Chapter 11
The two maids left the bedroom, Meng Tao pulled Hong Luo and asked, "What bad things have you done?"

Hong Luo glared at her, "Miss doesn't pursue me anymore, why do you ask, really."

"Eh? You!" Mengtao's eyeballs turned upside down, "I'm so yin and yang all day long. I can't stand it."

Qin Yilan's voice suddenly came from beside him, "Cough."

Meng Tao hastily turned around and bowed her knees, "Master Hou."

Qin Yilan lowered her head and asked softly, "How long has that Hongluo girl been with your lady?"

"Hongluo has been with Missy since she was a child. I heard that Hongluo's mother is Missy's wet nurse. When she was assassinated, the wet nurse and Missy's mother were in trouble together. Missy also takes special care of Hongluo. I see her on weekdays. Never punish her too much for making mistakes."

Qin Yilan nodded silently, "Understood, you go down."

"Yes."

Pushing the door open and entering the room, Yao Yao heard a voice and walked out of the inner room, "Master Hou."

"Hmm. What are you doing?"

"Learning inscriptions."

Qin Yilan sighed, "Didn't I tell you not to learn, it's just for fun, don't take it too seriously. This hurts your hands."

"Yes."

"I'll be back at the door three times tomorrow. I'll prepare for what my father-in-law likes."

Yao Yao hurriedly asked, "Will my third sister come home?"

Qin Yilan shook his head, "There is no such thing as returning home when you marry an imperial relative, at most you can return a gift. Whether your third sister can go back depends on the second prince's mood."

Yao Yao frowned in an instant, "Third sister is the most loved by father, married as a wife, but can't come back easily, father will definitely be very sad."

Qin Yilan hugged her and murmured in a low voice, "So I'll accompany you back and help your two younger sisters to be filial."

Yao Yao's eyes moved slightly, "Thank you, Lord Hou, for your understanding."

After all, Qin Yilan is also a relative of the emperor, and no one can blame him if he doesn't come back.But he still kept the custom of folk marriage.

On the day of returning home, Yao Yao got out of the carriage, looked left and right, and waited for the gifts on the carriage to be unloaded one by one. She saw a few gift cars coming from a distance, and she knew at a glance that her two younger sisters didn't come back. Send gifts home.

When Yao Wenwen heard the news, he rushed out to meet Qin Yilan, and said to Qin Yilan, "My son-in-law."

"Father-in-law."

Yao Wenwen stroked his beard with a smile and said, "It's enough to be polite, why do you have to go all the way?"

"The son-in-law is afraid that his father-in-law will marry three daughters at once, and the house will be deserted and lonely, so he specially brought Yao'er back to visit you. Take time to have a drink or two with your father-in-law."

"Okay! Okay! Then don't stand outside the house, please come inside."

"Ah."

After returning home, Yao Yao didn't chat with her father. Qin Yilan followed her father, drinking tea and playing chess, enjoying himself.

Yao Yao is going to pay her respects to Yao Yu's mother.

Yao Yu's mother and her mother are from the same ancestor, they are offshoots of her mother's Zhao family, but because a prodigal son was born in the family, after eating, drinking, whoring and gambling ruined all the family property, Yao Yu's mother was sent to the Zhao family to be her Mother's dowry maid.

Within two years of marrying into Yao's family, Yao Yu's mother accepted Yao Wenwen as a concubine.

Yao Yao was not very clear about the events back then, she only knew that in the same year when Aunt Zhao Xiang married her father, Mrs. Li also entered the Yao Mansion with her stomach full.

As soon as Yao Yao arrived at the gate of the small garden, she saw Zhao Xiang's younger brother Zhao Zhong, carrying a heavy package in his arms, leaving cheerfully.

This prodigal son still hasn't changed his habit until now, and he comes to Zhao Xiang's place every now and then to beg for silver taels to take back and spend.This was also the case when my aunt was working as a maid in her natal family, but at that time her mother was still in charge, and the prodigal son did not dare to speak indiscriminately.

In fact, her mother has a bad temper, and when she sees the prodigal son get angry, she will ask someone to beat him.

Now that her mother is gone, Zhao Xiang has become her father's concubine again. Although she is very much loved by her father, his father dare not entrust her to take care of the family property, so Zhao Xiang has no real power in Yao's mansion, and the monthly payment is not enough. It's so pitiful that she is the only one who asks for money on weekdays to ask her for help.

Today is the homecoming ceremony, Zhao Zhongxin knows that his sister is rich in her pocket, so she must be sitting here waiting early in the morning, right?

After entering the yard, Yao Yao heard Zhao Xiang's sobbing, walked over and called, "Auntie?"

"Yao'er, won't my Yu'er come back today?"

"seems like it."

Wiping away tears, Zhao Xiang hesitated, "I don't know if she is doing well in the palace. Did she get bullied?"

"How come, the second prince will not treat her badly."

After all, the second prince is still a student of his father.Even if the second prince is dissatisfied with her third sister, his life is absolutely safe.

Both the crown prince and the second prince were students of his father, but unfortunately Qin Yilan was not. He was sent to study outside the mountains since he was a child, and he didn't know which school he went to. If he hadn't been sent out, he probably also studied under her father.

Yao Yao and Zhao Xiang chatted for a while, and the servant outside the door announced, "Third Madam, your brother is back."

Zhao Xiang's face turned red, as if he had seen a ghost, "Why are you back again?"

"I don't know."

Before the boy finished speaking, he heard Zhao Zhong push him, "Get out of the way."

Zhao Zhong entered the room, grinning loudly, "Sister."

A middle-aged uncle in his 40s, with a thin body, walks with a strong wind, mixed with the smell of rouge from a secular woman, "Sister, give me another bag. I met the strong man when I went out just now." , I couldn't hide it, so I returned all the money to him, after all, I owed him more than a year. Oh, Miss Yao is here too?"

Yao Yao covered her mouth with a handkerchief, she really didn't like the way this uncle looked at her.

Zhao Zhong sucked his saliva at Yao Yao, then turned around and said, "Sister, hurry up, little brother got up early in the morning and hasn't eaten yet!"

As for her aunt's family background, she didn't want to get involved too much, so she watched Zhao Xiang enter the house aggrieved, and took out a small bag of silver and stuffed it in, "Take the money and leave quickly."

"Hey, good class!"

Yao Yao looked at Zhao Zhong's wretched back, and sighed softly, "Why do you bother to embarrass yourself like this? Why don't you just say that you don't have money?"

Zhao Xiang bowed his head and said, "If I don't give it to him, he will make a fuss, as ugly as he wants, I don't want the master to look down on me."

look down?
Just because of her father's attention, she actually begs for everything to this day.

After chatting for a few more words, Meng Tao hurried over and shouted, "Miss, Master Hou has gone to your boudoir to look for you."

"My, my boudoir?" Yao Yao hurriedly got up, her face flushed, "Don't bother me, Auntie. I still have to go ahead."

"Ah... oh oh."

Yao Yao hastily picked up the hem of her skirt and chased after her in her small courtyard. Panting, she ran outside the door and saw Qin Yilan had already pushed open the door of her room and straddled her legs into the room.

"Lord Hou——Lord Hou, Lord Hou!"

Qin Yilan paused and turned around, "Huh?"

Yao Yao hurriedly chased after him, stopped him, and blocked her hut and yelled, "Master Hou is sitting well in the living room, why did you come to my boudoir?"

"Wouldn't it be nice to come and see the place where you lived for half your life?"

What to look at, you can't see it.

Yao Yao almost blurted out.
