Traveled through time and became the darling of the whole family

"Sister, I feel that you are ..."

"I don't recognize her as my grandmother. Anyway, everyone knows that I was adopted. She was not nice to my parents. I don't like her."

"She's not nice to her parents?"

"Yes, they are obviously all her children, but she always favors the second and third wives. Sister, let me tell you, you should have less contact with the second and third wives in normal times, and don't bring bad luck to yourself."

Ye Ziyu wanted to ask the old lady in detail how she treated her parents badly, but Ye Qingyin did not elaborate and just told her to see for herself later.

The day before the plum blossom viewing banquet, all the clothes custom-made in Caiyi Pavilion were embroidered and delivered to the mansion.

Ye Ziyu looked at the clothes in front of her and twitched her lips. Ye Qingyin laughed out loud when she saw Ye Ziyu's expression, "Hahaha, sister, I really reminded you, but you still let me choose a few pieces for you."

At first, Ye Ziyu didn’t expect Jiang Xu’s taste to be so bad. After all, they were from a wealthy family. But when she saw the clothes in front of her, she fell into deep thought.

When Jiang Xu heard that the embroiderer had delivered the clothes to Ye Ziyu, she hurried over, "Oh, the clothes are here, let me take a look, they are very nice. You can wear this at the plum blossom viewing banquet tomorrow." Jiang Xu picked up a style she had chosen herself.

Ye Ziyu didn't know how to refuse and looked to Ye Qingyin for help.

Ye Qingyin smiled and said, "Mom, this dress is not suitable for the plum blossom viewing banquet. The scene of the banquet tomorrow is relatively white. This dress looks too dark in that scene and will make my sister look a little old. Take a look at this one. Is the color more suitable?" Ye Qingyin walked over and picked up another one to show Jiang Xu.

"Hmm - it seems that's the case after comparing them. Then Ayu can wear the one that sister picked out tomorrow, and save this one for next time." Jiang Xu put down the dress, "Is there any other suitable headwear?"

Ye Ziyu breathed a sigh of relief. If her mother insisted that she wear that, she wouldn't know how to refuse. "Yes, mother. My sister bought me a lot of headwear."

"Okay, if it's not enough, I'll take you out for a walk later. You sisters can have fun by yourselves. I still have some affairs in the mansion to deal with, so I'll go take care of them first."

"Goodbye, mother." The two of them saluted.

"Luckily, I have my sister's help, otherwise I really don't know how to convince my mother."

"Hahaha, you, why don't you just tell mom directly? Just say you don't like it."

"I was worried that if I told my mother that I didn't like her, it would hurt her feelings. I couldn't find a suitable excuse at the moment, so I had to ask my sister for help."

"That's right. It's hard to wipe out a girl's passion, but you have to try on these clothes. She must want to see how they look on her."

"There will be a chance. Next time, wear it and walk around mother, letting her see enough." Ye Ziyu said with a smile.

next day

Ye Ziyu thought it would be safer to keep it simple today, so she asked Liqiu to dress her up. Her facial makeup didn't need to be too delicate, and her hair was combed into a bun with a simple hairpin. After finishing her makeup, Ye Ziyu looked at herself in the mirror and thought she shouldn't be too outstanding.

After everything was ready, Ye Ziyu went to Ye Qingyin's place to look for her. The two sisters were stunned when they saw each other. Ye Ziyu sighed that her sister's title of the most beautiful woman was well-deserved, while Ye Qingyin sighed that Ayu's simple and elegant dress today made her look a little colder. After reacting, Ye Ziyu spoke first: "Sister, this dress makes you more beautiful and charming. By the way, sister, I have never attended a banquet before. Do you think this dress is suitable for me?"

Ye Ziyu wanted to dress this way because the daughters of various families would surely be dressed up beautifully at today's banquet, and she did not want to draw too much attention to herself, so she thought of dressing this way to reduce her presence. However, she was also worried that this outfit was a bad omen and would bring unnecessary trouble to the General's Mansion.

