Back to the day I married my second wife, I turned around and married my ex-husband's uncle

Jiang Bingde, who was walking outside, happened to hear it. He walked into the room and saw Jiang Ningwan holding the wedding dress and going behind the screen.

Then he left the room and waited.

Jiang Xiru was extremely nervous and began to inhale unconsciously when trying this set of moves.

But this time the belt was tied exceptionally smoothly.

Jiang Ningwan also spoke respectfully, "This suit is so gorgeous. If paired with the phoenix crown, the Second Young Miss will surely be stunningly gorgeous. Why don't you order this suit?"

Jiang Xiru snorted coldly, and said arrogantly, "What? You want to slack off?"

"I haven't finished trying on wedding dresses yet, how can I choose one?"

"Go on, change me into the next set."

The two walked out from behind the screen, and just as Jiang Xiru was about to choose her next wedding dress, Jiang Bingde walked in with a serious expression.

He heard the conversation just now.

The anger was hard to hide between her brows. "Xiru, there are so many palace maids and servants outside. Can't they help you try on the clothes? Do you have to let your sister do it?"

When Jiang Bingde heard Xiru treating Ningwan like a maid, he felt really upset.

Her mother is gone, and there was no one to send her off for marriage. Now she has to help Xiru change into her wedding dress, bowing and nodding all the time. It's really heartbreaking to see her like that.

Jiang Xiru was stunned for a moment, and immediately felt aggrieved, "Dad, it was the Queen Mother who asked her to do it, not me."

"I asked, it was the Queen who asked her to send the wedding dress for you to choose, not to serve you." Jiang Bingde looked displeased.

"Okay, try it now, don't waste time."

"Ling'er, come and help the second young lady try on clothes."

Ling'er entered the room immediately.

Jiang Xiru felt very aggrieved after being blamed.

Jiang Bingde then put on a kind smile and looked at Jiang Ningwan, "Ningwan, it's rare for you to come back. Let's have dinner at home tonight."

"I recently got some good tea. How about drinking tea and playing chess with me?"

When Jiang Bingde said this, his palms were sweating from nervousness.

Jiang Ningwan looked at the room full of wedding dresses and jewelry. Jiang Xiru would definitely delay the process, and she might not be able to complete the task tomorrow. She would have to stay in the Duke's Mansion and watch her choose the wedding dress.

"it is good."

Finally waiting for her answer, Jiang Bingde's mood suddenly brightened.

Jiang Ningwan walked out of the room.

Jiang Bingde turned around and sternly told Jiang Xiru: "Don't waste time, try on the clothes quickly."

"Ning Wan will return to the palace tomorrow to report to the Empress!"

After saying that, Jiang Bingde took Jiang Ningwan away from Qinghui Garden.

Jiang Xiru stamped her feet in anger, her eyes full of resentment.

If this continues, Dad will be snatched away by Jiang Ningwan sooner or later!

When Jiang Ningwan arrived at Jiang Bingde's yard, she discovered that the peach trees planted in the yard had withered and were now bare.

Jiang Ningwan couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Jiang Bingde noticed this and also stopped, standing with his hands behind his back and said with a smile: "When you were a child, you loved swinging under that big peach tree. Unfortunately, the tree died and was dug up."

"Recently, I suddenly felt that something was missing in this yard, so I planted a peach tree in the original place."

The yard seemed to have returned to its former appearance, but people could no longer return to the way they were before.

Jiang Ningwan retracted her gaze and said, "I planted a new one, and it's not the same one as before."

Hearing this, Jiang Bingde's eyes dimmed.

Arriving at the pavilion in the courtyard, Jiang Bingde had a chessboard set up and brewed some newly arrived tea. The aroma of tea filled the air, and the courtyard was quiet, giving people a sense of peace.

The two started playing chess.

Jiang Ningwan was just trying to kill time.

He played several games with Jiang Bingde, winning two games each.

Jiang Bingde was in a very good mood and felt proud. "It's been a long time since we played chess together. Your chess skills have become even better!"

Ever since Jiang Ningwan left, he usually played chess alone. Occasionally, Jiang Xiru would play with him for a while, but her chess skills were much worse than Jiang Ningwan's. He usually gave in to Jiang Xiru like coaxing a child, and rarely had the pleasure of meeting a rival in chess.

Looking back now, Ning Wan was brought up so well, and with her intelligence, she should have had an excellent husband. How could Qin Beihuang be worthy of her?

He shouldn't have married Ning Wan to Qin Beihuang in the first place.

I don’t know what he was thinking at the time. He wanted to marry Ning Wan to Qin Beihuang even though he knew he was going to the war.

It nearly ruined her life.

"Duke Jiang, the relationship between father and daughter is a thing of the past. Let's forget about it as soon as possible." Jiang Ningwan said calmly, picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Jiang Bingde's face froze slightly.

Ning Wan hasn't forgiven him yet.

But being willing to play chess with him today is already a good progress!

He should be content.

At this moment, a servant came to report: "Duke, dinner is ready."

"Ningwan, let's have dinner." Jiang Bingde stood up.

When Jiang Ningwan and Jiang Bingde arrived, Qi and Jiang Xiru had already sat down.

But both mother and daughter looked unhappy.

When Jiang Ningwan went up to take a look, she found that the table was full of her favorite dishes.

"Ningwan, I don't know if your taste has changed now. I prepared everything according to your previous preferences."

Jiang Ningwan nodded lightly without answering.

Although her attitude was cold, Jiang Bingde was still very happy and kept picking up food for her during the meal.

I just want to give her all the delicious food on the table.

Jiang Ningwan didn't say anything and just ate in silence.

Qi and Jiang Xiru ate this meal with resentful looks on their faces, unable to eat at all as they looked at the table full of food.

When they were almost done with dinner, Jiang Bingde asked, "Ningwan, why don't you stay here tonight?"

"You haven't lived in Xiaoxiang Residence yet."

Jiang Ningwan's attitude was indifferent. "It's not my yard, why would you live here?"

Qi, who had been holding her anger, finally couldn't stand it anymore and threw down her chopsticks.

"Jiang Ningwan, stop it!"

"What do you want to do? Do you still want Xiru to return Qinghui Garden to you? How can you be so petty?"

Ever since Jiang Ningwan stopped associating with the Duke's Mansion, Jiang Bingde has been angry with her for this matter. Now, how far does he want to push her?

Jiang Ningwan calmly put down her chopsticks, wiped her mouth, and said quietly, "You said give it back to me? So you knew it was mine too."

"But I wouldn't dare take it if I gave it to you."

"I won't come back to fight with your daughter. You're overthinking it."

"It's just a meal, and it makes you so angry. If I had known, I wouldn't have eaten it."

Jiang Ningwan's words of giving in made Jiang Bingde furious.

Qi pushed Jiang Ningwan even further away from him!

Jiang Bingde slammed the table angrily and glared at Qi.

"That's enough! Ning Wan finally came back, what do you want to do?"

"Qinghui Garden originally belonged to Ning Wan. It's just a courtyard. What's there to fight over?"

"Xiru will move to Xiaoxiang Residence tonight, vacate Qinghui Garden, and restore it to its previous layout!"

When these words were spoken, Jiang Xiru and Qi both widened their eyes in shock.

"Dad! I'm getting married soon. It would be so troublesome to move the yard at this time!"

Who would want to live in such a remote courtyard like Xiaoxiangju!

But Jiang Bingde said, "The servants are moving it, not asking you to move it, what's the trouble?"

After saying that, Jiang Bingde immediately ordered: "Come here, move all of the Second Miss's things to Xiaoxiang Residence!"
