Chapter 234: Retreat When the Time of Children Arrives
finally lifted her hand from the water. 。She didn't want her wrist to be seen either, because she had a silver bell there, given to her by the most honorable Emperor on this continent. 。Ye Wen still...He frowned and walked forward: "Little sister, why don't you go sit over by your aunt" Ye Lianmian glared at him, clearly unhappy. "This is all our family's place, how can I not sit here Who decided that this side must be yours Why don't Second Brother sit on the other side After all, I see that you are rather close with them, and probably don't want to sit over here..." 。Well then, you be the good guy and I'll be the bad guy. I'll start this one off, how about we switch places 。" Night Fei Zhou looked at her for a while, then looked back at the night view Sheng and Xiao's. " 。Just then, the city lights were magnificent. Xi Chun was squeezed onto a chair with no words. Xiao Shi lowered her eyes slightly, obviously unwilling to respond or deal with this matter. 。He then fell silent, and quietly sat down beside Ye Feiyu. 。At this time, Yun Chen finished a plate of snacks and said to Mu Shi, "Madam, you must be tired! It's past Shen hour already. Go back to rest." Then to Ye Qingmei and Ye Feiyu, "Young Master and elder sister should also go to rest, there is no need to sit here 。" Before the Big Room's family could even speak, Ye Lianmiao stood up abruptly and didn't sit in the seat she had snatched from Ye Fei Zhou. She went straight to Mu Shi's side and said, "Yes, let's go back first!" Yun Chen glanced at her and pointed across the table, "Second Sister, since you have already sat on the other side, don't come over here to take advantage. You are not the Master's biological daughter, so why should all the good things be yours alone!" Lian Shi continued, "Actually, it doesn't matter where you sit, you can't escape anyway..." 。“Why can’t I leave” Ye Lianmian was flustered, “You all let Ye Feiyu and Ye Qingmei leave, I am also Mu Qianqiu’s child, why don’t you let me leave” Lian Shi let out a cold snort, “Are you also the mistress’s child Haven’t heard of any child who dares to call their mother by her surname! Bei Qi values filial piety, the current emperor respects both his stepmother and biological mother, and he has always been respectful towards the two empresses.” 。If any child dares to be so disrespectful to their mother, they will surely be punished. 。"So, have you figured out which family's child you truly are" Night Lian was startled by the question, stammering and unable to speak. Even under Yun Chen's sharp gaze, she retreated back to the Second House's side. 。The result was that Ye Chulian uttered in a timid voice, "That's Er Gege's spot." 。“
Ye Lianmian was so angry that she almost rushed over to tear off Ye Chu's mouth. In an instant, she scared Ye Chu into tears, crying and dodging: "Second Sister is too much. She occupied Second Brother's position, and now she wants to hit me. Is it that you, Second Aunt, don't care about our Second House, whether they are illegitimate daughters or legitimate sons Are you slapping us in the face or your brother-in-law and concubine"
As soon as these words came out, Xiao's face couldn't hang anymore. "Second Miss, don't be too excessive. We are sitting here well and haven't provoked you, why do you beat and scold our children"
Xiao's words made Ye Lianmian dare not speak again because she knew that this family would be run by her second aunt in the future. If she offended her second aunt, her position in this family would become even more awkward.>>> 。Finally, no one was arguing anymore. Although Mu Shi felt that everyone else was sitting there, it wasn't very good for them to leave alone. 。But she was also really worried about Ye Wen, and wanted to go back and see him. 。After some thought, I said to Ye Feiyu and Ye Qingmei: "You two stay here to chat with the two elders. I'll go see Yan'er." 。People watched the Mu family leave, and the second family envied them greatly. 。Mu departed, and they still had to endure this. Finally, as it was just getting dark, the old matriarch fell asleep as she wished. 。He might also have gotten tired, and fell asleep immediately, snoring loudly. 。Therefore, Xiao Shi once again envied this old woman. 。 She was able to fall asleep at such a time, what a big heart she had! Why couldn't she sleep She also wanted to sleep because if she slept, she wouldn't have to worry about these messes, and she wouldn't have to keep looking at Yun Chen and Lian, nor would she have to listen to their ins and outs of yin and yang. 