"Why are you staring at me?" Ye Jiayao stared back.

"What did you say in Zichen Palace before? Do you really want to let me out?" Xia Chunyu's eyes were dark, and his tone was low and cold.

It turned out that it was because of this, Ye Jiayao curled her lips disapprovingly: "You are not mine in the first place, what if the contract is voided, and I deserve to pay my life for you?"

You idiot, can't I hear what I'm saying?

Xia Chunyu's breath was not smooth and he felt that his mouth was completely blocked.

Before he could question, Ye Jiayao poked him: "Hey, your performance in front of the emperor was so amazing that even I almost believed it. Chunyu, is this a necessary skill for working with the emperor?"

Xia Chunyu almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

Was he acting? He really put his head on the waistband of his trousers. If he put his heart out, how could it be acting in her ears?

"Ye Jinxuan, I count you as cruel." Xia cChun said viciously.

"Why am I ruthless? If I were ruthless, could you bully me? Back then, in Heifenggang, I was so anxious to find you, but what did you say? I fell into Yanxia Lake, the lake water was so cold, my legs cramped, and I almost drowned in the lake." Ye Jiayao pursed her mouth aggrieved.

As soon as she mentioned this, Xia Chunyu felt like a discouraged ball, unable to get angry, and had to comfort her instead: "I said it was a misunderstanding, don't think about it anymore."

"Can you not think about it? I feel uncomfortable when I think about it. Xia cChunyu, let me tell you, if you dare to bully me again in the past two years and eight months, I will settle the old and new debts together." Ye Jiayao warned him ferociously.

Xia Chunyu was speechless, he hadn't entered the house yet, so he was going to make rules for him, it was really a big turn of events.

"Am I that kind of person? Seriously, my father has a good impression of you. My mother is good in everything else, but her family status is important. If she says something unpleasant, please bear with her and don't bother with her." Xia cChun first vented her anger, lest she seem to hurt the emperor again, mother is not so good-tempered.

Ye Jiayao said: "It's not that I haven't seen your mother, it's okay, I know."

Not long after, the carriage arrived at Hou's mansion, and Xia Chunyu helped her get off the carriage.

"Go to my room and change your clothes!"

"To your house?"

"Then where else do you want to go?" Xia cChun raised his eyebrows and looked at her.

"Okay! Your house is my house, at least these years." Ye Jiayao rolled her eyes indifferently.

The last time Ye Jiayao came to the Hou's mansion, she only went to the study outside, but today she has gone deeper. Looking left and right, the style of this Hou's mansion is no worse than that of Prince Helian's mansion.

"The third entrance in the east is the elder brother's yard, the back is Chunfeng's, and the back is my fourth brother's. There are two aunts living in the west. Chunfeng and I are from the same mother. The eldest brother was born to Aunt Wei. The fourth brother is eleven years old and born to Aunt Gui..." Xia cChun introduced as he walked.

"Your family is all sons, don't you have a daughter?" Ye Jiayao asked.

Xia Chunyu smiled and said: "There is one girl, my eldest brother's first child, who is only two years old, nicknamed Dani, and girl named Xia Ziyuan."

I'm still Xia Ziwei! Well, it should be a good thing not to have a sister-in-law. A sister-in-law is usually more difficult to take care of. Moreover, there is only one sister-in-law in the family. Chunfeng is still young, and she is the same age as her, so she should not get married so soon. As for the aunt, don't be afraid.

Ye Jiayao analyzed in her heart, there are not many women, the key is to get Xia Youshi and sister-in-law. The specific situation is subject to further evaluation.

Xia Chunyu's yard is the last one in the center, next to the garden, with an elegant environment. Old Hou Ye lived in front of him.

"Qiao Xi, take the Second Young Mistress to change clothes." Xia cChunyu instructed a girl of medium height with an oval face and fair skin.

The girl smiled and bowed her knees: "Second Young Mistress, please come with your servants."

Xia Chunyu nodded to Ye Jiayao: "Hurry up, don't make parents wait for a long time."

Khan, it's so strange, this is going to call a pair of strangers parents. Ye Jiayao followed Qiao Xi into the house. Xia Chunyu also went to change his clothes. The sweaty body was all scared out of him!

Qiao Xi and the two little girls served Ye Jiayao together.

The little girl opened the closet, and saw that it was full of clothes, all of which were brand new in elegant colors.

"Second young lady, which outfit do you like to wear?" the little girl asked.

Ye Jiayao pointed to the lotus-colored suit and said, "Just this one!"

Bring over the little girl's lotus-colored dress.

Ye Jiayao asked her: "What's your name?"

"Slave Cherry."

"Cherries? Eat cherries?"

"Yes, the maidservant was originally called Cuihua, but the Shizi changed it because he thought it was ugly. He said that the second young lady would definitely like this name." Cherry looked at the second young lady eagerly.

Ye Jiayao saw that her little face was watery, white and tender, with a rosy pink, it really looked like a tempting cherry. She smiled and said, "Well, I like this name." Otherwise, if you call Cuihua every day, she will think of sauerkraut, which is too unreasonable.

Cherry smiled happily when Second Young Mistress said she liked it.

"What about you? What's your name?" Ye Jiayao asked again who was helping her choose jewelry.

"Back to the Second Young Mistress, the maidservant's name is Pomegranate."

