Quick wear: cannon fodder is a bit strong

"I just found out that a passenger ship bound for Country D weighed anchor at the dock at six o'clock tonight."

The fourth lady said:

"The valuables in the Third Young Master's room, including the silver dollars, checks, and passports... are all gone. And, and..."

"Anything else?" Mr. Jiang asked through gritted teeth.

The fourth lady glanced in the bride's direction with embarrassment, and finally made up her mind:

"I heard, I heard that Miss He Yajun from the He family is also missing. The He family is now searching for her all over the city..."

With a bang, Master Jiang dropped the cup in front of him. When he realized that this was the wedding wine for the newlyweds, he was slightly stunned.

"Asshole, asshole, Shang Bin, this troublesome brat! After all, he is still..."

Mr. Jiang was still a little hesitant to say the following words out of consideration for the bride present. He pointed at the eldest lady and said angrily:

"You've spoiled me so much and made me a good son!"

"Why did the master say this?"

The doctor would not take the blame. She showed no fear and stood straight:

"Back then, I repeatedly locked Shang Bin up in the woodshed, cutting off his contact with that vixen, and even cutting off his financial resources. But it was you, Master, who felt sorry for your son, that secretly let him out and gave him so much money!"

"Now that something has happened, you blame me!"

"You! You ignorant woman..."

Mr. Jiang was in the wrong, and seeing his voice rising and about to curse, he remembered something and suppressed his anger.

"I won't argue with a woman like you."

He pointed at the bride:

"Tell me, what should we do now? Nianru is still here. How are we going to explain this to the Song family?"

The family only then remembered that the other protagonist of today's wedding was still there.

Everyone immediately turned their gaze to Nan Xi, realizing that the bride had been too steady for most of the day.

"Nianru... what do you think?"

Through the red veil, the eldest lady said apologetically:

"In this situation, it is definitely our Jiang family who has let you down. If you..."

The lady was a little embarrassed to say what came next.

The groom ran away from the wedding, and the second wife's illegitimate son inexplicably died in the bridal chamber while wearing wedding clothes. No matter how you look at it, Song Nianru's situation is very embarrassing now.

Now that the veil had been lifted, she could neither be considered the Jiang family's legitimate Third Young Mistress nor the recently deceased Second Young Mistress. But sending her back to the Song family just like that didn't seem right.

After all, Song Nianru is not an ordinary girl.

Not to mention whether the Song family is willing or not.

"Cough, cough!"

Nan Xi cleared her throat and used all her strength to raise her voice: "Let... Jiang Shangwen... come... and remove the veil!"

Unfortunately, the voice that came out was still stiff and rough, and she seemed to be feeling lonely.

Everyone in the room was obviously stunned.

Song Nianru's voice used to be soft and sweet, but it wasn't like this. Also, what did she just say?

Letting Young Master Song to lift the veil, does this mean that she wants to change the person and marry Young Master Song?

This……

It doesn't seem to work?

Just now, with the injection of a trace of the original owner's soul power, some of the original owner's memories have already appeared in Nan Xi's mind.

This small world is currently in a period similar to the Republic of China. The original owner, Song Nianru, is the eldest daughter of the Song family in Yuncheng. She has a younger brother and a younger sister, but she is the undisputed favorite of the family.

Not only do her parents favor her, but her younger brother and sister are also obsessed with her.

Unfortunately, when the original owner grew up, she fell in love with Jiang Shangbin, the third son of the Jiang family. But Jiang Shangbin had someone else he loved, He Yajun, the daughter of the He family, who eloped with him tonight.

The He family and the Jiang family are both in business, but they are in the same industry and have always had conflicts and are competitors.

Besides, He Yajun is just a concubine's daughter of the He family. How can she be compared with the jewel in the crown of Director Song, the third in command of Yuncheng?

Mr. Jiang and his wife naturally looked down on He Yajun and tried their best to separate the two. They prepared generous gifts and went to the Song family in person to propose marriage.

This is how this marriage came about.

But no one expected Jiang Shangbin to suddenly run away from his marriage. As for how the Jiang family's second wife learned of this news, and why she thought of letting the second son Jiang Shangwu take the veil and try to take the blame, Nan Xi didn't know at the moment.

Just as she didn't know how Song Nianru, a good bride, could die quietly.

As for why Nan Xi chose to let the eldest son of the Jiang family lift the veil, one reason was that she had the same concerns as the Jiang family. If she rashly returned to the Song family, it would damage the reputation of the Song family in any case.

After all, Song's father is a politician, and the political world hates these face-saving things being talked about the most.

Since the original owner was the darling of the Jiang family, Nan Xi would not cause any more trouble for her.

Besides, she has to stay in the Jiang family with a legitimate reason so that she can fulfill the original owner's wish and investigate the cause of her death, right?

No matter what, since the original owner died after being married in the Jiang family, the crime scene must be in the Jiang family, and the murderer must be related to the Jiang family.

The last reason is that Nan Xi discovered in the original owner's memory that the eldest young master of the Jiang family was very handsome and had not yet married. It was just that he had suffered from a serious illness in recent years and rarely appeared in public.

Nan Xi felt that Young Master Jiang's appearance was a perfect match for her own half-dead state.

No one should look down on anyone else, let's just get along like this for now.

As for the future, we'll see how the situation develops.

As long as she can completely control this body, can a marriage of transaction still trap her?

After hearing what Nan Xi meant, the eldest lady said hesitantly:

"Nianru, if you're willing to stay in the Jiang family, we're very welcome. But you know Shangwen's health, so I'm afraid it's unfair to you..."

"Sister, you're going a bit too far."

A sickly-looking woman in the crowd said slowly:

"My sister gave birth to two legitimate sons, Shangwen and Shangbin. No matter their appearance or character, they are both outstanding, one in a hundred."

"Miss Song has a keen eye for talent, which is why she chose the eldest young master."

As he spoke, he covered his mouth with a handkerchief, coughed a few times, and then continued:

"Otherwise, someone like our Yingjie, although well-educated, healthy, and good-looking, is still unattainable by Miss Song."

This statement sounds a bit sarcastic.

The doctor frowned slightly when he heard the sound.

Among the concubines, the one she disliked the most was not the Second Wife who always opposed her, nor the young and favored Sixth Wife.

But it was the third wife who had been sick for many years.

The eldest lady often felt that the third lady was like a poisonous snake, who liked to hide behind people and plot against them, and was very sinister.

Nan Xi also heard that there was something wrong with this.

It sounded like he was praising her, but also like he was just recommending his own son.

But in reality, it implies that she is flattering the powerful and only cares about the status of her future husband. Therefore, she gave up the healthy young master of the Jiang family and chose the sick eldest young master who could not show his face in public.

However, based on these words alone, we cannot conclude that she is involved in the murder of the original owner.

So Nan Xi also coughed twice and said:

"Madam, my daughter-in-law hasn't been feeling well lately. So, wouldn't it be a match made in heaven for the young master and I to marry?"

Madam: "..."

There is no way to refute this.

Listen to Nan Xi's voice. Who would dare to say that she is healthy? Her voice is so hoarse that it's about to break.

He gritted his teeth and made the final decision:

"Okay, Nianru. It's destined that we will be mother and daughter. In that case, don't worry, mother will treat you well in the future!"

Then he told the old woman beside him:

"He Ma, go and ask the young master to come over!"
