The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

Yang Qi had already noticed that Yang He's expression was not right, but he didn't want to have anything to do with Yang He. The two of them looked weak on the surface, but they were full of bad ideas. It would be better to dig a hole for yourself and lie in it than to get involved with them and work together. Last time Yang Lan got smallpox, Aunt Yin and Yang He took this opportunity to drag themselves into the water.

Yang He turned to Yang Qi several times, but turned back again, hesitant to say something. He was expecting Yang Qi to ask something, but he didn't expect Yang Qi to have no reaction. Yang He couldn't help feeling a little panicked. Could it be that this idiot had noticed something and suspected the reason why he had smallpox?

It was Aunt Yin who came up with the idea of ​​letting Yang Qi get smallpox. Originally, Aunt Yin didn't want Yang He to get involved in this matter because Yang He was too young and Aunt Yin was worried that she couldn't keep the secret. Helplessly, Yang He eavesdropped at the door and heard about it. After all, Yang He was young, and if Yang Qi did something slightly different from before, she would suspect that Yang Qi already knew about it.

However, it was Yang He's guilty behavior that indirectly confirmed Yang Qi's guess.

Yang Qi walked quickly back to the Linhu Courtyard with Mother Fan and Mother He. As soon as they arrived, Yang Qi locked herself in the study. Mr. Yang would be here in seven days, so she had to make the most of the time to read more books.

Every time he reads a book, Yang Qi would regret that he had read too few books in his previous life. He had only studied with Mr. Yang for a few days and had to start from scratch for many things.

Go up to the house.

After Yang Qi and Yang He left the yard, Yang Lan sat down next to the old lady and started massaging her legs.

The old lady looked at Yang Lan's actions and was very happy. She patted Yang Lan's head and said, "Don't be busy. I kept you here today because I have something to tell you."

Yang Lan did not stop what she was doing and said, "Grandma, I'm sorry for causing you trouble these days because of Lan'er's affairs. Grandma, please let Lan'er do some of his kindness." As Yang Lan spoke, her tone became softer, making it impossible to refuse.

The old lady was helpless and continued, "Is there any difference in the milk just delivered?"

Yang Lan discovered from the first bite that the milk this time was smoother and tasted better than before: "Grandma, the texture of the milk this time is better."

Seeing that Yang Lan knew what was going on, the old lady continued, "This milk was given by the Queen."

Yang Lan had already guessed that it must be someone important in the palace who came over, but she never expected it to be: "The Queen Mother?" The Queen Mother had no contact with the Duke of Song's Mansion on weekdays.

The old lady looked at Yang Lan's puzzled expression, nodded, and said, "It was sent by Aunt Rong Pei who is beside the Queen. This matter has not been made public." The old lady actually did not guess the Queen's true intention.

Now the eldest and second masters of the Duke of Song's mansion are both away on official duties, and Yang Qing is the only son in the family. Could it be that the Queen Mother saw Yang Qing's potential and is taking the opportunity to win him over? Many thoughts flashed through Yang Lan's mind at once, and then she asked, "Grandmother, is the Queen Mother's reward only for our mansion this time, or will it be given to all the other mansions?"

When the old lady heard Yang Lan's question, she replied, "After Aunt Rong Pei left the house, she also went to the residences of Bai Xiang and several Shangshu." As she spoke, she narrowed her eyes. Yang Lan, who grew up with the old lady, immediately knew that the old lady was a little sleepy.

In order not to disturb the old lady's rest, Yang Lan withdrew. She was still thinking in her heart that the Queen must have got the latest milk and sent some to the residences of important officials. This should be a normal thing, but unfortunately the eldest and second masters of the Duke of Song's mansion were not successful in their official careers and had left the political center of the court. In the eyes of the Queen, Concubine Nian and other people at the center of imperial power, they were already strong on the outside but weak on the inside.

The old lady looked at the background where Yang Lan walked out, and silently said in her heart: Lan'er, you are the hope of the Duke of Song's Mansion. When the old lady first married into the Duke of Song's Mansion, the Duke of Song was still a person who could stand on his own. When he went out by himself, even in a place like the capital, he was the center of attention.

Unfortunately, the old lady watched the Songguo Mansion decline with each generation, which became the biggest regret in her heart. For this reason, after discovering that Song Yangqing and Song Yanglan were teachable talents, the old lady devoted all her efforts, hoping to revive the glory of the Songguo Mansion through her grandchildren.

Both Yang Qing and Yang Lan are very competitive. Yang Qing was admitted to Kongyang Academy with one stroke and has a bright future. As for Yang Lan, it has been seen that she is a real beauty. After she is well educated, it will not be a problem for her to marry into the royal family.

The old lady's calculations in her mind were very clear and precise. If Yang Qi knew what the old lady was thinking now, he could not help but admire her. It must be said that the old lady's current plan was realized in her previous life.

Yang Lan married Yuan Ruiyin and became the most noble woman in the Tianyuan Dynasty.

After entering the government, Yang Qing also successfully joined the Fifth Prince's party. As the new emperor's "brother-in-law", his career started smoothly. Unfortunately, he met An Xiaoqiu, a scheming woman, and gave up his future.

In this life, Yang Qi will never accept his fate and will never continue the life path controlled by the old lady and stepfather in the previous life.

Yang Qi stayed in the study for the entire day, and except for the time for eating and taking a nap, she did not even leave the room. In the evening, Mother He brought a plate of large and fresh oranges into the study, placed the oranges next to Yang Qi, and said, "Miss, your eyes must be tired after reading all day. These oranges were sent by the Sixth Miss of General Xu's Mansion."

After thinking for a while, Mother He added: "Don't worry, Miss. I have already given the errand boy some hard-earned money."

Yang Qi nodded. Mother He's current style of doing things is becoming more and more like that of a mother in charge. She said to Mother He, "Han Chu is also thoughtful. Last time when I went to General Xu's mansion, she saw that I liked to eat fruit, so she sent me this incredible good stuff."

Mother He smiled and said, "It is also the fate of Miss and Miss Xu Liu. Then Miss, I will break an orange for you now."

Yang Qi said, "Okay, Mother He."

Although He's mother's hands were rough, they were very flexible. She quickly broke the oranges and removed the outer peels. Yang Qi took one, which had a thin and sweet skin. It was indeed a good orange. Yang Qi put the rest in He's mother's hands and said, "He's mother, you can try some too. Put the rest away. I'll go to my second aunt's place tomorrow and give her some to try."

Mother He was very touched when she took the oranges handed to her by Yang Qi. The oranges were sweet, and her heart was even sweeter.

After eating the oranges, Mother Fan said outside the house: "Miss, you can set the table for dinner."

Yang Qi and He's mother cleaned the house and looked at the dinner on the table, steamed fish, braised pork ribs, kelp, and a cup of soy milk, and were very satisfied.

While eating, Jing Shan came in from outside the courtyard and stood at the door of the house without saying anything. Yang Qi saw that the news he asked Jing Shan to find out should have a result. The people around the old lady knew more about the degree than Xiao Tao and Xiao Ju around her, and knew how to weigh the importance of things. They would not interrupt the meal or conversation when there was nothing urgent.
