Transmigrated into a short-lived widow? Cold-faced uncle fights for my life

The room was silent as Lu Yun read the list from top to bottom.

But as she looked at it, she was suddenly stunned, with a slight hesitation in her expression.

She raised her eyes and glanced at Shuang Ji not far away.

When he met her gaze that looked him up and down, Shuangji felt a chill in his heart.

"Girl, what are your orders?"

She asked proactively, and heard Lu Yun cough lightly and look up to the front. Although her tone was calm, it was obvious how embarrassed she was.

"Can you read?"

"Ah?" Shuang Ji was stunned, thinking he had heard it wrong.

Lu Yun thought she was mocking him, so he immediately looked up and spoke in a violent voice.

"What? I'm asking you if you can read! I was born in a border area where there has been constant war. Do you know how hard it is? It's already difficult for an ordinary child to grow up, let alone learn to read and write?"

"I can read, but I just don't recognize that many. Some of the characters are too complicated for me to recognize. If you can read, read it to me. If you can't, go find someone who can!"

Lu Yun frowned, feeling extremely unhappy.

Ever since she came to the Wei family, her biggest inferiority complex was that she didn't fit in here.

Even if she tried her best to make up for it, she was still an outsider after all, not to mention learning to read and write, which was something that could not be accomplished overnight...

When she thought about how Jiang Mingwei had been well-read since childhood and was even a student of Mr. Wang, she felt envious and jealous!

"I have read a little bit, let me read to Miss Lu."

I tried hard to suppress my laughter, but I didn't expect that Lu Yun couldn't even read.

Shuangji no longer felt as aggrieved and unwilling as he had in the morning. He picked up the book and read it to her carefully.

I read it all from beginning to end.

Lu Yun only had a vague understanding and could barely remember a few heavyweight figures.

Among them are Her Royal Highness the Grand Princess Nanjing and several princes.

The rest were the ministers of the court, and even Jiang Mingwei's brother, Jiang Mingjin.

However, Lu Yun was not interested in them. He looked up at Shuang Ji and asked.

"Do you know which of these guests has the worst temper?"

Shuang Ji couldn't help but tremble when he heard this, realizing that Lu Yun wanted to do something bad!

She didn't want to answer, but she was driven crazy by the look in her eyes.

After hesitating for a long time, he finally answered.

"I... I don't know much about it. After all, they are all high-ranking officials. But I heard that the Grand Princess has only one daughter. That girl can't hear or speak. The Grand Princess treats her like a precious pearl. If anyone dares to let that little princess suffer injustice, the Grand Princess will never let him go easily."

"The eldest princess is the emperor's biological sister and has great authority in the court, so no one dares to disrespect the little princess."

"That's it..."

Lu Yun nodded, a dark light flashed in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.

"Okay, I understand. If there's nothing else, you can leave first!"

Lu Yun waved her hand and threw Shuang Ji aside after using it.

There was a flash of displeasure in Shuangji's eyes, but in the end he didn't dare to say anything more and could only retreat silently.

But after she took two steps, Lu Yun suddenly called her back.

When I turned around, I met her warning eyes.

"Shuangji, you must know now who you belong to! Since you have come to my yard, you should be of the same mind as me!"

"If the fact that I am illiterate is told to others, it will definitely be you who will tell them. Don't blame me for being rude then!"

Her smile was smug and arrogant.

"You can ignore me, but you can't ignore Heng'er, right? If something happens to him in your hands, guess...what will you do?"

Shuangji's face looked grim, but his legs were shaking. He quickly nodded and said yes.

Then he left in a hurry.

Lu Yun grinned happily and looked at the booklet in his hand again. He had a good memory. Although he couldn't remember everything, he could remember about 70% to 80%.

For example, the name written at the very front of this booklet is Princess Nanjing!

"Jiang Mingwei, if you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being willful and arrogant. You don't take me seriously and are unwilling to give up the position of mistress to me and Heng'er. You even mock me in every way!"

"In that case, let me see what earth-shattering things you can do when facing the Grand Princess!"

On the other side, Jiang Mingwei couldn't help sneezing and immediately looked around.

"Who is it? Who is scolding me?!"

Hua Cui just brought a plate of fruits and placed it next to Jiang Mingwei.

I saw her looking around with a wary look on her face, pouting and blinking.

"No one is watching you, young lady. Did you fall asleep and have a nightmare again? Please don't fall asleep now. If you continue to sleep, you will really become the pighead you said you were!"

Jiang Mingwei picked up the silver fork, stabbed a piece of fruit and put it in her mouth, saying with a smile.

"Don't worry, I'm not going to sleep. But if someone sneezes suddenly, it means someone is saying bad things about me behind my back! I was thinking, who is so bored that instead of enjoying life, they gossip about others behind my back?"

Jiang Mingwei was just speaking casually, but after she finished speaking, Hua Cui was stunned.

After a while, he spoke to Jiang Mingwei.

"It can't be such a coincidence, right? Miss, I just heard them say that Lu Yun originally didn't plan to repair or add to our yard!"

"Later, it was the old lady who said that the yard must be kept clean, so she had to agree. Miss, do you think she was secretly cursing you behind your back?"

The corner of Jiang Mingwei's mouth twitched. She didn't expect that she could even use such a childish trick!

It seems that the first of the three things a new official would do upon taking office today didn't start with her, which really made her feel quite resentful!

To the extent of destroying the reputation of the General's Mansion?

"I don't care about her. Let her do whatever she wants."

Jiang Mingwei closed her eyes and lay leisurely on the recliner again.

However, she could imagine that many dignitaries from the capital would come to celebrate the housewarming that day, and she wondered how many of her old acquaintances she would meet among them.

And Jiang Mingjin will probably come as well, right?

Or will he choose not to marry in order to avoid suspicion with his sister?

Jiang Mingwei sighed.

I have to go to the herbal medicine shop first and make the detoxification medicine as soon as possible, otherwise it may be too late when the time comes.

Some things need to be prepared in advance...

The housewarming party was scheduled for five days later, so there was not a single peaceful day during the five days since we moved into the general's mansion.

Countless servants emerged from every yard and every corner?

Jiang Mingwei even suspected that these servants had the ability to clone themselves, otherwise why would there suddenly be so many of them?

Even in her yard, there were seven or eight servants working on repairs and tidying things up.

Finally, the housewarming party officially began in the busyness -
