Nanny Yang's face was extremely ugly, and she was trembling with anger.
How dare this weak fourth girl... dare to tear up the female commandments sent by my wife, how brave!
The maidservants beside her were dumbfounded.
I secretly wondered in my heart, could it be that because of the resignation, the fourth girl was stimulated and her temperament changed drastically
That's right, it should be like this, these well-informed maidservants have long known that the fourth girl said in front of the old lady: If you can marry Duke Ding, even if you die, you will have no regrets.
The fourth girl is looking for death.
The maidservants trembled in their hearts. Don't look at the softness of the fourth girl, but it is shocking to be ruthless.
Jiang Ningbao raised her eyes and stared straight at Nanny Yang, as if she didn't see Nanny Yang's gloomy face, she showed a very faint smile, and her tone suddenly became cold: "Nurse Yang, go back and tell Auntie, As for female commandments, I will tear as many as she sends."
Nanny Yang glared at Jiang Ningbao, and angrily took the maidservants away.
Jiang Ningbao picked up the teacup and took a sip of the fragrant tea. She didn't expect her aunt to make a move so soon. If Mrs. Jiang sent her daughter over, she might tear it apart, and would only obey and obey.
This Nanny Yang... is an old bastard.
Ever since her daughter failed to crawl on her father's bed a few years ago, she was mercilessly humiliated and sold by her father, she has always hated the second room. When her parents were around, she didn't dare to wait for her parents to be 'passed away' Now, she, the daughter of the second wife, has no one to rely on, and with the support of the eldest wife, Mrs. Zhang, she becomes more courageous.
Secretly always do some small tricks to scare her.
Jiang Ningbao sneered inwardly.
At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and after a while, a cold, slightly nervous voice sounded outside the door.
"Fourth sister, are you there?"
Jiang Ningbao didn't expect fifth sister Jiang Mingyao to come, she said flatly.
"come in."
Fifth Sister, how should I put it, she is a good girl with a cold temper and integrity, she is not at all like Mrs. Zhang, but in this era of parents' orders and matchmaker's words, she finally married Xie Jingyi's biological younger brother.
In the book, after she got married, she secretly helped Jiang Ningbao several times because of her guilt towards Jiang Ningbao.
Later, Xie Jingyi and the hostess found out that Jiang Mingyao, who had never given birth to a child, was sent to the family temple by her husband who despised her because of various schemes in the backyard.
Jiang Ningbao sighed.
Sometimes, people really can't be too straight.
Jiang Mingyao came in alone. As soon as she came in, she saw the broken pages of the book scattered on the ground, and her cold face froze for a moment. When she saw the handwriting on the page, she realized that it was a female commandment.
Thinking of the Nanny Yang she met on the road, Jiang Mingyao's heart sank, she pursed her lips, and her cold voice was apologetic.
"Fourth sister, I'm sorry."
Jiang Ningbao smiled slightly, beckoned her over, and poured tea and water for her.
"Fifth Sister, it's none of your business, don't take it to heart, this is the spring tea sent by shopkeeper Yao, you can taste it."
Sitting opposite the fourth sister, Jiang Mingyao picked up the teacup and took a sip. The slightly astringent tea entered her throat. Looking at the calm and pretty face of the fourth sister, her heart miraculously calmed down. She pursed her lips and said in a low voice said a word.
"Fourth sister, my grandmother and my mother fell in love with Xie Jinghui, the second son of the second wife of the Xie family, and wanted me...to marry him."
"But I don't want to."
"I don't want to step on my fourth sister to marry Xie Jinghui."
Jiang Ningbao had already known about Mrs. Zhang's calculations from the book. The original trajectory was that Jiang Ningbao was unwilling to withdraw from the marriage, but Mrs. Ding reached an agreement in private with the son of Dingguo's mansion and strongly withdrew from the marriage.
All the benefits were taken by Mrs. Zhang.
Now she is nostalgic for this marriage, and she doesn't want to be the younger sister of the eldest son, so she says that she wants to marry Duke Ding, so that their calculations will come to naught.
Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Jiang will definitely be angry.
