Noble Lady Jing Zhao

Chapter 21 The Sisters-in-law
Ye Jingyun stepped forward, bowed, smiled, and embraced grandma's arm.

She said coquettishly, "Grandma, granddaughter misses you, do you miss granddaughter?"

The eldest lady let go of the old lady's arm and took a step back.

The old lady smiled lovingly and tapped her third granddaughter's forehead twice, "You are missing your grandma. You want to see what gifts your grandma has brought you."

"grandmother……"

"You girl!"

The old lady was disturbed by her third granddaughter, and her thoughts were diverted from the fact that Jiang didn't come to greet her.

"Is this the fourth girl? She looks very similar to you."

The old lady came to Xie's side and stopped suddenly.

Mrs. Xie saluted and replied, "Mrs. Hui, this is that girl Zhaozhao."

Ye Jingzhao stood behind his mother and saluted.

"Grandma, let's go back to the house first."

Ye Jingyun shook his grandmother's arm lightly twice.

"Okay, you girl!"

The old lady had kind eyebrows and kind eyes, with a doting look on her face.

The grandfather and grandson entered the uncle's house first.

Madam Liang followed behind, saw Mrs. Xie and said, "Three brothers and sisters, we haven't seen each other in these years. Is everything okay?"

If Cheng Enbo's mansion said to treat Mrs. Xie well, it would only be the eldest sister-in-law.

The Liang family came from Liang Wangfu, the youngest daughter of Liang Wang and Liang Wangfei.

"Everything is fine, let my sister-in-law worry."

Mrs. Liang took Mrs. Xie's arm and entered the uncle's residence together.

Ye Jingzhao did not follow up.

The fourth uncle and the fourth aunt, the fifth uncle and the fifth aunt followed the elder sister-in-law Liang.

She saluted one by one.

"Fourth sister?"

In front of the uncle's house, a young man came on horseback.

When he got to the gate of the uncle's mansion, the young man grabbed the reins, got off his horse, and threw the rope to the servant behind him.

He was a little unsure of the identity of the girl in front of him.

With doubt.

"Brother, it's me."

Ye Jingzhao smiled slightly in greeting.

This young man was none other than Ye Chong, the eldest brother of his eldest aunt.

Ye Zhong raised his hand to rub his sister's bun, but suddenly remembered that his sister was now older.

It can no longer be the same as when I was a child.

The hand stopped in mid-air for a moment, then slowly lowered it.

"You've grown up so much that the elder brother almost doesn't recognize you. You were still such a small group back then..."

Ye Zhong's tone was full of emotion.

The mother is in the mansion, and the only sister-in-law she likes is the third aunt.

Therefore, when they were young, the fourth younger sister often came to the big room to play with their brothers and sisters.

The small group of people always stood aside obediently.

Even if no one plays with her, she won't cry.

My mother liked this niece very much.

The two brothers and sisters are often told to be kind to the fourth sister.

"Brother is becoming more and more handsome now."

"When did you come back? Why haven't you heard of it?"

Ye Zhong was a little embarrassed by the praise, scratched his head, and entered the uncle's residence with his fourth younger sister.

"We don't have much time to come back. Brother, when are you going to see eldest sister? I want to go with you..."

Seeing that her eldest brother didn't know why Sanfang came back, she didn't want to say more.

The second aunt arranged the marriage for her without telling the big house.

No one in Kyoto knew about this matter.

Now that he has returned to the mansion, Dafang will know about it sooner or later.

But the matter has become a foregone conclusion.

"My mother plans to visit my sister tomorrow. Will you go?"

"Of course I want to go."

"Since you have been back for a while, my sister should know, why didn't someone come to pick you up?"

Ye Chong was a little confused.

The reason for this, elder brother doesn't know, but Ye Jingzhao knows it well.

In her previous life, she only learned about it from her elder sister later.

When Sanfang returned to Kyoto, the eldest sister had a dispute over the matter of bringing Liangdi to the crown prince.

The husband and wife were at a stalemate, and the queen knew about it.

