Rebirth of the Firstborn Daughter: Life is like a Dream

Shen Rouruo did not take Wei Bingyan's words to heart. She had long passed the marriageable age and it was impossible for her to be a princess. Even if she was willing, the royal family did not necessarily want her to be a daughter-in-law.

There was no one else in the corner pavilion except the three of them. Wei Bingyan pulled Shen Rouruo to sit down, "Sister Shen is so beautiful and charming. Whoever marries you will be blessed."

"Maybe the prince will be fascinated by you when he looks at you later." Ye Ruzi agreed with a smile.

"You two are not allowed to make fun of me anymore." Shen Rouruo glared at them and pretended to be furious. At her age, it was not easy to marry a young and strong man, but if she was betrothed to a mature and down-to-earth man... as a co-wife, she would still be happy with it.

Just at this moment, a mocking and ruthless voice came from outside the quaint corner pavilion, "Uh, isn't that Wei Bingyan? How come she is here today?"

Wei Bingyan and the others looked in the direction of the voice and saw four young ladies holding fresh and holy lotus flowers in their hands. They looked to be between thirteen and fourteen years old. After handing the lotus flowers to the maids, they walked towards the corner pavilion together.

"Wei Bingyan, I didn't expect it was really you. How come you are here?" The one who opened her mouth was a young lady with a long face and a slightly larger nose. She was Mrs. Tang's daughter, named Tang Yurong.

"You can be here, why can't I be here?" Wei Bingyan asked with a smile. She didn't have a particularly deep friendship with these people, but she also knew that they liked to laugh at others, especially themselves. Now that the rumors outside were that she was a villain, they must be gloating.

Zhu Xuelin, who was standing near Tang Yurong, laughed out loud, "If I were you, I would hide at home and not dare to see anyone. Don't you know what your reputation is now?"

Shen Rouruo had heard rumors about Wei Bingyan before, so she was naturally 100% convinced that it was not true. However, she did not recognize the beautifully dressed ladies around her, and with her own status, she probably did not have the qualifications to speak. For a moment, she hesitated.

Wei Bingyan actually turned her head slowly and looked at the clear sky. "The weather is good today. If I don't go out for a walk, wouldn't it be a shame to this good weather?"

"I heard from others that not only do you cruelly bully your sister at home, but you also beat them up like a storm if someone says something bad about you?" asked another young lady with her chin raised and a bit aggressive.

"Huh? What do you mean by this?" Wei Bingyan asked softly.

"Don't deny it. You hit Yurong's cousin." Zhu Xuelin shouted.

Wei Bingyan's eyes turned slightly, and she looked directly at Tang Yurong with a smile, "So Chu Xueying is your cousin."

Tang Yurong asked angrily, "Do you admit that you hit her?"

"I'm wondering if you've been asking for trouble by meddling in other people's business too much. If Bingyan is a bad girl, what about you? Which one of you doesn't bully others by taking advantage of your power? Which one of you dares to say that you haven't oppressed or bullied your illegitimate brother and sister at home? Then who is Chu Xueying?

No one can compare to her in terms of reputation, and you are fighting for her. As expected, birds of a feather flock together, and people are divided into groups. This saying is not wrong!" Ye Ruzi stood up and looked at them with contempt. She and Bingyan happened to meet those people in other places before, and they both found each other annoying.

Today, they thought they had found Bingyan's weak spot, so how could she let them go so easily?

"I think you are birds of a feather flock together." Tang Yurong shouted. "Ye Ruzi, who do you think you are? How dare you talk to us? Don't forget that your mother was just a concubine. Don't think that you are really a legitimate child of the Ye family."

"What you said is wrong. Her mother is so awesome that she could go from being an aunt to becoming the second wife. It must have taken some tricks." The mocking voices came out of Tang Yurong and the others.

Ye Ruzi's mother was indeed just a concubine before this. Mrs. Ye and Old Man Ye were childhood sweethearts. If Mrs. Ye, who has passed away, had not planned to marry her to Old Man Ye, Ye Ruzi's mother would not have become a concubine.

But even though Mrs. Ye was just a concubine in the family before, she was very much loved by my father's in-laws. On the contrary, this former Mrs. Ye was extremely cruel and almost killed Ye Ruzi's mother.

This happened a few years ago. Many people in Beijing knew that Mrs. Ye was the real head of the Ye family. No one would ever mention this matter. Unexpectedly, today Tang Yurong and a few other women who had no depth of mind would ridicule her in public.

Ye Ruzi's face turned red with anger, and she didn't know how to refute it fiercely. After all, this was the truth.

clap clap!

Wei Bingyan suddenly clapped her hands on the table and stood up facing Tang Yurong. Over the past year, she had been practicing boxing closely with Aunt Yin, and her body had grown taller. She stood upright in front of Tang Yurong and the others, and she actually had an air of superiority.

Tang Yurong was scared to death, "You...what do you want to do?"

"So what if I'm a bad girl? What does it have to do with you if I cruelly bully or beat someone? Since you know that I'm not someone you can easily mess with, you still dare to chatter in front of me. Do you want to try out how bad a bad girl like me is?" Wei Bingyan looked at them coldly, her eyes were stern and cold, and there was no warm smile on her face.

"You...you dare?" Zhu Xuelin and others retreated a foot and shouted in fear.

