Raising a concubine under her nose, the reborn mistress marries the prince

"Mom, I...I was so excited last night that I tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep, so I didn't sleep well this morning."

Ye Huan lowered his head timidly, twisting the corners of his clothes unconsciously with his hands, looking away, not daring to look directly into Mrs. Ye's sharp and slightly reproachful eyes.

Seeing this, Mrs. Ye could only shake her head helplessly.

He sighed and said, "Look at yourself, with those big dark circles under your eyes. How can you look like a lady from a noble family? The young lady from the Duke's Mansion is also going to attend the banquet today. You are so unkempt and sloppy. Aren't you going to be outshined by her?"

When Ye Huan heard this, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

She said hurriedly, "Mom, it's all my fault. I know I was wrong. Please don't get angry. I'll go back and get dressed right away."

Before he finished speaking, he had already hurried back to his room like a gust of wind.

Oh, what if I really get outdone? Absolutely not!

Especially, he couldn't let Jiang Hai see him in such a miserable state, as that would be very embarrassing.

Thinking of this, Ye Huan urged the maids to tidy up for her quickly.

Not long after, when Ye Huan appeared in front of Mrs. Ye again, he seemed like a completely different person.

She was wearing a light pink brocade dress, the texture of which was soft and smooth, as gorgeous and dazzling as the clouds in the sky.

The hem of the skirt is carefully embroidered with lifelike flowers and dancing butterflies. The exquisite patterns are eye-catching.

Her hair was neatly combed, and the smooth hair fell on her shoulders like a waterfall, dotted with a few crystal clear pearls.

A golden hairpin swayed slightly as she walked, flashing a charming light.

"Well, that's more like it." Mrs. Ye looked her daughter up and down, finally revealing a satisfied smile and nodding slightly.

Then he took Ye Huan's hand and said, "Okay, let's go quickly, don't miss the time."

In this way, the mother and daughter got on the gorgeous carriage and headed towards the general's mansion.

Mrs. Ye doesn't care how Ye Huan dresses on weekdays.

Today is different. Mrs. Jiang has to receive two daughters-in-law, so there will naturally be invisible comparisons.

Although my daughter has some shortcomings in other aspects, her appearance is no worse than others.

But then again, Mrs. Ye felt that her daughter was good in every way.

When their carriage slowly stopped in front of the tall and solemn vermilion gate of the general's mansion, they saw a row of respectful servants in uniform already standing neatly at the door.

They all stood with their hands hanging down, with earnest and humble smiles on their faces, quietly waiting for the arrival of the distinguished guests.

Ye Huan wanted to jump off the carriage as lightly as she did before, but just as she was about to take action, she keenly noticed the sharp look from her mother.

This look was like an invisible shackle that instantly curbed her impulse.

Therefore, Ye Huan could only obediently, with the careful support of the maid beside him, slowly and elegantly stepped down from the carriage in a dignified and graceful manner.

Just at this moment, a magnificently decorated carriage from the Duke's Mansion slowly drove up to them.

The car door opened slightly, and the first thing that came into view was a fresh and moving green figure - it turned out to be Zheng Yao. Today, she was wearing an emerald green dress, just like a bud that had just bloomed in spring, fresh and tender.

Ye Huan's eyes were immediately attracted to her. She couldn't help but brighten up and secretly admired in her heart: "Miss Zheng is really beautiful!"

Immediately afterwards, Mrs. Zheng also got off the carriage in a graceful manner.

As soon as she got off the car, her eyes met with Mrs. Ye not far away.

Upon seeing this, Mrs. Ye quickly nodded slightly to Mrs. Zheng as a greeting.

However, Mrs. Zheng had a cold expression on her face and acted as if she didn't want anyone to approach her.

Faced with such a situation, Mrs. Ye didn't know how to respond for a moment and could only stand there in embarrassment.

……

Just when the atmosphere was becoming a little subtle, a hearty laugh suddenly rang out.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Mrs. Jiang, smiling and walking briskly towards them warmly.

She walked over quickly and said loudly, "Oh, my two relatives, please come and see us! You have worked hard on the journey."

Zheng Yao and Ye Huan hurried forward and saluted Mrs. Jiang.

Mrs. Jiang smiled from ear to ear and nodded repeatedly, praising them: "Good, good, good, they are all well-behaved and sensible children!"

Zheng Yao looked up at Mrs. Jiang in front of him, only to see that she had kind eyes and a friendly look. The tension in her heart suddenly relaxed.

Ye Huan was all smiles, and he held Mrs. Jiang's arm affectionately, saying in a soft voice, "Aunt! Huan'er misses you so much!"

However, Mrs. Zheng, who was standing aside, secretly felt disdain in her heart, thinking that this little girl was so sweet-talking that she had already made her future mother-in-law so happy that she was dizzy before she even got married into the family.

Madam Jiang smiled and gently touched Ye Huan's head, saying softly: "Huan'er, you haven't come to the General's Mansion to visit your aunt for a long time. You must stay and chat with your aunt today to relieve your boredom."

Ye Huan nodded obediently and said coquettishly: "Of course, Huan'er will definitely accompany Auntie well."

At this time, Mrs. Jiang turned her gaze to Zheng Yao again, reached out and held her little hand, carefully looked at this gentle and lovely girl in front of her, and exclaimed sincerely: "Oh, look at this child, she is really adorable!"

Hearing Mrs. Jiang's praise, Zheng Yao couldn't help but feel a little shy. She lowered her head slightly and said softly, "Aunt, you are too kind."

Ye Huan, who had been standing by, couldn't hold back his joy and interrupted, "Sister Zheng! You are so beautiful, so beautiful that I feel pity for you!"

Mrs. Ye also looked at Zheng Yao with admiration at this time, and Zheng Yao responded generously: "Sister is also naturally beautiful, as beautiful as a fairy!"

Ye Huan was delighted to hear the compliment and took Zheng Yao's other hand, "We will be a family from now on. I love you."

As he spoke, Ye Huan's eyes inadvertently met Mrs. Zheng's.

At this moment, Ye Huan clearly saw that Mrs. Zheng's eyes were full of disdain and contempt.

She met Madam Zheng's gaze again, but this time Madam Zheng looked calm.

Mrs. Ye also saw it, and suddenly felt a nameless fire rising from the bottom of her heart.

I thought to myself: Humph! It's just a Duke's Mansion, what's so great about it! How dare you look down on my daughter like this!

But seeing that both children looked innocent, Mrs. Ye let it go.

It is a blessing for a daughter to have a sister-in-law who is easy to get along with.

Mrs. Jiang looked at her two children and her heart was filled with happiness.
