most injuries. 。Later, the old general brought him back to Beijing and bought him property, hoping to help him find another wife. 。But he refused, saying nothing more than that fear lingered in his...The one word from Ye Wushuang caused a ripple of curiosity among the crowd, all eyes drawn to the teacup.
The old madam smiled and watched Ye Wushuang, not stopping the curious people. She just let Ye Wushuang show off her skills. 。The first one to rush over was Ye Lianmian. She was still holding a broken arm, though she was sitting on the side of the main house. Even though the main house had collectively opposed the second house earlier, even Ye Fei Zhou had participated, she hadn't shown any reaction at all, just sitting in her chair watching the show like nothing happened. 。But at this moment, she came to life and rushed over. Seeing the tea, she exclaimed, "It's exactly the same as the one at the entrance of our house! It's incredible! How many years would it take to learn such a skill"Xiao Sh beyaz also leaned forward, took a look at the scene in the bowl, and his resentment grew even more. 。At first, Yèhóngzhuāng also learned to brew tea, able to conjure simple flowers. She wanted to learn more advanced techniques, like conjuring landscapes, but her master could no longer teach her any further. 。For this, she even sought help from the Xiao family, asking her mother to find a better tea master to teach Hong Zhuang. But Ye Xing Sheng said that learning those showy crafts was useless. It would be better to learn dancing and practice her posture so that she could win more love from men in the future. 。The master who had just entered was sent back out again, and thus Ye Hongzhuang's skill in serving tea came to an end. From then on, no one ever mentioned it again. 。She had always thought that she didn't like tea because she didn't appreciate the art of making it. Unexpectedly, he wouldn't let Yè Hóngzhuāng learn, but instead taught his own illegitimate daughter so well. 。It wasn't that he disliked this craft, but rather that he wanted to save the best for Ye Wushuang. 。Xiao Shubi then turned his gaze to Ye Wushuang, this time taking a thorough look from head to toe. 。Ye Wushuang was wearing a sky-blue long dress today. The cuffs were embroidered with lace, looking both simple and elegant. 。She is very beautiful, this kind of beauty is not like Ye Wen's kind of lively and agile. At first glance, she is a super beautiful woman. 。Nor does it resemble the bright and alluring beauty of a night-blooming flower, which carries a hint of flirtation. The more you savor it, the more it appears to be the type that men desire. 。Her eyebrows and eyes were delicately shaped, yet she had a natural blush on her cheeks. Her lips were also a soft pink, and her shoulders were narrow with a slender waist. Whether speaking or silent, she carried an air of shyness, tinged with a hint of grievance. 。Her voice was as sweet and melodious as a nightingale, enchanting anyone who heard it. They would be captivated, longing to hear her speak more and wanting to gaze upon her face. 。This way, she resembles her mother Chang Xueqiao very much. The two are like being carved from the same mold, only one is a young girl and the other a middle-aged beauty. 。Although Xiao Shubi was unwilling, he had to admit that the mother and daughter's appearance were exactly what men liked. 。That slightly wronged look was touching the man's desire to protect a woman. 。She is too domineering, always thinking she can help men build a foundation and make a success of their lives. She has a strong family background and believes it allows her to rely on men. But she forgets that every man has a dream of being a hero protecting his beloved woman; they need someone who completely relies on him, respects him, and obeys him in everything. 。He can be coquettish, he can cry, and then he can open his arms to embrace people, taking care of them with tenderness. 。Chang Xueqiao is just that kind of feeling, this appearance was born to be a beauty paired with a hero. 。Similarly, Ye Wushuang also... 。Xiao Shubei's heart beat faster. He thought that a person with no roots or foundation, even if they were favored by a man for a few years, when they got older, that favor would be gone. 。She even considered giving Ye Ningsheng a few more beautiful concubines to share the favor of Chang Xueqiao. 。But now it seems, those won't work. 。With just her appearance, Chang Xueqiao wants to divide the affection she receives She'll have to wait another ten or eight years. 。But she couldn't wait any longer. 。"Grandma, please have some tea" 。Ye Wushuang offered the tea to the elderly madam again, who smiled and drank it. 。 Ye Chen was very happy with the scenery at night. He praised Ye Wushuang highly for being so smart, quick to learn, and well-behaved. 。But the next stage made him unhappy again, because the next stage was Chang Xueqiao and Ye Wushuang offering tea to the Xiao family. 。 Though it was fortunate that he had married a concubine, not a secondary wife, so Chang Xue Qiao only needed to call her sister and didn't have to respectfully call her the second mistress. 。At night, one only needs to call her "Second Madam" and there's no need to awkwardly refer to her as "Mother". 。Chang Xueqiao told Xiao Shubi that he didn't need to kneel when serving tea. Being a concubine was still a respected position, so she only needed to hold the cup and slightly bow her head to offer it to Xiao Shubi. 。But Chang Xueqiao still knelt down, respectfully kneeling before Xiao Shuwai. She raised her teacup above her head and then said with a grateful expression: "I am so grateful to my elder sister for her kindness in allowing me to enter the door. Xueqiao is deeply indebted." 。From now on, Yukiyo will serve her elder sister well and take good care of her children. She will never disappoint her elder sister's kindness. 。“Please, sister, drink this cup of tea!”