Pfft... Ye Jiayao couldn't help laughing out loud, the real version of Sister Pomegranate!

"Does Second Young Mistress think that the maid's name is unpleasant?" Shi Liu asked a little depressed.

"No, no, it sounds very good, pomegranate, yes, it reminds me of an old friend." Ye Jiayao smiled.

"Second Young Mistress, Cherry and Pomegranate are the newly bought maids of the Shizi. They will serve you exclusively in the future, and this servant will teach them well." Qiao Xi helped Ye Jiayao fasten the buckle.

"Didn't you serve me?" Ye Jiayao asked.

Qiao Xi smiled and said: "My servant obeys the orders of the son and the second young mistress. If I can serve the second young mistress, this slave will be very happy."

Well, he is a sweet talker who knows how to judge the situation.

"I've just arrived, and I'm not familiar with the personnel affairs in the mansion. Let's make a decision after a while!" Ye Jiayao said, but she should be careful with these veteran girls, she won't nod easily without getting to know the details.

"There are not many maids in the courtyard. The servants and Xiangtao serve in the room. There are four outside, Caiwei, Cailan, Qingwen and Yexue. They have all served in the Hou's residence for many years. Only Cherry and Pomegranate are newcomers..." Qiao Xi introduced, arranged her clothes, and combed Ye Jiayao's hair.

I have to say that Qiao Xi's hands are very dexterous, and her hair becomes very obedient in her hands, and she can arrange it however she wants, unlike Ye Jiayao, who can't even comb it smoothly even if she combs it in a high bun.

Looking at herself in the Linghua mirror, Ye Jiayao didn't dare to recognize her. Is this... still her? The bun is exposed, and a jade phoenix hairpin is inserted obliquely. The pearl tassels are swaying, and the pearly light flows, lining the skin as white as snow. There are also a pair of pearl earrings on the ears. It is said that pearls are a woman's best companion, as expected, no wonder so many well-known women and ladies in the world like to wear pearls, which is extravagant and elegant.

"Are you ready?" Xia cChun came in.

"It's almost there." Ye Jiayao got up and turned around, smiling brightly: "What do you think?"

A flash of amazement flashed in Xia Chunyu's eyes, this was the first time he had seen her carefully dressed, her eyes contained spring water and clear waves, her tender and beautiful face was more delicate than flowers.

Xia Chunyu looked around, walked to the window, and picked off a pink camellia.

"come over."

"Why? You don't want to put flowers on my head, do you?" Ye Jiayao thought it was too exaggerated, but she still walked over.

Xia Chunyu just wanted to put flowers for her, she was already very beautiful, but she was a little too plain.

The more Xia Chunyu looked at it, the more satisfied he was, he held her hand and said, "You can go now."

Ye Jiayao felt uncomfortable with a big flower on her head: "Can you take the flower down?"

"No."

"Why not, this is my head."

"Your head is for me to see, do women who want to please themselves know?"

"Are you a self-pleaser?"

"Isn't it? Don't wear men's clothes in the future, I like to see you like this."

Ye Jiayao just wanted to roll her eyes.

He said, "Don't roll your eyes."

Ye Jiayao wanted to stare at him.

"Don't stare."

Ye Jiayao smiled with crooked eyes.

"By the way, that's it, that's how you look like a gentle woman." Xia Chunyu said

Cut, Ye Jiayao rolled her eyes.

Xia Youshi was a little impatient with the wait: "Didn't you say that you have already come? Where did you dawdle? We have to wait for them, it's outrageous."

The old master Xia Zhuofeng was drinking tea leisurely, and said unhurriedly, "Why are you in a hurry? If you don't rush out, she has to tidy up before she can come to see your future mother-in-law. If she comes here in a sloppy manner, you won't be disgusted by her."

"You know how to speak for her, and you haven't entered the door yet! I have no status?"

The old Hou Ye's eyes were wide open: "How is it possible? You are the mistress of this Hou's mansion, and your status is detached. Who can beat you?"

Xia Youshi spat at him: "I haven't seen you for a few years, your hair has turned gray a lot, and your mouth has become more and more serious."

"I'm telling the truth, from the bottom of my heart." Old Hou Ye laughed.

"Master, madam, the son is here." The servant girl came in to report.

Xia Youshi quickly brushed her temple hair, straightened her clothes, sat upright, and assumed the posture of a mother-in-law.

Although she already had a daughter-in-law, that son was not her own, so she felt different, always separated by a layer, and couldn't get it to her heart. Now it was her own son who wanted to marry a wife, so she had to treat it seriously.

Ye Jiayao followed Xia cChun into the main hall.

"My son greets his father and mother."

The word daughter-in-law stuck in Ye Jiayao's throat for a while, but the words came out: "Jinxuan pays respects to uncle and aunt."

Xia Youshi was a little surprised. She had planned to give Ye Jiayao an insult. If she called herself daughter-in-law, she would say... You haven't formally entered the family, this is not an appropriate name. As a result, they didn't fall for this trick.

"There's no need to be too polite, get up quickly." Seeing Ye Jiayao's outfit, Xia Zhuofeng thought to himself, "Hey, how come you are so prettier all of a sudden? It really is that people depend on clothes, and Buddha depends on gold clothes." Chunyu is so lucky.
