"Li 'er understands. Please don't worry, grandmother." Ye Li stood up and responded.
Wang Shi's face was a little pale. It was the responsibility of the mistress of the house to maintain relationships. If it was in Ye Li's personal name, it would be fine. But in the name of the Ye family, she asked Ye Li to do it. It was clearly embarrassing her as the mistress of the house. Old Madame Ye did not give her a chance to speak. She frowned and said, "If you have time, you might as well take care of Ying 'er's dowry. Don't forget that there are not many days left before the wedding."
"Yes." Wang Shi responded timidly.
"Master, Old Madame …"
Old Madame Ye's nanny hurried in. She deliberately looked at Ye Li before walking to Old Madame Ye and said, "Old Madame, Young Master Xu and the second, third, fourth, and fifth young masters of the Xu family are here to visit."
"What?!" Minister Ye was so shocked that he jumped out of his chair. The young masters of the Xu family came to visit at the same time. Didn't that mean that his troublesome brother-in-law had also arrived in the capital? Of course, with Master Xu's pride, he would never personally visit the Ye family who killed his only baby sister.
Old Madame Ye reacted quickly and said, "Quick, invite the Young Masters Xu in."
Ye Li was also a little surprised. She did not know that her uncle and cousin had arrived in the capital and did not go to greet them. This made Ye Li feel a little guilty. When her uncle was still in the capital, he doted on her the most. After not seeing him for so many years, even Ye Li did not know what to do.
"Grandmother, Li 'er will go and greet them personally."
Old Madame Ye nodded and said, "Go. Ying 'er, Shan' er, Lin 'er, go too. "
She ignored Ye Lin and Ye Shan's surprise and Ye Ying's dissatisfaction. She also did not care what Old Madame Ye was thinking. Ye Li got up and walked out quickly. Ye Lin and Ye Shan behind her also quickly followed. Only Ye Ying was left looking at Minister Ye unwillingly. She was the future Princess Li. Why should she go and greet Ye Li's cousin?
"Ying 'er!" Minister Ye had a headache. This daughter of his was really spoiled too much. Seeing Minister Ye's expression, Ye Ying knew that her father was really angry. She had to bite her lips and turn around to follow Ye Li and others.
"Before Ying 'er's wedding, let her come to Rongle Hall every day to serve me, her grandmother." Old Madame Ye looked at Wang Shi and said coldly.
"This … daughter-in-law still has many things to tell Ying 'er, I'm afraid …" Wang Shi said uneasily.
"You teach? Look at what you've taught them all these years. "Old Madam Ye said coldly." They don't know when to advance or retreat. Just because she had some talent and looks, she didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth. These are nothing in the boudoir, but once you get married, you will have to take charge of a manor. Can those poems, songs, dances, and schemes that you taught be enough to support the Li Palace's reputation? "
Minister Ye nodded and said, "Mother is right. Zhaoyi niangniang was personally taught by her mother. It is Ying 'er's fortune that Mother is able to give her some advice. " Seeing that her husband had agreed without hesitation with an irrefutable expression, Wang Shi could only helplessly endure it. Recently, those little bitches have been restless, especially that concubine mother Zhao. She didn't have time to care about Ying 'er's matters.
At the gate of the Ye Mansion, two handsome youths came down from the carriage. The youth in front glanced at the housekeeper waiting at the gate of the Ye Mansion and a trace of dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes. He clicked his tongue and smiled at the people in the carriage. "It seems that Big Brother's face is not enough. No one came to pick us up." The youth who came down behind him and was two years older glanced at him and said, "Did Big Brother let you come to show off?" The youth didn't care and made a face at his brother. "Who cares! I'm here to see Sister Li. "
"Xu Qingyan, pay attention to your etiquette." Someone in the carriage said lightly.
Xu Qingyan blinked at his brother and complained in a low voice, "Second Brother is fiercer than Big Brother."
Xu Qingbai rolled his eyes at him. If you know he's fierce, why do you keep provoking him?
The head steward of the Ye residence looked awkwardly at the two Young Masters of the Xu family who were talking to each other. These two Young Masters obviously treated his invitation to the Young Masters as a passing wind and had no intention of entering, not to mention the Young Masters who were still sitting in the carriage and had not even seen them. Just as he was hesitating whether or not to go forward and invite them, Ye Li's excited voice came from the gate behind him. "Is it Fourth Cousin and Fifth Brother?"
Xu Qingbai turned to look at the girl in green who came out quickly. His gaze changed from a bit of a stranger to a warm smile when Ye Li came closer. "Li 'er, I'm Fourth Brother. Do you remember me? " Ye Li nodded slightly. Xu Qingbai was the closest to her among the five children of the Xu family. He was only one year older than her. So he was the closest to her when they were young. When she lived in the Xu family, the two of them also studied and played together. "Fourth Brother …"
"Hehe, Big Sister Li 'er, I'm Qingyan." Xu Qingyan didn't want to be left behind and came forward.
Ye Li looked at the handsome youth in front of her and smiled. "Fifth Brother has grown up. You really look like Eldest Aunt. That year when we left the capital, Fifth Brother was still a child. "Xu Qingyan's handsome face fell." Big Sister Li bullied me. "
"Big Brother, Second Brother and Cousin … Third Brother?"
The curtain of the carriage behind them was lifted and Xu Qingfeng jumped down from the carriage. "Fortunately, Li 'er still remembers Third Brother. Otherwise, Third Brother would be jealous."
Two young men came out of the carriage. They were the Xu family's eldest son, known as the number one scholar in the world, Xu Qingchen, and the Xu family's second son, Xu Qingze.
"Li 'er." Xu Qingchen was dressed in white. When he saw Ye Li, his handsome face was dyed with a faint smile. Compared to Xu Qingchen's handsome and elegant appearance, the nineteen year old Xu Qingze had a more serious and solemn expression. He gave off a cold and distant feeling, but Ye Li could also feel the warmth in his eyes when he looked at her.
"Big Brother, Second Brother." Ye Li softly called out. She didn't know why, but her eyes were somewhat sour. A strange feeling of not knowing what to do surrounded Ye Li, who had always thought that she could handle it with ease. Even though there were many sisters in the Ye family, Ye Li had always felt that she was alone. But suddenly, there were so many brothers by her side. It was as if she had returned to the time when her mother hadn't passed away and her uncle and grandfather hadn't left the capital. It was as if she had returned to her previous life. Although there was no end to the fighting, it still made people feel warm.
Xu Qingchen raised his hand and stroked the hair by Ye Li's ear. He softly sighed and said, "Li 'er has suffered these years?"
Ye Li repeatedly shook her head. Her throat seemed to be choked by something and she couldn't say a word.
"Third Sister, it's rude to let these cousins stand at the door. It's better to quickly invite them in. "Ye Ying stepped forward and gently said to Ye Li. Then she gracefully bowed to Xu Qingchen. "Ying 'er greets Cousin Qingchen." Xu Qingfeng rubbed his nose and stood behind his Second Brother. He had come to the Ye family many times, but the arrogant Ye Ying had never been so polite to him.
