Chapter 11 Aunt's Visit
In the early morning of the second day, Ye Yunshui dressed up and went to the old lady's house to say hello. Before he entered the courtyard, he heard noises and laughter from the old lady's middle courtyard. He didn't know until he sent someone to ask. , it is the second master who is performing a shadow puppet show for the old lady, the funny old lady doesn't need breakfast, just clap her hands and praise.Ye Yunshui said heartily: The second master's family did not hesitate to play a buffoon in order to coax the old lady. They really worked hard, but they didn't know that there was a bit of pure filial piety in it.

Ye Yunshui slowed down the pace of entering the courtyard, and waited until the laughter in the main room had almost subsided before allowing someone to lift the curtain to go in, "Greetings to grandma, mother well, second uncle and second aunt well."

"Yun Shui came late today. I didn't see your second uncle playing shadow puppets just now, but it's so funny." The old lady smiled and asked the maid to move a chair for her, and she could see that the old lady was really serious this morning. happy.

Ye Yunshui sat down with a smile and said nothing, she could wait outside the courtyard to avoid seeing her second uncle playing a buffoon, and she couldn't reply to the old lady's words, what did she say?The old lady was happy to say that the second uncle performed well. The second uncle and the first cousin probably thought that she was secretly mocking them, and Mrs. Ye Zhang thought that her heart was for outsiders, so it was not true at all.

"His second uncle is used to these folk tricks when he is away all the year round, he is not as old-fashioned as his elder brother." Seeing that Ye Yunshui did not say a word, Ye Zhang answered in a strange manner.

"Sister-in-law's absurd praise." The second master bowed his hands and thanked him, but Ye Yunshui admired his determination to listen to everything as a good word.

"It's done, I know that you are trying to make my old lady happy, so hurry up, you are still making noise like a child at such an old age, and you are not afraid of children laughing at you for being old and disrespectful, even your daughter-in-law will follow." You ate the melons." Huamei lightly comforted the old lady, maybe she laughed too much just now, but now she coughed a few times.

"If I can make the old lady smile, I will give up my face." Ye Jiangshi covered her mouth and smiled lightly, but her eyes were crooked, like two and a half crescent moons, very cute.

Ye Yunshui saw Ye Xiaoyun behind Ye Jiangshi pursing his lips and smiling, and Cui Lu beside the old lady kept secretly looking at him with her eyes.

"Is the boss not at home today?" The old lady swept around the house, but Ye Chongtian was the only one missing.

"Returning to the old lady, he was called into the palace before dawn, saying that a nobleman was ill." Mrs. Ye Zhang glanced coldly at Mrs. Ye Jiang, and continued, "The nobles in the palace all rely on you. He, this summon does not distinguish between morning and evening, he has to go when he says to go, even if it is Xiu Mu, he will not miss it."

"Brother has worked hard these years." The second master can speak, Ye Jiangshi remained calm, and the old lady just sighed, "Yes, the boss has suffered a lot of grievances for the family these years, the nobles in the palace But it’s all something you really want to share? Forget it, it’s late today, and your breakfast is cold when you go back to the yard, so let’s use it at my place today.”

Perhaps because the old lady said something fair, Ye Zhang's face was not as ugly as before. He accompanied the old lady to the dining room, turned around and saw Ye Yunshui following, and said, "I will send someone to my natal house in the morning. My niece's Gong Nai invited her here, and she will arrive in the next afternoon. Gong Nai is the teaching nun enshrined by my mother's family. She is best at teaching rules. Many wealthy families in Nirvana have invited her to teach. You only need to come here sooner or later to show your face, and you don’t have to go to my place, just learn the rules from the nanny, and you are about to get married, and your wedding dress should be embroidered as soon as possible.”

Ye Yunshui didn't expect Ye Zhang's actions to be so fast, and she was even more happy not to go out in the yard, "I listen to my mother for everything, where is the second sister?"

Perhaps Ye Zhang had forgotten that Ye Qianru also wanted to be a classmate, and if she didn't follow her now, she would have to pay for Ye Qianru alone. The next red envelope is very expensive for the nuns in this palace. After a little thought, Mrs. Ye Zhang made up her mind: "I'll let her go to your yard later."

Ye Yunshui nodded in response, and she didn't say much when she achieved her goal. She didn't think that she would be put on little shoes when it came to learning the rules, but she would be happy to have Ye Qianru suffer with her. What good intentions can Mrs. Zhang have? Firstly, she is afraid that she will be ashamed if she does not understand the rules when she gets married, and secondly, it is just to show the strength of her natal family to the second room.

Because the second master's family ate breakfast for half an hour longer than usual, the steward of the yard came to report the income and expenditure of this month's mansion to Mrs. Ye Zhang, so the old lady dispersed.

Ye Yunshui went back to Jingsi Residence and asked Chunyue to call Mrs. Zhang. Mrs. Zhang used to be an embroiderer. Ye Yunshui was not interested in embroidering wedding dresses by herself. She planned to assign this job to Mrs. Zhang. She wasn't in that good mood, not to mention she knew embroidery needles, but the embroidery needles didn't know her. When she saw Chunyue embroidering purses in the temple, she used them to make gestures for a while. Unfortunately, this work really required great patience. She There really isn't one.

