On the day of my tragic death, I was reborn and married to the Regent

Hearing this, Baozhu quickly lit the lamp.

The room was lit up, and Jiang Nian saw the wound on Jiang Mingyuan's forehead at a glance, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

Seeing that Jiang Nian didn't say anything and kept staring at him, Jiang Mingyuan laughed: "What? I haven't seen you for many years. Don't you recognize me, big brother?"

Jiang Nian nodded: "I really don't recognize him."

The smile on Jiang Mingyuan's lips froze for a moment, then returned to normal, still looking like a gentleman.

It was the first time that Jiang Mingyuan met Jiang Nian after ten years.

Her rosy cheeks were flushed and her skin was white as snow, like a fairy in a painting. Her eyes were charming and her long eyelashes were trembling slightly, making her look a little fragile. Although she was dressed simply, she was still elegant.

I have to say, it is indeed a good-looking face.

"It's okay. Now that I'm back, there will be many opportunities to meet in the future."

Jiang Nian said coquettishly: "I thought big brother had forgotten me."

Jiang Mingyuan smiled gently, but the smile looked fake no matter how you looked at it.

"How could that be? You are my biological sister. Big brother naturally misses you. It's just that I've been busy recently and just returned home today. I wanted to just come and see you, but I didn't expect to wake you up."

Listen, he describes his despicable behavior of breaking into a girl's boudoir at night in such a high-sounding way.

Jiang Nian was about to vomit.

If you don't know, you might think that he is really worried about his sister. Don't think that she doesn't know the purpose of his visit today.

When her mother came out of the Buddhist temple, the entire Jiang family became anxious. However, Jiang Dechang would probably be appeased by Old Madam Jiang, while Jiang Mingyuan was the most difficult to fool.

He is suspicious, cautious, and two-faced.

In his previous life, he cared about his sister and showed concern for her in every way, just because he thought she was still useful.

She had never understood before that although they were born of the same mother, their situations were completely different.

Why was she the only one sent away when the Lin family got into trouble, while Jiang Mingyuan was not only doing well in the Jiang family, but was also given special attention?

Old Madam Jiang loves him, Jiang Dechang values him, and even Feng praises him everywhere.

She thought that things were different because she was a girl and her elder brother was a boy, and that they would inherit the family business and bring honor to the family in the future.

Only after living a second life did she realize what a bullshit man and woman were. It was because Jiang Mingyuan was not her biological brother at all!

When she was a child, she loved to stick to her eldest brother the most. She didn't care at all about his cold attitude because he was her only eldest brother.

Little did she know that Jiang Mingyuan had long been disgusted with her.

When her mother gave birth, Jiang Dechang secretly replaced the child with his concubine's. The child her mother had kept for so many years was actually a bastard.

Her own child had long since disappeared and her fate was unknown.

Jiang Dechang did this in secret and not many people knew about it.

Jiang Mingyuan has known his life story since he was a child. He is still in contact with his concubine's mother and visits her often.

Jiang Dechang hated the Lin family and her mother, and was afraid that the Lin family's grandson would control the Jiang family in the future.

He was so deliberate and strategizing, calculating everyone, but he didn't know that the son he had raised for so many years was not his biological son at all!

Jiang Mingyuan is the child of the concubine and another man, and has nothing to do with the Jiang family.

Jiang Mingyuan is on good terms with His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin. For so many years, he has done nothing for his father Jiang Dechang, but the entire Jiang family has no suspicion at all.

I wonder if her father will die of anger when he finds out the truth?

Jiang Nian suddenly smiled gently: "So that's how it is. Big brother's business is more important. I'm already very happy that you can come to see me."

"Don't worry, I will come to see you often in the future."

Jiang Nian jumped up in joy: "Brother is so good to me, then let's make a deal, brother must come to see me often."

After hearing this, Jiang Mingyuan breathed a sigh of relief. He was still the same fool as when he was a child.

After pretending to ask some random questions, Jiang Mingyuan finally got to the point: "I heard... Mother came out of the Buddhist temple?"

"Big brother also knows about it? Mother is skilled in embroidery. Princess Huaining found out and summoned her. I don't know how she is doing now." Jiang Nian looked so innocent that even Jiang Mingyuan could not find any flaws.

Jiang Mingyuan frowned calmly: "How do you know Princess Huaining?"

