Rebirth's Charm

Chapter 123

The third lady frowned angrily, "I was almost driven mad by that little hoof, so I didn't bother to ask those questions."

"Your servant has written it down." Zhang's mother turned and went out.

The third lady looked at the bright lights in the room, and then thought about Yu Shaohuan's words before leaving, her brows relaxed a little.I feel better at last.

On the second day, the third lady went to look for Ye Xizhao refreshed, sat down and said with a smile: "I'm looking for my sister-in-law, that's the same thing, it's not right for Ding Xiang."

Ye Xizhao had already guessed it, and said with a smile: "It's not a good idea to always be so sick. It would be bad if it hurts the third sibling and the third master." The purpose was to test how the third wife would deal with it. clove.

The third lady smiled and said: "Yes, I am also having a headache because of this matter. If it is still like this in a few days, I want to send her to my dowry house to recuperate for a while. Sister-in-law, do you think it is okay?"

Ye Xizhao naturally wouldn't object, and he didn't want people to be killed in the third room, so he said with a smile: "This is a matter in your room, just handle it as you like."

The third lady spoke with a smile.

Mrs. Tai also listened to gossip about the third room.In the afternoon of this day, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law talked about it while watching sister Xin play.

Mrs. Tai said: "The young couple are still angry?"

Ye Xizhao could only vaguely say: "Probably so, I don't know too well."

Mrs. Tai sighed, "How can we go on like this? It's not easy to be in a bad mood as soon as you get home. Let's look at it in a few days. If the two of you continue to wrestle, I'll beat them one by one."

Ye Xizhao nodded with a smile, "What Mother said is, it's better to be kind."

Entering February, the weather gets warmer day by day.On a sunny day in the afternoon, Yu Shaoheng and Ye Xizhao took Sister Xin to the back garden to see the flowers that were blooming in this season.

Ye Xizhao still had the matter of Ye Xilang in his heart, and had been waiting for news from the prime minister's mansion, but he never got it.

What went wrong again?
There are too many twists and turns in the affairs of the inner house, and they change every day.Ye Xizhao understood this, and if he knew that he would go to the prime minister's mansion again, he could only ask his father.

But Ye Shuxuan is very busy on weekdays, especially these days.Because of the war, there are too many things that need him to assist the emperor to deal with, no matter the court or the place.Ye Xizhao wanted to see him, so he had to agree a time in advance.

After the person who sent the message came back, he said that Master Xiang asked her to go tomorrow afternoon, and he would set aside some time.

Thus, on the second day, Ye Xizhao informed Mrs. Tai.Mrs. Tai smiled and said: "You just go. Let Miss Xin stay at home this time? She doesn't go to bed on time in the afternoon, so as not to lose her temper on the way."

Ye Xizhao readily agreed.

When she was on the way, Ye Shuxuan and Meng Shi were arguing fiercely.

Ye Shuxuan looked at Meng Shi coldly: "Before you thought you had come to your senses and let me arrange Xi Lang's marriage. What's going on now? Why don't you agree with what I say?"

Meng's face was sullen, and her tone was not kind: "Are you still embarrassed to ask? How much money will it cost me to marry those young ladies you keep talking about? How much ostentation will I have to put on? But these things are also for the eldest daughter-in-law. Zhang Luo, can she not be angry when she sees it? Xi Han is the same, no matter what, he still remembers what it was like to marry a wife, right? Compared with Xi Lang, does he have a good face?"

"A woman's opinion!" Ye Shuxuan scolded, "Don't you know what happened to him at that time? He married a wife in a hurry. You watched him drink heavily every day, and you made it up. How did you tell me at that time? What did you say? You boasted this eldest daughter-in-law into a flower, and now? If I knew that the eldest daughter-in-law who married me now interfered in Xi Lang's marriage, who would agree?! You are like this, and so is my daughter-in-law!"

"She presides over Zhongfu, can these things still be hidden from her?" Meng's voice was a little higher, and her tone became more aggressive, "After all, don't you just think how good Xi Lang is now, and you want to give him all the attention?" Do you want to make a big fuss about getting married?"

"You're really right!" Ye Shuxuan said, "I'm satisfied no matter what I think, he's so much better than Xi Han! If your son goes out to work hard at a young age, he's afraid he'll be miserable all his life. It's only in the past two years that he has made a fortune!"

Meng Shi was almost so angry that she shed tears.

Ye Shuxuan also knew that saying such words was no less than giving her a slap, sighed, and said earnestly: "What did you do in the past few years, which made me almost hate Xi Lang, and now I won't mention it. Lang is promising, it’s good that his future has not been delayed until now. But you have to think about it for me, I only have two sons. I used to spoil my eldest son and ignore my second son. The marriage of the son is also perfunctory? Besides, he has an official position now, and marrying a wife is also related to the entire Xiangfu—I don’t agree with those people you mentioned, is it just because of the poor family background? Do you know what kind of You can't get married at all? I have my own considerations, why do you have to stick to your own opinion?"

