In the side room, Jiang Jiang still looked angry.
Chu Yunyue followed her happily, holding the corner of Jiang Jiang's clothes with her slender hands.
"elder sister?"
Chu Yunyue called her weakly.
"Ugh."
Jiang Jiang sighed.
"Go play somewhere else. I'm a little tired." Jiang Jiang patted the back of Chu Yunyue's hand and took a small object from the table and gave it to her. Chu Yunyue was very obedient and turned around to go play somewhere else.
Seeing the well-behaved and sensible heroine who was like a little pet, Jiang Jiang's mood suddenly improved a little bit——
Look at Chu Yunyue, even when she is stupid, she is so sensible and never makes anyone worry.

During dinner, Jiang Ping and Mu Wanling also came back. It seemed that the two had already negotiated a price with the Wang family. After all, Liuquan Lane suffered a disaster yesterday and the houses here were severely damaged. Although someone would repair them in the future, so many people died in this lane, which was unlucky after all. The Wang family also wanted to sell the yard quickly.
"Chaosheng, your mother and I heard about the Hundred Virtues List when we came back tonight. We can't afford to spend much money in our current situation, but I will call on the students in my private school and the neighbors in Liuquan Lane to help you. We don't have money, so we can just contribute our labor!"
When Jiang Ping said this, his expression was serious and his eyes were exceptionally calm. Too many things had happened recently, especially the affairs of the Li family, which seemed to have made him figure something out.
"I understand, Dad." Jiang Chaosheng didn't say much and just kept picking up the food in silence the whole time.
"I'm done eating."
Jiang Jiang was particularly quiet today. He was the first to put down his chopsticks and turn around to walk out.
Mu Wanling glanced at Jiang Jiang, then at her son, who was eating his meal. "Chaosheng, who messed with your sister? Did you two have a fight?"
"No, I'm done eating too."
Jiang Chaosheng also put down his chopsticks at this time, turned around and walked out quickly.
Today is the seventeenth day of the lunar month. The moon in the sky is still big and round, and the sky is full of stars, shining brightly.
Jiang Jiang was sitting alone in the corner of the yard, looking up at the starry sky in a daze.
She is reflecting deeply.
I shouldn't have meddled in Jiang Chaosheng's affairs.
Jiang Chaosheng sat next to Jiang Jiang without saying a word.
Jiang Jiang curled her lips and subconsciously moved her butt to create some distance between herself and Jiang Chaosheng.
Jiang Chaosheng lowered his eyes to look at the little girl who was still angry with him, raised his big hand, placed it on Jiang Jiang's head, and rubbed her hair hard.
"Jiang Chaosheng, I'm going to fight you!"
Jiang Jiang was completely furious! This guy actually messed up her hair!
"How dare you call me by my full name!"
Jiang Chaosheng was also angry, and the two of them started to fight. After a long time, Jiang Jiang was exhausted and could only sit down on the steps with messy hair.
The moonlight was bright, and Jiang Chaosheng sat next to Jiang Jiang, with the brother and sister leaning back to back.
"Brother, I shouldn't interfere in your emotional affairs, but if you don't like Sister E'er, you should tell her clearly as soon as possible."
In fact, Jiang Jiang didn't know why Huang E'er liked Jiang Chaosheng, but she could feel that Huang E'er had deep feelings for Jiang Chaosheng. In her era, Huang E'er was a complete love-brained person. She would not listen to what others said unless Jiang Chaosheng told her in person.
After hearing Jiang Jiang's words, Jiang Chaosheng remained silent.
"Hey, I'm talking to you, why are you pretending to be mute?" Jiang Jiang raised his arm and nudged Jiang Chaosheng's back with his elbow.
"Actually...it's not...I don't dislike it."
Jiang Chaosheng's voice was very soft and a little shy.
Before today, he didn't know what it felt like to like someone.
But now, when he thought of Huang E'er, he felt a little... anxious and didn't know how to face her.
"Miss Huang, she...she is a...good girl."
Jiang Chaosheng stammered as he spoke, saying that his ideal partner should be a woman who is well-educated, gentle, virtuous, and willing to support his career.
