A sentence from the boy: Where did the Zhou family get the second lady from?Zhou Mei was dumbfounded, and didn't know what to say for a while?
The little servant also blurted out, and immediately reacted after finishing speaking: "Ah, Second Miss, the Second Miss in the palace? Oh, the little one is damned, please wait a moment, the young one, I will report to the master and wife!"

The servant was about to close the door, and Zhou Mei also realized that she was not a weak person in the first place.

This period of time in Ye's house has been aggrieved enough, but I didn't expect to be angry when I returned to my own home.

She slammed the door open, raised her head and yelled, "Who gave you the guts to tell Miss Ben to wait at the door? Hurry up and lead the way!"

The boy was still indulging in this fairy-like beauty before, but Zhou Mei snapped him back to his senses in an instant, and hurriedly stretched out his hand as a gesture of invitation.

This home was both unfamiliar and familiar to Zhou Mei, looking around, Zhou Mei's nose felt a little sour.

The servant led Zhou Mei and her two little girls to the courtyard where Zhou's mother was.

The gate of the courtyard was not closed, and no one was guarding it. The servant did not dare to go in, so he wanted to call for someone. Zhou Mei had already walked in.

Zhou's mother was scolding her mother-in-law in the yard for not being able to do things well, and there was a young woman about 20 years old standing beside her, who seemed to be a master by her appearance.

Zhou's mother suddenly saw Zhou Mei who was standing still, and she was stunned. Before she could react, she saw Zhou Mei's eyes were red, and then tears were dripping down.

Zhou's mother came to her senses and recognized her daughter. She immediately pushed away the mother-in-law in front of her, strode towards her daughter, and screamed, "My son, why didn't you know in advance?" You'll be back right away? If you send a letter to your family, your brother can pick you up!"

Seeing her mother so excited, Zhou Mei's faint unhappiness and strangeness disappeared instantly.

The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried, and the woman and mother-in-law behind them looked at each other in blank dismay.

The mother-in-law was Zhou's mother's companion, and recognized that she was the second young lady in the mansion, and whispered to the surprised young woman beside her: "Grandma, this is our second young lady, the one in the palace. "

Grandma Zhou was surprised: "Didn't she enter Ye's house to work? Why did she come back?"

She didn't have the nerve to say it about being a concubine, so she just kept it vague.

Seeing Zhou Mei followed by two little maids, holding the gift box tied together in both hands, she was overjoyed and said, "It seems that the little girl is doing well in Ye's house, and being a concubine makes my mother's family feel uncomfortable." Said, and brought so many gifts back."

The mother-in-law also echoed: "Yes, looking at the appearance of the second young lady, she will naturally be pleasing!"

The eldest grandma was a little jealous of the younger sister's appearance, and then thought, what's the use of singing well, why don't you become a concubine?
After thinking about it, Grandma Zhou walked over quickly, and took out her handkerchief and pressed the corners of her eyes, pretending to be crying with joy.

"Mother-in-law, it's a happy event for the second sister to come home, mother-in-law don't want to be sad. The second sister must be tired too, so let's go into the house, and the daughter-in-law will go and inform the father-in-law and husband to come back."

Zhou's mother let go of her daughter, wiped her tears, and said to the eldest daughter-in-law: "Call the second and second couple over, and inform the eldest aunt and grandma. Then you go to arrange the kitchen to clean up two tables of good food and drinks. It's a big happy event for the girl to go home, and we must celebrate it well."

The eldest grandma responded, and smiled at Zhou Mei: "Second sister, I am your sister-in-law. This is the first time our sister-in-law has met. I have long heard that the second sister is a fairy-like figure. I don't have a word for this." It's false. In this way, the second sister will go to rest first, and the elder sister-in-law will go to work first, and come to accompany the second sister later."

Zhou Mei saw that her sister-in-law was always looking at the gift box carried by the girl behind her, and she felt displeased with her sister-in-law who had shallow eyelids.

So, she just nodded lightly and said: "Sister-in-law, I'm staying at home for one night today, you can clean up a yard for me!"

Grandma Zhou was startled when she heard the words, then looked at her mother-in-law in embarrassment, waiting for her to arrange.

When Zhou's mother heard that her daughter was going home to sleep for the night, she hurriedly said to her daughter-in-law, "Hurry up and make arrangements, what are you doing here?"

