The New Year is approaching, and the entire capital is immersed in joy.
Since they have no foundation or connections in Beijing, compared to other families who constantly visit relatives and friends, the Wang family is a bit deserted. No one invites them to be guests or visits them at home.
Mr. Wang and his two sons are fine. They can go out every day and are not bored. However, the women at home are a little bored.
Especially the mother and daughter of the Wang family are still dreaming of climbing high branches. How can they make friends with high-ranking women and show their excellence if they don¡¯t go out to socialize?
In the past two days, the second girl Wang's face has been smelly. When she looked at the first girl Wang, there were some noses and eyes that were not noses or eyes.
Miss Wang was very angry at her younger sister's attitude. When Miss Wang looked at her sideways again, she asked with a serious face: "Second sister, how did I offend you?"
Miss Wang had been holding it in for two days, and she couldn't hold it in anymore. When Miss Wang asked, she immediately expressed her dissatisfaction: "Last time we went to Yan's house, if the eldest sister hadn't stopped Ye Yueying, If we go, the Yan family won¡¯t annoy us.¡±
¡°With the introduction from the Yan family, maybe we would have gotten to know the women of other families long ago, and there would be no need to stay at home and worry like we are now.¡±
"I heard what my eldest brother said, because Princess Weiyuan returned to Beijing, the Yan family held several banquets, and many of the noble princesses and the female family members of high-ranking officials attended."
Ms. Wang¡¯s face was extremely ugly, and she sneered: ¡°Second sister, your ability to shirk responsibilities is really great. Was it my idea to not let Ye Yueying go?¡±
Second girl Wang retorted: "Originally, my mother and I didn't mean that. If you hadn't mentioned it, eldest sister, how would we have thought of not letting Ye Yueying go?"
Miss Wang was so angry that when she saw that Mrs. Wang didn't stop her sister, it was obvious that she thought so too, and she was so aggrieved that even her eyes turned red.
¡°If her mother and sister hadn¡¯t agreed, she alone would have been unable to stop Ye Yueying. Now it¡¯s better, and all the mistakes are blamed on her.
"Second Miss Wang couldn't stand the way Miss Wang always cried: "Sister, you are crying more and more now. I just said a few words casually, are you like this? It's like I bullied you."
Hearing this, Miss Wang became even more angry: "You"
Seeing that her two daughters were arguing so much, Mrs. Wang had to stop her: "Okay, you all should calm down for a while. I'm not bothered enough, right?"
In Youzhou, the Wang family has never been so deserted during the Chinese New Year.
Every day at the end of the year, officials¡¯ wives and local squires came to visit her every day with New Year gifts. She was tired, but she was also really happy. She enjoyed the flattery of others.
"But when she came to the capital, let alone fawning over her, she was a noble wife, but she was reduced to staying at home doing nothing.
The gap between this and the past has already made her feel very uncomfortable. A few days ago, she was even more annoyed when she was scolded by the master in front of her children because of Ye Yueying's incident.
Now the two daughters are still arguing, and they are really not considerate or considerate 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 circle of female relatives in the capital, not only will our father not have to worry, but even our eldest sister will have a good future. "
Miss Wang laughed out loud: "Second sister is getting better and better at talking. Are you doing it for others? I think you are worried about your own marriage, right?"
Second Miss Wang did not deny it and said confidently: "Yes, I am anxious about my marriage, but this does not prevent me from being anxious about my family and you, my eldest sister."
Without waiting for Miss Wang to speak, she continued: "Sister, a few months after the Chinese New Year is the wedding date for you and Mr. Qi. If you don't hurry up, I'm afraid you will really marry back to Youzhou. ."
These words made Miss Wang speechless.
When Miss Wang saw it, she raised her eyebrows proudly.
Mrs. Wang glared at her youngest daughter and signaled her to calm down. After a moment of silence, she said to herself: "It seems that the Ye family has no face with the Yan family. If the Yan family really has an old relationship with the Ye family, last time Ye Yueying didn¡¯t go, so we should send out invitations for the next few banquets.¡±
Second Miss Wang nodded in agreement: "Isn't it true? We have been looking forward to it in vain. Mother, you also gave many good things to Ye Yueying."
He said with a sarcastic look on his face.
"And that little prince Xiao, I thought Ye Yueying was so capable and could really hook up with the prince, but look at these days, has the noble little prince ever talked to her again?"
"Let me see, the young prince's love for Ye YueyingYou can be enthusiastic when treating guests, but you can't be too conceited, otherwise you will definitely be looked down upon.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Wang asked the nanny beside her to go with the steward to greet the people.
