Rebirth's Charm

Chapter 146

Zhong Liye asked, "What are you laughing at?"

The sarcasm in Yu Shaoyun's smile was even heavier, "It's easy to laugh at a jealous woman, but it's hard to be a good wife." What she was really laughing at was that at this moment, she finally found out that this man is not something any woman can bear, even if it is the honor and disgrace of the family. The premise is also unbearable.

"You've done a good job, you've covered everything." After leaving this sentence, Zhong Liye left with indifference on his back.

Everything is covered——Are jealous women and virtuous wives all covered?

Yu Shaoyun twitched the corners of his mouth and chuckled, "You think highly of yourself."

She picked up the glass of wine, flipped her hand, and the amber liquid was sprinkled into the coals.

The flames jumped up, whistling.

The dazzling and warm light at that moment reflected her deep and dark eyes and her ice-cold face.

Before the Lantern Festival, Ye Xizhao was thinking about Hsinchu and Xia He's marriage.Now that Chang'an is living a prosperous life outside the Hou's mansion, Hsinchu and Xia He's husbands can't be too mediocre.

Since last winter, she has been paying attention to the two of them.The young servant Yongxin who married Hsinchu in the previous life is now the second-class steward in the mansion.As for Xia He's marriage, it is necessary to discuss with Madam Tai. Madam Tai believed that she could find a good family for Xia He, so she let her go.She finally chose Yang Kuo, who was also a second-class steward in the outer courtyard.

For this kind of thing, Ye Xizhao's plan can only be one moment or another.Although she was reluctant to part with the two servant girls, if she pointed them out to people outside the Hou's mansion, she would not be able to help in time if something happened, and it was far less secure than the one who was right in front of her eyes.Just because of reluctance to give up, they delayed the best marriage for them, and the loss outweighed the gain.

After deciding on a candidate for Xia He at the beginning, Ye Xizhao first went to ask Mrs. Tai for instructions.

Yang Kuo is the son of a family, and no one knows his details and the character of his father's generation better than Mrs. Tai.Hearing what Ye Xizhao said, the old man smiled from the bottom of his heart, "Okay, this marriage couldn't be better."

"Mother agrees." Ye Xizhao breathed a sigh of relief, and then begged, "In the future, I will have to let Xia He come to the mansion to talk and bring her to pay her respects—and Hsinchu is the same. Then you are not allowed to train me."

Mrs. Tai laughed, "You're clever! Your nostalgic disposition is actually the best. How could I say anything about you?"

Ye Xizhao was completely relieved of this, and when the Lantern Festival came, he ordered Feng Lan to help the two of them, using the excuse of watching lanterns on the Lantern Festival, let Hsinchu and Xia He go to meet Yongxin and Yang Kuo respectively.It would be great if the two maids approve of these two people, but if they don't, she will help them choose carefully.After all, in the matter of marriage, not everyone can prove that there is a real relationship by looking good.

When Mrs. Tai heard about it, she couldn't help laughing, "You, a matchmaker, have done your best."

Ye Xizhao said with a smile: "Chang'an and Zhilan only got to know each other after they met. Xia He and Hsinchu should also see if the person they want to marry is compatible with each other."

"It's the same thing."

After Hsinchu and Xia He met with Yong Xin and Yang Kuo respectively, Ye Xizhao asked Feng Lan to check on her a few times, and both of them had no objection, and then they made the decision to settle the marriage.

After this incident, Feng Lan and the other second-class maids and young maids in the main room worked harder and more, and they understood a truth better - as long as they have no other thoughts, the wife will not treat her badly.

During the New Year's Eve, the condition of the third wife's parents has improved a lot, so she doesn't need to run away from her husband's family.

On this day, the third wife specially took a set of spring clothes that she personally made for Sister Xin, went to the main room, sat down and said: "I have an accident at my natal family this time, thanks to the wife and sister-in-law who never gave up, and made me always Taking care of all the affairs of my natal family, the Guan family was safe and sound. I was always grateful in my heart, but I didn’t have any presents to thank. I just sent Mrs. Tai a string of prayer beads that had been consecrated. I hope my sister-in-law will not be disgusted with the spring clothes I made for Sister Xin."

Ye Xizhao accepted the clothes with a smile, thanked him sincerely, and said: "A family, it should be like this. You are doing well, and it is also the third master's blessing."

The third lady said yes.For such a long time, Yu Shaohuan had to go to the Guanfu every day to greet her parents, even out of the responsibility of being a husband, he had already reached his limit - what's more, no one knew better than her whether she was worth it or not He treats each other like this.

Apart from these things, what Ye Xizhao enjoys most now is his daughter's dependence on him, and spends as much time as possible every day to accompany sister Xin.

After the Lantern Festival, Yu Shaoheng began to go to court early as usual, but he was no longer very busy, and he could always return home in time for dinner at noon and evening.

That evening, when he returned to the main room, he heard Feng Lan say that Ye Xizhao was coaxing sister Xin in the east room, he couldn't help smiling and walked over slowly.

Ye Xizhao was leaning on the big kang, teaching Sister Xin how to put together a jigsaw puzzle.

The little Xin was wearing a goose yellow jacket and cotton skirt embroidered with cloud patterns, her elbows and knees were on the ground, her chin was resting on a pair of small hands, and she was seriously watching Ye Xizhao's hands playing with a jigsaw puzzle. A duckling with a focused and naive look.

