Mrs. Zhou and Mrs. Wu went back after dinner.
The two of them originally planned to greet each other for a while and then say goodbye, but they didn't expect to be able to talk to Li Wenxiu quite well.
The two of them listened to her talk about the interesting things on the mountain with great interest, and the time came to noon before they knew it.
The princess personally invited them to eat again, and the two agreed with a smile.
The two of them and Liu Wenxiu had been talking in the room and knew nothing about what happened outside.
I didn't know that the Crown Princess's grandfather and uncle came over.
But they heard one or two words from their men, which seemed to say that the relationship between the two families was not good.
When the two went back, they saw Ye Yuqing's shop was bustling with people, and Mrs. Wu on the carriage smiled sarcastically.
She had heard some time ago that the concubine of the second son of the Prince of Pingyuan was the cousin of the Crown Princess.
Because the Crown Princess has not summoned her life wife since she came to Beijing.
Some people wanted to curry favor but had no idea where to start. They had to go to her cousin's shop to buy things and get some information.
Mrs. Wu told her eldest maid: "Go and say hello to the ladies and ladies you are familiar with later, and let them find out more about it before you come back to spend money. You will save money but end up making a mess."
In fact, what she wanted to say was, let them take it easy and don't flatter them.
But this sentence seemed too rude and disrespectful to the Crown Princess, so I changed it to a euphemistic way of saying it.
Mrs. Wu thought to herself that the Crown Princess and the two Young Masters must have known about this shop for a long time, but they did not stop it, so they must have other ideas.
Thinking about the smart people in that family, Mrs. Wu felt that her husband was really discerning and had made the right choice early on.
This time she had the honor to help the Crown Princess buy a dowry, so she must work hard and do her best to get this thing done.
When Ye Laogen and his son returned home, it was lunch time.
Smoke was rising from the nearby yards. No one was home, so they must have gone to the shop.
Ye Daqing pulled a handkerchief from the rope in the yard and patted the dirt on his body.
Then he threw away the handkerchief and said, "Dad, that damn girl is so unkind, what should we do now?"
Ye Laogen smoked a dry cigarette expressionlessly, his eyes were gloomy, and his face was still covered in mud from being pushed to the ground by the guards just now.
Ye Dazhuang first glanced at his father, then at Ye Daqing, the most scheming person in their family, and said hesitantly:
"Dad, third brother, if the eldest brother really doesn't want to recognize us, why don't we forget it?
The third brother and Mingxiang have already passed the exams of scholar and tongsheng, and there is a girl Qing to help in the shop. Our lives will definitely be the same in the future, so why bother to look at the faces of the boss and his family. "
Ye Daqing looked at the short-sighted second brother and said unhappily: "Second brother, what do you know? If the eldest brother's family doesn't recognize us, then what's the use of Mingxiang and I reading more books?"
"No way? How can the emperor listen to his wife's orders regarding court matters?"
Ye Dazhuang said disapprovingly: "In a few years, that dead girl will no longer have good looks and a good family background? There are so many concubines in the emperor's harem, how can she be remembered? By then, she will want to cause trouble for you, and I'm afraid she will be worried There is more than enough but not enough power.”
Ye Daqing was about to refute, but then Old Man Ye said: "Third brother, I think what your second brother said makes sense.
Looking at how cruel that damn girl is right now, if we really want to do something, I'm afraid it won't end well.
Why don't we wait and wait for two years? When her opponent appears, let's spread the word about her disobedience and unfilial piety, so that the dead girl will never be able to turn around. "
At the end of the sentence, Old Man Ye was gritting his teeth. Thinking of the insult just now, he wished he could kill Ye Yutong now.
It seemed that what Ye Yutong said today had a huge impact on their family.
Although Ye Daqing was very reluctant, he also understood that this was the only way to go now.
Since Ye Yutong doesn't recognize them, no matter what he does, it won't help.
"Daqing, go to Pingyuan Hou Mansion later and tell Girl Qing exactly what happened today."
Old Man Ye thought for a moment and then said, "Let her keep a low profile these days."
"I got it, Dad."
Ye Yuqing was coaxing her son to play in her room. When she heard that someone was coming to the house, she handed the child to the maid and hurried to the back door.
But when she heard that her grandfather had been thrown out by Ye Yutong, she stayed there in shock, followed by worry and fear.
During this period, she earned a lot of benefits in Ye Yutong's name.
If it was known that the Crown Princess did not recognize her as her cousin, how would she deal with herself in the future?
"Qing'er, you don't have to worry too much. Ye Yutong said that as long as we don't mess with her, nothing will happen to her."
Ye Daqing told her the family's plan again, "Your grandpa said, let's just be patient for now and wait until that dead girl's opponent shows up before we take action."
Ye Yuqing asked in a low voice: "Is the opponent I mentioned is the future emperor's concubine?"
"Yes, which emperor didn't have three palaces and six courtyards? When the daughters of those ministers' families enter the palace, Ye Yutong, a country girl with no family background, still wants to compete with those ladies of the world for favor, and I don't know how she died. "Ye Daqing said confidently.
Ye Yuqing strongly agreed with his point of view, "Uncle San is right, I don't know how many people are staring at the position of the concubines in the harem.
Even if Ye Yutong becomes the queen, she will still be walking on thin ice. I'm afraid she won't be able to protect herself at that time. How can she care about us? "
Ye Yuqing understands the bad nature of men very well. She talks nicely when she is gentle, but how many of them are long-term?
Even Yulang, who was obsessed with her, had several aunts and maids in the house.
In this way, he often looks for excitement outside.
Not to mention that if the emperor is the king of a country, will he not be able to choose all the women in the world at will? Which man can handle such a good thing?
Thinking of this, she felt more balanced and less jealous of Ye Yutong.
She smiled and said to Ye Daqing: "Third uncle, tell me that I know what to do."
Ye Daqing nodded and remembered something again, "Qing'er, in that shop..."
If this matter had happened before, he wouldn't have cared about it at all. Anyway, with his parents here, he would definitely not be missing out on his share.
But now things have changed. He and Ye Yuqing are grasshoppers on the same rope.
Does that shop affect whether he can continue studying in the capital? That's why he asked.
Ye Yuqing paused for a moment, thinking of the news she had spread during this period.
Mrs. Hou also often asked Ye Yutong quietly about things, and she clutched the handkerchief anxiously.
Ye Daqing could see her embarrassment, but he was actually a little anxious himself.
Because he and Ye Mingxiang were in the academy, he also intentionally revealed his relationship with Ye Yutong.
He thought for a while and said: "Qing'er, Ye Yutong has no intention of causing trouble for us yet. Let's be careful when talking in the future and don't say anything too clearly.
Just let others know that we have this relationship, but we must also let others know that we do not take advantage of the Crown Princess. "
If someone hears this, they will definitely call them shameless. This is because they want to be a bitch and want to build a memorial arch.
Ye Yuqing's eyes lit up after hearing this, feeling that Jiang was still too old.
Her third uncle's idea was really good, wasn't he just pretending to be aloof? She's good at this.
Ye Yuqing said with a smile: "I understand, thank you third uncle for your guidance."
Ye Daqing nodded, opened the folding fan gracefully with his right hand, and turned around to leave Pingyuan Hou Mansion.
