After rebirth, the daughter of the marquisate went crazy

Ye Qingyu followed the butler to Lord Ye's study.

This was Ye Qingyu's first time coming to this place. No matter in her past life or this life, she had never been qualified to set foot in this place.

"My lady, the Marquis is waiting for you in the study."

After the housekeeper left, Ye Qingyu had just taken two steps when she saw Lu Qianqian pushing the door and coming out of the study.

She looked at Ye Qingyu with pride and complacency, "Sister, I heard that grandmother found a good marriage for you. Congratulations to you."

Ye Qingyu was too lazy to deal with her and said calmly, "My cousin is not well-informed. That marriage has already fallen through, don't you know?"

Lu Qianqian paused, her expression turning grim. "Really? Even if this marriage doesn't work out, there's always the next one. It seems Grandmother still cares about you. She just got better and wanted to find someone for you. I'm not saying anything, but the second son of the Yu family is a good match for you. If you missed this marriage, you're not sure what the next one will be like."

"Then don't worry about it, cousin."

Lu Qianqian's smile froze for a moment. "By the way, I heard that my sister is very fond of the Fourth Prince. I've gotten to know him a lot better these past few days. Why don't I ask him how he feels about my sister?"

Ye Qingyu looked up at her, her dark eyes seemed covered with a layer of ice, which made Lu Qianqian's heart tremble.

"Where did you hear those dirty words, cousin? When did I ever admire the Fourth Prince? His Highness and I have only met a few times. It's fine if you slander my innocence, but you even dare to tarnish the reputation of the prince. Do you want to die?"

Lu Qianqian was so frightened by Ye Qingyu's sudden harsh look that she was speechless.

"What are you arguing about? Ye Qingyu, come in!"

"Qianqian, you go back first."

Lu Qianqian responded obediently and sweetly, "Yes, Daddy."

She glanced at Ye Qingyu triumphantly and left gracefully.

Ye Qingyu curled up the corner of her mouth in a sneer, and pushed the door into the study with an expressionless face.

"Why did the father call his daughter here?"

Lord Ye slammed the book in his hand onto the desk with a bang. He looked grim and glared at Ye Qingyu angrily, "Don't you know why I'm looking for you? Are you the one who spread the rumors outside? How dare you come to see me!"

Ye Qingyu's expression was calm. "It was my daughter who did it. Didn't my father ask me to come here? If this is the only thing I need to do, I will take my leave."

"Evil girl, kneel down!"

"My daughter did nothing wrong, why should she kneel?"

Marquis Ye's face was dark blue. "You are truly rebellious! You have caused so much trouble these days and have ruined the reputation of the Marquisate. And you still don't know your mistakes. Come, impose family discipline on me!"

Ye Qingyu sneered, "Father is wrong. It's you who ruined the reputation of the Marquisate. What does it have to do with me? As for the rumors.

If the old lady had not bullied me and manipulated my marriage, wanting to betroth me to a useless man who had accomplished nothing as his second wife, I would not have resorted to such a desperate measure. Father, don’t you know how to persuade the old lady to take good care of herself and stop interfering in other people’s business, instead of just showing off your power in front of your daughter!

Father, you can try. If you touch me, tomorrow, I will let all the people in Kyoto know that you treat your legitimate daughter harshly. You will beat me to death to make room for your stepdaughter who has not yet married you!"

"You!" Lord Ye picked up the inkstone at hand and stared at Ye Qingyu with a fierce look in his eyes. His fierce expression seemed as if he was going to smash the heavy inkstone on her head at the next moment.

Ye Qingyu stood there calmly, not afraid of his furious expression at all.

Since everything will be blamed on her, she is not afraid of falling out. The worst that can happen is to act in advance and leave this disgusting place.

Looking at his daughter standing proudly, aloof and cold, Lord Ye seemed to see the deceased Gu. She always looked at him so proudly and dignifiedly, as if he was an ant in the dust. He knew that she always looked down on him.

Lord Ye took a deep breath and put down the inkstone in his hand. "Go away and behave yourself from now on."

Ye Qingyu sneered, "My daughter will take her leave."

He is indeed a timid and cowardly person. I don’t know how a noble and cold lady like my mother can be interested in such a cowardly and incompetent person.

On the day the results were announced, the sky was clear and the sun was particularly dazzling.

Ye Qingyu had someone book a private room at Wanfu Restaurant early on just to watch the results being announced up close.

Even though Ye Qingyu left home a little earlier, the carriage was stuck in the middle of the road and could not move, so she had to get off and walk to Wanfu Restaurant.

Today is really extraordinarily lively, with a bustling crowd of people and a constant flow of traffic. Young ladies, young men and scholars from various families come out to see the list.

She finally arrived at the restaurant and entered the private room. Ye Qingya and Ye Yanzhi were already waiting there.

"Why are you so slow?" Ye Qingya walked up to her, hugged her arm, and muttered softly.

Ye Qingyu smiled softly and said, "The road was really congested. I had to walk a long way."

Ye Yanzhi nodded in agreement and said, "Today, almost half of the people in Kyoto City went out to check the list. It's not surprising that there are so many people and carriages on the road."

Ye Qingya smiled playfully and proudly, "My brother and I left early, so we didn't get stuck on the road."

Ye Qingyu smiled and said, "Qingya is still amazing." She looked up at Ye Yanzhi, "Brother, who do you think will be the top of the list this year?"

Ye Qingya rushed to speak, her eyes sparkling, "Of course if it's Mr. Gu San, I have bet fifty taels of silver on him, that's all my fortune." Ye Qingya clenched her fists, a little flame flickering in her eyes.

Seeing her like this, Ye Qingyu couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Ye Yanzhi was also amused by his sister's fighting spirit and smiled helplessly, lowering his head to drink a sip of tea.

"What are you laughing at, big sister? Didn't you beat the Third Young Master to first place?" Ye Qingya frowned and looked at the two of them unhappily.

Ye Qingyu smiled brightly and gently, "Of course, my third cousin is better. Although my third cousin is knowledgeable and talented, in the exam, it's not just about knowledge, it's mainly about luck."

"If you don't believe me, ask my brother."

Ye Qingyu turned around and looked at her elder brother with questioning eyes.

Ye Yanzhi shook his head helplessly, "Qingyu is right, luck is very important."

Ye Qingya lowered her head and pondered for a moment, then raised her face with a fighting spirit, "The Third Young Master has a noble character, is gentle as jade, and has an elegant demeanor. He will surely be blessed with good fortune."

Ye Qingyu chuckled softly, and Wanqiu followed suit, covering her lips with her hands. She glanced at Ye Qingya's maid Qingzhi, who held her forehead with helplessness.

Her young lady was really embarrassing, luckily only the eldest daughter was there.

Ye Yanzhi sighed helplessly, "Is it as you wish, you?"

Suddenly there was a commotion outside."

"The list is out, the list is out!"

Ye Qingya's eyes sparkled, "Qingzhi, go see who's first."
