Xie's house is quite far from Fucheng, and after walking for almost an hour in a carriage, a large area of ​​houses built on the hillside can be seen from a distance.

Yin Tao couldn't help but shrink her pupils. The Ye family has worked hard for four generations, and it is only the size of a village.

This is the real aristocratic family, hidden in the mountains and forests, but can influence the general trend of the world.

Back then, the emperor wanted to seek the throne, but there were very few supporters in the court. Princess Heyang thanked Xie's family for her brother to still marry far away. With the support of the Xie family, he sat on and secured the throne.

Princess Heyang is the current emperor's aunt, and also the aunt of Prince Shanjun, and Ye Xiuwen and Yin Tao can be considered her grandchildren, so it is unreasonable to live in Xie's house.

I don't know what kind of person this legendary Princess Heyang is, who is extremely strict with etiquette and rules.

After going through so many things, Yin Tao has also become more calm and tactful. Although she is worried in her heart, she doesn't show it on the surface. Even the dowry of the wife of the eldest son can't tell the depth, and she secretly thinks in her heart that she is someone.

The main residence of the Xie family is located in the very center, and there are no houses in the front and back. Of course, the main residence of the Xie family occupies a very large area, at least ten times larger than the Ye family villa.

After getting out of the carriage and entering the gate of the mansion, there was a green-glazed sedan chair with emerald mantles waiting for her. Mother Jian smiled and said, "Madam, please get on the sedan chair. There is still some distance between our house and the backyard. I am afraid that walking will exhaust Madam."

When returning home, she still has to sit in a sedan chair, which Yin Tao has never enjoyed, no, she never even enjoyed it in Kang Wang Mansion and Qing Wang Mansion before.

No matter how big the house in the capital is, it is limited. If it is not for ostentation or if you are not feeling well, you really don’t need to take a sedan chair.

Yin Tao smiled at Jian's mother, and said politely: "The Xie family is indeed the head of the family, and they are so considerate and thoughtful!"

Jane's mother just bent slightly to open the curtain and waited for Yin Tao to enter.

A sedan chair is more comfortable than a carriage and less bumpy.

The group of them went directly to the gate of Princess Heyang's courtyard, and only then did Yin Tao get off the sedan chair.

"Master Hou has another courtyard to live in. This is the residence of the princess. The wife will live in the side yard next to it for a while. It is also convenient for the princess to talk to the lady about interesting things in the capital."

Mother Jian pointed to another door on the left and explained, Yin Tao also nodded, so she asked Mother Jian to let her maid take her to put away the things she brought.

Afterwards, Yin Tao led Cailu to meet Princess Heyang.

The building of the hall is very large, and it can be seen that it is still regulated by the Princess Mansion. There is a large red gold plaque with three big characters on it: Rongxi Hall, and a row of small characters below. Yin Tao dare not look at it for a long time. the plaque?

Princess Heyang is a thin woman, 58 years old this year, but she looks more than 40 at most, dressed gracefully and luxuriously, sitting on the big red sandalwood carved chair motionless, looking at Yin Tao with a smile on her face, but there is nothing in her eyes. A smile.

There are rows of nanmu chairs on the left and right of the underground, full of female family members wearing gold and silver, and behind them are their own juniors.All of these people were as beautiful as flowers, and when they saw Mrs. Cheng Enhou coming in, they all looked over and looked at Yin Tao reservedly.

This is quite a controversial woman. She was born in the countryside and worked as a maid, but she earned tens of thousands of fortunes by herself. She became Mrs. Hou at a young age, and her sister married into the second young mistress of the Hou Mansion.

And the most talked about is her jealousy, she dared to send away all the women who were rewarded by the Empress Dowager to Cheng Enhou, and she has not been punished by the Empress Dowager.

Therefore, as soon as Yin Tao came in, she received countless looks of unknown meaning, either kind, curious, jealous, or disdainful!

Fortunately, Yin Tao often goes to the palace even now, so this bit of a fight is trivial.

She went to the middle and walked towards Princess Heyang, but Princess Heyang didn't make things difficult for her, she quickly asked him to get up, and asked her to sit in the first seat on the left.

This is to see her as very honorable, Yin Tao also presented the gift she brought, after some compliments, Yin Tao sat down, someone served tea, the tea soup was bright, the fragrance rushed into the nose, and the mouth was sweet .

Yin Tao put down the teacup with her usual expression, and looked at Princess Heyang with a smile.

Princess Heyang saw that she was neither humble nor overbearing, and her actions were not vulgar, but she had the demeanor of Mrs. Hou, so she felt a little appreciation in her heart.

Pointing to the first lady on the right, she introduced: "This is my eldest daughter-in-law. You can call her auntie. You can find her if you have anything to do. If she is not well received, you must also tell me. Come and punish her."

Yin Tao stood up and greeted the other party, knowing that the other party was being polite and she didn't want to make friends, so she said: "Hi, Madam!"

Mrs. Shizi's face is slightly round, she wears the Chaoyang Wufeng hairpin, and an oriental bead falls from the head of the hairpin, which matches her slightly rich face very well. They are a little more agile, I like it at first sight, you have lived here for a few days, you can ask me to arrange everything, if I can't arrange it, naturally there is mother-in-law?"

This Shizi's wife is an eloquent and extremely tactful master, Yin Tao also made a few jokes from Shanruo, and the atmosphere is quite harmonious.

Princess Heyang didn't say anything about Yin Tao's title, but said to another woman next to her: "This is my second daughter-in-law. She is the most free. Let her play with you if you have nothing to do. Our house still has some scenery. .”

This is Mrs. Xie Er's wife, with an oval face and a slightly pointed chin, she looks in her late thirties, although she is also smiling, but there is some melancholy in her eyes.

Yin Tao naturally knew what it was for, so she exchanged a few casual greetings and let it go.

Afterwards, Princess Heyang didn't introduce the rest of the people, so it probably wasn't worth her introducing herself.

But she took the hand of the beautiful girl standing behind her, and said to Yin Tao: "This is Xie Ziyan, my niece from the Xie family. The most dedicated."

Yin Tao smiled slightly at her, but didn't answer. So many wives and young ladies on both sides didn't introduce her, but she singled out a daughter from the clan to speak out. I don't know what she was trying to do.

But Princess Heyang said to Xie Ziyan: "Mrs. Cheng Enhou is the person most valued by the empress today. You must not be neglected. You can go and accompany madam!"

Yin Tao's heart skipped a beat, is she going to live with me?Is it surveillance or what purpose?
In fact, the first thing she thought of was Ye Xiuwen, but then she ruled out this idea, because her seniority was wrong, Princess Heyang was talking about her niece, Ye Xiuwen is a generation later than Xie Ziyan, so it is impossible for King Shanjun, then why? Woolen cloth?

Xie Ziyan stepped forward to salute Yin Tao. She has a light body, a voice like an oriole, and an appearance like a lotus. No matter her voice or appearance, she is the best choice, and her every frown and smile fully embodies the graceful and soft beauty of Jiangnan women.

To be honest, Yin Lan is not good enough in front of Xie Ziyan, no wonder she can be taught by Princess Heyang herself, how can such a girl be a treasure in the pond?
