When Nan Xi and the others arrived at the river, they saw Yan Shen taking off his coat and putting it on Ji Nanning, while Ji Nanning was nestled in Yan Shen's arms, crying.

Everyone's eyes almost popped out. How dare Ji Nanning do this? He actually hugged his future brother-in-law in broad daylight.

Zheng Jiaojiao was very angry. She yelled, "Ji Nanning, what are you doing?"

A clever little maid has already gone to inform the wife of Marquis Anyang.

Nan Xi looked shocked and ran away crying. Zheng Jiaojiao also left to comfort her, but the remaining ladies did not leave and pointed at the two of them.

Soon, the wife of Marquis Anyang came with her servants. She ordered the maids to take the guests away, and also sent Ji Nanning to the side room and asked her to change clothes.

And I asked my son about the whole thing.

"You mean this was an accident?"

The wife of Marquis Anyang frowned. She was well-informed and did not think this was an accident.

After all, what kind of young lady would do such a thing as helping her elder sister to pass a message? Even if she was a concubine, it would be impossible.

Besides, given his son’s conditions, it was inevitable that Ji Nanning would have some ulterior motives.

"There's something fishy about this matter. Son, go back to the front yard first. Mother will take care of it."

Yan Shen frowned, he didn't know how it happened so coincidentally that Ji Nanxi just happened to see it.

Could it be that Ji Nanning really did it on purpose?

Yan Shen's face darkened when he thought of this. He would never give up Ji Nanxi for Ji Nanning.

Nan Xi has found Yang Shuangyu and told her what happened.

At this time, Ji Nanning had also changed her clothes and came over. Her eyes were red and she was indeed quite frightened just now.

Yang Shuangyu immediately took her two daughters home. She wanted to go back and discuss with the general what to do about this matter.

Along the way, Nan Xi whispered a lot to Yang Shuangyu, regardless of her shocked expression or whether she could accept it or not.

"Dad, I want to cancel the engagement."

Ji Yun frowned. It was just an accident. Was the engagement going to be cancelled?

Ji Yun strongly disagreed. The Ji family had fallen into decline, and the Anyang Marquis's Mansion was already an excellent family.

"Xi'er, it's not that bad..."

Nan Xi glared at Ji Nanning, "I didn't ask you to go find Yan Shen, nor did I ask you to send him a handkerchief, why did you go to see him privately?"

This time, Nan Xi is going to make Ji Nanning's mask fall off in front of the whole family. She will be on guard against her in the future so as not to give her an opportunity to take advantage of her.

Ji Nanning just kept crying. Everything she said now would be wrong. She could only get through the difficult times by relying on the position her aunt had in Ji Yun's heart.

Speaking of which, Ji Nanning's aunt is indeed a special existence. She is the personal maid given to Ji Yun by the old lady.

After Yang Shuangyu married into the family, she was promoted to concubine and gave birth to Ji Nanning.

Later, the old lady fell ill and she took care of her day and night. When the old lady passed away, she also fell ill and died soon after.

Therefore, the Ji family members are very indulgent towards Ji Nanning. Although he is not as favored as Ji Nanxi and Ji Lanchen, he is also unique.

Ji Yun frowned, indeed he couldn't bear to blame her, but what should he do if Nan Xi wanted to cancel the engagement now?

"Anyway, I've decided to withdraw from this marriage. Whoever is willing to marry me can marry me."

Ji Yun's eyes lit up. This was a good idea.

He looked at Ji Nanning. Ji Nanning was only one year younger than Nanxi, and she was well-developed and also a beauty.

They are all daughters of the general. Can't we just register Ji Nanning under Yang Shuangyu's name?

Ji Yun sent his two daughters back to their rooms with a smile, and then he discussed the matter with Yang Shuangyu.

Although Yang Shuangyu was very reluctant, she nodded in agreement when she thought of what her daughter had said to her.

It would be better for her daughter not to marry into that kind of family. Since Ji Nanning was so eager to marry him, she thought it would be a good idea to marry Ji Nanning into the family.

Ji Nanning soon learned of Ji Yun's plan. Thinking that she was about to get married, she ran to Ji Yun and put forward her request.

"Dad, I want to ask you to make my aunt your co-wife."

"How dare you! Your parents have their own decision on your marriage. You don't have to interfere in this matter."

Ji Yun frowned secretly. This daughter was too presumptuous. Recording her as the legitimate daughter was already a great blessing. She actually dared to go even further and wanted to gain status for her aunt. She was really greedy.

Ji Nanning didn't dare to say anything and had to go back to the yard crying.

But the thought in her mind never faded away. The concept she accepted in modern times was that everyone is equal. She felt sorry for her aunt and was heartbroken by the indifference and ruthlessness of the Ji family.

"Since you are ruthless, don't blame me for being ungrateful."

Ji Nanning's eyes flashed with determination. When she got married...

I don't know how Ji Yun made the peace, maybe it was also due to Ji Nanning's efforts, the Yan family actually agreed to change the marriage partner.

The two families quickly exchanged the engagement letters, set a date, and got married three months later.

During this period, Ji Nanning was particularly well-behaved. She did not go out and focused on embroidering her wedding dress and counting her dowry.

It is not easy for a woman to make money in this era, so she must keep an eye on her dowry.

Fortunately, Yang Shuangyu was not a stingy person. She took possession of all her belongings and moved them all to her yard.

Of course, there won’t be a penny more than what should be.

Ever since the last problem with the space, she didn't dare put the dowry into the space. She could only put it in the side room and count it herself every day.
