Chapter 17 Second Cousin



"What the hell, lovers finally get married. I think it's a loser who deserves a loser, forever and ever."

Jiang Si chuckled: "They all mean the same thing."

Jiang Zhan burst into laughter.

My sister is really getting more and more irritable towards him.

Jiang Zhan stopped laughing and asked Jiang Si curiously, "How did Fourth Sister know that Ji Chongyi couldn't marry a noblewoman?"

Jiang Si smiled and asked him, "Could it be that Second Brother worked in vain yesterday?"

"Sister is so awesome..." Jiang Zhan's eyes lit up.

Jiang Si smiled and said, "It's not that I'm so good, it's all thanks to my second brother's help."

Jiang Zhan chuckled: "That's true."

Ah Qiao lowered her head to hold back her laughter. Ah Man came in from outside, pulling back the curtain. "Miss, the elder sister from Ci Xin Hall came to tell you that the old lady wants you to come over. She said the second young lady is back."

There are three branches in the Dongping Marquis's Mansion. Jiang Si's father, Jiang Ancheng, is the eldest son, and the second daughter is the daughter of the second old master Jiang.

Currently, there are two married girls in the Bo's Mansion. The eldest girl, Jiang Yi, married to Zhu's family, the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple, and the second girl, Jiang Qian, married to the son of Changxing Hou.

In the eyes of everyone in the Bo's house, the second young lady had married very well, if it were not for the comparison with Jiang Si's later marriage.

The second girl, Jiang Qian, was beautiful and clever. She was the most favored by Old Lady Feng among the six girls in the Bo's Mansion. Jiang Si had previously been willing to get close to this outstanding cousin, but after hearing Ah Man's report, she felt a little uncomfortable.

If possible, she doesn't want to see Jiang Qian's face again in her life!

But now is not the time to be willful. My grandmother has sent someone to invite me, and as a granddaughter, I have no right to refuse without a valid reason.

What's more, her grandmother was furious about her breaking off the engagement and was waiting to find fault with the eldest wife.

Jiang Si was not afraid of Madam Feng's coldness towards her, but she did not want her father, whose temples were beginning to turn gray, to be scolded by her grandmother.

"Brother, do you want to come with me?" Jiang Si stood up.

Jiang Zhan shook his head hurriedly: "I won't join in the fun, we are all girls, it's troublesome."

He doesn't like his adorable second cousin at all!

What? His fourth sister is also cute?

Haha, a younger sister is supposed to be spoiled and protected by her older brother, how can an older sister be the same!

Jiang Zhan waved his hand and walked away with an impatient look on his handsome face.

He just wanted to go have a drink with Brother Yu Qi!

Jiang Si took Ah Man to Ci Xin Hall. As they approached the door, they heard the laughter of Old Madam Feng.

"Grandma, you should smile more often. Nothing is more important than your health." The voice of a young woman came.

"You are just sweet-talker." Mrs. Feng's voice was full of love.

"Second Aunt, please come back often. The old lady will be in a good mood when she sees you."

Jiang Si knew without even looking that the one who was having fun was Mama Feng, her grandmother's trusted maid.

"The fourth girl is here." Ah Fu shouted, and the room suddenly became quiet, with several eyes cast over.

"Granddaughter meets grandmother." Jiang Si greeted Madam Feng.

Madam Feng raised her eyelids and said in a cold tone: "Come and sit down. Your second sister came back specially to see you."

Jiang Si calmed himself down and looked at the woman sitting next to Old Madam Feng.

Jiang Qian had her hair tied up in a loose bun, with willow-shaped eyebrows, an oval face, and an amiable temperament. The ruby ​​earrings and the gold hairpin inlaid with rubies in her hair complemented each other, revealing the brightness of a young lady.

Jiang Siben thought that he had prepared himself mentally after walking all the way from Haitangju to Cixintang, but when he met Jiang Qian's smiling eyes, his heart suddenly skipped a beat and hatred surged up uncontrollably.

In her previous life, she had let many people down, and many people had let her down, but no matter how much hatred and resentment she had, she had never felt as hateful as she did when facing Jiang Qian.

