Ye Yuqing was wearing a pink slanted top, which made her face look as white as snow.
She was embroidering a bright red wedding dress on her hands, which looked very gorgeous. She had prepared this for herself.
Ever since she met Yulang, she had resorted to desperate measures to make him obsessed with him, and she would not marry him unless she wanted to marry him.
Having been his concubine for so many years in his previous life, Yulang's preferences were all under his control.
She also knows the personalities of the several masters of the Hou Mansion very well.
Now Yulang is only a teenager, he has not been in contact with many women, and he is still very green.
She casually used the tricks she had used to serve him in her previous life, and this won over his heart.
Thinking of this, Ye Yuqing smiled proudly.
With how obsessed Yulang is with her now, she should be able to marry him as his wife as she wishes in this life.
After embroidering the last few stitches, she gently touched the gorgeous wedding dress with her hands for a while, then carefully folded it and placed it in the cabinet.
Ye Yuqing opened the door, and Old Ye and Ye Dazhuang were sitting in the yard basking in the sun.
Ye Zhang and Huang Yunqin are making shoes.
Ye Mingwei was eating two snacks. The sound of Ye Daqing and Ye Mingxiang reading came from the side room next to them.
If such a picture is seen by an uninformed person, it will only feel like the family is harmonious and warm.
But who could have guessed how vicious their family's thoughts are, and they will do anything to achieve their goals.
When Mrs. Ye Zhang saw her granddaughter coming out of the room, she said lovingly: "Girl Qing, are you tired of embroidery? There are osmanthus cakes in the main room. You go and eat two pieces to fill your belly. At noon, grandma will make braised pork for you. ."
"Thank you, grandma." Ye Yuqing said delicately, leaning on Mrs. Ye Zhang's shoulder.
Ever since she met Yulang, there has been no trouble in her family.
Grandma no longer forced her to embroider every day, and even Grandpa was much kinder to her.
My eldest brother and my brother-in-law study hard. Thanks to Yulang's relationship, the two of them made many friends in the academy, and both of them were admitted to Tongsheng this year.
I heard Yulang say some time ago that my uncle is expected to be admitted as a scholar next year.
She originally wanted to separate from her grandparents and brother-in-law before getting married, but now it seems that she should wait.
Before she marries into the Marquis's house, nothing can go wrong.
The most important thing at this time is to comfort the family members and prevent a fire in the backyard. But she can't let her grandma and uncle spoil her good deeds.
It doesn't matter if we don't separate the families now, if my uncle really gets admitted as a scholar next year, then she will look better.
Thinking of this, Ye Yuqing's face became softer.
They now live in a small courtyard in the south of the city, which Ye Yuqing rented from someone some time ago, and they just moved in two days ago.
There is a mix of people living here, most of them are doing small businesses nearby, and some are working as coolies on the docks.
Before moving here, they put on the coarse cloth clothes they had worn in the countryside. The clothes he wears are similar to those of his nearby neighbors, so it doesn't seem out of place to live here.
Moreover, they are usually very low-key and never interact with the people nearby. Except for buying daily necessities, they rarely even go out.
Ye Daqing and Ye Mingxiang did not go to the academy during this period and read at home every day.
Ye Mingwei cried and wanted to go out to play, but Old Man Ye gave him a lesson himself. Now I don't dare to talk about going out. I stay at home honestly every day, and at most I peek outside through the cracks in the door.
They all know that this is an extraordinary period. If Ye Yuqing can successfully marry into the Pingyuan Hou Mansion this time, then the Ye family will be able to prosper in the future.
Huang Yunqin glanced at her daughter and said worriedly: "Qing'er, Mr. Han is the young master of the Hou family. Will their family really allow you to come in?"
Ye Yuqing pretended to be noble and said: "Mom, it was Mr. Han who said he wanted to marry me, and I didn't insist on marrying him. If their family doesn't agree, I just won't marry."
If Yulang threatens to marry her with a hunger strike, given the love Mrs. Pingyuanhou and Mrs. Han have for Yulang, she is 80% sure that she can marry into the Hou Mansion.
Madam Hou might have some objections to her at first, but as long as Yulang faces her, that's fine.
When she gives birth to a boy and a half girl, won't her position be secure?
Old man Ye listened to the conversation between their mother and daughter and squinted his eyes, wondering what he was thinking.
Ye Dazhuang was very excited when he talked about his daughter's marriage.
His future brother-in-law is the young master of the Hou Mansion. He never dared to think that his daughter could marry into the Hou Mansion.
From now on, he and the Marquis will be in-laws.
If the villagers knew about it, why would they be envious of him?
Hearing the voices in the courtyard, Ye Daqing and Ye Mingxiang were no longer interested in studying, so they came out of the room.
Ye Daqing looked at Ye Yuqing with a smile and said in a gentle tone: "Qing'er, we have moved here for two or three days, and I don't know how Mr. Han is doing with his family. How about Mingxiang and I go out and find out?"