Grandma Zhou hesitated and said: "But the house is already very crowded, where can we make room for a yard?"

Zhou Mei didn't wait for her mother to speak, and immediately snorted coldly: "I've been in the palace for a few years and brought money back to supplement the family, why? This family doesn't even have a place to stay now?"

After speaking, she turned around and made a gesture to leave, but Zhou's mother grabbed her arm.

Zhou's mother turned around and yelled at the eldest daughter-in-law: "Isn't there a small courtyard in the backyard, let someone clean it up and let the second girl live in it immediately."

Grandma Zhou was surprised: "Mother, this yard is next to the back door, and it is very small. It has been vacant since my aunt got married. It will cost a lot of money to clean it up?"

Zhou's mother was also distressed, but seeing Zhou Mei about to get angry, she gritted her teeth and said, "It doesn't matter how much money, the most important thing is that my daughter lives comfortably!"

Zhou Mei finally smiled, cast a glance at her sister-in-law and followed her mother away.

Grandma Zhou hated it secretly, but she was afraid that her mother-in-law would give all the good things to the second room, so she hurried to arrange things.

Zhou's family was not rich, and the house was not spacious, and it became even more crowded after the eldest and second child got married.

The small courtyard was very small, and it was specially separated from the backyard for the eldest lady to live in. After the eldest lady got married, it became vacant.

It will definitely cost a lot of money to arrange it in a short time, Grandma Zhou hurriedly opened the warehouse to pick up things.

Zhou's mother asked people to serve tea and cakes, and Zhou Mei also asked the two little maids to put the gift boxes in the house and then let all the servants go out.

Seeing that all the servants had gone out, Zhou Mei cuddled into her mother's arms, crying sadly, telling her how homesick she was and how difficult it was to be outside?
Zhou's mother stroked Zhou Mei's smooth hair with her hands, seeing that she was wearing everything on her body and on her head, and she couldn't agree with her daughter's words of suffering.

Zhou Mei cried for a while, and found that her mother was not as angry as she was, and slowly shed her tears and sat up straight.

Zhou's mother looked at this daughter carefully, she was really a big girl, especially the kind of demeanor raised in the palace was unmatched by ordinary young ladies.

"Meier, how are you doing in Ye's house? How is Ye Erye treating you?"

Although, Zhou's mother has decided that Zhou Mei must be doing well, otherwise how could she come home so glamorously?

When Zhou Mei heard this, she hurriedly said seriously: "Mother, my daughter came back to ask her to help her daughter. If my daughter wants to go home, can I ask my father to go to Ye's house to intercede and let me stay at home?"

Zhou's mother was shocked: "What nonsense are you talking about? You are the queen mother who gave it to Ye Erye. How could your father go and bring you back? Ye Erye is willing to let you go?"

"Mother, after all, the Empress Dowager never issued an edict. As long as the Ye family and I agree, the Empress Dowager wouldn't say anything?"

Zhou Mei's eyes filled with tears again: "Also, how could Second Master Ye be so reluctant? He only wishes for me to leave as soon as possible!"

Zhou's mother looked at the crying daughter in puzzlement, and her eyes drifted to the gift again. Is this an unwelcome look?

"He didn't even see me. My wife guarded us so tightly. Mother, I was wronged when I entered Ye's house, but if I still want to be rejected like this, my daughter might as well go home."

Zhou's mother obviously disagreed: "Mei'er, have you stayed in the palace for a long time, and you have forgotten that your father is just a ninth-rank official, and now your elder brother has managed to do something else, but he doesn't even have a rank?" Yes. Ye Erye is a fifth-rank official, so it is not considered wronged you. We are still thinking about waiting for you to gain a firm foothold in the Ye family so that you can take care of the family. Your second brother has nothing to do now!"

Zhou Mei blinked her beautiful eyes, and looked at her mother with disbelief: "Isn't Second Master Ye just a small fifth-rank military officer? What's so special about it?"

"Daughter, what is the fifth rank? Your father never reached the eighth rank in his whole life. Do you know how difficult it is to be halfway up?"

Zhou Mei stopped talking, mainly because she had been in the Empress Dowager's Palace, and all she saw were high-ranking wives.

And the masters in the palace seldom take official positions below the fifth rank seriously, which also affects Zhou Mei invisibly.
