"Screech!" Lady Jiang smiled at Lan Xin who stood beside her grandmother. In her usual exaggerated tone, she asked, "Whose little girl is she?" The flower bud is truly lovable! "

The ladies had their own way of socializing, and the little girls had their own way of speaking.

Second Miss Chiang, who was standing next to Madame Chiang, was wearing a aqua green concoction. She was wearing the same kind of robe as me, except that hers was a wide sleeved one with emerald teeth and pearl buttons, and it was even more graceful than mine.

At first she stood patiently by her mother's side, but then she winked at me and smiled, and when she saw Lan Xin on my left and right, supporting my grandmother, her face suddenly grew heavy.

While her mother was around Grandmother and everyone was surrounding Grandmother and Lanxin, no one noticed her and me, and she immediately scowled and hurried past the door, pulling me aside to talk.

"Who is this?" Second Miss Jiang angrily spat at Lan Xin, who was greeting Lady Jiang with a smile while holding hands with her grandmother.

I couldn't help covering my mouth and laughing.

Although this straightforward personality of Second Miss Jiang had caused quite a bit of trouble, she was truly adorable.

"This is my cousin!" I replied with a smile.

"She's so beautiful!" Second Miss Jiang cast another glance at Lan Xin before turning her head to whisper to me. "Look at her face! It's as white as milk!"

It was unknown whether it was because Sir Jiang was a military general or not, but the skin of the two young ladies of the Jiang family was the color of healthy wheat.

My skin color is also yellow.

If he stood together with Lan Xin, it would make her seem even whiter and more slender.

"That's right!" I smiled and pulled Second Miss Jiang's hand as I whispered to her: "Look at her face, it's the standard oval face. It's so pretty!"

I had a round face, and I envied the egg-faced women.

Second Miss Jiang gave me a fierce glare and shook off my hand. She pointed her finger at me in disappointment. "You really have no sense of what I'm saying!"

"Fortunately …"

Saying this, Second Miss Jiang suddenly stopped. She covered her mouth as if she was afraid she would say something she shouldn't have.

"What's good?" I asked, smiling.

What would frighten the fearless Second Miss Jiang?

"No …." "It's nothing!" Second Miss Jiang gave me an awkward smile and stuck out her tongue.

"What on earth is going on?!" I glared at her and pointed at her armpits.

It means I'm going to tickle her if she doesn't tell me.

"I've already said that everything is fine!" Second Miss Jiang subconsciously took two steps back and looked at me timidly.

"I don't like her at first glance!" In the blink of an eye, Second Miss Jiang came to my side and whispered into my ear.

Remembering Lan Xin's usually hasty personality, I felt that the two of them must have gotten along very well.

"Wan Rou, come quickly and greet your sister!" Before I could answer Second Miss Jiang's question, she was called over by Lady Jiang.

Seeing Second Miss Jiang unwillingly greet Lan Xin, he knew that Second Miss Jiang had already prejudiced against Lan Xin.

Lan Xin looked at me with a smile that wasn't a smile. There was a hint of contempt in her eyes, as if she was asking me how I could use such a despicable method to make things difficult for her.

I grimaced.

I didn't do anything.

Lady Jiang was helping my grandmother in the door. Second Miss Jiang followed closely by my side, gossiping. Every time I wanted to invite Lan Xin, who was left behind, I would be interrupted by Second Miss Jiang.

When they entered the room, Lan Xin was left alone at the back. Fortunately, she had an elegant posture and a calm expression, as if she didn't care at all.

Entering the door, I saw that there were several ladies sitting in the room. Only then did I realize that the day that Eldest Miss Jiang had chosen with all her heart could be considered as a free day.

The ladies who should have been staying in the mansion to help Mrs. Xue make her birthday were all sitting in the main hall of the Jiang family.

On the master chair to the right of the hall, there was a lady who was smiling and greeting the daughter of the Xu family. Besides Mrs. Xue and the Qin family, who else could it be? Besides Miss Xue, I can't think of anyone else besides the girl behind her who is wearing a goose yellow half-arms and long eyebrows.

It looked like Mrs. Xue was really worried about the marriage of her eldest daughter, who had done well in both words and virtue. Otherwise, she wouldn't be running around the Jiang family so frequently.

Even if the Jiang Clan agreed to this marriage, the Xue Clan would inevitably be left behind.

If Miss Xue were to marry into the family, although she would be the first wife of Sir Jiang, he was third in the younger generation. As long as there was no division of families, it would never be Miss Xue's turn to be the Jiang family's imperial concubine.

Sir Jiang wasn't born out of a concubine, so apart from his family being ruined, there was absolutely no possibility of him being part of a branch sect.

Thinking about it this way, the reason Mrs. Xue was so keen on this marriage was probably because she had her eyes on the young master Jiang.

Although the two young misses from the Jiang family had heard of what happened to Young Master Jiang, they had all said how much he doted on his two younger sisters and hadn't mentioned what kind of person he was.

Someone who could make Mrs. Xue put in so much effort should be a brilliant young man!

