After her rebirth, she became the sweetheart of the sickly uncle.

Su Qingcheng's voice was so low that only Ye Tantai could hear it.

He resisted the urge to declare his sovereignty in front of everyone, telling himself in his heart that now was not the time to be angry.

"Okay." He turned around and left, returning to his previous position.

When Bei Lizhong saw Ye Tantai coming back in embarrassment, he suppressed a smile and consoled him: "Brother Ye Sheng has fallen in love with that maid? How about this? I made the decision and asked Jana to give it to you."

Ye Tantai became more and more determined. Bei Lizhong had just deliberately held him back from going to Su Qingcheng, so that Nangong Xiu and Su Qingcheng could be alone.

The heirs of these four major families are not as simple as they seem...

What is their purpose?

Does Nangong Xiu also know Su Qingcheng's true identity?

Ye Tantai's eyes casually moved between the people, trying to see something.

There was a lot of excitement inside the ancestral hall.

Suddenly there was a woman outside the Nangong family's ancestral hall, right behind the four people.

Because of her special status, the servants guarding the gate of the Nangong family did not stop her.

This person is Xining Jingtian’s sweetheart, Yao Zhirou.

She originally wanted to walk in directly. All the people present were members of the four major families, and talk to Xining Jingtian in front of these people.

In this way, everyone will know about her extraordinary relationship with Xining Jingtian.

The guard guarding outside the ancestral hall stopped her: "Miss, this is the ancestral hall of the Nangong family. Ordinary people are not allowed to enter."

"I'm looking for the young master from the Xining family. Just tell him that it's Miss Yao who's looking for him." Yao Zhirou said softly, looking like a lotus that emerged from the mud but remained unstained.

"No, a family meeting of the four major families is currently being held inside. People outside the four major families are really not allowed in." The guard said with an iron face.

"I am the second young lady of the Yao family, and I am the childhood sweetheart of Young Master Xining. All you need to do is inform him that if I don't go in, just let him come out." Yao Zhirou said persistently, looking a little embarrassed.

She secretly clenched her fists, her heart filled with anger.

"No, Miss Yao, only people from the four major families can enter. Unless it is the empress's will, no one can enter."

At this moment, Yao Zhirou felt a sense of humiliation. Although her Yao family was not a well-known family, her father was only a ninth-grade official.

She must have good looks and talents, but she cannot be looked down upon by others in Beiyuan, just because she is not from one of the four major families.

Obviously his father and brother also contributed their lives to Beiyuan, why didn't they get the rewards they deserve...

Yao Zhirou's eyes became fierce, not like her usual self at all.

"Then I'll just wait here."

She took a deep breath and straightened her back.

She has her own ambitions and cannot be defeated by this little setback.

It is now late autumn, and the weather has gradually become colder. Yao Zhirou wore thin clothes today in order to see Xining Sedum.

A slight gust of wind blew over her, and she shivered unconsciously.

She thought of a plan, felt the direction of the wind outlet, and walked quietly towards the direction of the wind outlet.

The bleak autumn wind blew on her snow-white skin, causing pain like a knife cut, which was exactly what she wanted.

Inside the ancestral hall, Xining Jingtian, who had no idea about all this, looked at the subtle atmosphere between Ye Tantai and Bei Lizhong.

If it goes on for a long time, it will hurt the harmony, so he reconciled: "Seeing that the family meeting is over, let's go have a few drinks together? I heard that Zuiyunjian has served some new wines."

Ye Tantai subconsciously wanted to refuse. In his subconscious, he immediately wanted to go back home and be with Su Qingcheng.

But when he thought of Su Qingcheng's attitude just now, he became angry and didn't want to see her.

He hummed coldly.

Bei Lizhong was naturally willing. He said enthusiastically, "Okay, let's go to Zuiyunjian. I'll treat you."

Dong Yunshuo shook his head and refused: "I still have something to do, so I won't go with a few of you. You can ask Brother Nangong to come with us."

"But brother Nangong, shouldn't he prepare to go to Qingchi Mountain?" Xining Jingtian said.

His original intention was to ease the atmosphere between Ye Tantai and Bei Lizhong, and it didn't matter whether Nangong Xiu was there or not.

Having said this, Nangong Xiu came over.

"What are you talking about? It's over. I'll let the palace's carriage take you home."

Bei Lizhong said: "We are talking about whether we should go to Zuiyunjian for a few drinks. If Brother Dongyun doesn't go, will you go?"

"Go, of course you go. How can you do something like drinking and drinking without me?"

Nangong Xiu's eyes drifted towards Ye Tantai intentionally or unintentionally, as if with a bit of provocation.

Ye Tantai, as a man, was of course aware of his gaze. He stared back without hesitation and looked at Nangong Xiudao: "I wonder how young Master Nangong drinks?"

Nangong Xiu raised a finger and said, "Guess."

Ye Tantai sneered: "One cup, or ten cups?"

Bei Lizhong laughed loudly: "He can drink all the time. Nangong Xiu is the best drinker here."

Ye Tantai said: "In that case, let's go and compare notes. I'm really curious about how much Brother Nangong can drink."

When he thought of what the evil man in front of him and Su Qingcheng had said, he wished he could tie Nangong Xiu up and question him.

Dong Yunshuo left first, and the other four people walked out of the Nangong family's ancestral hall together.

Yao Zhirou, who was standing in the wind and feeling cold, saw the crowd coming out and immediately took off another piece of his clothes.

She moved closer to the front and found a position where she could see it as soon as she came out.

When the four of them walked out, Xining Jingtian saw Yao Zhirou, who was shivering from the cold and turned pale.

He looked anxious: "Zhirou, why are you here? What's going on?"

Xining Jingtian's fingers accidentally touched Yao Zhirou's skin, which felt ice cold.

"Ahem, it's okay," Yao Zhirou smiled softly and coughed twice, "It's okay, Brother Jingtian, I saw you guys busy inside, so I didn't go in to disturb you. I thought I'd just wait for you outside. "

"Why don't you let someone go in and let me know? I can come out."

As Xining Jingtian spoke, he took off his clothes and put them on Yao Zhirou, saying distressedly: "Why did you come to me?"

Yao Zhirou took out a book and said, "This is the book you gave me a few days ago. I read some and didn't understand some of them, so I wanted to ask you."

"You are still so studious." Xining Jingtian said softly.

The first time he met Yao Zhirou was at a street vendor selling books. She was concentrating on reading.

The vendor was impatient with her and wanted to drive her away, but Yao Zhirou argued with the vendor, saying that the book was wrong.

Yao Zhirousheng's beauty attracted many onlookers, and the stall owner wanted to do something to her when he saw that she couldn't resist.
