Chapter 14 You Are Nothing
Jiang Jingyan angrily retorted, "So what if she grew up in the countryside? If you grew up in the countryside, you'd probably be worse than her!"
Yu Qingwan took a deep breath, raised her chin slightly and said proudly, "It's a pity that I grew up in the capital. I am a pampered lady. I can't compare with those who grew up in the countryside."
"You..." Jiang Jingyan was so angry, but he couldn't refute it.
My grandmother told me that Qingxu Temple is a small Taoist temple in a remote place. When I saw Jiang Yunxi for the first time that day, she was wearing Taoist clothes and she really couldn't compare with these glamorous ladies.
"Which family are you from?" Jiang Yunxi asked with a smile after looking at the other person's face.
"My father is the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue." Yu Qingwan said about her identity.
Jiang Yunxi laughed out loud, "The daughter of the Minister of Revenue, I thought your father was the Minister of Revenue. How dare the daughter of a third-rank official compare yourself to me? My father is the Duke of Yingguo, a first-rank official, two ranks higher than your father!"
When she spoke later, her tone was full of contempt.
Comparing status and competing with fathers, right?
She has a higher status than her, and her father has a higher official rank!
Yu Qingwan gritted her teeth secretly and said disdainfully: "So what if your father is the Duke of England? You didn't grow up at home. Who knows if he will like you? I heard that the Duke of England's wife doesn't like you."
When she said the latter part, there was a sneer on her face.
They heard that Mrs. Mu didn't like her daughter, but she protected Jiang Chenyu more.
"So what if you don't like me? It still doesn't change my identity as the eldest daughter of the Duke of Yingguo. I am more noble than you." Jiang Yunxi's cold and beautiful face was full of arrogance, and she exuded a powerful aura that could not be ignored.
Everyone present was stunned.
They thought Jiang Yunxi came from the countryside and had never seen the world, so she must be timid and cowardly and not presentable. They didn't expect her to be so imposing.
"It's just an empty identity." Yu Qingwan sneered. So what if she is the eldest daughter of the Duke of Yingguo's family? Which noble lady in the capital would look up to her?
"I am still nobler than you." Jiang Yunxi smiled.
Yu Qingwan was furious. From a purely social perspective, she, the eldest daughter of the Duke of Ying, was indeed more noble than she was. "Why should I be so proud? Look at myself. I'm just a Taoist priest from a small, unheard-of Taoist temple."
Jiang Yunxi smiled and said, "I am still nobler than you."
Yu Qingwan went crazy again, "Besides this, can't you say anything else?"
Jiang Yunxi thought for a moment and said loudly, "I, Jiang Yunxi, am of higher status than you!"
Jiang Jingyan burst out laughing.
His sister seems interesting.
Yu Qingwan's defenses were completely broken, and she angrily said with contempt on her face: "How can a scheming woman like you be noble? I don't know what means you used to give birth to His Highness Prince Han's child. No wonder Prince Han didn't marry you."
"So what if he doesn't marry me? I'm still the mother of his child, and you are nothing!" Jiang Yunxi rolled his eyes at her.
"You, you, you..." Yu Qingwan was so angry that she almost wanted to hit someone, but looking at Jiang Jingyan, she finally held back.
"Be more careful with your words in the future, otherwise you will easily get into trouble." Jiang Yunxi said meaningfully and turned around to pick a hairpin.
Jiang Jingyan hurriedly followed.
Yu Qingwan stomped her feet in anger, her eyes burning with rage.
The other noble ladies all looked at Jiang Yunxi's back indignantly. They didn't expect that she came from a small place and not only didn't know how to humble herself and get along well with them, but was also so arrogant and presumptuous.
She must have relied on the fact that she gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl, for the King Han, who had no heirs.
She thinks too highly of herself.
King Han looked down on her at all.
Jiang Yunxi chose a smooth white hairpin with no decoration or carving on it. It was as ordinary as it could be. She had no interest in jewelry and just liked plain hairpins because they were convenient for styling her hair.
Jiang Jingyan was stunned when he saw her choice, "Are you sure you only want this hairpin?"
"OK, go pay." Jiang Yunxi directly inserted the hairpin into her bun.
Jiang Jingyan: “…”
The two men just left the shop.
"I want to eat candied haws." Jiang Yunxi saw someone selling candied haws passing by.
"Isn't this something that only Momo, Mianmian and the others like to eat?"
"I'll try it for them to see if it tastes good."
Jiang Jingyan: “…”
The brother and sister each had a candied haws and ate them as they walked.
Along the way, Jiang Jingyan asked Jiang Yunxi if she wanted anything else and he would buy it for her.
Jiang Yunxi said that she didn't need it for the time being. She had low material desires and knew that she didn't have much time left to live, so she felt there was no need to buy anything. She wouldn't engage in revenge consumption just because she was dying, because she would be reincarnated anyway.
Return to the Duke of England's Mansion.
Jiang Yunxi went directly to the old lady's yard. As soon as she entered, she heard laughter and joy inside.
"Grandma, is the massage comfortable for you? This is a new technique I learned, which can relieve fatigue." Jiang Chenyu stood behind the old lady, massaging her neck and shoulders gently with her hands. Her grandmother had talked to her that day.
She knew that her grandmother loved her.
After all, she has been by her side since she was a child.
She asked her to get along well with Jiang Yunxi. As for the address, Jiang Yunxi was the Third Miss and she was Miss Chenyu. She could continue to live in the Duke of England's mansion. Even if her biological parents were found in the future, this would still be her home.
After hearing this, she was very moved. She had been worried that her grandmother would favor Jiang Yunxi and drive her away.
But her grandmother also told her that Jiang Yunxi had suffered a lot since she was a child and that now that she was back, the Duke of England's Mansion would treat her better.
"It's so comfortable. Your craftsmanship has improved again." The old lady praised with a smile.
"As long as grandma likes her." Jiang Chenyu smiled softly. Now that she is in the Duke of England's mansion, she will make her grandma, mother, father, and elder and second brothers like her more.
The old lady reached out and patted her hand, "You are so thoughtful. Sit down and rest for a while."
"I'm not tired."
"Hurry, sit down, grandma wants to tell you something."
Jiang Chenyu sat down beside her after hearing her say this. "Grandma, what do you want to say?"
The old lady looked at her with a kind smile, "Yun Xi already has two children. You are the same age as her and it's time for you to get married. Grandmother is not asking you to leave the Duke of Ying's Mansion. She just wants you to be happy."
Jiang Chenyu lowered her head and said, "Who would be willing to marry me at my age? I don't want to marry either. I want to stay with my grandmother for the rest of my life."
"Silly girl, how can your grandmother delay your whole life? You are the daughter of the Duke of England. You are pretty and smart. I don't know how many noble men want to marry you." The old lady said with a smile. She didn't want to get married before, and she didn't think it was a big deal.
But now, it seems best for her to get married.
She would prepare a dowry for her according to the Duke of England's daughter's marriage. She had raised her for twenty-two years and still had feelings for her. She would not treat her coldly and as an outsider just because she had found her granddaughter.
She was taken away by mistake. She was just a baby and innocent.
"Grandma." Jiang Yunxi stepped in.
She was very confused as to why Jiang Chenyu was unwilling to get married and instead wanted to stay in the Duke of England's mansion.
infatuation?
She didn't look like it.
