It was late at night and everyone was asleep. Xie Nanchu had caught a cold and his body could no longer hold on. He had just laid down when he heard a rustling sound outside the window.
She bravely got out of bed, and as soon as her hand touched the door handle, she saw the window wide open and a little ball rolled in.
Accompanied by a cry of pain.
Xie Nanchu took a look in the moonlight and was stunned.
"Little Princess!"
She hurriedly helped Jiang Yuanxi up. If something bad happened as a result of this misfortune, she would not be able to compensate for it even if she had ten lives.
"Sister-in-law." Jiang Yuanxi chuckled.
Xie Nanchu immediately lit the candle.
"Little princess, what are you doing here so late?" The Jiang family actually let a little child run around so late at night.
What if something goes wrong?
Jiang Yuanxi hooked Xie Nanchu’s fingers.
"Sister-in-law, call my name. My name is Yuan Xi."
Xie Nanchu paused. Although the little girl was small, she was still a princess after all.
Calling the princess by her name is extremely disrespectful.
Just as I was about to refuse, I saw the little guy's earnest eyes.
"Okay, then I'll call you Yuan Xi."
Xie Nanchu smiled softly.
"Yuan Xi, you come here so late at night, aren't you afraid that your family will worry?"
"Don't be afraid, I miss my sister-in-law."
[It's not my mother, she woke me up in the middle of the night and asked me to come and look after my sister-in-law. ]
Also, she saw a faint black aura on her sister-in-law's head during the day.
Xie Nanchu: “…”
An idea formed in her mind.
Could it be that Madam Hou is interested in her as Jiang Yuansheng's wife?
But......
No, no, no, Xie Nanchu immediately shook the thought from his mind.
She must be overthinking it.
How could the eldest son of the Jiang family, such a brilliant and handsome man, fall in love with her?
It was night time now, and it was not convenient to let the little princess go back, so Xie Nanchu had to let her stay here temporarily.
The wedding date between the Xie family and the Jiang family is set for one month later.
During this month, Mrs. Xie received a lot of compliments, and Mr. Xie Qian's status also rose accordingly.
Xie Ziyue was originally a playboy, and since he had the Jiang family's support, he has become more and more unscrupulous.
"Let me tell you, the Jiang family is behind me," Xie Ziyue stepped on the restaurant manager, "I don't even care about your little place."
After saying this, he left with a group of playboys.
Jiang Yuanyuan happened to come here to discuss business and happened to hear these words.
"Has he always been like this?"
The waiter at the restaurant smiled bitterly, "Sir, to be honest with you, Mr. Xie didn't dare to do this before. Ever since Miss Xie got engaged to the Jiang family, Mr. Xie has become more and more unscrupulous. This month, he has come six times, and every time he didn't pay."
When the boss learned that the Jiang family was behind him, he dared not to provoke him.
Just consider it as a loss suffered in silence.
Moreover, they are not the only ones who suffer losses.
Jiang Yuanyuan frowned.
It seems that I need to discuss this matter with my eldest brother.
Here, upon learning that the princess was coming, Madam Xie wanted to serve up all the delicacies in the mansion.
Xie Qingyue was serving on one side.
"How is it, little princess? Is it delicious?"
"Delicious, delicious." Jiang Yuanxi's mouth was full of oil.
Recently, she has gained some weight since she returned home, and her mother has started to control her food intake again.
Jiang Yuanxi hasn't had any meat dishes for several days.
Looking at the valuable jade pendants and clothes on Jiang Yuanxi, Xie Qingyue couldn't help but feel more satisfied with this marriage.
As long as you marry into the Jiang family and have money, you can have any kind of man you want.
Thinking of this, Xie Qingyue served more seriously.
In the middle of the night, a figure sneaked into the Xie family and entered one of the houses.
"Cousin." Xie Qingyue called in a sticky voice.
The man hooked his arm around Xie Qingyue's slender waist and smiled wickedly, "Why, you missed me so much after not seeing me for just one day?"
Xie Qingyue punched him lightly in the chest.
"My cousin only knows how to tease others. In a month, I will marry into the Jiang family, and we won't see each other anymore. Isn't my cousin like me?"
"Of course I do." The man rubbed Xie Qingyue's tender face.
"In this case, let's make up for the rest of the days."
The man picked up Xie Qingyue and went straight to the couch.
Outside the door, Jiang Yuanxi and Xie Nanchu were stunned.
Xie Nanchu never thought that she would see such a big scene when she was just taking a walk with the overfed little princess.
When she realized what was happening, she immediately covered Jiang Yuanxi's eyes.
After a while, there was no movement in the house.
Only then did Xie Nanchu dare to move.
Jiang Yuanxi thought for a moment and said, "Don't worry, sister-in-law. My brother is better than him."
Thinking of something, Xie Nanchu's face turned red.
He hurriedly dragged Jiang Yuanxi away.
When they reached a deserted place, the two stopped.
Out of gossip, Xie Nanchu couldn't help asking: "It is rumored in the capital that Lord Jiang can't, can't, um um."
She hummed the last two words.
But knowing who Jiang Yuanxi was, he naturally guessed what his sister-in-law wanted to say.
"Don't worry, sister-in-law. The rumors in the capital are all false. You won't suffer if you follow my brother."
Xie Nanchu's cheeks turned red again because of the little guy. Fortunately, it was night time, otherwise she would have made a big fool of herself.
However, the little princess may have misunderstood. The one who married the eldest son of the Jiang family was her half-sister Xie Qingyue.
Jiang Yuansheng was a young genius with a bright future ahead of him, but Xie Qingyue was cheating on him. Thinking of this, Xie Nanchu felt uncomfortable.
Now that the little princess has discovered Xie Qingyue's affair with that man, the Xie family may be in great trouble.
Xie Nanchu hesitated and said, "Little Princess, can you tell the eldest master about this matter in advance and ask him to cancel the engagement or give him a lighter punishment?"
Jiang Yuanxi scratched his head and said, "Okay."
After she finished speaking, she was stunned. Why did the eldest sister-in-law want to cancel the engagement? She also asked for the eldest brother's opinion.
Jiang Yuanxi thought about it all night, and went home early the next morning.
I just happened to catch the Jiang family having breakfast.
"The young lady is back. I'll go find the dishes and chopsticks right away." Chuntao said happily.
After the dishes were laid out, Jiang Yuanxi hesitated.
"Brother, my sister-in-law said that if you are as the rumor says, she will cancel the engagement if it doesn't work out."
"puff!"
For a moment, soup splashed all over the table.
I can't tell whose saliva it is.
Chunzhi hurriedly put handkerchiefs on the ground for the lady, the master, the young master, and the two ladies.
Jiang Yuansheng, on the other hand, continued to drink his tea calmly.
Chen Xinwan glanced at her eldest son, then turned around and asked, "Is this all you have found out since you went to the Xie family these days?"
Jiang Yuanxi shook her head: "Mom, my sister-in-law and I saw Xie Qingyue and her cousin together."
"My eldest sister-in-law just saw them and asked me to tell my eldest brother a message."
"Slurp." Jiang Yuanxi took a sip of soy milk, as if he didn't know what earth-shattering thing she had just said.
Jiang Fengyuan snorted coldly: "The Xie family has a lax family tradition, and Xie Qian is not a righteous official. He is indeed not suitable to exist."
"Yesterday at the restaurant, Xie Ziyue ate and ate for free and beat someone up. Dad, if we continue to allow the Xie family to do this, the reputation of our Jiang family will be ruined." Jiang Yuanyuan said seriously.
