Pearl in the Palm

Ye Lizhu faintly felt that she was a little uncomfortable again.

She pressed her heart and frowned without thinking too much.

Maybe it was because seeing her father again, her spirits improved so little.

It was getting late too, Ye Lizhu returned to the room, and several maids hurriedly gathered around and waited for her to undress.

Going back to the prime minister’s house, these rules are naturally different from those in the temple. In Mingfo Temple, Ye Lizhu takes care of herself daily, and never needs other people to take care of her. To return to the capital, she must be used to having so many people around her at any time.

Ye Lizhu suddenly remembered a very important thing.

My mother has passed away for eight years. During these eight years, did my father remarry and fill the house?

Ye Lizhu said to Grandma Chen: “My mother has passed away, is there a mistress in the family?”

Mother Chen didn’t dare to hide the eldest lady, she said: “The master straightened Aunt Wu six years ago. Mrs. Wu treats others generously on weekdays, and the lady will take care of you when she goes back.”

Ye Lizhu reluctantly nodded: “Father never mentioned this… Has there been a newcomer in the family?”

Grandma Chen shook her head and said: “Mrs. Wu has no children under her knees. The eldest son was still raising Mrs. Wu two years ago. Now he has entered a private school and lives in a private courtyard by himself.”

Ye Fuan is the prime minister after all, and his family has a lot of business. When Jiang Clan was there, Ye Fuan had a three-bedroom side room by his side. Wu Clan was the most outstanding one, with a gentle temperament and beautiful appearance. After Jiang Clan died, Ye Fuan straightened her up.

Mother Chen said again: “The eldest son is clever and wise, and everyone in the house loves the eldest son. Miss, after you go back, you will definitely love the eldest son. You shed the same blood after all.”

Ye Lizhu nodded.

If the mother is gone, if the Wu is virtuous and kind and can make everything go well with the father, she will not go against the Wu. However, Ye Lizhu only recognized her own mother, and never changed her slogan to call others a mother.

For the younger brother, Ye Lizhu wanted to see but did not dare to see. For so many years, the two hadn’t seen each other, Ye Lizhu was afraid that his brother would treat his sister as an outsider.

After all, I grew up outside.

Mother Chen said: “It’s getting late, and we have to hurry tomorrow. Miss, go to bed and rest.”

When Ye Lizhu lay on the bed, the maids blew out two candles and left two for lighting.

Both Grandma Chen and Grandma Li were resting outside, listening to the movements inside at any time.

Although the Wu family did nothing bad in these years, Ye Fuan became wary of the Wu family because of Ye Jiayou’s evil incident three years ago. The people who came to pick up Ye Lizhu this time, all the female relatives who could serve in front of Ye Lizhu were once He has been kind to Jiang family, and grew up in Ye’s house since he was a child, and has been slaves in Ye’s house for generations.

When Ye Lizhu woke up the next day, the feeling of being weighed down on her chest by the stone came up again.

She was dizzy for a while, and then slowly began to hold on to the edge of the bed. It was a little noisy outside, and the sound shook the sky. Ye Lizhu said, “What’s wrong outside?”

Mother Chen said, “His Royal Highness King Qin is about to leave. When he leaves, his officers will count the number of soldiers.”

Ye Lizhu nodded.

After she washed, King Qin’s people had already left here.

Ye Fuan got up early in the morning. He was downstairs, watching his daughter change her outfit from a distance. She was more delicate than any lady he had ever seen, and he was very proud: “Jiuzhu, go down the stairs slowly, you guys. Everyone is holding on to the young lady. If the young lady falls, you will not escape the blame.”

Ye Lizhu walked down slowly: “I just want to go by myself, and I’m not a three-year-old kid, so I have to be supported by someone wherever I go.”

Ye Fuan said: “In my father’s eyes, Zhuzhu will always be a little girl. Come, you can try this gouache glutinous rice balls, pine nuts, walnuts, roses, and sesame seeds as fillings, without too much sugar, put a little autumn oil, and Fragrant and sweet.”

Ye Fuan didn’t know if Ye Lizhu could eat meat after leaving the Ming Buddhist Temple. He specially asked people to cook some vegan dishes. The pots were all newly bought, and he was afraid that there was a bit of meat and fish that would make Ye Lizhu uncomfortable.

Ye Lizhu is a good young lady. The daughter of the prime minister’s mansion is only one head lower than the princess. She should have lived the most leisurely life, but she has been reciting the sutras in the temple for nearly ten years. Don’t mention how much Ye Fuan loves her daughter. Even if Ye Lizhu wanted the moon in the sky, he wanted to take it down for his baby girl.

Ye Lizhu looked at the exquisite white-glazed jade bi-shaped bowl in front of him. The soup in the bowl was clear, made of lily and white fungus. Inside were three quail egg-sized glutinous rice balls. The chef was a chef specially invited by Ye Fuan, and he took it with him all the way. Therefore, the taste of this glutinous rice ball is also very delicious.

Ye Lizhu tasted one, and said, “I asked my mother yesterday, and she said that you have helped Madam Wu upright. Dad, you can spoil the beads, but you can’t go too far. Mrs. Wu will feed you while you are cooking, and see you. It must be uncomfortable to spoil your children too much.”

Ye Fuan never felt sorry for women. He also loved Ye Lizhu’s mother Jiang. But this was mainly because Jiang was born noble, beautiful and talented, Jiang was the main house, and Ye Fuan loved her and respected her. Wu’s is just a side room for righting. In fact, he is still a slave in the family. It is no different from other side rooms. How could Ye Fuan treat her as his wife.

