Rebirth's Charm

Chapter 36

After that, Yu Shaoheng simply confessed to her: "He also told me about Feng's family affairs, and I still don't want to let it go, I want to find out the truth."

Ye Xizhao was puzzled, "Does he have a good relationship with Feng's family?"

"No, he just looks at too few people who are pleasing to the eye, and he usually dislikes An Guogong."

"Isn't this simply hatred for no reason?"

"Yes." Yu Shaoheng held her hand and smiled, "Aren't there women who hate you for no reason?"

Ye Xizhao had to admit, "Yes."

After chatting and returning to the Hou's mansion, the two of them went to see Mrs. Tai first, and told about Yu Shaohuan's divorce of his wife in detail.

Mrs. Tai knew that this act of cutting first and playing later must be Yu Shaoheng's idea. At first, she was a little ridiculous, but then she realized that he helped his wife handle these things, which was naturally caused by the difference between the two.That's the way things are, when you think about the benefits, you feel relieved.

After sighing a few words about Yu Shaohuan's bad luck, Mrs. Tai smiled at Ye Xizhao: "In the future, you will help me to pay attention to find someone with a dignified character, and find another good marriage for Shaohuan."

Ye Xi Zhaogong claimed it was.

Mrs. Tai said again: "Go back to the room first, you don't have to eat in the evening, you all have to come to my room to eat. As Xi Zhao said, eating depends on the heart, and the whole family should get together from time to time."

The husband and wife both laughed and said yes.

Back in the room, Yu Shaoheng mentioned Feng Huixuan's matter: "It's better to get rid of her as soon as possible. Although she didn't show up, she couldn't escape the responsibility. I will order Chang'an to go to the prime minister's mansion later, and give Du Liang some money so that he can bring her back as soon as possible. People go back to Shandong."

"Okay. I'll ask Hsinchu to inform my mother as well."

That's how things settled.

After that, Yu Shaoheng sat at the table next to the window in the dormitory and copied Ye Shuxuan's poetry collection at the desk.

Ye Xizhao didn't have the chance to read his handwriting carefully before, so out of curiosity, he stood beside him and watched.

The characters are like the person, the font is handsome, full of vigor, and the power penetrates the back of the paper.

Ye Xizhao leaned over the desk, blinking his eyes and said: "The writing is really good. I want to embroider a screen with calligraphy and painting, can you help me write the pattern?"

Yu Shaoheng didn't raise his head, "What are you doing embroidering that thing? It's hurting your mind and eyes. Go rest and be obedient."

Ye Xizhao retorted seriously: "Then you still read official documents and scrolls all day, won't it hurt your eyes?"

Yu Shaoheng chuckled, "If I don't do these things, how can I get a salary to support you?"

Ye Xizhao poked at his handsome face, "I have nothing to do? Embroidery is just a word every day, just to pass the time."

"It's better to learn how to live in the family. In a short time, mother will probably ask you to preside over Zhongfu." Yu Shaoheng could see that Mrs. Tai liked her more and more. Naturally, it was because she became more and more sensible and filial. .

When Ye Xizhao heard this, his head ached, and he kept some secrets from his heart: "I should not be that material. One day, what should I do if I can't run a family but can only prodigal?"

Yu Shaoheng laughed out loud, put down the pen in his hand, and patted her on the head lovingly, "Isn't there still a mother who can give you advice? I will help you when I have time, don't worry about it."

Ye Xizhao knew that the outside property of the Hou Mansion would be taken care of by him, which was more cumbersome than taking care of the inner house.He smiled and nodded, "Okay, I'll learn this from you in the future, don't laugh at me for being stupid."

"How dare you, you are unhappy, what can you do if you quit the job?"

Ye Xizhao laughed, and then continued talking about calligraphy and painting screens, grabbed his hand and said, "Just help me, can you?"

Yu Shaoheng held her hand backhand, "Please."

"I beg you."

