"Sister Li'er, who did you ask me to bring?" Ye Xiuan was dressed in a moon-white brocade robe, which made him look even more handsome. Behind him was Dong Lingxin, who was wearing a brown brocade robe. The two of them were both civilized and martial, which was quite eye-catching.
"Nonsense!" When Ye Fuxun saw Ye Xiuan leading Dong Lingxin into Fusheng Pavilion, he threw away the chess pieces in his hand, his face darkened, and he shouted sternly, "This is the inner courtyard, how can you lead people in at will? Ye Xiuan, you are getting more and more
It’s even more disrespectful!”
"Miss, please calm down, it was Ning Yuan who was reckless." Dong Lingxin hurriedly bowed his head. He met Ye Xiu'an on the way. The two of them had some connection with Ye Han when they were children. In addition, Ye Xiu'an's Li'er sister was sent back by Dong Lingxin himself a few days ago.
After arriving at the mansion, he began to think of a matchmaker.
"Sister, it's Shaoqing." Shaoqing is Ye Xiu'an's nickname. Now Ye Xiu'an is almost fifteen years old. In front of Ye Fuxun, it is no longer appropriate to call him by his nickname. He can only call him by his given name. Since Ye Fuxun came back,
, I have never scolded Ye Xiuan in front of so many people. Ye Xiuan also realized his recklessness. Although he trusted Dong Lingxin's character, he and Ye Yili were alone after all, and he brought him in openly.
If this spreads out to Fusheng Pavilion, it will not be good for the reputation of Ye Fuxun and Ye Yili. Ye Xiuan wants to give himself a slap in the face, why are you so careless!
"Today, Shaoqing invited Vice General Dong into the mansion as a guest. He lost his way for a while and entered Fusheng Pavilion by mistake. Anyone who did not know is not guilty. It is Shaoqing who did not entertain him well."
The maids in the room lowered their heads, and no one dared to talk. When Ye Xiuan saw that his sister had stepped down, he hurriedly said, "It's Shaoqing's fault. Shaoqing took Vice General Dong back first."
Dong Lingxin glanced at Ye Yili, who kept his head down, not daring to look at him, and then at Ye Fuxun, who was sitting in the seat and was calm and majestic. He had to say that the eldest lady of the Ye family was really bold, but he still preferred the one next to him.
That woman who looks like a little white rabbit.
“The scenery inside Liuliu Pavilion is nice, and it is surrounded by water to cool off the heat. It is suitable for entertaining guests.”
After hearing this, a smile flashed in Ye Xiu'an's eyes, and he took Vice General Dong to Liuliu Pavilion.
After the two people left, Ye Yili dared to raise her head and looked into Ye Fuxun's eyes with a slight smile. She lowered her head shyly. Ye Fuxun chuckled softly, "Sister Li'er, I don't blame my sister for not doing this."
Give face to Vice General Dong."
"No." Ye Yili replied in a low voice. She also knew that Ye Fuxun was doing it for her own good. After all, it was not appropriate for a grown man like Dong Lingxin to enter the inner courtyard.
"It's good that you understand." Ye Fuxun straightened Ye Yili's bun and said, "Li'er, you have to remember that as a woman, you need to love yourself. You can fight for your own happiness, but the premise is
You must know how to protect yourself. Today, Ye Xiuan, that bastard who is ignorant, secretly brought Dong Lingxin into the inner courtyard. If word spreads, it will not be good for your reputation or mine."
"Sister, Li'er understands these things."
"As long as you understand. Okay, now they are in the Liuliu Pavilion. You can bring a few more maids there." This Liuliu Pavilion is in the front yard of Ye Mansion, very close to Ye Hanliang's study. It is also used by Ye Hanliang to entertain some literati.
In this place, although Ye Yili was a female family member, in the Xuanyue Dynasty, female family members could also entertain guests, but only in the hall and front yard.
Hearing what Ye Fuxun said, Ye Yili's face turned even redder. She hummed like a fly and walked out with Zheng'er and other maids. As soon as Ye Yili left, there was no one to play chess with her.
, she fiddled with it boringly for a few times, and then ordered someone to put the chessboard away. At this moment, Qingqin came in with a sandalwood plate. On the plate was a cloud brocade gold wedding dress, smiling at Ye Fu
Xun saluted and said, "Miss, the wedding dress has been embroidered. Do you want to try it on and see where it doesn't fit? I will take it to the embroiderers to change it."
Qingruo and Qingyun stepped forward and unfolded the wedding dress. The wedding dress was made of fine red cloud embroidery. It was a gold silk double-layer Guangzhou damask long-sleeved shirt with cloud-patterned mandarin duck patterns embroidered on the edges. On the chest was a
A red gold inlaid ruby collar button is fastened. The outer cover is embroidered with silver thread to look like a peacock spreading its wings. When the outer cover is unfolded, the peacock seems to really spread its wings and is about to fly. The peach red satin is embroidered with a double flower and bird pattern on the waistband and embroidered on the skirt.
The pattern of a hundred sons and a hundred blessings is embroidered, with a long tail skirt that reaches three feet to the ground, and an inch-long gold silk embellishment rolled around the edge.
Ye Fuxun stretched out his hand to touch the wedding dress, his eyes full of tenderness. Qingruo and others helped Ye Fuxun put on the wedding dress. The fiery red wedding dress made Ye Fuxun's skin whiter, and her bright eyes were curved.
The willow eyebrows, the thin lips are as fresh and tender as rose petals, the long hair is tied up, but there is a trace of hair left to add charm. Ye Fuxun, who is wearing the wedding dress, is more charming and dignified than usual, Qingqin
Looking at Ye Fuxun with envy, "Miss, you are so beautiful."
