Xiaoyu loves to eat cats “Miss Fourth, it’s dangerous!”
"Girl, be careful!"
Chunxi next to her was shocked and threw herself forward to block the arrow.
Jiang Ningbao did not expect that someone would commit murder in public, so she reacted quickly and calmly, avoiding the short arrow attack with neat movements. However, the curtain on her head was accidentally touched by Chunxi who rushed towards her, and fell to the ground. The delicate, soft and beautiful face under the curtain was revealed.
The woman's skin is as white as snow, and her facial features are soft and flawless, especially the hint of timidity and weakness unconsciously revealed between her eyebrows, which makes people feel pity for her.
Most of the onlookers were men. When they saw Jiang Ningbao's appearance, their eyes widened, full of surprise and pity. Many people felt a sense of guilt in their hearts, especially those who commented that Miss Jiang Ningbao was ugly and ugly. The salt people all blushed at the first moment and were extremely ashamed.
What about the promise of being ugly and without salt?
Jiang Ningbao did not expect to reveal her true appearance in public. Seeing everyone's reaction, her eyebrows frowned slightly, and her beautiful eyes glared coldly at the culprit not far away.
A young man in brocade clothes was sitting on a horse, holding a large purple bow in his hand and giving her a proud smile.
This young man is about in his early twenties, with red lips and white teeth, a handsome face, and all the exquisite and expensive accessories on his body, which all reveal that the other person has an extraordinary family background.
After Jiang Ningbao glared at him, he saw that Chunxi had already gotten up from the ground. He looked around at the crowd watching the excitement, frowned slightly and said, "Chunxi, let's get on the carriage." After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the carriage.
The two guards were afraid of another accident and rode their horses to protect Jiang Ningbao.
When a weak and beautiful woman is angry, she will always give people a feeling of coquettishness, which not only attracts men's pity, but also arouses their desire to conquer.
Jiang Ningbao’s appearance is the best among them.
So Jiang Ningbao rarely gets angry. Even if she is attacked in public this time, she just keeps the other person's appearance in mind and doesn't cause too many troubles.
However, things backfired. Jiang Ningbao didn't want to provoke the other party, but the other party wanted to provoke her.
"Miss Jiang Si, wait!" The clear voice of the young man in gilded clothes behind him was followed by his escorts swarming up and surrounding Jiang Ningbao's carriage.
As soon as the handsome young man spoke, he attracted the attention of the onlookers who were forced to retreat.
Someone recognized the young man's identity and exclaimed: "It's the young prince of Prince Rui's Mansion."
Chunxi's face suddenly turned pale, and her face was full of anxiety. She asked in confusion: "Oh my God, it turns out to be the young prince of Prince Rui. Girl, what should I do?"
The reputation of the young prince of Prince Rui's house is as thunderous as thunder.
Jiang Ningbao also heard this voice. It turned out that the young man in Jinyi was Xiao Ran, the young prince of Prince Rui. She frowned slightly. Everyone in the capital knew the name of the young prince of Prince Rui.
The little prince Xiao Ran’s biggest hobby in his life is to collect beauties of all kinds.
It is said that there are one hundred and seven beauties in his backyard.
"Take advantage of each other."
Jiang Ningbao secretly thought that he was unlucky. He didn't expect that when he came to the government office to cancel the marriage certificate, he would meet this young prince who loved beauties and had a collecting habit. He was so lucky.
She remembered that in the book, the young prince had a lot of interactions with the heroine Yang Shuqing. Later, he fell in love with the heroine and became the second best supporting actor. He changed his past style of always keeping beauties in the backyard and specialized in Collect women similar to the heroine.
"There are rumors that Miss Jiang Si is ugly and unsalient. Now that I have seen her, the rumors are misleading and unbelievable. Miss Jiang Si is clearly a rare beauty. She and Miss Yang each have their own beauty."
The young prince Xiao Ran put away the bow and arrow in his hand and rode his horse over. His beautiful peach blossom eyes looked at the fragile beauty not far away with interest. He was extremely satisfied. This Miss Jiang Si suits him so well. Got an appetite.
"I wonder if Miss Jiang Si is willing to become my 108th concubine?"
This is what the young prince Xiao Ran said as soon as he spoke it. This has become his mantra and everyone in the capital knows it.
The concubine in the 108th room...
Jiang Ningbao’s face turned dark. She took a deep breath and said in a slightly angry voice, “Young Master, be careful what you say.”