"Just to say something?"

"Then what else?"

Yu Shaoheng approached her with a smile, "What do you think?"

Ye Xizhao looked at him helplessly, then moved close to his lips, kissed the corner of his lips, then bit his upper lip gently, and complained vaguely, "You're out of shape."

Yu Shaoheng raised his hand and pinched her waist, "Naughty."

"Will you help?" Ye Xizhao smiled and distanced himself from him, "If you don't help, I'll have to let my elder brother write a random picture."

Yu Shaoheng didn't want to see things related to Ye Xihan from time to time, so he had to compromise, "Help, I'll write it for you tomorrow."

Only then did Ye Xizhao turn around contentedly, and leaned on the bed to read a book.

After a while, Zhilan whispered outside the screen: "Madam, I have something to report."

Ye Xizhao responded casually, "Come in and talk."

Zhilan arrived at the bed and handed Ye Xizhao a note, "I just received it."

Ye Xizhao received it in his hand, opened it to look at it, and couldn't help turning cold.

The post was written by Tang Hongxiao's newlywed wife, Song Shi, who said that she had never seen Ye Xizhao since she got married, and wanted to visit her someday.

This behavior made Ye Xizhao have some guesses, but they all felt that it was impossible:
If it was Tang Hongxiao's idea, how could the Song family agree?
If it is said that Mrs. Song is here for friendship, it is an absolute fact that the two men are at odds, wouldn't she have thought of it?Isn't this asking for trouble?

Ye Xizhao ordered: "Tell me that I'm not free, and I've never had time to entertain guests, so you can find someone to pass on the message."

Zhilan said yes.

Afterwards, Ye Xizhao talked about Ruyi again: "When the third master comes back, ask him if he would like to let Ruyi stay in his room and continue to work. If he is not willing, I will find another place for Ruyi."

Zhilan agreed and withdrew quietly.

Ye Xizhao put the post into the book casually, put it aside, and closed his eyes to rest.

In the evening, she and Yu Shaoheng went to Mrs. Tai's room.Yu Shaoqian, his second wife, and Yu Shaohuan came later.

Ye Xizhao and the second wife set up a meal, and the whole family sat around to eat together.

Mrs. Tai and her two daughters-in-law gossip, while the three brothers exchange cups and cups.

No one mentioned Yu Shaohuan's divorce of his wife.The matter is already like this, and it is Yu Shaoheng's decision again, so there is no need to say anything at all, just take care of Yu Shaohuan a little more on weekdays.

Naturally, Yu Shaohuan would not talk about these things. Divorcing his wife gave him the feeling that he was finally relieved, and he no longer needed to worry about the people in the room causing troubles to Mrs. Tai and his elder brother and sister-in-law.He hoped that he could forget about Song Xinyao as soon as possible, and live a peaceful life in the future, and it would be great if he could get a good name in the exam.

Yu Shaohuan was just curious about one thing: "Brother and Xiao Xun have a good relationship?"

One sentence attracted Mrs. Tai to look at Yu Shaoheng, "Is it true?"

Yu Shaoheng acquiesced.

Mrs. Tai really convinced him, "I never knew, and you never told. When did you meet?"

Ye Xizhao didn't expect Mrs. Tai didn't know about it, so she laughed in surprise.

Yu Shaoheng smiled apologetically, "We've known each other for a few years."

Mrs. Tai shook her head dumbfoundedly, and asked again: "In the past, even we kept it a secret, what's going on today?"

"I didn't deliberately hide it from anyone, but I don't like you coming and going." Yu Shaoheng knew what Mrs. Tai was worried about, so he calmed down, "The emperor knew about this a long time ago, and my two positions have nothing to do with each other."

Mrs. Tai thought about it, this is the reason, and said with a smile: "Even if Xiao Xun wants to help you, it is useless. I don't know how many people impeach you on weekdays."

Yu Shaoheng smiled back, "That's true."

