There is Room For the Poor Daughter

The New Year is approaching, and the entire capital is immersed in joy.

Since there is no foundation and connections in Beijing, compared to other families who constantly visit relatives and friends, the Wang family is a bit deserted. No one invites them as guests, and no one visits them.

Master Wang and his two sons are okay, they can go out every day, and they are not boring, but the female family members at home are a little bored.

In particular, the mother and daughter of the Wang family are still dreaming of climbing high branches. They don't go out to socialize.

For the past two days, Miss Wang's face has been stinky. When she looked at Miss Wang, some noses were not eyes or eyes.

Miss Wang was very angry with her sister's attitude. When Miss Wang squinted at her again, she asked with a serious face, "Second sister, where did I provoke you?"

Miss Wang had been holding it back for two days, and she couldn't hold it any longer. As soon as she heard the question from Miss Wang, she immediately expressed her dissatisfaction: "Last time we went to Yan's house, if it wasn't for the elder sister who stopped Ye Yueying Go, the Yan family won't annoy us."

"With the introduction of Yan's family, maybe we have already met other female relatives, so we don't need to stay at home and worry about it like now."

"I can hear my eldest brother. Because Princess Weiyuan returned to Beijing, the Yan family held several banquets. Princess Xungui and the family members of dignitaries went to a lot."

Miss Wang's face was ugly, and she sneered: "Second sister, your ability to shirk responsibility is really good enough. Was it my own idea not to let Ye Yueying go?"

Miss Wang sneered back: "My mother and I didn't mean that. If you didn't mention it, eldest sister, how would we have thought of not letting Ye Yueying go?"

Mrs. Wang was so angry that she saw that Mrs. Wang didn't stop her sister. It was obvious that she also thought so, and her eyes were red with grievance.

If it wasn't for her mother and sister who agreed, and she was the only one who stopped Ye Yueying, how could she stop Ye Yueying, now it's okay, the fault is all blamed on her.

Miss Wang Er couldn't get used to Miss Wang's tendency to cry at every turn: "eldest sister, you are crying more and more now, I just said a few words casually. Is this how you are? It seems like I bullied you."

Hearing this, Miss Wang became even more angry: "you"

Seeing that the two daughters were arguing, Mrs. Wang had to stop her: "Okay, you all give me some rest, I'm not annoying enough, right?"

In Youzhou, during Chinese New Year every year, how could the Wang family be so deserted.

Every day at the end of the year, officials and female relatives and local squires come to visit with the annual ceremony. Tired is tired, but she is also really happy, and she enjoys the flattery of others.

But when she came to the capital, let alone curry favor, she was a dignified lady who knew her, but she was reduced to staying at home and doing nothing.

The gap before and after has already made her feel very uncomfortable. The other day, because of Ye Yueying, she was reprimanded by the master in front of the children, which made her even more annoyed.

Now that the two daughters are still making trouble, they are really not considerate and caring at all.

Miss Wang Er curled her lips: "Mother, isn't my daughter worried about her family and her eldest sister? If we can integrate into the female family circle in the capital, not only the father will not have to worry, but even the eldest sister will have a good future. "

Miss Wang sneered: "Second sister is more and more able to talk now. Are you doing it for others? I think you are worried about your own marriage, right?"

Miss Wang Er didn't deny it, and said confidently: "Yes, I'm worried about my marriage, but that doesn't prevent me from worrying about my family and eldest sister."

Without waiting for Miss Wang to speak, she continued: "Big sister, July next year will be your wedding date with Second Young Master Qi. If you don't hurry, I'm afraid you will really marry back to Youzhou."

These words made Miss Wang speechless.

Seeing this, Wang Er girl raised her eyebrows proudly.

Mrs. Wang glared at her little daughter and motioned her to calm down. After a while of silence, she said to herself: "It seems that the Ye family has no face in the Yan family. If the Yan family is really old with the Ye family, last time Ye Yueying didn't go, and for the next few banquets, it's time for another invitation."

Miss Wang nodded in agreement: "Isn't that right, let's look forward to a game in vain, mother, you also sent some good things to that Ye Yueying."

Said, with a mocking expression on his face.

"And that little prince Xiao, I thought Ye Yueying was so capable, that she could really hook up with the prince, but look at these days, has that noble little prince come to talk to her again?"

"I see, the little prince is just playing around with Ye Yueying. It is estimated that he has seen many gentle and virtuous girls. When he suddenly saw Ye Yueying with an ice face, his eyes lit up."

"When the little prince returns to the palace to calm down, his mind will naturally clear up. It's better for the girl who married to go home to warm her heart. Who can stand facing a cold-hearted ice cube all day long."

