C32 (1/2)

Because the Qin family had no children, they usually hated it when others played the role of a son in front of them.

When she thought about how she still wanted to marry Jiang Shu into their family, she could not help but suppress the unhappiness in her heart. She smiled awkwardly and said, ”No matter how good a daughter is, she has to marry, it's fine if she's from an ordinary family. But if she's like my eldest daughter, it's usually harder than ascending to the heavens …”

Hearing her words, some people started to ask about the eldest daughter of the Qin family in private. When they found out that she was the mother of Jiang Liangdi from the Crown Prince's Palace, everyone looked at her differently.

However, Madam Qiao smiled and said, ”Younger Sister-in-law knows how to teach girls. The two daughters are very obedient and kind, unlike our family where they run around madly behind our brother's back, looking like a wild brat throwing himself onto a girl …”

In the circle, the old couple from the Pavilion of Jiang's circle were famous for their love and affection. Their eldest son, Jiang Chengmu, had already become a High Scholar at the age of one, and their second daughter, Jiang Yan, was very well-educated.

”Mother!” As soon as I'm not around, you start setting me up! ” Before Madam Qiao's voice could fade away, a young girl dressed in a light green dress rushed in.

”You're still saying that I will scheme you? As soon as I entered, I didn't know that I should pay my respects to the ladies first. This is getting more and more out of hand. ” Madam Qiao pretended to be angry as she looked at the young girl who rushed in.

The young girl pursed her lips slightly, bowing to the madams politely, and said crisply, ”Jiang Yan pays her respects to the madams.”

So she was Jiang Yan? On the side, Jiang Wan silently sized her up.

He looked to be around fourteen or fifteen years old, had a tall and thin figure, a delicate and pretty appearance, and a pair of black and white eyes that flickered.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Shu, who was standing next to Jiang Wan, let out a cold, disdainful snort. She turned her eyes away.

When Jiang Yan saw Jiang Shu, her expression also changed.

Eh? The two of them actually disliked each other?

Jiang Wan thought in her heart.

”You're Third Uncle's family's Jiang Wan?” Who would have thought that Jiang Yan would take the initiative to jump to Jiang Wan's side, affectionately holding her hand and asking, ”Last time Third Aunt came to pay her New Year respects, you accidentally felt the cold and couldn't go out. How are you doing now?”

Jiang Wan wasn't used to Jiang Yan's natural familiarity at the moment, so she could only smile awkwardly and say, ”After taking the medicine, it will naturally be better.”

”That's good!” Jiang Yan looked at Jiang Wan with a beaming smile, holding her hand intimately, ”Come with me to the Warm Pavilion. There are still Sister Fang and Sister Xiao over there, I'll introduce them to you!”

After saying that, without waiting for Jiang Wan to react, he pulled her along and ran out of the parlour, completely disregarding the awkward Jiang Shu who was standing beside the two of them.

”This daughter of mine is crazy.” How could Madam Qiao not see that her daughter's actions were inappropriate? She smiled as she explained to the other wives, ”Once you've decided to play around, you won't care about anything else.”

”This is my little girl's true nature ~!” Which one of us wasn't like this when we were young? ” It was unknown if it was the madame from that family who smiled in response to Madam Qiao's words, but everyone smiled and left as well.

Only Jiang Shu stood there filled with resentment, her teeth chattering.

When Jiang Yan brought Jiang Wan back to the pavilion, there were still two girls sitting there. Both of them were around Jiang Yan's age, and the two of them were reading a book with great concentration, so much so that even Jiang Yan and the rest didn't notice when they came in.

Jiang Yan made a booing gesture towards Jiang Wan, then quietly walked towards the two of them, and snatched the book from their hands with lightning speed.

”Alright, what are you two looking at when I'm not around?” Jiang Yan held the book high up in her hands. She was tall to begin with, and the other two people couldn't even reach the book in her hands. She shouted anxiously, ”Jiang Yan! Give me back the book! ”

Jiang Yan turned over the book with an evil smile on her face, only to see that on the indigo cover of the book was written with the three words' Western Chamber '.