Looking at Lady Jiang's delicate and pretty appearance and the thick brows and big eyes of the two young ladies of the Jiang family, Young Master Jiang's looks must not be inferior at all!

The corners of my mouth curled up slightly. I wonder which one of Young Master Jiang and Xue Lang is more handsome?

When I was in my father's study, I happened to glance at Xue Lang through the curtain.

Xue Lang's gentle smile carried within it a pride that was as candid as a youth's unique sunlight, causing his exquisite features to gain an even more heroic air.

"Little sister, what are you thinking so happily about?" Lan Xin and I stood behind Grandmother. Our smiles were gentle and harmless, but our words were as cold as ice water.

Since yesterday, Lan Xin had become extremely weird. She no longer had her usual mischievous spirit and instead became a bit more irritable.

"Nothing." I smiled faintly, as if I didn't understand the sarcasm in her words.

Grandmother was allowed a seat, smiling to introduce Lan Xin to the Xu family and Mrs. Xue.

"Look at the daughters of the Yang family, each one is more beautiful than the last, like a spring onion."

Regardless of their sincerity or pretense, all of the ladies were very cooperative.

Whether it was a hairpin or a bracelet, they had to go through a circle of etiquette. Behind Lan Xin, Chun Yu was holding a pile of gift boxes.

Looking at the large and small wooden boxes, I smiled and wondered if it would be a way for me to get rich if I brought a few more girls home and brought them to a few more banquets.

Seeing that everyone had greeted each other, Lady Jiang smiled and said something to the maidservant beside her. That maidservant nodded and quickly ran away.

Not long later, he saw several maids escorting a tall and slender young girl who wore a bright red half arm and pink 24 pairs of bright white teeth. The maid from before also lowered her head and obediently followed behind him.

It was none other than Miss Jiang, whom he had not seen for a long time.

It was much taller than the last time I had seen it, and there was a shy smile on her face, and a faint blush on her cheeks, and a youthful shyness.

First, she saluted the elders, and then it was the young ladies of the same generation. When she saw my eyes light up, a sincere smile appeared on her face.

"Yuanyuan'er!" She pursed her lips and smiled at me.

Previously he called me Miss Yang, and later he called me Little Sister Yang, but now he's called Chong'er!

Is this a form of recognition?

I was infected by Miss Jiang's smile and laughed along with her.

"Look at these two idiots in my house, once they see Miss Yang, it's as if they can't walk!" Madame Jiang pointed at me and the two ladies of the Jiang family, laughing and sighing.

"This is fate!" Second Madam Xu covered her mouth with a handkerchief and laughed.

Lady Xu, who was standing behind Lady Xu with the teapot in her hands, trembled and nearly slipped the teacup in her hands.

The rest of the ladies were attentive, holding a teacup like a Buddha.

Eldest Miss Xue, who was sitting under Mrs. Xue, smiled wryly as she quietly sipped the tea in her hand.

I suddenly understood Miss Xue's feelings very well.

A girl like Miss Xue who was born, looked, had talent, and had skills. Now, not only was the marriage difficult, she even had to compete with an ordinary girl like Lady Xu, who had a dull appearance. How could it not be a pity?

It was a sad feeling of a tiger being bullied by a dog.

"Although it's still a little early, let's eat first!" Madame Jiang turned a deaf ear to Mrs. Xu's words, smiling as she invited the ladies over for dinner.

By the side, Lady Wen was talking to Lady Zhang who had come alone like him. When the two of them heard Lady Jiang's words, they smiled and agreed. "We, who didn't bring our daughter here, have long fallen into an empty city trap!"

Miss Wen was a virgin, but Miss Zhang …

I used to wonder how Miss Zhang could behave like that.

Madam Zhang seemed to be a young lady of great family, and her manners were all very dignified. How could she allow her daughter to develop such a prideful personality?

It was only after she asked Old Lady Zhou later that she found out that the Zhang ancestors had given birth to a general of their own country. However, due to the lack of people, it gradually declined. Currently, Zhang Dazhi was a descendant of the Zhang family, a direct descendant of the Zhang family. Because of his leg ailment, the previous emperor had taken care of him.

It was precisely because of the difficulty of being a son that the Zhang family was very pampered, especially the girls, who had developed a proud and willful personality.

As for Ms. Zhang, because the original Mrs. Zhang had died early, Zhang Dazhi was afraid of abusing his wife and children, so he married the late Mrs. Zhang's first cousin, who was also the current Mrs. Zhang.

Pity this little Mrs. Zhang, not only did she marry her brother-in-law at such a young age, but because her background was not high, she could neither beat nor scold the pair of children left behind by her cousin. The boy was in the outer court, and at least the teacher, master and father managed him, but the daughter was left in the inner court under the guidance of her mother.

Speaking of which, Lady Zhang was also a woman with a bitter life …

He looked at the smiling Madame Wen sitting beside Zhu Cui. Although she was several tens of years younger than Madam Wen, her originally delicate and pretty face now had a tinge of haggardness, as if she was even older than Madam Wen.

It can be seen that marrying the right person is very important to a woman's life.
