Chapter 313 Selection

The next day was the day when Ye Yunshui entertained the wives from various prefectures, so he got up early in the morning to dress up, even with Doudou and Shuhui.

The third concubine came to pay her respects early in the morning, knowing that Ye Yunshui was having a banquet today, she left without saying a word.

The invited wives rushed to the "Shuiqing Garden" engraved in the middle of the day, and Ye Yunshui personally went to the gate of the courtyard to greet them.

In addition to Mrs. Zhou, Mrs. Nie and Dong Wanqing who are familiar with Ye Yunshui, there are also Mrs. Shou Yongbo and Mrs. Xiao Fenghou. The latter two wives also brought their young ladies to visit. The deserted "Shui Qing Yuan" became lively.

After meeting each other, Ye Yunshui led the wives to sit in the flower hall, and the maids were busy serving tea and snacks, and after a lot of tossing, the wives were able to chat.

Ye Yunshui had asked Hua'er to burn a few more charcoal basins long ago. Now the room is warm, but there is a suffocating smell. Ye Yunshui sighed helplessly: "... Those who are rushing to the winter can only circle this place. In the house, or you can set up two tables in the yard, enjoy the scenery and drink tea, it is also beautiful!"

"You are the one who enjoys it, and don't worry about anything. In the end, I can come to you today to relax and relax. It's the end of the year, at least I have to be busy until February [-] before I can be free!" Mrs. Xiao Fenghou smiled. He said, this is the one who Ye Yunshui said that Liu Jiaoyue's cousin and third wife died at the canonization ceremony last time.

Dong Wanqing covered her mouth and smiled "chi chi", "Yun Shui is blessed, and he is also very courageous! You don't even think about it, except for Yun Shui, who can live with the cold-faced King of Hades, the son of the world?" Was it a booming time?"

"It's not right to talk nonsense in front of the children!" Mrs. Shou Yongbo's mansion laughed and scolded. After all, she was not very familiar with Ye Yunshui, so she was afraid that she would not be able to get off the stage if she teased her so much.

Before Ye Yunshui could speak, Dong Wanqing retorted: "Madam, don't be annoyed. If you don't believe me, you can ask, among us young ladies who are married at the right age, who didn't immediately hide when the prince was mentioned? Yunshui is blessed, who would have thought that the iceberg would melt!"

"When you come here, start using me as a pawn. See if I turn around and don't tell Shizi about you and sue!" Ye Yunshui would not let Dong Wanqing's teasing go to her heart, and her carefree temper suited Ye Yunshui's Appetite, Dong Wanqing pretended to be frightened to please her, "Don't go, he won't know as much as a woman like me, but it will be miserable for our little duke!"

Wang Ruoran echoed from the side: "Let your mouth be full of huqin, Yunshui is not rare to be as knowledgeable as you, look at it? The feather duster is standing there, and I won't beat you out if you are in a hurry!" Wang Ruoran pointed to the corner and landed on the ground Porcelain bottle, everyone laughed, who didn't know that Ye Yunshui beat the head of Ruirong County?
A group of ladies just covered their mouths and laughed, no one took this matter to heart, and Ye Yunshui didn't hold back, "You like to push people away, and you are not afraid of being laughed at!"

"We are all familiar, who doesn't know who, it's so easy to come to you to relax, is it possible to set the rules?" Dong Wanqing said this with a smile, and she might as well tell Ye Yunshui that this Xiaofenghou Madam Both Mrs. Shou Yongbo and Mrs. Shou Yongbo are reliable.

Mrs. Zhou is the oldest here, so she changed the subject to appease the ladies, "Speaking of which, this year is really busy. After the new year, it will be spring, but there will be another draft! Can your family decide which two young ladies to participate in this year?" ?” This question was asked by Madam Xiaofenghou.

Hearing Mrs. Zhou bring up this topic, Mrs. Xiao Fenghou shook her head with a wry smile, "Speaking of this draft, I'm really upset. The second girl was supposed to participate, but now she can't die. It's a way of tempering her temper. Got it, but the fourth girl who participated in the draft is sick, so we have to let our little five stand on top!" After speaking, Mrs. Xiao Fenghou turned to look at a lady behind her, "This is my fifth lady, Zi Ling .”

Seeing her being mentioned, Zi Ling took two steps forward to congratulate her, then bowed her head and backed away.

Ye Yunshui took a few more glances, he looked like a typical person, oval face, willow eyebrows, face flushed with shame, like a porcelain doll.

Ye Yunshui didn't know much about the draft, but with the little knowledge from the TV series in his previous life, he knew that it was the emperor who added people to the harem, and the emperor selected them again and then gave them away to the princes, palaces and other clans... Ye Yunshui continued to listen Mrs. Xiao Fenghou said about the draft, "...the second girl in our mansion is stubborn, and I think she will be rejected for participating in the draft!"

"My family also has two who are of age this year!" Madam Shou Yongbo turned her head and attracted the two young ladies, "My family's third miss, Manrou, and fourth miss, Qingyun."

The two young ladies also stepped forward to salute, with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, and their gestures were well-behaved.

Ye Yunshui raised his eyes and looked into the old woman. These young ladies came out with their nuns, who were watching coldly to see if there was anything wrong with their gestures. Their faces turned cold, as if they owed hundreds of dollars. like...

