Jiang and Jiang Qianniang exchanged a glance. Jiang Qianniang smiled and said, "Why don't we talk while walking in the garden? Does Young Master Han need me to step aside?"
Han Yunqian glanced at Jiang Qianniang and nodded: "Okay, Miss Jiang, there is no need to avoid it."
Jiang Qianniang smiled back at Han Yunqian, as if she had anticipated that she would not be sent away by Han Yunqian. In fact, it was really difficult for Han Yunqian to send Jiang Qianniang away and only talk to Jiang. If someone saw it, it would spread very badly. Moreover, Han Yunqian also needed to reassure the people of the Jiang family if he cared about this marriage.
In this way, Han Yunqian accompanied Jiang and Jiang Qianniang to stroll in the garden for more than half an hour. As for what they talked about, no one knew except the three people involved.
A few days later, Jiang Qianniang asked Jiang Shi to accompany her to the Yanbei Palace to ask for an audience with the Xiao family's young lady. The Xiao family's young lady also met the two. People outside speculated that the Jiang family's sixth daughter and the Xiao family's young lady were very compatible.
Ren Yaoqi still met Jiang and Jiang Qianniang in Yingya Pavilion.
It seemed that he knew that this time Jiang and Jiang Qianniang would be more straightforward.
It was Jiang who spoke first: "A while ago, our Han family made some mistakes. Thank you, Madam, for your magnanimity and for not holding it against us. The Han family promises to be more cautious in the future. We hope that Madam can forgive us."
Ren Yaoqi didn't play dumb this time. She looked at Jiang with a faint smile and asked, "Is this a guarantee from Mrs. Han?"
Jiang said quickly, "How can I, a woman of modest means, be the master of this matter? Today I am merely running errands, delivering a message from the man who is in charge of our Han family. Rest assured, Madam, this is what Young Master Han said himself. He will never go back on his word."
Ren Yaoqi wasn't surprised to hear that it was Han Yunqian's intention, but she asked in surprise, "Oh? Is Young Master Han now the head of the Han family?"
Jiang pondered for a moment, then sighed, "Young Madam, you don't know that our old man's designated successor is not our master, but Young Master Han. I only found out about this after I married into the Han family. Although I am the second wife, I have to admit that Young Master Han is more suitable to lead the family than our master. To be honest, our old man is old after all. He is not as flexible as the young people in looking at things, so...so the people of the Han family are still willing to obey Young Master Han."
When Jiang said this, her tone was filled with resignation. She wasn't a woman without ambition, and she had imagined herself taking charge of the Han family after giving birth to a child. However, she knew in her heart that such a thought was nothing but wishful thinking. Even if she gave birth to a son now, he would be twenty years younger than Han Yunqian. When the old man was gone, she and her son would still have to make a living under Han Yunqian's control.
She still remembered what Han Yunqian had said yesterday. Han Yunqian had promised her that if she gave birth to a son, even if he became the head of the family, he would give her son the same share. If she had no children, the Han family would definitely not treat her unfairly.
Han Yunqian said this in front of Jiang Qianniang, meaning he made this promise in front of her family. Han Yunqian certainly didn't have the nerve to break his promise. Jiang thought about it and felt that this seemed to be the greatest benefit she could currently obtain for herself and her future child.
Ren Yaoqi looked at Jiang's complicated expression and could guess what she was thinking. She thought for a moment and said with a smile, "In that case, I'll wait and see how sincere Young Master Han is."
Speaking of this, Jiang's face showed some embarrassment again.
Ren Yaoqi saw him and asked with a smile, "Master Han, do you have anything else to convey?"
Jiang glanced at Jiang Qianniang. Then, hesitantly, she said to Ren Yaoqi, "Our young master also said that as a descendant, it's extremely unfilial for him to disobey his elders, so there are some things he has to do no matter what. He said he wanted to take back something from his ancestors..."
