Chapter 29 Let’s Collaborate
No matter what Jiang Mingyue said, Jiang Jiu remained indifferent.
Listen with one ear and let it out with the other.
Let Jiang Mingyue make noise there alone.
Lu Yunming felt that her words were a bit harsh, so he scratched his ears. Every word she said was a way to meet her lover, and every word she said was a way to divorce her.
It seemed as if slandering Jiang Jiu could make her happy, and that she would feel better if Jiang Jiu was divorced.
I don’t know what’s going on, but Lu Yunyang is inexplicably annoyed with Jiang Mingyue, but he’s also angry with Jiang Jiu. She said that to you, why don’t you say a word in rebuttal?
"Oh, my lady, I've been looking for you for a long time, and you're just here leisurely drinking tea."
As soon as Lu Yunyang entered the teahouse, the waiter recognized him and greeted him warmly.
"Mr. Lu, you are here. Please sit on the second floor. Would you like to drink Biluochun again?"
Lu Yunyang raised his chin proudly: "I will drink whatever my wife drinks... Go away, don't block me from looking for my wife."
Looking at him with such urgency, if you didn't know him well, you would think he and his wife were very affectionate.
Jiang Jiu gave him face. When he saw him coming, he stood up, consciously gave him the main seat, and poured him half a cup of tea.
Lu Yunyang's eyes were full of charm. He drank the wine in one gulp from Jiang Jiu's hand and then took Jiang Jiu's hand in his own...
"Mr. Xiao, please take a seat. We haven't finished talking yet. Don't leave in a hurry..."
Xiao Yimo's eyes moved, glanced at Jiang Jiu, and then sat down again.
Seeing this, Jiang Mingyue was about to sit back down, but she heard Lu Yunyang say in a clear voice: "Mrs. Chang, please leave after you finish your tea. Your Mr. Chang still needs your service."
Jiang Mingyue was furious when he was chased away directly.
In her previous life, Lu Yunyang looked down on her. He either spent the night in the concubine's room or did not return home at night. In a month, he slept in her room very rarely.
When Jiang Mingyue was angry, Lu Yunyang ignored her.
Unless Jiang Mingyue humbles herself and speaks nicely to him carefully, he will give her a good look.
I have never seen him currying favor with anyone, but now seeing Lu Yunyang actually protecting Jiang Jiu, the resentment and anger in my heart rose up immediately.
"Jiang Jiu, you are really patient. Master Lu is surrounded by numerous beauties, but you are not bothered at all."
Before Jiang Jiu could say anything, Lu Yunyang raised his lips and said, "No matter how many beauties there are, she is the principal wife."
This told Jiang Mingyue that to be the principal wife, one must have the mind and means of a principal wife.
Lu Yun
Yang's eight concubines were completely subdued by Jiang Jiu, but Jiang Mingyue didn't have this ability.
But when Jiang Mingyue heard the words, she knew that it was Lu Yunyang's obvious preference.
Jiang Mingyue glared at Jiang Jiu fiercely. How could Lu Yunyang look at Jiang Jiu, a guy who was living in her house and was inferior to her in every way, differently?
"I heard that Jiang Jiu wanted to divorce Master Lu. That's right. She has someone else in her heart. Naturally, she doesn't care about Master Lu's three thousand beauties..."
After saying this, she gave Xiao Yimo a meaningful look, as if Jiang Jiu's lover was Xiao Yimo.
Lu Yunyang opened the fan in his hand with a swish and waved it lightly twice, wantonly and romantically.
"This is not your concern. Do we have to report to Madam Chang every day about how we live as a couple? But Chang Zhili always says that his wife is too strict and has lost her prestige, so he wants to take a concubine..."
Sure enough, before Lu Yunyang finished speaking, Jiang Mingyue could no longer sit still and stood up and left.
When she walked downstairs to the street, she turned her head and looked at Jiang Jiu deeply again.
In her previous life, she had never had a good relationship with Lu Yunyang because Lu Yunyang was a playboy and had no ambition.
If she can't even control Chang Zhili in this life, then she is really inferior to Jiang Jiu.
