Si De rubbed his face. The young master made his face very uncomfortable. He said: "Young master, the young lady will definitely not have any improper thoughts about Mr. Bao. The young lady is only thinking about you. As for Mr. Bao's feelings towards the young lady, it is hard to say."
Si De was still plotting against Bao Changzhou. Ye Zelin was so angry that he wanted to kick Si De away, but he was afraid of waking up Hua Fushu, so he grabbed his ears and told him to get out.
Si De covered his ears. The young master didn't believe him, which made him feel very wronged. "Young master, I really didn't lie to you. The way Mr. Bao looked at the young lady was just like the way the young lady looked at you. The young lady looked at you with affection, and Mr. Bao looked at the young lady with tenderness. You have to be careful, don't let Mr. Bao steal your girl away."
Ye Zelin was so angry that he gnashed his teeth. He really wanted to find a rope to tie up Si De, block his stinky mouth, and hang him on the century-old tree in Feiyuan.
Bao Changzhou was promoted by Your Majesty as the prefect of Tokyo. He will be of great use in the future. He is extremely talented and capable, and has good character. Moreover, the Bao family has strict family rules. How could he have any improper thoughts about a married woman?
Si De was such a gossip, making up stories about court ministers at will and alienating the relationship between him and Hua Fushu. How come he didn't know that Si De's moral character was so worrying before?
Ye Zelin became impatient and chased Si De away, "Get out of here now and copy the Tao Te Ching for me five hundred times. If you wake the young lady up, copy it a thousand times."
Side opened his eyes wide, unable to believe that the young master was so cruel to him?
Seeing Si De standing there motionless, Ye Zelin said coldly, "Why don't you get out of here?"
Si De was so frustrated that he had no choice but to walk away. After taking a few steps, he turned back and said, "Master, you don't want to eat anymore?"
Ye Zelin said bitterly: "I won't eat anymore."
You're already full of anger from him, and you still want to eat?
"Then I'll go copy the books." Side said.
Ye Zelin thought about it and decided that he shouldn't let himself down. "Let's eat."
Si De was delighted, "Then we don't need to copy books anymore?"
Ye Zelin said coldly: "You still have to copy the book five hundred times, not even once less."
Si De said aggrievedly, "Young Master."
Ye Zelin cursed softly, "I told you to be a bad mouth!"
Si De left in disappointment.
The sky gradually darkened, the lights came on, and the flickering candlelight illuminated the huge Fengjing.
The streets and alleys are crowded with people, bustling with activity, making the entire closed-off capital's streets lively.
The city is lined with pearls and jade, and every household is filled with silk and satin. There are countless delicacies and entertainment activities. Fireworks and silver flowers can be seen everywhere, scattered in an orderly manner, adding brilliance to the night.
This is a grand spectacle that is inevitable during every festival lantern festival.
Ye Zelin, as promised, walked in the bustling streets with flowers in his arms.
Hua Fushu looked back at him, "Sanqiao once told me that I would take her with me wherever I went. But this time, when I wanted to take her with me, she refused, saying that she wanted to go to the Lantern Festival with Lizhi, Cuizhi, and Liuzhi."
She smiled and said, "I know Sanqiao has a good relationship with Lizhi, but when she got close to Cuizhi, who was with my mother, and Liuzhi, who was with my sister-in-law, she even abandoned me as her master."
Ye Zelin said, "You are a popular girl. I heard that you have become close friends with the kitchen staff. It is not surprising that you are on good terms with the maids in other courtyards. Of course, the maids in my grandfather's courtyard may not have any contact with her."
Hua Fushu waited for him to come to her side, "That damn girl is benefiting from my influence. I am popular, so she is popular too."
Ye Zelin thought about it and felt that she seemed to have a lot of friends, which was also related to her good popularity. However, he had never met any of her friends, except for Cang Shu and the other three.
He nodded, agreeing with her. "That makes sense. It's just that Sanqiao is well-behaved and quiet. She's very likable just by looking at her. It's inevitable that she's popular."
Hua Fushu's almond-shaped eyes turned slightly, and he said jokingly, "Sanqiao is quiet and beautiful, well-behaved and sensible, and multi-talented. She is an all-rounder. Everyone likes her. The ball raised by my senior brother also likes her very much. I like her too. Do you like her? If you like her, I am willing to give her up."
Ye Zelin was slightly stunned. Since ancient times, it has been a custom for wives to send their maids as dowry to their husbands to be their concubines. Sanqiao and Hua Fushu grew up together. Although they were master and servant in name, they were actually as close as sisters. Given her personality, she would not let Sanqiao be his concubine.
Asking him directly like this was in line with her straightforward nature.
Ye Zelin's brows furrowed, his face becoming somewhat stern and serious. "Don't talk nonsense! A man of the Ye family is not allowed to take a concubine without reason. Don't even think about the maidservant next to my wife. Sanqiao is a good girl and should be promised to a good family. I don't like her, so I will definitely not take her in."
Seeing his serious look, Hua Fushu couldn't help laughing. Ye Zelin was really serious. Didn't he realize that she was joking and teasing him?
Sanqiao, she will be married off in the future, so how could she be left to cause trouble to him?
When Hua Fushu smiled, Ye Zelin knew she was asking this on purpose. He said coldly, "Stop laughing. What's so funny? You're taking advantage and acting crazy."
Being able to marry him was the greatest benefit she had ever gotten in her life, yet she was still so careless and irrational.
"Okay, I'll stop laughing, okay."
Hua Fushu tried not to laugh. She glanced around and saw a small stall selling dolls. She walked over and picked up two clay dolls. She said, "Look, they're cute. This girl doll has such a beautiful smile. Look at those two dimples. And this boy doll is cute too. I'll take it. You pay for it."
Ye Zelin looked at the two clay figures in her hands, her smile innocent and adorable. He said, "This is Mohele, just like the Wusheng Pen, both are used for praying for children. They are sold three to five days before Qixi Festival. Are you hoping for a child soon?"
Have a baby soon?
This was the third time she had heard the phrase "have a baby soon" in the past two days. If someone else urged her to have a baby soon, she would definitely be unhappy. But when Ye Zelin said it, she didn't get angry, but instead felt a little shy.
Hua Fushu calmed down and said jokingly, "Ye Zelin, do you want to have a baby soon? If you want a baby soon, I will reluctantly give birth to one for you."
Ye Zelin's face looked a little unnatural, a little red. He cleared his throat and said, "There's no rush for this matter. Let's talk about it later, later."
The owner of the doll stall chuckled, "The husband is handsome, and the wife is pretty. I wonder how long they've been married?"
Hua Fushu said, "We've been married for less than half a year."
"More than four months." Ye Zelin said.
The stall owner saw that Hua Fushu and his wife looked like a perfect match, so he said, "Four months is not a short time. Husband and wife, please buy two babies. You will have a son soon and a daughter soon. Then you will have both sons and daughters, and you will live a long and happy life."
Ye Zelin glanced at Hua Fushu and said, "She's still young."
The stall owner was instantly disappointed.
Ye Zelin looked at the two clay figures in Hua Fushu's hands and asked, "Do you really like them?"
Hua Fushu said, "I don't like it."
