Chapter 088: Are You Born Silencers?

The head of the Jiang family works in the Ministry of Revenue.

Although his rank is not as high as his father's, he makes a lot of money.

However, the Wen family has a century of heritage that the Jiang family cannot compare to.

The sixtieth birthday of the old lady of the Jiang family.

It was a very successful event.

Needless to say, the dishes include all kinds of birds and beasts, delicacies from mountains and seas.

They also invited the head chef from Qingfenlou, the best restaurant in Beijing, to take charge of the cooking.

The Jiang family's mansion is also decorated with flowers and is full of ingenuity.

The garden in the inner courtyard is breathtakingly beautiful with every step.

Early in the morning, the maids and servants were busy as hell.

Wen Yan went there with Jiang Xinkui.

As soon as she got off the carriage, the mistress of the Jiang family, who was also Jiang Xinkui's sister-in-law, came out to greet her.

The aunt and sister-in-law held hands and exchanged warm greetings.

Wen Yan got off the carriage and put on the gorgeous clothes that Jiang Xinkui specially prepared for her.

Standing behind Jiang Xinkui, adorned with jewels.

The young ladies of the Jiang family exchanged glances.

Someone deliberately asked Jiang Xinkui, "Aunt, why didn't Cousin Ruyue come with you?"

"Your cousin is married, so she's naturally coming with her husband."

“Oh, I see.

They are all getting married, and biological daughters who live just one street away can’t get along, but cats and dogs who live two hundred miles away can stick together.”

As the third young lady of the Jiang family spoke, she fanned her nose with a handkerchief.

It was as if Wen Yan was some dirty thing.

Miss Jiang San is only one year younger than Wen Yan. She has always loved to compete with Wen Yan since she was a child, but she is inferior to Wen Yan in everything.

Now that Wen Yan is in such a bad state, she will of course take the opportunity to avenge her previous humiliation.

At this time, guests have arrived one after another.

After hearing what Miss Jiang San said, he looked over here frequently.

Wen Yan's face darkened. "It seems that a nobody's adopted daughter like me is truly unworthy of the Jiang Mansion. I'll take my leave then."

After Wen Yan finished speaking, he turned and left.

Jiang Xinkui and Jiang Dasao's expressions changed.

Both of them knew Wen Yan's purpose in coming here, and they couldn't let her leave.

The two of them came together to try to keep Wen Yan, but Wen Yan glanced at Miss Jiang San and refused to give in.

Mrs. Jiang had no choice but to scold Miss Jiang San: "Why don't you apologize to your cousin Wen Yan quickly?"

"Why? I didn't do anything wrong. I won't apologize." Miss Jiang San was so angry that her eyes turned red.

It’s okay that I was suppressed by Wen Yan before.

Now Wen Yan has become a village woman, why should I apologize to her?

"Alas, it seems that the Jiang family does not welcome me." Wen Yan turned and left.

Mrs. Jiang was furious and twisted Miss Jiang's arm hard.

Miss Jiang San was in so much pain that she burst into tears.

Under her mother's warning eyes, she could only lower her head with tears in her eyes and squeeze out a mosquito-like murmur: "I'm sorry."

Wen Yan pressed her ears: "What did you say? It's too quiet, I can't hear you."

Miss Jiang gritted her teeth, glared at Wen Yan fiercely, closed her eyes and shouted, "I'm sorry! I shouldn't have said that to you just now."

"Since you sincerely repent, I will forgive you." Wen Yan said, and walked towards the Jiang Mansion.

When passing by Miss Jiang San, she lowered her voice and said provocatively: "Look, even if you are the Third Miss of the Jiang family, you have to bow to a village woman like me!"

"You, ah..." Miss Jiang San was so angry that she went crazy.

By the time she realized she had made a fool of herself in public, it was too late.

She screamed and ran back to her yard.

Mrs. Jiang winked at several concubines.

The concubines immediately stepped forward and surrounded Wen Yan as she entered the house.

"Why is Wen Yan like a different person? She speaks in a sarcastic tone and isn't as sensible and well-behaved as before."

Mrs. Jiang was furious.

Although she had a smile on her face, her voice came out from between her teeth.

Miss Jiang took Wen Yan with her and did not go to the garden specially set up to receive female guests.

Instead, he took her into a flower hall.

She was accompanied by several illegitimate daughters of the Jiang family to talk and chat, and was not allowed to contact anyone at all.

With Wen Yan's current status, she would only become the subject of gossip and laughter if she went out, so she naturally wouldn't make herself suffer.

until……

There was a commotion outside.

It turned out that Wen Ruyue had arrived.

She was surrounded by people like a star, and they kept praising her, saying compliments one after another as if they were free.

"The material of the Crown Prince's wife's dress must be made of the tribute satin given by the palace!"

"This headpiece seems to be the most valuable treasure in the Treasure Pavilion! When worn by the Crown Prince's wife, it makes the headpiece even more elegant and luxurious."

"Sister Ruyue is already pretty..."

Wen Ruyue was flattered.

Some people simply praise Wen Ruyue, while others praise her while criticizing her.

The one who was stepped on was naturally Wen Yan.

Some people said: "No matter how noble Wen Yan used to be, she was not even one thousandth as noble as the Crown Prince's Consort."

"She is now a phoenix without feathers, worse than a chicken. She is not even worthy of carrying the shoes of the Crown Prince's Consort."

"You don't have a life worth a fortune, but you do have a lot of illnesses worth a fortune..."

Crunch...

Wen Yan opened the window and looked at the people outside with a smile.

He was caught red-handed while gossiping about others.

Those people avoided looking at Wen Yan, not daring to meet her gaze.

Wen Yan supported her chin with one hand and asked them with a smile: "Why don't you say anything?

Is it that sisters are naturally quiet? "

Those people blushed with embarrassment and lowered their heads.

When Wen Ruyue saw her dog being bullied, she immediately stood up for justice: "Wen Yan, we are all good friends. Why are you being so aggressive? It makes you look uneducated."

"Elder sister is right, I was too aggressive." Wen Yan apologized sincerely.

Wen Ruyue wanted to scold her, but decided to let her go for the time being.

After all, today she has to clarify the matter of the wedding dress, restore her father's reputation, and reinstate him to his original position.

Although she married into a powerful family, she also knew that the more powerful her family was, the more status and confidence she would have in the Marquis's Mansion.

Unexpectedly, Wen Yan asked sincerely, "Eldest sister, is it considered polite to gossip about others behind their backs?"

Wen Yan was almost about to point at their noses and call them gossips.

The women were so ashamed and angry that they covered their faces and ran away crying.

Wen Ruyue also left in anger.

The concubines of the Jiang family looked at each other in bewilderment.

The host Wen Yan became cautious and polite, not daring to say a single provocative word.

After a while, it gradually became quiet outside.

Nanny Jiang came over personally and took Wen Yan to the banquet for the female relatives.

At this time, the birthday ceremony has ended and the banquet has officially begun.

Her position was arranged to be next to Jiang Xinkui.

As soon as Wen Yan sat down, Jiang Xinkui couldn't wait to wink at Jiang Dasao.

Sister Jiang immediately walked over to Wen Yan and took her hand affectionately: "Wen Yan, even though you're married, you must visit us often in the future."

This was a message to her, asking her to clarify quickly.

Wen Yan also wanted to make a quick decision, so he followed her words and said, "If my father and mother treat me well, and my grandmother treats me well, I will naturally come often."

Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, she heard a woman sneer: "If you really think the Jiang family is good, why didn't you show up to celebrate the old lady's birthday just now?"