"Brother, don't you know? Didn't grandma tell you?"

Of course he didn't say anything. As soon as Jiang Mingyuan returned home and heard about this, he went to Qingfangyuan. How could he have time to go to Shou'an Hall?

"Grandmother knows about this matter. If you want to know, you can ask Grandmother. This is a good thing."

"Let's not talk about that. I heard that my eldest brother just came back from my grandmother's hometown. It's a wonderful place. Did he bring me any gifts?"

Jiang Mingyuan was stunned. Obviously not.

But if you want to get anything out of Jiang Nian in the future, you have to give him some benefits.

After a while, the newly acquired purple jade bracelet was delivered.

Jiang Nian held the purple jade bracelet and looked at it. It was indeed a good thing. In the previous life, this thing finally fell into Jiang Nian's hands, and it belonged to her in this life.

In Qingfeng Courtyard, a maid ran in hurriedly and said something in Jiang Nian's ear.

Jiang Nian's already bad expression became even worse.

"Are you saying that brother went to see Jiang Nian?"

"Yes, the servants in the mansion saw it. They said that the eldest master hurried to Qingfang Courtyard as soon as he returned home. He stayed there for a long time. After leaving, he sent someone to deliver something there."

Jiang Nian's eyes instantly turned red, and his fingers, which were tightly gripping the corner of the table, turned slightly white.

It’s the ginger year again!

Not only did he make her lose face in the princess's mansion, but now he wants to snatch my eldest brother away!

The maidservant was originally feeling sorry for the young lady, but seeing Jiang Nian so angry, she quickly comforted him, "Don't be angry, young lady. The young master has been the best to you for so many years. I think he left today because of something. Even if the young lady is his biological daughter, she is just a crude person who came back from the border. How can she compare to you?"

These words touched Jiang Nian's heart.

At home, her elder brother was really good to her.

Whenever I get something rare outside, I must bring it back to her.

If he was going out for several days, he would also say hello to her in advance.

Thinking of this, a smile finally appeared on Jiang Nian's lips.

In the evening, Jiang Nian took off her hairpins and rings, and let her long black hair hang obediently behind her. She was embroidering a purse by candlelight.

This was what she had promised to Jiang Mingyuan before.

The maid behind her couldn't stand it any longer and complained, "Miss, you'd better go to bed early. The eldest master won't be coming today."

"Hiss" Jiang Nian pierced his hand and blood quickly seeped out.

The maid hurriedly bandaged it: "Second Miss, why are you doing this?"

"This is what I promised my elder brother before, I have to do my best."

As soon as Jiang Mingyuan walked to the door, he heard such affectionate words and immediately forgot about Jiang Nian.

As soon as I came in, I saw the girl's thin body. Her fingers were wrapped in a bandage and bleeding.

"Why do you have to do this at night? Be careful not to damage your eyes." As he said this, he grabbed his hand and looked at it with heartache.

Jiang Nian smiled but said nothing. It was the maid beside her who explained, "This servant has also tried to persuade her, but this sachet is for the eldest master. No matter how hard she tries, she won't listen. The young lady just wants to finish it as soon as possible and give it to the eldest master."

Jiang Nian is good-looking, usually doesn't talk much when she's out, and looks delicate.

She said shyly: "Brother, don't listen to her nonsense. I'm just killing time. I'm already very happy that you came to see me so late. I thought..."

Seeing Jiang Nian's disappointment, Jiang Mingyuan immediately explained: "After all, she just came back, so I went to take a look."

Jiang Nian smiled, but that smile was filled with a hint of grievance. "It's only natural. After all, she is your biological sister. Did you give her the purple jade bracelet you mentioned earlier?"

Jiang Mingyuan had promised her that thing a long time ago, but today he turned around and gave it to someone else. She was really angry.

Seeing Jiang Nian's aggrieved look, Jiang Mingyuan softened his heart and stroked her hair gently, coaxing her softly: "This is indeed my fault. Don't be angry. There will be a flower viewing banquet at the Prince of Jin's Mansion in a few days. I will take you there to relax."

Jiang Nian pouted and asked sullenly, "Really?"

"Of course it's true. There will be many noble ladies there, so you can go out and make some friends."

Jiang Nian's gloomy mood disappeared in an instant, and he felt very proud.
