Chapter 46: Little Miracle Doctor Jiang Nansheng
Boxes of things were continuously moved out of the mansion, and all the guests stared in amazement.
When Zhao Shuning entered the house, she did not have a decent dowry because her dowry had been converted into silver to subsidize the Marquis's Mansion.
In order to save face, they only prepared a dozen mahogany boxes to hold clothes, bedding and other items, which the servants lifted easily.
At this time, Lu Zhiran's dowry not only crushed Zhao Shuning in terms of quantity, but it was also quite difficult for the servants to lift it up. It was made of real materials.
Zhao Shuning's eyes were blazing with jealousy.
Cui Fu and Dan Yan's eyes sparkled, "Miss, the dowry has been counted, and most of our things will be returned."
He lowered his voice again, "Thanks to the Seventh Prince's men watching over us, otherwise things wouldn't have gone so smoothly. The Seventh Prince is different from the rumors, he's truly a good man."
Lu Zhiran looked in the direction of Xiao Yanci. His profile was very attractive, with a high nose bridge and strong features.
Looking back on the past two lives, Lu Zhiran heard most of the comments about him were negative, which made people avoid him as much as possible.
But after this brief contact today, Lu Zhiran didn't have a bad impression of him, and even had a very good one.
After experiencing the events of his previous life, Lu Zhiran understood one thing: when judging a person, one should not just look at the surface.
Those who appear to be righteous on the surface actually harbor many despicable and dirty thoughts.
Those evil people in the eyes of the world may just be misdefined by some people with ulterior motives.
Xiao Yanci turned his head and met Lu Zhiran's eyes.
His eyes were like obsidian, deep and bottomless.
After a brief moment of hesitation, Lu Zhiran gave him a grateful smile.
If someone else had delivered the decree, things would not have gone so smoothly.
Xiao Yanci stood up, patted the melon seed shells on his body, and walked towards her.
"Have you counted the dowry?"
Lu Zhiran nodded, "I've finished the inventory, thank you."
Xiao Yanci smiled faintly, "It's my job. By the way, Madam Hou, don't forget to go to Jingzhao Prefecture to cooperate with the investigation. Lord Fu is very discerning and will definitely not wrongly accuse an innocent person."
Jiang's body trembled instinctively.
He is warning himself not to get away with it.
Lu Zhiran didn't stay long. She bowed to Xiao Yanci and took her leave. As for the Chu family, she didn't even look at them.
Xiao Yanci looked at Chu Yian and said sincerely, "I am in a hurry to return and report, so I won't drink the wedding wine. Lord Chu, I wish you a happy marriage and a long and happy life together."
Chu Yian: ...
Everyone: The Seventh Prince is really mean!
"Xiaojiu, let's go."
Xiao Baozhu, who was crackling melon seeds, stood up swiftly. She had seen all the good shows she wanted to watch, and there was nothing good to stay here.
The most difficult brother and sister were finally leaving, and everyone in the Chu family breathed a sigh of relief.
But it was too early to relax, as two guests walked towards them. They were Concubine Li's brother Li Mingyuan and his wife Zheng.
"My Lord, my wife has had a headache after being caught in a cold wind, so I'll take my leave now."
Chu Dingfeng tried to persuade them to stay, but the two of them didn't give him any chance at all. They just turned around and left.
Soon, other guests came forward to take their leave.
In just half a quarter of an hour, most of the guests had left.
The rest, apart from the relatives of the Marquis, were Chu Yian's comrades.
The atmosphere was terribly cold and the scene was extremely awkward.
The bridesmaid spoke weakly, "My Lord, Madam, is this, is the ceremony still going on?"
Chu Dingfeng angrily swung his sleeves, "What's the point of continuing? If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have held this wedding banquet in the first place!"
After saying that, he turned his sleeves and left.
Chu Yunqing had also completely lost face in front of the other ladies today. She rushed to Zhao Shuning and roared, "It's all your fault. If you hadn't insisted on holding the wedding banquet, it wouldn't have turned out like this! You're such a jinx!"
Jiang also followed suit and blamed her, while Chu Yian stood there woodenly, his expression blank, without saying a word to defend her.
Zhao Shuning felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
Today was supposed to be her wedding day, but she became the biggest joke.
But what had she done wrong? This was all clearly Lu Zhiran's fault, so why did everyone blame her in the end?
The wedding ended in a tragic way.
Jiang was heartbroken that she spent so much money on the banquet, but it was wasted because the guests left early.
Today the Marquis' Mansion has lost all its dignity and face!
Xiao Yanci and Xiao Baozhu, brother and sister, did not go towards the palace, but found a restaurant and ordered a table full of delicious dishes.
Today at the Marquis Xuanping's Mansion, they were so busy watching the show that they didn't even have a bite to eat.
Ah Sheng, who had been following Xiao Baozhu, also sat down very naturally. His face was still the same ordinary face, but his posture and eyes had changed, and his whole demeanor was different.
Xiao Yanci glanced at her and said, "You are dressed like this, aren't you afraid of being recognized by Old Doctor Jiang?"
Xiao Baozhu immediately said, "If Doctor Jiang asks, I will say that I love Jiang Nansheng and since I can't see him on weekdays, I found a maid with a similar appearance and the same name to keep by my side."
Jiang Nansheng, a famous child prodigy in Shangjing, is also the most gifted young doctor in the Jiang family.
No one could have imagined that she was actually a girl. Even the old doctor Jiang did not know this secret.
Xiao Yanci frowned, "You keep talking about Jiang Nansheng all the time. Do you really think you can marry her in the future?"
"Who says I can't? I'm willing, and Ah Sheng is willing too, isn't that enough?"
Jiang Nansheng had a helpless look on his face, but he didn't say anything in rebuttal.
Xiao Yanci reminded coldly, "But she is a woman. No matter how much she pretends to be a woman, she is still a woman."
Xiao Baozhu immediately covered his mouth, "Seventh Brother, why are you talking nonsense outside? Be careful, there are ears on the other side of the wall."
Xiao Yanci opened her hand and looked at the person beside him whose expression suddenly dimmed.
"Nan Sheng, the truth will sooner or later become known. Your daughter's identity will soon be exposed. Your Jiang family is full of wolves. If you don't make a plan soon, all your years of forbearance and disguise will be in vain. Let me be frank. Even if you want to use deception, don't use Baozhu as a shield. She's going to get married."
A hint of broken light immediately appeared in Jiang Nansheng's eyes.
Seeing her dejected look, Xiao Baozhu immediately began to protect her son.
"Brother, what are you talking about? I won't marry anyone. What's so good about you stinky men? I want to be with Ah Sheng for the rest of my life."
Xiao Yanci said angrily, "Then I'll be the first to expose her secrets."
Xiao Baozhu was furious. "Why are you so cruel? We grew up together, and Ah Sheng was your study partner!"
Xiao Yanci snorted coldly, "If it weren't for this kindness, I wouldn't have the patience to sit here and talk nonsense."
Jiang Nansheng said seriously, "Aci is right to remind me. I will make arrangements for this matter early."
Seeing her serious attitude, Xiao Yanci said nothing more.
Xiao Baozhu then turned to ask another question, "Royal brother, how did you know that Ah Sheng was practicing medicine in Walnut Alley? Even I didn't know about this! Are you guys secretly carrying out a secret from me?"
