There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 1115
[Chapter 1114, Little Prince Xiao’s soft fingers (twenty-six)]
new year is approaching, and the entire capital is immersed in joy.
Due to the lack of roots and contacts in Beijing, compared to other families who kept visiting relatives and friends, the Wang family was a little deserted. No one invited them to be guests, and no one visited them.
Master Wang and his two sons are fine, they can go out every day, and they are not boring, but the female family members are a little bored.
In particular, the mother and daughter of the Wang family are still dreaming of climbing high branches. If they don’t go out to socialize, how can they make friends with high-ranking women and show off their excellence?
In the past two days, Miss Wang’s face has been stinky. When she looked at Miss Wang, some noses were not noses or eyes.
Miss Wang was very angry at her younger sister’s attitude. When the second girl Wang squinted at her again, she asked with a sullen face: “Second sister, why did I provoke you?
” I couldn’t stop, and when Miss Wang asked, I immediately expressed my dissatisfaction in my heart: “The last time we went to the Yan’s house, if the big sister didn’t stop Ye Yueying from going, the Yan family wouldn’t have annoyed us. ”
With the introduction from the Yan family, maybe we have already met the female family members of other families, and there is no need to stay at home and worry.”
“I heard from my elder brother that because Princess Weiyuan returned to Beijing, Yan The family held several banquets, and many concubines, concubines and high-ranking officials went there.”
Miss Wang’s face was so ugly that she sarcastically said, “Second sister, your ability to shirk responsibility is really good. Is it my idea not to let Ye Yueying go?” The
second girl Wang retorted: “Mother and I didn’t mean that, if you didn’t mention it, big sister, how would we think of not letting Ye Yueying go?” Miss
Wang was so angry No, seeing that Mrs. Wang didn’t stop her younger sister, it can be seen that she thought so, and she was so wronged that her eyes turned red.
If it wasn’t for the mother and younger sister’s consent, she alone would have stopped Ye Yueying, but now that it’s all over, all the faults are on her.
Second Miss Wang couldn’t bear Miss Wang’s way of crying all the time: “Big sister, you are crying more and more now, I just said a few words casually, why are you like this? It seems like I bullied you.” Hearing
this, Miss Wang became even angrier: “You…” Mrs. Wang saw that her two daughters were arguing, so she had to stop her: “Okay, you all calm down, I ’m
not annoying enough, right?”
In Youzhou, during Chinese New Year every year, the Wang family has never been so deserted.
At the end of each year, every day, the family members of officials and local squires come to visit with their annual gifts. She is tired, but she is also really happy, and she enjoys being flattered by others.
But when she came to the capital, let alone flattering her, she was reduced to the point where she was a majestic wife who could only stay at home with nothing to do.
The gap between before and after has already made her feel very uncomfortable. She was even more annoyed when she was reprimanded by the master in front of the children because of Ye Yueying’s matter a few days ago.
Now that the two daughters are still fighting, they are really not considerate and caring at all.
Second Miss Wang curled her lips: “Mother, isn’t my daughter worried about her family and her eldest sister? If we can integrate into the female family circle in the capital, not only will my father not have to worry, but even my eldest sister will have a good future. Miss
Wang sneered and said, “Second sister is getting more and more talkative now. Are you doing it for others? I think you are worried about your own marriage?”
Second Miss Wang didn’t deny it, and said confidently: ” Yes, I am anxious about my own marriage, but this does not prevent me from worrying about my family and you, big sister.” Before Miss
Wang could speak, she continued: “Big sister, next July will be you and Qi The second son’s wedding is coming, if you don’t hurry up, I’m afraid you will really marry back to Youzhou.”
These words made Miss Wang speechless.
When Miss Wang saw her, she raised her eyebrows triumphantly.
Mrs. Wang glared at her little daughter, beckoning her to calm down, and after a moment of silence, she said to herself: “It seems that the Ye family doesn’t have much face with the Yan family. If the Yan family really has an old relationship with the Ye family, last time Ye Yueying didn’t go, and the next few banquets should be invited.” The
second girl Wang nodded in agreement: “Isn’t that right, let us look forward to it in vain, mother, you even sent a lot of good things to that party. Ye Yueying.” She
said with a mocking expression on her face. ”And the little prince Xiao, I thought Ye Yueying was so capable, she could really hook up with the prince, but look these days, has that noble little prince come to talk to
her again?”
It’s just for fun, I guess I’ve seen a lot of gentle and virtuous ladies, and when I suddenly saw Ye Yueying with a face made of ice, my eyes lit up.”
“After the little prince returns to the palace to calm down, his mind will naturally clear up. It’s better for the girl who marries back home to warm her heart, who can stand facing a cold-hearted ice cube all day long.”
