Ye Jingshu and Ye Jingyu pulled Ye Jingyan along for a long time until they were almost exhausted, at which point they switched from running to walking.
Although Ye Jingyan was being led and dragged the whole time, she never showed her feet when walking, and even when running, she took small, quick steps. How could she withstand such high-intensity movements?
Ye Jingshu and Ye Jingyu were exhausted from dealing with an uncooperative person, and Ye Jingyan wasn't much better off than them.
Moreover, she could not only shed tears, but also sweat profusely, her face covered in a mixture of tears and sweat.
This half hour was the most agonizing half hour of her life so far!
Moreover, after the morning run, we still had to do that awkward warm-up exercise.
After the warm-up exercises, everyone felt refreshed and walked briskly, except for Ye Jingyan, who felt like her legs weren't even her own anymore and could only continue to be dragged along by Ye Jingshu.
Although she was being dragged along the whole time, Ye Jingshu walked briskly, showing no signs of fatigue.
At this moment, Ye Jingyan was acutely aware of the gap between her physical strength and that of these people. Not to mention those who were older or around the same age as her, she couldn't even compare to Ye Jingyu and her two four-year-old brothers.
For a fleeting moment, Ye Jingyan felt ashamed.
But it only lasted for a moment.
Women are inherently delicate. My mother once said that girls should be as slender as willows in the wind to be lovable.
Although she herself knew that her mother was contradictory in teaching her to avoid people while simultaneously instructing her on various ways to please others.
But her mother was the person who loved her most in the world and would never harm her; she had to listen to her mother.
After her morning exercise, Ye Jingyan was dragged to have breakfast.
Before breakfast, Ye Jingshu took her to wash her face, washing away the tears and sweat.
She cried for a long time, her eyes were red and swollen, and she looked like a frightened little rabbit, which was very endearing.
With her pitiful beauty, she certainly had the potential to become a femme fatale when she grew up, but apart from her status as a princess, she had no ability to protect herself.
Ye Jingshu sighed heavily. Changing Ye Jingyan was a long and arduous task!
During breakfast, Ye Jingyan once again discovered that she didn't fit in with them.
Originally, girls were absolutely not allowed to sit at the same table with boys after the age of seven, not even their own brothers!
What's more, there are four other men here!
However, only one table was set out for breakfast at the East Palace. Everyone sat around the table, and the elder and younger sisters sat comfortably among a group of men, without the slightest discomfort.
Ye Jingshu took pity on her and arranged for her to sit between herself and Ye Jingyu, but Ye Jingyan still didn't want to sit in that position, and in the end, Ye Jingshu pressed her down.
"Eat! If you don't eat, you'll go hungry!" Ye Jingyan shoved the chopsticks and spoon into her hands and then ignored her.
Ye Jingyan didn't want to eat, but she had been dragged to the East Palace by her elder sister early in the morning and hadn't eaten anything to fill her stomach. She was also tired after half an hour. More importantly, everyone at the table ate in a very unrestrained manner, including her elder sister and younger sister.
Seeing how much they were enjoying their food, Ye Jingyan realized she was hungry too.
Although there were palace maids standing nearby, no one asked them to serve food. Everyone, including the four-year-old imperial brothers, ate their own food.
Under these circumstances, Ye Jingyan did not want to be treated specially.
The most crucial thing is—
How embarrassing it would be if she asked the palace maids to serve her food, but they ignored her!
She struggled for a long time before finally overcoming her psychological barrier and reaching for the pastry closest to her with her chopsticks.
After taking a bite, Ye Jingyan's eyes lit up.
The pastries at the East Palace are so delicious!
She ate the pastry in small bites, captivated by its deliciousness, completely unaware that after she started eating, Ye Jingshu had already picked up all the other pastries left on the plate.
So when Ye Jingyan finished one piece and wanted to take a second one, she found that the plate was empty, while her elder sister and younger sister each had several pieces of this pastry piled up in their plates.
Her elder sister had been bullying her all day, and her younger sister was an accomplice. She glared at the two of them with resentful eyes.
"What are you looking at us for? There's more than just this plate of pastries on the table. If you want some, go get some more!" Ye Jingshu retorted.
Ye Jingyan's tears welled up in her eyes.
But the people here didn't seem to feel any pity or sympathy when they saw her crying. She didn't even know if she should continue crying.
"Fangfei, go and help the Second Princess serve the food. Let her taste every dish," Ye Jingchen said to Fangfei, who was standing to the side.
"She has hands, can't she use them herself?" Ye Jingshu said with dissatisfaction.
Even eating is so awkward and hesitant; he needs to change!
"Let's make an exception today and let her get used to it!" Ye Jingchen smiled.
Because Ye Jingchen told Fangfei to let Ye Jingyan taste each dish, Fangfei quickly took some of each dish and placed it on a plate. Soon, there were two plates in front of Ye Jingyan, and each plate was piled high with food.
Ye Jingyan stared in disbelief at the sheer amount of food; she couldn't possibly eat this much in a single day!
Is this trying to stuff her to death?
She had just been silently thanking her brother, but she never expected that he would also bully her!
In fact, the plate wasn't very big, and although there was quite a lot of food piled on it, it wasn't enough to make Ye Jingyan feel stuffed.
"Second sister, these are all from your brother's heartfelt wishes. Eat them all, okay?" Ye Jingchen said to her with a smile.
Ye Jingyan flinched in fright, feeling that her brother was threatening her.
But she dared not resist.
She could only slowly begin to finish the two dishes of food in front of her.
The food at the Eastern Palace was delicious; every dish was wonderful. But even so, seeing these two full plates of food made her want to cry.
"Second sister, your brother is doing this for your own good. You need to eat more to grow taller and fatter. Look at how frail you are. A gust of wind could knock you over. Jingyu and Jinghe could easily knock you over. If you encounter danger, wouldn't you be at the mercy of others?" Ye Jingchen said earnestly.
“That’s right! We’re all doing this for your own good, Second Sister!” Ye Jingshu chimed in with a smile.
"Second Imperial Sister, you're too thin. It's not good for your health," Ye Jingyu said.
Under the watchful eyes of the three people, Ye Jingyan stuffed food into her mouth with tears in her eyes.
In the past, whenever her mother asked her to do something she didn't like, she would say it was for her own good and that she wouldn't harm her. She always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.
But today, when her elder brother and sister used this sentence to pressure her, she finally realized that something was wrong with it!
Although they say it's for her own good, they may not really mean it. They just use this phrase to pressure and control her, and prevent her from arguing back, because arguing back would be considered ungrateful and heartless!
They are all so scary!
