A lazy bum transmigrates and marries a eunuch – it's awesome!

Jiang Xinyu looked at the thumb-thick ginseng she had brought back and grinned mischievously.

Judging from Chunhong's expression, the mother and daughter definitely didn't have anything nice to say.

But what does that matter?

Anyway, I didn't hear what you were cursing at, so I'll just assume you were cursing yourselves.

If they came to her face and said it, well, she didn't believe these ancient people could curse her more filthily than she could.

Just then, Chunxing returned with a food box, bringing four plates of snacks and peanuts from No. 1 Middle School.

As soon as she put the things down, her unusually young daughter handed her a ginseng root.

She said to send a whole old hen to the kitchen to make a soup for her, and that the ginseng must be whole and not cut, and that Chunxing should keep an eye on it to prevent it from being stolen.

Chunxing answered yes and turned to leave, afraid that if she stayed any longer she would lose control of her expression.

I've only ever heard that brides are so nervous and sweaty before their weddings that they're at a loss for what to do. This girl of hers looks like a starving ghost reincarnated.

Could it be that she discovered the Ningguo Duke's mansion was dirt poor and was afraid she wouldn't be able to eat good food in the future, so she rushed to spend money at her parents' house these past two days?

They licked the lunch table clean, cleaner than a dog, and now they have four plates of pastries and a bowl of cheese. Tonight they'll be stewing a whole chicken with a whole wild ginseng.

Fortunately, the day after tomorrow is the actual day. If I continued eating like this for a month, I probably would have gotten so fat that I wouldn't have been able to get into the bridal sedan chair.

Jiang Xinyu no longer cared what the two maids thought at this point.

Through this wild ginseng, she had also figured out that the household was very tolerant of her.

With the wedding just around the corner, as long as she doesn't cause too much trouble, everyone's better off avoiding complications.

When it was time for dinner, Jiang Xinyu ate all the food, including the chicken soup that she had specifically asked for.

Watching her daughter crunch on a century-old ginseng root like a radish, Chunhong's palms started to sweat.

The wedding is coming up soon, what if the girl gets sick from eating it?

Jiang Xinyu completely failed to grasp Chunhong's anxiety. After eating and drinking her fill and washing up, she said she was sleepy and then sent everyone away.

After pulling down the curtain, Jiang Xinyu tried clenching her fist and felt that she was indeed stronger than before.

It seems that wild ginseng is still effective.

Unfortunately, the energy of these things is still not as great as that of a crystal core.

A century-old ginseng root, which would cause a normal person to have an immediate nosebleed, is just a drop in the ocean for her.

If she wanted to regain her peak condition from the apocalypse, even if she ate three hundred-year-old ginseng roots a day, it would probably take her one or two months to achieve that.

May the God of Time Travel bless her; may she be able to change the original owner's fate and get a different husband.

Otherwise, with that family from the Ningguo Duke's mansion being so exceptional, let alone ginseng, she'd probably have to drastically lower her standards for food as well.

For Jiang Xinyu now, you can deceive my feelings, but you can never deceive my money.

Love is just a pastime; money is what ensures she can afford supplements.

The next morning, Chunhong came early to wake her daughter up.

Today is the big day for the bride to get ready, so we can't let her sleep until noon.

The maidservant also set out breakfast on the table, a whole table full of food, not much in quantity but quite a variety.

Jiang Xinyu yawned as the maids dressed and groomed her, silently thanking the time-traveling god in her heart.

Fortunately, she transmigrated into the body of a wealthy young lady. If she had transmigrated into the body of a poor commoner, the food would probably be worse than what we had in the apocalypse.

Just after finishing her meal, Aunt Liu's maid came over and said that the guests had arrived at the main courtyard and invited the eldest daughter to come over.

Upon arriving at the main courtyard's flower hall, we indeed saw fifty or sixty boxes of various sizes already laid out in the courtyard.

The boxes varied in size and the contents varied in value, but judging from the people around her praising them, Jiang Xinyu knew that these things must be very valuable.

Haha, Liu's move is actually quite clever.

Since the late maternal family is watching over the dowry and she can't touch it anyway, we might as well openly display it as the eldest daughter's dowry. This way, we can also give her a good reputation.

