Chapter 64 The Queen Mother's Gift

When she was in the front yard in the morning, Bai Heran asked for a long time about the silver spent on holding a birthday party for Ye and the source of the birthday party that Ye received. As the old lady of Duke Wen Guo’s Mansion, she had not calculated the account before, but she just came through Ye’s house. Her voice was worse than that of a year. So what if she forgets? Is it cost? It would be said that she would ask for money when she holds a birthday party for her daughter-in-law. But what if she doesn’t want it?

Why is it expensive to hold banquets every year? Ye’s birthday gifts received by his family were carried into Fuxi Courtyard in boxes. When he turned around, he said that the government’s expenses were high and the public was deficit, so that the women in the palace would save some money?

Over the years, if the Hong family had not helped her openly and secretly, she would have been unable to live her life in Jinrongyuan, let alone Bai Heran's life in the past.

So the old lady was particularly able to understand what Bai Heran mentioned today, so she told Madam Li, "You are going to the account booklet that has been in the account for nearly a year, so she said that I want to take a look."

Madam Li hesitated a little, "Old Madam, will it be there in Fuxiyuan do this..."

The old lady groaned, "Aran is right. If you continue to be timid, this Duke Wenguo Mansion will have its surname Ye. No one can save us by then."

"But can I really find out the problem?" Madam Li sighed helplessly, "It's certain that she is doing something, but you know it well, your hands and feet are moving in the dark. The books we can get are all beautifully done and can't catch any mistakes." "I know." The old lady waved her hand, "Just go and get it. Even if it's a beautiful book, as long as it's in our hands, it will be a shocking reminder to Ye. Don't think that the Bai family is a fool, let her control it. From now on, the big and small things in this mansion will be old.

You can't just look at it with your eyes."

Madam Li learned about the old lady's intentions, so she stopped asking and took two little maids to the account room. Since Ye entered the door, Bai Xingyan took the initiative to find the old lady and wanted to leave. The old lady had never read the account book for so many years, so Madam Li suddenly came to ask for it, and the account room was indeed caught off guard. But she had to give it to her, after all, the old lady was

elder.

Therefore, Madam Li’s account book was quite smooth.

But as soon as she left the tent, someone sneaked out and handed the news to the Fuxiyuan.

When Ye heard the news, he was so angry that he fell two tea bowls that had just been cooked and delivered.

Shuanghuan quickly comforted her: "What can be taken away from left and right is superficial kung fu. No one can see the real account book except you, Madam."

Ye took a deep breath and forced his anger down. She told Shuanghuan: "Go and remind the other end of the accounting room that the real accounting book must be collected and must not be exposed to anyone."

Shuanghuan nodded, but went there immediately, "The person sent by the old lady has just left, and I will go there later to avoid being eye-catching. If the lady is really worried about the account book, why not take it back and keep it yourself?" Ye shook his hand, "No. I am not a wall of iron. Once I leave this room, I need to always hold my identity and feel emotional and dare not make any mistakes. The master in the room often comes, and it will inevitably be revealed over time. Who do you think that Bai Xingyan is? He is not

Fearing me, he was afraid of the empress dowager in the palace and the power of my grandfather's family. Look at the maids and mothers outside, they obeyed me on the surface, but in fact no one knew which of them was the eyeliner arranged by the master."

Shuanghuan also calmed down and said helplessly: "After so many years, we always want to put people in Wutong Garden, but unfortunately we have never succeeded. It seems that the master has always been on guard against his wife. Now there is another evil second lady, and the wife must be more careful in the future." Ye snorted coldly, "Don't be too nervous, scare yourself. Although I have not paid a birthday gift to the public office in recent years, it was the gift I received after all, and the Bai family would not be too embarrassed to ask for it. They are nothing more than feeling sorry for the cost of the past ten years, but what is this?

If it is spread, it is just a man who spoils his wife. It’s no big deal. As long as the account book is hidden, no one dares to really deal with me."

It was midnight when Bai Heran pushed open the door and walked out. She wore a long moon-white dress that looked like a fairy in the dark night.

She never thought that black clothes were the necessary dress for black pedestrians. Whether they could be discovered depends on their ability and had nothing to do with what color of clothes they were wearing. The Tenth Master would not deliberately wear black every time he came to the Duke of Wenguo's mansion. She stretched out her arms and had never walked outside Nianxi courtyard at night. Tonight, she would treat it as a good start! There are too many people in this mansion who want her life. If she doesn't make more trouble for the other party, how can she be worthy of the original owner who died in vain and travel with her for a hard time?

.

Just as I was about to take action, but as soon as I raised my steps, I suddenly heard a little humble movement not far behind me: "Sister, where are you going?"

Bai Heran shivered in fear. When he looked back, he saw Bai Zhenzhen standing by the window in the wing room, looking at her with her chin on both hands.

