That scratch is like a feather brushing through my heart, and like a swallow passing by a calm lake. Wen Yu clenched his hands subconsciously, as if to hold this feeling firmly. He still had an ice-jade face and Ling Ran's unchanging expression, but the ripples and sparkles in his heart were only known to him.
But there was the rebel who didn't know how to restrain himself, who still winked at him desperately.
The two stood together at the door frame, bright and unparalleled, charming and charming. One stood on the steps outside the door, with an outstanding appearance, cool and elegant. Anyone who looks at it will praise the stunning looks of this young couple, they can be called a couple of gods. It must also feel that they are newlyweds, and they are inseparable like glue.
Wen Yu got into the carriage, and Ye Ping was still leaning on the door to see him off.
The sun is shining and gushing out from the clouds, as if some kind of irrepressible emotion, without fear of all obstacles. She inexplicably felt that her cheeks were a little hot, and her heart was also hot.
It's not the first time for her to tease someone, no matter if it's hard teasing or raw teasing, she has done more exciting things than this, why did she just pick Wen Yu's palm, but it made her face red, her ears red, her heart beat faster.
It shouldn't be.
Xu used to be seductive and didn't care about her, but now she seems a little distracted.
She was thinking self-deprecatingly, and when she turned around, she saw Ye Mu and Ye Shi smiling at her. The joy in Ye Mu's eyes and the comfort in Ye Shi's eyes brought back the red tide that had just faded.
Really thin-skinned, this can also blush.
"I used to think that the king of the county was cold and cold, and I was afraid that he was not very considerate. I didn't expect that although the king of the county was indifferent, he was a man who knew the cold and the hot." Ye Mu said with emotion: "The newlyweds should be like this. When your grandfather and I were newly married, not to mention holding hands, even if I talked closer, he would blush for a long time."
Ye Ping laughed. Between grandmother and grandfather, the shy one was indeed grandfather.
All the female relatives are at home, so the speech is naturally much more casual. Even Ye, who was conservative like Ye, asked Ye Ping about the couple's affairs, and made himself blush.
When Ye Ping returned to her mother's house, she prepared a lot of things. All the things on the bright face were kept by Ye Shi, and she took out a set of gold hollowed-out hairstyles for Ye Ting.
Ye Ting was slightly stunned, and then hurriedly refused.
"Sister, I...I can't have it."
The eldest sister married into a noble family, and I don't know how many people are jealous. How many people secretly waited to see their family's jokes, and laughed at the shabby dowry prepared by their family. If the county king hadn't sent something in advance to silence the world, the elder sister would definitely be looked down upon.
"Do you think this is something from the Princess Mansion?" Ye Ping stuffed it to her. "I paid for this for you. You can wear it at ease and add it to your dowry in the future."
"Eldest sister's own money?"
Where did the eldest sister get the money?
The face cream business lady didn't take it away, where did the money come from?
Ye Pingxian pointed to her forehead, "I'm a first-rank imperial order, and I'm on a salary."
In the Sheng Dynasty, Yipin’s imperial order was equivalent to that of Mrs. Guo. In addition to the salary, there were also official rice and four seasons’ rewards, which amounted to nearly a thousand taels of silver a year. She is in the Princess Mansion, and her food and clothing are not her own. It's like working part-time for others with food and lodging, and all your wages can be saved. And she is not an ordinary worker, she can roughly be called a partner.
The gold used in this set of masks was the consulting fee after Wen Yuye asked her, and she added some more herself. If it wasn't for the fear that Tingniang would not want it, it would be no problem to give her a few sets of gem head masks or gold inlaid jade head masks with her current financial ability.
In the future, even if Tingniang doesn't marry high, the family she will marry will not be bad, and the dowry should be prepared early. She pushed the head over again, but this time Ye Ting still refused to accept it.
"Everything in the Gaomen mansion needs to be cleaned up, so the eldest sister should keep it for herself..."
"I am the mistress of the house, do I still need to take care of the whole house?"
What's the use of keeping a servant who doesn't look at his master's face?
In the end, it was Mother Ye who spoke, and Ye Ting put away the things. She held the box carefully, the joy in her eyes could not deceive anyone. The Ye family is not rich, and in the early years because of Ye Ting's frailty, she didn't go out as guests very often, but all good things were closely followed by the original owner. The original owner has new clothes for four seasons and two sets of jewelry that can be worn out, but Ye Ting has nothing. The two are obviously twin sisters, but because Ye Ting is thin, she always wears the original owner's old clothes.
Ye Ping looked at her younger sister who was a little bit shy even when she was happy, and her nose felt a little sore for no reason. She didn't know why she suddenly thought of Song Jinyuan, how wonderful it would be if the other party didn't have that **** fate.
