Nian Huajiao: The cold-faced treacherous minister spoiled her unconditionally after breaking his vow

Old Madam Qi looked at Liu and thought to herself: This is really something that pleases the ear.

She glanced at Qin and said, "The second son's wife is still good at talking. Yes, after all, this Duke's Mansion is my home, and it's understandable that I want to come back. Right, sister-in-law?"

Old Madam Jiang learned her lesson this time and just nodded without saying anything else, in order to avoid being misunderstood by that bitch Jiang Baozhi and causing other trouble.

Jiang Zhou and Jiang Miao finally breathed a sigh of relief and sat more firmly on the stools.

The two of them were used to whitewashing the situation. No matter what it was, it would not be too late to talk about it after sending these people away.

Everyone present nodded in agreement, enjoying the atmosphere in harmony.

Jiang An and Jiang Huai arrived at the ancestral hall early. At this moment, they were cleaning and taking care of the ancestral tablets themselves.

Of course, Jiang An was the only one who was serious.

Jiang Huai sat slumped on a futon nearby, letting Ji Fu massage his legs and shoulders while looking at Jiang An with contempt: "Hey, let me tell you, don't think that just because you are the legitimate son of the second house, you can really be on an equal footing with me. Humph, everything in this Duke's Mansion is mine, don't let your imagination run wild."

Jiang An pursed his lips tightly and did not answer, just doing his work. Seeing that he did not speak, Jixiang was relieved.

Today is a big wedding day for his young master, and it would be unlucky if there was any conflict with the sixth young master.

Seeing that he dared to neglect him like this, Jiang Huai suddenly became angry: "Jiang An, listen to me, I am the future Duke. You will have to make a living under my command in the future, you'd better be obedient..."

"Can you please shut up?" Jiang An stopped what he was doing and interrupted him impatiently.

Hearing this, Jiang Huai jumped up from the futon with a bang. He pointed at Jiang An and said, "Look, you haven't even reached the second room yet. Do you really think you are a young master? How dare you talk to me like this? I have been too good to you recently. I have made you forget who you are."

He became angrier and angrier as he spoke, and he even walked towards Jiang An with his fist raised. Jiang An had long been accustomed to his actions, so it was not difficult for him to resist.

When the fist was about to hit him, Jiang An dropped the rag in his hand, turned around, grabbed Jiang Huai's arm, and used all his strength to push Jiang Huai back a few steps.

If it weren’t for Ji Fu who was behind him and helped him up in time, Jiang Huai almost fell to the ground.

"You, you, you...you Jiang An, how dare you fight back?" Jiang Huai's eyes were as big as copper bells, and he tilted his head to look at Jiang An in disbelief.

Jiang An calmly looked down at Jiang Huai who was half leaning on Ji Fu, and said like a superior: "Sixth brother, what are you doing? Today is my big day, and it is also a big happy event for the second house. Don't blame me for not reminding you, the clan members are all listening outside. If you want to embarrass yourself, don't take me with you."

His counterattack was too fast, and Jixiang didn't react until Jiang Huai was about to fall. At this time, he was guarding Jiang An tightly, watching the movements of the two people in front of him closely, just in case.

Jiang Huai became even more annoyed when he saw that he not only dared to talk back but also dared to fight back.

Ever since he was old enough to understand, he knew that he could beat, scold and bully his half-brother at will.

He could make Jiang An lie down and ride on him, or he could make Jiang An his servant. When he went to the academy, he would not order Ji Fu around, but he would order Jiang An to do this and that, which affected his studies.

When he was punished by the teacher to copy books, he would throw them to Jiang An after class. The next day, Jiang An would obediently hand over the copied books to him.

Now, the people who were driven by him were going to rise up and resist. He didn't believe it at all, nor could he adapt to it.

Jiang Huai didn't believe that he actually dared to hit him, and gestured to go forward and hit Jiang An, but Ji Fu reminded him in a low voice: "Young Master, the Fifth Young Master is right. The Duke and the elders of the clan are all outside. If they hear it..." He didn't continue with the next words, and Jiang Huai understood.

With a "pa~" sound, he slapped Ji Fu on the face, then stroked away Ji Fu's hand that was dragging him, looked at Jiang An viciously: "Hmph, just wait for me!" Then he turned and walked out.

He used all his strength to slap Ji Fu, and he was in trouble. He covered his face with his hands, and the finger marks on his face were burning and painful.

Jixiang raised his chin high, looking at him with a gloating look, and he felt the wound on his face hurt even more. But he still glared at Jixiang, then covered his face and chased after him.

After the two men left, Jixiang looked at his young master happily and said excitedly: "Young master, you were amazing just now. Look at the Sixth Young Master's face, it has turned the color of liver, haha..."

Jiang An glanced at him calmly and said, "Don't be arrogant or impatient. I have offended him today, and I am afraid that I will not have a good life in the future."

Jixiang immediately drooped his face and muttered, "Young Master, you are right. But Young Master, you have never seen him give you a good life before..."

Jiang An was stunned.

Yes, he used to be so cautious and servile, but no one ever treated him well, and he never lived a good life.

He had been reading the books of sages for so long, but even a little book boy who knew nothing could understand him.

The Master was right: When three people walk together, one of them can be my teacher. The little book boy's words revealed his way out.

He shook his head and said, "You are right. In the future, I will be the fifth young master of the mansion. It doesn't matter if I offend him."

When Jixiang heard this, he became happy again.

His young master was the legitimate son of the second branch of the Duke's Mansion, and he would no longer have to live the same life as before. And he no longer had to worry about Ji Fu, the bully who took advantage of his power.

The two of them continued cleaning.

In the main hall, everyone was still chatting.

Qin quietly asked Danyu beside her, "Is Yin'er here?"

Those who came today are all people with some reputation in the clan, and their words carry more weight than those of others.

If Jiang Yin behaves well today, her reputation as dignified and polite will be further consolidated.

Danyu replied hesitantly: "Madam, I was just about to report to you that the Third Miss...she..."

"What's wrong with her? Tell me quickly." Qin gritted her teeth, and a suppressed voice came out from between her teeth.

"The third young lady has arrived a long time ago. But... in the blink of an eye, I don't know where she ran off to. I have already sent people to look for her..." Danyu said with a trembling voice, her lips pursed into a straight line.

This Third Miss is really going to kill her!

With so many people here, Qin couldn't get angry. She just ordered, "Go find her quickly, and tell her to be quiet. There are so many people here today, and they all care about their reputation..."

"Jiang Luo greets grandmother, father, mother, uncle, aunt, and all the elders." Jiang Luo suddenly appeared and interrupted Qin's words. She frowned slightly and looked towards the door with sharp eyes.

It was already summer, and after running this distance, Jiang Luo's face was already rosy and he was sweating profusely.

Fortunately, her skin was fair to begin with, and in everyone's eyes, it was pleasing to the eye, and no one thought there was anything inappropriate.

She was wearing a purple dress today, and she didn't wear many hairpins and rings like usual. So even though she ran all the way here to avoid Jiang Yin, she didn't look messy or out of place.
