ain have the opportunity for a life of long years. 。As for the spiritual power that once vanished, it is not impossible to recover. 。"But this is contradictory!" Ye Wenyan was very conflicted, "On o...I couldn't sleep for long this night and it was light soon. 。The servants in the courtyard had grown accustomed to their master's routine. Though they didn't know he was never there at night, they did know he disliked waking up early in the morning. 。So the servants also got up a little later, moving about lightly and even delaying their time for cleaning the courtyard, just to let their master sleep a while longer. 。But in today's environment, it's better to be quiet and at peace than to try to sleep more. 。Though the materials used in a traditional

cot are carefully selected, they still may not be as comfortable as modern latex mattresses.

When I woke up at half past five, I saw Xiangdong already by my bedside. As soon as she opened her eyes, she said to me, "The old lady of the Xiao family has arrived and is talking with our old lady in Fulu Courtyard!" She reacted for a while before she understood, "The mother of the second mistress" "Yes," 。"Xiang Dong nodded, "Sister, these days I've been busy with things outside the house, leaving early and returning late. There are some things in the house that I haven't had time to tell you" 。Our two elders at home have decided to marry a concubine, and the one they're going to bring into the house is his mistress who he has been raising outside for many years. 。Not only does she have a daughter the same age as her third sister, but that woman is also pregnant now. 。"

Ye Wen was not surprised by this, because Granny had told her about it long ago. It was the dark guard monitoring Xichun who discovered it

Because of this, Xichun even had a fight with Ye Jingheng. But Xiandong only found out recently, and recently Ye Jingheng has also made this matter public, putting it on the surface. 。Xiang Dong helped her to her feet, while pulling at the tent curtain she said: "Perhaps the Second Master thinks it's best to get ahead of things first, you know. He went to the Xiao family yesterday and caused a scene, pointing out several major faults of the Second Mistress..." 。This indictment not only mentions Sanjie's promiscuity and moral depravity, but also brings up the affair between Ershaoye and Sandai. It even states that he has no hope of passing on his lineage, which is the biggest offense... 。The Second Madam can no longer bear children, so if he doesn't take a concubine wife, there will be no legitimate children in the future. As the head of the General's Mansion, having no son is equivalent to the Night family having no heir. How could he face the ancestors of the Night family Night Wenyan nodded when he heard this, "This matter was done quite cleverly." 。“Yes! The old gentleman himself thinks so too. He even told the grandmother and second madam right after he came back.” 。Many people heard it, word of mouth spread it, and it reached us. 。I reckon that the Xiao family might have been subdued by the second master yesterday, and they felt they were in the wrong, so they didn't come to cause a commotion directly. 。Then, Zhui'er also entered the room, holding a basin of water to wash Ye Wenyan's face. 。“Maybe it was just a dream. I dreamed about how to retort, how to answer the old master’s words, so I came here today to act tough!” Zhuai'er laughed, “Although the second master is annoying, after hearing what he said about going to Xiao’s residence, I still find it quite satisfying.” 。The Second Madam never gave birth to a good child, and she doesn't let people live in peace!

The maid even stuck her tongue out here, "Sister, don't tell the Second Young Master that this servant said it, I didn't say it to him..." 。" It doesn't matter who she was running towards. Night Wind would not pay much attention, nor did he particularly care whether Night Scene married his equal wife or not. 。That was the second branch of the Ye family, it wouldn't have much impact on her life after all. 。It's just that she wants to avenge the original owner, but I don't know if things will become more complicated because there's a new mistress in the house. 。"Who's in Fulu Courtyard at the moment" she asked Xiangdong, "Can the Old Madam get up now Has her morning and evening routine also been restored" Xiangdong nodded, "She can get up now, and her morning and evening routines have also been restored." 。Second Madam only paid her respects and left, ignoring how the old madam felt about it. 。But this anger has to go somewhere, so whenever our mistress and elder sister come around, the old madam will say a few extra things. Once she even kept them until lunchtime. 。" Ye Wenyan all laughed, "There's a saying, isn't there Three times don't go up the roof and pry it off! I suppose these days Fu Lu Courtyard hasn't been haunted, so some people think this matter is over. " 。“Come on, let's go and pay respects to grandma,” she said, fastening the last buckle of her waist sash. 。Today, Fu Luyuan is very lively. Old Madam Xiao personally went to the door and sat beside Old Madam Ye. 。There was a table between the two of them, with an old woman on one side. This meal felt a bit like the days when Aunt Grandma Tang Shi was still around. 。Below, both Ye Minghe and Xiao Shubi were present. Liu Shi and Ye Chulian were also there, as was Xi Chun. Even Ye Fei Zhou was sitting on the side. 。