The tea was lifted forward again. Xiao Shuwai took a deep breath and took the cup, even opening the lid to look inside. She didn't see any sign of the tea-making skill again, and only then did she feel slightly relieved. 。Just calm down, she has something on her mind today and can't forget about the one million taels of silver she owes the Duke of Su. 。Just as she was about to reach for the tea, she saw a servant moving outside the door. Her heart skipped a beat, and she thought someone had come to announce the arrival of the Sixth Palace Master. Her hand trembled involuntarily. 。With that shake, the tea was spilled. Chang Xueqiao's hand was scalded and she cried out in surprise. Her eyes instantly welled up with tears. 。When the night scene arrived, she was furious - "Xiao Shu Bai, what are you doing Are you on purpose You're the mistress of the house, look at who's mistress acts like this Do you even have the demeanor of a mistress" She said, looking at Chang Xue Qiao's hand that was burned. 。Zhui'er muttered beside Ye Wen, "Tea that can be drunk directly shouldn't be hot; it's too much of an act." 。" Night Wen Yan smiled after hearing this, but didn't say anything. " 。Looking at the spectacular night view again, she was already pointing at Xiao Sh beyaz and scolding him fiercely, even showing signs of wanting to hit him. 。Chang Xueqiao desperately pulled Ye Wanning, pleading: "Master, it was my fault. I didn't hold it steady. It has nothing to do with the Second Madam. You can scold me, but please don't take it out on her! The Second Madam already has a hard time. As the main wife, seeing a concubine enter is not something every mistress can handle..." 。Sir, please calm down. No matter what happens, just come at me. 。When she said this, both Lady Ye and the older mistress felt that her daughter-in-law was truly sensible. She had handled all the etiquette and social norms perfectly, and her words were both heartfelt and reasonable. 。Compared to this, Xiao Shubi is truly petty and spiteful, unworthy of the position as head mistress of a first-rank general's mansion. 。Xiao Shubi was so angry her face turned pale, but she couldn't say anything. She couldn't admit that she had been distracted and knocked over the teacup because of something on her mind, nor could she refute Chang Xueqiao's words, which sounded so sensible. 。I could only swallow this dumb loss, watching Chang Xueqiao play the role of a white lotus flower. I couldn't help but want to strangle her right there. 。Under Chang Xueqiao's persuasion, Ye Xing Sheng finally calmed down for the moment and did not blame Xiao Sh beyaz. 。"But this also serves as a reminder: quickly finish your tea and put it down. Wushuang is still waiting to offer you tea! This time, be extra careful holding it. If you spill the tea again, that'll be intentional troublemaking." 。Xiao Shubi remained silent, taking the teacup offered by Chang Xueqiao and sipping it lightly. He then set it down. 。Chang Xue Qiao thanked the second madam and stepped aside. Next, Ye Wu Shang served tea. 。This time the tea wasn't spilled, but Xiao Shūbái asked another question: "Whose teachings are you following for your skill in serving tea" Yè Wúshuāng answered obediently: "I don't know my master's name or surname, I only know that she calls herself Sānniáng and is a highly skilled person whom my father found for me." 。Xiao Shubi clenched his fists so tightly that his fingernails were almost digging into his flesh. 。Jinshu, who was standing beside her, couldn't take it anymore either. She spoke up for her mistress: "San Niang Isn't that the tea master invited by the Xiao family for Miss San Although I was young back then, I still remember what the old master said: girls are better off practicing dancing and playing the qin than learning about tea." 。How could you have turned around and sent the master invited by the Xiao family to someone else"
Night Wushuang was astonished, “This…”
Ye Ye Sheng quickly took over the conversation: "Don't be ungrateful! Back then, everyone knew how Hongzhuang was raised. 。I made her learn more dance and music, is that wrong She's different from the others. She's an adopted child. All I want for her in this life is to be safe and sound. I never expected her to excel, so I sent a tea master to teach her. 。As for who hired me, hmph, I paid her silver, San Niang is willing to do things for me. What can the Xiao family say If she truly wouldn't do something that wasn't from the Xiao family, even if I gave her more silver, this matter still wouldn't get done. Do you not understand such a simple truth"
He finished speaking and looked at Jinxiu again, letting out a cold snort, "I used to think you were a stable and sensible maid, but now you're just as capricious as your mistress Third Miss, what Third Miss The current Third Miss is the one in front of you, not the one your former mistress gave birth to. " 。When I let her stay at home, I already made it clear that from now on, the position of the Third Miss will be hers alone. You are to call her Hongzhuang Miss only. If you can't remember this, there's no need for you to serve in Ye Mansion anymore. 。"Although Jinxiu was feeling resentful, she couldn't say anything more. She could only kneel down and apologize to Ye Jingcheng, as well as Ye Wushuang." 。Ye Wushuang's face was full of fear, "You don't have to kneel to me like this. You are the chief maid by the Second Madam's side, there is no need..." 。"Even if one is first-ranked, they are still a slave. 。"The night view immediately braced her, "Wushuang, you are my biological daughter, and also the most beloved daughter of mine." 。You have received the courtesy due to all the servants in this household, and they have all knelt before you. 。After finishing, he glanced towards the main house and sneered: “In the past, our family was strict with seniority, so the eldest and second misses were both on that side. But now I am the head of the family, and in the future, this order will also need to be changed.” 。Why don't we just line up separately Your family has your own young lady, and our family has our own. That's the best way. 。" Night Wen listened to this and also nodded, "Well, that's the best. Then Second Uncle, tell us, how should this family be divided" >e farther before stopping, then got out and put down the footstool. Seeing Ye Wenyan get out of the carriage, he said: “This is a station for resting horses. The servant will wait here for Miss Four a...
