Jiang returned to their courtyard in the mansion, she sat down, and Qingqiu, who had just become her aunt, brought her a cup of hot tea. The marriage contract of her whole family was in Jiang's hands, so naturally she had to be careful to please her. Speaking of the third young mistress,
She was extremely gentle and kind when she first came in. After giving birth to the lady, her temperament has changed a bit and she is no longer as easy to get along with as before.
Jiang frowned, "Are you trying to burn me to death with such hot tea?"
She raised her hand and the remaining hot tea spilled out, splashing on Qingqiu. Fortunately, it was winter and Qingqiu was wearing thick clothes and was protected by clothes, but a few drops were also splashed on the back of her hand, which made her gasp.
, her little face turned pale. Qingqiu didn't dare to look at the burned area, she just knelt down and said, "I didn't take good care of you."
Jiang looked at her exposed neck like a swan. From her angle, she could still see the red dots under her collar. She felt that the fire in her heart was burning even more intensely - because of the wine yesterday,
My husband rested at Qingqiu’s place last night.
Although she knew before she got married that her husband could not belong to her alone, but after enjoying the exclusive favor for several years and being suddenly separated by another woman, Jiang still felt uncontrollably. What she originally wanted to say
She also took back her soft words, with a smile on her face, but the words she said made Qingqiu tremble, "You deliberately acted like this, do you want everyone to think that I bully you?"
"I don't dare." Qingqiu didn't know where the young mistress came from and insisted on venting her anger on her, but she didn't dare to argue with the mistress in front of her. She kowtowed quickly, and after a while, her forehead turned red.
"What's going on here?"
Di Wanyuan walked in from outside the door.
When Jiang heard this voice, she felt as if she had been splashed with cold water, and her feverish mind came to her senses. She said calmly: "It's nothing, it's just that Qingqiu accidentally burned me, and she insisted on kowtowing to apologize. People who didn't know better thought I was a bitch."
How domineering.”
Qingqiu said pitifully: "It's not good to be a concubine."
Jiang's eyebrows widened, "That's true, and the second brother has no intention of taking the imperial examination. He will need to spend more money in the future, and it is appropriate for the mother to provide some supplements." And her husband is talented and will definitely be able to go to high school in time, unlike the second brother, who is single-minded.
What's the point of just thinking about doing business?
After he returned to the study, he quickly sent a servant to inquire about the situation in Di Wanhang's yard today. What he inquired about was not something that could not be discussed, and the servant quickly explained everything to him after he came back.
.
Di Wanyuan's face darkened, but he said: "I believe my mother has the same feelings towards us. It's just that my second brother has been weak since he was a child. He has managed to take care of him over the years. He is finally able to start a family and start a business. Mother is very happy."
, so it cost a little more.”
Di Wanyuan looked at Jiang, "That's fine if it's in our house. If you insult her in Di Mansion, it won't be good for your reputation if it spreads."
When her husband did facial makeup for her, Jiang naturally accepted it as soon as she saw fit, and she soon found a reason.
"If you don't like her, you can find an excuse to get rid of her when you go back." Of course Di Wanyuan didn't mean what he said. He has been interested in Qingqiu for a long time, otherwise he wouldn't use the name of his aunt to coax her.
Jiang took the initiative to raise Qingqiu as his aunt. What he said was just that he had calculated Jiang's temperament and deliberately retreated in order to advance. Besides, he and Jiang had been married for a few years, and they only had one daughter. Jiang
She should have been virtuous and given him some beautiful concubines. Facing her indifferent face every day, he didn't want to go back to the backyard.
It was only after the family was separated that Di Wanyuan realized the benefits of having money. Before the family was separated, all the expenses in their yard could be transferred to the public, and the pens, inks, papers and inkstones that they liked outside could be brought back at will to record them in Di Wanyuan.
However, after the family is divided, they will have to bear all the expenses themselves. Although Jiang is brilliant in literature, she has no talent in making money. She can manage several shops and continue to add money. They divide
The money we had received was limited, and we couldn't just sit back and live in vain. Compared to before the separation, our days suddenly seemed tighter.
Qingqiu stood up from the ground and retreated softly.
Yuan Baoyi specially prepared a box of books this time, wasn't it just to overwhelm his wife Jiang?
Regret came to mind again. Just looking at the astoundingly generous dowry, one knew how much the Yuan family valued Yuan Baoyi. I was afraid that Yuan Suijun and Su Yueling had cut off from the second fang just to test him. But he foolishly
He believed it and thus lost Yuan Baoyi. Whatever Jiang could give him, Yuan Baoyi could also give him - if his second brother had not been guided by Yuan Suijun, how could he have become a scholar. Yuan Baoyi even had such a rich
The wealth and ability to make money are great.
Di Wanyuan said: "Get up and be careful next time, otherwise even if your wife is willing to let you go, I won't be able to let you go. Now go down and bring me some snacks." He found a reason to let her leave.
"I just feel aggrieved for my husband. He is filial to his aunt and father. Whenever he thinks of anything good, he thinks of his mother immediately. But in my mother's heart, you are still far behind my second brother."
Just looking at today, we can see that the second brother's wedding cost a lot more money than when they got married. For example, the bride price given to Yuan Baoyi was 30% higher than what she originally paid. Jiang was just making excuses at first, but in the end, it turned out that
My chest felt clogged.
Comparing this with his second brother, who would definitely have no shortage of money in the future, Di Wanyuan couldn't help but feel jealous and resentful.
Jiang quickly said: "It's not Qingqiu's fault today. It was because I was thinking about the affairs of our hospital, and I couldn't help but happened to bump into Qingqiu, so I became furious."
It was obviously him who met Yuan Baoyi first, and the second brother was just a pick-up.
They must find a way to separate the couple, otherwise they might work together to trample him under their feet.
Di Wanyuan's eyes fell on the mark on her forehead, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He was afraid that he favored Qingqiu last night and asked for water several times, which made Jiang feel bad, so he found a reason to vent his anger.
She was so gentle and lovely when she first entered the family, but now she has a bit more anger. It can be seen that the older the woman gets, the more hateful she becomes. Thinking like this, Di Wanyuan never thought that it was him who was in his wife's ears all day long.
Talking about those things that are available and not available makes Jiang more and more suspicious.
Di Wanyuan chatted with Jiang for a while, making Jiang happy again before leaving.
He thought carefully about the solution and called his nanny over, "Do you still have those old purses, handkerchiefs and other items from before I got married?"
The grandma said respectfully: "Keep them all for the young master."
A faint smile appeared on Di Wanyuan's face, "When I dug out those, I remembered that there was something dear to me inside."
Yuan Baoyi basically asked for everything she gave him back then, but he remembered that there was a handkerchief that she had probably forgotten. This handkerchief could come in handy.