She has always cared about her younger sister's marriage, and she asked Wen Yu to take care of her since the Song family intended to get married last time. Wen Yu is a close minister of the emperor, and he is well aware of the trends in the court, so the person he picks must be good.
He mentioned a military general two days ago, and Ye Ping plans to find a chance to meet him in the next few days. If she is really a good young man, she will arrange for Tingniang to meet with that person.
Just as she was thinking, what Ye Shi said was also about Ye Ting.
"Master Liu's family, you came to help on the day you got married, I wonder if you still remember?"
"I have a little impression, it seems very easy-going."
It seems to be called Liu Dian, he is not short, and his appearance can be called handsome.
Mrs. Ye nodded sharply, "Yes, I seem to have a lively personality."
Mr. Liu and Ye Geng are colleagues, and the Liu family is a wealthy family, so speaking of this marriage, they are the ones who have made the most of it. Hearing what Ye Shi said, Ye Geng also agreed in his heart. The reason why he didn't reply to the Liu family was because he wanted to ask Ye Ping and Wen Yu what they meant.
The Ye family didn't have too many rules, even talking about such things did not avoid Ye Ting. Ye Ting's hand holding the box was tight, and her face turned pale when she saw it.
"Tingniang also met Mr. Liu that day, what's your impression?" Ye Ping asked.
Ye Ting lowered her head, "I... I didn't look carefully."
Mrs. Ye said with a smile: "Don't tease Tingniang, she is not like you. I see Mr. Liu's cheerful disposition, which matches Tingniang's quiet temperament."
Ye Ping and Ye Ting have twins, and the natural connection between the twins is beyond comprehension. Mother said Tingniang was shy, but she didn't think so.
She shook her sister's hand, "If you don't want to, don't force yourself."
Ye Shi was obviously shocked when he heard this.
Is Tingniang unwilling?
Ye Ting whispered: "I...I am not unwilling."
Mother Ye frowned at the side, she brought up her second granddaughter, she seemed to be a bit weak-tempered, but she wasn't the kind of person who kept everything in her heart and didn't say anything. If you are willing, you are willing, if you are unwilling, you are unwilling, why hesitate?
"Tingniang, do you like Mr. Liu?"
Ye Ting didn't answer, but lowered her head even lower.
With her behavior like this, Ye Ping didn't understand anything. Tingniang wasn't unwilling, but she wasn't very willing either. Mostly because they thought this marriage was a good one and couldn't find a reason to refuse it.
Did Tingniang have other thoughts?
Mother Ye frowned even deeper. Looking at her second granddaughter like this, she obviously didn't like Mr. Liu very much. Mr. Liu has a good background and a good temper, but if Tingniang doesn't like it, they, as elders, can't force the child to marry him.
She glanced at her daughter-in-law, Ye's face was extremely tangled.
Ye grew up in Wang's family, and he is the most orderly person. If she hadn't been used to being at ease in the Ye family these years, and met a mother-in-law like Ye Mu again, she might not be able to sit still at this time.
Marriage matters, how can you ask the girl herself?
"Tingniang, Mr. Liu looks good, Zhou Zheng's family is good, and his temperament is good, what are you dissatisfied with?"
"Mother, liking someone is not because of his family temperament, and disliking someone is not because you don't like his family temperament."
What the eldest daughter said made Mrs. Ye even more entangled.
So Tingniang doesn't like Mr. Liu himself?
Why?
Zhou Zheng's appearance is good, his temperament is good, why don't you like him?
Ye Ping is also thinking about this question. Tingniang is soft-tempered and listens to adults very much on weekdays. She is not a person with obvious likes and dislikes. unless…
"Does Tingniang have someone she likes?"
Ye Ting lowered her head, but her ears were frighteningly red.
That's it.
Ye Ping suddenly realized that Tingniang, her family, also had someone she liked.
Both Ye's mother and Ye's family were taken aback. Tingniang seldom went out at home every day, and she was always under their noses. When did she have a man she likes?
"It's okay, it's a good thing to have someone you like, as long as that person has a good character."
"He's a nice guy."
Good man.
Ye Ping tsk tsk in her heart, this silly boy won't fall in love with someone just because he is a good person, right?
Who is it?
Her heart moved slightly, and she signaled her sister to go out with herself.
Ye's mother and Ye's family knew that the two sisters had something to say, and there were some things that Tingniang would not share in front of the elders, but she would certainly be willing to tell Pingniang.
Ye Ping didn't ask who that person was, but talked about the Song family's marriage earlier.
