Mr. Wen looked at the thin and small Ye Jintang with mixed feelings in his heart.
As long as the Wen family has a little bit of fame, he will find a way to keep her in the Wen family.
As long as he is around, he will definitely find a good marriage for her and let her live a carefree life.
But the Wen family had nothing but money.
The Danyang Marquis Mansion in the capital is in no way bad, but it is still a Marquis Mansion.
When the legitimate daughter of a marquis chooses a husband, the worst she can do is become a Jinshi. From now on, she will also be an official's wife, and ordinary people with flat heads will bow to her when they see her.
For Ye Jintang, going to the capital and returning to Danyang Houfu is the best choice.
Ye Jintang naturally knows this truth.
Danyang Houfu can give her a noble background, which is very important for her future life.
"I will take my parents back to the Danyang Marquis Mansion."
"Grandpa, my parents must be buried in the ancestral graves of Danyang Marquis Mansion."
Ye Jintang is very concerned about this.
During the time she had been in contact with Ye Song, she had also realized that Danyang Houfu only wanted her family's money.
It's hard to say whether they can let her parents enter the ancestral grave.
But in order to make her future smoother, the first thing she did after returning to the capital was to bury her parents in the Ye family's ancestral grave.
"That's fine. Grandpa knows that you have relatively few people around you, and you've never been in the capital before. Knowing that you were coming, I bought you a few people you could use early on."
Mr. Wen called people over, two young girls and two boys. They looked a few years older than Ye Jintang.
The two nuns are slightly older, and one of them even has some gray hair on her temples.
They bowed politely as soon as they came in.
"They all used to work as servants for wealthy families in the capital. These two grandmothers were in the capital before, and they were quite capable as stewards."
"This is Aunt Zhang. She has taught many ladies of the family. Grandpa wants to ask Aunt Zhang to teach you the rules of the capital so that you won't be picked on after you go to the Danyang Marquis Mansion."
"Grandpa, thank you."
Ye Jintang stood up and saluted Mr. Wen. She didn't expect that he had thought so carefully.
Mr. Wen knew that her life would be difficult when she went to Danyang Hou Mansion, so he tried every means to help her improve her skills. As long as she didn't make any mistakes, others would not want to cause trouble for her.
"Jintang, you are my only granddaughter. If I don't think about you, who will?"
Speaking of this, Mr. Wen's eyes flashed with tears.
Ye Jintang quickly comforted the old man. She had always been afraid that Mr. Wen would not be able to accept the pain of losing his daughter, and that he would hurt his body due to his grief.
Then Ye Jintang talked about the exile of the Song family.
"Song Deshan is dead, and my parents' great revenge has been avenged."
"The death of one Song Deshan from the Song family is not enough. I want to make the Song family extinct."
Mr. Wen had a ruthless look on his face, but the ruthlessness was fleeting.
"We don't talk about that."
"Steward Liu, go to Ziqiu's place to see if he's back. Jintang has been here for a long time and he hasn't been seen yet."
"Yes, I'll go take a look, old slave."
Butler Liu, who had been standing at the door, hurried away.
Ye Jintang was confused, who was this Zi Qiu?
"I only have one daughter, your mother. A few years ago, the family asked me to adopt a child under their knees so that I can inherit the Wen family's great business."
"It's a pity that the fate of my children is too shallow. I adopted several children but failed to raise them."
"Later, an expert told me that I was not destined to have a son, and that no matter how many times I adopted him, I would not be able to support him. The expert gave me a trick: adopt an orphan in the clan and raise him as a grandson."
"There are many ways here, and Ziqiu was selected only the year before last."
"It's strange to say that I have felt very friendly from the first time I met Ziqiu. We have been together for more than a year. I feel that Ziqiu is good. The Wen family's business has gradually been put into his hands, and he is running a pretty good job. .”
Ye Jintang somewhat believed what Mr. Wen said.
This world is full of mysterious things, otherwise she wouldn't be here.
While the two were talking, Wen Ziqiu, dressed in a dark blue riding outfit, finally arrived.
Wen Ziqiu is much older than Ye Jintang. He is tall and tall, but his eyebrows are very good, giving people the impression of a young man like Wen Ruyu.
"Didn't you say you were going to Zhuangzi to check the accounts? Why are you dressed like this?"
"I've checked the accounts a long time ago. I have nothing to do. My grandson invited some friends to play polo together, so he came back late."
"This must be cousin Jintang."
"I've met cousin Ziqiu."
Ye Jintang stepped forward to greet Wen Ziqiu very generously.
"I only heard that cousin Jintang is very beautiful. Only after meeting her today did I finally understand how beautiful she is."
Being praised so suddenly made Ye Jintang feel a little embarrassed even if he was thick-skinned.
"Jintang will stay at our house for a few days. Ziqiu, please go make arrangements."
As Mr. Wen looked over, Ye Jintang, who was dressed in men's clothing, continued, "Xingnan City is very prosperous, not much worse than the capital. When you settle down, let Ziqiu take you around Xingnan City."
"yes."
Ye Jintang responded obediently.
The three of them sat in the study and talked for another while. Although Mr. Wen still had a lot to say to Ye Jintang, he was not in a hurry. She was exhausted on the way to Xingnan. They would have time when she had a good rest. Speak slowly.
Wen Ziqiu wanted to send Ye Jintang to the courtyard where she lived, but was stopped by Mr. Wen, who asked Grandma Zhang to take Ye Jintang and his party to the backyard instead.
Although the two of them are not very old, there are differences between men and women after all. Wen Ziqiu is a foreigner and it is not easy for him to get close to Ye Jintang all the time.
Mrs. Wen died early, and Mr. Wen did not renew his marriage. After Mrs. Wen got married, the huge Wen family mansion became even more deserted.
"Miss Ye, the master asked me to prepare this yard specially for you. Let me see if you like it. If there is anything wrong, just tell me."
"Thank you for your help, Mother Ji."
The Wen family has a simple population, and there are only two aunts in the backyard, so they don't need anyone to manage the family. Aunt Ji is basically in charge of everything in the backyard.
The small courtyard where Ye Jintang lives is not big, but it is very delicate. Although it is autumn, there are still many flowers and plants planted in the courtyard.
The house is also decorated extremely elegantly, and all the furniture and furnishings are extremely expensive. Even the teapot used on the table is made of fine porcelain with fine texture and rich colors.
Looking at the exquisitely carved Babu bed in the back room, it is worth thousands of gold. There is a jewelry box on the dressing table with more than a dozen pieces of various jewelry in it.
Looking at everything in the house, Ye Jintang couldn't help but sigh in her heart, the Wen family is really rich and powerful, and she, a little girl, has managed such a luxurious house.
Ye Jintang didn't bring much luggage when he came, so it was easy to pack it up.
She asked Zhou Cong to take the four strongest ginseng plants and send them to Mr. Wen.
Although the Wen family lacks nothing, this is still Ye Jintang's wish.
As soon as Ye Jintang sat down and took a few sips of tea, Nanny Ji filed in with a few maids and a lot of things.
"Miss Ye, this is the clothing material that the master sent to the slaves. Let's see if you like it."
The maids brought a total of 20 pieces of fabric for Ye Jintang to choose from.