When Jiang Xinyu dies in the future and Jiang Wanqiu marries into her family as her second wife, these things will naturally return to her daughter's hands.

In this way, she wouldn't need to prepare much dowry for Jiang Wanqiu; one dowry for two marriages—truly a clever scheme.

Looking at Jiang Xinyu, who was adorned with jewels and praised by everyone, Liu clenched her fist tightly.

If Wanqiu hadn't said she wanted you to give birth to the child before you died, I would have forced several bowls of sterilization drugs down your throat.

If it weren't for that vile woman Qian's scheming back then, how could I, a daughter of an official, have fallen to the point of becoming a concubine?

According to the laws of the imperial court, once a concubine is a concubine, she remains a concubine for life, and cannot be elevated to the rank of principal wife without significant merit.

Even though I was in charge of the household affairs for many years and there was no difference between me and the mistress of the house, there was still a difference in status, which made my Wanqiu a concubine's daughter.

The thought of Jiang Xinyu's birth mother, Liu, filled him with hatred, and his gaze toward Jiang Xinyu was filled with resentment.

Jiang Wanqiu saw that her mother had gone mad again and quickly pinched her. Only then did Aunt Liu come to her senses and put on a loving face again.

Never mind, the children's reputation is more important.

Killing this little bitch isn't difficult, but it won't silence the gossip.

The master has treated her well, and her nephews and nieces are all seeking marriage partners. She can't ruin her reputation for a moment of pleasure.

Liu was happy to play the virtuous wife, and Jiang Xinyu had no intention of undermining her at this time.

Regardless of whether it's true or not, the warm and friendly atmosphere at the event was quite nice.

When it came time for the dowry-adding ceremony, each lady took the items she had prepared and had her name called out by the maids before being placed into a box.

From a small bracelet to large gold and silver jewelry, no matter the value, it's all a token of someone's goodwill.

Just then, a discordant sound suddenly arose, and the maid, looking at the items, didn't know how to report them.

Everyone's attention was focused on a middle-aged woman who looked slightly plump in a bright red brocade jacket.

The woman was also a straightforward person; she saw the maidservant holding Jiang Xinyu's hand affectionately.

"Yu'er has grown up so much in the blink of an eye. Does she still recognize her aunt?"

After Wang finished speaking, she squeezed Jiang Xinyu's hand. Jiang Xinyu immediately reacted, hugged Wang's hand, and said coquettishly.

"Auntie, what are you saying? Yu'er is just overjoyed."

Why did my aunt, who lives all the way from Jiangnan, come in person?

Wang felt much happier seeing Jiang Xinyu on the right track.

When this girl was little, she was so spoiled by Liu that she couldn't distinguish between family and friends. When the old man wanted to take her home, she cried and refused. Now that she's grown up, she's become sensible.

Liu recognized Madam Wang, and her smile immediately became somewhat forced.

Since she used the excuse that the late madam's maid had stolen something to drive out all the Qian family's servants, the two families have had little contact over the years.

Madam Qian never sent a servant to visit Jiang Xinyu during holidays, so why is she doing this now?

And this brat is acting strangely too. She used to despise merchants for their money, so why is she getting intimate with Wang Shi now?

Unfortunately, in this situation, she had to keep all her questions to herself.

Even if she looked down on Wang Shi as a mere merchant's wife, Wang Shi was a legitimate in-law of the Jiang family, and she was a concubine. In front of outsiders, she had to greet her with a smile.

Madam Qian was also very shrewd and flattered Madam Liu.

It is said that she raised her niece very well, and it was worth it for her sister-in-law to personally arrange for Lady Liu to marry into the Jiang family.

Upon hearing this, Liu felt as if she had swallowed a fly, and almost couldn't even maintain her fake smile.

Some people in the crowd who didn't get along with Liu chuckled quietly.

Despite being the legitimate daughter of an official, she was taken in as a concubine by a woman from a merchant family.

So what if you get exclusive favor? Even if Lord Jiang likes you, you still can't become his official wife.

Qian Wangshi had important business to attend to this time. After making a few sarcastic remarks to Liu Shi, she took out a stack of silver notes, unfolded them, and placed them on the box.

What she pulled out next was a dowry list.

Those with a penchant for such things immediately perked up; this time, there was going to be some excitement.
