On the day of my tragic death, I was reborn and married to the Regent
Chapter 25 A big gift
Jiang Nian handed the dowry list to Aunt Liu.
"Auntie, please take a look first. These should be in the warehouse. If there are any discrepancies with the list, go find Feng."
Aunt Liu took the list and took a look at it. She was shocked. There was so much money in the mansion?
But on second thought, with the Jiang family's current status, they shouldn't have these, so they can only be Lin's dowry.
"My dear, you have worked so hard to seize the power of the family, why do you want to give it to me?"
"Auntie is also a member of the family. Don't you want to be in charge of the family?"
Madam Liu pondered for a moment and then said slowly, "Although I also want to pull Feng down, I also know my own limitations. Why doesn't the eldest lady take control of the household herself?"
Jiang Nian smiled and said, "Auntie, can't you figure it out?"
How wary is the Jiang family of the Lin family?
Even if the power to manage the family is not in Feng's hands, it will not be handed over to her.
Without Feng, there is still Concubine Liu. Everyone can see clearly how Concubine Liu has been in the mansion for so many years, and everyone thinks that she is easy to control.
"But...it's been so long now. I see that the old lady doesn't have the slightest intention of taking back the reins of the household."
"Auntie has not often appeared in the mansion in recent years. In the next few days, remember to visit the old lady and father more often. As for the rest, Auntie, don't worry about it."
Aunt Liu looked at the girl in front of her who was just about fifteen years old, and she was still unwilling to believe it. She was obviously at such an innocent and kind age, but she had such a plan. Her eyes were full of calculations.
The next day, Jiang Nian came as soon as breakfast was over.
Jiang Nian didn't let her into the house. He stood on the steps and just looked at Jiang Nian.
"Sister, I have something to say to you."
"If you have anything to say, just stand there and say it. Don't fall down again and let Big Brother scold me, saying that I bullied you."
Jiang Nian twisted her handkerchief and bit her lips in silence. Qiuyu beside her couldn't bear to see this, but didn't dare to really step forward. She just stared at Jiang Nian with vicious eyes.
Jiang Nian just pretended not to see it and hated it. The more he hated it, the better.
"Sister, I really didn't mean it last time. I explained it to you, but you didn't listen..."
"Sister, this is all my fault. I apologize to you here. I hope you can let my mother go."
"Sister, what are you talking about? How long have I been home? Auntie is the head of the family, respected by everyone in the mansion. I'm afraid that in the whole capital, we are the only family that calls Auntie mother, right?"
Feng got into trouble herself, and everyone came to find her. Do they really think she is easy to bully?
She only agreed to help at the princess's mansion, but did not say that she would speak for her in the mansion.
Jiang Nian's face turned pale. "Sister, I know it's all my mother's and my fault. Now my mother has been punished by my grandmother and ignored by my father. She can't bear it anymore. Sister, please say something nice to my grandmother."
As he said this, he was about to kneel down to Jiang Nian.
Sure enough, as soon as he knelt down, Jiang Mingyuan came.
Qiuyu quickly said aggrievedly: "Master, you are finally here. If you hadn't come, the girl...the girl..."
Jiang Nian rolled his eyes to the sky. Is he going to use the same trick a second time?
Jiang Mingyuan quickly helped Jiang Nian up from the ground and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with heartache.
"Nian'er, Nian Nian came to you to plead for mercy. If you don't agree, then what's the point?"
"You can see clearly this time. I didn't bully her. She wanted to kneel down."
Jiang Mingyuan had nothing to refute and held Jiang Nian in his arms. After all, he couldn't bear to see Jiang Nian suffer any injustice.
"You are my elder sister after all. Nian Nian is not in good health and is usually sensible and quiet. Even if there is something, you should give in to her."
Listen, is it human language?
If they were not in the wrong today, they would probably turn her Qingfangyuan upside down, right?
"You mean that Feng Shi shouldn't be punished like this?"
"I......"
"Feng was punished because she did something wrong. What's the point of you coming to me? If you really want to know..." Jiang Nian looked towards the door: "Father, why don't you tell them yourself?"
Jiang Mingyuan and Jiang Nian were startled and turned to look.
Jiang Dechang walked in with a sullen face.
"Nonsense, who asked you to come?"
Jiang Nian ran to Jiang Dechang and knelt down: "Father, I..."
"Go back and don't bother your sister again."
Jiang Dechang was angry. Not to mention Jiang Nian, even Jiang Mingyuan was displeased to him.
"Father."
"Go back! Feng Shi offended Princess Huaining, and being able to return alive is already a pardon. How dare you come and cause trouble for Sister Nian! What? Do you still want to find fault with His Highness?"
Jiang Nian bit her lips, her eyes were red, and she wanted to say something but was stopped by Jiang Mingyuan.
"Father, Nian Nian is also worried about Auntie, let's go back now."
Having said that, he pulled the man up and quickly left Qingfangyuan.
As soon as they left, Jiang Dechang immediately changed his expression: "Don't worry, Nian'er. If they come to disturb your peace in the future, just tell daddy and he will take care of it for you."
"Thank you father."
Jiang Dechang was a little impatient: "Didn't you say last time that you wanted to discuss it with your mother? Any news?"
"Don't worry, father. This won't happen overnight. Her Royal Highness is still angry. I've already sent a letter to you, and I believe we'll have news soon."
Jiang Dechang laughed: "Okay, okay, my daughter is still capable. Then Dad will wait for your good news."
Jiang Nian's eyes flickered slightly, and he said softly, "But father, this matter of my aunt... is not a small matter after all. Now my aunt is still in charge of the family. If the princess's mansion holds us accountable..."
"Don't worry, I'm here. If Feng still doesn't behave, I'll have a solution."
After Jiang Dechang was calmed down and finally sent away, Baozhu came back from outside: "Miss, I found the second young master."
"where?"
"In Wangchun Tower. I heard he went in a few days ago and never came out. He spent all his money today and was kicked out. He's heading home now."
A quarter of an hour later, Jiang Nian was about to go out with Baozhu when he ran into a figure stumbling into the house. He reeked of alcohol and his face was flushed. It was obvious that he had been drinking outside all night.
Jiang Nian stepped forward and saluted: "Second brother."
The young man narrowed his eyes and stared at her for a long time, not recognizing her.
Jiang Nian laughed: "Second brother, don't you recognize me? I am Jiang Nian."
When Jiang Mingsheng heard the name for the first time, he was stunned for a moment. Although he was drunk, he was not unconscious.
When she realized what was happening, she looked disgusted and said, "It's my elder sister. Why are you back?"
"It was my father who brought me back. My second brother is even more diligent than my eldest. I heard that he is studying and can't even go home at night. He is really hardworking. If my father knew, he would be very happy."
Although Jiang Dechang values Jiang Mingyuan, he also values Jiang Mingsheng equally. However, Jiang Mingsheng is not a good student. He is not good at studying, and he is even worse at martial arts.
Feng gave him two shops, hoping that he could do some business and at least have a livelihood.
He thought that he was finally appeased, but he didn't know that the two shops were lost on the third day after Jiang Mingsheng took over. Aunt Feng secretly subsidized him with a lot of silver and kept the matter a secret for her son.
Jiang Mingsheng loved to hear these compliments. These words touched his heart and he chuckled twice: "Big sister, you are really good at talking. You are really good to your second brother. Your second brother will bring you something delicious someday."
Looking at Jiang Mingsheng's staggering figure walking away, he sneered and said, "Just wait, a big gift is on the way."
