There is Room For the Poor Daughter

Ye Yueying's hand on the water pavilion calmed the ladies in the garden, gathering in twos and threes, occasionally looking at Ye Yueying sitting alone in the pavilion.

The sisters of the Wang family, who had been ignored at first, began to have a conversation with them at this time, and most of the conversations were about Ye Yueying.

The Wang family sisters finally waited for the opportunity to chat with the ladies of the various families, and they cooperated very strongly. Although they did not know everything and said everything, they were always ready to answer questions, and there were many words that derogated Ye Yueying.

All the girls present were cultivated by the big family. After some inquiries, they quickly found out the situation of Ye Yueying and the Wang family.

The Wang family is a fifth-rank official family, and the Ye family's lintel is not low. Unfortunately, there is only one Ye Yueying left. After understanding this, most of the girls couldn't help but feel contempt.

Especially when the sisters of the Wang family openly slandered their cousins, this behavior is simply outrageous, and it attracts people to look down on the Wang family even more.

The girls with strict family style left the Wang sisters early, and in the end, there were only some people who were not too serious for watching the drama.

"Miss Ye was majestic just now, but it's a pity, I'm afraid she offends people and doesn't even know it."

"Isn't it true, the person who was taught by Miss Ye was the direct daughter of the Minister of War, and that's fine. Among the people who were thrown to the ground by Miss Ye was the seventh girl of the Yan family, who was the first cousin of the princess. ."

"In the end, she is a tiger girl from the general door. She is very courageous, and she dares to hurt people in the princess' mansion."

Hearing this, the faces of the Wang family sisters changed. Not only did they not speak out to defend Ye Yueying, but they hated Ye Yueying in their hearts, thinking that she had caused trouble for the Wang family.

The lady who was talking looked at the ugly faces of the Wang family sisters, and couldn't help but covered her mouth and chuckled, and then said sympathetically, "The princess will definitely be told what happened just now. Miss Ye bullied the girls of the Yan family, and the two of you are afraid that they will be punished. It might be implicated.”

Miss Wang and Miss Wang suddenly felt tight in their hearts: "Maybe what?"

The girl smiled again: "Maybe, the two of you may be invited out of the Princess Mansion with Miss Ye." After speaking, she looked at the Wang sisters with pity.

"Although Princess Chun'an is not often in the capital, those who are driven out of the house by her may not be welcomed by other families in the future."

Hearing this, Miss Wang couldn't bear it any longer, and looked at Ye Yueying in the pavilion angrily: "Ye Yueying is like this, she never cares about the lives of others, she acts her own way, she is a stubborn broom star."

When the surrounding girls heard this, the teasing on their faces deepened.

Miss Wang was still a little brainy, so she pulled her sister and motioned her to stop talking.

There are girls who want to fill two more fires. It is best to let the Wang family sisters and Ye Yueying make trouble. Unfortunately, before there is time to act, Xiao Keyan brought a large group of people over.

"Meet the Princess, Princess Wanfu Jinan."

Seeing Xiao Keyan's arrival, the ladies in the garden changed their faces, and put on elegant and decent smiles one after another, and then saluted with a thousand blessings.

Ye Yueying also walked out of the pavilion and stood outside the pavilion and saluted.

Xiao Keyan smiled and looked at the ladies: "You girls don't need to be too polite, today is just a gathering of our juniors, everyone can relax."

"Thank you princess!"

All the ladies stood up one after another.

Xiao Keyan smiled and asked the maid behind him to put the materials for making lanterns on the stone table in the garden: "This year's Lantern Festival, His Royal Highness Taisun will have fun with the people, and grant permission to set up lantern poles at the palace gate. The lanterns selected from various places will be hung on the top for people to watch."

"I begged Taisun for a long time at the New Year's Eve banquet, and finally got him to nod and agree to grant me the right to manage a lamp position."

"I've heard that the girls are beautiful and skillful. Today, don't hide your clumsiness. After the lanterns are finished, I will let people choose the most beautiful ones. During the Lantern Festival, they will hang high on the lamppost and follow me. Enjoy the lanterns together on the palace gate and city walls."

As soon as these words came out, all the girls were excited.

Enjoy the lanterns with the princess, and you will be able to show your face in front of the grandson and everyone at that time.

"The maids have brought the materials for making lanterns, please feel free to do so."

Xiao Keyan did not distribute the materials for the lanterns, but let the girls distribute them freely. Soon, the girls with fast hands and feet would finish dividing up the good materials, and those with slow hands and feet could only pick up some bad ones.

For activities like this that do not stipulate the amount of materials, some people are afraid that their materials are not enough, and some people do not want to have too many competitors.

