Chapter 286 If I were her, I would definitely cut my hair and become a nun
At first, no one knew that Jiang Wan was the former Princess Zhan. After all, not many people had seen Jiang Wan's true face.
For the sake of her beauty shop, Jiang Wan did not wear a veil today.
Therefore, Jiang Wan's beautiful appearance and Madam Song's attitude towards her made everyone feel a great sense of crisis.
However, Jiang Wan herself was so calm. She lifted her skirt gently and spoke softly.
"Madam, Li'er."
"Sister Wanwan."
Song Jiuli held Jiang Wan's arm, brought her in front of the girls and introduced her, "This is my good sister Jiang Wan."
"Hello."
The corners of Jiang Wan's mouth were curved beautifully, making her already beautiful face even more alluring.
A group of little girls looked on in a daze, and nodded slightly to Jiang Wan, but they all had doubts in their hearts.
Who is this person? Why do the Song family mother and daughter think so highly of her, or is she the future princess they have chosen?
So everyone acted as if they were facing a great enemy, and looked at Jiang Wan with more vigilance in their eyes.
While everyone was complaining, Song Jiuli had already brought Jiang Wan into the palace.
During this period, Madam Song managed the palace in an orderly manner and transplanted many plum trees.
There are even many potted plants of different sizes in the yard, all of which are filled with beautiful plum blossoms.
It seems that the lady has put in a lot of effort. Even Jiang Wan, a layman, was stunned.
In the garden, some wives of officials who had arrived earlier were now admiring the flowers.
Madam Song smiled gently, "I carefully selected these plum blossoms, you can enjoy them at will."
When the little girls heard this, they ran excitedly into the plum forest and admired the plum blossoms in a serious manner.
But everyone kept looking outside the yard from time to time, which made Song Jiuli complain irritably.
"Don't think I don't know what they are thinking. They are just thinking about Big Brother."
Jiang Wan: ...
The smile on her lips faded, and before she could speak, Madam Song on the side scolded her:
"Li'er, be careful with your words!"
"Mother!"
Song Jiuli stamped her feet, pouted in grievance, and said with Jiang Wan in her arms:
"Sister Wanwan, none of them can surpass your position in my heart."
Jiang Wan just smiled gently, but Madam Song on the side was not idle. She pulled the wife of the magistrate aside to chat.
While they were talking, a group of men came in from a garden not far away. The people of Dafeng were open-minded and the separation between men and women was not particularly strict.
The leader was Song Jiuyuan, followed by Song Jiuchi, Duan Xian and others. Jiang Wan didn't know the others very well.
Song Jiuli chattered softly in Jiang Wan's ear, "Those are all sons of officials.
Actually, my eldest brother doesn’t really like dealing with these things, but there’s nothing he can do about it.”
"Um."
Song Jiuyuan did not bring those people over, but was admiring the flowers on the other side of the garden.
Hearing the men's voices, the girls no longer had the mood to appreciate the flowers and they all glanced at the people over there.
Even Song Jiuli couldn't help but look at Duan Xian frequently, which made Mrs. Song so angry that her face looked a little gloomy.
But because there were so many people present, nothing happened.
After a while, Song Jiuyuan led the men into the inner room, and the girls watched them go away reluctantly.
Mrs. Song also led the ladies into the flower hall first, leaving the little girls to play on their own.
"Ah, I remember now, she is the former princess."
I don’t know who exclaimed, but everyone’s eyes fell on Jiang Wan.
Jiang Wan followed the direction of the voices and saw a girl in green hiding in the crowd.
This person turned out to be one of the girls they rescued before entering the city. I guess Ye Huan mentioned her to her, so he recognized her.
Suddenly, the girls looked at Jiang Wan with subtle eyes, including jealousy, contempt, and disdain.
"Hasn't she divorced the prince? Why is she still coming to the palace?"
"If I were her, I would have cut my hair and become a nun long ago. I wouldn't have the face to come out."
"That's right, an abandoned person is still dressed so brightly and beautifully."
"Isn't she here to look for a new partner?"
“…”
Jiang Wan heard a little discussion. She looked indifferent, but Song Jiuli had a cold face.
She was about to stand up, but was pulled back by Jiang Wan, "Li'er, don't get excited."
"Sister Wanwan, I don't allow them to say that about you!"
Song Jiuli was very angry. She stood up suddenly and was about to speak, but someone spoke before her.
"Shut up, you guys, you only know how to point fingers at others behind their backs. Miss Jiang is divorcing the prince.
This is not something shameful, is it worth it for you to go to such great lengths to ruin her reputation? "
This is Xu Ningyan, the eldest daughter of Xu Tongzhi. Because Jiang Wan saved them, she has always been grateful to Jiang Wan and the Song family.
"Ningyan is right."
Song Jiuli gave Xu Ningyan a grateful look and continued, "Besides, it was Sister Wanwan who proposed the divorce.
It was my elder brother who didn't care enough about her before, not what you guys spread."
"How is it possible?!!"
The girl who spoke first exclaimed, and everyone looked over. When she reacted, she hurriedly covered her mouth.
"Okay, Duan Yue, it turns out you were the one spreading rumors!"
Xu Ningyan walked a few steps to Duan Yue. She was wearing a green dress, which was somewhat similar in color to Jiang Wan's dress.
If you ignore her guilty expression, she is actually a pretty girl.
She took a deep breath and said, "I didn't make up any rumors. These are what Ye Huan told me."
"You take the words of Ye Huan, the daughter of a guilty minister, seriously?"
Song Jiuli was very angry. She didn't expect that this person was sold at a low price and it would even affect Sister Wanwan's reputation.
"I……"
Duan Yue stammered and pursed her lips, the handkerchief in her hand was almost twisted into a knot.
"What are you...? Apologize!"
Song Jiuli put her hands on her hips, with an arrogant expression similar to her past.
Duan Yue looked for help at the girl not far away who was as clear and cold as the white snow, but unfortunately the girl didn't even look back at her.
The subtle exchange of glances made Jiang Wan realize that Miss Duan Yue was probably being used as a pawn by someone.
Duan Yue could only plead with Song Jiuli: "Miss Song, can you please do it for my brother's sake..."
Oh, she is Duan Xian’s sister. She thought that since Song Jiuli admired her brother so much, she might take him into consideration.
However, Song Jiuli didn't listen at all, and said very confidently:
"Your brother is such a gentle person. If he knew that you were gossiping like a gossip girl, he would definitely make you apologize!
The Duan family couldn't raise a girl as rude as you, right?"
"Miss Song is right, apologize to Miss Jiang!"
Xu Ningyan also pulled Duan Yue. She could only purse her lips reluctantly and whispered to Jiang Wan:
"I'm sorry, Miss Jiang."
She really couldn't care about the Duan family's reputation, as her brother was still waiting to become the prince's brother-in-law.
"What are you sorry for?"
Jiang Wan glanced at the pale-faced Duan Yue in front of her with a half-smile, as if she was the vicious female supporting role who was making things difficult for others.
Feeling the contempt and even disgust in everyone's eyes, Duan Yue could only bite the bullet and say:
"I shouldn't have slandered Miss Jiang casually. I'm sorry."