Wei Bingyan raised her lips with a gloomy smile, "Want to try your luck?" She slowly stretched out a finger, hooked Tang Yurong's flying collar, and lifted it up easily, "Do you have enough capital to ridicule Mrs. Ye? Do you dare to say what you just said again in front of your parents?"

Ye Ruzi is the biological daughter of the current Lord Sikong. Ye Sikong treats her as a treasure. Who would dare to say to her face that she has a bad background?

“Wei Bingyan, you…you are going too far. You don’t look like a lady from a wealthy family at all.” Zhu Xuelin and two other people huddled aside, looking at Tang Yurong with pity.

"Didn't you say I was a villain? A villain who oppresses and bullies others, and still cares about whether I look like a lady from a wealthy family?" Wei Bingyan threw away Tang Yurong's flying collar with a look of disgust, "Get lost."

So what if I was a lady from a noble family? So what if I was virtuous? If I was a young lady who was constrained by various standards and behaved cautiously, fearing that I would be blamed for making a mistake, would I not be oppressed and bullied? Would fate favor me more?

In her previous life, she was a role model in the capital. She was a truly noble lady from a famous family. Not only was she good at playing the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but her manners were also beyond doubt. But what was the final result?

So what if she was a bad girl? If she really cared so much about her reputation, and cared so much about whether she looked like a daughter of a real aristocratic family, how could she not have restrained herself in Jinyun City at that time and slapped Chu Xueying in front of everyone?

She had already thought that the matter would sooner or later be reported to the capital, so she was not worried.

Watching Tang Yurong and the other three escaping from the quaint corner pavilion with pale faces, Ye Ruzi looked directly at Wei Bingyan with concern, "Why are you degrading your own reputation like that? They will definitely spread it everywhere."

Wei Bingyan smiled nonchalantly and said, "Just let them talk."

"You have really changed a lot in this year. I almost couldn't recognize you." Ye Ruzi said with a smile.

"Everyone has to protect themselves and their relatives." Wei Bingyan glanced at Shen Rouruo and spoke softly.

……

Wei Bingyan and Ye Ruzi, who were busy talking, did not notice that, beside a shady and comfortable stone chair outside the quaint corner pavilion, there was a woman in bright red clothes who had seen everything that had just happened.

"The lady in green is very nice, I like her." The young lady in red raised her charming and unruly face high and looked at Wei Bingyan with amusement.

Originally, she thought that these people were just vulgarly bickering and ridiculing each other and praising themselves, but she didn't expect that Wei Bingyan was actually a person with a pure heart.

"Miss, that is the young lady from the Wei family." The maid behind her replied.

The woman in red nodded. "She is much better than these young ladies who only know how to flatter and curry favor with others."

"Your lady must have particularly liked the action she just took to pull Tang Yurong up." The maid who knew her master well said with a smile.

"I'd like her even more if she threw Tang Yurong out." The woman in red snorted, "Let's go, my aunt must be getting impatient waiting."

On the other side, there were also several people who noticed this situation.

"I guess this is the young lady from the Wei family who will be your fiancée." The Sixth Prince, who was wearing a dark blue gown embroidered with dark patterns and a magnificent white marble silk belt, asked the people nearby intently.

Li Yunze, who was wearing a dark blue satin gown, covered his forehead with his head in pain and sighed helplessly, "It must be her. As expected, she is not a gentle woman."

"Prince Li, congratulations on getting such a fierce daughter-in-law." The Sixth Prince smiled with his domineering face. They could not hear the conversation between the women in the corner pavilion, but just by looking at their movements, they could tell which one was more fierce.

"Bah, my junior sister is not willing to marry you, and you still hate her." Guan Hualang, who had been enjoying watching Wei Bingyan oppress and bully others, heard the conversation between two people nearby and immediately shouted unhappily.

"What?" Li Yunze was surprised. "She is the interesting little sister of you and Brother Li?"

Guan Hualang raised his belly proudly, "Needless to say, my little sister is good at everything, what's so great about you, a coward."

The Sixth Prince also felt strange, "I have never heard Brother Li talk about her to you."

"Why should I tell you about my junior sister?" Guan Hualang said unhappily, "My junior sister said that she doesn't want to be betrothed to you. One of you doesn't want to marry and the other doesn't want to marry. Let's just forget about this marriage. This way you won't hate my junior sister for not being docile enough. Your maidservant is the most docile. Go find your maidservant."

"Brother Guan...that's not what I meant." Li Yunze forced a smile that was uglier than crying. Facing such a young hero who didn't play by the rules, he really felt powerless.

Guan Hualang ignored them and walked straight towards Wei Bingyan and the others in the corner pavilion.

The Sixth Prince raised his eyebrows and said softly, "You originally hoped that Guan Hualang would help you get married, but now you don't have to bother."

"The prince is about to come, let's go and pick him up!" Li Yunze rubbed his forehead, thinking that it would be best if this marriage was just forgotten. He didn't want to marry Wei Zhong's daughter, because Wei Zhong was the prince's man.

He... He looked at the calm and steady Sixth Prince beside him, and sighed quietly in his heart.

"Li Yuyan will be out the day after tomorrow, so spend less time with him from now on." The Sixth Prince suddenly said.

Li Yunze's eyes turned slightly cold, "Humph."
