The return of the son of rebirth

"You should take a long-term view. This Meng Tianwen is just the son of a magistrate. There are many people who are more noble than him in this world. Why don't we try to curry favor with him? Xing'er, since you have passed the exam Scholars, why not go to a better academy to make friends with more noble people. I will find an opportunity to suggest to your father that you study at Qinghe College in Jinling. There are more noble people waiting for you to make friends with. If there are good ones, you can pay attention to one or two for your sister."

"Mother..." Ye Wanjiao blushed instantly, she was only twelve, it was too early to say those things, and she didn't forget Meng Tianwen so quickly in her heart.Besides, even if she didn't want Meng Tianwen anymore, she couldn't make Ye Wanru cheaper.

The next morning, Ye Wanjiao dressed up meticulously, and when she went to Ninghui Hall to pay her respects, she was praised by Mrs. Ye. Compared with her, Ye Wanru's dress was too plain, like a decent big maid.

Mrs. Ye couldn't understand Ye Wanjiao's appearance that she thought she was a legitimate daughter. After the greetings were over, she immediately recruited Ye Wanru and gave her a good outfit.With this outfit, Ye Wanru's overall image is no worse than Ye Wanjiao.

Seeing her change, Ye Wanjiao immediately vomited blood, and the jealousy in her heart rose.She felt more and more that Ye Wanru would definitely steal her limelight in the future.

"Fifth Sister is so beautiful in this outfit. Why didn't you greet Grandma in this outfit just now? Seeing that you are so beautiful, Grandma must be very happy too. When people are happy, they feel better."

What Ye Wanjiao said was that Ye Wanru deliberately made the old lady unhappy.

"Second sister misunderstood me. This dress and headgear were given by my mother just now."

"She gave it to you?" Ye Wanjiao frowned, that headgear looked like a good thing, so why give it to her?She never got good things from Mrs. Ye.

"What? You have a problem with me giving her a tiara and clothes?"

"It's nothing, mother." Ye Wanjiao immediately swallowed all the dissatisfaction in her stomach temporarily.

"You usually spend on food and clothing according to the specifications of a concubine's daughter. Which outfit is worse than Wanru's. But when it comes to this, I think it should be fair for me as a concubine. Both of you are concubines. You should be on an equal footing, you are using the specifications of a prostitute, and Wanru should be like this. I am a bowl of water, which is good for you and good for me. I can't go out and let me say I am partial."

After Madam Ye finished speaking, she immediately called the housekeeper and said, "The housekeeper has ordered that from now on, Fifth Miss' food and clothing costs will be the same as that of Second Miss. Fifth Miss will also have what Second Miss has." "

"Yes, ma'am."

Ye Wanjiao was still a child after all, it was not so easy to hide all her emotions, at this moment her face turned from pink to white and then blue.Ye Wanru actually sat on an equal footing with him from now on, she spit out in a moment of impatience: "I won't allow it."

"Why don't you allow it?" Mrs. Ye scolded angrily, casting a disgusted glance at her. "What status do you have to say no to me. Don't stare at me, you can report to your grandmother, and your grandmother will definitely agree with my move."

Ye Wanjiao immediately came back to her senses, realized her impulsiveness, and hurriedly lowered her head to apologize: "Mom, calm down, I didn't finish my sentence just now, what I said was that I don't allow my fifth sister to have nothing like usual. She is my sister, What I should have, she should have too."

"Hehe." Mrs. Ye sneered. She was young, but her thoughts turned quickly, "It's the best if you think so."

"Let's go, to the Meng Mansion, if you don't want to come, you don't have to." Madam Ye glanced at Ye Wanjiao again.

Mon House

The prefect of Meng is a good official with integrity, so the house of Meng's mansion is very simple, and there are only a few servants who can see it.Seeing the scene here, Ye Wanjiao only had two words in her heart: shabby.

She suddenly felt that if she married such an official with no money in the future, she would marry a rich businessman, and the life that Ye Wanjiao should live in gold and silver.Maybe she should listen to her mother and forget about Meng Tianwen, the princely family owns Dongyue State, not limited to Min County.

When they came to the hall of Meng Mansion, Mrs. Meng was already sitting in the high hall, preparing tea and snacks for them.

Mrs. Meng's complexion is not very good, she looks pale, everyone knows that she is not in good health, and she has been drinking medicine all year round, so she seldom attends public places. It is an honor for them to see her today.

"Madam Meng." The three of them greeted Madam Meng together.

"Mrs. Ye is well. Please sit down quickly, and the two girls please sit down too." Mrs. Meng's voice was a little hoarse. They probably hurt their throats because they were sick and drank too much medicine.

"Mrs. Meng, thanks to Mr. Meng for saving our five girls yesterday. Today, the women on behalf of the Ye family prepared a small gift to express our gratitude."

"Mrs. Ye, you're being polite. My son has already told our husband and wife about what happened last night. It's just a little effort, and it's nothing to worry about."