This is an indirect acknowledgment of one's identity.
It’s okay not to admit it. If he fabricates a false identity, without the banner of Chang Ning Bo Mansion, this young prince will really be able to rob people in the street.
People who had doubts at first exploded.
It turns out that this frail beauty is really the ugly and shameless Miss Jiang Si as rumored.
"Miss Jiang Si, I am very sincere. If you are willing, I will immediately find a matchmaker to propose marriage tomorrow." Xiao Ran said to himself with a smile.
The more she looked at her, the more she felt that Miss Jiang Si, who was delicate and beautiful in appearance but tough in heart, was more to her liking than the bright and cheerful Miss Yang.
It's a pity that her family background is not enough, and she was rejected by Xie Jingyi, which damaged her reputation. Otherwise, he would definitely marry her and become his concubine.
The young prince who had read all the women sighed sadly.
When the onlookers heard what the young prince said, they were stunned and felt pity for Miss Jiang Si who was surrounded by people and fell in love with this giant Buddha.
What a bad luck.
In a secret corner of the government office, when no one was paying attention, a man in brocade robes, with a tall and slender figure, a face like a crown of jade, and a noble temperament, came. He was accompanied by a young boy in Tsing Yi.
"The Crown Prince is the Young Prince and Miss Jiang Si from Prince Rui's Mansion."
The handsome man in brocade robe looks at the weak and beautiful woman surrounded by the crowd.
After three years of not seeing her, she appears even more charming and charming, with a faintly unique temperament that belongs to her, and she shines with her own light.
When his eyes turned to Xiao Ran, the young prince, the handsome man couldn't help but frown, his eyes darkening slightly.
Jiang Ningbao, who was protected by two guards, has calmed down now. It is not easy to leave. If she is not careful, her reputation will be completely destroyed. It seems that she can only take the wrong approach. She has a countermeasure in mind. Jiang Ningbao He pursed his lips, raised his hand to touch the pearls on his temples, and chuckled.
"My young prince, do you know why I simply agreed to Xie Shizi to cancel the engagement?"
Most beauties are beautiful on the surface and lack temperament. Miss Jiang Si's beauty is down to the bone, and her temperament is even more unique, giving people a contradictory feeling. She can't conceal her elegance with every frown and smile.
The crowd of onlookers looked straight at him again.
In fact, this is because Jiang Ningbao has not restrained his edge.
She looks like a pitiful concubine, but her behavior and temperament can be changed. Now that her true appearance is suddenly exposed on this occasion, Jiang Ningbao has set her ultimate goal of marrying Duke Dingguo.
Of course we can no longer hide our clumsiness, our image must change.
The young prince Xiao Ran's eyes flashed with surprise. Hearing her words, he immediately became interested and asked enthusiastically: "Why, isn't it because that guy Xie Jingyi gave you a large sum of generous compensation?"
Hearing the young prince's straightforward words, the crowd of onlookers pricked up their ears, wanting to see how Miss Jiang Si would answer.
The man in a brocade robe in the corner had already noticed the changes in Jiang Ningbao's temperament, and suddenly felt as if he had never understood his ex-fiancée.
Especially after not seeing her for three years, I didn’t know she was so unique and different.
Now that he heard her suddenly mentioning the issue of breaking off the engagement, the handsome man in brocade robe unconsciously held his breath and rubbed the finger on his hand.
The confidant on the side was stunned when he saw this.
Is it possible that the prince still has a trace of nostalgia for Miss Jiang Si?
What about Miss Yang?
Jiang Ningbao raised the corners of her mouth slightly, raised her hand to flip her hair, and said shockingly: "Because I think my current fiancé's mother is more suitable, isn't it?"
Chunxi was shocked: "..."
Girl, how could a girl say such things in public?
The onlookers were stunned.
Did they hear it right? Miss Jiang Si actually said that she wanted to be the mother of Prince Xie, so... wouldn't that mean she wanted to marry Duke Dingguo?
Oh my God, what a big gossip.
Everyone was excited.
In the Dai Viet Dynasty, no one knew that Duke Dinh, despite his high position and great reputation, was a poisonous son-in-law in the eyes of women, and women were afraid to avoid him.
This Miss Jiang Si is really brave.
The handsome man in the corner froze, and a look of surprise and complexity passed through his eyes. He obviously did not expect that his ex-fiancée, whom he had rejected, would have such thoughts.
The confidant did not dare to look at the Crown Prince again this time. He did not expect that Miss Jiang Si... actually wanted to be the Crown Prince's mother.
