The fate was changed, the mistress of the Hou family was slapped in the face and made money to win

Zheng Yan'er's expression froze and she forced a smile.

"I didn't expect you already have one. This bracelet looks pretty good."

Although she always knew that her aunt's family was rich, she never thought that even a maid could wear such a nice bracelet. It seemed that she had come to the right place.

"This was given to me by the young lady on my birthday some time ago." When Biyun mentioned Jiang Suining, a smile appeared on her face involuntarily.

"So it was a reward from Sister Sui Ning. That's really nice." Zheng Yan'er forced a smile.

Jiang Suining is really capable. He has managed to make everyone in the Jiang family obey him.

"Miss, if there is nothing else, I will leave first." Biyun bowed to Zheng Yan'er, "Miss is still waiting for my reply. As for this bracelet, I really can't take it."

Looking at the jade bracelet on Biyun's wrist, Zheng Yan'er smiled and nodded in response, "In that case, I won't keep you here."

After Biyun left, the smile on Zheng Yan'er's face disappeared completely. She looked at the bracelet in her hand that she had just picked out of the luggage, and she felt extremely angry.

She was so angry that she was about to smash the jade bracelet, but after raising her hand, she stopped.

Although the bracelet was of average quality, for her now, she couldn't just smash it.

Zheng Yan'er withdrew her hand with a gloomy look, and made up her mind again that she must stay in the Jiang family, no matter what.

Zheng Yan'er stayed at the Jiang family. Although it was unclear why she came to the Jiang family alone, Zheng did not suspect anything because, after all, she really loved this niece.

Jiang Suining continued to sell ice and took care of Ning Mo Zhai and Ning Yue Pavilion on a daily basis.

Jiang Suining was not surprised at all when he heard the news that Hanyuan Bookstore had taken the students' money and was boycotted. But Biyun, after hearing what some scholars from Ning Mozhai said, felt a surge of indignation in her heart.

When the common people who were enjoying the cool air on the first floor of Ning Mo Zhai heard this, they were also indignant. In contrast, they praised Ning Mo Zhai's benevolence even more.

Soon, amid a chorus of criticism, Hanyuan Bookstore lost the opportunity to rebuild, and the imperial court issued an order to reselect from the bookstores in the imperial city.

Although Ning Mo Zhai is only a new bookstore, its reputation has been growing in recent years. With the recommendation of scholars, it quickly became a popular choice.

When the Jiang family heard the news, they were all very happy. In the past few days, almost everyone at the dinner table was talking about this matter.

"Sui Ning, although our Jiang family has been doing business for generations, we have never opened a bookstore. This is the first time in history. Moreover, if your Ning Mo Zhai can really become a bookstore designated by the court to print books, it will really bring honor to the family!"

Jiang Zhitong's tone was filled with joy, and the expression on his face could even be described as being overjoyed.

In his heart, he has completely regarded Jiang Suining as a member of the Jiang family.

"Father, you are too serious. Besides, this matter has not yet come to a conclusion. Ning Mozhai has only been open for a short time and may not be selected by the court." Jiang Suining had a smile on his face. Things had not yet been successful, so it was too early to talk about bringing honor to the family.

"Sister, don't be so modest. The teacher said that Ning Mozhai has great potential." Jiang Mushi also spoke excitedly.

"The Master also talked about this?" Jiang Suining looked at Jiang Mushi.

The latter nodded, "Of course, the teacher also said that if your Ning Mo Zhai can be selected, it will be an honor for our academy. By the way, the teacher also told you to remember to go back and take a look if you have time."

Jiang Suining smiled and replied, "Okay, I understand."

"Sui Ning, if you need anything next, just let me know. Our Jiang family's top priority right now is to help Ning Mozhai get selected." Jiang Zhitong said again.

Zheng Yan'er, who was standing aside, ate the food in her bowl in a depressed mood. When the meal just started, she had already taken the lead in livening up the atmosphere and attracted the attention of Zheng and the others to herself.

But unexpectedly, before they had said a few words, they talked about Ning Mozhai again. The topic revolved around Jiang Suining. This feeling made her very unhappy.

Zheng Yan'er looked at Zheng, trying to attract the other party's attention and change the subject, but she didn't expect to meet Zheng's gaze when she turned her head.

The latter looked at her hesitantly as if he wanted to say something. This look made Zheng Yan'er's heart skip a beat and she had a bad feeling.

"Aunt, what's wrong with you?" Zheng Yan'er forced a smile and asked casually.

Zheng looked at her for a while before looking away. "Nothing, let's eat. After dinner, you can accompany me to walk in the garden."

Zheng Yan'er responded in confusion.

Jiang Suining's eyes swept between the two of them calmly.

Zheng Yan'er had been in the Jiang family for some time. When she heard that Zheng was going to write a letter to Zheng Yan'er's father to report her safety, Zheng Yan'er immediately offered to do it and write the letter herself.

After learning about this, she asked Biyun to pretend to chat casually with the servants in the mansion, mentioning that the cousin came too suddenly and seemed unwilling to report the news back home.

When Zheng heard this, she became suspicious, so she secretly sent a letter back to her parents' home to inquire about the situation. Calculating the time, she thought that the reply letter must have arrived.

After dinner, Zheng Yan'er accompanied Zheng to the back garden.

"Aunt, it's still a little hot outside tonight. How about I go back to your room and talk with you?" Zheng Yan'er said considerately.

"No need, it's right here." Zheng stopped and looked at Zheng Yan'er, "Yan'er, tell me why you came to the imperial city?"

Zheng Yan'er frowned quickly, "Aunt, didn't I already say that I just miss you."

"Still lying!" Zheng frowned, "I've already written to your father to ask about it. It's obvious that you came here secretly without telling him."

No wonder Yan'er insisted on writing the letter herself to report her safety. In the letter, she said that she was willing to keep her for a while. She hadn't thought much about it at first, but now that she thought about it carefully, the letter was clearly misleading on purpose, as if the letter already knew the reason why she came to the imperial city for refuge.

Zheng Yan'er's face turned pale. She pursed her lips and said, "Aunt, I'm sorry. I know I can't hide it sooner or later, but I really don't know how to tell you. I'm afraid that after you know it, you will ask me to go home and not want to take me in."

Zheng looked at the pitiful Zheng Yan'er. Although she still frowned, the anger on her face faded a little.

"Yan'er, tell me the truth. Why did you sneak into the Imperial City?"
