Jiang Ying remained standing there in a daze until Yan Zhuo disappeared without a trace.
Curse? Eunuch?
She had never heard anything about these things before, and her grandmother had not told her a single word!
The day before yesterday, Jiang Ying was still wondering why her grandmother would be willing to abandon the Duke's Mansion and resolutely move with her to Yuhui Cottage, bringing her three brothers along with her...
It turned out that the Duke's Mansion had encountered some trouble.
Grandma must be worried that it would be dangerous to continue living in the mansion, or she might have other plans. Whether it was the empty city plan or the bewitching plan, it just proved that the people grandma cared about were only the four of them.
As for Luo and Jiang Yilin who were abandoned, it’s not grandma’s fault for being cruel, it’s all their own fault!
With something on his mind, Jiang Ying slept very uneasily that night.
Reason told her that Yan Zhuo was right. He was a prince and also a cousin trusted by the emperor. As long as the emperor did not want to destroy the Duke's Mansion, he had the means to protect it.
Marrying him and relying on his abilities is the most labor-saving way for her to help solve the predicament of the Duke's Mansion.
If she and her grandmother were to hold on, how long could they last?
The three brothers each have their own weaknesses and are of no help at all.
Even so, Jiang Ying still felt a little resistant in his heart and didn't want to be calculated by Yan Zhuo.
During breakfast, everyone noticed her listlessness. Jiang Yuanchen wondered, "Sister Ying, are the dumplings not to your liking?"
As he said that, he quickly stuffed one into his mouth and chewed it. It tasted like corn and was delicious!
Jiang Yuanyi had already gulped down a large bowl of food. It was a habit he developed in the military camp since he was a child. The taste of the food was not important, what was important was to fill his stomach quickly.
Otherwise, if there is any unusual movement, you will have to put down your chopsticks and go to war. How can you fight on an empty stomach?
Hearing this, he paused for a moment while wiping his mouth and said, "Not tasty? Then tell big brother what Yingying likes to eat, and I'll ask Yuwu to buy it."
"I think my little sister is sick?" Jiang Yuanlang put down his chopsticks immediately after eating a few bites.
Three pairs of eyes stared at Jiang Ying nervously, as if she was some fragile rare species.
Finally, even the old lady was startled. She raised her eyes from her seat of honor and ordered Nanny Tang, "Go, take my note and ask Sister Ying to send for an imperial physician. I'm afraid she's not feeling well."
Jiang Ying, "...Grandma, I am a doctor myself."
"A doctor cannot treat himself. Grandmother sees that you do look a little off today."
Jiang Ying shook his head, his eyes sliding across the faces of his three nervous brothers and loving grandmother. He felt a pang of pain in his heart, but mostly sighed, "Grandma, I'm really fine."
Little Yanzhi was full and satisfied, so he didn't crave the adults' food today.
She just danced and complained, "Grandma, my mother is bad. She secretly met with my scumbag father last night."
[You look bad? Did you do something you shouldn't have?]
[Oh, it's all my fault. I couldn't control my child's sleepiness. I wanted to secretly listen to it, but it went in one ear and out the other. I can't remember anything about it this morning!]
The child has grown up and become chubby. When he moves around so much, Si Yu can hardly control him.
She cried out in surprise, "Oh, my dear, please don't hold me any longer..."
Seeing this, Yin Rui hurried forward to help.
The sudden movement attracted the attention of everyone at the table. When they came to their senses, the old lady asked them to give the child to her.
While holding and caressing Xiao Yanzhi's soft belly, he looked at Jiang Ying and asked, "Are you really okay?"
Jiang Ying glanced at his mischievous son and nodded, "Yeah, I'm fine."
She stood up and held out her hand to her son, "Grandma, why don't I do it? He's like a loach now, and he's tiring you out."
Xiao Yanzhi, [You are the loach! ]
"You three, are you full? If you are, go do what you need to do!"
The old lady suddenly nodded at the three silent people at the table.
In the end, none of the three people moved.
The old lady glanced at the mess of cups and plates on the table with disdain, and thought to herself, no wonder her granddaughter sometimes calls Zhier "monkey son", look at this, it's caused by the food.
Boys are rough and not as well-behaved as girls.
After a while, seeing that he still didn't move, the old lady frowned, "Why don't you leave?"
Jiang Yuanlang was the first to point at his nose in disbelief, "Grandma called us?"
"Yes, Sister Ying and I had a private conversation. Aren't you all full? What are you still doing here?
The eldest goes to exercise, the second reads, and the third, don't you like catching crickets? Go ahead, there are a lot of fields nearby, catch some so you can play cricket fighting with your friends later."
Jiang Yuanlang, “…”
Everything is fine, why expose the dark history?
Jiang Yuanchen is quite self-aware. If you don't look closely, you can hardly tell that there is anything wrong with his brain from his current condition.
She replied obediently, "Okay, Xueyu and Xuezhi will stay here to help Sister Yinping fetch water, chop firewood, and clean up the dishes. I'm going to study now."
Jiang Yuanyi also fumbled to stand up, "Then my grandson will step aside. Grandmother and Yingmei can talk in peace."
The two brothers in front had already left, and even if Jiang Yuanlang felt aggrieved, he couldn't shamelessly stay and ask further questions.
After getting up and running away, she held onto Jiang Yuanyi's arm and pouted, "Grandma, isn't it obvious that you're biased? We are her grandchildren too, okay? Just talk to Sister Ying, why do you have to kick us out?"
Jiang Yuanyi straightened his chest and raised his head, staring at a flower on a tree not far away, staring at it intently. From only being able to see a vague outline, to distinguishing the color of the flower, and then to distinguishing the petals and green leaves, the whole process was so exciting that he didn't pay any attention to what Jiang Yuanlang said.
