The Jiang Mansion is a place full of evil people and tigers.
"Miss, Miss, wake up quickly."
Bang--
The little maidservant, covered in wounds, trembled with fear.
The door was kicked open by the intruder, and the next second, "bang!"
Jiang Li suddenly opened her eyes, her face burning with pain. Where is this...
"Miss!"
"Madam, please let the young lady go. She seems to be ill. Can you..."
"You little bitch, do you have the right to speak here? Get out of here!" The woman looked at the two of them with disgust. "Today is a big day. If anything goes wrong, I will kill you!"
Amidst the noise, Jiang Li took a deep breath, and his eyes went from confused to clear.
Just now, memories flooded into his mind in an instant. Jiang Li coughed twice and sat up on the bed with his hands.
"What? You're not pretending anymore? Jiang Li, let me tell you, the Qin family is here to propose marriage today. If you don't want to marry now, it's too late!"
The next moment, a slap came. Jiang Li's eyes shone, and she raised her hand to grab the wrist of the person in front of her, "Mother, you are a little too impatient."
It is still a bit hot in late summer and early autumn.
A few beads of sweat oozed from the woman's nose, making her look like a newly blooming flower bud in the garden, delicate and charming.
The premise is to ignore her sharp eyes.
It was the first time that Zhou was stared at like this by Jiang Li, as if she was surrounded by poisonous snakes.
He pulled his hand back and glared at the woman, "You said you would marry into the Qin family, why is it like this now?"
Jiang Li sneered. She had never expected that after finally passing the test and getting the inheritance rights of the family's Traditional Chinese Medicine Development Group with a unanimous vote, and happily celebrating her 29th birthday, she woke up and found herself in the novel "The Pretty Concubine's Daughter is Favored by the Powerful Official" which she had complained about to pieces.
The worst thing is that she became the cannon fodder female supporting role with the same name and surname.
If I remember correctly, she was the daughter of a merchant. Though somewhat beautiful, her reputation as a domineering and talentless woman had long been known throughout the capital. However, her coming-of-age year was marked by sheer bad luck. While out for a stroll, she fell into the water and was rescued by the only son of the powerful Qin family. The Qin family's patriarch, impressed by Jiang Li's fortune, and the two became engaged. This story of a hero rescuing a beautiful woman became a legendary one.
Unexpectedly, on the day of her wedding, her half-sister, with whom she had a very good relationship, showed up at the wedding banquet seriously injured. She tearfully accused her of adultery and murder. With both witnesses and evidence, Jiang Li was sent to jail before she could make any defense.
They were skinned and stripped of their tendons, and swallowed charcoal raw. They died within three days in a horrific way.
Later, her half-sister, who had a very good relationship with her, married into the Qin Mansion with all the Jiang family's wealth in the name of atonement for her sister's sins. This won her the admiration of everyone and her reputation spread far and wide.
When she read it, she felt that her values were perverse. In order to let the concubine daughter ascend to the throne, the legitimate daughter was portrayed in such a miserable way. Isn't it just taking advantage of others' misfortune? My cousin also thought that this novel must have been written by one of her rivals, otherwise how could Jiang Li's end be so tragic?
Before she could think too much, she heard the housekeeper outside calling, "Madam, the Qin family's carriage has arrived outside the mansion. The master is urging us."
Jiang Li raised an eyebrow, "Go quickly, mother. I'll pack up and be there soon."
Zhou looked at the person in front of her, her brows furrowed. She felt something was amiss, but couldn't put her finger on it. "It's your good fortune to be able to marry into the Qin family. Don't do anything stupid again. The consequences of angering the Qin family are too much for you, and even your father, to bear."
With a flick of her long sleeves, Zhou glanced at the maids she had brought with her and said, "Guard the young lady, don't dawdle too late."
"Yes, ma'am."
"Miss, let me help you up." Regardless of the redness and swelling on her face, Bai Zhi hurried forward.
Jiang Li's face was indifferent. He glanced around and began to think in his mind.
"You guys go out and wait."
Jiang Li said, "Don't worry, I can't run away."
The maids who were left behind looked at each other and were about to say something when they saw Jiang Li's cold attitude. One of them said, "We are waiting outside the door. Miss, please call us anytime if you need anything. Please clean up quickly and don't make Madam angry."
Bai Zhi glared at her, then helped Jiang Li up and walked towards the dressing table.
After they left, Bai Zhi bit her lip and said, "Miss, they are really going too far."
Everyone thought that Jiang Li had forced this marriage, and it was only mentioned briefly in the book. But just now, Jiang Li received all the memories of the original owner and realized that this marriage was actually a trap set by her stepmother Zhou.
Yesterday morning, the original owner went to see Zhou and accidentally overheard the conversation between Zhou and her half-sister Jiang Shengsheng.
From the conversation, it was revealed that Zhou arranged Jiang Li's marriage because the Qin family's old patriarch valued her status as the Jiang family's eldest daughter and wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to make money. Jiang's father wanted to use this opportunity to climb to power, which led to this marriage. If Jiang Shengsheng wanted to marry smoothly, she had to step on Jiang Li to get to the top.
The original owner rushed in angrily to question the person in the corner before he could finish listening. However, before he could say a few words, he fell on his head during the jostle. When he woke up, it was Jiang Li who came through.
well.
Jiang Li sighed. The engagement was going to be today, and there was no time to slow down.
Now that things have come to this, no matter what happens next, this marriage will be ruined immediately. As for how it will be ruined... Jiang Li waved her hand back and sensed the medical system that had been with her since she was born in her previous life. The panic in her heart suddenly disappeared a little.
"Miss, how about the wound on your head?" Bai Zhi carefully helped Jiang Li tie her hair, fearing that she would touch the red and swollen area.
He touched the back of his head and said, "Hiss, it's okay. It will be fine in two days."
Jiang Li looked in the mirror. She saw her thin eyebrows like autumn water, a pair of lively peach blossom eyes that were delicate but not coquettish, and an oval face the size of a palm that was very beautiful and pretty with a little makeup. It must be said that the original owner looked very similar to her when she was sixteen or seventeen years old.
