Family Has a Concubine

Ye Tangcai wants to raise a cat, but there is no cage at home.

So when the carriage was walking on the street, Qing'er ran to a shop and bought a big cage and came back, saying that she was afraid that it would escape if it was not familiar with the environment when it first arrived.

Back home, Ye Tangcai asked Qinger to put the cat in the iron cage. The master and servant squatted on the ground, staring at the cat inside.

I saw that it was a black cat with a whole body black, one eye didn't even have an eyeball, the other eye was ordinary golden yellow, the hair was dirty and messy, it was really ugly.

Maybe it was frightened, and he was spinning around in the iron cage, meowing non-stop, with an indescribably hoarse and shrill voice.

Qiuju and Huiran really couldn't like it, Qiuju said: "It barks like this, we dare not sleep at night."

Ye Tangcai said: "Let's dry her small fish, wait a few days for her to be cooked, and then we'll wash her and comb her hair."

Huiran sighed slightly, nodded, that's all there is to it.

"Let's put it under the poplar tree in the backyard." Ye Tangcai said, then picked up the cage, walked to the backyard, and put it under the tree. "Hui Ran, take half a penny and ask the cook to cook some small fish."

Huiran agreed and went out. After a while, she came back with the cooked fish and fed the cat. Then it calmed down and purred in the cage.

Ye Tangcai smiled slightly, then went back to the room to read a book.

After dinner, Chu Miaoshu came over: "Little sister-in-law, we are going to Prince Liang's Mansion tomorrow, when shall we leave?"

Ye Tangcai put down the book in his hand: "You guys decide."

Chu Miaoshu snorted: "Then tomorrow morning, let's wait in Yixiang Courtyard! By the way, what birthday gift is the sister-in-law preparing?" He said and looked at Ye Tangcai.

Ye Tangcai laughed after hearing this: "Aren't we going together? This is the relationship between the family. Isn't the birthday gift arranged by the family? The eldest sister is so funny that she actually asked me."

Chu Miaoshu's small face froze, and she said in a low voice: "I just think...the post was brought back by my sister-in-law."

"Oh, so big sister, are you planning to go?" Ye Tangcai laughed. "Okay, from now on, whether it's Prince Liang's Mansion or the Prince's Mansion, it's all my personal contacts. If it's not from my family, I can go there with my own gifts."

Chu Miaoshu was in a bad mood, and he only said one sentence: "It's just a joke...you're doing this and that, making people speechless." At the end of the speech, he actually felt aggrieved.

Ye Tangcai stopped talking to her, picked up the book and slowly flipped through it.

Chu Miaoshu had no choice but to turn around and leave embarrassingly.

Ye Tangcai looked at the book in her hand, and remembered the Princess Liang she met in Prince Liang's mansion last time, so she turned and went to search on her small bookshelf, and finally found the remaining two volumes of the storybook from last time. out.

After thinking about it, he ran to Lanzhuju, where Chu Yunpan was writing a policy theory, saw her coming, and then lay down on the window sill to look at him.

Chu Yunpan looked at her little face like a lotus with clear water, and his heart moved slightly, but his face was faint: "Do you have a cat?"

"Yes!" Ye Tangcai nodded, "I'm going to Prince Liang's Mansion tomorrow, do you want to go with the third master?"

Chu Yunpan said, "No."

"Why?"

Chu Yunpan said: "Most of the people who can go to Prince Liang's mansion are top-notch dignitaries, or the families of powerful officials. I have nothing to do with these people. Our family is like this... Outsiders see that they came in through random posts, you women Just go. I'll follow along, shameless, afraid of being blocked in a corner, asking me how it feels to marry a prostitute of the Hou family."

The corner of Ye Tangcai's mouth twitched: "I'm really sorry for that!" Then he left.

Seeing her listless back, Chu Yunpan lowered his head and pursed his lips into a smile.

Ye Tangcai also knew the key point of this post, but thought that Chu Yunpan was acquainted with the King of Liang, and wondered if he would use tomorrow to show up in the Prince of Liang's mansion to make troubles, so she came to ask.

I don't want him to do anything! But tomorrow there will be a big show at Prince Liang's Mansion! So Ye Tangcai was looking forward to it.

...

Early the next morning, Ye Tangcai washed up and went to Yixiang Courtyard.

Qin Shi, Jiang Xinxue, Chu Miaoshu and Chu Miaohua were waiting there early, and Aunt Bai was also drinking tea in the armchair.

"Mother." Ye Tangcai walked in and saluted.

"En." Qin replied lukewarmly.

