While Mr. Xue was gnashing his teeth angrily, Ye Qinglan was staying leisurely in the house, eating the latest fruits of the season and reading idle books to relieve his boredom.
Of course, this fruit was not brought by Mrs.
Great stuff. These fresh fruits are very expensive, and Cui Wan specially sent them to them.
Ruomei smiled and reported in a low voice: "Miss, Hongxiao has eaten well and slept well in the past few days, and she has not done any sewing work anymore. She has gained weight and is in much better spirits. Also, I am sending you a gift from my slave.
She gave most of the money to Mother Chen. Now Mother Chen doesn’t embarrass her anymore.”
Ye Qinglan nodded with satisfaction. After all, Hong Xiao was not too stupid. Before, he was so focused on trying to please Mr. Xue, but he didn't know anything about Mr. Xue's scheme. Now with a little push, he came to his senses.
Of course, she herself couldn't have frequent contact with Hongxiao, otherwise it would be bad if she aroused Xue's suspicion. As a secret guard, Ruomei was agile, and it was a piece of cake to send messages back and forth. Ye Qinglan was able to
Keep abreast of first-hand information and teach Hung Hom how to deal with it in a timely manner.
Judging from the current situation, there will be no problem for the Hung Hom to protect itself in the short term. However, this is only a temporary solution, not the root cause. If Xue is determined to deal with the Hung Hom, the Hung Hom will still not be able to escape...
Ye Qinglan thought for a moment and then casually ordered: "Ruixue, go prepare some pen and ink. I want to write a letter to my father."
Ruixue was startled, then responded immediately and hurriedly prepared. Ruomei was much more flexible than Ruixue in this regard. After thinking for a moment, she guessed Ye Qinglan's intention: "Miss, do you want to let the master know about Hong Kong through a letter from home?"
Xiao’s situation?”
The real backer of Hung Hom is Ye Chengli, and the person Xue is most worried about is also Ye Chengli. Therefore, as long as Ye Chengli shows more care and toughness, Xue will be more hesitant and dare not take action at will. In this way, Ruomei's life can also be
Slightly better.
Ye Qinglan glanced at Ruomei approvingly. Although Ruomei was silent on weekdays, when something happened, she was much smarter than Ruixue and others.
As the saying goes, it takes a thousand days to be a thief. There is no one who can guard against thieves for a thousand days. If we want to solve the dilemma of Hongxiao, the root cause lies with Xue. The only person who can influence Xue is Ye Chengli.
However, the letter she sent home will definitely not be hidden from Mrs. Xue. She might even stop the letter and check it, so think carefully about how to word it...
Ye Qinglan sat at the desk and thought for a long time before writing.
The original owner's handwriting is not very good, which is a shame. She didn't practice much, and the handwriting she wrote is at the level that people can understand. Compared with Gu Xinian's beautiful handwriting, it is really a day.
Even compared to Gu Xiyu and Ye Qingning, they are still far behind.
Ye Qinglan was very calm about this point. She was used to using thin pens, but she was not used to using brushes at all. It was good to be able to write, but how could she expect to see it well?
After the family member finished writing, Ye Qinglan personally sent the letter to Mr. Xue. There was a servant in Changyuan Bo's Mansion who was responsible for delivering the letter, but only Mr. Xue in Hefeng Courtyard had the qualification to call the servant to deliver the letter. So, this
The letter must pass Xue's test.
Mr. Xue glanced at the thin envelope, and then looked at Ye Qinglan with a half-smile: "Why did you suddenly think of writing a letter to your father?"
Ye Qinglan responded calmly: "Report to mother. My father is in office alone, and my daughter is worried about her father's daily life. So I want to write a letter to ask. My daughter is worried that the wording is inappropriate, so I would like to ask my mother to help me check it out."
She acted so openly and upright, but Xue hesitated. It was just a letter to the family. If she opened it and checked it in front of Ye Qinglan, wouldn't it be a mouthful?
Ye Qinglan didn't say a word, just stood aside and waited obediently.
Mr.
Ye Qinglan can guarantee that after she leaves, Ms. Xue will definitely open the letter and read it again. However, it doesn't matter no matter how carefully Ms. Xue reads it. She just casually mentioned "red gauze" in the letter, and she didn't say a word about it.
To mention other things, I only said that Hongxiao was raising her baby with peace of mind every day. Even if Mrs. Xue was dissatisfied, she would not withhold her letter just for such a simple sentence.
As for Ye Chengli, who is far away in Zhengzhou, when he sees the name of Hongxiao, he should mention a few words when writing a reply! By then, no matter how unhappy Mr. Xue is, he will be more cautious. Hongxiao will also be safer.
.
She has done everything she can. I hope Hongxiao can take good care of herself and give birth to her child safely!
After returning to the house, Guiyuan came over excitedly and reported: "Miss, the servants have packed their luggage and packages and are ready to leave at any time."
Ye Qinglan smiled and nodded.