Mrs. Wang shook her head and said, "I hope that Xiao Wangye really likes Ye Yueying. If Ye Yueying really enters the palace as a concubine, she can also pave the way for your father and two older brothers, and even the two of you can follow suit."

Hearing this, Miss Wang and Miss Wang stopped talking. The two knew that Mrs. Wang was right, but when they thought that Ye Yueying could climb up to someone as outstanding as Xiao Xiaowang, they couldn't help but feel jealous.

That evening, Mr. Wang returned with his two sons smiling.

Mrs. Wang and her two daughters were very happy to learn that the father and son met Mr. Qian and his son in the teahouse today.

Miss Wang said with a smile: "I knew that with the talents of my father and two older brothers, even without Ye Yueying and without the Ye family, our family would be able to establish a foothold in the capital."

This is very pleasing to Mr. Wang's ears, and he praised the second girl Wang with a smile: "By the way, tomorrow the Qian family is going to sing a church, so he gave me a post, and tomorrow our family will go to the Qian family to listen to the opera. ."

You can go out as a guest, Mrs. Wang, mother and daughter are very happy.

This time, Mrs. Wang did not make a private decision, but asked Mr. Wang directly: "Do you want to take Yueying?"

Hearing this, Mr. Wang fell silent.

Last time, in front of Xiao Xiaowang and Wu Gongzi, the niece didn't show any respect for him at all, and it hurts his heart to think about it.

Hmph, this niece thinks she has climbed the high branch, so she doesn't need the Wang family.

It's a pity that she seems to think too highly of herself. That little prince Xiao doesn't seem to pay much attention to her. Otherwise, why didn't the Yan family hold a banquet during this period of time, why didn't she invite her once?

Also, what is the background of Xiao Xiaowang, and what is the background of the niece? Even if the brother-in-law is still alive, the Ye family's family background cannot reach the palace.

Although he regretted not being able to have a relationship with the palace, his niece's attitude chilled him. A niece who did not go to the Wang family, no matter how well she married, would not help the Wang family. In this case, it would be better to let him decide her decision. My dear, this can also help the Wang family.

"Yueying has an unpleasant temperament, so I won't take her with me, so as not to offend the nobles."

When Mrs. Wang heard this, the corners of her mouth suddenly rose.

Young Master Wang frowned, but his father didn't notice, but he understood that the reason why Mr. Qian took the initiative to greet them today was because his father mentioned that Xiao Xiaowang came to the door.

Do you want to bring your cousin?

Looking at the mother and two younger sisters who were happily talking about tomorrow's dress problem, Mr. Wang thought for a while, and finally chose silence.

Going to Qian's house to listen to the play, it seems that it is useless whether my cousin goes or not. In that case, let's make my father, mother and sisters happy.

The son and daughter-in-law left Ye Yueying to go to the banquet again. Madam Wang was trembling with anger, and she couldn't stop slapping her hands and sitting down: "How did I give birth to such a ruthless and unrighteous son!"

Ye Yueying persuaded for a while before she persuaded the old lady to stop.

When the old lady took a rest, Ye Yueying left the room, looked at the empty sky, and let out a long breath.

Since ancient times, kindness is the most difficult to repay, because of the grace of the Wang family for shelter, no matter how much property the Wang family has misappropriated from the Ye family, no matter how badly they treat her, she has recognized them all.

For her uncle's family who has no feelings, she has no burden in her heart. When she leaves Wang's family in the future, no matter how good or bad the future is, she doesn't need to worry about it, she is happy and relaxed.

Now this is very good, and the two do not owe each other!

At this moment, the steward suddenly entered the yard in a hurry, and saw Ye Yueying's eyes suddenly lit up: "Miss Biao, there are two maids at the door, saying that they are from the third lady of the Yan family, and they are here to give our family a New Year's gift. You quickly inform the old lady, the lady is not at home, and you have to trouble the old lady to see the guest."

Yan family!

Ye Yueying couldn't help tightening the jade pendant around her waist, and quickly walked into the room.

The old lady in the room had already heard the steward's words. She had already got up and was putting on her clothes, and she said, "Yingying, don't make people wait for a long time, go and greet you quickly."

Ye Yueying stood still, thought for a while, and said, "Grandmother, she's just a mammy in charge. I don't need to go meet her in person."

When Mrs. Wang heard this, she hurriedly patted her head: "Oh, look at me, I'm really confused, although the Wang family is not as good as the Yan family, but you really shouldn't let a young lady like you go to greet the next person. "

Hospitality can be enthusiastic, but it can’t be too petty, otherwise it will definitely be looked down upon.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Wang asked the mammy beside her to go with the steward to greet her.

