Chapter 419: Three Simple Words
Song Taotao never expected that Ye Sanqing would come to her rescue.
Of course, it's still hard to say whether Ye Sanqing came to the rescue...
"Sister-in-law."
As Ye Sanqing and his group walked over, passersby automatically made way for them. They walked up behind Song Taotao and greeted her.
At this moment, Sheng Hanyu chose to wear a mask and become an expressionless audience member.
Suddenly, Song Taotao felt confident. She straightened her back and looked directly at the others in front of her.
"Who do we have here? Oh, it's just the woman the mistress has her eye on!"
A sharp, sarcastic voice came from the crowd.
Ye Sanqing looked toward the source of the sound and was immediately struck by the enormous diamond ring on the man's hand.
I really should wear sunglasses today.
It was a young woman, very, very young, probably only in her early eighteens.
She has a youthful face, her baby fat hasn't gone away yet, and her figure is also youthful, but she is wearing a cheongsam.
The cheongsam was a deep, maroon color embroidered with gold thread, and her updo made her look like a child wearing adult clothes.
The person who can call Lu Mingye "mistress" must be of a relatively high generation.
But that's Lu Mingye's generation, not Ye Sanqing's.
"Hello, my name is Ye Sanqing. It's just three simple characters. If you can't read, I can teach you."
Ye Sanqing said without any emotion.
From her age and attire to her tone of voice, she was basically certain that this was Ni Zhen, the ninth concubine of the Lu family.
Her words were meant to be sarcastic, but it's rare for someone being mocked to immediately get angry.
The Ninth Concubine immediately retorted in a shrill voice, "You're the one who can't read! I've been to school!"
"How old are you this year?" Ye Jin'er added from the side.
Although he didn't have a very good impression of Song Taotao, he couldn't possibly ignore her in this situation.
Could Ye Xi have come here specifically to dump the problem on them because she didn't want to deal with it herself...? And where is Ye Tian at a time like this...?
On a small scale, this is a matter of face for the Ye family; on a larger scale, isn't this just another opportunity to pick a fight with the Lu family?
Ye Jin'er almost laughed. He hadn't expected the Lu family to be so eager to offer themselves to him before he came.
"I'm eighteen this year~" Ninth Concubine said instinctively in a coquettish voice, even swaying her waist a couple of times.
Song Taotao: ...
She really didn't want to admit that this person had once been her colleague at the same company.
But it is precisely this relationship that allows Ni Zhen to act arrogantly and domineeringly in front of Song Taotao today.
Song Taotao originally didn't want to argue with her, because frankly speaking, Ni Zhen's seniority was too high now, and Song Taotao herself didn't have a particularly strong position in the Ye family, so she originally planned to let the other party make a few sarcastic remarks and then let it go.
Little did she know that Ni Zhen not only wanted to vent her frustrations, but also wanted her to do something even more embarrassing, which is why they were at an impasse.
"You said it yourself, you're eighteen, so you've never been to university."
Ye Jin'er shrugged helplessly, her face displaying an expression that said, "I'm not discriminating against people with higher education, but look at this..."
"No, Ninth Concubine is nineteen years old this year."
Someone nearby added, while also giving Ninth Concubine a meaningful look.
Ye Jin'er couldn't be bothered with this kind of person.
If we're talking about the Lu family taking sides, anyone who can stand with Ninth Concubine is a genius; they're utterly spineless and there's no need to waste your attention on them.
"Is going to university so great? I don't need to go to university to have this~ Many college students can't afford it even if they work their whole lives~" Ninth Concubine stretched out her hand with a diamond ring.
From the moment she came into Ye Sanqing's sight, she had been deliberately holding her hand up to her cheek, as if she couldn't speak without the diamond.
A microphone?
Ye Sanqing chuckled inwardly, not realizing that diamonds had this function.
"You can read, right? Don't call me by the wrong name again."
Ye Sanqing said, then looked at Ye Jin'er with great concern, his eyes conveying a sense of "She probably won't write your name, what should we do?"
The Ninth Concubine couldn't understand the way their eyes were meeting, but Sheng Hanyu did, and he started to smile inwardly.
Oh no, it would be quite embarrassing if she misspelled my name.
"I can call you whatever I want! Oh, right, you're the eldest daughter-in-law's older sister, right? Then you have to call me Grandma too! Hurry up and greet her!"
Ninth Concubine felt that although they didn't speak, their eyes were full of mockery towards her, so she immediately put on a stern face and said...
But because she was so young, and had to pose with diamonds on her clothes, the scene...
Although it might not be the right time, Ye Sanqing suddenly remembered his grandmother from his time in interstellar space.
She burst into laughter.
I can't help it, I really can't help it.
Putting age aside, the difference in their presence is too great...
Ye Sanqing did not believe he should call anyone other than the founding emperor "grandmother".
Of course, it's not entirely unacceptable to use it as a respectful title if the woman is older, but as for the Ninth Concubine...
"How could your family be like this!"
Before Ye Sanqing could finish laughing, Ninth Aunt became even more furious. She stomped her foot and said, "If one won't call them that, neither will the other. How exactly does the Ye family raise their children?!"
As soon as she said this, everyone looked at Song Taotao.
Song Taotao's lips twitched, indicating her agreement.
This is the reason why Ni Zhen is making things difficult for her today. Not only does she want her to call her "Grandma," but she also plans to film a short video and post it online.
Although Song Taotao is about to marry Ye Feifan, and her job as a live streamer may not necessarily require any management, this is still too... bizarre.
It was so bizarre that she didn't even have time to consider whether it would be better to call out and then go online to play the victim, or to argue with the other party.
The people around immediately chimed in with their own opinions.
Ye Jin'er sneered, "You have a problem with the Ye family, don't you?"
Just as he expected, those who sided with Ninth Concubine were all fools.
His gaze swept across the faces of these people.
Some of them shut their mouths with a hint of wariness, while others, feeling they had touched a nerve, continued to speak with smug satisfaction.
Ye Sanqing raised his hand and took a picture.
She didn't turn off the flash; it was very deliberate.
If someone flashes at her, she has to flash back.
"What are you taking pictures of! Don't post them!"
Ninth Concubine instinctively covered her eyes, then immediately took out her phone to check if her makeup had smudged.
"Why do you care about me?"
Ye Sanqing not only wanted to make money, but he wanted to make money everywhere.
As a result, Lu Mingye and Lu Xuening both received this message, and even Lu Wangshen received it.
Ye Sanqing knew he was definitely watching, but so what? She was going to send it to him specifically to emphasize the seriousness of the matter.
Not only that, she also posts on Weibo.
Soon, the phone started ringing incessantly, and the sound became more and more frequent.
The Ninth Concubine was checking her makeup when she saw a constant stream of notifications on Weibo. Thinking it was feedback on her beautiful photos from today, she happily clicked on them.
[@Actor Ye Sanqing: Today I witnessed what feudal remnants really mean. @ReallySweet]
The attached photos are just some random pictures I took earlier. Because they weren't edited and were taken with a flash, they turned out to be a major disaster.
The comments section under this Weibo post was naturally filled with onlookers who, having just heard about Cha Ziwen's gossip, were now swarming around to mock her.
"Ye Sanqing!" she exclaimed after reading it.
"See, you know my name, don't you?"
Ye Sanqing put on an impeccable smile.
