When Concubine Shi walked into Mingyue Garden, Ye Fan and the others were having a bonfire party in the back garden.
Zhao Mingyue, Song Hongyan, and Qi Qingmei were talking softly while smearing sauces on various foods.
Ye Fan, Ye Tiandong and Wei Hongchao also leaned together and tumbled over the sizzling roasted whole lamb.
The three little girls sang and danced around the campfire.
There was also a little girl who was drooling and locked on a leg of lamb.
The atmosphere was indescribably warm and harmonious.
This happy scene of family happiness gave the concubine Shi, who had always been cold and cold, a touch of softness.
Although the concubine has a high and powerful position, she has rarely experienced this kind of warmth in the past twenty years.
She was respectful to the old master, and her senior sisters were respectful to her.
Even Qi Wuji and the other seven old kings were polite to her.
She has enjoyed countless high-level respect and support, but she lacks this kind of down-to-earth happiness.
Having a mother is actually a very happy thing, right?
Concubine Shizi was thinking...
"Saint, good evening, why are you here?"
At this time, Song Hongyan had already seen Concubine Shizi walking in, and stood up with a smile to greet her:
"It's better to come early than to come by chance. Come and have something to eat together."
She pulled the master's concubine to the campfire: "It is better to have fun alone than to have fun together."
Wei Hongchao and Qi Qingmei also raised their heads after hearing this, and were shocked to see Concubine Shizi appear.
In my memory, Concubine Shi almost never set foot in the Mingyue Garden except for a few visits when she was treating Zhao Mingyue.
And she has always clearly stated her support for Ye Forbidden City.
Ye Fan was also shocked, why did this woman come here? Is she going to file a complaint?
But seeing that there was no whip in her hand, Ye Fan felt a little more at peace.
"Holy girl, come here and sit here."
Ye Tiandong and Zhao Mingyue warmly welcomed Concubine Shi.
They don't have a deep relationship with the Saint, and they don't usually have much contact with each other, but today because the four little girls were happy, they didn't mind having fun together.
Nangong Youyou also stared at the basket in Concubine Shi's hand and shouted happily: "Welcome beautiful sister, welcome beautiful sister!"
"Thank you Master Ye, Mrs. Ye, but no need!"
Concubine Shi's face was a little embarrassed. She was not good at words and could not refuse everyone's enthusiasm coldly:
"I came here tonight to find Ye Fan. I have something I want him to help with."
"By the way, these are the ginseng fruits that Cihangzhai just picked this year. I gave them to Master Ye and Mrs. Ye to try. I hope you like them."
Concubine Shi also placed a basket in front of Ye Tiandong and Zhao Mingyue.
There is a basket full of ginseng fruits inside. Each one is not only huge, but also crystal clear in color, giving people a refreshing and delicious look.
"ah--"
Ye Tiandong and Zhao Mingyue were even more surprised when they saw this.
They all know this ginseng fruit, which is one of the treasures of Cihangzhai Zhenshan.
Eating it will not make you immortal, but it can cleanse the body of impurities and promote blood circulation, and has a very good detoxification effect.
This is also the reason why Cihangzhai women look three to five years younger than their peers.
Cihangzhai treasures this very much.
Every year almost every year they are given to Ye Tiandong and Lao Qiwang on a per capita basis.
Even Ye Tianci and Wei Hongchao didn't have a share.
Now that Concubine Shi came directly with a basket, how could she not surprise Ye Tiandong, Zhao Mingyue and the others?
Is this the rhythm of Cihangzhai’s show of goodwill?
Afterwards, Zhao Mingyue and the others took another look at Mark.
There is no doubt that this is the credit of Ye Fan for easing the relationship.
"Here I go, what treasures do you think you have? Just a few ginseng fruits."
At this time, Ye Fan stepped forward to take a glance, but he hummed unhappily:
"Why don't you bring a few snow eels when you come here to eat and drink?"
His favorite is Cihangzhai snow eel. Not only is the meat quality excellent, but the soup is also white and attractive.
Concubine Shi had a dark look on her face: "This year's snow eels haven't grown up yet."
"It's okay, I can make do with it even if I'm young."
Ye Fan picked up a ginseng fruit and ate it with a click: "Brother, I will catch ten or eight of them tomorrow, or I will spank you."
Wei Hongchao and Qi Qingmei were stunned when they heard this.
Is Ye Fan too courageous?
The last time the auction was held, the saint was raped, but this time it turned into teasing?
The two of them quickly moved away, fearing that the saint would go crazy and beat Ye Fan to the point of vomiting blood, which would be bad if they were splashed with blood.