And Huang E'er...seemed to perfectly meet his requirements.
"Heh, man."
Jiang Jiang curled her lips in disdain when she heard that.
At this time, Jiang Jiang didn't know that the script in her elder brother's hand was a hundred times better than Liu Cheng'an's, and Huang E'er's future love rivals would be more difficult to deal with.

**
Under the moonlight, Jiang Chaosheng didn't seem to hear the sarcasm in Jiang Jiang's tone. At this moment, he seemed a little worried: "The court will soon begin appointing new Jinshi and recruiting officials. If she stays with me, I'm afraid it will... make her suffer."
Throughout history, the disciples of Prime Minister Gu have had a difficult future in the court.
"Then, big brother, what kind of official do you want to be?"
Jiang Jiang turned to look at Jiang Chaosheng, and his expression became serious.
Jiang Chaosheng's future is related to the future of their family, so this choice does need to be made carefully.
"I've studied for so many years. Once I pass the imperial examination, I naturally hope to become a local official and speak for the people!" Jiang Chaosheng's voice was particularly resounding, but he paused and lowered his voice a little: "However, the situation in the court is complicated, and there won't be so many vacancies at once."
Apart from the top three in the palace examination, the positions of the others still need to be examined a lot, and the events in the outer city this time will provide a good opportunity for the children of aristocratic families to perform.
Jiang Chaosheng has no money and no power, so he is afraid that he will not be able to achieve any results this time. He knows that if he waits for the officials to be recruited, he will not get any good position.
"Actually, I think there's a place that's perfect for you, big brother."
Jiang Jiang said in a condescending tone, "The Ministry of Industry, I heard it's always short of people. To do things for the people, you don't have to be a parent official. If you go to the Ministry of Industry, you can also do practical things for the people, and even... you can benefit the whole country!!"
"Haha."
After hearing Jiang Jiang's words, Jiang Chaosheng couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Little girl, do you think you are the Minister of Personnel? I can go wherever you want me to go? Although the Ministry of Works is the least impressive of the six ministries, the people in it are all talented people who know everything about astronomy and geography, and there are also many skilled craftsmen. What can I do there?"
"That's not necessarily true. You haven't gone yet. If you really go to the Ministry of Industry, you will be able to do everything."
Jiang Jiang was talking on the side, but she was thinking in her heart, my elder brother has such good luck, it would be great if he could really stay in the capital and join the Ministry of Works, then her book "The Exploitation of the Works of Nature" would come in handy.
"Okay, stop dreaming, I have something important to tell you."
Jiang Chaosheng didn't want to discuss such unrealistic issues with Jiang Jiang anymore.
He stood up and walked to Jiang Jiang's side, leaning close to her and whispering, "Do you know... the true identity of that little fool?"
"What little fool? I have a name."
Jiang Jiang rolled her eyes. The heroine also needs to show off, okay?
"Yes, I know she has a name. Her name is Chu Yunyue, and she's the eldest daughter of the Chu family!" Jiang Chaosheng's voice was low. After hearing this, Jiang Jiang turned to look at him in surprise: "Chu... Chu family? The Chu family in the capital?"
Big brother, you know the identity of the heroine so quickly?
But it makes sense when you think about it. After all, the matter of the Chu family's eldest daughter is a joke in the capital. Many people in the capital know about it. Although they don't know Chu Yunyue, they all know her name and that she is crazy and stupid.
"Brother, then... then should we send her back? I didn't expect she has such a great background." Jiang Jiang's acting skills have improved a lot recently, and Jiang Chaosheng on the side didn't see any flaws in her at all.
"Send her back?" Hearing Jiang Jiang's words, Jiang Chaosheng laughed sarcastically: "Do you know what I learned from the Chu family's maid today? She told me that their eldest daughter is terminally ill, and the Chu family is preparing for the funeral these days!"
"Lie..."
Jiang Jiang almost wanted to curse.
This old man from the Chu family is so inhumane. Instead of coming out to look for his own daughter after she went missing, he just held a funeral for her?