By the time the steward led the servants of the Yan family over, Mrs. Wang was already sitting upright in the living room, while Ye Yueying was standing beside her in a dignified manner.
Walking at the front was Zhou Jingwan¡¯s housekeeper, Yan Liushi, followed by Gu Yu beside Daohua.
"My maid, Mrs. Yan Liu, would like to give my regards to the old lady and my regards to Miss Ye."
Guyu followed the other maids in saluting without introducing herself.
She came here mainly to take a look at Miss Ye for the princess.
Mrs. Wang quickly asked people to get up, and then she took Ye Yueying and introduced her: "This is my niece. The whole family went to Qian's house today to listen to a play, but she insisted on staying at home to take care of me."
Mrs. Yan Liu immediately praised: "Miss Ye is really filial, the old lady is blessed."
While Mrs. Yan Liu and Mrs. Wang were greeting each other, Gu Yu was looking at Ye Yueying calmly.
Although the prince and princess have long said that the marriage of the three young princes, brother and sister is mainly based on their liking, this does not mean that the prince and princess do not care.
After learning that the young prince was interested in Miss Ye, the prince immediately sent people to inquire about everything about the Wang family and the Ye family.
This visit to Wang¡¯s house was nominally in the name of Mr. Yan taking care of his old friend¡¯s orphan, but it was actually the intention of the princess, and the purpose was to take a look at Miss Ye.
Guyu silently observed Ye Yueying beside Mrs. Wang. Well she was elegant, clear, and graceful. Her whole body exuded a touch of coldness, which made her look even more cold and arrogant. At first glance, she looked as big as any ordinary lady. for different.
No wonder the young prince is attracted to her. The most eye-catching thing about Miss Ye is not her appearance, but her cold and arrogant temperament, which is like a snow lotus on Tianshan Mountain.
Ye Yueying noticed Gu Yu's sizing up and glanced at her silently. She could tell at a glance that her demeanor was different from that of ordinary servants.
This is not an ordinary grandma, and the aura of an ordinary grandma would not be so strong!
??Although the servants who came this time were headed by Nanny Liu who was talking to her grandmother, in fact, Nanny Liu looked at this Nanny 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.
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out of the Ye family and the female family members are the highest officials in Liaodong family members, she was still in her infancy, her mother held all kinds of female family members.
And because her father only has one child, she has been raised as a boy since she was a child. Not only has she learned to read and understand things like a boy, she has also been shunned by her family when it comes to all kinds of people and worldly things outside.
Even though the other party was a servant of the palace, she didn't feel much ups and downs in her heart.
Just thinking about King Weiyuan and Princess Weiyuan returning to Beijing not long ago, the look on Ye Yueying's face became a little erratic. She pulled the jade pendant around her waist and thought about Xiao Moxi.
Did he tell the prince and princess something that made them return to Beijing?
Mrs. Yan Liu and Mrs. Wang chatted for two cups of tea, and after sending out the New Year gifts, they stood up and prepared to leave.
Before leaving, Guyu spoke and looked at Ye Yueying with a smile: "Miss Ye has just arrived in Beijing, so she should attend more gatherings of ladies. My little master is going to hold a lantern party in the mansion on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. Miss Ye can write a post then. You must come."
Mrs. Yan Liu took the words with a smile and looked at Mrs. Wang: "That's right, at your age, it's time for you to go out for a walk. My wife and Mrs. Ye were both very sorry for not being able to see Miss Ye last time. Woolen cloth."
Mrs. Wang smiled and quickly agreed: "I will definitely urge her to go."
Ye Yueying sent the two of them 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 through the New Year's gifts sent by the Yan family: "As expected, we are from a wealthy family, and these New Year's gifts are more expensive than those from other families." After saying that, she paused and looked at Ye Yueying.
"The Yan family has sent a New Year's gift, and we should return the gift. Yingying, please quickly draw up a list and take the money from me. We also have to return the gift. We can't make people think that our family is rude."
Ye Yueying shook her head: "Grandma, how can I take your money? I have money, so don't worry about this, I will take care of it."
The apparent assets of the Ye family were taken over by the Wang family, but all the portable banknotes were 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.
Mrs. Wang kept the hard-to-preserve food as a New Year's gift from the Yan family, and Xuehua sent all the rest to Ye Yueying's room.
"Your aunt is short-sighted and can't see good things. Since you are the one returning the gifts, you should keep these things."