That won't do. Jiang Jiu is nothing but an orphan living under someone else's roof. She must be living a better life than her. The future No. 1 scholar's wife will be her, Jiang Mingyue, not Jiang Jiu.
Jiang Mingyue was so angry that she left. Jiang Jiu and Xiao Yimo both felt that Lu Yunyang was very surprised.
However, Lu Yunyang was drinking tea and looking at the man and woman in front of him, and he always felt that something was inappropriate.
"Mr. Xiao, tell me why you are drinking tea with my wife today. Don't tell me it's just to meet my cousin."
Xiao Yimo raised his eyes and glanced at Jiang Jiu, a cunning light flashing in his clear eyes.
Jiang Jiu pursed his lips: "I plan to convince my cousin to ask Hua Man Lou for 30% of the bonus..."
Lu Yunyang frowned and asked, "Did you compose those songs?"
Jiang Jiu also quickly looked at Lu Yunyang. Just from her words, he thought of those songs. Lu Yunyang couldn't be a playboy who knew nothing.
At the same time, Jiang Jiu also verified one of his guesses.
"It turns out that Mr. Lu is the owner of Hua Man Lou. That makes things easier to talk about."
Lu Yunyang pursed his lips tightly. When talking to a smart person, he had to keep his expression secret, otherwise he would be seen through at a glance.
After a long while, Lu Yunyang asked again: "Just based on those songs, you want to spend 30% of the bonus of the mansion. You are thinking too much."
Jiang Jiu lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes were like a fan, forming an inky shadow under her eyelids, light and faint. Her white skin and black eyelashes made her eyes look especially dark and bright.
"Then don't take the 30% bonus. I can also help Hua Man Lou make money. However, Mr. Lu has to agree to one condition of mine..."
Lu Yunyang: "What conditions?"
Jiang Jiumei's eyes turned cleverly, as if she had seen mist and rain for half a lifetime.
"I heard that the Ninth Prince will invite some celebrities to his garden party during the Dragon Boat Festival. If Mr. Lu doesn't mind, can you take me along..."
Jiangnan Yunmengze is located in the two cities of Sucheng and Jiangcheng, including the eight counties of Xiangxian, which are all fiefs of the ninth prince, the younger brother of the current emperor.
The Ninth Prince is very young. The late Emperor and the Empress Dowager are both gone, and the Emperor is busy dealing with state affairs all day long, so no one cares about him, so he has not yet married. I heard that he likes to travel everywhere, and almost no one has seen him except those in the palace.
The annual Dragon Boat Festival banquet was a must-do event in his fiefdom, so many people wanted to take the opportunity to establish some relationship with him.
Lu Yunyang's sharp eyes swept across Jiang Jiu's face, gleaming with cold light.
"You want to see King Qi..."
Jiang Jiufeng raised her eyes slightly, revealing a hint of charm: "I heard that the Ninth Prince is a man of great literary talent, unconventional, and cherishes talents. As long as a person is talented, regardless of whether he is a man or a woman, he can help them find a way out."
Jiang Jiu played with the teacup in his hand, and smiled as he opened his red lips: "What do you think if I go to his house and become a prostitute?"
"Humph." Lu Yunyang snorted contemptuously, "You gave up being the principal wife and went to work as a prostitute in Prince Qi's mansion. I thought you had such noble ambitions..."
Do you think Jiang Jiu is willing to go to the Ninth Prince's mansion?
The things her mother left for him were snatched away by the Ninth Prince.
She wants to get it back.
But she couldn't say it, and it was difficult to say it. After all, she was just a baby of a hundred days old at that time. Who would have thought that she had memories from that time.
Besides, the Ninth Prince had given her some food and saved her and Nanny Qian's lives, so it was not too much to ask for some supplies. After all, she had no other gold or silver on her except the ring.
That ring may not be important to the Ninth Prince, but it is very important to Jiang Jiu.
Originally, if Jiang Jiu married Chang Zhili, she would have to wait until Chang Zhili passed the examination to become a groom before she could attend the Dragon Boat Festival banquet of the Ninth Prince.
Now that I'm married to Lu Yunyang, I've saved several years, which is a pleasant surprise.
Jiang Jiu: "Without spending a penny, Hua Man Lou can be resurrected. Master Lu, are you willing?"