As soon as I handed over the work, someone came from the courtyard, a little maid whom Ye Yunshui had never met, and answered, it was Aunt Chen from the west courtyard who wanted to see the eldest girl, and asked if she had time, Ye Yunshui was puzzled, she In this memory, I have no impression of the three aunts in the mansion, and this aunt Chen has never been mentioned before, why did she suddenly find her today?
Ye Yunshui had doubts but couldn't refuse her, so he asked Chunyue to follow and asked Aunt Chen to come over and talk.

"Mother Su, who is this Aunt Chen? Why haven't I heard of it before?" Ye Yunshui can only ask the nanny about the origin of Aunt Chen first, so that she won't know anything and say something inappropriate when the time comes. Offend people again.

Mother Su was startled, then relieved, "It's normal for the eldest girl not to remember her. She hasn't been out and about often these years. She is your biological mother's dowry maid, and later lifted up her aunt. She was pregnant once, but your biological mother died of illness. At that time, she had a miscarriage, and I heard that it was still a boy, after the master continued to marry his current wife, she lived in seclusion and seldom showed up in front of people."

Ye Yunshui didn't expect Aunt Chen to have such a relationship with him, so she asked Mama Su to recomb her hair and put it into a very elegant bun. Mama Su opened the dowry box and picked out something for her to wear on her head. Ye Yunshui saw the lump of blood The jade unicorn pendant was left behind by the person she rescued back then, Ye Yunshui suddenly thought of those deep eyes, and his heart trembled.Ask Mother Su to put the jade pendant in another place. Although the identity of the person is unknown, but this thing is extraordinary, it is better not to keep it on the surface.

While speaking, Aunt Chen entered the courtyard, and Ye Yunshui went out to welcome her in. She was a 35-year-old woman, and she looked good when she was young, but now she was wearing a dark-colored jacket, and there was no special expression on her face or hair. It looks a little pale due to modification.

"Hi, young lady." Aunt Chen's voice was very soft, with a touch of sugary sweetness, the only woman among the aunts who was pregnant with the master's child must have been favored when she was young.

"Auntie Chen is well, come in and talk. I should have asked Auntie Chen to come and walk around a long time ago, but I neglected it." Ye Yunshui let Auntie Chen into the room and let Chunyue serve good tea.

Aunt Chen picked up the tea bowl, took a sip and put it down softly, but her words were plain and indisputable, "I often make people look at the big girl secretly, and I dare not walk around casually these years. It's embarrassing, I don't have to implicate you, big girl."

"What are you talking about? Since you are my biological mother's dowry and your aunt, you are my elder. I should pay you for it, but I want you to think about it first and come to see me." Ye Yunshui said clearly She was getting closer, but she kept looking at Aunt Chen in her heart.

"Actually, there is nothing special about it. When I heard that the eldest girl is going to leave the cabinet, I asked someone to pack up some things for the eldest girl to add makeup. It is not as good as what the mansion prepared. It is also my heart. It just so happened that I also found a reason to go and see the eldest girl myself, and I will feel relieved after that." Aunt Chen said that her voice was a little choked up at the end, and she wiped her eyes with a veil, "Look at me, what are you doing?" Aunt Chen pointed to the maid serving beside her, "Give the things to the eldest girl to have a look."

It was a burden, and on it was a treasure chest, which was opened layer by layer, but there were hidden compartments one after another. Each compartment was filled with jewelry, such as pearl hairpins, jade, emeralds, crystals, red sapphires, and two sets of jewellery. Pure gold head and face jewelry, and five goldfishes in the bottom box.

Ye Yunshui was horrified, and then saw that under the package was a set of red wedding dress embroidered with pure gold thread, opened it to see the glittering gold, Ye Yunshui's eyes hurt from the sway!

"Aunt Chen, you are..." Ye Yunshui was a little angry. She didn't know that she was married as a concubine, so why would she give a bright red gold silk wedding dress?Isn't this embarrassing yourself!

Aunt Chen quickly explained, "Miss, don't get me wrong, I have absolutely no other intentions. This wedding dress was left by your biological mother back then, and these jewelry were also rewarded to me by her back then. I am also borrowing flowers to offer Buddha today. Things are returned to their original owners.”

Ye Yunshui put down her things, feeling mixed emotions in her heart. This Aunt Chen hadn't visited her for more than ten years. When she came, she gave away her biological mother's relics, as well as the red and gold silk wedding dress worn by her biological mother. Her slap If you don't fight, you will fight!Didn't this tell Ye Yunshui that her maternal ancestral family came from a famous family, and ordinary people can't keep up with the royal relatives. Her biological mother would never want her daughter to be a child and marry such a dude.

Ye Yunshui always felt that these things were hot, and she felt irritated for no reason.

The atmosphere in the room dropped suddenly, Aunt Chen saw Ye Yunshui's silent and tense face and knew that she understood her intentions, "Since the things have been delivered, I will go back first. Come to marry me."

"Mama Su, send Aunt Chen off for me." Ye Yunshui sent Mama Su to give them a chance to talk. The person who served her biological mother before was a little closer than others.

Aunt Chen left, but left Ye Yunshui with a problem. Could it be that she didn't want to wear a golden silk red wedding dress and marry the man in her heart?But the former Ye Yunshui threatened her with her life, so it was useless. Although she was a soul from another place, what could she do as a weak woman in this deep house?Self-protection is a problem, what can I use to fight Ye Zhang?Why fight Ye Zhangshi?Do you only take the name of the eldest daughter of the Ye Mansion?Ye Yunshui shook his head with a wry smile, and at this time Mama Su had already returned.