Meng Shi was speechless because the beginning of Ye Shuxuan's words made her speechless.

Ye Shuxuan's tone was slightly aggravated: "Xi Lang's marriage, you have been doing this or that, you always have your own concerns, but you can't bully others too much! Xi Lang is not a child anymore, why doesn't he understand in his heart? Officials at the fourth rank will not be able to see clearly what you are thinking in your heart? His biological mother, you have not taken care of him any more in these years; Is the daughter-in-law also planning to step on her feet? What has he owed you? Can he bear you for a while, can he bear you forever? Don't forget, after all, you did the wrong thing first. The real wise and magnanimous mistress , it is right to plan for the son-in-law, but you shouldn't wrong the son-in-law like this. If it gets out, I'm afraid people will laugh it off!"

Meng sneered, "Speaking of which, it's all my fault? Now you will blame me, why did you ignore me in the early years? You have no responsibility at all? Xihan was once ineffective, so you have no responsibility at all?"

"Of course I was wrong. I have been trying my best to discipline him after I realized my mistake. Now I want you to have a bowl of water and I am still correcting my mistakes!" Ye Shuxuan looked at Meng Shi and sneered, "Why can't you Look at Mrs. Yongping Hou's Mansion? She also has two concubines under her knees. She has been taking good care of her since the death of the old Marquis, and now they are all talents. If Mrs. Hou's Mansion is like you, those two concubines would have died long ago Nothing left!"

"You!" Meng Shi was furious, "I am this kind of person in your eyes?! I am clearly worthless!"

Ye Shuxuan raised his eyebrows lightly, "You have the skills to be afraid of Xi Lang, why not teach Xi Han to continue to work hard." After saying this, he waved his hand and rejected his own words, "Forget it, if you can teach him, he will It's not like it has been abandoned for so many years. Right now, you'd better live a quiet life, no matter what, you can still get a good name on the surface."

Meng was trembling with anger, "After all these years, you finally spoke your mind. It's hard for you to endure for so many years! I do have shortcomings, but what about you? What did you do in the early years? ? Didn’t you spend all your efforts on those disciples? You taught a champion, and Tan Hualang is also your favorite student, why don’t you see that you have also trained Xi Han to become a talent?”

"I teach in the front, what's the use of you being arrogant and indulgent in the backyard?!"

As the husband and wife talked, they forgot their original intentions and brought up old accounts.

It was at this time that Ye Xizhao went outside the door, entered the door, saw his parents with livid faces, and immediately wanted to turn around and leave.In such a state of mind, nothing will come to fruition.

Ye Shuxuan ordered someone to change to a cup of hot tea, and when Ye Xizhao was seated, he had already calmed down, and said in a harmonious voice: "You came just in time. Please help me with Xihan's marriage. If you think the family is good, go Ask Shao Heng if it is appropriate to be married to the Prime Minister's mansion. He said it can be done."

Meng almost fainted from anger, "Xi Zhao is Xi Lang's younger sister! Are you ashamed to let her be the one? Then what are I and the eldest daughter-in-law? If it spreads out, I won't be afraid of people laughing!"

"Do you still know that she is Xi Lang's sister?!" Ye Shuxuan's anger was ignited by this sentence again, "Whether Xi Lang's brother or sister is married and has children, he is still alone. , I would like to ask you, whose fault is this! When he was at the border, couldn't you arrange a marriage for him? Did he never return to Beijing to visit relatives? Is Lang getting married? I want to count on you, but I'm afraid that you won't be able to get married if you drag Xi Lang to his thirties!"

Ye Xizhao was upset when he heard that, and said with a wry smile, "Stop arguing. What's going on? Can't you just talk calmly?"

Meng Shi and Ye Shuxuan stopped talking, turned their faces to look elsewhere, and remained silent for a long time.

Both of them were present, and they were both angry. If Ye Xizhao talked to anyone, he would offend the other person if he didn't keep up.But it's not okay to leave now, I'm afraid that after leaving, the two of them will continue to quarrel and make each other angry.

Just when she was feeling unbearable, the servant girl came in and said, "Master Hou is here."

Meng Shi and Ye Shuxuan looked at Ye Xizhao at the same time.

Ye Xizhao was also a little surprised, not knowing why he came here.

No matter what happened to Meng Shi and Ye Shuxuan, they were too embarrassed to let Yu Shaoheng see the joke, so they suppressed their anger and forced a smile on their faces.Therefore, when Yu Shaoheng entered the door, the atmosphere had already eased.

Ye Xizhao took the tea from the maidservant, put it in Yu Shaoheng's hand, and asked, "Why is Lord Hou here?"

Yu Shaoheng smiled, "Come and talk to father-in-law."

Ye Xizhao turned sideways, turned his back to Meng Shi and Ye Shuxuan, winked, and mouthed to him: "We had a fight."

Yu Shaoheng raised his eyebrows lightly, but said silently, "Marriage?"

Ye Xizhao nodded slightly.

Yu Shaoheng just felt that he came at the wrong time.
