happy match

Ruixue and Zhixia waited outside for a long time before seeing Ye Qingning and Ye Qinglan walking out together.

The eyes of both of them were a little red, obviously they had just cried.However, the brows are bright and cheerful, obviously they have misunderstood Bing Shi's reconciliation as before.

Zhixia breathed a sigh of relief, and greeted her with a smile: "Miss, it's almost noon. Shouldn't it be time to go to Luomeiyuan?"

Ye Qingning shook her head: "I'm not going, go tell the small kitchen to cook something delicious. Ten sisters will also stay for lunch at noon today."

Ye Qinglan was taken aback: "But, I haven't told mother yet..."

"I'll let someone tell you later." Ye Qingning said disapprovingly, and then changed the topic again: "You are going back to see the face of the third aunt, and maybe you will be punished to starve yourself, so it's better to stay. .”

It turned out to be thinking about this.Ye Qinglan's heart warmed, she couldn't bear to refuse this kindness, she smiled and nodded in agreement.

In the Lotus Wind Courtyard, Xue Shi and Ye Yuanzhou brothers and sisters are sitting at the dining table.

"Why hasn't Third Sister come back yet?" Ye Qingfu complained impatiently, "I'm already hungry."

Xue's eyes flashed: "Don't wait for her, let's eat first."

Ye Yuanzhou hurriedly said: "Let's wait! Maybe, she will be back soon..." Before he finished speaking, he saw a little maid running in hastily, and when he took a closer look, it was Yinger, the maid beside Ye Qinglan.

Ying'er reported respectfully: "Ma'am, Miss Six left Miss to have lunch in the Huancui Pavilion, and I specially sent a servant to report to Madam."

Xue frowned.Ye Qingning had a good relationship with Ye Qinglan before, and she always protected that girl Ye Qinglan.But isn't it awkward these days?We couldn't even say a few words when we met.Why is it sticky again now?

Ye Yuanzhou was secretly happy in his heart, with Ye Qingning protecting him, even if he was not in the mansion from now on, Ye Qinglan's life would not be too difficult.

Seeing Ye Yuanzhou's happy face, Mrs. Xue could guess what was going on in his heart, and a nameless anger surged up in his heart, but it was inconvenient to do it in front of everyone.He forced himself to suppress the anger in his heart, and said lightly: "Okay, it's okay if Sister Lan doesn't come back. Let's eat!"

After finishing the meal, Mrs. Xue deliberately dismissed Ye Qingfu, but called Ye Yuanzhou into the room to talk: "...The Chunwei exam is over, and the Guozijian is about to start classes. You pack up, and you will return to the Guozijian tomorrow. .”

Ye Yuanzhou was startled, and replied without hesitation: "Mother, there are still five days before the Imperial College officially starts classes. It's useless for me to go back so early, it's better to stay in the mansion to study books..."

"Sister Lan's birthday is three days away." Xue interrupted Ye Yuanzhou with a half-smile, "Do you want to wait until her birthday is over before leaving?"

Ye Yuanzhou was dumbfounded by the words.

Xue's face turned cold: "Don't think you can fool me with your little thoughts. You go back and pack your luggage immediately, and go back to the Imperial College for me tomorrow."

Ye Yuanzhou was not willing to leave, he begged: "Mother, please allow me to stay in the mansion for a few more days before going back! I promise that there will be no mistakes in walking..."

"Guarantee? What kind of guarantee do you have?" Xue said with a sneer: "I just punished her for not eating a few meals, but you are fine. Get rid of the servants around you in a different way, and run to the kitchen to find food for her. You Isn't this slapping me in the face in front of the servants?"

Ye Yuanzhou didn't dare to tell the difference.I just kept begging in a low voice.But Mrs. Xue was so determined that she couldn't listen to a word: "Okay, don't say anything. It's settled! Go back to the Imperial College tomorrow. As long as you stay in the Imperial College with peace of mind, we will I won't make things too difficult for Sister Lan. If you still have any thoughts, then I will be rude to Sister Lan. She is 13 years old this year, and she is not too young. I am her aunt, so I should worry about her It's a marriage..." As a aunt.Picking a "consensual" marriage for a concubine is a breeze.

Ye Yuanzhou heard Xue's implication, and his handsome face turned pale.What Ye Qinglan said suddenly flashed in my mind.

If the eldest brother is really good for me.Stay away from me in the future, let me live a few days of clean life.I really can't thank you enough!

Yes, it was because of his mother that he made things difficult for her.It would be a good thing for her if he left...

Ye Yuanzhou's heart throbbed faintly, he gritted his teeth and said, "Mother, I will obey you and leave tomorrow. Hold your hand high, and don't always embarrass her in the future."

Hearing this, Mrs. Xue was furious, and slammed the table: "Where have you read the sage books for so many years? Is that how you talk to me?"

Ye Yuanzhou lowered his head: "I'm sorry, mother. The child is in a hurry and speaks without words. I hope mother will not take it to heart."

The more Mrs. Xue thought about it, the more annoyed she became, but she didn't want to hurt the relationship between mother and child too much, so she suppressed the anger in her heart and said lightly: "Okay, you go back and pack your clothes and luggage first. I will deal with the matter in the yard." Naturally, it will be considered."

Ye Yuanzhou didn't dare to talk any more, and retreated silently.