"You know about Ms. Liu. Do you know why the Liu family turned around and got engaged to the Xie family? It was because the Liu family went to several temples to ask the hexagrams, and they were all very ominous. If Ms. Liu married into the Song family, I'm afraid I couldn't save my life. Later, Mrs. Chang became a middle-aged man, and she mentioned Mr. Song with her mother. My mother was very happy, and I disagreed. Do you know why I disagree? I don't have opinions on Mr. Song, nor the Song family. There is no taboo, just because I am worried about you, and I am afraid that something will happen to you."
"Eldest sister, I... know that you love me the most. Miss Liu and Mr. Song are in conflict, others may not..."
Ye Ting's face turned even paler, and her face was pale.
It turned out to be like this.
She thought it was because her family thought the Song family was too tall, and they were afraid that she would not be able to straighten up after marrying.
Ye Ping touched her hair, "Tingniang, everything is not as important as your own life. You think he is a good person right now, and you haven't reached the point where you have to. There are so many men in the world, I believe you will meet one Someone I really like."
At this time Aunt Zhong came in from the outside, and she heard her joyful voice from a long distance, as if she said that the master had been promoted, Ye Shi almost jumped up when she heard the sound, and hurried out to ask each other in surprise.
"Who got promoted?"
"Ma'am, it's the master, our master has been promoted!"
Mother Ye also followed, "You heard me right, how many ranks have you been promoted to? What position?"
"What kind of sacrificial wine is it, I didn't hear it clearly." Aunt Zhong was so happy that she didn't have time to ask clearly. At that moment, he hurriedly asked Ye Zhong who came back to report the letter, and only then did he know that Ye Geng had been promoted to the official position of the fifth rank in the Guozijian Jijiu.
Mrs. Ye wept with joy, and Mother Ye put her hands together to thank God.
The two sisters Ye Ping and Ye Ting looked at each other with joy on their faces. My father hasn't moved for many years, and this move is a series of promotions, directly promoted to Guozijian Jijiu.
The previous Jijiu retired from office due to his old age. According to the previous procedures, he would either be transferred from another place, or the lower division would be promoted. It is impossible for Ye Geng, who is the supervisor, to take over.
Everyone in the Guozijian said that Ye Geng was in the honor of the son-in-law of the county king. Mr. Liu was most happy for him, but Mr. Si Yeliu was the one who was most upset.
Mr. Liu originally thought that after Lao Jijiu became an official, this position would be his own. Not long ago, he tried his best to win over Ye Geng, saying that after he was promoted to Jijiu, he would definitely recommend Ye Geng as secretary. Who would have thought that Ye Geng had plotted ahead of him by being silent. His face was blue and red, not to mention how embarrassing it was.
Ye Geng was surrounded by his colleagues at this time, listening to those congratulations and compliments. Suddenly, his eyes passed over the crowd, and he looked straight at Mr. Liu.
Obviously this gaze is very modest, but Mr. Liu felt guilty for a while.
This Lord Ye was really underestimated in the past.
He bit the bullet and stepped forward, saying congratulations.
Ye Geng returned the gift, and after saying a sentence, he still had to rely on Mr. Liu and other kind words. These words were originally in an official tone, but it was extremely uncomfortable to hear Mr. Liu.
A man who relies on a woman for his position is not too ashamed to panic.
"In the past, some people said that I relied on my wife's natal family, but now some people will secretly say that I rely on my daughter's husband's family. That's right, I am a man who relies on my wife and daughter. Without my wife, I would not be able to go out with peace of mind. If it wasn't for my daughter, I wouldn't be able to get through it. If someone wants to say this in the future, there is no need to hide and say it, just tell me and listen to it."
Everyone was shocked, and there was silence for a while.
Master Liu was the first to react, and patted Ye Geng on the back.
"Master Ye is right. In this way, I am also a man who relies on his wife and daughter."
Everyone laughed awkwardly, Master Liu's face was stiff with laughter.
Well, you Ye Geng, you actually want to come to the Ming Dynasty!
When he was on duty, Ye Geng went out surrounded by stars.
Mr. Liu, who had enjoyed such treatment before, fell behind. He was jealous and fortunate at the same time. He was jealous of Ye Geng's good luck, and he was glad that he had always shown his favor to Ye Geng before.
A group of people had just left the Imperial College, and saw the carriage of the Princess Mansion from a distance. A pair of big bony hands lifted the curtain of the car, revealing the noble and unparalleled profile of the owner.
Everyone was horrified, it turned out to be King Wen.
Until Ye Geng got into Wen Yu's carriage, everyone still stood there for a long time unable to recover.
Master Liu secretly reminded himself not to show jealousy in the future, and must have a good relationship with Master Ye. The Ye family has such a distinguished son-in-law, no matter how jealous he is, it will not help.