Therefore, the fate of the fifth sister has not changed, and it is imperative to tie the fifth sister and the second wife of Xie's family together.
"Fifth sister, Xie Jinghui is a good person as long as you don't touch his bottom line." Jiang Ningbao said in a soft voice, seeking truth from facts.
No matter how hateful Mrs. Zhang is, Fifth Sister is innocent.
Jiang Ningbao is not the kind of person who likes to vent his anger.
In the book, Xie Jinghui had affection for Jiang Mingyao at the beginning, as long as Jiang Mingyao corrected her mentality, don't feel guilty because of her, alienate him, be framed by other women, and wear away Xie Jinghui's affection for her, so that she can live happily ever after. Xie Jinghui manages his own small life, so he might not be happy.
Sometimes, a small change, the fate will be very different.
Jiang Mingyao was taken aback for a moment, raised her eyes to look at the smiling fourth sister, and said slowly: "Fourth sister, you... are you not angry?"
"What's there to be angry about? I'm just a niece. You are my aunt's direct daughter. It's clear at a glance whether you are close or distant. Isn't this human nature? As I said, I admire Duke Ding. If you can marry him, even if you die No regrets." Jiang Ningbao smiled, her smile was calm and soft, with the gentleness of water that belonged to a woman.
This is actually a lie, Jiang Ningbao in this life is a life-saving person.
She has a body that cannot die, except that her lifespan is exhausted and she dies of old age or commits suicide, otherwise she is like weeds all over the mountains, wild fires are endless, spring breeze blows again, and her vitality is frighteningly strong, so Duke Ding can still think about it Yes, if we meet, he really suits her taste, Jiang Ningbao doesn't mind chasing after him.
Mrs. Xie should be able to pass that level easily.
So Jiang Ningbao didn't care whether Duke Ding agreed or not.
Receive him one day.
Jiang Ningbao is domineering and confident.
Jiang Mingyao stared at Fourth Sister in a daze, suddenly felt that Fourth Sister's smile was really beautiful.
"Fourth Sister, Duke Ding is a dangerous person, don't be arrogant and make fun of your own life."
Jiang Ningbao smiled and said nothing, but Jiang Mingyao saw the determination in her eyes. She became more and more anxious, and was about to open her mouth to persuade, but Jiang Ningbao gently patted the back of her hand: "Fifth Sister, it's about my lifelong happiness. I have my own opinion, you don't need to say more."
Jiang Mingyao could only leave with a heart full of guilt.
The yard was quiet again.
Jiang Ningbao took out a stack of account books, drank tea, and looked at them slowly. Fragments of warm sunlight shone into the room from the window lattice and scattered on the desk, bright and warm.
Mrs. Zhang, the eldest lady of the main courtyard, received the report from Nanny Yang. She was so angry that she suddenly slammed the teacup in her hand, and said with a gloomy expression, "Okay, very good. The fourth girl really doesn't know how to live or die. Waiting to get back this Let's see how I deal with her!"
When Nanny Yang heard this, her old face couldn't help showing a look of joy, adding fuel to the flames: "What madam said is that Miss Fourth's marriage is still in your hands."
This mother Yang is also a vicious person.
As a servant, she had a grievance with the second room, but she could not deceive the master, except for doing some small tricks secretly, she could only use the hands of the eldest lady to teach the fourth girl.
The eldest lady Zhang sneered: "The fourth girl will marry Duke Ding regardless of her life or death, and she doesn't care whether she has the fate. It's better to die, so I don't have to worry about it. If I don't die, I will definitely say something for her." 'Good' marriage!"
Nanny Yang is even happier now.
Dingguo Mansion, Rongxi Hall, surrounded by sandalwood.
The silver-haired Mrs. Xie slowly brushed off the floating tea leaves in the tea bowl with a tea cover, and quietly listened to Butler Zhao's report, her expression fluctuating.
Mrs. Xie's heart disease has always been about her son's lifelong event, but her son has such a physique that women avoid her son in fear, and now there is a woman who wants to die.
Even if she was the fiancée of her adopted grandson.