Ye Fuan said: “Zhuzhu don’t have to care about others’ opinions. You are father’s flesh and blood, father’s daughter. After so many years of suffering, father must compensate you before you get married. If the Wu family makes you unhappy, just don’t care. Tell Dad, Dad will be fair for you.”

Ye Lizhu nodded.

Ye Fuan said again: “You have a cousin from your grandmother’s side. The nickname is Jie Ran. You shouldn’t remember. Jie’er Ran’s father, your third uncle, was transferred to the capital four years ago. He did a marriage for Sister Ran, and he was transferred to Wanzhou two years later. Your grandmother heard that you were going home and asked Sister Ran to come to the capital with your aunt, so that Sister Ran could get married. I’m afraid that you will know that your mother is gone, and you will be sad and let your aunt accompany you. Soon after you return, Jie’er Ran and your aunt Jun will arrive in the capital.”

Ye Lizhu was still young when he left home. The Ye family’s branches are flourishing, and the family is huge. People in her family still don’t know how to recognize it, let alone grandmother’s side.

However, Ye Lizhu also vaguely remembered that her grandmother’s family was in Wanzhou and she was also a prominent family.

Ye Lizhu is not clear about this, but Ye Fuan is very clear.

Jiang is the only daughter of the old lady of the Jiang family, and she loves her very much at home. Although Mrs. Jiang had never seen Ye Lizhu, she loved her grandson’s daughter in her heart.

The Jun family is Mrs. Jiang’s favorite daughter-in-law. Let the Jun family come over to see if Ye Lizhu will be bullied by the Wu family. Secondly, the Jiang family and the Ye family’s relationship cannot be broken with the Jiang family’s death. .

Ye Lizhu is the maternal daughter of the Ye family. Ye Fuan returned with her eldest lady. He had just entered the city gate. Someone immediately heard news that the Wu family was waiting at the door with a group of female relatives and eldest son Ye Jiayou.

On a May day in the capital city, the big sun is shining, and the Wu family is wearing a dark blue robe. She stands at the forefront. Next to him is the grandson Ye Jiayou. The maid is holding an umbrella on both sides to shade, and on both sides are the side rooms of Liang and Zhou. .

Wu Shi lowered his head and whispered to Ye Jiayou in a soft voice: “I will see the eldest lady later, don’t you get too close to the eldest lady, have you heard? The eldest lady is weak and can’t touch her easily. The master loves her so much. Miss, you frightened her. When I look back, the master no longer spoils you like he used to.”

Ye Jiayou and Ye Lizhu were born by the same mother. The faces of the two are three-point similar. Ye Jiayou is only seven or eight years old. He is born very handsome. He wears a moon-white brocade and his black hair is tied into a pigtail. The eyes are clear and beautiful brown. When the Wu family approached, Ye Jiayou retreated to the side calmly.

At this moment, a young man outside the alley yelled: “Master’s carriage is coming!”

The people outside ran out to greet them, and the female relatives on Wu’s side quickly took the kerchief and wiped the sweat on their foreheads, adjusted their appearance, and smiled slightly.

At this time, everyone also heard the sound of carriages passing by. A dozen of the followers cleared the way, and when the carriage approached, they stopped, and Ye Fuan got out of the carriage first.

Wu’s smile was all over his face: “Master, you are back, where is the eldest lady? I have not seen the eldest lady for many years, and I think very much. I have already cleaned up the house of the eldest lady. It is in Yunxiang Pavilion. Come down, miss.”

Liang also smiled and said: “Madam is right. Everyone misses the eldest. Just now, the wife said that the eldest is weak and cannot be exposed to the wind and rain. Let us be careful in everything.”

Ye Fuan said with a straight face: “Zhuzhu is so good, why can’t it be blown by the wind and rain? Don’t do nothing all day long, it is not good to curse people behind.”

The Wu hurriedly squinted at the Liang, and the Liang said in a whisper: “Master, don’t be angry, it’s the concubine who has failed to speak.”

Wu Shi smiled and said, “Master, I’m so bored in the carriage, why don’t you let the young lady get down?”

Ye Fuan said: “Zhuzhu is asleep, the carriage carefully drove into the yard and brought it to Jingshui Xuan.”

Wu Shi was stunned: “Miss, can’t live in Yunxiang Pavilion?”

“No,” Ye Fuan said, “Go to Jingshui Xuan.”

Ye Jiayou shouted “Father” on the side, and Ye Fuan touched Ye Jiayou’s head: “I’m sweating all over here, why did the nanny let the son wait here on a hot day?”

Ye Jiayou’s nanny hurriedly said: “The son has never seen the eldest lady, this is—”

Ye Fuan said coldly: “The next time you come, don’t follow the son.”

He walked inside, and Ye Jiayou hurriedly followed: “Father, can I go and see Zhuzhu?”

Ye Fuan tapped on his forehead: “It’s not big or small. What is Zhuzhu? Call me sister. When you change your clothes and follow Dad into the palace, your majesty passed a dinner. When you come back at night, your sister woke up. .”

Ye Jiayou said: “You just came back, why did your majesty call you over at this time?”

Ye Fuan has never shy away from talking about the affairs of the court by Ye Jiayou. Ye Jiayou will also be an official in the court in the future. Although he is young, he has a deep mind.

Ye Fuan said: “The King Qin came to the capital. Your Majesty will host a banquet. Several cabinet ministers will go there. You can follow King Qin to see how others are. Don’t always fight with the dudes of Wang Shizi. , You need to read more and practice martial arts more so that you can grow up.”