Ye Yunshui is well aware of how abominable these nuns who teach manners before the draft are. Even if she has never met them, she has heard of them. They are all greedy for money. It’s okay to be a daughter-in-law. There is a mistress who dare not be too presumptuous , if it's from a concubine, if the mistress is a little bit more wicked, then the young lady's life will be a torment!
"Since you're here today, you don't have to stick to those rules. It's not a problem to learn the rules for a day!" Ye Yunshui smiled and looked at the three ladies in the house. Hearing Ye Yunshui's words, they all looked happy, but Feeling the cold eyes of Mammy Xi, she just smiled and lowered her head.

"Since the concubine Shizi has spoken, I will take a rest today, and the nuns can take a break too. They are exhausted these days!" Mrs. Xiao Fenghou smiled and talked to the nuns. Madam Xi looked at her master's expression, and Mrs. Shou Yongbo also nodded, "I followed Shi Zifei's wishes."

Ye Yunshui instructed Qing He: "Please invite these teaching nuns to the next room to have tea, and ask if Nanny Song is there? Later, ask her to help entertain her, and both Nanny Wu and Nurse Shao can't get away!"

Qinghe responded with a smile, and asked the nuns to leave the room. As soon as the nuns went out, the three ladies immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and felt that this appearance was very embarrassing, so they couldn't help but blush .

"It's all from that time. I've learned how strict the nuns are. These are also the girls who have been pampered by my family since childhood. They are not willing to suffer this crime, but it's okay!" Madam Xiao Fenghou sighed, Dong Wanqing picked up the conversation again, "Is there anyone here who has participated in the draft..." The person who said it was Ye Yunshui, she was gifted by the Queen Mother, which is an exception.

"Your mouth belongs to mosquitoes? If you bite me today, I won't let go!" Ye Yunshui gave Dong Wanqing a white look, and asked Zhou Lingshan's wedding date. Mrs. Zhou replied: "It's fixed on the sixth day of April, thanks to that." I asked the eldest son and the imperial concubine to help!"

"You can't be bullied again this time!" Dong Wanqing urged, Zhou Lingshan's face was small and she almost shed tears, Wang Ruoran hurriedly talked about the child, Ye Yunshui asked the two nuns to bring Shuhui and Doudou, and for a while The ladies turned the topic to the children of each family.

Dong Wanqing took Ye Yunshui to the side to talk alone by asking Ye Yunshui to check her pulse, "You have to pay attention to the draft!"

Ye Yunshui smiled and said: "I understand what you mean, it's so obvious, I'm not a fool!"

"It's so kind to be a donkey's liver and lungs. I heard that the empress favors several families and is currently selecting them. I have seen one of them. She was the daughter of Mrs. Tian, ​​the left servant of the household department, who handed over the handkerchief when the empress was young! The rest are from their own families. Those from the Bo’s House and the Hou’s House are all on the list for this draft.” Dong Wanqing pointed to the side, “These two didn’t want to send the girl here, so bringing the girl here to get close to you is also to let Those who are acquainted with each other know that you are the only one in the eyes of the son, and you are all born by yourself, so you don't want to send it as a display."

Ye Yunshui knew that Mrs. Xiaofenghou and Mrs. Shouyongbo suddenly sent posts to join in the fun, but the queen wanted to use the talent show to send someone to this yard, and this matter had to be carefully considered. Wait until spring begins, let’s talk about this year first!"

Dong Wanqing nodded, "As long as you know it in your heart!"

The table had already been set, and Ye Yunshui invited all the wives to enter the table. Mrs. Zhou talked about Ye Xiaofei with Ye Yunshui. Master Zhou thought that he was still useful, so there was no need to mention it. ... Ye Yunshui sank for a long time before replying: "Take it easy first, he doesn't even have any fame, he can only donate to an official, now my place has become a favorite, with dozens of pairs of eyes staring at him every day, it is inevitable to criticize the Ye family from him No."

"It means you are cautious, let alone you, the prince and concubine, look at those second- and third-rank officials' families, and those who are related to each other are all in charge of the ministries, they are very courageous!" Mrs. Xiaofenghou said. Face disapproving, "You are just giving your younger brother a title, who can hold on to it? Take out all the things in their house and count them, and see who loses face in the end!"

Ye Yunshui just laughed, Mrs. Zhou understood her thoughts, "Now you are the concubine personally appointed by the Queen Mother and the Holy Majesty, who would dare to use the matter of your low birth as an excuse?"

"This matter will be brought up sooner or later. As for Xiao Fei's matter, it will be discussed after a year!" Ye Yunshui changed the subject with a smile, and the wives also followed her to talk about other things.

Apart from joking and gossiping, it's already late afternoon, and they are not the ones who care about their hearts and minds, so they get along happily, and the wives from all the houses are quite a bit unfinished, and they just meet up again after the New Year's Eve.

Ye Yunshui gave each of the three ladies a set of pure gold inlaid red and sapphire head and face jewelry, "... Firstly, it's a gift for a meeting, and secondly, I hope you all go well in this draft!" Those who came from choosing relatives, and some who wanted to enter the palace to be selected, Ye Yunshui could only use the four words "satisfactory".

The three ladies thanked them with a smile. Seeing their age, Ye Yunshui sighed, she was not much older than these three ladies, but her experience was so different... Is it because she was destined to have ups and downs?Or is God destined her to be bitter before sweet?