Ye Xizhao put the assembled jigsaw puzzle in front of Sister Xin, "Have you learned it yet?"

"No." Sister Xin answered honestly, puffing her cheeks in frustration.

"It's okay, I'll learn it slowly." The current Ye Xizhao has unlimited patience with his daughter, "You will be fine when you grow up, and you are not allowed to lose your temper over such things in the future."

"En!" Sister Xin nodded obediently.

Ye Xizhao's voice became more and more gentle: "Mother will tell you a story, okay?"

Sister Xin responded sweetly: "Okay!"

Yu Shaoheng's brows became more relaxed, and he stepped back slowly to the outside, not to disturb them.

In previous years, after the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, it was the busiest time, but this year is different.

The second wife is already a big belly, so the doctor, stable wife, and wet nurse have to be found in advance.

Yu Shaoyun also thought of this matter at this time. He knew that Ye Xizhao was close to the second wife before entering the palace, and he would not be careless about this matter. The famous doctor woman and two stable women were sent to the Hou's mansion.

Ye Xizhao made a special trip to the palace, and talked to Yu Shaoyun for a while in the name of Xie En.

As for the wet nurses, Ye Xizhao and Yu Shaoyun were not able to help them choose them, they just selected a few beautiful ones from the public security bureau, and let the second lady choose them at her own discretion.

The second wife is very grateful for this, and Mrs. Tai is also full of satisfaction for this.

At the end of the first lunar month, first it is Xin's second birthday, then Xiao Xun's son Yu's full moon, and 29 is Yu Shaoheng's birthday.

For Sister Xin's birthday, this time Yu Shaoheng and Mrs. Tai followed Ye Xizhao's thoughts and only invited relatives and friends to the mansion.

On Xiao Xun and Qiao An's side, Ye Xizhao couldn't go there often, but he often ordered people to send some exquisite and interesting toys to Xiao's residence.Knowing that Qiao An was a little weak after giving birth, he ordered people to send the rare and hard-to-find medicinal materials and supplements stored in the mansion, so that Xiao Xun didn't need to order people to search again.

On the day when Brother Yu's full moon came, Ye Xizhao went to Xiao's Mansion. Because of the guests of all kinds, many people took this opportunity to be introduced and tried to make friends with Hou's Mansion.She dealt with it gently on the face, but she couldn't laugh or cry in her heart. It was because of this that she thought that Qiao An would often deal with these people when she was free, and she really didn't know how she could do it patiently.

Joan took time to invite Ye Xizhao into the room to talk.After all, it is a person who has practiced martial arts since childhood. After raising him for a month, his face is rosy and pale, and he has returned to normal.

Ye Xizhao smiled reassuringly, then picked up Brother Yu and looked at him carefully.Because the mansion was full of joyful and noisy atmosphere, Brother Yu was disturbed to sleep even if he was snoozing, and his black and bright eyes rolled around, which was really pleasing.She said softly: "It's so pretty, the eyebrows are just like his father's, the nose and mouth follow you."

Qiao An said: "I just ate and slept all day, and wept when I felt uncomfortable at all-why is it so different from Sister Xin?"

"How can the child look the same?" Ye Xizhao laughed, "It takes effort to cry, Brother Yu is in a hurry to grow up."

Joan then laughed, "You will comfort me."

"That's the way it is." Ye Xizhao smiled, "It's not like you don't know that when Sister Xin was born, she was thin and small, how could she have the strength to cry?" Then he asked, "Master Hou likes it so much. Bar?"

Qiao An's eyes softened a lot, "Yes. He likes children, and he has always liked Sister Xin very much." As he spoke, his smile became stronger, "I said it several times on weekdays, saying that Brother Yu It would be nice if he was born two years earlier, so that he can also look forward to a good marriage for the children of our two families - he is too idle and always thinks about nonsensical things." Afterwards, he smiled embarrassingly She smiled, "Actually, sometimes I think so too. Sister Xin grows up and looks even better than you. Who wouldn't want to have a daughter-in-law like that?"

Ye Xizhao jokingly said: "You guys are thinking far ahead, the child who has just reached the first month of life is already planning for lifelong events for him."

"Of course you are not afraid, but you will be troubled after a few years with the Marquis. Those who propose marriage will have to step through the threshold of the Marquis's residence."

The two women talked for a while before turning back to the flower hall.After dinner, Qiao An saw that those all-pervasive courteous female relatives were still surrounding Ye Xizhao, so he simply took the time to tell Ye Xizhao: "Let's talk when we have time, you go back today, don't waste your time with them."

Ye Xizhao also took advantage of the situation to say his words, walked outside the Chuihua Gate, and met Xiao Xun.

Xiao Xun asked with a smile, "Why did you order the housekeeper to buy a BMW?"

"Naturally, it is useful." Ye Xizhao looked at Xiao Xun who looked particularly refreshed, and asked with a smile, "You still have time to think about things outside the house?"

"Naturally." Xiao Xun said, "I'm also interested in the BMW you want."

"Then how can I do that?" Ye Xizhao raised his eyebrows, "You are a big man, don't you know that a gentleman doesn't steal people's love?"

Xiao Xun suppressed a smile and teased her, "You little girl, isn't buying a BMW a waste of money?"

Ye Xizhao said angrily, "You're too strict."

Only then did Xiao Xun laugh and said, "I'm kidding, I've ordered someone to negotiate a deal with you, and bought the BMW for the butler in your house."

Ye Xizhao smiled relieved, "It's not too bad."