Ye Fuxun smiled brightly, stretched out his hand to pinch Qingqin's face, and said with a smile, "You are the only one with a sweet mouth."
Qingruo looked up and down, adjusted the hem of Ye Fuxun's clothes, and said, "Miss, this wedding dress really fits you."
"If the lady thinks it fits, I will go back to the embroiderer now. There is no need to modify it."
"Yes." Ye Fuxun straightened his hair in the mirror and said, "Remember to reward the embroiderers. It's not easy in such a hot day."
Qingqin responded and walked out. Qingruo and others helped Ye Fuxun take off her wedding dress. As soon as they finished dressing up, Qing Hua walked in and said, "Miss, I'd like to see you."
"Let her come in." Ye Fuxun turned around and sat on the couch, watching Ji Xiang walk in quickly with his head lowered. Seeing Ye Fuxun hurriedly bowing, "I have seen the eldest lady."
"What are you doing here at Fusheng Pavilion?" Jixiang usually meets Qingruo in private and rarely comes to Fusheng Pavilion.
"Yesterday, the second lady hurriedly took some valuables from the warehouse and ordered her personal maid Chunmei to pawn them."
"The second sister who presides over the middle school feed will also be short of money." Ye Fuxun supported his head and looked at Jixiang with a smile, "Is it just such a small thing?"
"No, eldest lady, there are not only the old lady's dowry in this warehouse, but also the first lady's dowry. I thought that the second lady could not get the old lady's dowry from the warehouse, because the old lady often sent people to take care of it, so the slave girl
I boldly guessed that the item Chunmei pawned yesterday might belong to Madam. So today, I took advantage of Auntie Xie’s sleep to come here to report it.”
Ye Fuxun thought for a moment and then ordered, "Qingyun, go check it out." He then gestured to Qingruo, who took out a few silver coins from his waist and put them in Jixiang's hand, and Jixiang took them away with a smile.
After getting off, he saluted Ye Fuxun and walked out happily.
"Qingying, please come to Tang Mansion and ask for a copy of my mother's dowry list."
Her beautiful eyes darkened, "Ye Yunshang, you have a very big list. You dare to touch your mother's dowry."
The next day, early in the morning, Ye Fuxun took Qingyun and Qingruo to pay respects to the old lady. Ever since Ye Fuxun took back the shop where Tang Wan was dowed, Mrs. Ye couldn't afford to fall ill.
Her health was also going up and down, and now even if she no longer wanted to see Ye Fuxun, her granddaughter, she still had to save her face. When she saw Ye Fuxun walking in, she cheered up and smiled, "Come here, Xun'er."
Now." He turned around and told the maid, "Go bring a stool over and let the young lady sit down."
Ye Fuxun sat down next to Mrs. Ye and asked with concern, "Is grandma feeling better these days?"
"A handful of old bones." Mrs. Ye turned the beads in her hand and sighed, "Half of her body is buried in the loess." Ye Fuxun took over the conversation with a smile, "Grandma is not old, how can I still have Chen?
His Highness the King rewarded you with a ginseng plant, and my granddaughter asked your maid to bring it to you."
"Good boy, you are so thoughtful." Mrs. Ye's favorite thing is to take advantage of her. As soon as she heard that Ye Fuxun had something good to honor her, she immediately beamed and asked smoothly, "Xun'er came to grandma's house so early, but what's the matter?
Something?"
Ye Fuxun lowered his head pretending to be shy and said with a smile, "Yesterday, my aunt sent my mother's dowry list. I asked Xun'er to check it out, so I don't bother my grandmother so early in the morning."
Mrs. Ye's cloudy eyes rolled and she understood what Ye Fuxun meant. She turned around and told the old lady beside her, "Go and get the key to the warehouse and give it to the eldest lady." She originally planned to keep Tang Wan's dowry for herself.
But after returning home, I found that her granddaughter was different from the past. She fought with her several times and was defeated. Although Mrs. Ye was greedy for money, she was also a good person. If she could be on good terms with her granddaughter, let her granddaughter read
Because of her kindness, I will rely on her, the granddaughter of Princess Chen, to do things in the future.
"My granddaughter has thanked my grandmother here." Seeing Qingruo taking the key, Ye Fuxun said to Mrs. Ye with a smile, "My grandson will not disturb my grandma anymore. Grandma can rest easy."
Mrs. Ye looked at Ye Fuxun's calm back and had to admit that her granddaughter was the best among all the daughters of the Ye family.
When they arrived at the warehouse, Qingruo and Qingyun counted Tang Wan's dowry. Qingruo took the gift list and walked up to Ye Fuxun and said, "Miss, the first lady's dowry has a lot of pieces, but the gift list has a total of
Three objects are missing, a gold-inlaid and white jade Guanyin, a pair of jade Ruyi, and a pair of butterfly wings and golden steps. These objects have all been replaced by three calligraphy and paintings."
While listening to Qing Ruo's report, Ye Fuxun tapped the table with his right finger. When he heard the movement outside, he raised his eyes to look at Qing Yun and said with a smile, "Go and invite father."
"Sister, why are you here in the warehouse?" Ye Yunshang hurried in with a few maids. He saw Ye Fuxun sitting calmly beside the book, sipping tea, and took another look. Ye Fuxun was holding a whip next to him.
Qingyun, who stood there, felt a little guilty, "You can't enter this warehouse without father's order. Even if I am a younger sister, I have to report to my father when I enter the warehouse. My eldest sister entered the warehouse privately today. If my father knows about it, I'm afraid he will be unhappy. Or
Please leave quickly, eldest sister, lest father find out and get angry."