They sent someone to bring the eldest sister into the palace, and only after hearing that Mrs. Liang had returned, did they send the concubine back to the Prince's Mansion.

"Eldest sister will definitely be unable to get away. The huge Prince's Mansion needs her to worry about every day."

"Too."

When Ye Zhong thought of his sister, he couldn't help feeling a little sad.

For dinner, Jiang ordered someone to prepare a few tables early.

Today, when the old lady brought everyone back, she naturally wanted to have dinner together.

Mrs. Jiang was supported by Nanny Cui to serve the old lady for dinner.

The old lady saw that Jiang's face was pale, and she looked sickly.

Seeing Jiang like this doesn't seem like he's pretending to be sick.

Today's annoyance slowly subsided.

"Since you are sick, why bother coming out to serve me, an old woman, with dinner? If you are tired, you will shorten my life as an old woman."

Although the old lady spoke a bit harshly, she stretched out her hand to hold Jiang's hand, and told her, "Go back quickly and rest, I'll go see you tomorrow."

Jiang's heart was moved, "It's the daughter-in-law who is unfilial, which made the old lady worry."

The old lady waved her hand and urged Jiang to go back and rest earlier.

Aunt Cui supported Jiang and bowed before saying goodbye to everyone.

The female family members were dining with the old lady inside, while several gentlemen and eldest sons were accompanying her outside through a screen.

After dinner, several masters withdrew one by one.

The maids brought new tea.

Only then did Mrs. Liang speak out, "Mother, my daughter-in-law heard that the second sibling has arranged a marriage for the fourth girl."

"Well, she has already told me about this."

The old lady pressed the corner of her lips with her handkerchief and said, "The second daughter-in-law is a kind and generous person. She has a family background like Su Muhou's house. She is also determined. The fourth girl can be regarded as high up in the Hou's house."

The old lady's words were her tacit approval of this matter.

Mrs. Liang's expression paused slightly, the events in the Su Muhou Mansion had long been spread in Kyoto.

"Okay, I'm tired too, you all go away."

The old lady raised her hand, and grandma stepped forward to help the old lady up and go to wash up.

A whole house of children stood up and saluted, and exited the old lady's yard one by one.

Mrs. Liang dragged Mrs. Xie to walk together.

"The relationship between the eldest sister-in-law and the third sister-in-law is really good. It's so enviable to see. Some people might even think they are biological sisters."

Fourth Madam Xue's voice was sharp.

Mrs. Liang stopped in her tracks, and glanced back at Mrs. Xue.

Xue's face was embarrassing, as if those words just now were not with the sister-in-law.

She turned her head and said to the fifth sibling, "Fifth sibling, do you think so?"

The mistress of the fifth house, Ding, was born as a ninth-grade official.

The eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law are from high-ranking families, and Ding knows that she can't get along.

Simply make friends with the fourth sister-in-law.

Xue was born as a merchant and had a sharp and fierce temper.

But also an idiot.

A few kind words from Mrs. Ding can turn around Mrs. Xue's deception.

Besides, Mrs. Xue is also considered generous. Over the years, she has given Mrs. Ding a lot of good things.

She didn't want to offend her elder sister-in-law, and she didn't want to make her fourth sister-in-law unable to get off the stage.

With a tactful smile, she changed the subject and looked at the third sister-in-law Xie, "The third sister-in-law is really enviable."

Xie was mentioned so suddenly, which was a bit unnatural.

He also knew that Ding was pushing himself out.

Fortunately, Mrs. Liang didn't want to dwell on this topic, so she took Ms. Xie to the main room.

Ye Jingzhao returned to Zhiting Garden first.

"Third brother and sister, why didn't you send someone to Anzhou to deliver a message about this wedding? I can help you a lot..."

Mrs. Liang pulled Mrs. Xie and mentioned this niece, feeling very distressed.

Mrs. Xie had her own grievances, but she didn't want to make Mrs. Liang worry about it.

He just said, "Sister-in-law, this matter is over, don't mention it."