"But as far as we are concerned, it is a big deal to save the fifth sister's life. Although our Ye family are merchants, we understand the principle of repaying kindness, not to mention that it is a life-saving grace. Madam Meng please accept this small favor from our Ye family."

These words were not spoken by Mrs. Ye, but by Ye Wanjiao. She thought her behavior was very good, but in Mrs. Meng's opinion, she was very unruly.When the lord speaks, if she interjects, at this moment, it is not her turn to speak, a concubine who has nothing to do with this matter.

Madam Meng frowned slightly.

Mrs. Ye was even more dissatisfied with Ye Wanjiao's performance of being strong, and such a performance did not take her seriously.

"Mrs. Meng made me laugh. Our second girl always has something to say. She has always been so straightforward. Don't mind." Mrs. Ye was telling Mrs. Meng that Ye Wanjiao was so unruly in Ye's house.

Ye Wanjiao also understood the meaning, and realized that her forced performance was counterproductive, and she was immediately embarrassed, trying to restore her image, corrected her posture, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Meng, I didn't mean to interrupt, I just hope you I can accept this gift. Don’t let outsiders hear about it and think that our Ye family knows how to repay their kindness.”

A smile appeared on Mrs. Meng's pale face, and she said, "Miss Er, you are too worried. You have already come to thank you, which shows that you are very sincere in your gratitude. It doesn't matter whether you accept the gift or not. You can go back with your things, and we will take care of you." I don't want people to think that our Meng family accepts bribes, and our family appreciates your thanks."

Mrs. Meng suddenly coughed a few times, took a sip of tea, and then said, "I'm sorry Mrs. Ye, I'm not very well, I have to go back to the room and lie down."

Seeing off the guests was so straightforward, Madam Ye didn't dare to wait any longer, she got up and said respectfully: "Then Madam Meng, rest well, I will visit another day, so I will take my leave first."

"Go slowly." Mrs. Meng beckoned the butler to see them off.

After leaving the gate of the Meng Mansion, Madam Ye's face drooped immediately, she glared at Ye Wanjiao, said nothing, she secretly smiled when she got into the carriage, after all, Madam Meng probably didn't like Ye Wanjiao.

Ye Wanjiao was also very annoyed that she was impulsive today, she always wanted to make Madam Meng pay attention to her, so she lost her sense of proportion.She sighed and thought: Forget it, this Meng family is so poor, and Mrs. Meng is a sick child. I don’t know if her disease will be contagious. What is more noble is waiting for her to choose.

After the three members of the Ye family left, Meng Tianwen came out and helped his mother back to the room to rest.

"God asked, I noticed something, and I don't know whether I should say it."

"Mother, you are talking, son, listen, if it's not good, let's forget it."

"I smelled a fragrance on Mrs. Ye." Madam Meng walked a few steps before saying, "I am too sensitive and familiar with this fragrance. After all, I have been poisoned by this fragrance before. I think that Mrs. Ye must not know that she has been assassinated. After all, this matter is a matter of other people's family, and we should not ask about it. But I don't think Mrs. Ye is as evil as the image of the mistress as rumored outside. I don't want her to be deceived again. And the incense will damage the body until it loses all of a person. If it really comes to that time, we will just refuse to save him, and this will be a loss of blessing."

"Mother, you are kind, the Buddha will bless you." Meng Tianwen said, "I will remind Ye Xiandi tactfully sometime. As for whether he can find out, it depends on God's arrangement."

After returning to Ye Mansion, Mrs. Ye naturally wanted to add more details about what happened in Meng Mansion. Naturally, this incident aroused the extreme dissatisfaction of Old Madam Ye.However, she always cared about Ye Wanjiao, and she just told her to pay attention to the rules and propriety in the future.This was the first time that everyone saw Ye Wanru being reprimanded in front of Mrs. Ye. Liu's mother and son had embarrassment on their faces, and everyone else had their own thoughts, especially Mrs. Ye the happiest.

Aunt Liu comforted Ye Wanjiao and asked her to prepare the old lady's birthday gift. As long as she could please the old lady, the old lady would still love her even more.

As a result of the turmoil at the temple fair, after investigation by the government officials, those masked men in black were bandits in the mountains. They deliberately went down to rob the mountain on such a special day in Lixia, but they were punished before they got anything.

After Ye Yuchen heard about it, she felt that the people Aunt Liu bought must not be the bandits, and the real man in black might have escaped.Ye Yuchen couldn't help but admire Aunt Liu for her thoughtfulness and careful preparations to get herself out of the way.

Half a month has passed since the temple fair, and the inside of Ye's mansion is still relatively calm, and everyone is preparing for Mrs. Ye's birthday one after another.

Ye Yuchen has prepared everything he wants to prepare, and spends the rest of the time reading.The doctor said that his current body is not suitable for school, but he hopes that he will catch up with Ye Xingchen one day, and become a scholar and even be able to take the imperial examination, so he is very serious about self-study.It's just that his body really can't stand hard study, and if he works a little harder, he will drink two more bowls of medicine, which makes his mother and daughter-in-law feel so bad.
