Chapter 4

Xiao lie and ye Xiyue have been engaged since childhood, but he has been out fighting with his father for many years. He has hardly met her. He only saw her from a distance many years ago.

At that time, ye Xiyue, her mother had not died, and the prime minister had not righted her aunt in the house.

She is the daughter of the prime minister who is famous in the capital. She is beautiful and polite. Her marriage to the legitimate son of the general's family is also the envy of all the sect ladies in Beijing.

However, in the years after that, Xiao lie had assumed the name of Zhenguo general, stationed in the border areas, and returned to Beijing only a few times.

The prime minister's wife died early, the prime minister righted her aunt, and ye Xiyue almost stopped going out because of excessive worry. Later, she accidentally fell into the lake and hurt her head in winter.

Since then, it has been said in the whole capital that the eldest lady who came out of the prime minister's house was knocked into a fool. She was as stupid as a few-year-old child all day.

Xiao lie once went back to Beijing to hear about it. He wanted to see her. He went to the prime minister's house to worship her, but he only saw the prime minister.

At that time, the prime minister told him frankly that ye Xiyue was already a fool. I'm afraid it's not suitable to marry him again. For fear of humiliating him, he proposed to change the object of the engagement to the second young lady born to his aunt Fuzheng.

He didn't agree at that time. He should have asked more, but he left Beijing again in a hurry because of the war in the frontier.

From beginning to end, he never did anything for her. Even if he hadn't had an accident this time, he might have married the second lady.

But how could she sell these dowry gold ornaments for him?!

Is it only because he is now her husband's son-in-law that she is willing to do so for him?

With those words, ye Xiyue got up and got out of bed. She didn't know that Xiao lie had thought so much.

She felt a little hungry. There was nothing to eat in the house, not even a piece of cake.

"Tut Tut, do you think you're being bullied by dogs and married by a general? Even if it's Chongxi, you shouldn't be so simple!"

Ye Xiyue saw that the little servant girl didn't come back. She was really hungry again, so she thought about going out to find something to eat.

When Xiao lie heard what she said, a trace of anger crossed his heart.

He naturally knew what was going on, but it was just a trick played by Aunt Zheng while he was unconscious. It is estimated that the medicine was also the hands and feet of her people.

I just don't know where those confidants who followed him back to Beijing have gone. Why didn't they appear.

Ye Xiyue pushed the door and looked out. There were several servants pruning flowers and trees and walking servant girls in the courtyard outside.

She was so conspicuous in her bright red wedding dress that it was difficult to go out without being found.

She frowned a little and retreated in a moment.

She went to the mahogany table in the room and sat down. There was a purple sand teapot on the table. She suddenly picked it up.

I thought I had nothing to eat and drink, but I didn't think the teapot was empty and there was no water at all.

Ye Xiyue stared round her eyes. At the moment, it was like 10000 elephants running wildly at the bottom of her heart. She was speechless to the extreme.

She wondered if she might just go out and go straight to the kitchen.

Whether anyone sees it or not, the original owner is a fool anyway. It's not normal to look for food when you're hungry!

Just about to get up, the door not far away was pushed open with a "squeak", and the little servant girl came in with a face.

"Madam, aunt Zheng asked you to have dinner in the main hall. I'll take you."

When ye Xiyue heard that there was food, she stood up immediately.

It's really the original master's body. I don't know if she was hungry before. She was almost hungry. Therefore, hearing the words of the servant girl was like a conditioned reflex, and she immediately reacted.

The servant girl standing at the door looked at her and whispered to herself.

"It's not stupid to hear that there is food to cheer up!"

Ye Xiyue heard it, but she didn't care about such a little girl at all. She let her lead her out of the door.

After turning a large section of the corridor, I came to the main hall. When I went in, I saw a middle-aged woman dressed in a big red dress sitting on the main seat and squinting at her.

Ye Xiyue guessed that this person should be aunt Zheng in the servant girl's mouth. Wearing such a bright red, she dressed more flirtatious than her bride. Is this deliberately trying to pressure her?

"Oh, why are you still wearing wedding clothes? Lie'er is still ill and there is no banquet at home. Why don't you change your clothes and come out again!"

It's easy to change clothes. There's nothing in Xiao lie's room. What can I change!

Ye Xiyue whispered in her heart, but her face was calm. She ignored her and stared at the dishes on the table.

Aunt Zheng said something deliberately ironic, but it was like hitting on a sponge and didn't stir up any waves.

"Ignore me? Oh, it's a big shelf! If you want to eat, give me tea first!"

She gave a wink to the left and right. Two mammies on the side immediately stepped forward, holding tea in one hand and pulling Ye Xiyue when the other went up. She was going to force her to kneel down and offer tea.
