Family Has a Concubine

"I've been thinking about Aunt Ting's yam pork rib soup for a long time, and I can finally drink it today." Ye Yun chuckled and smacked her mouth.

While Yin Tingniang was putting the books on the bookshelf into the bookcase, her eyes flickered slightly, she looked at Xu Rui, and then smiled meaningfully: "Brother Yun, let's do it next time, I'm afraid it won't work today .”

"Why?" Ye Yun looked puzzled.

Xu Rui smiled without saying a word, with a mysterious look on his face.

Ye Yun was even more puzzled, and tilted her head to look at Yin Tingniang: "Aunt Ting, Ruidi came back today, and Dad is not here. Let's cook a table of delicious food, and we can congratulate Ruidi on his promotion."

"But, I really have something to do today." Xu Rui chuckled.

"What's the matter? Is there something you're hiding from me?" Ye Yun pretended to be suspicious, and became even more curious.

"Guess what?" Xu Rui suddenly smiled.

"You're dating someone else, aren't you?" Ye Yun joked.

"Yes, I just made an appointment with someone else." Yin Tingniang looked over with a smile on her small oval face.

Ye Yun was startled, pretending to be displeased: "Who is it? More important than me?"

"Yes!" Xu Rui still nodded.

"Hey, I don't believe it." Ye Yun snorted softly, but he was considerate when he saw that they were repeatedly pushing back, so he said, "I see, I must invite Master Yao to dinner, right?"

Xu Rui and Yin Tingniang looked at each other and smiled happily, Xu Rui said, "What do you think?"

"What did you say I said, okay, I'm still the kind of ignorant person? Ruidi was able to win, and he was also cultivated by Mr. Yao, so I will thank him first." Ye Yun smiled.

Xu Rui said: "Sure enough, elder brother is the most sensible."

"It goes without saying." Ye Yun patted Xu Rui's shoulder: "Congratulate them first, I'll come back tomorrow, and then you have to prepare my favorite yam pork rib soup."

Although Ye Yun was a little disappointed that he couldn't have dinner with their mother and son today, seeing their mother and son happy because of him, he felt a sense of accomplishment and felt warm in his heart.

Ye Yun whistled and left.

Yin Tingniang watched him leave the study, and when he walked through the courtyard, she greeted Chen Ma before finally leaving the courtyard.

Only then did Yin Tingniang look away, and with a snort, she laughed: "Brother Yun...it's getting more and more funny."

"Hehe, yes!" Xu Rui smiled gently, but deep mockery flashed across his eyes.

The mother and son tidied up the things in the house and changed their clothes before going out.

The two sat in a pony carriage and walked for more than a quarter of an hour before they arrived at the best restaurant in the capital, where they simmered all over the world.

When the mother and son entered the restaurant, they saw the elegant decoration in the lobby. Immediately, a waiter greeted him courteously: "Both, do you have a reservation?"

"Already booked, the Bailu elegant room on the second floor." Xu Rui said.

"Okay, please." Xiaoer smiled and led the two upstairs, passed several wing rooms, and stopped at the third from the bottom.

I saw a nanmu sign hanging in front of the exquisitely carved wooden door, with the words "Bailu Yajian" written on it.

"Please." Xiao Er pushed open the door.

Yin Tingniang and Xu Rui walked in, and Xiao Er closed the door.

The entrance is a big Yuyue Longmen screen, bypassing the screen, you will see a big round table covered with red silk.

Under the window are two nanmu grand master chairs carved with peony balls, and a thin man is standing facing out of the window with his back to them.

The man was wearing a black cloth crown and a brocade gown with navy blue flowers, his figure was slightly bent, and he turned around when he heard the sound. It was none other than Ye Hewen.

When Ye Hewen saw Xu Rui, mother and son, his old face was a little dazed.

This was the first time he saw his grandson so close, and also the first time he had contact with him.

I saw the person in front of me wearing a standard scholar's robe with gray and white with blue edges, and wearing a black scholar's soft hat. His appearance was a little bit like Yin Tingniang's. He was not very handsome, but he was full of bookishness, just like a student who had read a lot of poetry and books.

This is exactly the image of his grandson in his dreams!

Ye Hewen only felt his heart surge, and his eye circles turned red in an instant. He twitched his lips and wanted to call him, but he was so arrogant in his heart that he didn't call out.