The people on the big house's side had also come, but they just bowed their heads and ate tea, like guests, not saying a word. >>> 。The long-suffering Ye Lianmian, who had lost an arm, was here today as well. He seemed to be in good spirits, but he had a white cotton bandage wrapped around his missing arm and hanging from his neck, which looked rather comical. 。Xiao Shubi's face was the worst it had ever been right now, almost squeezing his handkerchief to pieces with his trembling hands, his body shaking slightly. 。Unfortunately, the husband sitting beside me seemed oblivious to this, and even wore a look of disdain. 。When Ye Wen arrived, he saw Old Madam Xiao sitting straight at the top, looking down at the bustling night scene with a cold stare. In an aloof tone, she said: "At first, our Ningguo Houfu married our eldest daughter to you. For you, a second son of a General's Mansion, it was already a great favor." 。How, now that you've become the head of the household, do you think my daughter from the Ningguo Hou Mansion is no longer worthy of you You, Ye Jian, when you married Shujun Bai back then, weren't you like this to me old woman... 。" Ye Wenyan slipped to Ye Qingmei's side and sat down. The servants immediately brought tea. She saw Old Madam Xiao glance over at them, her eyes rolling once. 。If this had happened in the past, Ye Wen could never have gotten used to her habit. 。But today, she is not the main character. Neither she nor her side of the family are the main characters. They're sitting here just to watch the show, not even acting as supporting players. 。So she ignored the attitude of Mrs. Xiao, and instead responded with a very generous smile. 。Old Madam Xiao felt that her smile, coupled with her pale complexion, looked extremely strange. She immediately shifted her gaze and looked at Ye Jian: "Shouldn't your Ye family give this old woman a solution" Ye Jian seemed to feel righteous today, holding his head high and putting on quite the air. 。Upon hearing this from Elder Madam Xiao, he didn't seem flustered. Instead, he calmly asked back, "I wonder, Mother, what year and month was Shu Bai born"

Elder Madam Xiao was taken aback, seemingly not expecting Ye Xing to ask such a question.

She thought the evening gala would be an opportunity for her to recount, once again, those so-called crimes of yesterday. She had even planned how she would respond. But then the conversation took a turn, and people started asking about her daughter's age. 。She felt a little flustered. 。"After so many years of marriage, how can you even ask me such a question" She evaded the question and let out a huff of displeasure. 。Nightview Sheng also let out a snort, "Does your mother-in-law disapprove, or is she afraid Or perhaps even you have forgotten what year and month your daughter was born Of course, after lying for so long, one would even start to believe it themselves." 。Then let me remind my mother-in-law, the birth certificate we exchanged back then, it states that Xiao Shuwai, the legitimate daughter of the Xiao family, was born in May of Sheng Year 2. I was three years old at the time. 。“That’s right,” 。Since you remember it all, why bother asking me I'm not here to discuss that with you today. Don't try to avoid the real issue. 。"It's not taking the easy way out, this is a serious matter that needs to be discussed. 。"The night view insisted on going against Old Madam Xiao to the death, "We'll have a family agreement and exchange betrothal gifts. On the surface, both sides must clearly write down their actual birth dates and months so that we can find someone to calculate compatibility for marriage." 。When the Geng sticker from the Xiao family was first sent over, our Ye family had doubts because when the eldest daughter of the Xiao family was born, the Ningguo Hou Mansion held a grand banquet. Our Ye family attended the banquet and even gave gifts. 。I heard my father and mother talk about this before. That year was clearly the forty-third year of Yun, but why did it become the second year of Sheng in the Gengtie record of the Xiao family" He continued to question Old Madam Xiao, "Although they are both in May, there's a difference of four years! Your Xiao family's eldest daughter is clearly a year older than me. Why, in the Gengtie, she becomes three years younger Should my mother-in-law give the Ye family an explanation for this" Xiao Shubi sat beside him, listening to his words. "Sizzle," the handkerchief in her hand finally tore. 。Mrs. Xiao most hated to see her daughter being bullied. At that time, she flipped her face and said: "Ye Shan! The Ningguo Marquis's Mansion is really blind to have chosen you as our son-in-law!" 。You've been married for nearly twenty years, and now you come to me to settle this score Can you even settle it Yes, our Book White was born in the year of Wu Si San, but so what The dowry agreement was wrongly written back then. Your family had doubts, why didn't you raise them back then, but waited twenty years to bring it up"The table was slammed by Elder Mrs. Xiao, making a loud banging sound, even the teacups on top were shaking. 。Tea and water splashed all over the table. Mrs. Ye Lao moved her arm to the side in disgust, afraid of getting her new clothes dirty. 。Madam Xiao felt more and more justified, even wiping away tears: "Now that your Ye family has great military merit, you look down on our Ningguo Marquis Mansion" 。When you first proposed to my daughter, the eldest of the Xiao family, your mother personally came to our residence and, in front of me, promised... 。She assured me she would treat my daughter well, as her own. Although she's marrying the second son, life will be just as good as if she were married to the eldest. 。Back then, why didn't you point out that Gengtie had written something wrong Why didn't you mention that your family attended the banquet celebrating the birth of Xiao's eldest daughter Now you're bringing up old grudges, are you saying that the Ye family, because of their military merits, doesn't consider my prestigious Hou Mansion worthy of respect"

With that final slam of her hand on the table, she sent the teacup flying to the ground, where it shattered right at Old Madam Ye's feet. 。 Mrs. Ye furrowed her brows and finally spoke —an to be embarrassed, I wanted Ye Wenyan to be humiliated by Wushuang, completely overshadowed!" 。Yes, I want to harm Ye Wenyan. I've always wanted to harm him and never thought about harming Second U...
