Chapter 53 Jiang Family Thoughts
Liu and Jiang Wanqiu had never been so embarrassed before. The whispers around them made them so embarrassed that they wished they could find a hole to crawl into.
It was not until now that they truly felt that Jiang Xinyu was out of control, as if the reckless girl they knew before had completely changed into a different person.
Seeing that their master didn't dare to show his teeth in front of the new aunt, the servants of the Jiang family pretended to be cowards and did not dare to help Liu and the second girl until all the people in front had entered.
Jiang Wanqiu was now regretting her decision to the core. She regretted why she had to follow her mother to pick someone up.
Was it just to see Jiang Xinyu's miserable appearance for the first time? But now she is the one who is embarrassed.
She couldn't even imagine what would happen to her and her daughter if the rumors spread tomorrow.
No, we can't just sit there and wait for death.
The good reputation she had built up over the past decade by doing good to others could not be ruined like this.
She probably can't count on Brother Chengye anymore, and she can't even get Jiang Xinyu's dowry. The only thing she can show off now is her decent reputation.
If she loses her good reputation again, how will she be able to marry into a good family?
Poetry, songs, calligraphy, chess, and painting are all embellishments that add the finishing touch. Young men and young ladies care about them, but none of the ladies from wealthy families take these things seriously when choosing a daughter-in-law.
The more Jiang Wanqiu thought about it, the sadder she felt. As soon as she entered Liu's house, she couldn't help but burst into tears.
Liu also cried softly while holding her daughter with red eyes, lamenting the injustice of fate and gritting her teeth,
"It's all my fault for being too soft-hearted. If I had known this little bitch had such seductive tricks, I would have killed her sooner.
How shameless.
In the past, she acted as if she would not marry anyone but Prince Zhao, and I thought she was very infatuated, but she was just a slut who would sleep with anyone.
She is willing to sleep on the eunuch's bed, I want to see how long she can be so proud."
Jiang Wanqiu knew that her mother was speaking in anger and could only comfort her softly.
How could her mother be so kind-hearted? Ever since she learned accounting from her mother, she knew that the entire Jiang family was supported by Jiang Xinyu's mother's dowry.
If her mother killed Jiang Xinyu, the land and property would be taken away by the Qian family. How could her father agree to that?
Not only must Jiang Xinyu not be killed, but the world must also be made aware that the eldest daughter of the Jiang family enjoys the highest share of wealth and luxury in the Jiang family.
Otherwise, their parents’ reputation would be ruined, and their siblings would also be criticized.
It was no secret that her father came from a poor family, and it was also well known that Jiang Xinyu's mother came from a wealthy Jiangnan merchant family.
People in the upper class care most about their reputation. Even if they are dirty and vile behind the scenes, they have to keep up the appearance of being okay.
Once their reputation is ruined, they will be like rats crossing the street and no one will care about them. Not only will their father have no hope of promotion, but they will also be squeezed out of the circle of power and nobility.
Everything was going smoothly. Jiang Xinyu's reputation had already been ruined, and Brother Chengye and the Duke's wife had also made promises to her.
But why did everything change overnight? Could it be that Jiang Xinyu was not destined to die?
A deep sense of unwillingness flashed across Jiang Wanqiu's eyes.
How come that idiot has such a good life.
Such a lazy and unmotivated waste should rot in the mud and be hated by everyone.
How can she act so arrogantly in the mansion and eat and use the best things?
How can she get a good marriage without doing anything?
How can she be protected and bullied even though she married a eunuch?
On what basis!
On what basis!
On what basis!
Jiang Wanqiu originally wanted to comfort her mother, but as she spoke she started crying again.
She is unwilling to accept this.
She is obviously more likable than Jiang Xinyu and better than her in every way, so why is her life so unfortunate?
Liu touched Jiang Wanqiu's head with concern and said angrily,
"Don't worry, Qiu'er, mother won't swallow this.
