"Scared?" Jiang Mingzhi deliberately repeated the word, then stared at Jiang Yuzhen with amusement, "Could it be that your eldest sister hurt you in some way that made you so nervous?"
It was just one sentence, but it still made Jiang Yuzhen feel a chill on her back, as if she had been seen through.
But she couldn't admit defeat. After all, Jiang Mingzhi couldn't produce any evidence to prove that she did it. In that case, what right did she have to say that she did it?
Thinking of this, Jiang Yuzhen immediately calmed down. She couldn't lose her composure.
"What are you talking about, eldest sister? We are all sisters, there is no harm or no harm."
She tried hard to look Jiang Mingzhi in the eye, but when she met those beautiful eyes that were clearly smiling, she felt a fear as if she was facing a cold pool in the mountains. Those were not the eyes of a young girl filled with spring water, but the ice that had not melted for years.
After all, Jiang Mingzhi was not really a girl in her teens. Facing Jiang Yuzhen's fierce appearance but weak inner behavior, she had already seen through what she was thinking.
In the past, the eldest daughter Jiang Mingzhi was a fool who allowed herself to be bullied, but Zhou Suihuan was never a soft persimmon. She did not cause trouble, but she was definitely not someone who was afraid of trouble.
Seeing the fear in Jiang Yuzhen's heart, she suddenly grinned, leaned close to her sister Jiang Yuzhen's ear, and chuckled in a voice only the two of them could hear, "Of course I was joking, but third sister, there are some things that you should just not do. If you do, it's best to do it perfectly. Otherwise, if you let it slip, it won't be good for you."
Those slow and steady words sounded like a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue to Jiang Yuzhen's ears. The hissing sound alone was enough to scare people to death.
Jiang Yuzhen was suddenly horrified and stared at Jiang Mingzhi with wide eyes, as if she was not looking at a person, but a monster!
"Were you pretending to be stupid all along?!"
If he really was a fool who had been demented for more than ten years, his mind should also be extremely dull. But what Jiang Mingzhi showed now was completely different from what she had imagined. What went wrong?
A thought popped up in her mind: Jiang Mingzhi must have been pretending. She has not been a fool at all these years!
Jiang Mingzhi didn't expect Jiang Yuzhen to ask such a stupid question, and he suddenly found it a little funny.
After all, she was still young and panicked when something happened. She didn't even think about the fact that if Jiang Mingzhi wasn't really stupid, how could he be bullied to such an extent?
But she would not tell Jiang Yuzhen this. She would let Feng and Jiang Yuzhen know what the consequences would be if they angered her!
Feng is so intolerant, so don't blame her for doing things in an ugly way.
She put away the smile on her lips, and her pair of auspicious eyes suddenly revealed a hint of murderous intent. Jiang Yuzhen no longer dared to say anything. Finally, Jiang Mingzhi looked at Jiang Yusu meaningfully, then slowly turned and left.
Jiang Yushu's eyes turned red and she was about to cry.
She tied the purse to Jiang Mingzhi herself. If Jiang Mingzhi wanted to settle accounts, he would definitely not let her go.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yushu felt a pang of fear and looked at Jiang Yuzhen for help.
Jiang Yuzhen was also in a state of disarray. She hadn't expected Jiang Mingzhi to find out about this so quickly. What should she do now? Judging from Jiang Mingzhi's expression, he wouldn't give up easily.
She wanted to discuss it with her mother, but it was not the right time. She was already feeling irritated, and when she met Jiang Yushu's terrified look, her fair face turned pale with fear, and the words "I did something bad" were almost written on her forehead.
Jiang Yuzhen suddenly burst into a rage, unable to suppress it, and cursed viciously in a low voice: "You motherless bastard, I'm warning you, if you say a word about this, I'll make you pay!"
Jiang Yushu bit her lip and dared not speak.
Walking slowly in the wild peach forest, Jiang Mingzhi felt indescribably complicated.
I guess everyone thinks that Princess Jin Zhou Suihuan is dead. Who would have thought that she would return to this place today?
Seeing that no one was around, Qingtang leaned over to Jiang Mingzhi and asked in a low voice, "Miss, how do you plan to deal with this matter?"
She felt that since the Third Young Lady dared to be so vicious and harmful, she should expose it and let the Marquis punish her. If that didn't work, she should make a big fuss. She couldn't just swallow her anger and suffer the loss in silence!
Jiang Mingzhi knew what was going on, "There's no need to rush now."
Her firm voice made Qingtang feel relieved. The young lady now was no longer the same young lady as before. She must have her own plans in mind. Anyway, she would just listen to the young lady's orders when the time came.
Jiang Mingzhi was thinking about how to give Feng the most painful blow in this matter. If she just knelt in the ancestral hall for a day without any pain, then all the suffering she had endured would be in vain.
The Feng family has been operating in the Jinyi Marquis Mansion for many years and has deep roots. It is wishful thinking for her to overthrow the Feng family with just this one incident.
However, Qingtang is the only person she can trust at the moment, so she still needs to have a good talk with her about this matter.
Thinking of this, Jiang Mingzhi simply explained: "Qingtang, don't make this matter public for now. I'm afraid that if Yushu is involved, and a sudden incident occurs, I'm afraid we will be the ones who suffer."
"Third Miss?"
Qingtang frowned, "The Third Miss and the Young Miss are born of the same mother and are blood relatives. How could she harm the Young Miss?"
Yes, how could she be harmed by her closest relative? Jiang Mingzhi raised his lips with a bitter smile.
There is a difference between close and distant relatives, and people are always hard to guard against their closest relatives. But who would have thought that sometimes the one who stabs you with the fatal knife is often that closest relative?
Closing his eyes, the boundless bitterness in his heart came back to him. Jiang Mingzhi shook his head and put aside all the messy thoughts in his mind.
Now was not the time to be sentimental, she had too much to do.
Qingtang suddenly thought of something and whispered to Jiang Mingzhi, "Miss, last time you asked for the unused firecrackers from the New Year, the steward came to ask the little maid twice, but no one knew it was our courtyard that took them. You can rest assured."
Jiang Mingzhi nodded without saying anything more.
At some point, she walked further and further away, and when she came to her senses, there was no one around her.
Qingtang also realized what was happening and sighed with a bit of amusement, "You've forgotten the way while talking. Miss, let's go back. It's getting late. From what Madam said, she won't be having dinner at the palace."
The wedding at Prince Jin's Mansion started in the morning, so the guests would be entertained for two meals.
Ordinary families usually marry their principal wife in the afternoon, which means the wedding will be held at the same time. Today, Prince Jin's Mansion is marrying a concubine, which is different from marrying a principal wife.
Jiang Mingzhi nodded. When the master and servant were about to find their way back, they suddenly saw a figure coming towards them.
Judging from his attire, he was a muscular young man. There were many people in Prince Jin's Mansion today, so it was common to meet men from other families. Qingtang supported Jiang Mingzhi and moved sideways to avoid him. However, as soon as she turned around, she felt a chill on the back of her neck, and her vision went dark, and she lost consciousness instantly.