Could it be that after the prince broke off the engagement, he suffered a huge blow and was shattered.
But... this is fine.
The young prince Xiao Ran's peach blossom eyes were wide open. He was obviously shocked and almost fell off his horse. He stared at Jiang Ningbao in disbelief.
"Miss Jiang Si, you...are you sure you are not joking?"
Jiang Ningbao suppressed her smile and looked quite serious.
"Young prince, I am not joking. Everyone knows that Prince Xie chose Miss Yang between me, his fiancée, and Miss Yang, which shows that Prince Xie and I are destined to be together."
"Besides, I have only met Prince Xie a few times. We have been keeping filial piety for the past three years and have never seen Prince Xie again. We cannot say that we have a deep relationship. Prince Xie is a good person and Miss Yang is unparalleled in love. The two of them are very close. It’s a match.”
The handsome man in the corner was silent.
"Miss Jiang Si is indeed reasonable, but what does this have to do with you saying that you want to be Xie Jingyi's mother? Is it possible that you want to marry Duke Ding just because you want Xie Jingyi to greet you and call you mother every day?"
The young prince Xiao Ran had never been used to seeing Xie Jingyi being pursued by a large group of noble ladies. He didn't know what he was thinking, and asked with a hint of excitement.
Good question, young prince!
They also want to know if this is the reason.
The onlookers raised their ears excitedly.
Oh my God, Miss Jiang Si is so brave. She wants Prince Xie to call her his mother.
The man in the brocade robe in the corner paused while stroking his finger. He stood up straight unconsciously and pursed his thin lips into a thin line.
About a quarter of an hour, Chunxi, who had gone to report the news, came back. When she saw several large boxes in the house, she felt a burst of joy on her face.
"Girl, are these compensations sent by the Duke's government?"
Jiang Ningbao gathered her thoughts and nodded with a smile: "Well, Chunxi, sort them out and put them in your private treasury." After saying that, she thought about it, got up and went to the inner room to take out a red whip, and casually placed it in the room. After a few swings, the movements were natural and vigorous.
"This whip is so easy to use."
Jiang Ningbao nodded with satisfaction. He had not used a whip for many years and his technique was not unfamiliar.
"Girl, why did you take out the whip?" Chunxi was busy arranging the things in the box, and his eyes widened slightly when he saw the girl flicking the whip.
"I thought about it and thought it would be safer to bring a whip with me when I go out in the future." Jiang Ningbao gently stroked the red whip with a faint smile on his lips.
She once promised her mother, Yang, that she would be a gentle and quiet lady, but now and then, her mother would definitely understand her when she comes back.
Today, Jiang Ningbao was inexplicably shot with a short arrow by the young prince, and Jiang Ningbao felt a sense of crisis again.
Who knows if she will encounter danger again in the future, especially since she is already taken care of by the heroine.
There is a whip beside you. If you are in danger, you can just swing the whip without having to do it yourself. No one knows whether this ancient man can touch porcelain.
Jiang Ningbao is not at all reassured by her fragile and beautiful appearance.
It's too tempting.
Chunxi couldn't help but think of the scene when the girl was nine years old, easily knocking down a big tree with a whip. She couldn't help but shudder. She shivered and said cautiously: "Girl, you are so It’s awesome, it doesn’t matter if you have a whip or not, who dares to bump into you without a long eye?”
If he hadn't seen the girl suddenly take out the red whip that had been dusted for many years, Chunxi would have been used to the girl's soft and frail appearance, and would have forgotten how ferocious the girl was when she was a child.
At that time, the second master, second wife, and third young master were hiding it together, so no one knew the girl’s secret.
"Be prepared for a rainy day. With a whip, I won't get my hands dirty." Jiang Ningbao said unhurriedly and put away the red whip.
Chunxi: "..."
Girls are always prepared for danger in times of peace.
But if I think about it carefully, what the girl said makes sense. It's really not safe to go out, especially the arrow I encountered today. If the girl hadn't reacted in time, I might have been injured.
At this time, the master and servant never thought that the young prince's purpose was just to find Jiang Ningbao's true appearance.
Who let the young prince get used to being overbearing and not taking the ordinary path?
Main courtyard
The eldest lady Zhang, who returned to the courtyard, was furious and kicked out the maids and women in the house, leaving only Grandma Yang alone. She threw the porcelain in the house to the floor, her face was so gloomy and scary.