For example, some girls who are embarrassed to fight for their face, and for example, some girls whose families are weak and lack of confidence do not dare to compete with those who are powerful; another example, the marginalized sisters of the Wang family, and Ye Yueying.

Xiao Keyan looked at everything in the garden, and felt a little bit in her heart. Mother was right, the world keeps climbing, just to have more autonomy when choosing or being chosen.

If she didn't have a pair of powerful parents, no powerful brothers and sisters, maybe she was one of the girls present today, and she had to fight for it.

"Seventh girl, the princess is here. The orphan girl pushed you to the ground just now. Go tell the princess and she will definitely help you out."

The Yan family is the natal family of Princess Weiyuan. If Miss Yan Qi didn't go to get it, someone took the initiative to give her the best lamp-making materials.

Yan Qi glanced at Ye Yueying in the direction of the pavilion. Seeing that Miss Wu from the former five army governor's mansion actually gave her the materials for making lamps, her face sank immediately, and she got up to go to Xiao Keyan.

Xiao Keyan also noticed the situation on Ye Yueying's side, and the corner of her mouth tickled.

The world is not short of stupid people like the Wang sisters, but it is never short of smart people.

Xiao Keyan swept Yan Qi walking towards her and frowned. Most of the cousins ​​in the Yan family are very discerning, and these seven cousins ​​are a little hard to say.

The mother told her in private that the seventh cousin had inherited some bad habits from her grandfather's family, the Han family.

Xiao Keyan knew why she was looking for her, and without giving her a chance to speak, she nodded at her with a smile, then passed her directly and walked towards the pavilion.

Seeing Xiao Keyan leaving Yan Qi and walking towards Ye Yueying, the ladies present were all surprised.

Feeling the gazes of everyone, Yan Qi was shy and angry. If she was at Yan's house, she would definitely make trouble, but she knew in her heart that this was the princess' mansion. To help her, she had to sit back at the stone table with a blushing face and make a lantern.

"I've seen the princess!"

"Miss Ye, don't be too polite."

In the pavilion, Xiao Keyan and Ye Yueying greeted each other.

Taking a closer look at a quiet distance, Xiao Keyan found that her elder brother's vision was really good, this girl Ye belongs to the kind of person who is cool from a distance and amiable from a close view: "Miss Ye, please take a seat, I, but I wanted to see you for a long time. See you, unfortunately, no one will let you!"

Saying that, she winked at Ye Yueying playfully: "I'm afraid I will bully you."

Ye Yueying was a little stunned by Xiao Keyan's joking appearance, but for a moment, her ears turned red again.

Seeing that the future sister-in-law is so nonchalant, Xiao Keyan laughed with joy.

This made Ye Yueying and Miss Wu on the side stare blankly.

Both of them were thinking, Princess Chun'an is so lively!

When the other girls in the garden saw it, they were a little confused, but they also figured out one thing, that Princess Chun'an seemed to like Ye Yueying very much.

When the Wang sisters saw it, they were overjoyed and walked to the pavilion.

Unfortunately, it was stopped by two maids.

Xiao Keyan couldn't really care about those girls who didn't get the materials. No, another maid brought another batch of materials.

"Two girls, there is still space over there, go over there and make lanterns."

Without waiting for the two to object, the maids enthusiastically took them elsewhere.

Facing the servants of the Princess Mansion, the Wang family sisters felt guilty, and finally sat at a table with the other two ladies who also didn't get the materials.

The two do not know how to make lanterns, and they are not in the mood to do so. From time to time, they look up at Ye Yueying, who is chatting and laughing with Princess Chun'an in the pavilion. She secretly hates this Ye Yueying, who has made friends with the princess herself, and does not know how to call them. .

In the pavilion, Xiao Keyan chatted about various anecdotes from time to time, asking Ye Yueying a few words from time to time.

The questions asked may seem unimportant, but they all point directly to a person's character and attitude toward the world.

Ye Yueying realized it after being asked two questions, she didn't hide it, and answered all her heart.

In this way, the two of them chat more and more easily.

Miss Wu, who was watching the whole process, looked at Ye Yueying again and again, but thanks to the big brother letting him take care of Miss Ye, she was of no use.

Before I knew it, noon arrived, and Xiao Keyan took the ladies to the hall for dinner.

Seeing that Ye Yueying was arranged to sit at the table with Princess Chun'an, everyone's expressions fluctuated again.

The public purpose of today's banquet is to make lanterns, but everyone knows what the private purpose is.

Could it be that the palace has taken a fancy to this orphan girl?

At the dinner table, Xiao Keyan looked at Yan Qi with a smile: "Seven cousins, Miss Ye is my friend. Let's get to know each other."

