After rebirth, she became the favorite of the powerful minister.

"How could that be possible?" Yuan Ge asked the servants to take away the breakfast and replace it with new tea, then he pulled the man to sit next to him with a grin, "Sister-in-law is just anxious, what time is it now? You also know that the servants in my courtyard are all doing rough work, and they are not as skillful as those around you. I don't ask them to do their work well or quickly, I just hope they don't make mistakes. Where's Jinfeng? Why didn't I see her come with us?"

"That girl caught a cold a few days ago, so I asked her to go back to the Li family to rest, so as not to cause trouble to the whole family, young and old."

"Have you found a doctor yet? I hurt my neck, but it's not serious. I've got a lot of herbs. Just tell me if you need anything."

Yuan Ge was rarely so friendly, and Li Yushuang breathed a sigh of relief and waved her hands, "It's okay, it's just a cold. She has a good body, so she will be fine after a good sleep and sweating. But you, even if the wound is healed, you have to be careful, don't leave scars, it will look ugly."

The two sisters-in-law were really as close as a family, and they seemed to be holding hands and having a long chat. Tong Wanzhen, who was sitting on the side, was suddenly ignored, and she began to feel inexplicably suspicious. "Wen Qian" said that she had received a lot of medicinal herbs, which were obviously given by others when they came to visit. But she only came here this one time, came and left in a hurry, and except for a few bags of things that she even looked down upon, she really had nothing to show for it.

Then he lowered his eyes and acted innocently, "Qianqian, these days... I was being watched by my stepmother, so I couldn't sneak out to see you. You don't blame me, do you? She also withheld my monthly allowance, and life was really hard..."

Li Yushuang was surprised. "Is Madam Tong really so harsh to her daughter? I have heard people talking about it before, but I wondered how she could go to such an extent... Is it true? Oh, in that case, my mother-in-law is still a good person."

She is simple-minded and outspoken.

It is most appropriate to invite her to attend this "flower" viewing banquet today.

So, very soon, the two people who had never met before were chatting enthusiastically about "their own stepmother" and "their own mother-in-law", leaving Yuan Ge with some free time. He only occasionally got up to add some tea to the two people who were inevitably thirsty from the chat.

Not long after, Yu Qingqing came with Zhong Wei. Both of them had prepared generous gifts, saying that they were prepared by their elders. After all, it was the first time they were invited to visit, so they could not lose courtesy.

Tong Wanzhen's face turned pale with anger after hearing these words. She said that she had drunk too much tea and had to go to the bathroom. Yuan Ge greeted Yu Qingqing and the others while looking back for Shiyin. However, there was no servant in the huge yard. He felt unhappy and scolded them, "These lazy guys, it's ok for them to be lazy on weekdays, but why are they so lazy today when we have a distinguished guest? I won't let them off easily when I get back!"

Li Yushuang quickly tried to smooth things over, "It's okay, it's okay. The servants will teach them a lesson later. You go and receive these two girls first. I'll take Miss Tong with me... Don't worry, the courtyards in our mansion are different, but the structure of the house is pretty much the same. I know how to get there."

Yuan Ge's expression looked a little better. "In that case, thank you very much, sister-in-law." Even if Li Yushuang didn't say anything, Yuan Ge would have begged his sister-in-law to go with him.

People who speak their mind should always watch the whole process.

Here, Yu Qingqing watched the people walk away, raised her hand and twisted Yuan Ge, and scolded him with a look of disappointment, "Tell me, why did you invite this woman? Didn't I tell you that this woman had bad intentions and was doing things behind your back? Huh? I thought you were pretty smart, why did you mess with her? Huh? Did she save your life in your previous life or something?"

He bared his teeth and looked ruthless, as if saying, "If you continue to be stubborn, I will kill you," but the strength in his hands had already been quietly weakened, so that he only had a ferocious face but no ferocious means.

Yuan Ge lowered his head and chuckled. He pulled Yu Qingqing and the equally helpless Zhong Wei to sit down. He asked Shiyin to change the tea again, and then he smiled and ordered the tea, "The best Laojunmei, according to the servants at Sanpinju, is all here with me. You can't drink it if you go anywhere else...Try it quickly to calm down. They don't have it."

Yu Qingqing was no fool. She looked at the hot tea in her hand, then at the maid who had just been "lazing around somewhere" and opened her mouth, suddenly realizing, "You are..."

I don't know what this is, but it's obvious that there is no good intention behind it.

So, Miss Yu finally came to a perfect conclusion. She slapped the table, raised her hand to touch Yuan Ge's arm, and coaxed him softly, "Hey, I knew you weren't that stupid, you should have told me earlier! When you sent me an invitation with only a specific time, I thought you would stop me from coming in... If you had told me what you wanted to do earlier, I would have cooperated, right?"

The voice was so low that even Zhong Wei could only hear it vaguely. But she was always open and honest, so she got up with some tea and walked to the plum tree to admire the plum blossoms - the plum blossoms had not yet bloomed, so she admired the plum leaves.

From the lotus pond not far away, a shocking cry for help suddenly rang out, "Someone help! Miss Tong fell into the water!"

Next door, Master Jin, who had already drunk two cups of tea, jumped three feet high, wishing he could just climb over the wall. He was rubbing his hands and heading out, while muttering in disdain, "Song Wenyuan, let's open a door on that wall tomorrow. It's just a wall, but you have to walk so much distance. Isn't it annoying... Chengjin, hurry up!"

"Someone come! Miss Tong fell into the water!"

Yu Qingqing was startled, and saw Yuan Ge slowly put down the teacup in his hand, stood up, straightened his dress, and combed his loose long hair. "Let's go and see what's going on. Don't worry, my lotus pond is very shallow, no one will drown... I have a lot of experience in this." After saying that, he turned around and smiled gently.

Yu Qingqing felt the cold wind cutting like a knife while she was smiling.

"Someone come quickly! Miss Tong fell into the water!"

The servants who had been lazing around just now, like a flock of gulls and herons that were startled, had already gathered around the lotus pond before Yuan Ge arrived. They hurriedly pulled up Tong Wanzhen, who was breathing out more than she was breathing in. She curled up by the lotus pond, hugging her knees and shivering. Her face was pale and her lips were bloodless. It was unclear whether she was frozen or scared.

Li Yushuang was also really frightened. Seeing Yuan Ge rushing over, she waved her hands repeatedly, "I don't know what happened. I took her to relieve herself, but she stopped here and insisted on going to the river. I tried to persuade her not to go to the river, but she insisted on going. Then, she slipped and fell. I tried to pull her up, but I almost fell in too! I was so scared!"