Mrs. Wang shook her head and said: “I really hope Xiao Xiaowang really likes Ye Yueying, If Ye Yueying really enters the palace as a concubine, she can also pave the way for your father and two elder brothers, and even the two of you can follow suit.”
Hearing this, Miss Wang and Miss Wang stopped talking, and the two of them She knew that Mrs. Wang was right, but when she thought of Ye Yueying being able to climb up to someone as outstanding as Xiao Wangye, she couldn’t help being jealous.
In the evening, Mr. Wang came back with his two sons smiling.
Mrs. Wang and her two daughters were very happy to learn that the father and son met Mr. Qian, a member of the Ministry of Industry, and his son at the teahouse today.
Second Miss Wang smiled and said: “I knew that with the talents and learning of my father and two elder brothers, even without Ye Yueying and the Ye family, our family can still gain a foothold in the capital.” These
words sounded very pleasing to the ears of Mr. Wang, and smiled. Hehe praised Miss Wang: “By the way, tomorrow the Qian family will have a concert, and I gave me a post. Tomorrow, our family will go to the Qian family to listen to the opera together.”
You can go out as a guest, Mrs. Wang, mother and daughter All three are very happy.
This time, Mrs. Wang did not make a private decision, but directly asked Mr. Wang: “Do you want to take Yueying?”
Hearing this, Mr. Wang fell silent.
The last time my niece didn’t show him any face in front of Xiao Xiaowang and Mr. Wu, it made him feel heartbroken just thinking about it.
Hmph, this niece thinks that she has climbed a high branch, so she doesn’t need the Wang family.
It’s a pity that she seems to think too highly of herself, that little Prince Xiao doesn’t seem to attach much importance to her, or else the Yan family held a banquet during this time, why didn’t they invite her even once?
Also, what is Xiao Xiaowang’s origin, and what is the origin of his niece? Even if the brother-in-law is still alive, the Ye family’s family background cannot reach the palace.
Although it is a bit regrettable that he failed to establish a relationship with the Wangfu, his niece’s attitude made him feel chilled. A niece who is not toward the Wang family, no matter how well married she is, will not help the Wang family. In this case, it is better to let him decide her decision. Marriage, this can also help the Wang family.
“Yueying has a bad temper, so I won’t take her with me, so as not to offend the nobleman.”
Mrs. Wang heard this, and the corners of her mouth immediately rose.
Mr. Wang frowned, his father didn’t notice, but he understood that the reason Mr. Qian took the initiative to say hello to them today was because his father mentioned the visit of Prince Xiao.
Do you want to bring your cousin?
Looking at his mother and two younger sisters who were happily talking about the problem of dressing tomorrow, Mr. Wang thought for a while, and finally chose to remain silent.
It doesn’t matter whether my cousin goes to the Qian’s house or not, so let’s make my parents and sisters happy.
The son and daughter-in-law once again left Ye Yueying to attend the banquet, and Madam Wang was so angry that she trembled all over and slapped her hands and sat down: “Why did I give birth to such a
heartless and ungrateful son!” Persuade the old lady.
After the old lady rested, Ye Yueying left the room, looked at the empty sky, and let out a long breath.
Since ancient times, kindness is the most difficult to repay, because of the kindness of the Wang family’s taking in, no matter how much property the Wang family has embezzled from the Ye family over the years, no matter how badly they have treated her, she has recognized it all.
For the uncle’s family who has no feelings, she has no burden in her heart. When she leaves Wang’s family in the future, no matter whether the future is good or bad, she doesn’t need to worry about it, and she is happy and relaxed.
Now it’s pretty good, and we don’t owe each other!
At this moment, the steward suddenly hurried into the courtyard, and his eyes lit up when he saw Ye Yueying: “Cousin girl, two nuns came to the door, they said they belonged to the third wife of the Yan family, and they came to give our family a New Year’s gift. Quickly inform the old lady that the lady is not at home, so I have to trouble the old lady to meet the guests.” The
Yan family!
Ye Yueying could not help but tighten the jade pendant around her waist, and quickly walked into the room.
The old lady in the room had heard the manager’s words a long time ago, and she was already getting up to put on her clothes. She said as she put on: “Yingying, don’t make people wait for a long time, go and meet you quickly.”
Ye Yueying stood still, thought for a while and said : “Grandmother, it’s just the nanny in charge, so I don’t need to meet you in person.”
Mrs. Wang patted her head hastily when she heard this: “Oh, look at me, I’m so old-fashioned, even though the Wang family can’t compare The Yan family, it’s true that you, a rich lady, should not be allowed to greet your servants.”
Hospitality can be warm, but it can’t be too low-key, or you will definitely be looked down upon.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Wang asked the nurse beside her to go to meet the man with the steward.