She touched her forehead, "What are you doing if you don't sleep in the middle of the night?"

Bai Zhenzhen jumped out of the window and said, "I was excited when I thought I could practice kung fu tomorrow morning, and I couldn't sleep. What about you? You didn't feel excited when I thought I could teach me kung fu tomorrow morning, right? I said, where can I go?"

Bai Heran said the truth: "Go and steal things."

"Huh?" Bai Zhenzhen was intrigued and didn't ask what to steal, just said, "Take me one."

She was so scared that she shook her head quickly, "That's not OK, it's a burden."

Bai Zhenzhen quit, "I have to learn from my master. I have to test whether my master has real skills. If you only teach me some fancy moves, then I might as well practice according to the painting book sold on the street!"

She was happy when she heard this, "Test! OK, follow me!" As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly jumped, and she disappeared from the spot like a ghost in the blink of an eye, leaving only a breeze and the dumbfounded Bai Zhenzhen.

"I'll go!" Bai Zhenzhen was stunned, "It's true? So powerful? After three years of practicing like this, how can you practice taking medicine?"

"Miss Four really doesn't need to be tested. Miss Two's martial arts are probably tied together by all the secret guards of the master, not enough for her to play three rounds."

Another voice sounded, Bai Zhenzhen was scared and shivered. When she looked back, she found Moyu stood behind her.

"What did you do when you came out like a ghost in the middle of the night? I was so scared."

Moyu said lightly: "Search your master to protect the house and atone for his sins."

The next day, the Duke Wenguo Mansion finally became lively.

Under the leadership of the butler, the servants began to carry red lanterns and hang them everywhere in the mansion, especially in the past, the courtyard was most grandly decorated, and even a small stage was set up.

Because the owner of the birthday party was Ye, a lot of home furnishings in Fuxiyuan were added, and new tables and chairs were replaced in Ye's house.

Ye began to post wedding posts to the public, and basically all the female family members in the palace of officials above the third rank of the Central Government received wedding posts.

Of course, the post was sent to the legitimate mother and the legitimate daughter. As for the illegitimate children, they did not specially invite them. If any family is willing to bring them, they will bring them by themselves. If the head of the Duke of Wenguo Mansion is called to invite them, the illegitimate children are not qualified.

However, Ye has also learned to be smart this time. Since the newborn child of the Ye family has achieved her second brother's wish, she wrote the favored concubine on the invitation of the Ye family, and also specially invited Madam Wan.

Only one day left before the birthday party, Shuanghuan asked Ye: "Mrs. Before her birthday in previous years, she would go to the palace to pay tribute to the old empress dowager. Do you still have to go this year? If you go, you have to prepare immediately. You will go here later! It will be too late." Ye shook his head, "I won't go this year. There have been so many things in the house, and I have been delayed to pay tribute to my aunt, so I might as well just delay it to the end. Although my aunt is old, I am not confused at all. The habit I have insisted on for so many years has suddenly broken this year. She always

It should also be a summary. Is there something wrong with me? At the moment of the Bai family, I cannot take the risk of taking the initiative to bring reinforcements, but if the reinforcements remember it myself, then they will not blame me anymore."

Shuanghuan nodded, "It's still the lady who is meticulous, but I'm so shallow."

As the two were talking, a servant outside the door shouted: "Report to the second wife, the housekeeper in the front yard, and said that the birthday gift prepared by the Empress Dowager for the wife has been delivered."

Ye was happy, and Shuanghuan said quickly: "It seems that the Empress Dowager is thinking about you, Madam, go out and have a look!"

Ye nodded quickly and called someone to Fenghuayuan to find Bai Jinghong, and he took Shuanghuan to the front yard first. The representative of the old lady later gave a birthday gift was a middle-aged palace maid. She was tall, had a convex figure, bright eyebrows, and very charming. At this moment, the person had been asked to go to the front hall for tea. Ye laughed before he entered the door and took the initiative to say hello: "Quanyan, why are you here in person

Now?"

When people approached, the Double Rings following behind him quickly bowed and saluted: "I have seen Aunt Quan Yan."

When he looked up again, he found that Bai Xingyan, who had been on duty in the morning, had also come in from outside the door. His face looked pretty good. He also asked Ye, "How are the posts delivered?"

Ye knew that Bai Xingyan was for Quan Yan to see. Quan Yan was the palace maid in charge of her aunt's palace. Because her aunt didn't like the old palace maids, she said that she was not angry when she saw the older person, so Quan Yan, who was outstanding in appearance, became a celebrity around the empress dowager.

Bai Xingyan was still showing her face last night, and today he could speak calmly and actively, which shows that he was still concerned about the people in the palace.

Ye thought about it, but did not answer immediately. Instead, he hurriedly stood up with fear, and said voluntarily: "I've given it all, thank you for your care." "Yes?" Ye's words made the palace maid Quan Yan's face instantly gloomy...
