The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

"Ah." At night, in Linhuyuan, a noise came from Yang Qi's room.

Mother He, who was in charge of night watch, hurried into the house.

After lighting the candle, Mother He hurried to find Yang Qi on the bed. Seeing Yang Qi's pale lips, sweat on her face, and her serious and painful expression, Mother He felt a little scared. In the past few years, Miss often had nightmares, but the frequency became lower and lower. In the past year, Miss has not had a nightmare. But why did it start again today?

Mother He stepped forward and asked quietly, "Miss, it's okay."

Yang Qi wiped the corners of his eyes, not knowing whether it was sweat or tears. During the day, he thought he had overcome it, but unexpectedly, at night, he dreamed of the fire scene in his previous life again.

Gasping for air, Yang Qi finally saw Mother He clearly in front of him: "Mother He, it's okay."

Mother He looked at Yang Qi who was pretending to be calm, and her heart ached: "Miss, I'll go get some hot water now, wipe yourself off before going to sleep."

Yang Qi shook her head: "Mother He, there's no need to fetch water, just get ready for the bath."

Looking at Yang Qi, He's mother nodded and stepped back.

Following the master's instructions, Mother He called Xinlian over to help prepare Yangqi's bathing supplies.

Yang Qi soaked his whole body in the bathtub. He came out only when he realized he could no longer hold his breath. He did this several times before he finally leaned obediently against the tub.

After taking a shower, He's mother helped dry her hair, using several dry towels.

He's mother had already changed the quilt covers on the bed while Yang Qi was taking a bath.

Yang Qi lay back on the bed, had a nightmare, and took a bath. An hour had passed. She had to visit Han's house later, so she was afraid she wouldn't be able to sleep for long.

After getting out of bed, Yang Qi picked up the "Zizhi Tongjian" and read it tonight. This book was given to him by his elder brother during the Chinese New Year.

The Zizhi Tongjian has 294 volumes and about three million words. When Yang Qi first read it, he found it a little obscure, and Mr. Yang never taught him. However, it is just right for me now.

While reading the book, Yang Qi fell asleep in a daze.

Mother He knew that Yang Qi had a nightmare last night and should get some rest now. But she had to go to Han's house today and had to get up early.

After leaving the house, Yang Qi looked at the dark circles under Mother He's eyes. He was afraid that Mother He had not closed her eyes after she had a nightmare last night. "Mother He, let Aunt Zhu stay with me today. You should have a good rest at home."

Mother He was a little worried. Just as she was about to speak, Yang Qi patted Mother He's hand and said, "Mother He, just have a good rest."

Yang Qi said so, and He's mother could only nod. After years of getting along, He's mother knew that Zhu Ma was always mature and steady, and with Zhu Ma accompanying her, He's mother was relieved.

After packing up, Yang Qi went to the main house. Now that Song Hongwen has returned home, the frequency of his visits to the main house has greatly increased.

When they arrived at the main house, An, Yang Jing and An Xiaoqiu had already packed up, and Yang He was also there. Today, An wore expensive jewelry on her neck, head and fingers.

Yang Qi sighed as he looked at the rich and noble headdress on An's head. The Han family was a family of scholars, and if An dressed like this, the host family would definitely dislike her. Was she eager to let everyone know that she was from a merchant family?

Yang Jing was the same, like a chick with high morale. Yang Jing was a very popular figure in the northwest, and if she still thought like that today, she would be in for a shock.

Yang Qi entered the house, and Yang Lan arrived right after. Today, Yang Lan was wearing a light blue dress, standing in the sun, which made her look even more beautiful.

Yang Qi looked carefully at the fabric on Yang Lan's body and exclaimed, "Second sister, are you wearing Shu brocade today?"

Yang Lan nodded: "Some time ago, the emperor rewarded my grandfather, and my grandfather saw the color and cut this dress for me."

When Yang Lan said this, Yang Jing and An Xiaoqiu's faces changed. This Shu brocade was really rare. Not to mention Yang Jing, even An had never seen it before.

Yang Jing is young and can't hide the envy on her face.

An coughed a few times and focused everyone's attention on herself: "Let's go."

Heading towards the sedan chair, An said to Yang Lan, "Lan'er, I heard that you have a very good relationship with Princess Cheng'an and Princess Pingning?"

When Yang Qi heard the name An, her eyelids twitched. This An is really something. They met for the first time yesterday, and today she is pretending to be a loving mother and daughter?

Yang Lan didn't react much: "I just played the piano with the nobles. I have seen it a few times at parties before."

An nodded: "Then Lan'er, Qi'er, you and Bai Yuxin, the daughter of the Bai family, are both disciples of Mr. Yang. I think you have a good relationship in private. If you can see them later, please take care of your cousin and sister."

It seems that Anshi has done his homework, and is going to let Yang Lan and himself pave the way for Yang Jing and An Xiaoqiu. With Yang Lan around, Yang Qi will not force himself to take the lead.

Yang Lan looked up at An and said, "Miss Bai is indeed Mr. Yang's disciple. Mr. Yang teaches very quickly and has little time to leave the house in recent years, so naturally we haven't had much contact."

Yang Qi nodded and said, "Mr.'s teaching progress is very famous in the capital." If anyone is interested in finding out about these things, they will know that Yang Lan is not talking nonsense.

Before An spoke, Yang Jing couldn't help but said, "Second sister, third sister, you have been in the capital for so many years, and you are the legitimate daughters of the Duke's Mansion. How could you not know these nobles? You just don't want to take me and cousin Xiaoqiu with you."

An Xiaoqiu, who was standing by, felt a headache when she heard Yang Jing say that so carelessly. Yang Qi and Yang Lan were not vegetarians, so how could these two people take her with them after hearing these words?

Yang Lan listened to Yang Jing's words, his face was a little heavy. Looking at Yang Jing's expression, these words must have been instigated by others. If the mother wanted to take Yang Jing with her, she would have just asked now and not said these things. These words were always said by An Xiaoqiu on the side: "Sixth sister, these words should be said in the mansion. The capital is under the feet of the emperor. Even if we are the daughters of the Duke's Mansion, we are also the subjects of the emperor. If the sixth sister wants to show off as the daughter of the Duke's Mansion in the capital, I'm afraid she has come to the wrong place."

Yang Lan was not a nosy person, but An and Yang Jing looked like they might bring shame to the Duke's Mansion at the banquet, so Yang Lan gave them a few more warnings.

An's outfit was uncomfortable to wear, and coupled with Yang Jing's reckless words, she looked inferior as soon as she entered the Duke's Mansion today.

Yang Qi watched from the side and had to say that the old lady's teaching of Yang Lan was really successful. At least, Yang Lan now completely put the interests of the Duke's Mansion first.