When the steward brought the servants of the Yan family over, Mrs. Wang was sitting upright in the living room, while Ye Yueying was standing by her side.

Walking in the forefront is Zhou Jingwan's maid, Yan Liu, and next to her is Gu Yu next to Daohua.

"Slave Yan Liu, please say goodbye to the old lady and Miss Ye."

Gu Yu saluted along with the other maids, and did not introduce herself.

She followed this time mainly to see Miss Ye for the princess.

Mrs. Wang quickly got someone to get up, and then pulled Ye Yueying to introduce: "This is the old niece. The family went to Qian's house to listen to the opera today, but she insisted on staying at home to take care of me."

Yan Liu immediately praised: "Miss Ye is really filial, and the old lady is blessed."

Just as Yan Liushi and Madam Wang were chatting with each other, Gu Yu began to look at Ye Yueying with a calm expression.

Although the prince and concubine have long said that the marriage of the three brothers and sisters of the little prince is mainly based on what they like, but this does not mean that the prince and princess don't care about anything.

After learning that the little prince was interested in Miss Ye, the prince immediately sent someone to inquire about everything about the Wang family and the Ye family.

This time I came to Wang's house, nominally in the name of Yan Sanye to take care of the old friend's orphans, but it was actually the meaning of the princess, and the purpose was to see Miss Ye.

Gu Yu silently observed Ye Yueying beside Old Madam Wang. Mmmm, she was elegant, elegant, and slender. Her whole body exuded a hint of coldness, which made people look more and more cold and arrogant.

It's no wonder that the little prince can be tempted. The most eye-catching thing about Miss Ye is not her appearance, but her cold and arrogant temperament like the snow lotus in the Tianshan Mountains.

Ye Yueying noticed Gu Yu's scrutiny, and silently glanced at her, and at a glance she could see that her bearing was different from that of ordinary servants.

This is not an ordinary mammy, the momentum of ordinary mammy will not be so strong!

Don't look at the fact that the servants who came this time are headed by this grandmother Liu who is talking to her grandmother. In fact, Liu mama looks at this mama from time to time.

Ye Yueying had some vague guesses about this person's identity, but she didn't feel nervous or at a loss because of it.

Before the accident in the Ye family, the female relatives who came and went in and out of the Ye family were all family members of the highest officials in Liaodong.

And because her father only had her one child, she was raised as a boy since she was a child. Not only did she read and understand like a boy, but her family did not shy away from her when it comes to all kinds of worldly knowledge outside.

Even if the other party was a servant of the palace, she didn't feel much ups and downs.

Just thinking of the fact that King Weiyuan and Princess Weiyuan returned to Beijing not long ago, Ye Yueying's expression became a little erratic, she grabbed the jade pendant around her waist and thought about Xiao Moxi.

Was he the one who told the prince and princess something, that's why they went back to Beijing?

Mrs. Yan Liu and Mrs. Wang chatted about two cups of tea, and after delivering the New Year gift, they got up and prepared to leave.

Before leaving, Gu Yu opened his mouth and looked at Ye Yueying with a smile: "Miss Ye has just entered the capital, so she should attend more gatherings of the ladies. My girl will hold a lantern festival in the mansion on the sixth day of the new year, so she will post a message at that time. coming."

Yan Liushi took the words with a smile and looked at Mrs. Wang: "That's right, at this age, it's time for a girl to go out for a walk. I didn't see Miss Ye last time. My grandma and Mrs. are very sorry. Woolen cloth."

Mrs. Wang smiled and hurriedly responded: "The old man must urge her to go."

Ye Yueying sent the two to the gate of the courtyard, watched the maid send them out of the gate, and then turned back to the house.

In the room, Mrs. Wang was looking at the New Year's gift from the Yan family: "It really is a big family, and the New Year's gift is more valuable than other families." After speaking, she paused and looked at Ye Yueying.

"The Yan family has given us a gift for the new year, and we should return the gift. Yingying, you can quickly draw up a list and take the money from me. We have to return the gift, but we can't make people feel that our family is rude."

Ye Yueying shook her head: "Grandmother, how can I take your money? I have money, don't worry about it, I will handle it."

The Ye family's assets on the bright side were taken over by the Wang family, but the portable and easy-to-carry bank notes were all in Ye Yueying's hands.

Therefore, Ye Yueying is not short of money.

Mrs. Wang also knew about this, so she didn't say much.

For the Yan family's New Year's gift, Mrs. Wang left the food that was not easy to keep, and Xuehua sent all the rest to Ye Yueying's room.

"Your aunt has shallow eyelids and can't see good things. Since you are returning the gift, you should keep these things."

The two are together!