But Xu Rui took two steps forward, looked at him moved, and bowed to him: "Grandfather."

Hearing this "grandfather", Ye Hewen's arrogance finally collapsed, and he hurriedly stepped forward to support him: "Get up! Good boy... Really, there is no need to be polite."

"I want it." Xu Rui sniffled, with red eyes, and simply ran down with a plop: "The grandson has always admired his grandfather, but... mother told the grandson, we can't destroy the peace of the grandfather's house, I will never be able to recognize him for the rest of my life. My grandson is sad... I can only think of my grandfather in my heart, and look at him from afar. How could I have imagined that... there will be a day when I will recognize my grandfather."

After speaking, he bent down and kowtowed to Ye Hewen.

Ye Hewen's nose was sore. Seeing Xu Rui kowtow, he nodded straightly: "Okay! My good grandson!"

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to help him up. When he saw Yin Tingniang behind him, Ye Hewen frowned. He had always hated Yin Tingniang before, but now he wanted to reconcile with her, so he was a little embarrassed and at a loss.

Xu Rui said: "Over the years, I have endured hardships in the countryside. I was so poor that I almost stopped my studies. If it wasn't for my mother washing clothes for the wealthy family every day, I would not be able to continue my studies, and I would not be where I am today."

Seeing Yin Tingniang's soft and weak appearance again, Ye Hewen's face softened a little: "Sit down, don't stand."

Several people sat down at the round table, Ye Hewen said: "How did you do in the exam?"

Xu Ruidao: "The state government recorded 143 candidates, and I got 77."

Ye Hewen saw that the ranking was not as good as Chu Yunpan, but this was his grandson, so he was naturally better than Chu Yunpan. Didn't you say it at Zhang's house yesterday, Chu Yunpan was lucky. So his grandson is the most powerful.

"Rui'er is already very powerful." Ye Hewen praised.

Then Xu Rui talked about how he studied hard in the countryside, how hard it was to enter the examination room, etc. Ye Hewen frowned and laughed at the moment.

I felt a burst of emotion in my heart, this is the correct way to open up a chat with a grandson!

Ye Hewen looked guilty: "You won the exam, and you should have a big feast at home, but now... I can only wrong you here."

"It's the best gift for me to recognize what my grandfather said." Xu Rui said.

"Since you have won the exam, let's also talk about recognizing your ancestors and returning to your ancestors." Ye Hewen was a little excited as he spoke.

He wished he could take Xu Rui home immediately, so that the whole world would know that he also had a grandson who could study. And already won! No worse than others!

"Grandson is also looking forward to recognizing his ancestors as soon as possible." Xu Rui's face was filled with anticipation, "But I've already thought about it. If you recognize him now...it's not that simple, and I'm afraid someone will get into trouble."

"Whoever dares to make trouble, I'll abolish him!" Ye Hewen snorted coldly, and the first thing that came to mind was Ye Tangcai and Wen's, "And it's not difficult, as long as your grandmother and I admit it, your mother is Your father's concubine, you are the blood of our Ye family, if they play around, they can't do anything to us."

Xu Rui's downcast eyes sank slightly, and he said: "But now my father is still in prison. If I admit him again, I don't know what will happen at home. Next year I will be in the spring. Why don't you study hard outside and wait until I go to high school?" , and enter the door gracefully."

In fact, Ye Hewen also had the same idea, but he couldn't help but recognize his grandson!

Now that Xu Rui proposed rationally, Ye Hewen stopped his thoughts, nodded and said: "Okay, he really deserves to be my grandson, calm and stable! Like me!"

If you really admit it, I'm afraid the whole family will explode.

Not only Ye Tangcai and Wen's family, but also the second and third bedrooms will also make trouble, and it will be bad if Rui'er can't study in peace. It's better to just stay outside and tell the truth after a blockbuster.

Thinking about it, Ye Hewen was both excited and playful. At that time, Xinke Jinshi... No, Xinke No. 1 Scholar or Tanhua is his own grandson, Zhang Zan, an old man, will surely roll his eyes out!

The more I think about it, the more beautiful it becomes, and the more I think about it, the more excited I become.

"When I returned to my hometown to study, I met Master Cheng. Although he is not as famous as Master Yao, he has outstanding knowledge, which is even more helpful than Master Yao to me. Therefore, I will rest for a few days at this time. After that, I will go back to the countryside to study hard." Xu Rui's eyes flashed a firm and cruel light.