。But she couldn't sleep, just this scene, anyone with a heart wouldn't be able to sleep, right She turned her head to look at her own husband, hehe, he was holding Xi Chun and closing his eyes to rest! Xi Chun slept soundly like the old lady, just wondering if she was really asleep or just wanted to snuggle in her husband's arms. 。She was so angry her liver hurt! To be fair, Old Madam Liu was honest. She went and tried to untangle it twice, then sat there completely still. 。But she also resented Lady Liu, because Lady Liu had a daughter named Ye Chu Lian by her side. 。Over the past two years, Ye Chulian has truly blossomed into a stunning beauty. While she used to resemble the Fifth Miss of the Ye family, sharing some features with the Third Miss, she lacked the latter's radiant charm and alluring grace. Whenever the Third Miss appeared, the Fifth Miss would instantly be overshadowed in comparison. 。But now, looking at her, Ye Chu Lian and her red makeup didn't seem much alike. Instead, she looked a bit like Ye Wenyan. 。Even though she was unwilling, she had to admit that Ye Chu Lian was now much more beautiful than Ye Hongzhuang. 。Xiao sighed. A few days ago, she had heard about the Li family's affairs and knew that the Li family intended to marry their daughter to the current emperor. They had already begun preparing to showcase their daughter so that she could stand out in the selection in two years. To this end, they even went so far as to have a falling out with Empress Dowager Li. 。If she could have one more daughter, she would have one more path to choose from. 。One stayed by the side of the Sixth Prince, and one was carefully cultivated to be sent into the palace in the future. 。One chooses King Su, the other chooses Emperor. Both sides are occupied, this way there's absolute safety. 。Unfortunately, she didn't have the luck to have many children. Not only did she not have many daughters, but her son was also useless. 。Such a situation really made her embarrassed, to the point where she was too ashamed to go after Ye Jianing and spoil Xi Chun's moment. 。Even if the old mistress didn't, she had no standing to stop her any longer. Even if her mother, the old mistress of Ningguo Mansion, came, it would be embarrassing to bring this up. 。She glanced at Ye Fei Zhou again, her anger flared up once more, so angry that she simply closed her eyes. 。To raise such a son, what kind of sin has he committed Time just wore on like this, until the hour of midnight, when Yunchen ordered the servants of the night mansion to begin striking the bell. 。 More than one knock gave people hope, so the old lady didn't sleep either, Xichun was also spirited, even Ye Jingsheng opened his eyes and waited for the hour of the child. 。Finally, it's time. 。All the members of the Ye family looked at Yun Chen and Lian Shi in unison. 。These two were quite decisive. As soon as the chime of midnight rang, they immediately stood up, said nothing and turned to leave, with those in purple robes from the Purple Court Palace following suit. 。A set of movements, flowing like water. Before the Ye family could react, he had already ordered someone to open the gate and gotten into the palanquin waiting at the entrance. 。The whole family is about to collapse. What on earth is going on They sat there from morning till late at night, and in the end, no one still understood what those two people were trying to do. 。But no matter what the reason, they finally left, and they could finally let out a sigh of relief. 。The night scene was already hot, he had no more energy to say another word, so he simply took Xichun and left. 。Xiao's voice called out from behind him, but he didn't respond. Instead, Xichun turned back and said, "Please, Madam Er, have some understanding of your husband. Today, someone has humiliated him, and he is angry in his heart. Don't pick on him anymore; it hasn't been easy for him." 。"
