"In a good mood?" Xiao sighed, "Fourth Miss, if you knew what happened last night, you wouldn't say that."
Jiang seemed to be confused.
Xiao felt more and more relieved, but a look of sorrow appeared on her face. She wiped her eyes with a handkerchief and said, "Alas, how can I tell you this?"
Madam Feng was already impatient and said, "Go back and change your clothes."
Although she didn't think much of her second grandson, he was the third-generation male in the Bo family. At that time, people valued having many sons and grandsons, and the more males a family had, the more prosperous it would be.
Besides, even if Jiang Zhan is a loser, who knows if there won’t be some of his descendants who will bring honor to the family in the future?
Therefore, Madam Feng was not in a very good mood at the moment, and the ginger-red skirt was particularly dazzling.
Jiang Si looked down and said puzzledly: "I don't know what's wrong with my granddaughter——"
"Your second brother fell into the water last night and his whereabouts are still unknown!" Old Madam Feng said unhappily.
Previously, seeing that the son of the neighboring Yongchang Earl was quite close to Jiang Si, Old Madam Feng re-evaluated the importance of this granddaughter in her heart, and later hinted to Jiang Si many times that he should often hang out with the eldest daughter of the Yongchang Earl's mansion.
However, Jiang Si seemed to be a stubborn person and never went there again since he came back from Yongchang Earl's Mansion that day.
Although Old Lady Feng still had some thoughts in her heart, she became increasingly dissatisfied with Jiang Si's lack of interest. When something happened in the Marquis Yining's Mansion, Jiang Si was dragged into it. Although Jiang Si was finally proven innocent, Old Lady Feng knew that from then on, this granddaughter would not be able to get a good deal in the Marquis Yining's Mansion, and her thoughts on her faded.
It has to be said that Madam Feng is a very practical person. When a person's weight in her heart decreases, her attitude will naturally change.
Jiang Si slightly widened his eyes, showing his shock just right, and murmured, "Does Second Brother have any news now? Why did you tell me now?"
Xiao felt happy when she saw Jiang seemed to have suffered a great blow.
She had never taken Jiang Si seriously before, but she didn't know when it started and she always suffered losses whenever she came across this girl. This humiliation was really hard to swallow.
With her only brother gone, her family has lost a major supporter. She wants to see how this girl can still be so proud.
Xiao thought so in her heart, but her face was full of concern: "Your father, uncle and eldest brother rushed to the Jinshui River as soon as they got the news. There is no news about your second brother yet. The reason why I told you now is that your father was afraid that you would not be able to sleep well at night if you knew about it. Alas, parents are pitiful. If something happens to your second brother, what will your father do?"
"Auntie really wants something to happen to my brother?" Jiang Si's pretty face darkened and she asked indifferently.
Xiao's expression twisted instantly, and she said unhappily, "Fourth Miss, I have watched your second brother grow up, and he is not much different from your eldest brother and third brother. How could I hope that something bad would happen to your second brother? You are really disappointing to me by saying that."
"Uh." Jiang Si blurted out a word.
Xiao choked and gritted her teeth secretly.
This girl is so infuriating that she simply deserves death!
Thinking of Jiang Zhan's fate, Xiao's anger subsided a lot, and she advised: "Fourth Miss, listen to the old lady and change your clothes quickly."
Jiang Si straightened his clothes and said calmly, "I won't change."
"Fourth girl!" Old Madam Feng shouted unhappily.
Jiang Si raised her chin slightly and said, "Grandma, what kind of clothes do you want your granddaughter to change into? Do you want me to change into a white skirt?"
Old Madam Feng was stunned by the question.
Jiang Si turned his eyes to look at Xiao and sneered, "There is no news about my second brother yet, but my second aunt has urged my grandmother to ask me to change my clothes. I wonder what she is up to? If it was my eldest brother who fell into the water last night, and my second aunt saw me wearing plain clothes this morning, wouldn't she think it was unlucky?"
When Xiao heard Jiang Si actually used her eldest son as an example, she was so angry that her face turned pale: "Fourth Miss, what are you talking about? Do you still take me, your aunt, seriously?"
The Third Madam, Mrs. Guo, who was standing by, could not help but try to smooth things over: "Second sister-in-law, please stop talking. The Fourth Young Master is in trouble, and the Fourth Young Lady is also upset."
Xiao sneered and said nothing more.
There was no need for her to engage in an argument with this brat at this moment. It was Jiang Zhan who died anyway, so let's see who would cry then!
"I came to pay my respects to you this morning. After putting on this pomegranate skirt, I felt happy, as if something good would happen. I believe this is a good omen, so I will not change the skirt." Jiang Si said firmly, kneeling before Madam Feng, "Grandma, please don't embarrass your granddaughter."
"You--" Old Madam Feng was annoyed by Jiang Si's tough attitude towards his elders, which made her feel offended.
Jiang Si remained calm and waited for Madam Feng to get angry.
Grandma's attitude has been a little strange these days, as if she has something on her mind. She can't just act weak and let others think she is a doughy person who can be manipulated at will.
Everyone in the mansion seemed to have forgotten that, even in her previous life, she had never been that kind of gentle and lovely girl.
"Okay, then wait for news from your father and the others!" Old Madam Feng said angrily.
She didn't want to waste time arguing with a little girl now, and would wait until she got news about her second grandson.
"If something happened to your second brother——"
If she got bad news, she would definitely teach the girl a lesson.
Jiang Si smiled and said, "Don't worry, grandma. My second brother is a good man. Good people will be rewarded."
As she spoke, her eyes casually glanced at the Xiao family: "As for those evil people, God will punish them."
Xiao was furious.
Isn't this just blaming someone for something else? This little bastard is really abominable!
But he is a fool after all. Fortunately, good things will come to those who do good. Jiang Zhan has been in the water for so long, his body must be swollen by now.
Guo watched coldly and sighed silently.
The fourth girl was unwilling to believe the fact that something had happened to the second young master, and would rather contradict the old lady than change her clothes, as if that would make everything fine.
Alas, it is so pitiful and lamentable.
Old Madam Feng was too lazy to say another word to Jiang Si. She closed her eyes slightly and turned her Buddhist beads one by one.
Jiang Si didn't care about what other people were thinking. She just wanted to know how her second brother was being "taken care of" by Yu Qi.
Jiang Zhan was awake by now. The hangover gave him a splitting headache. He couldn't help rubbing his eyes when he saw the person in front of him clearly: "Why did Brother Yu Qi show up? I must not be awake yet."
"Brother, you're in big trouble." Yu Jin patted Jiang Zhan's shoulder heavily.
Jiang Zhan was startled: "Brother Yu Qi, what have I gotten myself into?"
Yu Jin sighed: "You don't remember anything about last night?"
Jiang Zhan was stunned and lost in his memories.
Last night he and Yang Shengcai were drinking together. After they had drunk quite a lot, Yang Shengcai said he wanted to try something else, but he actually bit his ear. He got angry and started beating him, and then -
Jiang Zhan pounded his head lightly.
He had no recollection of what happened afterwards.
Jiang Zhan looked at Yu Jin for help.
Yu Jin's face was extremely heavy: "I never thought that Jiang Erdi would be taken advantage of so much by someone, and that person is a man!"
Well, Jiang Zhan’s ability to talk in his sleep is indeed an advantage.
