Adorable Food Goddess

In the first month, there are all kinds of New Year greetings. Starting from the second day of the lunar month, Ye Jiayao followed Chunyu or Youshi in and out of various high-end mansions.

Of the three daughters-in-law, Mrs. You only brought Ye Jiayao out. Ms. Qiao didn't have any objections. After all, Ye Jiayao was the future mistress of the Hou Mansion, but Liuli was a little angry. In terms of status, she was more noble than the one named Ye, and she treated others well. She also studied things and social interactions seriously. Why didn't her mother-in-law take her with her, and only took someone with the surname Ye? Coupled with Mrs. Zhou's instigation, Liuli felt more and more heartbroken.

Xiaoya advised her: "Princess, you don't have to mind. You are a princess and your status is extraordinary. If you go around to pay New Year greetings, aren't you lowering your status? People are not allowed to kowtow when they see you? That's not good."

Liuli thought about it and it made sense.

"Anyway, the second young lady will leave on the sixth day of the lunar month. She will be gone for seven or eight days at least. Then it will be time for you, princess, to show off."

Liuli snorted and smiled: "I heard that Ye Binghuai was impeached. I really want to see how the Ye family will react after the Ye family is finished."

"Princess, it's not fun for the Ye family to end so soon. We have to live half-dead and add trouble to the Second Young Mistress from time to time. That's the fun!" Xiaoya said.

Liuli narrowed her eyes and smiled with unclear meaning: "Xiaoya, you have been with me for several years, and I realized that you are so sinister!"

Xiaoya knelt down in fear: "Princess, I am extremely loyal to the princess. I just want to help the princess achieve her wish. As long as the princess is happy, I am willing to do anything."

Liuli smiled and said in a manly voice: "Why are you so nervous? Get up!"

Ye Jiayao got up early on the morning of the sixth day of the lunar month. She felt extremely happy thinking that she would soon see her grandfather, grandmother, aunt and others. The only drawback was that she had to go to Ye's house first.

Xia Chunyu got up earlier and urged the servants to pretend to salute before coming back to call her.

The two of them went to say goodbye to the Marquis and Youshi. Youshi told them to be careful on the road, and to convey greetings to their grandparents when they see them.

Xia Chunyu had prepared all the salutes, and Ye Jiayao didn't interfere. When he got on the boat, he saw that there were so many of them.

"Are you moving?" Ye Jiayao asked in surprise.

Xia Chunyu said with a smile: "It's my first time to go to your grandfather's house. Naturally, it can't be too shabby. A gift for each person is necessary. And your house, I can't go empty-handed. My mother prepared another gift and returned it." There are things we use every day, and that’s all in total.”

"Anyway, we're taking a boat. When we get to Yangzhou, we just need to transport the things for your family ashore. It's no trouble."

Ye Jiayao felt warmed when she thought of Youshi's thoughtfulness. At first, she was afraid that this snobbish mother-in-law would be difficult to get along with, but she didn't expect that Youshi was such a sensible person.

The ship sailed for a day and a night, and arrived at the shore at dawn. Ye Zhongyuan had been waiting at the dock for a long time, looking forward to it in the howling cold wind, and his nose was red from the cold.

Ye Jiayao had not yet woken up from her sleep, listlessly, she got on the carriage and continued to sleep in Chunyu's arms.

"I went to bed very early yesterday, and I didn't bother you. I think I made you sleepy." Xia Chunyu couldn't help but laugh when he saw her acting like a sleeping cat.

Ye Jiayao said lazily: "I'm a little seasick."

Well……

"Then let's take the land route when we come back?"

"No need to go to such trouble, I can just sleep." She didn't like taking the land route even more, as it was even more bumpy.

Moreover, at least you can lie down and sleep on the boat. How can you lie down in the carriage?

Not long after, I heard Zhong Yuan say from outside: "Sister, brother-in-law, will be home soon."

Xia Chunyu opened the curtain, and a cold wind came in, which made his face hurt. He saw Ye Binghuai and his servants personally greeting him in front of the house.

Xia Chunyu pushed Ye Jiayao and called in a low voice: "Yaoyao, wake up, we're here."

"Haha, Chunyu, Xuan'er, you're finally here. Is the journey going well?" Ye Binghuai came up to us with a smile on his face.

Xia Chunyu cupped his hands and smiled calmly: "It went smoothly, but Yaoyao is a little seasick."

Yaoyao? Ye Binghuai was stunned for a moment, looking at his daughter who looked a little pale, and then realized that Chunyu was talking about Jinxuan. When did Jinxuan get this title? No matter what, maybe this is a nickname between them as a young couple.

Ye Binghuai immediately showed a concerned look: "Then go in and rest, the room is ready."

After entering the second door, Ye Jiayao's eyes suddenly lit up and she saw her nanny Su standing next to her third sister Jinyao.

"Mama Su, you...why are you here?" Ye Jiayao was surprised.

Mother Su smiled, her eyes filled with mist, and her excitement was palpable: "It was the master who picked up the slave, saying that the eldest lady was back."

After only saying this, Su's mother's voice choked up: "I thought I would never see the eldest lady again in this life."

"Mother Su, am I back now?" Ye Jiayao was so happy. She had originally planned to take the time to see Mother Su after coming to Yangzhou, but she didn't expect to see Mother Su as soon as she arrived at Ye's house.

