Ye Qingyu smiled and said, "Don't worry, aunt. I know my limits. If there are any difficulties, I will naturally trouble you."

Xu nodded, "Okay, I will personally take you back to the Marquis' Mansion tomorrow."

Ye Qingyu knew her third aunt's concerns, so she had no choice but to agree.

The next day, Xu personally sent Ye Qingyu back to Qingyuan Hou Mansion.

The Marquis's Mansion was full of people coming in and out. The day after tomorrow was the auspicious day for the Marquis to get married and marry his second wife, and the servants in the mansion were extremely busy.

When the doorman saw Ye Qingyu coming back, he didn't even step forward to greet her. He didn't take Ye Qingyu seriously at all and just lowered his head to do his own thing.

In front of the gate, only Nianchun and the servants from Wanyan Pavilion came to greet them.

Nianchun's face was full of smiles. "Miss, you are finally back. I missed you so much."

Ye Qingyu smiled and said, "I miss you so much, Miss."

"It's really lively in the mansion. The servants are so busy that they don't even have any manners." Ye Qingyu looked at the two doormen with an unchanged smile.

Nian Chunye saw that the doorman didn't even show any sign of greeting Ye Qingyu, and she was furious. "You two, are you blind? Didn't you see the young lady is back?"

The doorman reluctantly stepped forward and saluted. "Greetings, Miss. Welcome back home. Please forgive us, we are not busy with the Marquis's wedding. We really don't mean to treat you poorly."

Wanqiu sneered, "You two just need to watch your door and treat the distinguished guest with courtesy. What are you busy with? Counting ants?"

The doorman looked unhappy and said, "You and I are both servants. What qualifications do you have to lecture me?"

He looked arrogant, and the way he looked at Ye Qingyu didn't show any respect at all, but rather a bit of disdain.

The master of the Marquis' Mansion is about to change. The eldest daughter is not liked by the Marquis and the old lady, and now the mistress has changed. In order to please the mistress, they naturally have to treat Ye Qingyu poorly in order to please the new lady.

Everyone present knew what the concierge was thinking. Xu sneered, "What a noble servant! This concubine, who hasn't even entered the family yet, treats the legitimate daughter of the emperor indifferently just to please her. The Qingyuan Marquis's mansion is truly a place of bad character!"

"This lady has already said that you people from the Qingyuan Marquis' Mansion can bully anyone, but you must not bully Qingqing. Come, tie up these two disrespectful servants and beat them up!"

The doorman was now afraid, but he still stiffened his neck and struggled, "Madam Gu San, you, you have no right to touch us. We are servants of the Qingyuan Marquis's Mansion, not of your Zhenguogong Mansion!"

More and more people gathered around to watch the fun, and their faces were full of ridicule when they saw such a disrespectful servant to his master.

"This Qingyuan Marquis Mansion is really becoming more and more out of shape."

"Yes, even if there is a new mistress, the eldest daughter is still his master. It seems that the new mistress ordered him to humiliate a legitimate daughter so openly."

"I think so too. Otherwise, how could they have the guts to treat a legitimate daughter like this? Even if Miss Ye is not valued by the Marquis, she is still their master. Without anyone backing them up, how could they dare to treat Miss Ye like this?"

The gatekeeper saw the people pointing and talking at them, all with contempt, and he knew he was afraid. "We are here on the orders of the Marquis. Why are you being so aggressive, Miss? This is your own home. Isn't it like this every time you come back?"

Ye Qingyu's faint smile gradually faded.

In the past, these servants also looked down upon her. Everyone looked at Lord Ye and the old lady's behavior and treated them differently. She didn't want to care before because she still had hope for those people. Now, she can let these stubborn servants bully her.

Ye Qingyu said calmly, "Yes, you used to treat me like this, your master, and you didn't even bother to greet me. You said your third aunt had no right to touch you, but I'm your master, and I have every right to touch you. Beat me hard, fifty lashes."

Just in front of the gate of the Marquis' Mansion, the guards of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion were escorting two doormen to beat them with sticks, and Third Aunt came out trotting.

"stop!"

"Qingyu, what are you doing!"

Ye Qingyu turned around and saluted her Third Aunt. "Don't panic, Third Aunt. These two wicked servants have damaged the reputation of our mansion. They just happened to fall into my hands. I know you are busy, so I will teach them a lesson for you."

Third Aunt's face was grim, but she had to put on a stiff smile, "Qingyu, it's not easy to shed blood on such a happy day, so you should spare their lives. If you don't calm down, it won't be too late to teach them a lesson after your father's wedding."

Third Aunt wanted to calm things down first. How could she let outsiders laugh at her at this moment?

Ye Qingyu still smiled elegantly, "Don't worry, Third Aunt, the people in the Zhenguo Mansion are all good at beating people with sticks, and they will be done with it quickly."

Seeing Ye Qingyu pretending to be ignorant, Third Aunt also lost her smile. "Qingyu, stop messing around. You hit a servant outside the Marquis's mansion gate. Aren't you deliberately making a fool of our family?"

Ye Qingyu chuckled, her face full of sarcasm. "So Third Aunt thinks we're occupying the land of the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion. Well, then, let's fight from a distance and don't dirty the land of the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion. We're getting married the day after tomorrow, and it wouldn't be auspicious to have blood all over the ground. Third Aunt is really thoughtful."

Auntie San saw that Ye Qingyu was determined to assert her authority when she returned today. She had no way of controlling her, as she wasn't her own daughter. "If you're not afraid of being scolded by your father and grandmother, then do as you please."

Ye Qingyu smiled faintly, "Thank you, Third Aunt, for the reminder. Take those two and fight them far away."

Seeing Ye Qingyu's stubborn look, Third Aunt sighed, turned around and went back to the house, thinking that out of sight might as well be out of mind.

Seeing that Ye Qingyu really didn't give the people in the Marquis' Mansion any good face, Xu felt happy but also worried.

"You've offended people the moment you came back. Your heartless father will definitely cause trouble for you."

Ye Qingyu knew her aunt's worries. "Don't worry, Third Aunt. Even if I do nothing, he will still cause trouble for me. You sent me to the Marquis' Mansion, and you can go back first. There are still a lot of things waiting for you to deal with in the Duke's Mansion. I can handle this little thing."

Xu knew that she wanted to solve it herself, so she agreed, "Okay, then Third Aunt will go back first. You should take care of yourself. If you need anything, send someone to notify the Duke's Mansion."

Ye Qingyu nodded, watched Xu get on the carriage, and then she led everyone slowly into the mansion.

As soon as he reached the door of Wanyan Pavilion, he was blocked by Zhao Ma and her men.

"My lady, the old lady asked me to invite you to Chunhui Hall."

Aunt Zhao said with a sullen face, "Miss, please come in."

Ye Qingyu nodded indifferently and followed Madam Zhao towards Chunhui Hall.

Ye Qingyu hadn't seen anyone from the Marquis' Mansion for over a month. In Chunhui Hall, Marquis Ye, Chen Yinyin, and Lu Qianqian were all there. They watched Ye Qingyu walk in, as if they were having a trial.