The Fourth Miss of the Jiang family was born in the second bedroom of Changning Bo's Mansion, and her family background and appearance are all good. If she can really resist her son's evil spirit... a flash of emotion flashed in Mrs. Xie's eyes.
She is just a mother, as long as her son is accompanied by a wife in this life, the adopted grandson and the so-called etiquette are not as important as her own son.
Huang Momo is Mrs. Xie's confidant, the wife of Steward Zhao, and was once Mrs. Xie's dowry maid. She knows Mrs. Xie best, seeing the old lady's expression, she said hastily.
"Old madam, why don't you quietly take Miss Jiang Si's birthday horoscope to the eminent monk and calculate it. If it matches the horoscope of the Duke, it is not a bad idea to change this marriage."
Mrs. Xie took a sip of the tea soup lightly, her expression became more emotional.
"You're right, it doesn't hurt to try."
Steward Zhao secretly heaved a sigh of relief, took out the Geng Tie that he had prepared a long time ago from his sleeve, handed it up respectfully, and said, "Madam, this is Miss Jiang Si's Geng Tie."
Originally, the Geng Tie was to be returned for retiring the engagement, but the Changning House had not formally agreed to the divorce, so Jiang Ningbao's Geng Tie was naturally not returned.
Mrs. Xie nodded, with a look of anticipation in her eyes, and motioned for Madam Huang to put away the Geng post.
"Old madam, there is one more thing. The eldest lady of Changning Bo's mansion just sent someone over to raise a little more condition." Zhao Butler thought of Mrs. Changning Bo's confidant who had just sent away, and once again sympathized with Miss Jiang Si, whose parents both died.
"What conditions?"
"Mrs. Changning Bo hopes that her youngest daughter can marry Master Xie Jinghui, the second son of the second wife of the Xie family." Housekeeper Zhao replied respectfully. He didn't have any good feelings for Mrs. Changning Bo who was stepping on Miss Jiang Si to take advantage.
Mrs. Xie raised her head abruptly, frowned, and said indifferently: "I won't get involved in this matter, you tell the son and let him handle it himself."
In the final analysis, it was her grandson who insisted on retiring, so the subsequent troubles should be resolved by himself.
Mrs. Xie originally liked this adopted grandson very much, and she was also a direct descendant of the Xie family. She loved him very much, and she even indulged the servants in the mansion to call him the son of the world, but who knew that he did it for An Yuanhou's son? Mrs. Xie couldn't accept that the eldest lady resigned from her marriage with the Fourth Miss of the Jiang family. Mrs. Xie knew exactly how the grandson's marriage was settled, so she couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable with him.
When a woman is divorced, etiquette has always been harsh on women. The woman who has been divorced is either married at will, or sent to the family temple to be strangled and become an aunt.
What happiness is there in the future
Especially for a woman whose parents have both died, even though she still has a good brother, but she has not yet stood up, and the eldest lady of the Changningbo Mansion is a shrewd and snobbish person, one can imagine that Miss Jiang's future is worrying.
But the Duke's Mansion needs him to inherit it after all.
Mrs. Xie could only turn one eye and close one eye, help him deal with the aftermath, make up for that Miss Jiang Si as much as possible, and secretly hope that Miss Jiang Si will be compatible with her son, lest her grandson ruin her life.
"Steward Zhao, please don't let your son know about the conditions proposed by Fourth Miss Jiang. Presumably there will be no news that Fourth Miss Jiang will marry my son from Changningbo's residence."
Mrs. Xie finally couldn't help exhorting, she didn't want Miss Jiang Si to be criticized at this time, even if Miss Jiang Si and her son's horoscope did not match in the end.
Steward Zhao immediately complied without telling Shizi.
The matter turned out to be as Mrs. Xie thought. Neither Mrs. Jiang nor Mrs. Zhang thought about spreading Jiang Ningbao's unscrupulous words.
So the outside world only knows the news that Steward Zhao from Dingguo's mansion came to the door to withdraw the marriage for the eldest son.
Even the male protagonist Xie Jingyi didn't know that his fiancée proposed to divorce before him, but then let him marry his adoptive father, Ding Guogong, without the slightest bit of nostalgia.
