The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

"The old lady asked the second and third young ladies to go into the house and wait." The person who came out to deliver the news was Mama Rong, the old lady's confidant.

Mother Rong came out to report in person. Yang Qi knew that she was benefiting from Yang Lan. If Yang Lan was not around, she didn't know when she would be able to wait. Yang Qi had no respect for the old lady. No matter in the past life or this life, the old lady had never spent time on her, nor had she made plans for her, leaving her to fend for herself.

In his previous life, Yang Qi thought that he could win the old lady's favor and satisfaction by giving away his "magic medicine" and not caring about the old lady calling away the only doctor who treated her. However, a person who has no use value and does not know how to maintain a long-term relationship with the old lady is ultimately a nobody, a person who can be abandoned at any time.

After hearing what Mother Rong said, Yang Lan entered the house first and sat next to the old lady's chair. Yang Qi followed behind. Sandalwood was always burning in the old lady's house, and even the furniture in the house was made of rosewood.

Yang Qi sat at the top of Yang Lan's side. All the female members of the family had come. Except for the old lady, the second aunt was the most respected, followed by Yang Lan, and then Yang Qi. Now Yang Lan sat at the side of the old lady, so it was okay for him to sit at the top.

As soon as she sat down, Yang Qi heard the maid from the courtyard come in and report: "Aunt Yin and the Fifth Miss are here, please let Madam Rong know."

Mother Rong entered the inner room and soon received a response from the old lady. She leaned over and said to the maid beside her: "Let Aunt Yin and Miss Five come in."

The one who pulled up the light green pearl flower curtain was a woman dressed in navy blue, less than 30 years old, with only a jade hairpin in her hair. Behind her followed a woman dressed in lotus pink clothes, with thin eyebrows and big eyes, who was obviously a beauty at first glance. They were none other than the concubine of Duke Song Hongwen, the Duke of Song - Aunt Yin, and her daughter, the fifth daughter of the Duke of Song, Song Yanghe.

Aunt Yin was born pretty, but she always dressed plainly and was a quiet person who didn't cause trouble. Her daughter Song Yanghe was very similar to her, always gentle and never overstepping the line. Yanglan, Yangqi and Yanghe were all people who didn't like to argue, so there were no dirty things between sisters in the Songguo Mansion.

However, Song Yanghe, who had always been quiet, became the legal wife of Prince An after she came of age in her previous life. Not to mention Yang Qi, she was even more senior than Yang Lan's husband, the Fifth Prince. Her methods were shocking. However, the good times did not last long. If one's status was not high enough, it was easy to fall. Yanghe died of illness less than half a year after marrying into the palace.

You know, Aunt Yin has taken good care of Yang He, and Yang He has never had any serious illness since she was a child.

"Hello, second sister. Hello, third sister." Yang Qi looked at Yang He, who was lost in thought. But Yang He was still young, only 3 years old. She did not notice anything unusual about Yang Qi and just greeted the two sisters whom she had not seen for a long time.

Yang Lan smiled and nodded at Yang He, and Yang Qi did the same. In this new life, Yang Qi was sure that it would be the right thing to follow Yang Lan in terms of interpersonal relationships.

"Hello, Second Miss, Hello, Third Miss." Aunt Yin timidly greeted the two ladies. In this life, Yang Qi dared not underestimate this timid and cowardly Aunt Yin. He didn't know how much effort and pushback Aunt Yin had put in behind the scenes for Yang He's subsequent marriage into the palace.

After the old lady finished washing up, she looked at the four people sitting in the room. She was extremely happy that Yang Lan was able to recover this time. When she looked at Yang Qi, she frowned. She didn't like Gu Shi, and she didn't like the third girl born by Gu Shi, so she never got close to them. This time, the third girl got smallpox, and for Yang Lan's sake, she had to take the doctor who treated her away, but she didn't expect that the girl was so lucky that she could survive.

"Ahem," the old lady pretended to cough, which attracted the attention of everyone in the room for a moment. Then she helped Mother Rong into the main room. When the old lady sat down, everyone in the room hurriedly stood up and saluted the old lady, saying in unison: "Hello, old lady."

The old lady ignored the people in the room and took Yang Lan's hand, pretending to pull Yang Lan to sit down: "Lan'er, I know you are a thoughtful child, but you are just getting better now, don't get tired."

Hearing her grandmother's words, Yang Lan's eyes immediately filled with tears. She held the old lady's hand tightly and said softly, "Grandma, thank you for your love and care." Yang Qi was on the same side of Yang Lan and couldn't see Yang Lan's expression clearly, but just looking at Yang Lan's back, one could tell what pity meant.

The old lady's different treatment of Yang Lan and Yang Qi created a different atmosphere in the upper room. Even the maids were silently observing the Third Miss out of the corner of their eyes. However, Yang Qi was very comfortable and didn't seem to notice anyone's strangeness.

The old lady patted Yang Lan's hand gently, turned her head and said to the room: "Due to some reasons, we have skipped the morning and evening visits recently, and the sisters haven't gathered together for a long time."

The old lady said this, but she changed her tone and suddenly said to Yang Qi: "How is the third girl now?"

Hearing the old lady calling her name, Yang Qi stood up again, bowed to the old lady, and said, "Thank you grandma for your care. My granddaughter is much better now." Although Yang Qi stood up and bowed, the expression on her face did not change.

The old lady had been observing the third girl since Yang Qi came into the house. She had calmed down after the illness. The old lady thought that according to Yang Qi's temperament, she would fight or cry a lot after the doctor was sent away during her illness. But now, after the smallpox, Yang Qi has become more sunny and no longer as gloomy as before. This change made the old lady feel a little uneasy. Yang Qi's behavior was completely beyond her expectations. Could it be a variable in the family?

The old lady brushed off the non-existent dust on her body, and then continued, "The third girl contracted smallpox this time because of the poor service by those around her. Jingshan, Madam Fan, you should follow the third girl from now on." The old lady meant to arrange her people in Yang Qi's yard.

Jing Shan was thin, and Nanny Fan had some flesh on her body. After hearing what the old lady said, the two of them immediately walked to Yang Qi's side and bowed. Seeing the two of them move so quickly, Yang Qi knew that this matter today was irresistible. He had to be careful about many things in his new life, and he couldn't let the people sent by his grandmother see any flaws.

After waiting for the two to finish their greetings, Yang Qi immediately stood up and performed the third greeting of the day to the old lady, saying, "Thank you grandma for your love and for giving my mother and maidservants to me. I will treat them well in the future."

After saying "hmm", the old lady did not continue the conversation. She had been worried about Yang Lan's condition recently, and she had not had a good rest. After chatting for a few sentences, she lost her energy and asked everyone to leave.
