Jiang Zhan played with the empty teacup, waiting for Jiang Si to follow up with questions.

Jiang seemed to be angry and amused, but more of it was fear.

"So, it was a third person who saved my second brother?"

"Yes, he is my lifesaver! I should have invited him to the best restaurant in Beijing for a drink, but since my sister is still waiting for me at home, I can only come to thank him another day." Jiang Zhan put down the teacup with a look of regret, "How rude."

Jiang Si asked about what happened in detail and couldn't help but worry about Jiang Zhan.

The person who wants to kill my brother is most likely the one who framed Niu Yushi. Once the other party sees my brother's appearance, will he do something bad to him in the future?

"My second brother said he wanted to come and thank you. Does that mean you know the name and address of the person who saved my life?"

"Yes, his name is Yu Qi. Coincidentally, he lives in Quezi Hutong, not far from our home—"

Jiang Si didn't hear a word of what was said afterwards. He grabbed Jiang Zhan's sleeve, and the veins on the back of his hand bulged because he used too much force: "Is his name really Yu Qi?"

Jiang Zhan looked at Jiang Si in surprise, and asked in confusion, "What happened to Fourth Sister?"

Jiang Siyou came back to his senses, let go of Jiang Zhan's sleeve, and tried to hide his gaffe by raising his hands to tuck his hair behind his ears. However, his face was still pale and it was difficult for him to recover for a while.

Jiang Zhan looked at Jiang Si suspiciously: "Could it be that my sister knows Yu Qi?"

Jiang Si forced a smile, but the words "Yu Qi" kept lingering in her mind, making her uneasy.

"What does the remaining seven look like?"

"Ah?" Jiang Zhan blinked.

Strange, why does my sister ask a man what he looks like?

Seeing that Jiang Zhan didn't say anything, Jiang Si asked again: "Is he extremely good-looking, and a rare handsome man?"

Jiang Zhan didn't want to talk anymore.

No wonder my sister is so curious about Yu Qi Ge, it turns out that she has seen him before. Yu Qi Ge is so handsome, it is normal for my sister to be unable to forget him.

If my sister knew that the remaining seven were the remaining seven, wouldn't she have the opportunity to come into contact with them?

This won't do. The fact that Yu Qi Ge can be seen near brothels shows that he is a playboy. Although such a person is a like-minded friend, he is not satisfied with him as a brother-in-law.

"No, Brother Yu Qi is a big and strong man, otherwise how could he save your second brother from the dire straits?" Jiang Zhan secretly gave a thumbs up to his own wit.

Jiang seemed to be relieved, and smiled more relaxedly: "Then second brother, remember to treat me to a drink. A drop of water should be repaid with a spring, let alone the grace of saving my life."

It seems that she is too sensitive. There are countless men with the surname Yu and ranked seventh in this world, not to mention that the Yu Qi she knows is just a pseudonym.

"Fourth sister, do you also know someone named Yu Qi?" Jiang Zhan asked worriedly.

"I once ran into a man called Yu Qi when I was out and about. We had some unpleasantness at the time, so I have some impression of him."

"That man is as handsome as Pan An?"

Is he as handsome as Pan An? Jiang Si couldn't help but recall.

That person was indeed extremely beautiful, shining like a bright pearl. She had only read about Pan An's appearance in books, so if she had to compare them... to be fair, that person should be less feminine and more handsome than Pan An.

But what does it matter if she has a good appearance? The "Yu Qi" she knew was a jerk.

"No, that man has a fierce face and looks ferocious. He is not a good person." A string of bad words came out of Jiang Si's mouth.

"Then we must be seeing different people. Although Brother Yu Qi is a big and strong man, he looks like a good guy."

"Let's not talk about this for now. Second brother, don't create unnecessary trouble when doing things in the future. If someone sees your face this time, you might get into trouble." Jiang Si's worry has not been eliminated.

“Once that person knows that I’m the second son of the Duke of Dongping’s Mansion, he won’t dare to come here again.” Jiang Zhan said indifferently.

He wasn't brought up to be scared, so he can't just stay at home and not go out because of this.

Furthermore, no matter how high the status of the Duke of Dongping's Mansion was among the nobles, the sudden death of a young master would certainly cause panic, which is different from the silent death of a commoner.

"In short, second brother, go out less often in the future, and be careful when you go out."