Looking up, she saw that Chu Miaoshu's hair accessories were no doubt the same as yesterday, but the clothes were different. The upper body is covered with turmeric flowers, and the lower body is in a water-red double-breasted skirt. This color matching and attire are somewhat similar to Ye Tangcai's attire yesterday.

Ye Tangcai saw that Chu Miaoshu and Chu Miaohua had dressed up specially, so she knew that the three of them had to go together.

Qin coughed lightly: "Then you guys go!"

"Sister-in-law won't you go with us?" Chu Miaohua glanced at Jiang Xinxue.

Jiang Xinxue sneered in her heart, she didn't know how to get back the post, she didn't really think highly of Chu's family, she didn't have to be so shameless when she went there.

Moreover, this kind of occasion will definitely... She really doesn't want to go at all!

"Then let's go." Chu Miaoshu said.

"Wait!" A voice sounded, and everyone frowned.

Seeing Aunt Fei and Chu Congke rushing over panting, Aunt Fei said with a livid face, "Erlang just arrived, you are leaving!"

Qin Shi was taken aback, Erlang also wanted to go? She was so angry that her nose was crooked! "This kind of post... just let a few young girls go. The men don't have to go."

"Why don't you go?" Aunt Fei said, "This is a birthday party, we have a birthday present. And we have to go with girls, no men take it with us, what's it like?"

Qin's face was livid with anger.

"There are people going to the first room and the third room, why is there no one in the second room?" Aunt Fei's words spewed out like beads. Although the family has not yet been separated, Chu Feiyang and Chu Yunpan have already married, so they can be regarded as separated.

Qin didn't want to mess with her anymore, so she just said with a livid face, "OK, OK, let's go!"

Only then did Aunt Fei snort triumphantly, that was the birthday banquet of Prince Liang's residence, how could she not go! There are a lot of opportunities waiting for them.

Thinking of this, he secretly hated Ye Tangcai and Chu Miaoshu for having the opportunity to go to the Prince's Mansion.

Chu Congke brushed back a lock of hair hanging from his shoulders, and turned his head to show Ye Tang the most beautiful smile: "Sister and sister, let's go!"

Ye Tangcai only glanced at him, and saw that he had been specially dressed, wearing a white brocade robe with round collar, a silver crown on his head, a jade belt around his waist, a sachet and two jade pendants.

Why are you dressed so coquettishly? Are you going to hook up with a little girl?

Ye Tangcai didn't know that she had guessed it right!

Chu Congke went there with the aim of hooking up with a noble lady!

He was annoyed that Chu Yunpan married Ye Tangcai, so he thought he had to marry a prostitute. Suddenly learning that Chu Miaoshu got the post from Prince Liang's Mansion, he rushed over.

Those who can attend the birthday banquet of King Liang's Mansion, although there are people who sneak in like them, most of them are real noble girls. I must seize this opportunity, and maybe I can marry someone who is better than Ye Tangcai. The portal is even higher!

At that time, Xue Yinger, a lowly concubine, will be retired!

Chu Congke saw that he was dressed in such a jade forest style, but Ye Tangcai didn't even look at it, and his handsome face turned dark.

But I still couldn't help but want to talk to Ye Tangcai: "I heard that my brother and sister have gone to the Prince's Mansion, I wonder if this Prince's Mansion is fun?"

Ye Tangcai said: "The eldest sister has gone too."

Chu Miaoshu looked smug: "The Prince's Mansion is very prosperous. Even the maids are dressed more decently than we usually do. I also met His Royal Highness Prince and King Liang."

Chu Congke listened, wishing he could go with him, that's the prince! If he could get the favor of the prince, he would be able to be named a marquis and worship his prime minister.

Thinking of this, he became excited: "Next time, I will send my younger siblings and elder sister to go together."

"Yes yes yes, let your second brother take you there next time." Aunt Fei said hastily.

Ye Tangcai's eyes flashed with sarcasm, hehehe.

Qin's complexion is dark, an ambitious bastard! He said coldly: "They are going to the princess concubine's house to make flowers. What is Erlang doing as a foreigner? Even if there is a gift, there will be Dalang! Erlang should prepare well for next month's autumn!"

Chu Congke and Aunt Fei's faces turned green and pale, but they couldn't refute.

"Let's go, little sister-in-law." Chu Miaohua pulled Ye Tangcai out of the room with Chu Miaoshu.

Several people went all the way to Chuihuamen, Zhu Lunhuagai's big carriage was already waiting there, and the three of them got into the carriage with their maids respectively. Chu Congke rode ahead on horseback.
