Chapter 277: Choosing a boss



Moreover, Ye Qiu also has her own little thoughts. Since she can't marry He Qing and can't get married for herself, then perhaps she can fight for her mother Tang Miao's marriage.

My mother Tang Miao has been known for favoring her concubine for decades. I thought that my father Ye Zhou would treat my mother differently after he returned from southern Yunnan.

It seems so. The first thing my father did when he returned to Kyoto was to go to Taoyuan Valley to pick up my mother without even going home. After she came back, their relationship was even better than before.

I don't know how my father coaxed my mother, who has always been easily influenced and has no idea what to do, so I took over the housekeeper's job. So my mother Tang Miao still didn't have the status of a legal wife, but she was doing the work of a legal wife.

Everything is still the same as before, and she is still the favored concubine.

Ye Qiu knew that his mother was not without ambition, but her personality was such that her ambition could only keep her going halfway before she lost her courage and confidence, retreated, or drifted with the tide of life.

If she could become the fifth prince's wife, as soon as the rumor got out, then before the official marriage, her father Ye Zhou would definitely find a way to raise her status.

If she wanted to be promoted to the legitimate daughter, she would definitely have to make her mother Tang Miao the legal wife.

After all, after the ex-wife's past of torturing and killing the mistress's younger sister was exposed and she was imprisoned, my father had completely removed the ex-wife Huang Mengling from the family tree. Even if he hadn't removed her, my father would not have registered the legitimate daughter under Huang's name.

The greater advantage is that once mother Tang Miao becomes the legal wife, then brother Ye Feng will obviously become the legitimate son.

The title of the Crown Prince of the Duke of Xiangguo's Mansion, which the two sons had been fighting for for so long, would naturally fall to the elder brother Ye Feng.

His younger brother Ye Song was also very good, but he was not his biological brother after all. The greater pressure fell on his brother as his father hesitated so much.

After all, he is the older brother. If his father hesitates and doesn't know which one to give the title to, people will say that the younger brother is a rising star, but they will inevitably say that the older brother is afraid of disappointing their father.

If his biological brother Ye Feng became the prince and inherited the title, and inherited the Duke of Xiangguo's Mansion in the future, his mother would become the real wife of the Duke of Xiangguo, and he would have a reliable mother's family.

Otherwise, if my father passes away in the future, no matter how my mother manages the household now, or how she is the legal wife in name only, as soon as my father is gone, my mother will be the same as the other two concubines.

By then, not only will her identity and situation be awkward, but the actual benefits will also be divided 30-30, and my mother has lived in vain for so many years in vain.

Because my father had never given anyone a formal status, and his preference for my mother was always controlled, none of the three concubines dared to act rashly or become arrogant because they all felt they did not have the capital to do so.

My father must have been afraid, as once bitten by a snake, he's afraid of a rope for ten years. Was it because of past experiences that he was still hesitant to make up his mind?

Another concubine's daughter, Ye Wan, married Ren Changlin, the youngest son of the Ren family. Both his elder brother, Ye Feng, and his younger brother, Ye Song, had married, and since the Xiangguo Mansion had not yet been divided, they all lived together.

If it was okay before, now that they are married and have children, they are inevitably trying to fight for the hereditary position of Duke of Xiangguo.

In Ye Qiu's opinion, although his younger brother Ye Song is not bad, he is not so good as to be better than his older brother Ye Feng. In this case, he should naturally succeed as the eldest.

I thought that because my brother inherited the title, my mother's status would also be elevated, but my father has not asked for the title of Crown Prince for so many years.

Ye Zhou always dragged his feet on the matter of inheriting the title, just like the matter of establishing his wife as his legal wife. In fact, since the current situation was good, he didn't want to change it.

He felt that although he had no wife, his three concubines were all doing well, he had not chosen which son to inherit the title, and his two sons were both working hard, so this was fine.

He even had the idea of ​​seeing which grandson was more outstanding, and was determined to delay the matters of inheriting the title and finding a wife.

He didn't know that his daughter Ye Qiu was planning to give him a push from behind.

Ye Qiu thought: Of the other two concubines, one gave birth to two daughters, both of whom are married; the other gave birth to a son, Ye Song.

Only his mother gave birth to a son and a daughter, but he had delayed himself because he had been coveting He Qing for so many years.

She was one year older than Wang Xipei. They had first met at the Spring Banquet that year. Unexpectedly, this pretty and lovely girl would become so stunning in the future. And now there were two princes competing for her...

But it may not be a good thing. She has been insulted and tortured a lot, and her life was almost lost... In the past few years, the prince has started to pursue his wife again. With such momentum tonight... But what's the use?

It can be seen that love can harm people.

Apart from He Qing, there are no other good men in the world. From now on, I will live for myself.

Although she was no longer a little girl, she was about the same age as the Fifth Prince. Moreover, given the Fifth Prince's current condition, the Queen probably would not choose a little girl.

What kind of person would the Queen choose? Someone with a good temperament, who could take responsibility and endure, and who could live with the Fifth Prince.

She must have the talent and character of a noble family, be able to manage the household, be a prince's consort, be able to handle and deal with both big and small matters, and be able to handle all kinds of royal occasions.

I cut off all feelings and love, and just treated this as a job. I regarded the Fifth Prince as the boss and myself as the manager, and I was satisfied with the salary.

Ye Qiu thought about it and felt that apart from her status as a concubine's daughter, she was a suitable candidate.

Other noble ladies in Kyoto with good conditions may not be willing to marry the current Fifth Prince.

Back then, Xuanyuan Huaiyu was a young man full of vigor and vitality. He was handsome and had an attractive personality. He was once the dream of many girls in Kyoto.

Ye Qiu knew that many young girls were attracted to the fifth prince, but in Ye Qiu's heart, ever since He Qing came into being, even the emperor's nobles and the princes and grandchildren of the emperor were no longer in his eyes.

The outstanding ladies from aristocratic families may not be willing to marry the Fifth Prince now, as everyone is proud and arrogant.

Xuanyuan Huaiyu probably has a grave and a person in his heart, with two ex-wives standing there like mountains. Who would be willing to be a remarriage for such a good girl?

The Fifth Prince loves Ren Jiayu, and now he deeply regrets Wang Xipei. Both are very dramatic. Which outstanding unmarried woman would want to get involved in this muddy water? Isn't this a hot potato?

Thinking this way, Ye Qiu felt that his chances of winning were quite good. He could fight for his mother and brother.

As long as I can hold on to that position, I shouldn't have to worry about food and drink and spending money. Which lady of a hereditary title is as tight on money as my mother?

Apart from the monthly allowance, their father always provided them with supplies from cloth shops, garment shops, jewelry shops and Shumozhai, which would come directly to their homes. They could choose what they wanted and pay at the public office after making their selection.

The only thing my mother gained from running away this time was probably a few tens of thousands of taels of private money.

How could he let the Queen know that he was willing? Was he one of the candidates the Queen was considering?