After all, they are relatives, and their uncles and aunts are also good to them. She doesn't want her sister-in-law and seventh cousin to have any irreconcilable conflicts in the future.

Yan Qi looked at Ye Yueying with a somewhat dissatisfied expression.

She knew that it was impossible for a girl from the Yan family to marry the palace, but she just liked the big cousin. If the big cousin liked those girls who were not as good as her, it would be fine, but he liked an orphan girl, which made her How is she convinced?

Ye Yueying understood that Xiao Keyan wanted to resolve the conflict between them, she was silent for a while, and took the initiative to pick up the fruit wine in front of her: "Miss Yan Qi, she was on the waterfront just now, she forfeited her strength and offended her."

Hearing this, Xiao Keyan's eyes showed a smile, but she just said that she had not held back her strength, but there was no intention of doing anything wrong in her words. In the future, my sister-in-law will be very rigid.

Yan Qi also heard what Ye Yueying meant, and didn't intend to pay attention to it, but Xiao Keyan looked at him with a smile, and could only hold up the wine glass reluctantly.

Xiao Keyan smiled: "After drinking this glass of wine, today's misunderstanding is over. Well, let's eat quickly, the lanterns are not ready yet."

After lunch, the girls came to the garden again to continue making lanterns.

I had been chatting with Xiao Keyan in the morning, Ye Yueying didn't do it at all, and she also didn't know how to make lanterns. Fortunately, Wu Yutang's sister was there.

"Thank you, Miss Wu!"

Ye Yueying has a strong hands-on ability, and under the guidance of Miss Wu, she made a lotus lantern before the end.

Miss Wu smiled and shook her head: "You are my brother's friend, that's my friend, there is no need to be polite among friends. Quickly, write your name down, wait a moment, and those selected will be able to participate in the Lantern Festival during the Lantern Festival. ."

Soon, a maid came to collect the lanterns.

At this time, a girl asked: "Who will choose the lanterns?"

Xiao Keyan smiled and said, "This is my first banquet in the capital. My father and mother are worried and have been watching in the main courtyard. It's up to them to choose, do you think it's okay?"

The ladies immediately became agitated.

Sure enough, today's banquet at the Princess Mansion was for the little prince and the little prince.

There was more expectation on the faces of the ladies: "It's our honor that the prince and princess are willing to appreciate your face!"

A lantern was sent to the main courtyard, and soon, another one was sent back.

The ones sent back were not selected, and the sisters of the Wang family were full of depression with their own lanterns.

It didn't take long for Ye Yueying to see the nanny who had given the New Year's gift to Wang's house last time.

Ye Yueying was curious about Gu Yu's identity, and asked the girl Wu next to her in a low voice: "Miss Wu, who is this nanny?"

Miss Wu: "Mother Gu Yu is the confidant next to the princess."

Hearing this, Ye Yueying's heart skipped a beat, she was actually the princess' confidant!

Gu Yu smiled and looked at the ladies and said, "The lord and princess have chosen five lanterns, made by Miss Liu, Miss Fei, Miss Cao, Miss Wu, and Miss Ye. The lanterns are temporarily placed in the Princess Palace, and they will be hung on the palace gate lights for the Lantern Festival. on the pillar."

Ye Yueying's face was full of surprise, but she didn't expect her to be chosen!

Miss Wu, who knew the inside story, looked calm, blinked at Ye Yueying, and whispered jokingly: "I knew that Sister Ye, yours would definitely be selected."

Isn't the reason for this lantern-making festival held by the Princess' Mansion today to see the girl in front of you?

Her lantern was chosen, it seems that the prince and princess have recognized her.

Ye Yueying also had some guesses in her heart, and she felt a little embarrassed when Miss Wu said that.

At this moment, Gu Yu spoke again, smiling and looking at the winning Ye Yueying and the others: "Wang Ye and Wang Fei want to meet a few ingenious girls, girls, go to the main courtyard with the servants."

Hearing this, Ye Yueying's heart thumped.

"Go!"

Miss Wu took Ye Yueying and quickly followed the others, and followed Gu Yu to the main courtyard.

Looking at the five people who left, the ladies who were not selected were full of envy.

The faces of the Wang family sisters were drawn long.

Miss Wang Er whispered to Miss Wang, "Sister, Ye Yueying is afraid that the palace is really interested."

Miss Wang suppressed the jealousy in her heart and whispered: "This is a good thing, Ye Yueying really climbed the palace, it's only good for our family, not bad."

Miss Wang Er was still in a panic: "But when I think that Ye Yueying will overwhelm us in the future, I feel very uncomfortable!"

After the selection of lanterns, Xiao Keyan asked the maid to serve refreshments. After using the refreshments, all the ladies saw that there was nothing to do, so they got up and said goodbye one after another.
