The carriage slowly stopped in front of the gate of Ye Mansion. The maids sitting outside got off the carriage first, put the stools in place, and then got off the carriage holding their mistress's hand.
Everyone in front of the Ye Mansion had received the news long ago. They all had happy smiles on their faces and were waiting at the door.
As soon as Ye Jinyun and the other person got out of the car, a group of people immediately came to greet them and escorted them into the mansion.
When the servant at the door saw that his masters had all entered the gate, he took out a lighter and lit the firecrackers hanging at the door. Suddenly, the sound of firecrackers popped, and the Ye Mansion was very lively.
The group happily arrived at the main hall. Father Ye sat in the main seat at the top, his face glowing red as he looked at Ye Jinyun and the others and said:
"You two sisters have really brought honor to the Ye family's ancestors. Being chosen to enter the palace at the same time is truly a great honor. Dad is very pleased."
Yang couldn't help laughing beside her and said:
"Master is right. Our Ye family must have been blessed by the Bodhisattva to have two girls chosen at once, giving the Ye family the opportunity to enjoy this supreme honor. In the future, when Rong'er becomes the Empress of the Palace, it will benefit the Ye family's descendants for generations to come."
Father Ye nodded happily, "That's right, Rong'er and Yun'er, now that you two sisters have entered the palace, you must support each other and always remember the glory of the Ye family."
Ye Jinrong replied shyly: "Daddy is right. Rong'er will keep your words in mind and will definitely become the emperor's favorite concubine and ensure the prosperity of the Ye family."
Ye Jinyun didn't have such thoughts. He bowed, responded to Ye's father's words and said nothing more.
Father Ye noticed that she looked unhappy and thought that Ye Jinyun was worried that she would not be favored after entering the palace, so he said to her:
"Yun'er, you don't have to worry. Although you have some shortcomings in appearance and it is difficult for you to win the emperor's favor after entering the palace, you are Rong'er's biological sister. If she is favored, she will definitely help you. And your father is working hard for you and your sister in the court. You don't have to be afraid of being bullied in the palace."
Ye Jinyun knew that his father had misjudged him, but he did not explain and just agreed.
Although Ye Jinrong had disliked her elder sister since she was a child, she also knew that her father was right.
Naturally, the fewer enemies you have in the palace, the better. The other women in the palace are difficult enough to deal with. If sisters target each other, wouldn't that give others an opportunity? So she just agreed obediently.
The old lady and Yang pulled Ye Jinrong in front of them and talked to her for a while, and Ye Jinyun sat upright in his seat, drinking tea and eating his snacks.
Everyone thought that the third young lady was the protagonist of this palace entry, and the second young lady was just lucky to be chosen. Even if she entered the palace, she would not be favored, so no one came forward to greet her.
Since no one was bothering him, Ye Jinyun was happy to have some peace and quiet.
After sitting in the main hall for a while, a maid came to report that the eldest young master had returned.
Everyone in the room was even more excited. Ye Huaibai, the eldest son of the Ye family, had not returned home since he went out to study three years ago. He only sent back a letter every month. His parents at home had long been worried about him, and the old lady often mentioned him.
The letter I received last month said that he would be leaving for home soon. I didn't expect that he would arrive on this auspicious day.
The group happily prepared to go and greet them. As soon as they stepped out of the door, they saw Ye Huaibai, who looked weathered, already in the yard of the main house.
Seeing his family coming to greet him, Ye Huaibai brushed the hem of his robe and knelt on the ground with a plop:
"Father and mother, the child is back."
After saying that, he turned around and said to Old Mrs. Ye: "Grandma, your grandson is unfilial. Your grandson is back."
"Hey, hey, my dear grandson, get up quickly, it's good that you're back, it's good that you're back," Old Mrs. Ye's eyes were moist, and she reached out to help him.
Yang had already been crying. If it weren't for her personal maid supporting her, she would have fallen to the ground.
Father Ye's face was also quite moved, but as the head of the family after all, he did not cry like a woman. His eyes were just slightly red, and he nodded with relief:
"Bai'er, get up quickly. You must have had a hard time on the journey. I'm glad you come back safely."
After Ye Huaibai stood up, he looked at Ye Jinyun and Ye Jinrong who were standing behind his father with a warm smile on his face: "It's been three years since we last met. Both of you have grown up into grown-ups."
When Ye Jinrong saw her brother, whom she hadn't seen for three years, come home, she burst into tears and threw herself in front of him, saying bitterly:
"Brother hasn't been home for three years. He really doesn't miss Rong'er at all and has never come back to see Rong'er."
Ye Baihuai shook his head helplessly. His little sister had been spoiled and willful since she was a child, and she hadn't changed at all over the years. He could only coax her softly:
"It's big brother's fault for not coming back to see our Rong'er, so this time big brother brought Rong'er the favorite toys of girls in the south. Rong'er is very satisfied."
Only then did Ye Jinrong nod and smile brightly.
Ye Jinyun was very happy to see Ye Huaibai return home. After Ye Huaibai was born, he had been raised by her mother, who was the mistress of the Ye family at that time. At that time, Yang was still a concubine in the mansion. Since the mistress did not give birth to a legitimate son, she had no right to raise the son by her side.
Although he was born to a concubine in the mansion, Ye Jinyun's mother always treated Ye Huaibai as her own son, took good care of him, and hired a very knowledgeable teacher to teach him. Later, after Ye Jinyun was born, Ye Huaibai often followed her mother around to take care of his younger sister.
Even after her mother passed away and Yang became the mistress of the household, Ye Huaibai still took care of her as always.
Sometimes when Yang made things difficult for Ye Jinyun, Ye Huaibai would give her advice and even comfort her privately, fearing that she would be sad. If Ye Jinyun needed something, he would ask his servant to secretly deliver it to her.