The third sister, Jinyao, was not unhappy because her eldest sister, Mother Su, had neglected her, because her eyes were completely attracted by this tall, handsome man. Is this the eldest brother-in-law? Everyone said how handsome the second brother-in-law was, even more beautiful than Pan An and so on. Now that she saw the eldest brother-in-law, she felt that the second brother-in-law was not even as big as a little finger compared to the eldest brother-in-law.

I can't help but envy my eldest sister. It's a blessing in disguise that she married such a good husband, Prince Jing'an. I can't even think about it. My eldest sister is so lucky.

"Jinyao, hurry up and call someone." Ye Binghuai reminded.

Jinyao looked away with complicated emotions, stepped forward and called out: "Eldest sister, eldest brother-in-law."

Only then did Ye Jiayao take a closer look at the third sister. After the Chinese New Year, the third sister was already thirteen. She had grown a lot taller and looked very graceful. Speaking of it, the three sisters of the Ye family were still the tallest among Jin Yao. nice. She is also quiet. When she is at home, Jin Rong often teases her and teases her, but Jin Yao never participates. Therefore, Ye Jiayao's impression of this third sister is pretty good.

"Third sister has grown up! She is becoming more and more beautiful." Ye Jiayao praised.

Jinyao lowered her head and smiled shyly.

Ye Binghuai said: "Jinyao, take your eldest sister to rest. Your eldest sister is seasick and a little uncomfortable."

Jinyao responded: "Sister, come with me."

In fact, Ye Jiayao was not dizzy at all. The so-called seasickness was just because she didn't want to enter Ye's house. It was because of her emotions. Now that she saw Mother Su, she was no longer dizzy. She wanted to support Mother Su, but she remembered that Mother Su's legs and feet were not good. It is inconvenient to walk in winter. Mother Su, in turn, wanted to help her.

Xia Chunyu originally wanted to wait until Yaoyao got better before talking to Ye Binghuai. Seeing Yaoyao holding Su's mother's arms and looking happy, he had nothing to worry about. They hadn't seen each other for a long time, so they must have a lot to say, so he He wisely avoided it and went to the study room with Ye Binghuai.

"Don't you need to meet your grandparents first?" Xia Chunyu looked at the furnishings in the study room. The books on the two wall cabinets were filled with books. He wondered if they were used for show like his third uncle. After the third uncle became a Jinshi, he stopped reading a lot. He only focused on being an official and neglected his knowledge.

"No hurry, no rush, it's not too late to go after Jinxuan gets better." Ye Binghuai said with a smile.

"It seems a little rude." Xia Chunyu sighed slightly.

"It doesn't matter, Grandma Xuan'er loves her the most."

Xia Chunyu sneered in his heart, what hurts the most? Tell me! Yaoyao is the most grateful. She is willing to show her heart to anyone who treats her well. If her grandparents really loved her, Yaoyao would have gone to pay her respects to her two elders.

Since Ye Binghuai said so, Xia Chunyu didn't care. His coming this time has given Ye Binghuai a great deal of face.

"Last time Zhong Yuan came, the matter was not explained clearly. Father-in-law, what's going on?"

Ye Binghuai couldn't help but look embarrassed. He didn't expect that Chunyu's question would be so straightforward. He coughed twice and said awkwardly: "The thing is like this..."

Ye Jiayao looked at the residence that Ye Binghuai had prepared for her. Yuemingxuan, located in the back garden, was the most exquisite and elegant place in the Ye family. She remembered that Jin Rong liked this place very much and wanted to move here, but Ye Binghuai didn't even agree, but now she let her She lives here.

"Eldest sister, I prepared these. Mom and second sister are not here, and I have no experience. I wonder if eldest sister still likes it?" Jin Yao asked in a low voice.

Ye Jiayao nodded: "I'm very satisfied that you took the trouble."

Jin Yao said: "Sister, let's see what else is needed and just give instructions to the servants."

"Yeah, I will."

"Then... eldest sister, let's take a rest first. My sister will say goodbye first. I'll see eldest sister later." Jinyao curtsied and retreated.

Thinking of that eldest brother-in-law, Jin Yao couldn't describe how she felt. She felt jealous, jealous, and sighed. Who would have thought that this inconspicuous eldest sister would one day rise to the top and become the wife of the Crown Prince? Look at her current magnanimity. In terms of appearance and grace, who can be associated with the sallow, skinny, submissive elder sister back then?

It is really fate that the arrogant second sister thought that she had married a good husband and would be a wealthy lady in the future. However, the second brother-in-law’s career was ruined and he was dejected. When the eldest sister came, the second sister could not even stay at home. , just because the eldest sister said something and didn't want to see her, the second sister had to get away.

Ye Jiayao had no time to care about what Jinyao was thinking, her whole heart was focused on Mother Su.

"Mother Su, are your legs and feet feeling better? Do they still hurt in the rain and snow?" Ye Jiayao asked with concern.

Mother Su smiled and said, "It doesn't hurt anymore. The prince gave me tiger skin knee pads. I wear them every day. They keep me warm."

Ye Jiayao was stunned for a moment. When did Chunyu give Su's mother tiger skin kneepads? Suddenly I remembered that Song Qi had said that after Chunyu came back from Jinan, he asked Song Qi to visit Mother Su. He must have given it to her at that time.

When they were in the mountains, she deliberately said that she would save some money to buy tiger skin knee pads for Su's mother, just to defraud him of some personal money. However, he kept it in mind, thinking that she was gone, and helped her realize this wish.
