Chapter 439: Living Back in Anguo Mansion
It felt so interesting, three daughters and three fathers, all of which she secretly dealt with. Nanny Hua didn't know about this, she asked the housekeeper to handle it.
The second son is the son of the housekeeper, who aspires to become the old master of the marquis's mansion. He listens to her and does not interfere with who she gets involved with.
What would happen if the daughters knew their father was gone? Would they curse even more?
They are really stupid. If they don't get rid of it, do they still want to marry into a wealthy family, wear gold and silver and become the mistress of the house?
Why do people only remember her faults? No one remembers her good deeds?
The old lady laughed and laughed, and finally fell to the ground with her mouth crooked and her limbs twitching.
The woodshed was dark and cold, and no one came to see her. She just lay there like a dead dog, motionless.
Five days later, Ye Zhenghai returned to the Duke's Mansion with his family, empty-handed, without taking anything with him.
Chen Xiangxiu said that she liked the small courtyard in the west of the city very much, and she kept her things there so that she could use them when she came back. Ye Zhenghai did not object, as long as the lady was there, that was home.
All of Du Wanwan and Ye Tingxiao's things were in the space and there was no need to take them. Only Ye Tingyu and Ye Tingfeng took some of their own personal belongings.
Yetinghe became familiar with Yetingyu, so he followed her example and took a few sets of clothes to change into.
Ye Zhengqiu's son Ye Tinghua is twelve years old this year, a few years younger than Ye Tingfeng. He is well-mannered and looks like a scholar.
He had experienced what happened to his grandmother, and when facing his uncle's family, he always felt ashamed. He seldom spoke and liked to be invisible, with no sense of existence.
But he is very handsome, very much like his father Ye Zhengqiu.
I have to say that the Ye family has good genes, and every child is very outstanding.
Seeing that he always seemed to be worried, Du Wanwan whispered a few words to Ye Tingxiao. The latter's eyes fell on him, he glanced at him and said nothing.
He gave her a reassuring look.
Arriving at the gate of the Duke of Anguo's Mansion, Ye Zhenghai looked up at the tall plaque of the gatehouse, then glanced at Du Wanwan with a smile.
"Wanwan! Father thanks you for everything you have done for the Ye family. Without you, there would be no Ye family today."
He didn't say anything else but this. I believe his daughter-in-law knew exactly what he wanted to thank her for.
Ye Tingxiao bowed deeply to Du Wanwan: "Wanwan! I thank you too!"
Chen Xiangxiu held her daughter-in-law's hand and said, "Thank you, too! If it weren't for your efforts to support this family, I don't know if I could survive."
"My second uncle also thanks you. If you hadn't lent me money, I wouldn't have been able to open a private school." Ye Zhengqiu said with deep emotion.
Liang looked at Du Wanwan with a smile: "Second Aunt also thanks you. Without your suggestion, Second Aunt's book would not have sold so well."
Ye Tingyu: "I also thank my sister-in-law for teaching me many principles of life."
Ye Tingfeng: "Thank you sister-in-law for giving me Zamao and Nana. I like them so much."
Ye Tinghe: "Thank you sister-in-law for helping my parents."
Ye Tinghua bowed to Du Wanwan very solemnly: "Thank you sister-in-law for lending a helping hand and rescuing our family in times of crisis."
"You're too polite." Du Wanwan helped Ye Tinghua up. "Even your father can't solve the elders' problems, let alone you. You should be happy at such a young age.
Don't always worry about it, don't force yourself to be mature, you are still a young boy, study hard, grow up healthily is your responsibility. Everything else is not something you can bear, you are still young. "
Ye Tingxiao came over and patted Ye Tinghua on the shoulder: “Remember what your sister-in-law said, whether our family can succeed depends on you.
The men of the Ye family are not cowards. Once they have chosen a path, they must move forward courageously. Being indecisive is not the character of the Ye family. "
Suddenly, something in Ye Tinghua's heart exploded with a "pop", the heavy feeling disappeared, and a smile appeared on his face in an instant.
"Yes! Xiaohua remembered the teachings of his brother and sister-in-law."
When Butler Wang saw Duke Anguo and his family returning home, he gathered all the servants and lined up to welcome them.
These people were sent by the Crown Prince at the request of the Queen, because the Prince was afraid that the Ye family would not come to the capital for a long time and that spies would be planted in their place when they were bought.
The Ye family is his right-hand man and the pillar of the Wei Dynasty.
Especially Yetingxiao, he invented the musket. Even if outsiders don’t know him for the time being, they will guess something about him over time.
It was after arriving at Liangjun City that the King of Dongchen went back to research and invent the musket.
Why is this happening? Anyone with a brain can figure it out.
After the New Year, he will be on a diplomatic mission to Southern Xinjiang and Dongchen, and Ye Tingxiao must accompany him. How could someone be a spy in the mansion when he is such a capable person?
The Queen also knows what is important and all the people are carefully selected.
No matter whether it was the doorman, groom, page boy, servant, gardener, maid, etc., all of them had been screened by the Queen's people.
The prince did not hide this matter from Ye Tingxiao and told him everything.
Ye Tingxiao also told his family about the severity of the situation. Ye Zhengqiu and Liang were immediately excited. It was estimated that there would be no other family that could have its servants personally selected by the Queen.
Ye Zhenghai and Chen Xiangxiu lived in the main courtyard, and Xu lived in the courtyard next to them.
Ye Zhengqiu and Liang chose the yard next to the main yard. Ye Zhengqiu said he wanted to be closer to his eldest brother.
Yetingyu and Yetinghe chose the places they liked, and Yetingfeng and Yetinghua also chose the courtyards they liked to live in.
Ye Tingxiao and Du Wanwan chose the quieter backyard because she had a secret that couldn't be discovered.
Ye Zhenghai chose an older follower who looked more stable. Ye Zhengqiu did not use a follower because he felt that it was inappropriate for him to have a follower since he was just running a private school.
Yetingxiao is of no use either, he has one night and two nights alone, no need for a long-term companion.
Yetingfeng wanted a servant, and Yetinghua also wanted one. Chenxiangxiu decided to give him a book boy.
Chen Xiangxiu asked for a nanny and two maids, and the rest were arranged by the housekeeper. She was too lazy to worry about it.
Xu asked for a maid and a nanny, and the rest were handed over to the housekeeper.
Yetingyu asked for two personal maids and not the rest.
Ye Ting is the same as her.
Du Wanwan didn't want any maids in her courtyard, but she did want two wet nurses.
It was the first time that Wang Wanli had met such a noble family, and he felt it was really casual.
Generally, the mistress of a wealthy family would have four personal maids, four old women, four second-class maids, and four maids to do menial work.
Unexpectedly, Lady Anguo only asked for two maids and asked him to arrange the rest. He had to do his best.
The Queen Mother selected them to serve her, and if they are not dedicated, they might lose their heads.
He had already reprimanded the Duke of Anguo and his family for these things before they returned, and probably no one would dare to disobey them.
As soon as Ye Zhenghai moved back, many people came to visit him every day, but he turned them down with various reasons.
He was not good at dealing with those people, nor was he good at scheming. He just wanted to be a clean person and be loyal to the emperor, and didn't care about anything else.
The same thing happened to Chen Xiangxiu. She received many visiting invitations from the mistresses of various families, but she declined them for various reasons.
She had no intention of flirting with these people. As the New Year was drawing to a close, she missed her eldest grandson Chenchen very much.
