On the day of my tragic death, I was reborn and married to the Regent
Chapter 10 Suffering
Jiang Nian was sitting at the table reading a book. He looked up when he heard this and asked, "Are you saying that the eldest master took the second young lady out?"
"That's right. I heard from the servants in the palace that there is a flower viewing banquet at the Prince of Jin's palace today, and the eldest son is taking the second daughter with him."
After that, Baozhu complained: "The eldest master is really something. The young lady is obviously his biological sister, how can he bring a concubine's sister with him? Isn't it embarrassing?"
Jiang Nian put down the book and pondered for a moment. He had experienced the same thing in his previous life.
At that time, she heard that Jiang Mingyuan took Jiang Nian to the flower-viewing banquet at Prince Jin's Mansion, but she didn't get any news. When they came back, she made a fuss. She felt that Jiang Mingyuan didn't love her as a younger sister and took Jiang Nian but not her, so she got very angry.
Jiang Mingyuan ignored her at first. Not only did he not say a single nice word to her, he even scolded her for being ignorant and ignored her for a few days.
But a few days later he came to apologize to her again, saying that he wanted to make amends to her, and took her to the poetry meeting at Prince Jin's mansion.
She was so naive at that time that she actually thought Jiang Mingyuan took her there to apologize to her.
Thinking about it now, it was really bad luck.
"It's just a flower viewing party, nothing special. I'm fine reading at home while I wait for my mother to come back."
The princess's mansion sent someone to deliver a letter, saying that the princess was sympathetic and that Lin had been away from home for a few days and it was time for her to go home and visit.
Jiang Nian wore a bright dress today and dressed up nicely, waiting for her mother to come back.
It was not until the end of the Si hour that there was any movement outside.
Jiang Nian went to the door to greet her in person, and the people from the princess's mansion helped Lin down from the sedan chair, very respectfully.
These past few days at the Princess's Mansion, Lin's complexion had obviously improved a lot, and it seemed that there were fewer wrinkles on her face.
The nanny handed Lin to Jiang Nian and said with a smile, "His Highness said that Madam Jiang should rest well for the next few days and will come to pick you up in a few days." As she spoke, a maid came up behind her and said, "This is the maid that His Highness has given to Madam Jiang. If you have any matters in the future, just give them to her."
Lin slowly bowed, "Thank you, Your Highness."
After the people from the Princess' Mansion left, the people from the Jiang Mansion didn't know how to react for a moment and just stood there motionless.
Jiang Nian ignored them. When he heard that people from the princess's mansion had arrived, Madam Jiang pretended to be sick and Feng pretended to be busy. Her mother had not been in charge for many years, so it was normal for these servants to not know how to respond.
Jiang Nian supported Lin and finally revealed a bit of girlish demeanor: "Mother, I will help you to rest."
Lin nodded, and the group went straight back to Qingfangyuan.
Although it is possible to arrange other accommodation for Lin, Jiang Nian is still worried.
She feels at ease only when her mother is under her watchful eye. There is no one in the Jiang family who can be trusted.
Baozhu had already cleaned up the house, fumigated the house, and dried the quilts, and was waiting for someone to come back.
Lin had been in poor health in recent years. As soon as she entered the house, Jiang Nian helped her lie down.
Jiang Nian turned to look at the maid left behind in the princess's mansion and asked, "Sister..."
"Just call me Lanzhi, girl."
"Sister Lanzhi, I'll have to trouble you in the future."
Lanzhi originally served the princess, and now she serves Lin, which is a supreme honor for Lin.
"Miss, you are too polite. Madam Jiang works for His Highness. I came here on His Highness's orders. It is not hard work."
As he spoke, he handed her the prescription in his hand: "Madam Jiang's condition has been examined by the imperial physician. Here is the prescription, please take a look, young lady."
"Your Highness, thank you for your hard work. Baozhu, please take Sister Lanzhi to rest first."
After they left, Jiang Nian looked at Lin on the bed and tucked in the corner of the quilt. "Mother, how are you feeling?"
Although Lin's face looked pale, she was in good spirits. She smiled and said, "Don't worry. The imperial physician said that I can recover."
"Mother, please have a good rest these days. Your daughter will always be with you."
Seeing that there was no one in the room, Lin choked up and said, "Niannian, you have suffered so much over the years."
Jiang Nian smiled and said, "My daughter hasn't suffered. She's doing well at the border. Her grandparents are also very kind."
Speaking of the Lin family, Lin's eyes instantly turned red.
"Don't worry, mother. Grandpa is doing well and in good health. My uncles are doing well too. My cousins are all grown up. Everything is fine."
The worst off are the Lin family. The Lin family lives pretty well at the border. At least no one bullies them. Although it is not as good as living in the general's mansion, it is better than being free and unrestrained.
"Actually... you don't have to worry about Mom. If Mom really gets you and your brother into trouble..."
Jiang Nian pursed his lips tightly, not knowing how to bring up the matter of Jiang Mingyuan.
Her mother was already in poor health, and if she knew about this, she would probably not be able to bear it for a while.
But if I don't say it, I will always be thinking about my son. Seeing that my son is not only not close to me, but is so close to my enemy, I can't help but feel sad.
Lin glanced around the room and asked, "Where's your eldest brother? Is he okay?"
"...Mother, don't worry. Big brother is fine, but... he's not home today..."
Jiang Nian didn't say anything more. After coaxing Lin to sleep, he left the house.
Baozhu was waiting outside. When she saw someone coming out, she stepped forward and whispered, "Miss, someone is coming from Shou'an Hall."
The person who came was Mrs. Zhang, who was by Old Madam Jiang's side. She brought a lot of things with her and also brought a message.
"The old lady said that the young lady is the eldest daughter of the Jiang family and must behave like an older lady. When you go out in the future, you must think about the well-being of your family, and... and the madam... The old lady said that the madam is not in good health and asked her to recuperate in Qingfang Courtyard from now on. Don't go out unless necessary, lest you fall ill and delay the princess's important affairs... After all, the outside world belongs to others, not yourself, so you must be careful with your words and actions.
Madam is not feeling well right now and needs to rest. People in the mansion shouldn't disturb her. Miss, please take care of her."
Jiang Nian heard everything that Mother Zhang said clearly.
Since she is in the Jiang family, she must be well-behaved and consider the family in everything. Even if her mother comes out of the Buddhist temple, she is still a member of the Jiang family. She should know what to say and what not to say outside.
Her mother was in poor health and could not see guests, so no one else in the house came to visit her, leaving her to fend for herself.
"Thank you, Mama Zhang. Please tell Grandma that I've taken note of everything."
Mother Zhang pretended to be respectful: "Just make a note of this, young lady. The old lady has also selected a few maids for you. Do you need any?"
"No need, I have people serving me. Besides, His Highness personally left his servants to my mother, so Qingfangyuan is not short of people for the time being."
Hearing this, Mother Zhang's expression changed slightly and she left with an embarrassed look.
Jiang Nian stayed with Lin until evening. Lin wanted to see her son, but it was ultimately not possible.
After feeding Lin some light meals and helping her drink some medicine, Jiang Nian came out of the house.
As soon as she came out, she saw Baozhu coming back in a hurry and whispering something in her ear.