When the steward brought the servants of the Yan family over, Mrs. Wang was already sitting upright in the living room, and Ye Yueying was standing beside her in an orderly manner.
The one walking in the front was Yan Liushi, Zhou Jingwan’s nanny in charge, followed by Gu Yu beside Daohua.
“Servant Yan Liu, please greet the old lady, and Miss Ye.”
Gu Yu saluted along with the other maidservants, without introducing herself.
She came here this time mainly to see Miss Ye for the princess.
Mrs. Wang hurriedly asked people to get up, and then pulled Ye Yueying to introduce: “This is the old niece. The family went to the Qian’s house to listen to the opera today, but she insisted on staying at home to take care of me.”
Yan Liushi immediately He praised: “Miss Ye is really filial, the old lady is blessed.”
Just as Yan Liushi and Mrs. Wang exchanged greetings, Gu Yu began to look at Ye Yueying calmly.
Although the prince and concubine have already said that the marriage of the three young princes and sisters is based on what they like, but this does not mean that the prince and concubine don’t care about anything.
After learning that the young prince had a crush on Miss Ye, the prince immediately sent someone to inquire about everything about the Wang family and the Ye family.
This time I came to Wang’s house, nominally under the name of Yan Sanye to take care of the orphan of my old friend, but actually it was the concubine’s intention, and the purpose was to see Miss Ye.
Gu Yu silently observed Ye Yueying beside Mrs. Wang, um… Elegant and elegant, slim and graceful, exuding a touch of coolness all over her body, making her look even more aloof and haughty, she was quite different from the usual ladies.
It’s no wonder that the little prince can be tempted. The most eye-catching thing about Miss Ye is not her appearance, but her cold and arrogant temperament like a snow lotus in Tianshan Mountain.
Ye Yueying noticed Gu Yu’s sizing up, and silently glanced at her a few times, and at a glance, she could see that her demeanor was different from that of ordinary servants.
This is not an ordinary nanny, and the aura of an ordinary nanny would not be so strong!
Regardless of the fact that the servants who came this time were led by this mammy Liu who was talking to my grandmother, in fact, mammy Liu looked at this mama from time to time.
Ye Yueying had some vague guesses about this person’s identity in her heart, but she didn’t feel nervous or at a loss because of it.
Before the Ye family’s accident, the female family members who came and went to the Ye family were all the family members of the highest officials in Liaodong. She was held by her mother to receive all kinds of female family members when she was still a baby.
And because her father had only one child, she was raised as a boy since she was a child. Not only did she learn to read and understand like a boy, but the family did not avoid her when dealing with all kinds of people and worldly affairs outside.
Even though the other party was a servant of the palace, she didn’t feel much ups and downs in her heart.
Just thinking about the return of King Weiyuan and Princess Weiyuan to Beijing not long ago, Ye Yueying’s expression became a little erratic, she pulled the jade pendant at her waist, thinking about Xiao Moxi.
Did he tell the prince and concubine something, so they returned to Beijing?
Yan Liushi chatted with Mrs. Wang over two cups of tea, and after handing out the annual gifts, they got up and prepared to say goodbye.
Before leaving, Gu Yu opened his mouth and looked at Ye Yueying with a smile: “Miss Ye has just entered Beijing, so she should attend more ladies’ gatherings. My girl will hold a lantern festival in the house on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. I will post a post when the time comes, Miss Ye will be sure.” I want to come.”
Yan Liushi accepted the words with a smile, and looked at Mrs. Wang: “That’s right, it’s time for a girl to go out for a walk at this age. I didn’t see Miss Ye last time. My family is too old. People are very regretful .” Mrs.
Wang smiled and replied quickly: “I must urge her to go.”
Ye Yueying sent the two to the gate of the courtyard, watched the maid escort them out of the gate, and then turned back to the room.
In the room, Mrs. Wang was flipping through the New Year’s gift from the Yan family: “As expected, he is a wealthy family, and this year’s gift is more expensive than other families’.” After saying that, she paused, and looked at Ye Yueying.
“The Yan family sent a New Year’s gift, we should return the gift, Yingying, hurry up and draw up a list, get the money from me, we have to return the gift, we can’t let people think that our family is rude.”
Ye Yueying shook her head . : “Grandma, how can I take your own money? I have money, so don’t worry about it, I will take care of it.”
The apparent assets of the Ye family were taken over by the Wang family, and they are portable Ye Yueying had all the bank notes that Yi brought.
Therefore, Ye Yueying is not short of money.
Mrs. Wang also knew about this, so she didn’t say much.
For the annual gift of the Yan family, Mrs. Wang kept the hard-to-preserve food, and let Xuehua send all the rest to Ye Yueying’s room.
“Your eldest aunt has shallow eyesight and can’t see good things. Since you are the one who returns the gift, you should keep these things.” The
two watch together!