"Madam, please calm down."
Nanny Yang was frightened. She looked at the fragments, water stains, and heartbroken blood all over the floor. These were all fine porcelain, but Madam actually dropped them on the floor.
If the old lady finds out, I'm afraid she will reprimand her for wasting money again.
"Bang!"
A glazed vase was smashed to pieces, and the flowers and water in the vase were scattered all over the floor.
"Calm down, why should I calm down? When I think that the compensation for several large boxes is all cheaper than that dead girl in the second room, I can't swallow this breath in my heart."
The eldest lady Zhang held her chest and panted heavily, roaring gloomily.
It was obviously the compensation she had negotiated with Prince Xie, but it all fell into the hands of the four girls. The old lady was also holding back, pretending to be generous, and the uncle even glared at her fiercely when he left. He blamed her for not doing good things, and now she is in some foxy house in the backyard.
Business comes and goes in vain.
Mrs. Zhang's heart was full of hatred. She was also the legitimate daughter of a declining noble family, but her parents' family could no longer make ends meet. The next few cannot be dismissed to maintain the dignity of the noble family.
My parents' family is too shabby, and Mrs. Zhang has no face, so she always has to give her a try.
The decline of the Changning House was due to the fact that there had not been a fourth-grade official or above for several generations. There was no shortage of money in the house. The deceased second brother was a business prodigy who earned tens of thousands of dollars for the house, as well as vast hectares of fertile land.
At the beginning, they also valued this. The second sibling Yang wanted to live in separate houses, but Zhang kept telling the old lady that it was best for full brothers to live together to help each other and benefit from each other.
As it turns out, she was right.
The life in the uncle's house is prosperous, and the food and clothing are better than ever.
After the death of the second brother and his wife, the financial power of the house was in the hands of the old lady. Mrs. Zhang did not dare to blatantly subsidize her parents' family. She also had two legitimate children. The eldest daughter-in-law was pregnant, and the pregnancy was a bit unstable. An eldest daughter who married into the Hou family needed her support, so she set her sights on Jiang Ningbao's compensation, specifically requesting two large boxes of gold as compensation.
Now because of the old lady’s words, everything is gone, except for the dead girl in the second room.
Ms. Zhang was so angry that she almost vomited blood.
"Madam, from the fifth rank official position to the uncle, the fifth girl is about to be engaged to the young master of the second brother-in-law of the Xie family. But something can't happen at this time. When the fifth girl's marriage is settled, you can deal with the fourth girl. It won’t be too late.” Aunt Yang was afraid that Madam would be impulsive and ruin things, so she quickly advised her with sincerity.
As soon as the eldest lady Zhang heard that Nanny Yang mentioned Yao'er, her anger immediately subsided a lot.
Yes, the top priority is to settle Yao'er's marriage first.
We will postpone the matter of cleaning up Jiang Ningbao until later.
"Mother Yang, pick a few smart and pretty maids to send to the west courtyard, so as not to let people say that our Chang Ning Mansion is harsh on the second-bedroom girl, and only has one maid around to serve her." Madam Zhang said gloomily.
"Brother Jin, who is in the second room, is also eighteen years old, and he doesn't have a maid who knows how to deal with people. It's my negligence as an aunt. Remember to send a few good-looking and capable maids to his yard."
When I woke up from my nap, I heard laughter and laughter coming from outside the yard.
Jiang Ningbao frowned slightly, got up from the bed, put on a coat, walked out of the room, and saw four pretty maids embroidering purses under the eaves, talking and laughing.
"Who are you and why are you in my yard?"
The four pretty maids heard an unpleasant question and looked up. It was the fourth girl. They quickly put away the sewing baskets in their hands and respectfully stepped forward and curtsied: "I have seen the fourth girl."
"The four slaves are the maids arranged by the eldest lady to serve the girl." One of the pretty maids with an apple face explained crisply. After that, the four of them introduced each other.
Each one has its own strengths, making it hard to fault.
Jiang Ningbao's eyes flashed, it turned out to be the maid arranged by the aunt.
Three years ago, her parents were 'disadvantaged'. She and the maids, wives, and boys in her eldest brother's courtyard all found other jobs and left the west courtyard. Her eldest uncle never cared about her.
Now, four maids were sent to serve her.
I guess there is something wrong inside.
But Jiang Ningbao couldn't refuse. As a direct daughter of the uncle's house, it was really too shabby to have only one maid to serve her, so she refused this time and the next time.
