After rebirth, the daughter of the marquisate went crazy

Although Xia Wanyue felt a little embarrassed, she still followed the old woman to the back.

Ye Qingyu looked at Xia Wanyue who couldn't wait to leave, her smile gradually disappeared, and her beautiful little face was frosty.

If she really had feelings for her fourth cousin, for him as a person, rather than for the Duke's Mansion, she wouldn't mind persuading her grandfather to let her become her fourth cousin's wife. She and her grandfather would deliberately drive her fourth cousin out of the Duke's Mansion. From then on, he would be a commoner and could not give her a rich and luxurious life. Let's see if she would still choose to be with her fourth cousin.

He Rui deliberately met He Rui by chance. He Rui liked weak women like Xia Wanyue. He Rui fell in love with her to see if she would waver and leave her fourth cousin. He also wanted to let his fourth cousin see Xia Wanyue's true face so that he would remember it.

Not long after, a maid came to report, "Miss, Miss Xia left with that young man."

"Oh, I see."

At dusk, Xia Wanyue returned with a happy face. Seeing Ye Qingyu looking at her with a smile, she explained in a panic, "Mr. He said he wanted to treat me to a meal to make amends."

Ye Qingyu smiled and said, "It seems that Mr. He is a good person. Sister Xia, did you give him a good meal?"

Xia Wanyue said angrily, "Sister Qingyu, you're making fun of me again. I'm not going to talk to you anymore. I'm going back to my room first."

Ye Qingyu looked at Xia Wanyue, who was walking briskly and in a good mood, and couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips.

It seems that the fish has taken the bait.

The next day, Ye Qingyu went to the Duke's Mansion early in the morning. Seeing her third cousin, who had recovered his spirits, Ye Qingyu smiled and asked, "Third cousin, are you sure you can take first place? I bet five hundred taels of silver at the Wanfu Restaurant on you taking first place."

Xu smiled and said, "You really have confidence in your cousin, kid. I just hope he doesn't fail the exam."

Gu Huaizhi smiled helplessly, "Mother, you have too little confidence in your son. Although I'm not sure of winning the first place, I still have a chance of getting the first place."

As a few people were chatting, they saw the Duke walk into the flower hall with a sullen face and the gait of a dragon or a tiger.

"Grandfather."

Seeing Ye Qingyu, the Duke's expression softened a little, "Qingqing is here, sit down and talk."

Ye Qingyu sat down next to the Duke and said gently, "Grandfather, who offended you? Qingqing will help you teach him a lesson!"

The Duke smiled kindly, "Our Qingqing is sensible and considerate, but you brats just make me angry." The Duke glared at Gu Huaizhi.

Gu Huaizhi smiled helplessly, "Grandfather, you don't have to worry about Fourth Brother. He's young and full of vigor. He has his uncle and elder brother protecting him at the border. Naturally, he doesn't know the treacherous nature of human beings. Now is a good time for him to gain some experience."

Gu Huaizhi looked indifferent, with no intention of pleading for his cousin.

"Yes, grandpa, fourth cousin is ignorant. You have already beaten him with a stick. Please don't be angry," Ye Qingyu comforted him in a gentle voice.

After comforting her grandfather, Ye Qingyu stayed for a short while before getting up and leaving.

As soon as I walked out of the gate of the Duke's Mansion, I saw King Chu Shen Yanli getting off the carriage.

Ye Qingyu stepped forward and saluted with surprise. "Your Highness greets His Highness the Prince of Chu. Are you here to visit my third cousin?"

As expected, the relationship between the two is very good. In the previous life, the cousin had no chance of a career in officialdom, so he went to the Prince of Chu's Palace to work as an aide to the Prince of Chu. With Shen Yanli's care, the third cousin quickly got out of his frustration, but what happened later was something no one expected.

Shen Yanli glanced at her indifferently, lowered his eyes and nodded softly.

"Has Huaizhi woken up?"

The imperial examination lasted for nine consecutive days and consisted of three sessions. Those who were weak fainted as soon as they left the examination room. Gu Huaizhi was considered strong among the scholars, but the intense thinking for nine consecutive days was not something that ordinary people could withstand. He fell into a deep sleep after returning from the exam.

Ye Qingyu smiled and said, "Third cousin has woken up."

At this time, the doorman had already gone in to report the news, and my grandfather and third cousin also came to greet us.

Seeing that someone had come out, Ye Qingyu knew it was time for her to return home, so she was about to leave.

"Miss Ye, stay."

When Ye Qingyu heard Shen Yanli's cold and clear voice, she turned around and looked at him with some confusion, wondering what he wanted to say.

Then the servant beside him took a food box from the carriage and handed it to Ye Qingyu.

"This is a snack from the palace. I don't like sweets, so I give it to Miss Ye as a thank you gift for cooking it myself that day." Shen Yanli said lightly, lowering his eyebrows and not even looking at Ye Qingyu.

Ye Qingyu was a little surprised, but smiled happily, "Thank you, Your Highness. I would be honored to decline your offer."

Ye Qingyu took the snacks and got on the carriage and left.

Gu Huaizhi stepped forward to push his wheelchair, and a low laugh reached Shen Yanli's ears, "It's been a few days since we last met. Your Highness has become much more sensible."

Shen Yanli snorted coldly, "Get lost."

Ye Qingyu returned to Wanyan Pavilion, and Nianchun stepped forward to report, "Miss, Miss Xia left shortly after you left."

Ye Qingyu nodded to indicate that she understood.

"Chunhui Hall, someone came to call the young lady over an hour ago."

"I know. Don't worry."

Ye Qingyu walked leisurely into the inner room and changed her clothes. Then she heard voices outside.

Nianchun came in and reported, "Miss, someone from Chunhui Hall has come to ask you to come over."

Ye Qingyu frowned, tidied up her frizzy black hair, and walked out with Nianchun.

Nanny Chen hurriedly bowed when she saw Ye Qingyu, "Miss, the old lady has been waiting for you for a long time. Please come over."

Ye Qingyu nodded calmly.

Inside Chunhui Hall, there was laughter and chatter, as if there were outsiders present.

Ye Qingyu had no idea what Old Madam Ye was up to and was very cautious.

As she approached slowly and gracefully, Mrs. Ye's face was full of wrinkles from her smile. Compared to before her serious illness, Mrs. Ye looked much older and no longer as energetic as before.

"This is my eldest granddaughter, Qingyu. Come meet Madam Yu."

Ye Qingyu smiled faintly and bowed, "Hello, Madam."

Madam Yu looked at Ye Qingyu with a smile, "Good, good, Madam, your granddaughter is really good-looking and has a good temperament."

"This is our first meeting, and I didn't prepare any gifts. Just take this bracelet and play with it." Madam Yu took off the jade bracelet on her wrist and was about to put it on Ye Qingyu's wrist.

Ye Qingyu hadn't figured out the situation yet, so how could she accept it? She quickly pulled her hand away and took a half step back, "Madam, this is too valuable. I appreciate your kindness, but I can't accept this bracelet."

The old lady said, "A gift from an elder cannot be refused, Qingyu, just accept it."

Ye Qingyu shook her head, firmly refusing to accept it. "Madam Yu is a distinguished guest of the Marquisate. How can we accept gifts from distinguished guests? This is not the way we treat guests in our Marquisate."

Seeing that she was determined not to accept him, Madam Yu did not want to force him. She smiled and said, "Qingyu is indeed sensible and considerate. Whoever marries such a good child will be blessed."