Ye Qingyin smiled: "The pink and white clothes matched with simple hair accessories and elegant makeup are not too monotonous, but have a different flavor. Why didn't I think of such an outfit before?"

"That's good. I was worried that it wouldn't be appropriate to wear this way, as if I were attending a funeral." Ye Ziyu leaned close to Ye Qingyin and whispered the last sentence in her ear.

"Puchi, it's okay. After all, your overall outfit is pink and white, not all white. Let's go, don't keep me waiting."

"Good~"

When Ye Ziyu and Ye Qingyin arrived at the gate of the Ye Mansion, Jiang Xu was already waiting there. Seeing the two sisters coming over, he said, "You are worthy of being my daughters, so pretty." Jiang Xu pinched the two sisters' faces with both hands.

"My mother is also very beautiful today."

"Yes, yes, mother looks good today too. Let's go, we'll be late if we don't go out now."

"Wait a little longer, Xinhe hasn't arrived yet."

"Mom, do you really want to take her with you?" Ye Qingyin was unhappy.

"Yes, what your grandmother said makes sense. I am the mistress of the house now, and I should help with Xinhe's marriage. I know you don't like her very much. Later, you and Ayu will ride in one carriage, and Xinhe will ride with me." Jiang Xu said with a smile.

"Mother, it's okay. Second sister can just ride in the same carriage with us." Ye Ziyu spoke and pulled Ye Qingyin's arm.

Ye Qingyin didn't understand why her sister did this. She also knew that she didn't like Ye Xinhe, but she still said, "Yes, mother, let's go together."

Jiang Xu knew how much Qingyin hated the second family and how she didn't like being with them, but now she was willing to ride in the same carriage with them, which made her feel relieved.

"Mother, it's windy outside and you're not feeling well. Please get in the carriage and wait. We'll wait for my second sister outside. Lixia, go ask my second sister how long it will take and remind her not to miss the time."

"Yes, ma'am, please get in the carriage first." Mother Yang advised. She had just advised, but Jiang Xu refused and insisted on waiting for them downstairs.

"Well, why don't you guys go and wait in the carriage? We've already sent someone to ask, so you don't want to catch a cold." Jiang Xu insisted on waiting downstairs, mainly because she wanted to wait for her baby daughters.

"Okay, my sister and I will get in the car and wait. It's too cold outside. Mom, please go up too." Ye Ziyu said as she pulled her cloak closer.

Back in the carriage, Ye Qingyin asked in confusion: "Why do we have to let her ride in the same carriage with us? I'm so annoyed with her, and I have to stay in the same space with her."

"Silly sister, first of all, my mother is not in good health. I can see that she doesn't look very well. If my second sister is in the same carriage with my mother, I'm afraid my mother won't be able to rest well. Secondly, there may be other distinguished guests arriving at the palace gate. When they see my second sister getting off my mother's carriage, there will definitely be many people who want to make friends with the general's mansion coming forward. Wouldn't that make my second sister proud?"

"You have a point. Fine, fine. Let's go in the same carriage with her."

After waiting for a while, when Ye Qingyin was about to send Xiaoxue to urge her again, Ye Xinhe finally came. She was wearing a light yellow dress that outlined her graceful figure, with a fairy-like cloak on the outside, and light yellow tassels on her bun. Ye Ziyu had only one feeling when she saw this outfit.

cold--

Ye Ziyu shook her body unconsciously, "Second sister, the wind is so strong, and we seem to be appreciating the plum blossoms in the yard today, aren't you cold?" Ye Ziyu didn't understand. If a man saw this outfit, he would indeed be attracted, but the guests attending the banquet today were all ladies and young ladies from various families.

Ye Xinhe glanced at Ye Ziyu, "What do you know?"

Ye Qingyin rolled her eyes and said, "Sister, don't worry about her. It's her own business if she freezes to death."

Ye Ziyu shrugged.
