirit, which has been defeated and defeated many times, is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Even the third lady, Li Wanniang, who was waiting on the side, was amazed and joked: "Second niece, are you finally convinced by your eldest sister?"

Chu Yun'er let go of Chu Tianjiao in embarrassment, stomped her feet and acted coquettishly at Li Wanniang: "Third Aunt!"

Chu Tianjiao asked Qingluan to bring the property to the table in front of Mrs. Chu.

Mrs. Chu's eyes widened and she asked, "Girl, did you go and rob the Qizhen Pavilion?"

Chu Tianjiao was shocked when he heard this and said excitedly: "Grandma, Jiang is still too old. Why didn't I think of robbing the Qizhen Pavilion?"

After Chu Yun'er vividly described to Madam Chu and the third lady Li Wanniang the process of raising money yesterday, both of them turned their attention to Chu Tianjiao.

Chu Tianjiao straightened his back, smiled like a flower on his face, and looked proud and begging for praise.

A trace of worry flashed in Madam Chu's eyes, but she did not say anything. Instead, she followed Chu Yun'er's words and joked:

"My wife has been telling you to eat pig brains every day, but I never thought you could earn more than 4 taels of military pay."

These words caused a burst of laughter in the room.

Later, the steward came to report, and someone from the palace came to deliver the order.

Mrs. Chu hurriedly led everyone to change clothes and freshen up, and went to the main hall in the front yard to receive the order.

The content of the imperial edict is generally to commend the Marquis of Liyang for his diligence and thrift in running the family, and for abiding by his duties. The family members of the Marquis have a clear understanding of righteousness and serve the country wholeheartedly.

The emperor rewarded the Hou Mansion with 5000 taels of gold, and also specially rewarded Chu Tianjiao, the eldest daughter of the Hou Mansion, with various rare jewelry.

After the Chu family thanked her, Mrs. Chu stuffed a red envelope into her father-in-law who came to announce the decree, and sent him out of the house respectfully.

When only her family was left, Chu Yun'er looked at the gold and jewelry given by the emperor and exclaimed: "Sister, if you cry for poverty, our family will make a lot of money!"

Chu Tianjiao grinned, selected a few pieces of jewelry suitable for Chu Yun'er from the imperial gift, and handed them to her: "Here, I'll give them to you!"

Chu Yun'er took the jewelry and walked up to Chu Tianjiao and whispered: "Sister, I will not take these jewelry out. From now on, when I go out, I will try to wear them as loosely as possible and never show off my wealth!"

Chu Tianjiao patted Chu Yun'er's shoulder and praised: "You can teach a kid!"

Back in the upper court, Mrs. Chu didn't seem too happy.

After driving the others away, Madam Chu asked Chu Tianjiao: "Are you sure the person behind Qizhen Pavilion has something to do with the Ye family?"

Chu Tianjiao nodded affirmatively.

Chu Tianjiao did not hide anything from Mrs. Chu, and told Mrs. Chu his reasoning process in detail.

Mrs. Chu frowned and sighed: "Whether it is Ye Shangshu or not, the words you openly insinuated that the Ye family is greedy for money at the banquet this time have probably reached Ye Shangshu's ears."

"The next days for your second uncle will be difficult..."

This is actually what Chu Tianjiao is worried about, but confronting the Ye family is inevitable. We can only hope that the person hiding behind the Qizhen Pavilion is not Ye Linxuan himself.

That night, in the Shangshu Mansion, Ye Linxuan called Ye Tinglan to him and asked Uncle Wu Ning about the scene at the birthday banquet in detail.

Ye Linxuan, who is in his fifties this year, has a slim figure and a dignified appearance. He prides himself on being a clean figure among scholars. He is Ye Tinglan's grandfather.

Ye Tinglan did not dare to talk about the time when she showed off her wealth in Qizhen Pavilion, but her little tricks could not escape Ye Linxuan's eyes.

Under Ye Linxuan's repeated questioning, Ye Tinglan was forced to give a clear explanation.

"Confused, you are a concubine, who gave you the courage to go out and show off in the name of my Ye family?"

"Who gave you that VIP card? Don't hide anything!"

Ye Tinglan did not admit that she had a VIP card, but everyone on the street knew about this card. How could she keep it a secret?

Ye Tinglan didn't dare to tell the truth, so she gritted her teeth and insisted that she picked it up herself.

The tea cup in Ye Linxuan's hand hit Ye Tinglan directly. Ye Tinglan couldn't avoid it and was hit on the forehead. Fortunately, the tea in the cup was not hot.

"Picked it up? Do you think I'm an idiot like your father? Did your mother give it to you? Tell the truth!"

Ye Tinglan still refused to admit it, making Ye Linxuan so angry that he wanted to enforce family law.

At this time, Ye Tinglan's father rushed in, knelt on the ground and begged Ye Linxuan:

"Dad, please spare Lan'er. I gave Lan'er that card."

Ye Linxuan kicked his eldest son and cursed: "Do you know how much trouble you and your daughter have caused me?"

"Today in the court, the Holy Father asked me, is my Ye family already as rich as the rest of the country? Can a little concubine in the family spend 10 taels a year in Qizhen Pavilion?"

"The image of integrity that I have worked so hard for so many years has been ruined by your little VIP card!"

"Take your daughter and go to the ancestral hall and kneel for seven days without eating!"

After driving away his son and granddaughter, Ye Linxuan still felt uneasy and said bitterly:

"Marquis Liyang, Chu Ge, don't blame me for manipulating you behind your back. If you want to blame me, blame your good daughter!"
