The pothos plant is amazing.
Why is her daughter sleeping on the floor, while the young master is lying on the canopy bed, which was supposed to be part of the daughter's dowry and was carved from huanghuali wood by the best craftsmen the lady had hired?
Did her daughter lie on the floor all night last night?
So surprised was Green Luo that she actually called out Jiang Xuelin's name from her home. You see, ever since Jiang Xuelin married into the Prince Ping's mansion, all the maids she brought with her had been instructed by Granny Cai to call her "Princess Consort" and not "Miss" anymore.
The old woman who had come to deliver the message after hearing the Princess Consort's instructions heard the sound of a water basin falling to the ground inside, and then heard Green Ivy's obviously out-of-control cries. Startled, she quickly came in to see what had happened.
Then she was shocked by Jiang Xuelin on the ground and Fu Hanlai, who was still sleepy on the bed.
She knew that her young master was a reckless and unruly man, and she also knew that his relationship with the Jiang family girl was rather delicate. Now that the Jiang family girl had married into the family, the young master might make things difficult for her, but she never expected that her young master would go so far!
First, rumors spread that the Jiang family's daughter had run away from her arranged marriage, and even revealed it in front of the guests on her wedding night. Now, she's even forcing the Crown Princess to give up her bed.
“…Granny, let me explain.” Fu Hanlai, who was holding a quilt, hesitated and tried to explain when he saw the nanny next to Princess Ping.
The old woman smiled respectfully, "Your Highness is too kind. I am but a servant girl and do not deserve such words from you. The Princess is waiting for my reply, so I will take my leave now."
Fu Hanlai: "..."
well.
Jiang Xuelin suppressed a laugh, feigning innocence and pretending not to know anything, and did not offer any explanation for Fu Han.
They were clearly just watching the show.
As soon as the old woman left, she got up and asked Green Ivy to bring in more water. She didn't explain anything, and judging from her expression, the old woman and the other maids knew that there was something they didn't know, so they didn't ask anything.
Fu Hanlai was furious, but there was nothing he could do. Jiang Xuelin had simply not spoken up for him; she hadn't done anything else. Besides, he couldn't very well say that he liked sleeping on the floor, could he?
She gave him a fierce "you just wait" look, and Fu Hanlai angrily packed up. Sure enough, a little while later, Princess Ping sent someone over again, this time to see Fu Hanlai, not Jiang Xuelin.
Fu Hanlai: "..."
well.
Why does it feel like he's not my biological son?
Jiang Xuelin was not idle when Fu Hanlai was summoned away by the Princess Consort of Ping; instead, she was working.
She's currently staying in the Prince's residence and won't be leaving, so it's inconvenient for her to retaliate. Naturally, she needs to prepare for her future work in advance, and she can't just have no plan and only one idea.
Although she currently only has one idea.
"There's less than a month until Qing'er's wedding. Zilu, go find that set of cloisonné magpie and plum blossom hairpins from my dowry, and have someone send them to Qing'er in a few days." Jiang Xuelin, who was writing and drawing on a piece of paper, suddenly looked up at Zilu, who was waiting beside her, and said.
"Yes, I understand. Will it be sent to the Yongchang Marquis's residence in a few days?" Zilu curtsied and then confirmed.
You should know that on the day of the girl's wedding, the second daughter of the Fei family personally came to deliver gifts, and she thought that the girl would go to the Yongchang Marquis's mansion.
After all, the second daughter of the Fei family was getting married that day, so it was indeed inconvenient for her to go out.
Jiang Xuelin lowered her head again and continued to think about the next arrangements. "Well, I'll send it over in a few days. By the way, please tell Qing'er that I'm sorry I won't be going to her wedding."
Although she is now married and it is much more convenient for her to go out, even if she wanted to send Fei Qing off to her wedding, Princess Ping probably wouldn't have any objections, but Jiang Xuelin has no intention of going.
She hadn't forgotten the scheme she'd been plotted against at the Yongchang Marquis's residence, and besides, Fei Qing would be the Third Prince's consort in the future. Even because of the Third Prince, Jiang Xuelin wouldn't get too close to her.
She saw and remembered everything the Consort Gui made things difficult for her in the palace, the Third Prince's faction's schemes against her, and their schemes against the Marquis of Jing'an's mansion. She wasn't so naive as to think that she could still maintain the same relationship with her sister Qiong'er under such circumstances.
All I can say is that we should all be well. With Qing'er's intelligence, her future will surely be bright.
"Yes, Your Highness, I have remembered."
The maids and servants around him were keeping him company, and the whole main courtyard was quiet.
Looking at her young lady's serene profile, Granny Cai couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache. She felt that this kind of girl was not as good as when the young master was around. Although she was a bit more boisterous and even made them feel helpless, she was still more vibrant then.
The girl herself may not have realized that she was really relaxed in front of the prince. Although she was always at odds with him, she didn't need to suppress herself. Her smile was so pleasing to the eye.
The lady insisted on the marriage because of the relationship between the young lady and the young master, but neither of them seemed to understand, which made the onlooker, Granny Cai, feel helpless.
Granny Cai especially loved the way her young lady and the young master bickered; it was so vivid.
She was not born into the Jing'an Marquis's household; she was a law-abiding citizen. Her husband was a soldier under the Jing'an Marquis, and after his death, he left her and her newborn daughter, Zilu. The two were bullied by the village, but the Jing'an Marquis's wife reached out and protected them, making her the girl's wet nurse.
They didn't sign contracts of servitude, but rather employment contracts. In a sense, it wasn't exactly slavery, but neither of them intended to leave.
She had seen all kinds of girls before, from country girls to noble ladies, but her daughter was a rare exception.
