Eat the whole family? I emptied the storehouse of the Marquis' Mansion and married the crippled
Chapter 65: On the way to greet
There were some furniture in the ear room that was who knows how many years old, so it wasn't difficult to tidy it up.
Zhou Cong didn't look for other wood. He just chopped all the broken furniture into small pieces and threw them into the fire.
The flames grew stronger and stronger. Nanny Zhang and Nanny Liu took people to check if there was any smoke in the house.
"Thank God, the ground dragons are all good. Now the girl can sleep well at night."
Nanny Liu ran over happily to report to Ye Jintang.
The floor heating started burning and the room gradually became warmer. Aunt Liu brought Ye Jintang a cup of red date ginger tea and asked her to drink it to warm her body.
"The old lady treated you like this as soon as you entered the mansion. You should think more about yourself in the future."
“Well, since the old lady doesn’t give me face, then there is no need for me to give her face.”
Ye Jintang immediately had an idea in his mind.
"There is one more thing. The old lady didn't even assign a maid to the young lady. This is really inappropriate."
"Besides, it's already this hour, and the housekeeper hasn't come to remind the young lady to pay her respects to the old lady tomorrow morning."
"Young lady, you didn't pay your respects to the old lady right after returning to the Marquis of Danyang's mansion. This is extremely disrespectful and unfilial. If this gets out, it will damage your reputation."
"It seems that the old lady deliberately did not mention this matter."
Ye Jintang picked up the red date ginger tea and took a sip. She was very disdainful of what Old Madam Ye had done. In her eyes, these little tricks were nothing.
She is not a naive girl, and she will not be frightened by a little thing.
"Madam Liu, please help me pack my white clothes. Call me tomorrow morning. I want to go and pay my respects to the old lady."
"Yes, I will prepare the clothes right away."
Ye Jintang curled the corners of his lips and tried to play tricks on her, hoping that the old lady would be in better health and not be pissed off to death by her.
After a tiring day, Ye Jintang fell asleep almost as soon as she touched the pillow. In a half-asleep state, she vaguely felt a furry figure crawling into the quilt and curled up at her feet. She knew without thinking that it was the naughty little Xuetuan.
At dawn the next day, Nanny Liu and Nanny Zhang came to wake Ye Jintang up.
"Why so early?"
Ye Jintang was sleeping soundly and didn't want to leave her warm bed at all.
"To pay respects to the old lady, you should go early. If you go too late, it will be easy for people to catch you and make irresponsible remarks."
Nanny Zhang brought the clothes that had been prepared long ago and helped Ye Jintang to dress and wash.
"Madam Zhang is kindhearted. You should have given me that pure white dress. The jade color just looks more refreshing."
"Wearing a jade-colored long skirt in the middle of winter makes you look so cold. Miss, please be kind and don't let the old lady faint from anger on the first day."
All the maids and old women in the room laughed softly.
The older the lady is, the more she likes lively colors.
In the eyes of Old Madam Ye, Ye Jintang's appearance was extremely unlucky.
She was dressed in white, with a pearl flower on her hair, and no makeup on her face. Coupled with Ye Jintang's thin body, she looked lifeless.
"Yes, let's go and pay our respects to the old lady."
Ye Jintang, along with Luzhu, Lianqiao, Nanny Liu and Nanny Zhang, headed to Fushouyuan in a grand procession.
As soon as she entered the gate of Fu Shou Yuan, she saw several girls of her age standing on the porch of the main house.
The clothes worn by each girl were of very lively colors. There was even a younger girl who was wearing a bright red long skirt with white fur, which looked very gorgeous.
Ye Jintang's appearance made them all turn their heads to look at the door, and almost everyone had a look of surprise on their face.
Ye Jintang is more handsome and more fragile than the rumors say.
Nanny Sun, who had been waiting at the door, did not expect Ye Jintang to come, so she hurried forward to greet him.
"The Sixth Miss is here. The ladies are in the room talking to the old lady. It will probably take a while for them to come out. The Sixth Miss is weak, so why don't you go to the west room and sit for a while. When the ladies come out, I will come to invite the Miss."
"These cousins haven't gone to the west room to rest, so it's not convenient for me to go over there. I'll just wait with my sisters."
Nanny Sun didn't dare to agree casually. She said a few polite words and went into the inner room to report to the old lady.
Nanny Sun entered the room, and Ye Jintang took a few steps forward and stood with the other girls.
It wasn’t that Ye Jintang wanted to get close to them, but there were several charcoal stoves next to them, and standing there would warm you up a little.
"Are you Jintang's sister?"
A girl in pink clothes took the initiative to greet Ye Jintang.
"Yes, I don't know what to call my sister."
"My name is Yanran."
When Ye Jintang heard the name, he was surprised.
This is Ye Yanran, the koi heroine in the original novel. Just looking at her face, she seems very gentle and not cruel.
You really can't judge a person by his appearance.
"Meet Sister Yanran."
"This is your fifth sister Ye Lan, this is your seventh sister Ye Zhu, your eighth sister Ye Qing, your ninth sister Ye Tao, and your tenth sister Ye Yin."
Although they are called younger sisters, they are actually about the same age as Ye Jintang, except that Ye Yin is younger, being only 11 years old now.
Ye Yanran was an enthusiastic person and introduced several girls to Ye Jintang.
Everyone was of similar age, so naturally they had something to talk about, and a few girls gathered together and chatted.
The old lady was having breakfast in the room. When she heard that Ye Jintang was coming, she couldn't help but frown.
"She is a polite person. I thought she would be so scared that she would hide in the Jade Garden and dare not come out."
"Since she wants to come and pay her respects to me, then she'll just have to wait."
"Madam, it's not appropriate to keep the Sixth Young Lady waiting."
Nanny Sun quickly described Ye Jintang's condition, "I see that Sixth Miss doesn't look very well. If she stands outside for a long time and suddenly faints, we won't be able to explain this matter."
"Besides, she has been standing and talking with the other girls. It would be inappropriate to let her wait alone."
"What a troublemaker! He makes me feel upset as soon as he comes here."
Old Madam Ye slammed the chopsticks in her hand on the table and asked the maid serving in the room to take away the breakfast.
"Mother, please don't hurt yourself because of a little girl. If mother doesn't want to see her, she can skip the greetings in the future."
The eldest daughter-in-law, Mrs. Gan, personally handed the old lady a hot handkerchief to wipe her hands.
"Well, nothing much, you all can go away and let the girls in."
Several ladies went out, and the girls standing at the door bowed their heads and saluted. Madam Gan, who was in the lead, looked at Ye Jintang meaningfully and left without saying a word.
The other ladies had similar attitudes, and some didn't even look at her.
It's as if she doesn't exist.
Ye Jintang was a little confused. Even if she was an orphan, it was impossible for everyone in the Marquis' Mansion to treat her as a transparent person. This was too strange.
There must be something wrong when things are out of the ordinary. Ye Jintang is determined to get to the bottom of this matter and find out how his family had offended Old Madam Ye.