Next spring, he must win! must! To repay Ye Tangcai's revenge against the officials for framing them last time.

"Going back again?" Ye Hewen just recognized his grandson, and he only wished to see him every day, but if he didn't want to, he would go away again. But thinking of his future, he nodded, "Then you have to be careful, I will send a few more people to serve you."

"Then I would like to thank my grandfather." Xu Rui said, "This time my mother will go back with me, and after the new year, I will come back to participate in the Spring Festival."

"Don't worry, old man, I will definitely take good care of Rui'er, and then I will return the old man with a grandson named on the gold list." Yin Tingniang's voice was soft and timid, but it was full of tenacity.

"Okay, okay!" Ye Hewen nodded with tears in his eyes, "This is just like my grandson of Ye Hewen." Speaking of this, I couldn't help but think of Ye Yun and Ye Rong, and I felt disgusted in my heart, "You read it carefully, In the future, the Nuoda family property of the Hou Mansion of Jing'an will be handed over to you."

"This..." Xu Rui raised his head in surprise, "The family business should be handed over to the eldest brother."

"What does that bastard know!" Ye Hewen snorted coldly, "I don't want to make progress, and I don't want to study. I walk around cats and dogs all day long, and don't do my job. If the family is in his hands, there is no need to defeat the family."

"But... Brother Yun is the eldest son after all! How could..." Yin Tingniang said with a terrified expression.

"You're so kind!" Ye Hewen snorted coldly, "It's because of your stupidity that it took me so long to know that I have a grandson. Otherwise, Rui'er would have recognized her ancestors long ago."

Yin Tingniang bowed her head and made no sound.

"Okay, the matter is decided like this." Ye Hewen said.

This, Xiaoer knocked on the door, Ye Hewen let in, and Xiaoer brought someone to serve.

After drinking and eating, Ye Hewen gave Xu Ruixu all kinds of precious supplements, as well as some brushes and inkstones from his collection, and talked for a long time, and the three didn't leave until Shenshi in the afternoon.

For fear of being recognized by others, Ye Hewen went out first, Xu Rui and Yin Tingniang went out after a while.

Ye Hewen walked out of the gate of Stewed Taste World, and saw a familiar figure on the street with people coming and going.

It was none other than Ye Yun.

Ye Yun was wearing a brocade gown with a round collar of silk with a sapphire blue calamus pattern. He was handsome, with a silver crown on his head and an octagonal birdcage in his hand. He was shopping with a vendor in front of a small stall.

Seeing him, Ye Hewen felt bored for a while, and thought of Xu Rui's plain scholar's robe, full of bookishness. Compared with it, Ye Yun is a typical dandy image!

"Ah... Zu, grandfather!" Ye Yun turned around and saw Ye Hewen, he was shocked, his eyes moved, as if he wanted to rub the soles of his feet with oil. He was usually most afraid of his grandfather, every time he saw him, his grandfather would either scold him or stare at him.

Seeing his appearance, Ye Hewen only glanced at him lightly, then turned and left.

"This..." Ye Yun was taken aback. In the past, his grandfather either scolded or stared at him, but now he let him go so easily?

Ye Yun breathed a sigh of relief, then laughed, thinking about it, today was a lucky day.

Ye Yun was so happy that he was about to whistle, but he was taken aback when he didn't want to, seeing Xu Rui and Yin Tingniang coming out of the gate of Braised Flavor World, he was startled, and rushed forward: "Tingniang, Brother Rui."

Xu Rui and Yin Tingniang were taken aback, Xu Rui said, "Brother."

"You guys just now..." Ye Yun thought for a while before saying, "Have you met your grandfather? Just now I saw my grandfather also come out of this building. It scared me to death."

Xu Rui smiled meaningfully: "What do you think?"

Seeing that he was smiling, Ye Yun also burst out laughing: "Of course not! Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to laugh."

The last time Da Wen's made a fuss about suing the officials, although father said that Aunt Ting saved him, and grandfather defended Aunt Ting and the others, but with his temperament, grandfather must still hate Aunt Ting and Ruidi now, if the three meet, Grandfather might accuse them.

"By the way, has the person you invited left?" Ye Yun said. "Did you enjoy your meal this time?"