Ye Tiandong and Zhao Mingyue also looked helpless. Son, this is a saint, please respect her, okay?
At this moment, Ye Fan added:
"By the way, arrange a good courtyard for me in Cihangzhai tomorrow. As the first male disciple, I should have my own place to live."
While talking, he also threw the ginseng fruit to Nangong Youyou and others to enjoy themselves.
Concubine Shi was almost furious: "You——"
"Ye Fan, how could you do this to the saint?"
Song Hongyan ran over and slapped Ye Fan on the head:
"How can you have such an attitude when someone is kind enough to send you something?"
"You still have people call you senior brother. Which one is younger for you to become a saint or a saint?"
"Besides, I'm just a guest, so it's very rude of you to treat the saint like this."
"Mom and dad are embarrassed to whip you, so I will whip you!"
She 'reprimanded' Ye Fan angrily, and then grabbed Ye Fan's ears: "Quickly apologize to the saint."
Ye Fan repeatedly begged for mercy: "Wife, let go, let go, it hurts, it hurts!"
Seeing this scene, Concubine Shi was extremely happy and felt very happy, and she also had a better impression of Song Hongyan.
Amidst the laughter of the crowd, Song Hongyan hummed: "Hurry up and apologize to the saint!"
Ye Fan looked at his concubine: "Um, little junior sister, I'm sorry, I won't eat snow eel anymore. This ginseng fruit is very good."
The master's concubine hummed: "Call me senior sister!"
Ye Fan protested: "Tsk, I am the number one male disciple, how can I be suppressed by you..."
Song Hongyan shouted into his ear: "Call Senior Sister!"
"Okay, okay, listen to my wife."
Ye Fan looked helpless: "Saint, senior sister, is it okay? Tell my wife to stop!"
"Saint, do you really want to whip him?"
Song Hongyan smiled at the concubine: "You don't have to give me face. If you want to beat him, just beat him!"
"No need, he realizes his mistake, just let him go."
Concubine Shizi said to spare Ye Fan, but when she picked up the ginseng fruit and blocked Ye Fan's mouth, she secretly poked and pinched him.
"ah--"
Ye Fan suddenly screamed, but the sound was blocked, so it didn't sound too sad.
When Concubine Shi saw Ye Fan's expression, she felt unprecedentedly happy.
The frustration and depression that Ye Fan brought to her were swept away.
This also made her feel more fond of Song Hongyan.
"Okay, if you say let him go, I won't deal with him."
Song Hongyan let go of Ye Fan with a smile, and then enthusiastically held Concubine Shi's arm:
"Holy girl, come, let's have something to eat together. No matter how important it is, we won't miss this little time."
"We have prepared several kinds of sauces today. They are delicious when applied on corn and eggplant."
"Come here and have a taste..."
"In addition, let me tell you again, if Mark makes you unhappy in the future, just tell me directly and I will deal with him for you..."
She familiarly pulled the concubine to the campfire, allowing her to join the big family without any pressure.
Concubine Shi's original embarrassment and hesitation fell apart amidst Song Hongyan's conversation and laughter, and there was a hint of desire to blend in with everyone on her face.
And cleaning up Ye Fan made the concubine feel like she had found a rare ally, a rare common topic...
Soon, under Song Hongyan's greeting, the concubine Shizi dropped her usual cold mask, and started chatting and laughing with Ye Tiandong and the others...
"My parents, the beauty and the saint bullied me, and my waist was pinched and turned red!"
Ye Fan looked depressed, got up and ran to Ye Tiandong and Zhao Mingyue, pitifully begging for justice.
Ye Tiandong and Zhao Mingyue discussed the roasted whole lamb in front of them: "Is this sheep from the wolf country or Mongolia?"
Ye Fan ran to Qi Qingmei again: "Mr. Qi, someone bullies your master, it's time for you..."
Qi Qingmei turned around and got together with Song Hongyan and Shi Zifei: "Holy girl, the little whip needs to be dipped in pepper water to be lethal..."
Ye Fan looked at Wei Hongchao: "Brother, let's say something..."
Wei Hongchao said weakly: "Actually, I died seven days ago. What you see is my soul. If you have something to do, burn the paper..."
Ye Fan turned his head and looked at Nangong Youyou and the others: "Children..."
"Get ready, sing!"
Nangong Youyou waved her hands to the three little girls:
"The golden phoenix brings good luck, the boss will make a fortune, congratulations to the beautiful boss on starting a business..."
