Being tortured by her whole family, she no longer pretends to be a real daughter!

"Grandma, let's eat."

Jiang Cixi avoided the main point and slowly placed a bowl of corn flakes soaked in milk in front of the old lady, then drank the soup in front of her.

Jiang Cixi eats very elegantly, and her every move and gesture exudes a noble temperament that is neither too salty nor too bland.

The old lady glared at Jiang Cixi, then pouted and pretended to be angry.

Jiang Cixi was no longer surprised and smiled softly, "Okay, don't be angry. You want to hold your great-grandson, but I can't make one out of thin air for you, so don't think about it. Think of something else."

The old lady curled her lips and asked, "Why on earth don't you let my great-grandson hold you?"

A trace of deep helplessness flashed across Jiang Cixi's eyes. "Didn't I say it? I've seen through the world, so I won't get married and have children in this life."

Old Mrs. Jiang: “…”

She was so angry, "What about our Jiang family? Doesn't that mean there will be no successor to the Jiang family?"

Jiang Cixi glanced at Jiang Wuya who was standing beside him. "Isn't Wuya still here? After I die, I'll let Wuya take over the management of the Jiang family."

"How can this be possible?" The old lady glared at Jiang Wuya with disdain. "He's such a useless guy. If the Jiang family were handed over to him, it would collapse in one day."

Jiang Wuya didn't say anything, he just smiled awkwardly.

Old Madam Jiang looked at Jiang Cixi again and said, "My dear granddaughter, please be kind and give me a daughter. I beg you to do me a favor and give me a daughter as soon as possible. It's not too late to start raising her now."

Jiang Cixi drank the last mouthful of soup in the bowl, stood up, and smiled, "Grandma, there is a meeting between the seven major clans and the royal family today. I'll be leaving first."

Before Jiang Cixi left, she instructed the housekeeper, "Bring breakfast to Lin Yusheng when she wakes up."

"Yes."

Old Madam Jiang looked at Jiang Cixi's back, snorted, and suddenly her eyes rolled, "Housekeeper, what did Cixi say just now? Who did you deliver breakfast to?"

"It's a girl from China," the butler said. "Miss Jiang Cixi seems to have some special feelings for that girl. She specially let her stay in the castle, right next door to Miss Cixi."

"How old is the girl?" asked Old Mrs. Jiang.

"Judging from his appearance, he has just reached adulthood."

"Why did Cixi let her stay in the castle?"

"I'm not sure about that." The butler shook his head.

After all, she couldn't guess what Jiang Cixi was thinking.

Old Mrs. Jiang didn't ask any more questions and went back to her room to rest.

After Jiang Wuya finished his breakfast, he hurried out.

-

It was already nine o'clock when Lin Yusheng woke up.

After breakfast, she came to the main hall. Apart from the housekeeper, there were only a few maids cleaning the room. She didn't see Jiang Cixi.

"Miss Cixi is out and shouldn't be back until tonight," the housekeeper said. "Miss Lin, Miss Cixi told you before she left that you're not allowed to enter the main hall. You can wander around the rest of the castle freely. There are hot springs, gardens, and some large animals in the mountains behind the castle. If you're interested, you can go there and explore."

"I see."

The Jiang family's castle is even bigger than the Mo family's castle she had seen before. The room she lived in alone was one hundred square meters. There were probably hundreds of rooms like this on the same floor, large and small.

Moreover, the top of the castle is almost the same height as the top of the mountain. The entire castle is estimated to have more than seven or eight floors. If you want to tour the entire castle, it will probably take a whole day and night.

Lin Yusheng was strolling around.

Suddenly she ran into Xu Lin who was patrolling with several guards.

Xu Lin frowned fiercely when he saw Lin Yusheng, and said viciously, "You shameless person, you actually used sweet words to deceive Miss Cixi and even persuaded her to let you stay here. I tell you, no matter what you want to do, I will keep an eye on you. If you dare to steal anything from this castle, I will make you pay!"

He really couldn't understand why Miss Cixi would let a dirty thief live in the castle. Wasn't she afraid that he would pollute the air of the castle?

Lin Yusheng glanced at Xu Lin with amusement. "You were whipped ten times yesterday, aren't you still hurt? Do you need another whipping to learn your lesson?"

When Xu Lin was mentioned about pain, his face suddenly became extremely ugly.

His face was gloomy. "You'd better not reveal anything. Sooner or later, I will let Miss Cixi see your true face!"

"Then you'd better not act on your own again, otherwise I will let Jiang Cixi beat you up again sooner or later."

Lin Yusheng left after saying this.

"You..." Xu Lin stared at the girl's back, so angry that he almost rushed over to beat her up. "I don't believe Miss Cixi would let someone like you live here forever. You'll have to get out sooner or later!"

He knew that Lin Yusheng's stay in the castle must be temporary. After all, the castle did not allow outsiders from the Jiang family to live there permanently. Once she left, he would no longer have to see such dirty things.

At this moment, the guard beside him reminded: "Brother Xu, Miss Ximin is here."

Xu Lin turned his head and saw several young men and women walking towards him.

The leader was Jiang Ximin, the granddaughter of the third elder of the Jiang family. Jiang Ximin's brother Jiang Siyun was also there, as well as two young men, Murong Yifei from the Murong family and Xie Jingyu from the Xie family.

In addition, the second elder’s granddaughter Jiang Xiran also followed behind them.

There were five people in the group, all of them were familiar faces, and they were princesses and young masters of noble status.

Seeing this, Xu Lin went over to them, his attitude very respectful. "Ms. Ximin, are you planning to go to the back of the castle to play?"

"That's right." Jiang Ximin smiled, looking very calm and confident. "Brother Yifei and I are planning to go to the archery range in the back to practice archery."

Most of the children in the Jiang family can ride horses and shoot arrows, and can also play with guns, so there is a special training ground behind the castle. Jiang Ximin has been a frequent visitor there recently, sometimes staying there for the whole day. At lunchtime, a servant will bring them lunch.

"Okay, Miss Ximin, have fun."

Xu Lin said this and stepped aside to let them pass.

Jiang Ximin suddenly asked, "Xu Shouwei, who was that girl you were talking to just now? Why haven't you seen her before?"

Xu Lin thought of Lin Yusheng, and his eyes turned disgusted again. He said with disdain, "She's just a thief who stole things and refused to admit it. Not only that, she's still living here for no reason. How shameless!"

Jiang Ximin heard this and immediately showed a mocking smile on his face, "That's funny, she's not a member of the Jiang family, nor is she a friend of our Jiang family, so why does she live here?"

"Who knows?" Xu Lin said mockingly, "I also think she has no right to live here. She's hanging around here, probably just to get some free food and drinks."

"Here we are fed with delicacies from land and sea, fish and meat every day, the living quarters are spacious and bright, and there are servants to serve us. This kind of aristocratic treatment is definitely not something she, a thief, can enjoy on a normal day."