It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. Since Xiao favors her now, we should avoid her for the time being. We will slowly settle the score with her when she falls out of favor in the future.
Nothing lasts forever; if a couple does not have children together, their love will not last long.
She just relied on her coquettish face to coax the old eunuch into standing up for her. When the freshness wears off, she will suffer."
It was unclear whether Liu was speaking to her daughter or herself, but after she finished speaking, both mother and daughter felt much better, as if they had seen Jiang Xinyu's beauty fade and her love fade away, and she was abandoned by Xiao Yuan.
At this moment, a maid came to report that the family dinner was ready and the master asked the mistress, the second daughter and the young master to take their seats.
Jiang Huai now has two sons and two daughters.
The eldest son, Jiang Song, is studying at a college in another place and is not at home. He also has an 8-year-old younger son, Jiang Quan.
Except for Jiang Xinyu who was born to Mrs. Qian, the remaining one daughter and two sons were all from Mrs. Liu.
Regardless of whether Jiang Huai kept his promise or truly loved Liu, he never took a concubine or a maid, which saved Liu's face.
In the past, Jiang Xinyu was the only one who ate in her own yard at the mansion, and the whole family ate together warmly, just like a family.
In particular, Jiang Huai's youngest son Jiang Quan was his favorite, and Liu also regarded this youngest son as the apple of her eye.
Now, hearing that the master wanted Quan'er to have dinner with Jiang Xinyu and his wife, Liu suddenly panicked. She led Jiang Wanqiu to the front hall and sent a maid to watch over the young master and not let him leave the yard.
Through this slap, Liu has realized that the old lady Jiang Xinyu married is a cruel and capricious person, and has been controlled by that little bastard.
But her husband is useless. If Quan'er comes here and gets hurt, she will have nowhere to cry.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard Liu hurried, she was still a step too late. When she stepped into the front hall, Jiang Quan was already there.
Liu hurriedly pulled her son behind her and looked at Jiang Xinyu warily, unable to hide the fear and hatred in her eyes.
Jiang Xinyu, however, still had a beautiful smile on her face and asked Liu and Jiang Wanqiu to sit down, as if the unpleasantness just now was just an illusion.
Jiang Wanqiu clenched his fists unconsciously.
She is now finding it increasingly difficult to understand Jiang Xinyu. This kind of Jiang Xinyu makes her feel uneasy.
Jiang Huai didn't notice anything wrong. After all, he was not familiar with this girl and he had seen her less often than he had seen Xiao Yuan in the morning court.
He only remembered that this girl was troublesome, had a bad temper, liked to make trouble, and had never been close to him since childhood, so after Qian's death, he simply turned a blind eye.
But things are different now. Governor Xiao obviously dotes on Yu Yatou, so it's time to repair their father-daughter relationship.
Seeing the Liu mother and daughter, who were so alert and didn't even smile, Jiang Huai scolded them for being unruly, and then smiled at Xiao Yuan and said,
"I am a woman who cannot be seen in public. After all, I have watched Yu'er grow up. Please forgive me, Lord Governor."
Xiao Yuan ignored Jiang Huai and looked at Jiang Xinyu. Seeing his wife nod, he also nodded to indicate that it was okay.
Jiang Huai felt as if his worldview had been shattered when he saw this weird scene.
Of course, more of it is disbelief.
It has been several times since I entered the room just now. Why does Governor Xiao always depend on Yu Yatou's opinion in everything?
You can tell from his expression that you are the supervisor of the East Factory, so you shouldn't be so vain.
If it weren't for Xiao Yuan's distinctive pair of venomous snake eyes, Jiang Huai would have thought it was a fake.
Did his daughter learn animal taming? She tamed the beast just a few days after getting married.
My goodness, if I had known you had this ability, I would have sent you to the palace!
The emperor's six sons are more brutal than each other. It would be better for you to tame any one of them than to tame a eunuch.