Ye Qingning had someone send a letter before. He said that he had discussed it with his parents-in-law and would take her to Zheng Guogong's mansion in two days. Counting the days, it happened to be today. With Ye Qingning's impatience, he must have sent a carriage in the morning.
.
As expected, after waiting in the room for less than half an hour, a boy came over from the concierge and announced: "The carriage from Duke Zheng's residence is already waiting at the door. Please come over early, Miss Ten."
The maids are very excited. In the calm life, even a little ripple will make people excited. What's more, this time they are visiting the Duke Zheng's mansion. Depending on the relationship between the young lady and the sixth lady, she might be able to stay there.
How long did it take to come back?
The two youngest, Ying'er and Guiyuan, put their heads together and talked quietly, laughing cheerfully from time to time.
Ye Qinglan was infected by their excitement, and the corners of her lips raised happily.
First, she said goodbye to Mr.
Sentence: "...Sixth cousin is the most partial. She only invites you to be a guest. She also doesn't invite me and eighth cousin..."
...Except for being a little friendlier towards her, Ye Qingfu's temperament is the same as before and has not changed at all.
Ye Qinglan didn't defend herself, she just kept smiling. After Ye Qingfu talked a lot, she finally shut up.
After leaving Hefeng Courtyard, Ye Qinglan went to Luomei Courtyard again.
Mrs. Zheng was indeed waiting for her. After seeing her, she smiled and warned: "Sister Lan, when you go to Zheng Guogong's mansion this time, you should talk to Ning'er more. She is probably really bored, so she goes there shamelessly.
Please beg your parents-in-law to let you come as a guest." After a pause, he sighed: "Over the years, she has been spoiled by me and always does things willfully. Fortunately, her parents-in-law love her and agreed without saying a word.
.If it were anyone else, it would be strange for a newly married bride to ask her natal sister to accompany her, so as not to cause gossip."
Listen, it also reminds her not to cause trouble for Ye Qingning. Zheng's rank is much higher than Xue's.
Ye Qinglan responded hurriedly and respectfully: "Auntie, please rest assured that I will act with caution and will never cause trouble to Sixth Sister."
Mrs. Zheng nodded with satisfaction when she saw that Ye Qinglan was so transparent and smart. To be honest, she naturally knew that it was not appropriate for Ye Qingning to invite Ye Qinglan to be a guest in such a big way. But she also really felt sorry for Ye Qingning. From a carefree boudoir
Miss, when you marry as a woman, you must have a lot of discomforts. She eagerly looks forward to her little sister to accompany you. How can she, a mother, disagree with this.
Mrs. Zheng calmed down and said with a smile: "However, you are Ning'er's natal sister, and you are here to be an honorable guest. You don't need to be too careful, lest you be looked down upon by the servants of Zheng Guogong's house. You have always been smart.
Smart, you should understand the right balance between things without me telling you."
Of course I understand. In general, it is necessary not to be too high-profile and cause the displeasure of Zheng Yun and his wife, but also not to be too low-key so that the servants can make fun of the shabby young lady of Changyuan House. Even Ye Qingning was looked down upon.
In short, everything depends on Ye Qingning's situation.
To be honest, Mrs. Zheng is not an easy person to get along with, and she doesn't have much affection for Mrs. Zheng. But because of Mrs. Zheng's wholehearted care for Ye Qingning, Ye Qinglan decided not to mind Mrs. Zheng's selfishness.
Mrs. Zheng felt much better when she saw that Ye Qinglan responded obediently. After a few more words, she finally let her go.
As soon as he left Luomei Courtyard, he met Cui Wan. Behind Cui Wan was a group of wet nurses and maids with four children. The atmosphere was naturally lively and lively.
"You are going to Zheng Guogong's mansion!" Cui Wan stopped naturally and joked with a smile: "I have only been back for a few days, and you are going to be a guest again. It's really enviable!"
Ye Qinglan pursed her lips and smiled. Such frequent and high-profile visits out of the house were really eye-catching. The benefits were obvious. She, a concubine of a third wife, was still living a comfortable life even if she was not welcomed by her aunt, Mrs. Xue. Uncle Chang Yuan
No one in the house dared to look down upon her, and all the powerful maids and women were very respectful when they saw her.
After chatting casually for a few words, Ye Qinglan said goodbye to Cui Wan.
The carriage of Duke Zheng's Mansion had been waiting at the door for a long time. A familiar figure was standing beside the carriage waiting. He came up to him from a distance and saluted Ye Qinglan with a smile: "I have seen Miss Ten."
Ye Qinglan was a little surprised: "Zhixia, why are you here?"
Zhixia pursed her lips and smiled and said, "Miss, I specially ordered my servant to pick up Miss Ten. It just so happened that I could chat with Miss Ten to relieve her boredom on the way." This was naturally Ye Qingning's thoughtfulness.
Ye Qinglan's heart suddenly felt warm.
The maids were also very familiar with Zhi Xia. After getting on the carriage, they started chatting. It was really lively! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. You
