"Give it here." He Zheng stood up and said.
The attendant beside him immediately offered something. He Zheng took the umbrella from the attendant and walked down the stairs.
There was an uproar in the crowd.
Marquis Anguo actually came towards them!
He Zheng walked in the sunlight, holding an umbrella and approached Jiang Qingyao, tilting the umbrella towards her to block the sunlight above her head.
He Zheng said calmly, "Why did you come here to play?"
Jiang Qingyao raised her head and stepped back a little silently.
Just talk, don’t strain your neck.
This scene seemed familiar. He Zheng recalled that in the pharmacy before, she also took two steps back to keep a distance.
At that time he still thought she was afraid of him.
It seems that he is just too tired to look up.
Jiang Qingyao took Dou Yueying's arm and replied with a smile: "Aying and I were shopping in the market. We saw a lot of people gathered here. We thought there was something fun going on, so we came over to join in the fun."
Dou Yueying suddenly felt indescribably nervous and immediately said, "Dou Yueying, daughter of the Minister of Rites, greets the Marquis."
At this time, Marquis Anguo glanced at her lightly, then looked at Jiang Qingyao again.
He Zheng: "You didn't bring your maid?"
Jiang Qingyao: "I brought it. I asked Zhitao to go to the food street to buy food for us."
You can never go hungry at any time.
He Zheng nodded slightly: "Have you brought enough money?"
"That's enough." Jiang Qingyao's eyes curved, and she showed him her purse, "Look, I still have some."
"If it's not enough, I'll say I'm the wife of the Marquis of Anguo and ask them to give me credit."
Um? !
Dou Yueying, who was standing by, was filled with shock. Is this something she can say?
I was shocked by the relaxed and close conversation between Jiang Qingyao and Marquis Anguo, and even more shocked by her last words.
The powerful and noble lords care about their reputation the most. Aren’t they afraid that selling on credit will tarnish the reputation of Marquis Anguo?
But He Zheng was not annoyed at all. He said, "There's no need to buy on credit. Just take over the shop in my name. Xifeng will pay for it later."
"..." Jiang Qingyao was silent this time.
What does it mean to buy a shop directly without selling on credit?
She was just joking with him when she said she was buying him on credit, so why did he take it seriously?
Jiang Qingyao took a deep breath and said, "Isn't that a bit of a waste? My Lord, aren't you afraid that I'll squander all your money?"
He Zheng handed her the umbrella in his hand, leaned over and whispered in her ear: "That's your ability, just give it a try."
The people around them were shocked to see them talking as if no one was around.
I can't help but sigh how loving they are.
Marquis Anguo doted on his new wife so much that he even held an umbrella for her himself.
The official who was also in charge of supervising the execution came over and whispered, "My Lord, it's almost time."
"Let's go play somewhere else." He Zheng said to Jiang Qingyao, then turned around and returned to the first seat.
Jiang Qingyao naturally followed suit and took Dou Yueying away.
There is really no point in watching an execution.
Before leaving, she glanced at Princess Yongjia, whose face was pale and her eyes were always on her.
In Princess Yongjia's eyes, she saw surging hatred.
The two men exchanged silent words for a moment.
Jiang Qingyao left without looking back.
If Princess Yongjia wants to take her life, she can only wait until the next life.
The official supervising the execution listed Yuan Chuliang's crimes, including bullying men and women, taking human lives, and interfering in military affairs... Every one of them was unforgivable.
Yuan Chuliang was beaten to death.
Princess Yongjia's face became increasingly ugly as she watched him, and she was shaking with fear.
It was her, it was she who killed my cousin!
Not even a hair of Jiang Qingyao was hurt, but her cousin's life was lost.
Her body swayed, her eyes went dark, and she fell backwards...
In the street market, Jiang Qingyao saw a figure she had not seen for a long time.
Jiang Yunxue, wearing a goose yellow silk dress, got into the carriage slowly.
As if she had realized something, she turned around and looked back, and happened to meet Jiang Qingyao's gaze.
Jiang Yunxue was stunned for a moment and then got into the car.
Dou Yueying said, "Jiang Yunxue is now the adopted daughter of the wife of the Marquis of Changning."
Jiang Qingyao showed a hint of surprise, "Aying, tell me in detail."
She had indeed not paid attention to the news from the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion recently, so she did not know Jiang Yunxue's current situation.
Dou Yueying: "The carriage of the Marquis of Changning's wife was startled and rushed into the lake. Jiang Yunxue jumped in, risking her life to save her, and nearly drowned herself."
"Not only that, Jiang Yunxue even begged for elixir for the seriously ill daughter of Marquis Changning's wife. She knelt and kowtowed on three hundred stone steps, nearly crippling her knees."
After hearing Dou Yueying's words, Jiang Qingyao thought to herself, what a ruthless person.
Saving people doesn't seem like something Jiang Yunxue would do. She is only driven by the interests behind it.
Jiang Yunxue also got what she wished for and became the adopted daughter of the wife of Marquis Changning, thus establishing a relationship with the Marquis Changning's Mansion. The Marquis Changning's Mansion must repay her kindness.
"I didn't expect that after Xu's death, Jiang Yunxue would be so bold."
"If we don't fight, I'm afraid we'll all sink to the bottom of this broken ship, the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion, with no chance of recovery."
Dou Yueying was surprised to hear her describe the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion as a broken ship. The Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion was now in a state of complete decline and no longer had a trace of dignity.
Ningyuan Bo was in mourning for three years, and there was no place for him in the court.
The two young masters in the mansion are not good at studying, and it is said that the eldest son Jiang Xize even owes a large gambling debt.
The head of the family is incompetent, and the younger generation is unable to help him. The Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion is destined to decline. Probably within three to five years, no one in the capital will remember the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion anymore.
Dou Yueying changed the subject, "By the way, Qingyao, the annual autumn hunt will be here soon. You must go then."
"I'll catch two rabbits for you."
