Jiang Huanming was so frightened that he almost jumped up, but his legs were in severe pain.
He looked at Jiang Yisong in disbelief, "Father, I was the one who was beaten, why are you apologizing?"
I was originally waiting for my father to severely punish that bitch Jiang Qingyao!
Besides, this wasn't the first time he had insulted Jiang Qingyao, and he had done it so many times without any problem.
"It seems that my second brother doesn't think he did anything wrong." Jiang Qingyao rubbed his eyebrows. "Never mind. Marquis Anguo is a man of high moral character and a broad mind. He just married a bitch, so he won't take it to heart."
The corner of Jiang Yisong's mouth twitched: "..." You understand the meaning of sarcasm!
He patted Jiang Huanming's back vigorously and said, "Rebellious son, apologize to your elder sister, otherwise, don't blame your father for punishing you according to the family rules."
"Uncle..." Aunt Su felt sorry for her son and tears fell down.
Jiang Huanming trembled with fear, and said in a low voice, "Sister, I'm sorry. I was wrong. I shouldn't have said that. Please forgive me."
In a moment, Jiang Yisong quickly changed the subject, "Qingyao, thanks to the Jiuding Pills sent by the Marquis, your grandmother has gotten much better. She no longer vomits blood or coughs."
Jiang Qingyao thought that everything was fine. There was no magic medicine in her previous life. Her grandmother would recover in another half a month, but it would be a little harder.
"Go and thank the Marquis of Anguo."
"My daughter knows."
Jiang Shuning: "I want to go too!"
Xu suddenly said, "That's not right, Shu Ning, don't make things worse."
Jiang Shuning has no chance of getting a man that her precious daughter Xueer has no chance of getting.
Jiang Yisong saw through his third daughter's little thoughts and knew that she was still dreaming about Marquis Anguo, so he glanced at her with a warning in his eyes.
Jiang Shuning lowered her head, bit her lips, her eyes full of hatred and unwillingness.
How could she not compare to Jiang Qingyao? Why could Jiang Qingyao do it but she couldn't?
The next morning, Jiang Qingyao went out with the calming tea she had prepared.
It was still early, so Jiang Qingyao first went to the north city market for a walk. There were many vendors on the street and people coming and going.
She bought some of the food she liked at the restaurants along the way and ate it with her maids, leaving a portion in a food box to give to Marquis Anguo.
Zhitao frantically paid and couldn't help but say, "Miss, you really want to try everything."
Jiang Qingyao: "I don't know what Anguohou likes, so I'll just buy a little bit of everything."
Zhi Taoxin said, but the lady only bought the flavors she liked.
Ning and Chulu smiled. The young lady was so cute.
Zhitao felt that the young lady was much more lively. She had lived a very depressing life in the mansion before, with no one caring about her and no one talking to her. Now it was very different.
Jiang Qingyao was full after eating all the way, but she felt relaxed all over.
She couldn't remember how long it had been since she had gone shopping like this.
In her previous life, she was the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion, and that title was nothing but a shackle that bound her.
She always felt that she had a responsibility to turn the tide and prevent the decline of the Anguo Marquisate, but she didn't know that this was not something she could handle alone.
In that big house, Jiang Qingyao gradually lost herself.
Every time she accomplished something, He Huaixuan would appear to be fine on the surface, but secretly he would be unhappy and scold her for being self-willed and self-righteous. These words were told to her by the women outside.
It was not until then that Jiang Qingyao realized that in He Huaixuan's eyes, her efforts were nothing more than meddling and a provocation to his dignity.
People in the mansion listen to her more than to Lord He Huaixuan. No wonder he hates her and the Xue family so much.
They are the stains on his life. In order to prove that he can accomplish great things without relying on his wife or others, her position as the mistress of a marquisate is destined to be stripped away, and the Xue family should be destroyed.
Along the way, Jiang Qingyao figured out a lot of things and shook her head slightly.
Sighed.
The past has become a thing of the past, and the blood and tears of the previous life will never be shed again in this life.
Zhitao helped her get on the carriage and headed to the Marquis of Anguo's Mansion.
Jiang Qingyao fell into deep thought. In her previous life, the Fourth Prince rebelled against the emperor and the Xue family was cast into the faction supporting the emperor. They were accused of participating in the rebellion and raising private soldiers for the emperor.
Where did the evidence come from? Who fabricated it? Who set up the Xue family?
Unraveling the dense memories.
She knew that treason was a false charge!
The Xue family would never rebel, and they have nothing to do with supporting the king.
Faced with the so-called evidence, my grandfather was forced to commit suicide to prove his innocence, and the entire Xue family was arrested and imprisoned.
My uncle refused to plead guilty, but he couldn't bear the punishment and died in prison the next day...
Jiang Qingyao frowned, pinched her palms with her fingertips, and her eyes grew colder by the second.
In this life, the Xue family must not have anything to do with King Qin!
Merchants have always had a low status in Daxia. The Xue family is rich but powerless and has no one to rely on. This is a fatal weakness.
She wanted to find a backer for the Xue family, seek a golden ticket to immunity from death, and turn the passive situation into the active one before finding out the person behind the scenes.
"Miss, we're here." Zhitao reminded.
The next moment, Jiang Qingyao suddenly came to her senses and got off the carriage.
Most guests have to hand in an invitation first, and the host decides whether to meet them or not. But when the servant heard that the eldest daughter of the Jiang family wanted to see him, his attitude immediately changed, his eyes lit up, and he invited the person in.
Jiang Qingyao smiled lightly: "No need, just give the things to the Marquis for me and convey my gratitude to the Marquis for the gift of medicine."
The servant went in with the things but was asked by the housekeeper to help move the flower pots because they were too heavy.
Put the things aside and let the servant go to work first.
After a while, he came back and found that the thing was gone.
The maid in the mansion said, "The prince just passed by and took the things away."
The servant's heart sank. "Oh no! That's not for the prince, it's for the marquis!"
On the other side, He Huaixuan heard that someone from the Ningyuan Marquis's Mansion had come to visit, and he saw the calming tea. It happened that he had finished his calming tea. Wasn't it for him?
Jiang Qingyao's previous remarks about wanting to eat his feast and cursing him to death seemed to be just words spoken in anger.
She is just like that, hard on the outside but soft on the inside.
He Huaixuan was originally feeling suffocated and breathless, but now hope was rekindled in his heart.
He smiled, opened the lid of the calming tea and smelled it, and the smell had changed.
Does this smell familiar? Where have you smelled it before?
Clear and light.
After a moment, he looked at the things in the food box again, and the smile in his eyes became even more intense. They were all some quirky foods, mostly sweet.
He just likes sweet food.
Jiang Qingyao really remembered his taste very well.
"And you still say you don't have me in your heart?"
He doesn't believe it.
Just as I was about to return to the yard, a low and cold voice suddenly came from me, carrying a hint of oppression.
"Huaixuan, why are you so happy?"
He Huaixuan raised his head suddenly and called out, "Father."
He Zheng looked at him calmly, "What's in your hand?"
He Huaixuan said, "It's calming tea and some food."
After a pause, for some unknown reason, he added, "The eldest daughter of the Jiang family gave it to me."
