Chapter 346 Desire to Break a Branch
Going to the Yan Mansion was something many girls from other clans dreamed of.
Their collateral relatives are oppressed by the direct line, never having a chance to rise above their circumstances, or they are used as tools for political marriages.
But if it's a tool, then using the sharpest one is the greatest contribution you can make to the family.
The Yan family! Normally, they would never have any contact.
No matter who invites you or under what pretext, as long as you can get in, it's an opportunity.
The girls from other tribes were eager to try it out, and they took the invitation and found their best clothes overnight.
Please ask the nanny to tailor a plan for you so that you can be in your best condition.
He even spent more than half a year's money to buy a gift to meet the legendary girl.
Of course, these legitimate daughters also heard the rumors, and since they hadn't received an invitation, they couldn't presume to visit the mansion.
I just wanted to see what Zhongli Yueluo was up to.
He instructed his collateral relatives to return after attending the banquet and to explain every detail.
Qianqiu Changhuan was petty and narrow-minded about Yan Ruoyu.
Zhongli Yueluo deliberately leaked this information to her ears.
Given her strong-willed nature, she would never visit, and she has never liked associating with collateral relatives.
She could only stay at home doing nothing.
Chang Yuxuan also heard the news, but she wasn't too surprised. A faint smile appeared on her lips.
It remains to be seen who will emerge victorious.
As dawn broke, cars began to pull up at Yan's residence, some wondering if they had arrived too early.
Zhongli Yueluo was already dressed elegantly, with her hands placed in front of her abdomen and a standard smile on her face.
Looking at the girls coming and going, she had stayed up all night memorizing the portraits of the Pang family members.
His warm smile betrayed no insincerity: "This young lady must be Miss Liu's; she is indeed as lovely as the rumors say."
After that, several more girls came out one after another. They looked somewhat timid, and Zhongli Yueluo greeted them one by one.
"This must be the eldest daughter of the Zhang family, and this is the second daughter of the Xu family. Oh, and you must be the youngest daughter of the Jiang family?"
Unexpectedly, Zhongli Yueluo, whom they had never met before, was able to recognize which clan they belonged to.
Even if there were five or six people in the next row, she could accurately name their families.
All the girls stood there, their eyes filled with shock.
This girl may not be strikingly beautiful, but her aura is exceptional.
Standing among this group of elegantly dressed and strikingly beautiful girls, I still managed to catch her eye at first glance.
They possessed an ethereal quality that they couldn't suppress.
"Today I have invited all of you sisters to the Yan Mansion to admire the flowers. Although it is still a bit cold, there are some rare and exotic flowers in bloom."
Among them were those who relied on Qianqiu Changhuan, and their personalities were particularly spoiled and domineering.
"You're the legendary Zhongli Yueluo? I don't think you're anything special."
Zhongli Yueluo turned her head and smiled slightly. People who speak their minds like this are actually easier to deal with.
The purpose of today is to see clearly which faction these girls from other branches have chosen.
Upon hearing these words, it's likely that the person is on the side of eternal joy.
“Miss Jiang, what you say makes sense. I really am not that great.”
“But I can come and go freely in the Yan Mansion, which none of you sisters here can do.”
Her tone was completely flat as she carefully observed the expressions on everyone's faces; she disdained to associate with these people.
They just wanted to hold a banquet to stir up the excitement of the Thousand Autumns Joy Festival and, incidentally, see what Changyu Xuanyuan was up to.
"You! Who do you think you are, coming and going as you please in the Yan mansion? You might just be a servant in the Yan mansion!"
Jiang started being aggressive again.
Hearing her say that, many of the girls who were wavering in the middle began to whisper among themselves.
"I don't think she has a very good temperament, and she's not as good-looking as us sisters."
"She claims she can come and go as she pleases in the Salt Prefecture; that's a bit of an exaggeration..."
"Young Master Ruoyu hasn't admitted to any relationship with them, so who knows what methods she used?"
Zhongli Yueluo didn't care, casually picked up a flower from the side, and walked ahead.
Pointing to the flowers in the garden, all vying for attention, she said, "Look how beautifully these flowers are blooming."
Although it was just a short sentence, it seemed as if they all heard a different meaning.
"Some flowers always like to sprout, which affects the overall aesthetics. As a gardener, I will cut them off."
A pair of scissors appeared in his hand without his noticing, and a bright red flower was blooming there. With a snip, the flower bud fell to the ground.
A chill ran through everyone; the banquet was being paid for with a sense of trepidation.
"There's a phrase 'a riot of flowers,' and another 'a single flower standing out.' I wonder if you ladies have heard of them?"
Her smile revealed her two dimples, which made people less wary of her.
She tilted her head and squinted as she observed the girls; some were outgoing and open, while others were reserved and unique.
Some seemed to be sent on missions by their own daughters; they knew what to manipulate and what to discard.
Seeing her cutting flowers earlier, Madam Jiang felt resentful again: "What do you mean by that!"
"What do I mean? Of course I don't mean anything. After all, I am a foreigner and a daughter of a merchant family."
The scissors in her hand twirled between her fingers: "Of course, they cannot compare to the noble and precious girls of various clans."
From the information she gave in those words, these girls realized that she was actually just an ordinary commoner.
Then why are those legitimate sons and daughters so attentive to her?
"I wonder what the relationship is between Miss Yueluo and Young Master Ruoyu?"
When Liu asked, her voice was sweet and clear, and she seemed to have no ulterior motives.
"When the time comes for you to enter the clan school, I will give you all an answer."
After spending half a day strolling in the garden, drinking tea and chatting, many people thought Zhongli Yueluo was quite nice.
Seeing that an ordinary person like her could gain favor from the main branch of the family, their hearts were filled with hope.
Even if she's not the official couple, being a concubine would be nice.
They chatted and drank tea, while Yan Ruoyu's hidden men listened to their every move.
Zhongli Yueluo wandered among the girls and overheard some useful information.
Those were almost all family secrets, such as Changyu Xuanyuan, who just seemed carefree and kind to everyone on the surface.
But there are also some unknown aspects on the other side...
For example, what Qianqiu Chang'an heard was no different from what she herself had come into contact with.
What she needs to do tomorrow is to invite those young masters from collateral branches, so that everyone knows about Zhongli Yueluo, at least before they enter the clan school.
By afternoon, the gathering had ended, and Zhongli Yueluo stood at the door, seeing the girls off.
They had already made up their minds which ones to keep for their own use and which ones to eradicate completely.
She stood at the door until the last person left, and the smile on her face gradually disappeared.