At that time, she always complained about her father and brothers being incompetent and her eldest sister being cowardly, and was very close to her gentle and kind second cousin. So much so that when Jiang Qian sent someone to say that she was not feeling well and wanted to see her six months after she became a widow, she went to visit her without hesitation.

As a result, in the compartment of the room where Jiang Qian met, the Prince of Changxing, her second brother-in-law, who had been waiting there, pounced on him like a hungry wolf seeing its prey.

At that time, her good second sister blocked her way without leaving any trace.

Whenever Jiang Si thought about what happened that day, he was overwhelmed by disgust.

She could hardly recall how she escaped. Although she retained her innocence, the humiliation and fear lingered, and she woke up crying from nightmares countless times.

Jiang Si stared at Jiang Qian's smiling face and almost asked the question that had troubled her for years.

Why? Why on earth would a woman help her husband to rape her own sister?

"Jiang Si, where are your rules? You didn't even say hello when you saw your second sister?" Old Madam Feng said dissatisfiedly.

Jiang Qian reached out and held Jiang Si's hand.

The coolness of the girl's fingertips made Jiang Qian's eyebrows slightly raise: "Fourth sister, you have been wronged."

Jiang Si suddenly pulled his hand back.

"Fourth sister?" Jiang Qian was surprised.

Old Madam Feng looked increasingly dissatisfied.

"I don't feel wronged. Second sister, you don't need to sympathize with me." Jiang Si said lightly.

She had always been competitive, but she had never shown it to Jiang Qian before. So, saying this now, besides being unpleasant, did not seem abrupt at all.

"Jiang Si, apologize to your second sister!" Old Madam Feng scolded.

Jiang Qian regained her gentle smile after a moment: "Grandma, please don't be angry with Fourth Sister. Fourth Sister was rejected from the engagement, and she feels bad--"

"No, I feel pretty good." Jiang Si interrupted Jiang Qian without any hesitation.

Although she couldn't slap Jiang Qian in the face right away, she didn't want to play the role of sisterly love anymore.

Jiang Si looked at Jiang Qian's pale face and smiled, "On the contrary, it's my second sister who keeps bringing it up, which makes me feel uncomfortable."

Jiang Qian's body trembled slightly, and the smile on her face could hardly be maintained.

"Jiang Si, are you crazy? As soon as your second sister heard about you, she hurried back to see you, but what about you? You don't even have the slightest bit of gratitude! Apologize to your second sister immediately!" Old Madam Feng slapped the tea table suddenly, and the teacup on the table shook, spilling the tea.

Jiang Si looked innocent: "Grandma, what's wrong? My second sister and I didn't fight or argue. We just spoke from the bottom of our hearts. Why should I apologize to my second sister for no reason?"

After she finished speaking, she turned her head to look at Jiang Qian: "Second sister, did I offend you?"

"No offense..." Jiang Qian forced a smile, staring at Jiang Si's profile in a daze.

Her sister is really blessed with beauty!

Yesterday, after hearing that the Anguogong Mansion and the Dongpingbo Mansion had broken off the engagement, her husband, the Changxinghou Prince, sighed: "Such a beauty, Ji San is unlucky!"

"Fourth sister, did you miss elder sister when you saw me, so you feel uncomfortable?" Jiang Qian didn't want to quarrel with Jiang Si, and quickly raised the corners of her lips, "Fourth sister, don't worry, elder sister may be here soon."

Haha, if Jiang Yiru could come and see Jiang Si, her name “Qian” would be written upside down.

Jiang Si sneered in his heart.

Unfortunately, she was blinded by her own shit and didn't realize that Jiang Qian was so skilled in sowing discord.

The eldest sister was cowardly, and she had only one daughter after being married for several years. She had a hard time in her husband's family. It was not a glorious thing for her to break off the engagement. Under such circumstances, the eldest sister wanted to come back to see her but she was powerless.

"I'll go see my eldest sister if I miss her. My second sister misses me so much."

"Fourth sister——" This time, Jiang Qian couldn't laugh anymore.

Madam Feng was furious: "Jiang Si, are you possessed today? You are confronting your second sister everywhere!"

"Grandma, did you have a nightmare last night?" Jiang Si asked suddenly, ignoring Madam Feng's anger.

Old Madam Feng was startled.

How could the fourth girl know that she was having a nightmare?