After Ye Yuanzhou's figure disappeared in front of his eyes, Xue's face suddenly became gloomy, with cold anger flashing in his eyes.This girl is simply a thorn in her flesh, and she can't feel at ease if she doesn't remove it...

After Ye Qinglan learned that Ye Yuanzhou was going back to the Imperial Academy, she was in a very happy mood.Ye Yuanzhou is like a ticking time bomb, no one can predict when and what he will do.The sooner you go, the better!

In the early morning of the next day, Ye Qinglan deliberately pretended to wake up late, avoiding seeing Ye Yuanzhou off.

Seeing Ye Qinglan being so sensible, Xue's anger finally dissipated a little.

After Ye Qinglan and Ye Qingning reconciled, they resumed their previous relationship.Seeing the two girls coming hand in hand, Mrs. Zheng had a smile in her eyes, but she pretended to be surprised: "Why did you two come here together? Isn't there something wrong with you?"

Ye Qingning remembered how angry she was before, she couldn't help but blushed, stomped her feet coquettishly and said: "Mother made fun of me!"

Mrs. Zheng hadn't seen her lively young daughter for a long time, so she was naturally happy.The two stayed for dinner that day.

After Xue found out, she was naturally unhappy.By doing this, Mrs. Zheng was clearly hinting to her not to trouble Ye Qinglan any more.She is a aunt, and she is really useless if she wants to punish the concubine and has to look at other people's faces.

But Mrs. Zheng is the eldest daughter-in-law, so needless to say, she has a strong natal background, and she will definitely be in charge of Changyuanbo's residence in the future.Such people must not be offended.I had no choice but to swallow this sulking breath, and try to make plans in the future...

The seventh day of March is coming soon.

According to the practice in the mansion, the children's birthday is not a big deal, and a family banquet is usually held in the courtyard.As for whether Chang Yuanbo and his wife will be present, that depends on their mood.

Mrs. Xue was very reluctant to celebrate Ye Qinglan's birthday, but with so many eyes watching her in the house, she couldn't be too casual so as not to lose her tongue.When I went to Chang He Tang to pay my respects in the morning, I smiled and mentioned this to Mrs. Jiang: "...Sister-in-law Lan's 13th birthday is today, and my daughter-in-law plans to let the kitchen cook some good dishes and set a table in the Hefeng Courtyard. "

Mrs. Jiang casually hummed: "You can handle this matter as you see fit." It was obvious that she had no plans to attend.

Mrs. Xue was secretly happy, so she heard Ye Qingning interject with a smile: "Grandmother, when Batangmei celebrated her birthday last year, you rewarded Batangmei with a pair of jade bracelets. I was very greedy when I saw it. Now it's my turn It's the tenth sister's birthday, what good things does grandma want to reward?"

Jiang: "..."

Ye Qinglan didn't expect that Ye Qingning would open her mouth to ask for a gift for her, and she felt a little embarrassed, and said with a quick smile: "Sixth sister is joking again. I'm not Jiji, but it's just an ordinary birthday, so I don't have the nerve to ask grandma for something."

It's embarrassing to say it, but Ye Qingning's words have already been spoken, if Jiang Shi didn't express at all, wouldn't it be too stingy?

In front of all the daughters-in-law, grandchildren and granddaughters-in-law, Jiang always had to save face, and immediately smiled: "Sister Lan's birthday, as a grandmother, of course I have to reward some good things. Xiangling, go and put the dressing Bring the pair of red gold bracelets on the mirror."

Xiang Ling took the order and went, and after a while, she came out with a pair of bracelets.Sure enough, they are full of color and heavy, and there are at least three taels of each.Although the workmanship is not particularly exquisite, such jewelry is the easiest to exchange for cash.

Ye Qinglan quickly smiled and thanked her.

After leaving the Changhe Hall, Ye Qinglan laughed softly: "Sixth sister, thank you very much today. If you hadn't opened your mouth, I wouldn't have gotten a bunch of red gold bracelets for nothing."

However, Ye Qingning looked dissatisfied, and muttered in a low voice: "Grandmother is really stingy. Last year, when my eighth cousin celebrated her birthday, the pair of jade bracelets that she gave her were very good. They are much more valuable than this red gold bracelet. This kind of ordinary and old-fashioned bracelet is not suitable for you to wear at all."

"It's good to have it." Ye Qinglan was very pleased, she pursed her lips and said with a smile: "It's better than nothing."

Ye Qingning smiled, but didn't say anything.

At noon, Ye Qingning and Cui Wan arrived at Hefengyuan together.Mrs. Xue knew that the two of them had a good relationship with Ye Qinglan, so she was not surprised by their arrival, so she greeted them into the dining room with a smile.

In front of Xue Shi, Ye Qingning winked at Zhixia with a smile.Zhixia immediately understood, smiled and presented the delicate wooden box in front of Ye Qinglan.

"Sister Shi, it's my little wish for you to celebrate your birthday." Ye Qingning said lightly, but a trace of complacency flashed in his eyes: "Open it and see if you like it."

Ye Qinglan took the box with a smile: "Sixth sister gave it, of course I like it." Opening the box while talking, she was dazzled when she saw the contents clearly.

It was a box of huge pearls.At a cursory glance, there are at least twenty or so.Each is crystal clear and round, exuding a soft but dazzling light.