Shen Shi was about to pass, the carriage parked outside Ye's house, and the laughter inside could be heard from a distance.
The two brothers Ye Lian and Ye Zheng had returned home from school, and at this time Ye Ping was hugging Ye Zheng, kissing and tickling, exaggeratingly lamenting that the fat boy was getting heavier again, which made Ye Zheng giggle.
As soon as Wen Yu entered, what he saw was the scene of siblings having fun together. His deep eyes fluctuated slightly, if they had children in the future, would it be the same?
Ye Geng talked with his son-in-law all the way, and he felt that he had benefited a lot, and because he had just been promoted, he looked very high-spirited. In the past few months, he never dreamed that he would have today.
The family is beaming and the atmosphere is cheerful.
Mother Ye opened her mouth to save food, and Wen Yu agreed without saying anything. She was so happy that Mother Ye walked with the wind, rolled up her sleeves happily and went to the kitchen.
The Ye family's meals are naturally not luxurious, but they are home-cooked and have a distinctive taste.
Ye Ping likes Ye Mu's pickled cabbage with minced meat in black bean sauce very much, it is hot and sour and refreshing. Mother Ye knew that she liked to eat, so she specially put this dish in front of her.
She frequently started on this dish, it was hard for Wen Yu not to pay attention.
"This dish looks inconspicuous, but it's my grandmother's specialty. Do you want to try it, the king of the county?" She picked up a chopstick with a serving chopstick and put it in Wen Yu's bowl.
Wen Yu grew up in the palace and had never eaten such folk dishes.
Ye Mu and Ye Shi suddenly raised their hearts and looked at him nervously. If the county king doesn't want to show her face, they are fine, but they are afraid that Pingniang will lose face.
Under everyone's attention, Wen Yu moved his chopsticks and put them in his mouth gracefully.
Ye Ping looked at him with a smile, "How does it taste?"
"Don't have a bad taste."
Mother Ye was relieved, she smiled so hard that she couldn't see her eyes. Who said that the county king is unkind, she looked at this grandson-in-law, although his face was a little cold, but he had a good heart.
Her family, Pingniang, is a lucky one.
It was already dark when the couple left.
The lanterns outside the door of Ye's house were brightly lit, illuminating the road in front of the door.
The family sent them out, and Ye Ping talked to Ye Ting in a low voice, Ye Ting nodded from time to time. The two sisters had already talked about it, but Ye Ting didn't have deep affection after all, and whenever there was a happy event at home, she naturally rushed to talk about it. It's a pity that someone as good as Mr. Song has such a bad fate.
Ye Zheng was most reluctant to part with the eldest sister, relying on Ye Ping's body and refused to let her go. He is small, no matter how talented he is, he is only a child less than four years old.
Ye Ping coaxed him, "Little Si, dear, Big Sister will come to see you in a few days."
"Eldest sister means what she says." The little man stretched out his finger, "pull the hook."
The siblings pulled the hook, but Ye Zheng was still humming.
"The elder sister will bring the little niece to play in the future."
Ye Ping was stunned, "Where did the little niece come from?"
Ye Zheng pointed to her belly, "The little niece is in the big sister's belly."
She looked down, her heart skipped a beat.
"Okay, big sister will bring my little niece to play with you in the future."
Xiao Yezheng's words caught her heart.
Counting the days, her menstrual period is tomorrow.
Early the next morning, there was no movement.
When Sanxi combed her hair, there was a hint of joy in her narrowed eyes. She slowly raised her eyes, and gave the girl a calm look from the mirror.
The day is not over yet, don't be too happy.
Waiting, waiting, waiting until the lights are off and going to bed, the one who should come still hasn't come. Ye Ping had vague expectations in her heart, and when the man behind her posted up, she leaned on him and bit her ear.
Wen Yu stopped moving and hugged her to sleep.
Her legs were clamped and her upper body was hugged. This kind of embrace was really suffocating. After protesting several times, there was still no change, she was so angry that she gritted her teeth, the instigator was still going her own way.
The next day, the menstruation still did not come.
On the third day, it was still the same.
day four...
On the fifth day, Doctor Gu quietly came to the door.
This day, Wen Yu was not on duty. After Dr. Gu saw him, there was no surprise in his old and worldly eyes, only wisdom that was transparent and humane.
Ye Ping sat quietly, resting her wrist on the pulse pillow.
Doctor Gu pressed two fingers, and congratulated after repeatedly feeling the pulse.
In an instant, something seemed to break through the ground.
Ye Ping looked subconsciously, just in time to meet Wen Yu's eyes.
They are really going to be parents!
