Chapter 524: The Prefect gave the future princess a stone
Seeing that Qiu Niang's hand had already touched the wooden box, the housekeeper became anxious.
“Wait!”
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Wan's eyes looked innocent, but they made the housekeeper shudder with fear.
"These are all from the eldest master's heart. Miss, don't feel bad for him. Just move them into the warehouse first."
A painful expression appeared on his face, and Jiang Wan thought to herself, could it be that her guess was wrong?
No, with Jiang Wei's harmful personality, he would never be willing to give so many good things to himself.
So she insisted: "No, my brother loves me, I can't take it for granted."
As she spoke, she opened the nearest wooden box.
When everyone saw what was in the wooden box, they were shocked!
Because the wooden box that Jiang Wan opened was filled with stones.
Everyone:!!!
"Oh my god, the prefect gave the future princess a stone."
"How could it be a stone? Maybe it's silver?"
“It could be that they sent it to the wrong place.”
“…”
Jiang Wan smiled secretly in her heart, it was worth it for her to put on such a big show.
This Jiang Wei did not disappoint her.
She deliberately widened her eyes in horror, took a few steps back in disbelief, and muttered to herself.
"How...how could it be a stone?"
"This is too much!"
Qiu Niang supported Jiang Wan and turned to Song Jiuyuan and said:
"Your Highness, you have to make the decision for the young lady. The young lady thought that the eldest master really cared about his sister.
I didn't expect him to be even more shameless than the people in the Shangshu Mansion, humiliating the girl while building momentum."
Song Jiuyuan's face turned pale.
He was not pretending, he was truly angry. When he thought of the days Jiang Wan had spent in the Shangshu Mansion, he wished he could cut all those people into pieces.
"My Lord, that's not the case."
The housekeeper was sweating profusely, "This box must have been carried by mistake!"
"Song Yi, open the other boxes and have a look."
Song Jiuyuan gave them a plan for rebuttal, and the butler was so anxious that he almost broke his voice.
"no!"
"You said you lifted the wrong person. The prince gave you a chance to prove your innocence. Why are you so excited?"
Of course Jiang Wan knew what he was afraid of. He was afraid that Jiang Wei would not be able to gain a foothold in Jiuzhou.
But this is what Jiang Wan wants.
No matter how the butler tried to stop him, Song Yi still led his men to force open all the wooden boxes.
There were a total of twenty boxes to carry, and only the first few had some cloth placed symbolically.
Later on, there were stones or miscellaneous debris.
Jiang Wan was so angry that she laughed!
Jiang Wei really thought highly of her, using twenty boxes of garbage to create the illusion that they were very familiar with each other.
But it was also true that when he came to Jiuzhou to be the prefect, the way he could quickly get close to these officials was to first improve his relationship with Song Jiuyuan.
"Oh my god, it's really stone."
"How can the future princess have a brother like this?"
"He's not a biological brother, luckily he's not a biological brother. We really thought he was a good brother, but we didn't expect him to be so outrageous."
“…”
"Jiang Wei is awesome!"
Song Jiuyuan was furious. He pointed at the boxes of stones and said:
"Throw them all to Jiang Wei's warehouse!"
"My Lord, please listen to my explanation!"
The butler knelt down in front of Song Jiuyuan and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"The eldest son sincerely wants to repair his relationship with the eldest girl."
"fart!"
Qiu Niang couldn't help but swear, and acted as Jiang Wan's substitute, "My daughter has softened her heart and wants to restore the brother-sister relationship with him.
Look at what your young master has done. Does our young lady need someone to help her? You are still using stones to fool people.
Go away, and don't show up in front of my girl anymore!"
"roll!"
Qiu Yan even protected Jiang Wan and glared at the housekeeper fiercely.
"That's all."
Jiang Wan held the handkerchief tightly, looking sad, "I was just being sentimental after all.
It’s too late to undo what has been done. Tell your eldest son that we will be strangers when we meet in the future.”
"Our girl gave him a chance."
Qiu Niang snorted softly, supported the staggering Jiang Wan, her face full of heartache.
"Wanwan, I'll take care of this. You go in and rest first."
Song Jiuyuan took over the matter, and Jiang Wan walked into the mansion without looking back.
It was not until the people outside could no longer see them that Qiu Yan could not help but burst out laughing.
"Miss, you are so smart. Not only did you make Governor Jiang's efforts go in vain, but you also made him lose face and dignity."
"Jiang Wei is just like that. Others say you can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a lamb, but he is a miser who won't give a penny!"
Jiang Wan curled her lips in disdain, guessing that he thought she would not accept it.
They save face and make everyone think they are close, and there is no loss, so it's the best of all worlds.
Unfortunately, Jiang Wan wouldn't let him have his way!
After waiting patiently in the flower hall for a long time, Song Jiuyuan came in with another person, Cheng Jin.
Cheng Jin was holding a very large box in his hand and found a place to sit down casually.
"Jiang Wei is looking for trouble with you as soon as he comes to the city. The officials in the city are not stupid. I'm afraid he won't be able to complete the task in the short term."
Song Jiuyuan felt a little gloating. He thought that daring to attack Wanwan was still a light punishment.
"really."
Jiang Wan curled her lips. The poison she used was not so easy to recover from. Jiang Wei deserved to be tortured.
“The Second Prince is jumping up and down all day long, thinking that we don’t know he is in Jiuzhou.
Now with the addition of Jiang Wei, they are trying their best to squeeze me out."
Song Jiuyuan's face was full of sarcasm. Jiang Wan was a little surprised. "The Second Prince and the others haven't left yet?"
She remembered that Hua Xiao and the Second Prince's wife had a very unpleasant quarrel.
"He wants to win over the officials of Kyushu."
Song Jiuyuan said succinctly, "Don't worry, Wanwan, I've already made preparations."
"That's good."
Jiang Wan remembered that the Second Prince in the original book was not to be feared and that she was afraid that the Sixth Prince could be easily defeated.
But they are not the male protagonists, so it may not be that easy.
"Okay, stop talking about annoying things."
Cheng Jin placed the wooden box on the table and patted it hard.
“Guess what this is?”
"What good stuff did you get?"
Song Jiuyuan raised his eyebrows with interest, "You seem to have come to the wrong place to show your courtesy."
There was a strong hint of jealousy in his words. In order to do business, Cheng Jin did go to Jiang Wan very frequently.
However, Jiang Wan knew that his real intention was not to drink.
"What are you thinking, my Lord?"
Cheng Jin twitched his lips speechlessly, and said to Jiang Wan excitedly:
"This was sent by my second uncle, who asked me to hand it to you personally!"
"Sent by my second uncle?"
Jiang Wan's heart skipped a beat, and she already had a guess in her mind.
She stood up and walked over, opened the wooden box nervously, and was dumbfounded the next second.
Not only her, but everyone was shocked and Qiu Yan even raised her voice.
"So many banknotes?!"
The wooden box was filled with banknotes, which at first glance seemed to be tens of thousands.
"Calm down, calm down."
Cheng Jin coughed lightly and said to Jiang Wan, "Second Uncle said that this is the dividend you should have received last quarter.
As for the account book, it's still with me. You can check it anytime you have time."
