Chapter 56 The Wallflower Sister

"Is that so?"

Jiang Li looked at his two sisters with suspicion.

It didn't feel like they were lying, but something just didn't feel right.

However, goose.

Lin Xiangyin did not give Jiang Li any chance to ask further questions.

She calmly drank the last sip of tea, slowly looked at her son and spoke: "My son, you have worked hard. After you greet me, go back and have a rest. I still need to take Ningning and Rong'er out for a while."

"Where are you going?"

"National Master's Mansion!"

"What!!!"

Jiang Youning and Jiang Li's eyes widened immediately.

[No way, no way? I thought that Ice Face was joking. What about the agreement that we should not visit each other twice? What about courtesy? What about principles? 】

"The concierge brought the invitation this morning. The Imperial Master said that there was something he forgot to remind Ningning about. As for Rong'er, thank the young marquis for asking him to help predict her marriage."

Lin Xiangyin looked at the shocked faces of the children and answered their questions with a calm smile.

"He still dares to covet Rong'er after breaking off the engagement. He is so shameless!"

Hearing this, Jiang Li couldn't help but snorted coldly.

Fortunately, he was not present when the engagement was broken off, otherwise he would have beaten her up at the farewell banquet.

"That's right, Mom, it's really shameless to attend a farewell banquet. Why don't we just not go?"

[I'm sorry, my future brother-in-law. If I can slander you in exchange for not going to the Imperial Master's Mansion, I think I would be happy to do so.]

[Besides, is there any need to consider my sister's marriage? Won't she be free to choose whoever she likes in the future? ]

On the side, Jiang Wanrong felt warmed when she heard her sister's inner thoughts.

"Mom, if we go to the Imperial Master's Mansion, we have to owe him a favor, so why don't we just not go?"

"That's right."

Jiang Youning couldn't help but nod frantically, and secretly gave Jiang Wanrong a thumbs up.

[My sister is so awesome! Can I go out for some fresh air later? I still have a debt to pay off.]

Unexpectedly, Lin Xiangyin rarely listened to her daughter and made the final decision with a blow of her hammer.

"No! If you want to talk about owing someone a favor, the Imperial Master came down to help Ning Ning play the zither yesterday. This is also a favor. We have to go to his house and repay this favor."

Afterwards, she looked at Jiang Wanrong and spoke earnestly:

"Besides, our family is not so poor that we can't afford gifts. We don't recognize favors from people who pay us for fortune-telling. How can a high-ranking person like the Imperial Master come up to us and ask for favors?"

"Even if I really owe you a favor, being able to have the Imperial Master tell you about your fortune is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so Rong'er, you must not act recklessly. Mother is doing this for your own good."

"Then... let's go."

With just a few words, "Mom, this is for your own good," Jiang Wanrong instantly changed sides without any hesitation.

"That's settled, get ready to go!"

On the side, Jiang Youning was dumbfounded.

[Sister, my dearest sister, you betrayed me so quickly, didn't you? ]

[Even the grass on the wall needs the wind to fall down. Are you using the manual brakes to push yourself? ]

"Ningning, what mother said makes sense. If the Imperial Master hangs a piece of wood for me, it will also make mother and you feel at ease, right?"

Jiang Wanrong's face flushed slightly.

She likes her younger sister, but she also cherishes her mother's love. My younger sister should be able to understand her, right?

"Yeah, that's it."

Jiang Youning's little face showed a resolute expression as if he was ready to die bravely.

[Although seeing a dead ice cube is likely to bring bad things, but who made my sister love my mother? These two women are the apples of my eye. ]

[But then again, I went there and everyone was happy, so this should be considered as doing two good deeds a day, right? It doesn’t seem to be a loss~]

"Ningning, you're so nice. When we get back, I'll roast a rabbit for you, okay?"

Jiang Wanrong couldn't help but be amused by Jiang Youning, and reached out to touch her slightly drooping head.

"Roasted rabbit? Sister, you can also make this?"

Jiang Youning instantly became alert again.

[I almost forgot that my sister’s cooking skills are very versatile. She can grill meat that tastes amazing, and she can also cook meals that will send people straight to hell! ]

[I want the crispy golden one with cumin!!!]

[But... why do my sister's hands feel so warm? From childhood to adulthood, no one has ever comforted me like this. ]

"Well, my sister used to go hunting a lot, so she's pretty good at grilling."

Seeing that her sister's eyes had regained their spirit, Jiang Wanrong smiled gently and nodded, but also felt inexplicably distressed.

She has come to realize these days that although the people in the family are very nice, they are all careless. They only care about satisfying their sister's material needs, but don't pay much attention to her psychological care.

Jiang Wanrong decided to take good care of her sister in the future.

But...she only agreed with the first half of her sister's evaluation of her cooking skills.

Even though she can't cook, she shouldn't be willing to send people to hell, right?

No, she has to find an opportunity to cook a big table of delicious food to prove herself to her sister!

"Rong'er, in the end it is mother who is sorry for you."

Hearing that her daughter used to go out hunting often, Lin Xiangyin immediately began to feel distressed again.

"Mom, I actually had a pretty good life when I was away from home."

Jiang Wanrong's voice is soft.

She actually lived a very comfortable life, living with her master and senior sisters, with no worries about food and drink, and her life was actually much more colorful than it is now.

only……

Jiang Wanrong's eyes couldn't help but darken.

"Okay, okay, it's getting late, let's go out first."

Lin Xiangyin felt heartbroken enough, and she put on a satisfied smile as she looked at her two daughters in front of her.

~~~

On the way to the Imperial Master's Mansion, bored Jiang Youning grabbed a handful of melon seeds, and the three of them, mother and daughter, chattered in the carriage.

"Ningning, where do you get so many melon seeds? The flavor is different every time."

Jiang Wanrong felt that her sister seemed to have the characteristics of a hamster and could always come up with all kinds of food from her sleeves.

"I bought it. There is a new flavor. Do you want to try it, sister and mother?"

Jiang Youning blinked his eyes and grabbed out another handful.

[This is a new flavor produced by **, spicy, but I didn't dare to try it because I was afraid of making a mistake. ]

[My dear sister, you and our mother don't mind being guinea pigs, right? ]

Step on a landmine? Guinea pig?

Although these two words were unfamiliar, Jiang Wanrong's intuition told her that this was not a good idea.

But after all, it was given by my younger sister. What if I don’t make her sad?
