The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

When the day came for Mr. Yang to enter the mansion, Yang Qi specially asked Jing Shan and Mother Fan to help her with her makeup.

The last time we went to General Xu's mansion, Mother Fan showed off her skills. Although Mother Fan's hands were rough and short, she was very flexible when it came to braiding hair. Not to mention the Linhu Courtyard, even in the old lady's upper room, Mother Fan's skill in braiding hair was among the top five.

Mr. Yang is a man who attaches great importance to rules. Today is our first meeting, so I must leave a good impression.

After breakfast and cleaning up, Yang Qi rushed to the upper room. Yesterday afternoon, the old lady had sent a maid to tell the three young ladies to gather in the upper room at 7:00 p.m. Mr. Yang would arrive at the Duke of Song's mansion around 9:00 p.m., and the three young ladies would meet Mr. Yang for the first time in the upper room.

Yang Qi prepared early. When he arrived at the upper room, not only the old lady hadn't gotten up, Yang Lan hadn't packed up yet, and of course, Yang He hadn't arrived either. Standing in the yard, Yang Qi closed his eyes and reviewed the book he had read yesterday, reciting it silently in his mind, trying to remember it word by word.

When Yang Lan walked into the courtyard of the main house, he saw Yang Qi standing there blankly with her eyes closed. He felt something was strange and asked, "Third sister?"

Hearing Yang Lan's voice, Yang Qi opened her eyes and was shocked again when she saw Yang Lan in front of her. Yang Lan was dressed very formally today, wearing 6 sets of clothes. Yang Qi did not hide her surprise and replied, "Hello, second sister!"

Yang Lan noticed the surprise in Yang Qi's eyes and felt helpless. Her grandmother had asked Mother Rong to dress her up early today, saying that she must be fully polite when meeting Mr. Yang for the first time. However, since Yang Qi didn't ask, it was not convenient for her to explain.

Yang Lan stood in front of Yang Qi, waiting quietly in the yard. For a moment, the only sounds in the yard were the footsteps of the maids and servants. Yang He did not get up early today, nor did she dress up specially. Seeing Yang Lan dressed up and Yang Qi paying attention, Yang He thought to herself that it was not good, but now there was no time to change.

The old lady did send someone to say something yesterday, but she was very casual and didn't say to dress up. If Yang Lan and Yang Qi were both wearing casual clothes, it wouldn't be wrong for the three of them to go together. But now I'm so casual, I'm inferior to them when we first met.

Yang He was worried about her emotions being revealed, so she lowered her head quickly, hatred overflowing from her eyes. Even if she knew it in advance, what would it matter? She was not loved by the old lady like Yang Lan, nor was she valued by the second lady like Yang Qi. When her aunt married into the Duke of Song's Mansion, she was penniless.

Yang Lan noticed that there was another person behind him and took the initiative to say, "Fifth sister, you are here."

When Yang He heard this, she took a deep breath, her eyes regained clarity, and she looked up and smiled softly, "Second sister, third sister, you came so early today."

Yang Lan and Yang Qi smiled in response.

After the old lady finished washing up, Mother Rong asked the three young ladies to go into the house and wait.

Soon, Xu came over. This time, Xu was the one who took care of everything for Mr. Yang. This was the first meeting, and Xu would also be responsible for settling Mr. Yang.

Just after 9 o'clock, the maid in the courtyard came in and said, "Mr. Yang has entered the mansion and is going upstairs."

After a while, Mr. Yang walked into the room and bowed to the old lady as a junior.

Mr. Yang was wearing an indigo dress today, which made him look very old. Yang Qi knew that Mr. Yang was only thirty-two years old this year, about the same age as Ms. Xu, but Mr. Yang looked a generation younger than Ms. Xu in this dress.

The old lady smiled at Mr. Yang and said, "Mr. Yang, you have worked hard on the journey. I will have to trouble you more in the future. Lan'er, you take your sisters to pay your respects to Mr. Yang."

After hearing the old lady's words, Yang Lan stood up, took Yang Qi and Yang He, bowed to Mr. Yang, and said, "Greetings, sir."

Mr. Yang had a serious face, which looked a little scary. In the previous life, Yang Qi was frightened by Mr. Yang, and two days later, he claimed to be sick and didn't go to class. In this life, Mr. Yang's deliberate stern face could no longer scare Yang Qi.

Mr. Yang looked at Yang Lan and nodded in his heart. Before coming to the Duke of Song's Mansion, Mr. Yang had carefully learned about Yang Lan, Yang Qi, and Yang He. Yang Lan was indeed impeccable in both manners and appearance. Yang Qi next to him was also qualified, but the youngest Yang He was really not good enough. At such a young age, her eyes were so complicated.

Mr. Yang shook his head and said, "Madam, this fifth young lady is too young. I really can't teach her."

Mr. Yang's words shocked Yang He. She was extremely happy to know that Mr. Yang had come to the mansion. Mr. Yang was well-known in the Tianyuan Dynasty. With the title of Mr. Yang's disciple and Bai Yuxin's junior sister, her status would rise. Yang He stared at Mr. Yang with wide eyes, puzzled, unwilling and angry.

Ms. Yang has met so many people that Yang He's look could not escape her discerning eyes.

The old lady listened to Mr. Yang's words. Yang He was indeed younger, but it was a great honor for her to be able to follow Mr. Yang. She had spent a lot of money to invite Mr. Yang.

Mr. Yang looked at the old lady and continued, "If Miss Five wants to learn from her, I will definitely teach her according to the weakest foundation, and Miss Three will definitely be delayed."

Mr. Yang's words really hit the nail on the head. The old lady quickly said, "We'll talk about the fifth girl when she grows up."

The old lady's words were the final word, and Yang He quickly opened her mouth and said, "Grandma..."

Before she could even open her mouth, Yang He took back the next words under the old lady's gaze. She was panicking in her heart. What should she do? She was eliminated in the first round. This was not fair, this was not fair!

Yang Qi was listening and watching in a strange way. This had never happened in her previous life. After they met, Mr. Yang readily accepted the three sisters. But Yang He had limited qualifications after all. After Yang Qi withdrew, the gap between her and Yang Lan was very large and became more and more obvious. There was no other way, so the old lady let Yang He withdraw.

Even so, Yang He followed Mr. Yang for several months. These months obviously broadened Yang He's horizons a lot, which at least played a role in his subsequent process of climbing up to Prince An's Mansion.

Why did this incident happen in this life? This time, it couldn't be because of me. In fact, it was because of Yang Qi. Yang Qi's solemnity this time made Yang He mistakenly think that the old lady was just targeting him, so he couldn't control his emotions, and Mr. Yang discovered some clues.

Yang Qi didn't say anything, and Yang Lan didn't say anything either. Yang Qi couldn't help but wonder in his heart, why didn't Yang Lan speak up for Yang He?

After solving Yang He's problem, Mr. Yang said to the old lady, "Old lady, you should have known my rules before. I teach students, and I have the final say on how to teach them."

The old lady nodded and said, "Of course, I'll follow your instructions in everything." The fact that Mr. Yang could teach a talented girl like Bai Yuxin shows that he has extraordinary abilities.
