Aunt Cui basically knew everything about Ming Xiyuan. The next day she not only knew the whole story of the young couple's encounter with the snake, but also knew that the two had slept together.
As someone who has experienced it, she can understand that young people can't help themselves, but as an elder she cannot let it go, so Cui Weizhen was called over to lecture her - the last time they talked was when Ye Zhenzhen was found to be anorexic, she
I have taken people to teach me a lesson, so naturally it will be the same this time.
Cui Weizhen obeyed the instructions obediently, and punished the maids once he returned. He could allow the maids to report Ye Zhenzhen's dietary and health problems to the main courtyard, but he also reported the couple's boudoir affairs, which was really unreasonable.
He doesn't want to develop the bad habit of selling his servants to seek glory, so he still needs to be taught a lesson.
Ye Zhenzhen is in charge of the family, she has clear rewards and punishments for her servants, and the rules are not chaotic. However, she has a tolerant and kind temperament and is not harsh on her servants. Therefore, although her servants respect her, they are not afraid of her.
In addition, these people were originally Aunt Cui's old servants, so they listened to Aunt Cui's words more. Fortunately, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was the same as mother and daughter. Otherwise, just with the servants that Aunt Cui controlled, Ye Zhenzhen thought
It is simply impossible to be the master of one's own affairs.
Regarding Cui Weizhen's actions, Ye Zhenzhen was happy to see them come to fruition. She had already had this intention, but she had a lot of criminal records and it was not convenient for her to take action. Otherwise, she would be wrongly accused if she was misunderstood and wanted to do bad things.
These family matters were just daily chores, and Ye Zhenzhen didn't have time to think about them for too long. Her attention was completely occupied by her father, mother, and third uncle's return home.
The merchant ship returning home was scheduled to leave in the morning, so everyone got up early that day.
Cui Weizhen took another day off. Huwa originally wanted to take leave and not go to school, but Aunt Ye stopped her because she focused on studying. He could only endure it and went to school with tears in his eyes, leaving only Cui Weizhen and Ye.
Sister Zhenzhen saw her off.
Ye Zhenzhen has prepared a lot of rituals these days. For convenience, she had already moved the ceremony to the boat. Now she only needs to drive from Jian to the pier. But she didn't expect that when she went out, she would bump into Feng Jinqing who was about to go to court.
.
Feng Jinqing seemed to pretend that the feud between the two families did not exist, and even stopped the carriage to say hello. Ye Zhenzhen felt a little guilty when she saw him, after all, she had just thrown the cauliflower snake into his house yesterday.
However, looking at Feng Jinqing's appearance, it seems that she did not notice the cauliflower snake that was airdropped last night. Of course, there are many servants in Feng Mansion, so it is estimated that it will be solved as soon as it is discovered, without causing any trouble.
As the culprit, Cui Weizhen had a very strong psychological quality. He greeted the other party with a calm expression and greeted each other politely. The two people in the scene just said goodbye politely.
Ye Zhenzhen put down the curtain, and her mother and Peng Peng were saying goodbye. Peng Peng had not said goodbye to her family yet, and her eyes were red. If her mother hadn't been there to persuade her, she would have cried.
.
"You are a big girl now, so you can't cry all the time. When your mother and father go back, you will take care of your sister and brother. You have learned calligraphy now. If you miss your parents, write a letter back. Your father can read it.
Understand the letter.”
Ye Pengpeng agreed one by one, and Aunt Ye began to give Ye Zhenzhen instructions. She was most worried about her eldest daughter. Childbirth is already dangerous for a woman, and it was her first child, so it was even more dangerous.
Aunt Ye couldn't wait to stuff all her experiences of pregnancy and childbirth into her head. Even after hearing it countless times, Ye Zhenzhen still didn't feel impatient and nodded obediently in agreement. From time to time, she would repeat a few sentences to prove that she had taken care of her.
Take your words to heart.
Before we knew it, the dock had arrived.
As the parting was approaching, thousands of words came together to say "treasure". Ye Pengpeng finally started crying, and Ye Zhenzhen couldn't help but her eyes turned red. However, no matter how reluctant they were to leave, her father, mother, and third uncle still got on the boat, and finally followed the boat away.
Go, the figures on the deck are getting farther and farther away, and finally they can no longer be seen clearly.
Ye Zhenzhen patted Ye Pengpeng's shoulder, "Don't be sad, my parents will go to Beijing again soon."
Even if she doesn't come after giving birth to a child, she will still come when she proposes marriage to Ye Pengpeng.
Ye Pengpeng didn't think much about it. She simply trusted her elder sister and was quickly coaxed. However, her mood was still low and it took about ten days and a half to recover.
More than half a month later, when Ye Zhenzhen was five months pregnant, she finally received a letter from Linxi County. The letter not only reported that she was safe, but also announced that she was mourning - Ye Jiajia, the eldest daughter of the second room of the Ye family, fell ill and passed away.
.
The letter said that Ye Jiajia was discovered when they returned to Linyang Mansion. She lived alone in the inn, and she contracted a serious illness and died without anyone knowing. It happened that they stayed in the inn and found a tattoo on the female body.
Only after looking at the marked handkerchief did it confirm that this was Ye Jiajia - as for why she had to trust people with tokens, it was because she contracted a nasty disease before her death, and her whole body was covered in blisters, even her face was no exception. However, her stature and facial features were very unusual.
Similar, even the people in the second room had no objections.
Because of the hot weather, the body was buried quickly. The letter also asked Ye Zhenzhen not to be too sad, which would affect her body. The words were very sincere and full of grief and condolences for the death of a loved one. The scholar who ghostwritten the family letter must have felt the same way.
, the sadness between the lines almost overflows.
Ye Zhenzhen knew the inside story and saw that her family had successfully solved their worries. She was completely relieved. However, the whole drama had to be acted out and buried in Linxi County. As a sister, she still needed to show her dignity.
So she ordered the sewing room to prepare clothes, called Ye Pengpeng and Huwa over, and said: "Your second sister died of illness and has been buried in the family. Although she acted absurdly during her lifetime, she is a biological sister after all. You are wearing plain clothes and eating.
Be vegetarian, abstain from feasting, and mourn for her."
Although Huwa was young, he did not hide Ye Jiajia's matter from him. He was afraid that Ye Jiajia would do whatever it took to take advantage of him. Therefore, after hearing what Ye Zhenzhen said, they both understood and immediately took off their bright clothes.
The bright accessories nodded in unison: "Sister, we understand."
Ye Zhenzhen nodded with satisfaction. She felt that she was not low-key enough. She stopped the business of the women's club for three days and even served porridge and prayed for blessings in front of the Xiangguo Temple. As a result, most of the people in the capital knew that Ye Niangzi's cousin died young.
.
Although she has not appeared in the capital's social circles for a long time, the legend of Ye Zhenzhen is still circulating in the social circles. Her popularity has not diminished, and she has received many letters of condolence. Even Chu Ningyan, who had her baby at home, also learned of the news and asked her maid to send her condolences.
.
Ye Zhenzhen was bored at home on weekdays, so she personally replied to everyone's letters to thank her. Her relationship with Chu Ningyan was unusual, and she didn't hide it. She wrote to tell her the inside story, and thus she gained another comrade who shared the same hatred.
Ye Zhenzhen got what she wanted, but she didn't know that someone was going crazy because of it.
