Was Lu Jing jealous of her?
"Fourth sister, what do you mean by this?" Ye Zhen looked at her without annoyance or anger, her face full of confusion and ignorance.
Fourth Miss Lu despised Ye Zhen from the bottom of her heart. When she learned that Mister Shan was willing to teach her, she almost smashed the vase in the room. She had gone to Mister Shan in person and asked him to be her teacher. As a result, Mister Shan said that her aptitude was average and she was not worthy to be his student.
Her aptitude was average, but was Lu Yaoyao's aptitude good?
Uncontrollable jealousy and unwillingness had filled her heart. Except for Lu Wushuang, she was already the most favored girl in the Lu family. But now Lu Yaoyao came and easily took away Old Madam Lu's care for her. This was the difference between the legitimate wife and the concubine.
"Everyone in the capital knows that Mister Shan's students are all talented. If others know that you are Mister Shan's student at the flower viewing party …" Fourth Miss Lu covered her mouth and chuckled, as if thinking of something funny. "Don't get stage fright."
Ye Zhen pretended not to see the smile on Fourth Miss Lu's face. "Thank you for reminding me. With Mister Shan's protection, I don't think I will get stage fright."
Others didn't think there was anything wrong with these words, but in the ears of Fourth Miss Lu, it was simply showing off.
Fourth Miss Lu's face turned blue with anger. She glared at Ye Zhen fiercely, turned her head and refused to talk to her again.
"Third sister, you may not have heard of Mister Shan's reputation in the border town. Mister Shan is a famous talented woman. In so many years, he has only accepted two students, one is Princess Qin and the other is Princess Zhao Yang. Unfortunately, Princess Qin's life is short, and Princess Zhao Yang has become a widow …"
She said it as if being Mister Shan's student was not a blessing.
Ye Zhen smiled and said nothing, but in her heart, she thought of Princess Zhao Yang.
Her relationship with Zhao Yang wasn't very good. There was a feeling that if there was a Yu, why would there be a Liang? However, they wouldn't do anything to hurt each other. If someone tried to sow discord between them, they wouldn't believe it either.
They both knew that the other disdained to do such a thing.
"Second sister, are you afraid that I will also become a widow?" Ye Zhen looked at Lu Er with a smile.
Lu Er laughed twice. "Third sister, don't mind me, I just said it casually."
Ye Zhen smiled and shook her head, "Second sister is also concerned about me, how can I mind?"
She didn't know if she would be able to meet Zhao Yang at the flower viewing party. Currently, she had no one to help her. Although she had been reborn, she was completely useless.
Who knows that she is Ye Zhen? Who can help her?
Second Young Lady Lu smiled awkwardly, and the carriage immediately quieted down.
Ye Zhen looked at the scenery outside through the curtain. She had grown up here since she was a child and was familiar with every place in the capital. But now, everywhere she looked was strange and distant.
She didn't know how long it took, but the carriage had already driven out of the city gate. Ye Zhen wanted to put down the curtain, but she saw a mountain in the distance that looked a little strange. She frowned and looked over.
"That mountain is called Death Soul Mountain. Doesn't it sound scary? In fact, it's almost the same as a mass grave. A few days ago, the Ye family was beheaded and more than a hundred people were buried there. "Seeing Ye Zhen staring at the bare hilltop, Second Miss Lu explained to her with a smile.
Ye Zhen's expression changed, and her grip on the curtain tightened. She struggled to find her voice. "The Ye family … are all dead?"
Second Young Lady Lu laughed. "Who knows? Eldest brother knows about this. We have only heard a little about it."
"The Ye family has done many evil things. They deserve to die." Fourth Young Lady Lu snorted coldly. She had met the girls of the Ye family before. Their arrogant attitude of looking down on others was disgusting. Even if they were all dead, who would really sympathize with them?
Ye Zhen looked sharply at Fourth Young Lady Lu, her eyes filled with cold frost. "What has the Ye family done to make you feel that so many people deserve to die? With a heart like yours, I don't think it will be good in the future. "
Fourth Young Lady Lu almost jumped up. "Lu Yaoyao, what do you mean by this?"
"That's what I mean." Ye Zhen said coldly. After being reborn for so long, this was the first time she showed her true emotions.
"You …" Fourth Young Lady Lu was about to lose her temper, but she was stopped by Second Young Lady Lu.
"We have arrived at the Hundred Flower Garden." Second Young Lady Lu said hurriedly and persuaded Fourth Young Lady Lu. "Fourth Sister, Yao Yao doesn't know what the Ye family has done to our Lu family. It's reasonable for her to say that."
Ye Zhen was too lazy to say anything more to them. She was afraid that she would do something irreparable. The moment the carriage stopped, she lifted the curtain and walked out.
Old Madam Lu and Mister Dan also got off. Ye Zhen walked towards them, trying hard to suppress the anger in her heart and make herself appear calm and composed.
The blue sky in the autumn season was spotless, crystal and transparent. Walking into the Hundred Flower Garden, one could see the artificial lake in the middle at a glance. White clouds were reflected on the clear surface of the lake. Fish swam back and forth in the green lake, adding color to the floating clouds. It was extraordinarily gorgeous.
"Old Madam Lu, greetings to you. Everyone has been waiting for you since your arrival." After passing the artificial lake, Ye Zhen saw a woman in gorgeous clothes come over and salute Old Madam Lu cordially.
Ye Zhen glanced at the woman, and a shallow smile floated on the corner of her mouth. The woman's surname was Chen, and she was the wife of Assistant Minister Chen of the Ministry of Rites. She used to curry favor with the Ye family and despised the Lu family, but today, she fawned on Old Madam Lu.
"This … Mister Dan?" Madam Chen originally thought that Mister Dan beside Old Madam Lu was one of the wives of the Lu family. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Mister Dan.
Mister Dan nodded lightly, "Madam Chen."
Madam Chen was taken aback and couldn't react. Old Madam Lu smiled and said, "Now, Mister Dan is the teacher of our third young lady. Yao Yao, greets Madam Chen."
Ye Zhen lowered her eyebrows and took two steps forward, saluting Madam Chen. "Greetings to Madam Chen."
Lu Er and Lu Si stood behind, looking at Ye Zhen with jealousy in their eyes.
Obviously, Old Madam Lu intended to let everyone know the third young lady of the Lu family today. Today, Lu San was the protagonist among them.
But why? Why did such a wild girl make the old madam value her so much? Was it because she was Mister Dan's student?
Madam Chen had only seen Ye Zhen before and had only a slight impression of her. Therefore, when she saw Lu Yaoyao's appearance, she only felt that she was familiar and did not think of Ye Zhen.
