Not long after Ye Yuning returned from the Qin Residence, she received the news that the young miss of the Qin family and the seventh young master of the Jiang family were going to be married. The Qin family's reputation in Yin Zhou was quite high, so many people went to congratulate them, and the Ye family was no exception.

When Lady Wen heard that Ye Yuning and Qin Du'er's relationship was close, she deliberately took out a few good things from her private room as a congratulatory gift. Ye Yuning was happy for Qin Du'er too, hoping that she wouldn't be like how she was in her previous life.

In the Fragrant Garden, in Ye Yuning's room, there was an additional painting on the western wall. Ye Yuning couldn't help but laugh every time she looked up at the painting.

Ever since he had visited the Qin Manor, Ye Yuning and Qin Du'er became even closer, and the letters they sent over became more frequent. The madame was also happy to be on good terms with the Qin family and was very supportive of their relationship.

On this day, Ye Yuning was busy embroidering a birthday present to Lady Wen in the pavilion, when she walked in quickly, "Miss, this is a letter from Miss Qin."

Ye Yuning put down her needle and thread and received the letter. When she opened it, a piece of paper fell out, "This is? An invitation for the poetry meet? "

Ye Yuning read ten lines of letters before looking at the paper again. On the note, she wrote a few words, inviting Ye Yuning to join the Linglang Poetry Society in five days.

"Isn't Sister Qin being too enthusiastic? It's not like I don't know how to compose poems, why would I go to a poetry meet! " Ye Yuning laughed bitterly.

Qin Du'er's letter said that every fall, all the thousands of gold in Yin Zhou would gather together for a poetry gathering. This time, she specifically asked for an invitation from him, agreeing to go on that day.

had heard of the Linglang Poetry Society before. Last year, when Ye Yuhuan was invited, she was extremely excited, making new clothes and jewellery. She was determined to compete with the other girls. As for the outcome, Ye Yuning was not clear.

"Miss, this invitation seems to be even better than the one Sixth Miss got last year." Fei Xiu whispered at the side.

Ye Yuning was startled, she lowered her eyes and sized up the flower paper in her hand.

The stationery was only two inches wide and three inches long. The faint yellow paper was dotted with pink and purple orchids. It was beautiful and elegant and exuded a faint fragrance.

The invitations to Linglang Poetry Society were divided into two categories, one was a plum blossom letter and the other was an orchid letter. Plum blossom note is more common, can only invite people to go, but orchid note can bring one more.

The Ye Family started out as a merchant. In the eyes of those young masters and mistresses, they reeked of copper and had always disdained to interact with them. Last year, when Ye Yuhuan obtained a Plum Blossom Note, she was so happy that she did not know her directions.

Ye Yuning turned the flowers over and over again, and could not help but guess what method Qin Du'er used to get them to send him an orchid note.

"Miss, this matter can't be hidden from the other people in the mansion. This servant is worried that the old lady will ask the young miss to bring the other young miss of the house. " Fei Xiu said again.

Ye Yuning raised her eyebrows. She knew these sisters the best. In terms of food and clothing, she was the best, but in terms of talent, she was far from being as good as the others.

In the entire Ye's Mansion, only Ye Yuhuan had slightly accomplished something in the area of zither, chess, calligraphy and painting.

Ye Yuning didn't really like this either, but in her previous life, she had stayed in the Ye's Mansion for a few years, and when she was free, she could only play the zither, read books, and play chess. Her zither skills were average, her chess skills were the best, but she really didn't know how to use poetry.

Just as expected, on the second day, Ye Yuning was called to Pingjing garden by the old lady. Once Ye Yuning entered the room, she saw that the second house and the third wife's sisters were all there.

It seemed that these people couldn't wait to get the news.

"Greetings to Grandmother." Ye Yuning lowered her head and bowed, concealing the ridicule on her face.

"Oh Yu Ning, I heard that you received an invitation from the Linglong Poetry Club yesterday?" The madame went straight to the point.

Ye Yuning nodded her head: "It was Sister Qin who asked it for me."

The old lady's face revealed a look of joy, "That Linglong Poetry Meet is a rare gathering in Yin Zhou City every year, and it's most suitable for young ladies like you to head there. I heard it was an orchid slip? Have you decided who to take with you? "

Ye Yuning did not reply. Instead, she raised her head and looked around at everyone.

, who was in the third wife, pursed his lips. It was obvious that he did not care much about Ye Yuning being treated with such importance. Ye Yuying, on the other hand, had a light smile on her face as she walked over to Ye Yuning.

"Third Sister is indeed worthy of being in the Li Family for ten years. Her mastery of the poem must be extremely high. Ye Yuying said while flattering her.

If Ye Yuning was really a thirteen year old girl, she would naturally be extremely pleased, but she was actually a twenty-something year old girl. Adding to the things that happened in her previous life, she was extremely cautious towards Ye Yuying.

"Fifth sister is too kind, how can I compose poems or draw pictures? However, they only sent out this invitation because Big Sister Qin was on good terms with me. " Ye Yuning smiled decently, not losing out in the slightest.

Not long after, Ye Yuhuan from the fourth house arrived, followed by Ye Yuning's concubine sister, Ye Yuling. The two were the same age, only slightly more than a month apart from the time they were born.

The moment Ye Yuhuan saw Ye Yuning, she snorted lightly and raised her head to walk past her. Ye Yuling paused, and then bent down and bent her knee towards Ye Yuning, "Third Sister."

Ye Yuning nodded her head in greeting, her expression calm. Towards this little sister, Ye Yuning did not have a good impression of her.

Ye Yuling was the one who came out, less than a year after she had entered the Ye's Mansion. Normally, the two wouldn't talk much when they met, and they might even be inferior to the other sisters in the room.

Ye Yuning also never covered up her displeasure with Ye Yuling.

"I heard that Third Sister also received the Linglang Poetry Society's invitation?" Ye Yuhuan paid his respects to the old lady, and turned to look at Ye Yuning with her brows raised, in her eyes showing that she did not believe her.

Ye Yuning did not say anything. She knew that Ye Yuhuan had not received the Linglang Poetry Society's invitation card this year, and knew that she had it.

"Alright, you decide on the candidate, Yu Ning. Grandmother will not interfere." The madame made her decision and waved her hand for everyone to leave.

In the eyes of the madame, it was fine as long as it was someone from the Ye family. As for who it was, she didn't care. Ye Yuning was clear on this point, she also knew that she had no way to refute him.

He secretly clenched his fists, but the smile on Ye Yuning's face became even brighter, he bowed to the Old Granny and walked out. As soon as she stepped out of the room, several people followed her.

"Third Sister, I have a few new pieces of jewelry, can you help me take a look?"

"What good jewelry do you have? No matter how good it is, could it compare to Third Sister's item? "

"What do you mean?"

Seeing that the few of them were about to argue, Ye Yuning did not say a word.

"Alright, stop arguing, it's Third Sister's decision to not bring anyone else along. Grandma said it already, if you keep making noise, Grandmother will punish you to stay grounded."

Once Ye Yuchu said that, the rest immediately became quiet, and looked at Ye Yuning. Ye Yuning was extremely annoyed: "I'll be going back first, don't bother me if you have nothing to do."

With that, Ye Yuning turned and left without even turning her head back.
