"Since it was bestowed by the late Emperor, it just so happens that the current Emperor bestowed the marriage. Third Sister wearing this dress can be said to bring out the best in each other. When the time comes, it will definitely amaze everyone in the capital. "Ye Zhen said with a smile, a trace of joy quickly flashed through her eyes. She could imagine what kind of expression Wang Shi and Ye Ying would have when Ye Li wore such a dress to get married.
Ye Li nodded and handed the unfinished wedding dress to Qing Luan who was serving beside her. She smiled at Ye Zhen and said, "You are busy talking about me. I haven't seen you for a long time. How is Eldest Sister?"
Ye Zhen narrowed her eyes and the smile on her face faded a little. She said, "What's wrong with me? Isn't it just living like this?"
Ye Li had heard of the reputation of Marquis Nan's heir. Unfortunately, these things were not something she could control. Moreover, her relationship with Ye Zhen was not close enough for her to ask about her private matters. She could only say, "No matter what, you are the most important. If you don't care about yourself, who can care about you? "Ye Zhen was startled. She looked at Ye Li and said," Third Sister is right. These years … Third Sister has not had it easy. In the future … With the Xu family around, Third Sister will not be more sad than at home. "Ye Li smiled faintly. She stood up and said," Has Eldest Sister gone to see Fourth Sister? "
Ye Zhen shook her head and said, "I just went to greet Grandmother. Fourth Sister is busy choosing the new head ornaments. I did not want to disturb her."
Ye Li smiled and said, "Then let's go together. Qing Xia, take out the set of Phoenix Sunrise Head Ornaments and send it to Fourth Sister. "
Qing Shuang said, "Young Miss, isn't that the Old Madame's gift to you?" And it was the most precious one. Fourth Sister wanted it before but the Old Madame did not give it to her. It would be a waste to give it to her now.
Ye Li waved her hand and said, "I can't use that. If Fourth Sister likes it, then give it to her." Ye Li could only stay away from that set of graceful and precious ornaments. She had no doubt that if she really wore the whole set, her neck would hurt. In fact, Ye Ying would not really wear it. After all, she had always maintained a delicate and refined image. She was just angry that Old Madam Ye gave it to her and not her. Ye Zhen carefully looked at the indifferent smile on Ye Li's face and sighed softly, "Among us sisters, Third Sister's temperament is still the best."
Ye Li smiled and said, "It's not that I have a good temperament. In any case, we don't need to spend our entire lives together. Even if we can't, we only have a month left. It's so boring to fight over such trivial matters. "
Ye Zhen lowered her head and smiled. "Fourth Sister is right."
When Ye Li and Ye Zhen arrived at Ye Ying's courtyard, Ye Ying and Wang Shi were choosing a dazzling array of ornaments on the table. Ye Ying was a little surprised to see the two of them walking in hand in hand, but she quickly covered it up and got up to greet them with a smile. "Big Sister, Third Sister, why are you here together?" Ye Zhen smiled and said, "I heard that Fourth Sister was busy, so I went to Third Sister's place first. It just so happens that Third Sister is coming over, so let's go together. "Ye Ying smiled faintly and said," Big Sister, what are you talking about? What can Ying 'er be busy with? Big Sister, Third Sister, please take a seat. "
Ye Li followed behind the two of them and raised her eyebrows with interest. This was the first time she saw Ye Ying talking to her sisters without any arrogance. Especially when they were sisters born from concubines that she had always looked down on. It seemed that the old madame's methods were not to be underestimated. She could actually change Ye Ying so much in such a short time. Facing Ye Ying's warm and affectionate greeting, Ye Zhen was also a little uncomfortable. She looked at Ye Ying a few times before letting her pull her in and greeting Wang Shi, "Greetings, Mother."
"Madame." Ye Li bowed lightly.
Wang Shi looked at Ye Li's indifferent and calm appearance and secretly gritted her teeth. Although she had been promoted as the legal wife for many years, Ye Li had never opened her mouth to teach her mother. Although she did not want Xu's daughter to call her mother, Ye Li was the only legitimate daughter in the Ye Residence. This kind of feeling always made Wang Shi feel that her title as the mistress of the household was not legitimate. She had once whispered pillow talk to the old master, but she did not know why, no matter how hard she tried, the old master had never insisted on this matter. He also never had the intention to force Ye Li to change the way she addressed her.
"Mother, Ying 'er wants to talk to Big Sister and Third Sister. If you have something to do, you can go ahead." Ye Ying pulled Wang Shi's hand and acted coquettishly. Wang Shi looked at her beautiful daughter dotingly and proudly, and her mood immediately improved. No matter what, she still won in the end, didn't she? Her daughter was a concubine in the palace, and the other was Prince Li's legal wife. Her son would be the master of the Ye family in the future. However, Lady Xu had died early. Her biological daughter could only marry a crippled prince, and her adopted daughter could only be a concubine. "Alright, you two sisters should have a good chat. There are still some things to take care of. Mother will go out first. " The three sisters stood up and sent Wang Shi out. Ye Ying immediately pulled Ye Zhen and Ye Li to sit down. She looked at them apologetically and said, "Big Sister, Third Sister, Ying 'er was not sensible in the past and neglected both of you. I hope that big sister will be magnanimous and not blame Ying 'er. " Hearing this, Ye Zhen looked at Ye Li doubtfully. She smiled and said, "Fourth Sister, you must be joking. We are sisters, so what's there to blame? Big Sister still needs to rely on you in the future. "
Ye Ying smiled and said, "Grandmother is right. We are sisters, so naturally, we need to help each other. Big Sister, don't say that you need to rely on us. "
Ye Li sat at the side and listened to the two chatting. She had a rough idea of what Old Madam Ye and Ye Ying were talking about. But she was still surprised that Ye Ying would listen to Old Madam Ye's teachings. Of course, she believed in another saying, "A leopard cannot change its spots." Even if Ye Ying really listened to Old Madam Ye's teachings, it was impossible for her personality to change in such a short time. It seemed that … something had happened these days that she was not aware of.
Late at night, the Minister's Manor, which should have been quiet, was still brightly lit for tomorrow's wedding. Even the maidservants in Ye Li's Qing Yi Pavilion were excited. After all, the marriage of the Fourth Miss of the Qing Yi Pavilion to the Li Palace was a joyous occasion. Everyone in the Qing Yi Pavilion would be rewarded handsomely. Ye Li dismissed the servants beside her. As usual, she picked up the book that she had not finished reading and sat under the lamp to read. From time to time, she would pick up the pen and write. After an unknown amount of time, the noise that came from afar seemed to gradually fade away. Ye Li raised her hand and rubbed her eyebrows tiredly. Her body, which was leaning against the chair, slowly leaned to one side. Her calm eyes were tinged with sleepiness. Ye Li blinked her eyes. Finally, she could not resist the sleepiness and slowly closed her eyes. The cold room was silent. Only the occasional crackling of the lamp could be heard.
After a long time, a black shadow flashed out of Qing Yi Pavilion. It seemed that the person was very familiar with the layout of the Manor. He easily avoided the guards in the Manor, jumped over the wall of the backyard and disappeared into the dark night. In Qing Yi Pavilion, there was no trace of the owner in the cold and elegant boudoir. Only an open book was left on the ground beside the desk.