"Hehe, let's go. Let's have dinner together, so we will be happy." Xu Rui said with a smile.

Ye Yun thought of Ye Hewen just now, so he patted Xu Rui on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, Brother Rui, after Dad comes out, we will work together to persuade Grandpa to let you in. After entering, I will definitely protect you well. "

"Brother treats me very well, but brother, can you really protect me?" Xu Rui looked suspicious.

Ye Yun was a little unhappy when he questioned her. She patted her chest and said, "Why can't I protect you? Even now... it may be a bit reluctant now, but there will definitely be no problems in the future. I am also the eldest son, You are the heir of this family, and this family property is mine, so I can't protect you?"

Xu Rui thought of what Ye Hewen said to him just now, the smile in his eyes became more real, and he patted Ye Yun on the shoulder happily: "Brother, then I will not be polite."

"Naturally! You're still being polite to me!"

Yin Tingniang watched from the side, and felt that Ye Yun was getting more and more amusing, and she really couldn't bear to play to death so soon! In a good mood, he said softly: "Brother Yun, didn't you say you want to drink yam pork rib soup? I'll go buy ribs now and go back to make soup."

"Ah, that's great!" Seeing that she was kind to him, Ye Yun felt warm in his heart. "Let's go, Ruidi, let's pick out ribs and go shopping with Aunt Ting. Even if we are big men, it is filial piety to accompany the elders!"

Xu Rui and Yin Tingniang were really happy this time, they smiled more and more warmly, and turned around with Ye Yun to blend into the crowd.

Qing'er got out of a small stall selling buns, looked at the few people who disappeared into the crowd, and snorted coldly.

"Brother, have you been hiding here enough?" the vendor said displeasedly.

"Enough is enough." Qing'er chuckled, "Boss, give me ten meat buns and three steamed dumplings."

The peddler was originally unhappy that Qing'er was hiding here, but he didn't want Qing'er to actually do business for him, and even buy so much at once, so he immediately grinned, "Okay!"

After finishing speaking, he made ten steaming big meat buns for Qing'er.

Qing'er rushed back with ten meat buns and three steamed dumplings.

Qiongmingxuan——

Ye Tangcai and Huiran Qiuju were sitting under the banana tree in the courtyard, waiting for Qing'er to buy the delicious hibiscus cake.

No, Qing'er brought back ten meat buns and three-point steamed dumplings.

Ye Tangcai looked at the meat buns and steamed dumplings on the table, and was speechless: "Qing'er, even if you don't have hibiscus crisps, you don't have to buy so many buns at once, do you?"

"That's right! There's no need to cook at night." Qiuju said.

"I'm going to line up again at Braised Flavor World, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back at night." Qing'er said.

"Didn't you go out early in the morning?" Qiu Ju tilted her head, puzzled.

"Yes! But I met a few old acquaintances." Qing'er chuckled, "I saw the old man and Yin Tingniang's mother and son eating together in the stewed flavor world, and I just watched from outside. Later, I saw that they met the eldest son, the old man I ignored him and left, but Yin Tingniang and Xu Rui who came out later chatted happily with him."

As he spoke, he imitated what the mother and son had said to Ye Yun.

"Hmph!" Ye Tangcai's eyes flashed ridicule: "It seems that my good grandfather has 'recognized' Xu Rui! He recognized such a good grandson, why would he look at my stupid brother again."

"Girl...then our plan..." Qiuju said.

"I expected that they wouldn't get started so soon." Ye Tangcai's plan was to expose Xu Rui as not his grandson when Xu Rui was promoted and Xu Rui got started. "They are celebrating secretly now. It can be seen that my guess is right. Xu Rui will not 'recognize the ancestors' for the time being."

"Then when will we expose it!" Qiu Ju became impatient, poking her small mouth.

Just as she was talking, Huiran called out, "Third Master."

Ye Tang was startled, turned around, and saw Chu Yunpan walking into the yard.

Chu Yunpan came over and sat down opposite Ye Tangcai: "Last time, you asked... the person I was looking for has been found."

"What, really?" Ye Tangcai's eyes lit up, "Xu Dashi?"

"Yes." Chu Yunpan nodded, "It's confirmed there." He was talking about Kang Wang's army in the northwest, "It's just... which one do you want?"

"Which one do you want?" Ye Tangcai tilted her head, puzzled.
