"Yeah." Jiang Qingyao responded.
“…” Li’s nose was crooked with anger.
The eldest daughter of the Jiang family is so arrogant. She is just a legitimate daughter of a poor family, but she really thinks she is a big shot?
Marquis Anguo has no intention of getting married and will definitely cancel the engagement. She can only wait to be slapped in the face!
"Why is it so lively?" A low and cold voice suddenly sounded.
For a moment, the atmosphere froze and the hall became quiet.
Everyone looked at He Zheng at the same time, each with a different expression.
A hint of surprise flashed across Jiang Qingyao's eyes. Marquis Anguo was such a powerful figure in the He family?
As soon as he appeared, everyone held their breath and became silent.
Li, who had been arrogant and scolding her just now, was clearly fidgeting and as obedient as a quail.
He Zheng's gaze fell on Jiang Qingyao's face. The little girl tilted her head slightly, and a hint of curiosity appeared on her pretty face.
Staring at people straightly, as if he has no sense of shyness at all.
It’s no wonder that others became restrained for a moment. Even Jiang Yisong was shocked by the power of Marquis Anguo and became more cautious.
Although the other party was obviously younger than him, Jiang Yisong still felt inferior to Marquis Anguo and could not display the dignity of an elder at all.
"Greetings, Lord Marquis." Jiang Yisong called respectfully and greeted him with his two daughters.
He is the Marquis of Anguo!
From the moment the man came in, Jiang Shuning's eyes were always on He Zheng.
She never expected that the Marquis of Anguo looked so young, probably only about twenty-four or twenty-five, extremely handsome and noble.
Jiang Shuning's face flushed red with embarrassment, and her chest was pounding like a deer.
She is determined to get this man!
She wants to marry him instead of Jiang Qingyao!
"My Lord~" Her voice was soft and delicate.
He Zheng didn't even notice her. He went straight to the main seat and sat down. He glanced at everyone with an indifferent look, "Tell me what's going on."
this……
Jiang Yisong made the proposal under pressure, and he was already thinking of backing out.
The pressure is huge!
After hearing this, He Zheng turned his head and looked at Jiang Qingyao, "What do you think?"
Jiang Qingyao frowned, "Not good."
"Just now, the eldest lady wanted me to be the prince's concubine, but I refused."
This little bitch!
He actually exposed her in front of her.
Li cursed in her heart. She didn't expect that Jiang Qingyao, a junior, would be so disrespectful to her.
She gritted her teeth, suppressing her anger and said, "I was just thinking about you, looking for a good home. Otherwise, no family would dare to take someone like you."
Jiang Qingyao chuckled: "Being a concubine is a good fate? If it's so good, why doesn't the eldest lady become a concubine?"
Second Madam Tao, who had remained silent all this time, burst out laughing. It was rare to see her sharp-tongued and mean sister-in-law suffer a setback. She felt that Jiang Qingyao was really straightforward.
"Qingyao, how dare you!" Jiang Yisong scolded with a stern face, "Hurry up and apologize to the Madam. You are really outrageous."
Jiang Qingyao said calmly, "I'm not wrong."
"You!" Jiang Yisong really wanted to slap her, but because the He family was there, he couldn't do it.
"I also think the proposal is not good. The little girl is right. If you think that being a concubine is a good choice for you, I will have you give me a letter of divorce tomorrow. Then I can take you as my concubine. Is that okay?"
There was a calmness in He Zheng's deep eyes, but his tone was as cold as an ice cave.
After hearing these words, Li was dumbfounded, her face suddenly changed, her heart was beating wildly with fear, and a layer of cold sweat seeped out of her back.
"Third, Third Brother, don't joke with me!"
Tao was also shocked.
Let the uncle divorce Li? This move is cruel enough, it will kill Li and destroy her heart.
Madam He glared at her son and gave Li a way out. "Alright, alright, this talk of divorce is just a joke."
It was the first time she saw her son say such harsh words to his family, and with He Zheng's temper, he was a man of his word, so he really did it.
He actually defended the little girl from the Jiang family to this extent, it seems there is hope!
Madam He couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth slightly.
He is indeed a good man.
Jiang Qingyao's heart trembled, but she remained calm.
He Zheng said coldly, "Sister-in-law is really powerful as the head of the household. She even interferes with my marriage."
Li had a bad feeling, and her lips trembled as she said, "No, I'm just worried that something ominous has entered the house and affected the Marquis's mansion..."
"How can the fortune of the Marquis's Mansion be influenced by one person?" He Zheng interrupted her coldly, "Sister-in-law is too foolish and unfit to be the head of the household."
Tao's face lit up with joy.
The opportunity has come!
After waiting for so long, it is finally her turn to be the head of the family.
Li's chest was heaving violently, she could hardly breathe, and she regretted it to the core.
Old Madam He would not interfere. Li had indeed been in charge of the family for too long and had become a little arrogant and more presumptuous. She deserved a lesson.
It would be fine if the power of managing the household was given to the second wife.
As he was thinking this, he heard He Zheng's voice as white as snow, "How about leaving it to Miss Jiang?"
“…”
Everyone was stunned, even Jiang Qingyao's pretended calmness was shattered.
What?! Let her be the housekeeper? In charge of all the affairs of the mansion?
She's not even married yet, and she's about to take over the reins of the Marquis's mansion? Is there something wrong?
Jiang Yisong was completely confused. It was unheard of for a mistress to gain the power to be the head of the household before marrying into the family. Jiang Qingyao would be the first one to go to Beijing.
Marquis Anguo actually values her to this extent?
This made him seem like a complete fool for coming here to ask for a replacement marriage.
Li's voice was filled with sorrow. "How can we allow a girl who hasn't even married into the family to be in charge of the Marquis's residence? Third brother, please be careful."
The power to lead the family that was about to be in her mouth flew away. Mrs. Tao's face turned pale, she was surprised and disappointed, and could only ask Madam He for help, "Mother, look..."
