The daughter of the mansion is slapped in the face every day
Chapter 26 Peeping
Jiang Wanwan looked at her delicate and charming face through the water and felt that this was her greatest reliance.
She was very confident that Zhao Zheyong would be obsessed with her beauty.
She believed that she would definitely secure her position as the Third Prince's Consort.
Jiang Yunxi saw Zhao Zheyong hiding in the dark and observing them from the corner of her eye. She curled her lips slightly and thought, "Finally you're here. I was waiting for you."
Jiang Yunxi looked at the foolish and ignorant Jiang Wanwan and sneered coldly, his tone full of disdain, "Where do you get the confidence to say such things? You said that the Third Prince likes you? How do you know? How many times have you met in private? How many times have you talked?"
After hearing Jiang Yunxi's words, Jiang Wanwan was also a little dazed.
She thought, although she had not spoken to Zhao Zheyong many times, she could always find that Zhao Zheyong was secretly looking at her.
Jiang Wanwan didn't know that Zhao Zheyong's gaze was just a response. He was also searching for prey in the crowd.
Therefore, she believed that Zhao Zheyong must be in love with her.
Jiang Wanwan instantly regained her confidence.
"The Third Prince and I are in perfect sync with each other. There's no need to say much. Our feelings are self-evident." Jiang Wanwan put her hands on her hips, looking overbearing and rude.
Jiang Yunxi sneered again and didn't even bother to refute a word.
"Wan Wan, since you are so confident, why are you begging me for anything? You might as well ask your third prince, who shares your feelings, to ask His Majesty to grant you a marriage. Why do you have to beg me so reluctantly?"
Jiang Wanwan didn't expect Jiang Yunxi to reject her so directly. The smile on her face froze. She thought Jiang Yunxi was the little girl who let her do whatever she wanted and listened to her.
I completely forgot that Jiang Yunxi's personality has changed a lot since he came back from studying medicine!
Seeing Jiang Yunxi's refusal, Jiang Wanwan frowned slightly.
"Does my sister want to marry the third prince?" Jiang Wanwan could only think of this possibility.
Thinking of this possibility, Jiang Wanwan was shocked. She knew that Jiang Yunxi had the support of the Queen Mother. If Jiang Yunxi asked the Queen Mother for this marriage.
The Queen Mother will certainly agree to everything.
Jiang Wanwan couldn't help but clench her handkerchief tightly.
Jiang Yunxi sneered, "Since ancient times, marriages have been decided by parents and matchmakers. My marriage is decided by the Queen Mother. I am not as opinionated as you, Wanwan. Your father is still alive, but you are looking for a man on your own."
These words really touched Jiang Wanwan's sore spot.
If Jiang Rang had not shown her men who were not up to par, Jiang Wanwan would never have been angry and gone out to find a man on her own.
Jiang Wanwan felt that Jiang Yunxi was humiliating her in both overt and covert ways with her words, and she knew that Jiang Yunxi would not give in and agree to help her today no matter what.
Jiang Wanwan no longer endured it and began to mock Jiang Yunxi.
"Sister, you are just relying on the fact that you have lived a few more years beside the Queen Mother. Whoever looks up to you is doing it for your own sake? Isn't it all for the Queen Mother's sake?"
"Sister, you are so old, and I have never heard of a family going to the Queen Mother to propose marriage. It seems that, on the surface, others are polite and respectful to you, but in fact, they don't take you seriously."
"I think the Queen Mother must be very distressed. She is worried that you will marry into a family of low status, and also worried that those of higher status will look down on you."
Jiang Wanwan said this because she was confident that her younger brother Jiang Siqi could pass the imperial examination and win the first place in one fell swoop. Even if he didn't have the title of Duke Zhenguo's Mansion, she could still rely on her younger brother and live a comfortable life.
Jiang Wanwan threw away her handkerchief, puffed out her chest, and spoke with much more confidence.
Jiang Yunxi had been weak in the past, and a Taoist priest predicted that she would not live past the age of sixteen. Therefore, none of the aristocratic families in the capital would consider marrying Jiang Yunxi.
That's why Jiang Yunxi didn't get married too early.
But when Jiang Wanwan said this, it took on a different meaning.
Jiang Yunxi's face was calm, as if she was not hurt at all by Jiang Wanwan's words. "I never rely on men to prove my worth, and I never think that having many people seeking to marry me is something worth showing off."
"Wanwan, you had many men seeking marriage in the past, but is it still the same now?"
"I heard that Second Uncle has been rejected a lot. The families that wanted to marry into your family in the past are now avoiding you!" Jiang Yunxi chuckled.
"Second uncle is even considering making you his concubine. Wanwan, this is indeed a good idea. This way, you can marry into a wealthy family and get what you wish for." Jiang Yunxi's tone contained a hint of sarcasm.
When Jiang Wanwan heard this, she knew that a concubine was nothing more than a man's plaything, and she immediately rebelled and made up her mind not to be a concubine.
"Since Wanwan is so capable and looks down on me, there is no need to beg me. I don't care what you want to do. Just wish you the best."
Jiang Yunxi just walked away.
She deliberately bumped into Jiang Wanwan's arm, and unnoticeably spread some of her beauty on Jiang Wanwan's sleeve.
When Jiang Wanwan saw Jiang Yunxi disappear from her sight, she felt a little regretful for a moment, secretly annoyed at herself for being so impatient and saying hurtful words.
Jiang Yunxi would definitely not help her plead with the Queen Mother!
Jiang Rang would definitely be in a hurry to marry her off!
Jiang Wanwan stamped her feet anxiously.
Jiang Wanwan thought again and felt that Jiang Yunxi had no intention of helping her.
She scolded Jiang Yunxi, just to vent her anger!
Lan Er quietly reminded Jiang Wan Wan, "Miss, the Third Prince is peeking at you again! Don't lose your composure."
Jiang Wanwan then pretended to adjust her temples and hair bun, slightly raised the corners of her mouth, and walked with a twist, deliberately showing her charming figure to Zhao Zheyong.
She just didn't believe that Zhao Zheyong, a man, could not be moved by her? Could he not ask His Majesty to grant them a marriage?
