Ye Jinsu frowned and slowed down her breathing, feeling that she had lost control of herself.

Turning his head, Ye Jinxiu said to Little Red, "It's fine."

It wasn't worth it to make a fool of yourself over such a small matter. Furthermore, she didn't come here to join in on the fun. It was more important for her to get down to business. Ye Jinxiu regained her calm and her gaze inadvertently swept across the field.

Everyone was gathered in a circle in the yard, and the fruits and vegetables were served. Now was the time for everyone to have a good time, to have a chat with the people around them, or to raise their glasses and offer a few words of congratulations.

Most of the people here were known to Ye Jinxiu. As she hastily looked over, she was able to roughly understand the situation on the field. For example, this Yu family was probably very favored by the court. The one beside Yu Yao'er, who referred to herself as' elder sister 'and' elder sister ', was as eager as if she was serving her own mother.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see it.

There were also the sons of the princes who were all seated in a pile, all of them raising their goblets heartily. He was clearly not a blood related brother, yet he seemed to be closer than a blood related brother. The number of princes surrounding the Grand Princess was more than enough. There were also a few aristocratic children who were familiar with them.

As for Ye Jinsu's side, they were all descendants from influential families, and they were all old officials of the imperial court. On the surface, it looked happy and harmonious, but he didn't know how water and fire were incompatible behind the scenes.

Ye Jinxiu lowered her head to eat her food. It seemed like the rumors outside weren't wrong. Right now, the inner court was indeed very distinct from the outer court. Looking at the current situation, it was only a banquet, yet there were so many different tables. The situation up ahead was more tense than the rumors said.

He raised his eyes to look at Ning Yunquan. He was in the middle of a conversation with Ning Yunquan, but the corner of his mouth curved into a faint smile. He didn't seem to have noticed Ning Yunquan's expression at all.

Ye Jinxiu frowned and stopped eating with her chopsticks.

Suddenly, the music on the stage stopped. Ye Jinsu raised her head and the musicians left.

It turned out to be the main character of the banquet.

With a cute and mischievous expression, she lifted up the corner of her skirt and ran up onto the stage. Her voice was pleasant to listen to. She looked at Ye Jinsu and said, "I heard that Sister Ye's zither arts are the best in the capital. Today is my birthday, I wonder if I can ask sister to dance with me?"

As expected, Ye Jinsu gently smiled and took the zither from Little Red, "This is my sister's honor."

When Ye Jinsu stood up, she attracted everyone's attention. Everyone had heard of her reputation and could not help but become more interested in her. Some people were discussing her in whispers, and most of them were praising her.

Ye JinRu grabbed her chopsticks tightly. What she hated the most was Ye Jinsu's arrogant appearance.

She was the one who should attract everyone's attention, but Ye Jinsu easily obtained it. What right did she have?!

Glancing at Ye Jingru's ashen face, Ye Jinsu sneered in her heart. She really didn't have that kind of experience and didn't like the feeling of being watched by everyone. Her hands were drenched in cold sweat, but it was worth it for her to make Ye JinRu uncomfortable.

His fingertips lightly caressed the strings of the zither, stirring it in twos and threes. The zither music flowed like flowing water, melodious and clear. At first it was as quiet as the mist in the mountains, then it was as melodious as the wind blowing through the branches of a willow tree, until finally it was as passionate as the river flowing into the sea, and the water dripping into the rocks.

Ye Jinsu slowed down, and so did Yu Yue.

One dance after another, the wind returns to the snow, stopping the clouds from circling the beam.

There was silence on the stage. Everyone was staring at the stage in a daze.

Only Ye Jingru's eyes were red. No matter how she looked at Ye Jinxiu, her gaze was still glaring. Even the applause from all around was so ear-piercing, it had been like this since he was young. As long as there was a place where Ye Jinsu and she appeared at the same time, the limelight would definitely belong to Ye Jinsu!

Under the spotlight of Ye Jinsu! Even the clothes that Ye Jingru meticulously prepared were no longer that attractive. Ye Jinxiu smiled at Little Red and glanced at Ye JinRu.

Her face was livid.

The corner of Ye Jinsu's mouth curled up. Her expression was open and provocative, as if she was saying to Ye JinRu, "If you don't want to accept it, then go up yourself."

When she felt Ye Jinru's widened eyes, Ye Jinsu turned her head. Her movements were very fast, so fast that other than Ye Jinru, no one had seen her appearance. Ye Jingru opened her eyes wide, and the chopsticks in her hand were almost broken. She was so angry that her teeth were itching.

As for Ye Jinsu, she leisurely returned to the stage and quietly sat beside her.

Returning to the stage, Yu Yao'er raised her glass to Ye Jinsu and praised, "I've long heard of my sister's reputation. Seeing that her sister is a natural and unrestrained person, and that she stays at home all day, I can't help but feel envious of her. "

Three points of courtesy, three points of true love, the rest of it was dark and unclear. Ye Jinsu turned around and smiled at her, then raised her glass. The Yu Family and the Ye Family had never had anything to do with each other, so Ye Jinxiu had no intention of getting involved with them. She only indifferently said, "Sister Yu, you must be joking."

Yu Yao'er's voice was somewhat loud.

At least the people around them could hear him clearly. Ye Jingru looked over when she heard that. Ye Jinsu had actually managed to connect with someone from the Yu family so quickly. Ye Jingru clenched her fists tightly, while she was slightly trembling. She shouldn't have let Ye Jinsu come!

If he had known earlier that he was at home, he would have made it so that Ye Jinxiu wouldn't be able to make a trip here!

"Elder sister, your words are wrong. My elder sister is a great scholar in the capital. Other than Sister Yu, there must be many other young masters who are envious of her." Ye Jingru looked at Ye Jinsu and interrupted with a smile. These were words of obvious arrogance, yet he had purposefully emphasized the word 'envy', which was extremely ear-piercing to the ears.

Wasn't this saying that she was unscrupulous?

Ye Jinsu's eyes flashed as she looked at Ye JinRu with a hint of coldness in her eyes.

Laughing lightly, Ye Jinsu looked at Yu Yao'er with a helpless expression and said, "It's just that I've been learning to play the zither for a few years. Those are just rumors outside. Why do I have to be envious of you?" If elder sister says that again, I will die of shame. "

After saying that, Ye Jinxiu sighed.

She only explained a few words to Yu Yao`er, not paying attention to the needle and stick in Ye Jingru's words. It was obvious that she had ignored Ye JinRu. When Ye JinRu saw this, she became even angrier and opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something.

Who knew that Ye Shisan would glare at Ye Jinru from the other side?

Ye Jingru did not dare to speak, and she remained silent.

Everything was reflected in Ye Jinxiu's eyes. She gave it a casual glance, then put down her chopsticks and said to Xiao Hong, "This place is a little stuffy. Come with me."

When he turned around to leave, he even inadvertently glanced at Ye Jingru with ridicule in his eyes.

Little Red followed behind Ye Jinxiu and didn't even take a single breath before she said, "Miss, why did you let Second Miss off so easily? Her words are so unpleasant to hear!"

"Forget it." Ye Jinsu shook her head and said, "Can't you see that outsiders are here? No matter how we fight, it's still a matter of closing our doors and coming to our own house. Don't let the other families just watch and make fun of us. "

Xiao Hong pouted. What she said made sense. However, even though she had been scolded in vain, she still could not take it lying down.

Ye Jinsu touched her head as her eyes lit up. She narrowed her eyes and asked, "Am I the kind of person who would not retaliate if someone bullied me?"

"If I leave, do you think she will follow me?"
