The Rebirth of an Ill-Fated Consort

Chapter 80 Marriage (3)

Hongying was embroidering in the house, the weather was not very good, the light was not very clear, after embroidering for a long time, she felt dissatisfied with the embroidery, and was really annoyed, so she saw the girl came forward and said: "Auntie, the eldest lady is here."

"Miss?" She frowned slightly, she didn't expect Jiang Ruan to come.Except for Jiang Quan, no one else has ever set foot in this courtyard. She stood up, and Jiang Ruan just walked in. Seeing her, she smiled and said, "My aunt is embroidering, and her embroidery is really good."

Hongying followed her gaze to look at the embroidery on the table. It was embroidered for Jiang Quan in the shape of a purse. The embroidered blue clouds and white cranes were lifelike.

"Just embroidering for fun," Hongying said with a smile, "If Missy likes it, I can embroider one for Missy someday."

"Then I would like to thank Fifth Yiniang." Jiang Ruan accepted with a smile, scanned the room, and said: "In the past, everyone said that father loved Fifth Yiniang the most, but I didn't believe it. Now that I see you, I don't believe it."

The layout of the room is exquisite, but seeing that all the things placed in front of the shelf table are exquisite and precious, Jiang Quan must have put a lot of thought into Hongying.

Hongying was startled, and said with a smile: "Master naturally loves Madam the most, Missy is just joking."

"I never joke." Jiang Ruan said with a smile: "I came to visit Fifth Auntie today, but there is nothing wrong with it." She looked gentle: "The mansion is not peaceful these days, and the second sister and second brother have suffered misfortunes again and again, but it seems that they have been forced It’s like a curse. I wonder if it’s my turn to be the next one.”

Hongying's heart skipped a beat when she heard the words, she looked at Jiang Ruan and said, "Why did the eldest girl say that?"

"Intuition." Jiang Ruan smiled: "I don't have any close people in the house, and my mother passed away too early. Although my mother treated me well, I already have two younger sisters and second elder brothers..." Her voice was low: " There are some things I can only say to Fifth Yiniang. It would be great if Fifth Yiniang was the hostess of the house. A kind person like Fifth Yiniang will definitely protect me at all times, and I will definitely repay Fifth Yiniang , so that the Jiang family and Hemeimei will prosper."

Fifth Yiniang pursed her lips, her heart beat violently for some reason.She looked at Jiang Ruan inquisitively, and looked at her with a smile in those charming bright eyes, which were clearly warm and moist like running water, but it was like looking at flowers in a fog, unable to see the emotions clearly.She was born in a brothel, and she has met many people of all kinds, and she can understand people's hearts, but she doesn't understand the 12-year-old girl in front of her.

"Miss really thinks that this concubine is qualified to be the mistress of Jiang's mansion?" She heard her trembling voice.

Jiang Ruan picked up the teacup in front of her with a smile, and took a sip: "Why not?"

Hongying looked at her, and suddenly showed a smile: "Miss is such a concubine, I don't know what to do. In fact, if the miss doesn't come to look for the concubine today, the concubine will go to meet the miss for a while."

Jiang Ruan looked at her with a smile, and Hongying said again: "The concubine chatted with the master yesterday, and the master talked about the Li family father and son. The young lady also knows about the young master Li and the second young lady. The young master Li is like this now. Prime Minister Li must not be able to tolerate the second lady, but the master does not want to tear himself apart with Prime Minister Li, so he wants to let the eldest lady marry into the Li family instead of the second lady." After saying this, she carefully observed Jiang Ruan's expression, but saw that The expression on Zhang Mingyan's face remained unchanged, and the smile on her lips remained the same, as if wearing a perfect mask.

Jiang Ruan sighed softly: "My father loves my second sister so much, I really envy him."

Seeing this, Hongying said: "My concubine is also worried physically and mentally. It is clearly caused by the second lady. How can I make the eldest miss apologize. Besides, the eldest young master Li is now considered a useless person. If the eldest lady really married, she would definitely be miserable. "

Jiang Ruan pondered for a moment, then smiled at Hongying: "Thank you for the advice, Fifth Yiniang, but it's hard for me to interfere with my father's decision. If he really has made up his mind, Jiang Ruan, as the daughter of the Jiang family, can only accept it."

Hongying was taken aback: "Miss agrees to marry?"

"I agree, father agrees, I wonder if Master Li agrees?" Jiang Ruan smiled lightly and stood up: "I have a lot of time, I should go back." After a pause, her eyes fell on the embroidery on the table. In appearance, she said with a smile: "Father loves Wu Yiniang, and Wu Yiniang should care about her father. But I still want to remind Wu Yiniang that if she has no children, Wu Yiniang is actually the same as Tongfang Lianye." She said with a smile After finishing the following words: "If you have children, you have no status, and the fate of those children and aunts is the same."

After Jiang Ruan left for a long time, Hongying was still sitting there in a daze, and the maid beside her asked cautiously, "Auntie?"

Hongying waved her hands, her expression was full of exhaustion, and she said in a low voice, "What exactly is Missy going to do?"

……

Ye Feng stood in front of the desk in Jingzhong Jinying's mansion and said: "General Guan sent a message back, and he will return to Beijing next month." After a pause, he continued: "This subordinate is on a mission today, listen to the following It seems that recently someone ransacked the remaining food in the city, and it might be related to His Highness the Eighth Highness, so I inquired carefully and found that it was done by the maid next to Miss Jiang's family." He frowned: "But I don't know the purpose."

Xiao Shao turned around, his face darkened, making that handsome face a little colder, and said: "Continue to inquire. Pay attention to the movements in Li Dong's house."

"Prime Minister Li?" Ye Feng said in surprise, "Master wants to deal with him in advance?"

Xiao Shao shook his head: "The lives of Li's parents and their sons are at stake. This matter has something to do with the Jiang family. The Jiang family doesn't want to feud with the Li family. I guess it's right. It's time for Jiang Quan to take action."

Ye Feng thought for a while: "The Xia family is behind the Jiang family, and the Xia family is also a faction of the Eighth Prince. Maybe the Eighth Prince will come forward." After all, the Xia family and the Li family are rare resources, and Ye Li will not let them go in vain. .He suddenly laughed: "I really don't know how the eighth prince is feeling when he knows his subordinates. In short, it's okay for the eldest son of the Li family to end up in such a difficult situation, but the second miss Jiang has also done a good thing. He castrated Li Yang like this. The Li family and the Jiang family have a rift no matter what."

Xiao Shao didn't correct Ye Feng's words, thinking of Jiang Ruan's neatness when he cut off Li Yang's thing with broken porcelain pieces without hesitation that day in the house, it was clearly a girl in the boudoir, but she couldn't bear to see such a bloody scene. There was no trace of embarrassment, only indifference in his eyes, looking at Li Yang as if looking at a dead pig waiting to be slaughtered.

Over the years, he has seen a lot, and if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he really couldn't believe that a young girl with a deep boudoir would have the eyes of a killer.

How did Jiang Quan's eldest daughter be raised?

After a while, Xiao Shao withdrew his thoughts and said coldly, "I'll go into the palace."

……

In the north of the capital, firecrackers blared at the entrance of a three-entry mansion. In front of the vermilion gate pillars were two lions baring their teeth and dancing their paws. On the top was a golden plaque tied with red flowers, and the above two big characters: Liufu.
