The next day, Ye Qingyu slept until noon before getting up.

House arrest naturally means that you don’t have to pay your respects to the old lady, and no one will care if you sleep in. This is one of the benefits.

Wanqiu saw that she had gotten up, so he came in with the toiletries.

The weather was clear and sunny today, and the morning sun was gentle. Ye Qingyu asked Wanqiu to put breakfast in the yard.

Just as she sat down, she heard Ye Qingya's angry voice at the gate of the courtyard.

Ye Qingya had just learned this morning that Ye Qingyu was under house arrest, so she hurried to see her.

The old women were guarding the door and wouldn't let her in. Ye Qingya got angry and called a few guards to throw them aside.

The old woman shouted fiercely, "Second Miss, the eldest lady's house arrest was ordered by the Marquis and the old lady. You acted like this, showing that you completely disregarded them. This servant will definitely inform the old lady of Second Miss's actions!"

Ye Qingya said nonchalantly, "Go ahead and file a complaint. What else can you do besides filing a complaint? Humph, she restricted Ye Qingyu's footing, but she didn't restrict mine. So what if I want to enter Wanyan Pavilion? How dare you, a bitch, not take me, your master, seriously? Come, give me twenty lashes of the board."

"Second Miss, I belong to the old lady. You have no right to touch me!"

"I did move, but if she has the guts, she can restrain me! Humph!" Ye Qingyu walked in angrily.

Ye Qingyu was seen sitting in the yard, eating breakfast leisurely, without any sign of grievance or sadness from being confined.

"You just had breakfast, did you just get up?"

Ye Qingyu nodded leisurely, "Yeah, it feels so good to be able to stay in bed."

Ye Qingya rolled her eyes a little enviously, "My worries were all in vain. You are completely fine."

"It's just a confinement. I expected it."

"But you, if you make such a fuss, be careful that she will confine you."

Ye Qingya curled her lips, acting nonchalant, "I wish I could, but I'm too lazy to go and pay my respects to him."

"Wow, so many delicious foods. You're eating so well even though you're grounded?" Ye Qingya looked at the table full of breakfast with envy.

Wanqiu smiled and said, "Second Miss, these were all bought at Tianfu Restaurant. The food sent by the kitchen is simply inedible."

Ye Qingya sat down opposite Ye Qingyu and picked up a piece of lotus cake to eat. "Tsk tsk, you really are enjoying your confinement."

"How long will your confinement last? You should be released on the old lady's birthday."

"Who knows?" Ye Qingyu said indifferently.

"On the day of the birthday banquet, stay with Second Aunt and don't wander around."

"What else can I do at home?" Ye Qingya curled her lips and didn't take her words to heart.

The two sisters were chatting when they saw Lu Qianqian with a group of people, and the maids were holding various materials in their hands.

She walked over with a smug look on her face, and when she saw Ye Qingya was there, she looked even smuger, "Both cousins ​​are here."

"Qianqian, I'd like to trouble you two cousins ​​to advise me on something. Qianqian is new in Kyoto and doesn't know what the clothing styles are like here. These fabrics were given to Qianqian by my great-aunt and Uncle Ye, saying they wanted to make a few dresses for my great-aunt's birthday party."

Lu Qianqian looked very proud. "Cousins, please help me find out which material is more suitable for my great-aunt's birthday party."

Ye Qingya was outspoken and said, "Why, are you showing off here?"

Lu Qianqian lowered her head pitifully, feeling wronged. "Qianqian didn't do that. Second cousin misunderstood. Qianqian was just afraid that she didn't know anything and would ruin the reputation of the Marquisate."

Ye Qingya bit into a lotus cake and rolled her eyes at her. "What does your embarrassment have to do with the Marquis' Mansion? You're just a relative from the old lady's family. Even if you behaved impolitely, people are only making fun of your family's upbringing. The Marquis' Mansion will only be accused of not being able to judge people well."

Ye Qingya couldn't stand Lu Qianqian's affectation and didn't give her any face at all.

Lu Qianqian covered her lips, her voice choked with sobs. "Qianqian just wanted to ask my two cousins ​​for advice. It was my great-aunt's order that I could ask my eldest cousin if I had any questions. Second cousin missed me so much, Qianqian shouldn't have come."

Lu Qianqian left feeling aggrieved.

Ye Qingya took the handkerchief and wiped her hands, snorting sarcastically, "Do you really think you are a lady from a wealthy family? How dare you show off in front of me?"

Ye Qingya smiled and said, "Don't mess with her, she's very powerful."

"Her." Ye Qingya curled her lips in disdain.

After eating and drinking her fill, Ye Qingya left with satisfaction.

Ye Qingyu leaned on the rocking chair and read a book. The warm sunshine fell on her, making her feel warm and pleasant. The breeze blew on her face. It seemed that she had never had such a quiet and peaceful life in her previous life.

It's almost time for the old lady's birthday party, and it's going to be so lively...

On the day of the old lady's birthday banquet, the entire mansion was in an uproar before dawn.

Ye Qingyu was lightly asleep and was woken up by the noise.

"Miss, are you awake?"

Today was Nianchun's night shift. She glanced out the window irritably and saw the young lady's face full of impatience at being woken up.

Nianchun whispered, "Today is the old lady's birthday banquet, and it's especially noisy outside. Miss, you should get some more sleep. It's still early."

Ye Qingyu knew that today was the old lady's birthday banquet. Although she had prepared herself not to sleep in today, she did not expect to be woken up so early.

She lifted the quilt with a bad temper and resentment of not getting enough sleep, and said, "Get up."

"Yes."

Nianchun came out of the room, brought toiletries, and waited on the side. "Miss, are you really not going to the birthday banquet today?"

As the legitimate daughter of the Marquis, if the young lady does not show up at the birthday banquet, people will definitely speculate about her and some unpleasant things might be said.

Are the old lady and the marquis really not afraid of people talking about the marquis's mansion? Until today, the old lady has not sent anyone to inform them that the young lady's house arrest has been lifted.

"Of course not."

A faint sneer appeared on Ye Qingyu's lips. Today's birthday banquet was quite exciting, and she didn't want to be involved in it. This was the benefit of being under house arrest. Even if the old lady invited her in a sedan chair, she would not go. Those guests who came to attend the birthday banquet today, huh, a bunch of unlucky people.

"Tell Grandfather that he doesn't need to come today?"

"Yes, I informed the Duke long ago."

Ye Qingyu wiped her hands with a handkerchief and nodded.

Mo Shu quietly climbed over the wall to Tianfu Restaurant to buy today's breakfast, filling a large table.

"Come eat with me."

Today is the old lady's birthday party, and the head kitchen will certainly use this as an excuse not to send her food. The servants are also very busy, and it is not known whether they can have breakfast.

"Thank you, Miss, for the breakfast."

The maids all knew that Ye Qingyu was kind and always treated the servants well and not too pretentious, so they sat down and had breakfast with Ye Qingyu.