Jiang Si suddenly remembered that in his previous life, Jiang Zhan's death was caused by a playboy named Yang Shengcai, and Yang Shengcai was the grandson of the Minister of Rites...

Is there any connection between them?

That’s not right. In her previous life, she didn’t let her second brother go to the dark alley in Bichun Building.

"Girl——" A Man's voice came from outside the door.

Jiang Si collected his thoughts and called Ah Man in.

Ah Man walked quickly to Jiang Si's side and said, "Miss, the second master is back and is helping the first master count the betrothal gifts."

"Second uncle is really up to no good!" Jiang Zhan said hatefully.

His second uncle is usually kind, but he is the most filial to his grandmother and will definitely listen to her on this matter.

"Go and take a look." Jiang Si stood up and walked out.

Jiang Zhan hurried to follow.

The betrothal gifts sent by the Anguo Mansion were placed in the small storeroom of Huaming Hall. In front of the storeroom, Jiang Ancheng was angry: "Second brother, get out of my way quickly and don't delay me from going to the Anguo Mansion to cancel the engagement!"

A gentle voice came: "Brother, please listen to me first. I know everything. It's just that the boy from the Anguo Mansion was young and ignorant and did something stupid. Just solve it properly."

"How to solve it?"

"The Duke's Mansion wants that girl to be a concubine. Not only is Big Brother angry, but I, as your second uncle, am also dissatisfied. Just give some money to a commoner girl. When Si'er marries her, won't that brat behave himself based on Si'er's talent? Big Brother, canceling the engagement is not a wise move. You can only make Si'er happy now, but what will happen to her in the future?"

Jiang Si stood quietly not far away, and after listening to what Old Master Jiang said, he almost couldn't help clapping his hands.

Second uncle is really good at speaking!

Jiang Zhan was about to speak when Jiang Si gently pulled him and walked forward.

"Si'er is here." When Old Master Jiang Er saw Jiang Si coming over, he smiled gently.

Jiang Si bent her knees and said bluntly: "Second uncle, don't worry about your niece. In my opinion, being able to stay away from a man like the Third Master Ji is something I should be happy about even if I live as an old maid for the rest of my life."

"Si'er, you are still young, how can you understand the difficulties of being an old maid——"

Jiang Si smiled sweetly at Jiang Ancheng: "Father, if my daughter wants to be a maid for the rest of her life, would you be willing to support her?"

"Of course I'd love to!" Jiang Ancheng said without hesitation.

Jiang Zhan followed closely and patted his chest: "Don't worry, Fourth Sister, if you really don't want to get married, you still have your brother. I will beat anyone who dares to gossip!"

The smile on Jiang Si's lips became more and more genuine.

Neither her father nor her brother were smart people, and they might even make wrong judgments based on other people's eloquence, but their love for her was pure.

"Look, uncle, my father and my second brother don't dislike me. Or do you think it's embarrassing for you that your niece can't get married?"

Jiang Ancheng stared at Old Master Jiang Er with a bad look.

He hasn't even given up on his girlfriend yet, so who are others to think they are? Why should they give up on her for him?

"Why do you say that? Uncle didn't mean that—"

Jiang Ancheng raised his leg and kicked Jiang Zhan: "I asked you to help me, where have you been? Why don't you get back to work!"

Mr. Jiang Er was so embarrassed by Jiang Si's persuasion that he couldn't speak. He stood there with a sullen face, watching Jiang Ancheng and his son directing the servants to carry the betrothal gifts.

"Uncle, please move aside. It would be bad if your feet are hit." Jiang Si said with a smile.

Old Master Jiang stared at Jiang Si for a long while before he smiled and left.

Second uncle has such a good temper, he's not even angry.

A faint smile flashed across Jiang Si's lips.

Meanwhile, Guo returned to the Anguo Mansion, but her carriage was stopped by the servants: "We are not seeing guests today. Please come back another day."

The servants of the Duke of Anguo's Mansion naturally did not recognize the ordinary carriage that was hired temporarily.

"Look carefully, it's the prince's wife in the car!" Guo's maid lifted the car window curtain and shouted.

The doorman was startled and hurriedly opened the door.

Guo went straight to Lady Wei, the wife of Duke Anguo.

"So, is the deal settled?" Wei asked tiredly.