Before Ye Yuqing could speak, Old Ye immediately stopped her and said, "No, you can't go. Let's not get involved in this matter. Just let Girl Qing make her own decision."
Old Man Ye didn't say this because he cared about his granddaughter, he just didn't want his son to ruin the important matter of getting married to the Hou Mansion.
After arriving in the capital, he discovered that this granddaughter was not a simple person now.
The obsessed look in Mr. Han's eyes when he looked at her made him, an old man, embarrassed to see her.
With such powerful abilities and methods, she doesn't even need her family to help her make decisions.
And the good embroidery skills have earned the Ye family a lot of money, and they bought a shop some time ago.
Although the shop is not big, the daily income is enough for their family.
Now the embroidery work done by Qing Yatou is not handed over to the father-in-law, and she said she wants to keep it for herself as a dowry.
Although he and the old woman felt a little uncomfortable, they agreed after discussing it.
Now is different from before. This girl is getting married soon. We can't argue with her for a little money.
When she marries into the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion, can she still ignore her natal family? Aren't you afraid that if the news spreads, others will poke her spine?
Old man Ye narrowed his small eyes with a cheerful expression on his face.
In my heart, I dreamed that after my granddaughter married into the Hou family, the Ye family would also be able to follow the rising tide.
When Ye Yuqing saw that her grandfather refused on her behalf, she smiled and said, "Uncle and eldest brother, don't worry. Mr. Han has said that we can live here with peace of mind. He will send someone to tell me when he has made an agreement with his family." of."
"Okay, okay, that's good." Ye Daqing breathed a sigh of relief.
He hoped that Ye Yuqing could successfully marry into Pingyuan Hou Mansion, so that he could achieve success in the capital in the future.
The whole family is looking forward to the good news about Han Yucheng with heart and eyes.
At this time, the Pingyuan Hou Mansion was not as peaceful as their home.
Mrs. Hou's words were like thunder, which stunned Mrs. Han.
"What are you talking about? Yu'er wants to regret her marriage to the Lin family and marry a country girl? Is he crazy? Do you know what he is doing?"
Madam Hou wiped the red corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, "Old madam, Yu'er has been kneeling in our courtyard for a day and a night without eating or drinking. She also said that if she doesn't agree to him, he won't get up."
When Mrs. Han heard that her grandson had been kneeling for so long and still had no water, she felt extremely distressed.
"Then why did you say it now? In this weather, how can you, a mother-in-law, bear to let him kneel outside all night? If you catch the cold, it will be too late to regret it."
Then she said to the maid behind her: "Hurry up and bring the second young master over. Let the kitchen make ginger soup and boil hot water and wait for the second young master to change his clothes."
"Yes, madam."
After receiving the order, the two maids immediately took people to Madam Hou's yard.
Mrs. Pingyuan Hou didn't say anything. After all, he was his biological son.
She had been kneeling outside all day and night, and she felt very distressed.
But she couldn't agree to his request, so she could only cruelly let him continue to kneel.
Now that the old lady has come forward, she will naturally not stop it.
Han Yucheng was helped over by two boys.
Mrs. Han looked at her frail grandson, held him in her arms distressedly, and shouted heartily.
Han Yucheng knelt on the ground, hugged her legs and begged, "Grandma, my grandson really likes Yuqing. Please promise your grandson this time. From now on, your grandson will definitely be obedient and never mess with grandma and parents again." Angry."
Mrs. Han paused after hearing what he said. She first asked the maid to help him up, and then she persuaded him earnestly.
"Yu'er, you are engaged. The eldest daughter of the Lin family is outstanding in appearance and has a very good character.
Your father personally asked for it for you, so our family cannot regret the marriage under any circumstances.
As for that country girl, if you really like her, I will take her into my house and make her your concubine. "
Han Yucheng coughed weakly and shook his head firmly, "Grandma, I don't want to marry any eldest girl from the Lin family. I only like Yuqing, and I only want to marry her in this life. I don't want anyone else."
Mrs. Han saw that he was so indifferent and could not even listen to his good words, and her face became dark.
"Yu'er, the older you get, the less sensible you become. Your father and Mr. Lin personally decided on your marriage to the eldest daughter of the Lin family. Neither your mother nor I can make the decision.
And don’t you understand what is involved? Do you think this marriage can be ruined just by regretting it? "
Han Yucheng also knew the purpose of the marriage between the two families.
He had no one he liked before and thought it didn't matter who he married, but now he met Yuqing, didn't he?
How could he wrong his sweetheart to be his concubine?
Besides, Yuqing would not agree, even though their family fled from the countryside.
But Yuqing was very angry. She had told him before that she would rather marry a country boy than become a concubine for others.
Han Yucheng was silent for a while, then lifted up his robe and knelt in front of Mrs. Han, "My grandson really can't live without Yuqing. Please ask my grandmother to help my grandson this time."