A scolding, causing Xiao's face to turn green with anger. Yet Ye Jian Sheng added fuel to the fire: “If you want to kill me, just say so! A head mistress doesn't even understand basic decorum, I truly wonder how the Xiao family raised their daughter! Sending any kind of daughter to my General's mansion is like not respecting my father at all!” With that, she took Xi Chun and left. " 。Xiao shi pressed her chest, constantly reminding herself not to get angry, not to get angry at all. It was Yun Chen and Lian Shi who had made the man angry, it wasn't that he was truly angry with her, nor was it that he was truly going against the Xiao family... 。The old madam sat at the head, watching Xiao finally suppress her anger. She couldn't help but nod in approval. 。 "Yes, that's what a true mistress of the house looks like." 。Seeing Night View Sheng and Xi Chun leave, Liu Shi and Ye Chu Lian also stood up. They first bowed to the old madam, then to Xiao Shi, and said, "Please, Old Madam and Second Mistress, rest early." 。Then he also left. 。As for the Big House family, they didn't need to stay. Before Yun Chen and Lian Shi left, Ye Feiyu had already pulled Ye Qingmei away with her. 。They escorted the person all the way to their doorstep and onto the palanquin. The siblings then went straight back to Xiyuan, without even acknowledging those in the Nuxing Hall. 。Ye Fei's boat didn't stay long either. When someone left, he silently followed behind them. No one knew if he returned to his own courtyard or went somewhere else. 。"To be honest, Ye Chulian looked at him a few more times, only feeling that this second brother was getting thinner and thinner, so thin that he looked gaunt. She even suspected that if he kept losing weight like this, he would die"
There was only Ye Lianmiao left in the room. Xiao shi glanced at her and said coldly, "Why doesn't the second young lady leave yet"
Ye Lianmiao hesitated for a moment before saying, “I want to wait for grandmother…" 。Grandma, I would like to rest at your place tonight. 。“ The old lady let out a snort, clearly displeased. "I'm currently staying at your second aunt's place, borrowing accommodation. The courtyard is temporary and I don't even have two rooms. There simply isn't space for you." 。 。"They're not!" Ye Lianmian became flustered, "I grew up with my grandmother since I was little. They didn't want me back then, how could they possibly want me now that I'm grown Grandma, don't you like me anymore You can't dislike me! In this household, I have no one else but you! Please, Grandma, don't abandon me. Just let me stay by your side, in case we encounter another earth-shaking event, I can protect you too! Isn't that reasonable, Grandma"Xiao Shi was truly impressed by this old lady. To brainwash a child to this extent, making their own parents seem like enemies, required incredible skill. If she had this ability, she could easily manipulate Ye Chu Lian the same way. Wouldn't that solve her problem of not having a daughter Sadly, it was too late. The second young lady had been taken away since infancy. By now, Ye Chu Lian was old enough to have her own thoughts and wouldn't be swayed by her anymore. 。Xiao was thinking wildly, but the old madam had already called a midwife to take Yeliang back to the west courtyard. This showed she had made up her mind not to want this granddaughter anymore. 。Xiao shi saw it and was moved. The old madam raised the second daughter in a way that made her estranged from the first family, and now she didn't want to manage her anymore. If she took over, what then The second daughter clearly also wanted to curry favor with her side. If she pulled the person over, wouldn't it make up for the lack of daughters around her She calculated these things in her heart and wanted to rush back to her room to think about them carefully, but as soon as she stood up, she found that her legs were shaking a little. She didn't know if it was because she had been sitting for too long or if she was frightened by today's scene. 。The old lady saw her like this and was a little displeased: “Those concubines and children didn't tremble, as the mistress of the house, how can you tremble like this Is that all your insight” Xiao Shi felt very wronged, "My daughter-in-law thinks more than them, the more she thinks, the more afraid..." 。"Today's behavior is almost like a raid! The daughter-in-law isn't someone who's heartless and oblivious. She shouldn't overthink things!"
The old madam heard her explanation, her anger subsided considerably, then earnestly said to her: “You are the mistress of the Ye family, you must uphold your dignity!" 。Even if you're being robbed, you can cry, scream, and beg for your husband's mercy, but you mustn't be afraid. 。Because once you're afraid, everything is over. Once you're afraid, your momentum weakens. 。Do you understandthe royal family ever had any face in front of this deity Why are you being so kind to give them face Talking to her is a waste of your lifespan!" "Just think of it as digesting some food," Ye Wenyan...
