The book has no strength, the female supporting role just wants to survive

Chapter 175 The Dispute between Su and Meng

Back to an incense stick of time ago, after Ye Ruzhen left the private room, she went straight to the lobby with her maid.

In fact, small matters like adding more tea can usually be done by just calling the waiter at the door, but Ye Ruzhen just wanted to stay away from the disputes, so she found such an excuse to go out for a walk.

"Ting He, let's wait outside until they finish fighting before going in. If you hear me yelling outside after I go in, come in and take me away."

Ting He nodded repeatedly, as if he was listening to something serious.

"When the time comes, just say that there's no clothes to hang out at home and we'll just go away first. I get scared when I think of Xiao Mingrui's icy face. I don't know why, but I feel that his aura is very scary."

"Miss, are you talking about the fourth son of the Xiao family? I heard that the fourth son of the Xiao family is not very famous in the Imperial College. Everyone seems to know the second son of the Xiao family better."

Ting He seemed to be deep in thought; she indeed had no impression of Xiao Mingrui in her mind.

The eldest son of the Xiao family is a martial arts champion and has already been married. The second son of the Xiao family is unparalleled in talent. The third son of the Xiao family is idle all day long and is often compared with the second son of the Xiao family. As for the fourth son of the Xiao family, although there is nothing wrong with him, he doesn't seem to have any outstanding qualities either.

"Then you have seen Xiao Mingrui. Every time I see his eyes, they are like a whirlpool that wants to suck people in."

Ye Ruzhen got goosebumps just thinking about it, but she didn't notice the two people coming towards her.

"Hey, isn't this my good sister? Why are you so lonely?"

Ye Ruzhen glanced at the person who came and found it was her silly sister Ye Ruxuan, and next to her was the pretentious Leng Qingyan.

"Tinghe, do you hear a mosquito buzzing somewhere? It's so noisy."

Ye Ruzhen fanned the air in front of her, as if she didn't see Ye Ruxuan.

"Ye Ruzhen, I'm talking to you! Don't pretend you can't hear me!"

Ye Ruxuan was a little furious. What she hated most was the way Ye Ruzhen looked down on her.

"Oh, so she's my concubine sister~"

Ye Ruzhen emphasized the word "bastard sister" because she knew that Ye Ruxuan would get angry every time she mentioned this matter. As expected, when Ye Ruxuan heard the word "bastard sister", her expression became very ugly.

"You are only left with the identity of a legitimate child."

Ye Ruzhen said nonchalantly,

"Ye Ruxuan, don't think that just because your father spoils you, you can speak freely outside. Even if my mother is not favored by my father, she is still the principal wife, and no matter how favored Mrs. Mo is, she is only a concubine."

Ye Ruzhen didn't want to use the theory of legitimate and illegitimate children to attack Ye Ruxuan, but Ye Ruxuan came forward to provoke her every day, so Ye Ruzhen had to poke at Ye Ruxuan's weak spot.

"Is Miss Ye being a little aggressive? Xiaoxuan just wants to say hello to you."

Seeing that Ye Ruxuan couldn't win the argument, Leng Qingyan had no choice but to speak up to help.

"Leng Qingyan, stop it. Just pretend in front of others, but save yourself in front of me."

Ye Ruzhen didn't give Leng Qingyan any face at all. She crossed her arms across her chest and turned her body to one side.

Leng Qingyan secretly clenched her fists and said in a calm voice,

"Ms. Ye, although there is a difference between you and Xiaoxuan, there should be no difference in the relationship between sisters. Xiaoxuan is your biological sister after all. It is a bit too much for you to speak ill of her like this."

"It's really hilarious. You care so much about sisterhood, why don't you call all your half-sisters in Yuzhou to come to Kyoto? Your father is the governor of Yuzhou, your mother, your sisters, your whole family are in Yuzhou, but you are the only one who followed Master Leng to Kyoto. I don't believe that your sisters don't want to come to Kyoto."

Ye Ruzhen was too lazy to continue entangled with the two of them, so she turned around and left, muttering as she left,

"Tsk, why are you pretending?"

Ye Ruzhen was about to go down the stairs, but saw Su Lanlan, the eldest daughter of the Su family, climbing up the stairs. So Ye Ruzhen wanted to make way, but she was suddenly tripped by something, and a strong force from behind made her roll straight down the stairs.

"Miss!"

Ting He saw Ye Ruzhen rolling down the stairs and shouted anxiously. Ye Ruzhen felt dizzy and seemed to have hit something soft again, and finally she rolled down with the soft thing.

"what!"

"Ouch~"

"Sister Yao, be careful!"

Ye Ruzhen seemed to hear the sound of tea spilling, and the scalding hot water instantly poured over her body. Even though she was wearing several layers of clothes, she still felt a burning sensation on her skin.

"How dare you spill tea on me! Do you know how expensive my clothes are?!"

In a daze, Ye Ruzhen seemed to hear a woman's delicate voice, and the voice seemed to be the second lady of the Rongguo Mansion.

"Miss, calm down. It was these two ladies who suddenly bumped into me and I lost my balance."

The waiter in the store was explaining in a panic, but Ye Ruzhen only felt her head buzzing and pain all over her body.

Ye Ruxuan, who was standing high up, felt a little uneasy when she saw Ye Ruzhen rolling down.

"Sister Leng, isn't this a bit inappropriate for us to do this..."

Although the stairs are not very high, it would be extremely painful if I rolled down like this.

"What happened to us? Didn't Miss Ye fall because she didn't stand firmly?"

Leng Qingyan's eyes flashed with malice. How dare a little daughter of Jingzhao Yin yell at her? Ye Ruxuan, who was standing by, looked flustered. She didn't dare to look in Ye Ruzhen's direction.

"Why is Meng Yao here too? If we run into this lunatic, don't get involved with us, just leave."

Leng Qingyan pulled Ye Ruxuan away from the scene and hid in the private room next door.

Su Lanlan stood up with the help of her maid. At this moment, she looked at Ye Ruzhen with some anger.

"Whose daughter are you? Why are you so unruly? Can't you even walk?"

When Meng Yao saw that Su Lanlan was also among them, she spoke with embarrassment,

"Su Lanlan, you didn't look at the road when you walked, and you blame others?"

Meng Yao's skirt was mostly wet. She was feeling unhappy at the moment. The Meng family and the Su family had always been at loggerheads because of the dispute between the two princes. Moreover, Su Lanlan was known as the most beautiful woman in Kyoto. After what happened today, she wanted to see if Su Lanlan's title of beauty was true!

"Meng Yao, stop making a fuss here. I'm questioning Miss Ye, and you have no right to interrupt me."

"Su Lanlan, why do you care about me? I am the daughter of the Duke's Mansion!"

"You are the daughter of the Duke's Mansion, and I am also the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion!"

Su Lanlan and Meng Yao were bickering with each other, while Ye Ruzhen sat on the ground with her head down. In fact, most of the tea had spilled on her body, and now her clothes were sticky on her skin, making her feel uncomfortable. But Ye Ruzhen didn't dare to say anything, because she couldn't afford to offend these two people.

Normally, she would secretly say bad things about him behind his back, but she would not dare to be presumptuous when facing him. She was not liked by her father to begin with. If she angered the Prime Minister's Mansion or the Duke's Mansion, her father would definitely hand her over immediately.