After finishing their meal, they went back to the room. Since Yu Shaoheng didn't sleep much last night, the two of them took a bath separately and prepared to rest early.

When Ye Xizhao came back, Yu Shaoheng was lying on the bed, holding the post she received in the afternoon.

She quietly went inside and lay down on her side. Seeing that he was still holding the post thoughtfully, she asked with a smile, "Is this post so beautiful?"

Only then did Yu Shaoheng throw the post on the small bedside cabinet, "I was wondering what this person was up to."

Ye Xizhao said truthfully, "I can't figure it out either."

"If Tang Hongxiao instructed her to approach you, it would be really ridiculous."

Ye Xizhao naturally agreed, and then said: "What do you want to do? I have already declined, and it's not like you haven't heard."

"I have to think about it..."

Before Yu Shaoheng finished speaking, Xia He reported outside the door: "Master Hou, madam, Mrs. Tai has something urgent to ask."

Both of them had serious expressions, they hurriedly got up and dressed neatly, and hurried to Mrs. Tai's room.

Mrs. Tai was full of sorrow, and handed a letter to the two of them, saying: "I just received it. Shaoyun is such a worry-free thing! Sigh... you can take a look."

After the two watched it, Yu Shaoheng frowned, and Ye Xizhao sighed lightly.

In Yu Shaoyun's letter, it was said that some time ago, the master said that she had finished her studies and could return to Beijing.She played all the way to the capital, and when she passed through Zhuojun, she was too lazy to go back to the capital and wanted to live there for a while.

Mrs. Tai stroked her forehead and said: "A girl's family, no one to take care of her, but wandering outside on her own initiative, what if something happens?"

Yu Shaoheng made a decisive decision, "Don't worry, mother, I'll go find her right away. Zhuo County is not far from the capital, so I can find her in a day or two."

Mrs. Tai was really anxious, so she nodded in agreement.

Ye Xizhao's eyes flickered slightly, and he suggested: "Master Hou might as well go to the Prime Minister's Mansion, my elder brother has a lot of acquaintances in Zhuo County, if you let him accompany you, you should be able to get twice the result with half the effort."

Yu Shaoheng nodded, "Alright, I'll go to the Prime Minister's Mansion and ask if he's free."

"Master Hou took Zhilan and asked her to explain the matter clearly. My concubine brother will definitely help with all his strength." Ye Xizhao asked Mrs. Tai again, "Madam Tai, do you think this is good?"

Mrs. Tai nodded, "Alright. Go ahead."

The two went back to the room again, Yu Shaoheng ordered Chang'an to gather some people, and Ye Xizhao told Zhilan the ins and outs in detail.Not long after, the preparations stopped, Yu Shaoheng said: "I will come back when I find someone, and spend more time with my bridesmaid tomorrow."

"I know, don't worry."

Ye Xizhao sent him out, watched him stride away, and thought to himself what kind of fate he was, and there was no leisure time.Then, she went to Mrs. Tai's room again to appease the old man's emotions, and didn't return to the room until the second watch.

Zhilan had already returned, saying that Ye Xihan had fully agreed, and immediately rushed to Zhuojun with Yu Shaoheng.

Only then did Ye Xizhao rest in peace.Lying on the bed, before falling asleep, Yu Shaoyun's beautiful face and detached personality appeared in his mind.

In the first year of their marriage, even though she and Yu Shaoyun were sisters-in-law, they didn't even have any friendship at all.Yu Shaoyun is afraid of Yu Shaoheng, but also extremely dependent and respectful. She is very dissatisfied with her always cold face, and complains for Yu Shaoheng.

When the two women met, they didn't even bother to speak.At that time, Ye Xizhao felt that everyone was dispensable, and she turned a blind eye to anyone's attitude towards her.Every time Yu Shaoyun saw Ye Xizhao, he always curled his lips, turned around and left with a pretty face.
