Perhaps the hesitation and confusion of many days finally had an answer. Jiang seemed to feel relieved for no reason, as if a stone that had been hanging in the air had finally fallen to the ground. Even though he knew that the road would be difficult, he had made up his mind and would not regret it.
When Jiang Zhan heard this, he squeezed his eyes desperately at Jiang Si and said, "Fourth sister, how can you gamble on such an important matter as marriage?"
Have you forgotten Brother Yu Qi from Quezi Hutong?
Jiang Ancheng also disagreed with Jiang Si's decision: "Si'er, your father will find a way to solve your elder sister's problem. You can't mess around with your own marriage!"
Jiang Si looked at his father and brother's anxious expressions and chuckled: "Father, second brother, if I really marry into a better family than the Zhen family, you should be happy for me."
Jiang Zhan was so anxious that he started to curse: "What's the use of being happy! No matter how high your family background is, if the man is unreliable, what's the use? The families that my eldest and second sisters married were not bad, but what happened?"
If I had known this would happen, I should have helped Brother Yu Qi earlier. I regret it now.
Jiang Ancheng glanced at Jiang Zhan with rare admiration and nodded repeatedly: "Your second brother is right. Family background is just the icing on the cake. Whether you can live a good life or not depends on whether the person you marry is reliable."
"But people of humble origins are not trustworthy, perhaps even less trustworthy." Jiang Si said indifferently.
The status of one's birth is relative. In the eyes of the Bo's family, the eldest sister and Zhu Ziyu are a good match, while compared to Cui Mingyue, Zhu Ziyu's birth is slightly lower.
Zhu Ziyu had the idea of currying favor with the rich and powerful, which led him to have the evil intention of murdering his wife.
As for ordinary families, it is not uncommon for a man to send his wife to someone else to sleep with because of his greed and gambling...
As these thoughts flashed through his mind, Jiang Si was suddenly stunned.
After being reborn, she seemed to have problems with every man she saw, but Yu Qi became the most reliable person.
When did she have such a dangerous idea? Miss Jiang despised herself silently.
Jiang Si's words stumped Jiang Ancheng.
Yes, who says people of humble origins are more reliable? Once such people get a chance, they might give up everything and climb up...
Mrs. Feng looked at Jiang Si with some admiration in her eyes.
I didn't expect that the fourth girl was so insightful in this regard.
"Don't worry, father. I won't joke about my life. Right now, it's most important to resolve my eldest sister's issue."
When talking about Jiang Yi, the atmosphere suddenly became depressing.
A maid walked in quickly and said, "Madam, is there someone coming from the palace?"
"In the palace?" Madam Feng was stunned for a moment, then she straightened her clothes and walked out with the help of her maid.
The person who came into the palace was a young eunuch. Old Madam Feng took a close look at him and her expression changed slightly.
This is the father-in-law beside the Queen Mother.
"Madam, please let me speak to you for a moment." The eunuch spoke in a shrill voice.
Jiang Si and his sister were sent away by Old Madam Feng.
Jiang Zhan kept turning his head, worry on his face, and whispered, "Fourth sister, why did someone come to the palace?"
Jiang Si pursed her lips and said calmly, "It's all for Cui Mingyue."
Jiang Zhan paused: "Miss Cui has caused such a scandal, does the palace want to suppress it?"
Jiang Si looked back at Ci Xin Tang and sighed, "Cui Mingyue is the emperor's niece and the empress dowager's granddaughter. If this scandal is not suppressed, will it become known to everyone? Even if people know who the woman is, at least they can't mention it openly."
"Isn't this a bargain for her?"
"You can't eat a fat man in one bite. It's okay as long as Zhu Ziyu can't get the upper hand." Jiang Si was very open-minded about this.
There is a natural gap in status here, and some things cannot be rushed.
Furthermore, even if the royal family suppressed Cui Mingyue’s scandal and did not allow it to be mentioned in public, her reputation was completely ruined, and it would be unlikely for her to enter the palace or attend any formal occasions in the future.
For a gifted girl like Cui Mingyue, falling into such a situation would be more painful than death.
Jiang Si suddenly thought of something and glanced at Jiang Zhan: "How did Second Brother know Cui Mingyue?"
"ah?"
Jiang Si found it more and more strange, and his bright black eyes narrowed slightly.
Under his sister's scrutiny, Jiang Zhan's ears turned red. He looked around to see if there was anyone around and whispered, "It seems Cui Mingyue is planning to use her beauty trap on me..."
Jiang Si slipped and nearly fell.
Jiang Zhan hurriedly supported her and said angrily, "Why did Fourth Sister react so strongly?"
Jiang Si calmed down for a moment, and said with a smile: "I think it's good that Second Brother is not tempted by beauty. Men like Second Brother are rare."
But my heart was already filled with rage.
Cui Mingyue is really something. Not only did she play with Zhu Ziyu, she even didn't let her second brother go. This account will be settled sooner or later!
Jiang Zhan sighed heavily: "It doesn't matter if I'm good or bad, I'll just be a bargain for other girls. But fourth sister, if you want to get married, you must open your eyes and see clearly. You can't ruin yourself just for the bet with grandmother."
Jiang Si was amused by Jiang Zhan: "You're taking advantage of someone else's daughter? Second brother, you're not ashamed to brag about yourself like this."
Jiang Zhan, however, couldn't laugh at all.
Seeing the cruel treatment that Jiang Qian and Jiang Yi suffered, he was extremely worried about his only sister.
If my sister meets a scumbag like Cao Xingyu and Zhu Ziyu, it would be better for her not to marry and let him support her for the rest of her life.
Seeing Jiang Zhan's sad face, Jiang Si felt a surge of warmth in his heart and said softly, "Second brother, don't worry. I'll be fine."
Jiang Zhan raised his hand to ruffle his sister's hair, but found that her hair was a little complicated today. He was afraid he would be scolded if he ruffled it, so he put his hand down in dismay and sighed, "Go see big sister."
In Haitangju, Jiang Yi has recovered as usual.
She didn't think much about her sudden inability to move.
When a person is extremely sad and feels like he is dying, it is not strange for his body to suddenly show abnormalities.
When Jiang Si and his sister came in, they saw Jiang Yi leaning against the screen in a daze with a wooden expression.
The brother and sister looked at each other and walked over side by side.
"Big sister." Jiang Zhan called out.
Jiang Yi's eyes moved slightly and she looked at Jiang Zhan.
"Sister, don't be sad. It's not worth it for someone like Zhu Ziyu."
Jiang Yi lowered her eyes and said nothing.
"Big sister, just stay at home and rest assured. I will do my best in the Jinwu Guard and be a support for you and your fourth sister in the future."
Jiang Yi fluttered her eyelashes, tears streaming down her face, but she still didn't speak.
Jiang Zhan looked at Jiang Si helplessly.
Jiang Si sat down next to Jiang Yi and held her hand: "Sister, are you thinking about Yanyan?"
When Yanyan was mentioned, Jiang Yi's face was immediately filled with pain, and the hand held by Jiang Si began to tremble.
"Sister, I promise you that I will let Yanyan come to you, so you should cheer up first and don't ruin your body, okay?"
"Yan Yan... can you really follow me?" Jiang Yi was like a puppet that was suddenly injected with life and finally responded.
"must!"
After Jiang Si comforted Jiang Yi, he went to the study and told Ah Man in a cold tone, "Call Qing'er over."
