The mistress died of overwork, and after rebirth, she was bad at raising her cubs

Chapter 305 Are you eager to be someone's stepmother?

In front of Prime Minister Jiang’s mansion.

Jiang Wan looked at Huo Zhanting, her eyes flickering, and said softly:

"Thank you, King Zhan. Then my daughter will..."

"I heard that there is a hundred-year-old crabapple tree in the Prime Minister's Mansion. It is very rare. I wonder if I have the honor to visit the mansion and see it?"

Huo Zhanting's sudden words interrupted Jiang Wan. Upon hearing this, Jiang Wan's eyes flashed with ecstasy, and she nodded quickly:

"If the War King is interested, you are welcome."

So, Huo Zhanting entered Prime Minister Jiang's mansion so openly.

Since Huo Zhanting was not good at conducting himself, Ren Wei and Li Wu naturally had to serve him.

After the group entered the mansion, Huo Zhanting winked at Li Wu who was standing beside him.

Li Wu understood and immediately looked painful. He grabbed the maid beside him and asked someone to take him to the toilet.

Seeing this, Huo Zhanting said helplessly to Jiang Wan: "I'm sorry to make you laugh, Miss Jiang."

Jiang Wan naturally didn't mind and smiled, "How come? Then Wan'er will take you, King Zhan, to appreciate the flowers first?"

"it is good."

Jiang Wan led Huo Zhanting away with a smile, but before leaving, she winked at the maid beside her.

The maid immediately understood and hurriedly followed Li Wu who had just left.

Huo Zhanting and Jiang Wan talked for a while under the crabapple tree, and Jiang Wan did most of the talking.

At this moment, Jiang Yuanbin happened to pass by and saw Huo Zhanting.

Ever since Jiang Yuanbin lost the competition and lost face last time, he has not dared to go out for a long time.

Seeing Huo Zhanting at this time, he naturally hated him as well.

Jiang Yuanbin narrowed his eyes and looked at Jiang Wan, who was standing next to Huo Zhanting with a sweet smile. He walked forward and cursed angrily:

"Big sister! How could you, a woman who has not yet married, bring a stranger home? Are you eager to become someone's stepmother?"

Jiang Wan's face suddenly turned ugly when she heard this. She looked at Jiang Yuanbin awkwardly and said:

"Second brother, what are you talking about? The War King was just worried about me and sent me back. Isn't your nonsense ruining the War King's reputation?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuanbin snorted coldly and said, "What reputation? The reputation of a married man hooking up with an unmarried girl?"

When Jiang Wan heard this, tears immediately fell from her eyes and she cried like a pear blossom in the rain.

Huo Zhanting narrowed his eyes. Before he could speak, Ren Wei angrily said:

"Master Jiang, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. My master is kind-hearted, so why is it so unbearable when it comes to you?"

"Humph! Kind-hearted? He is Huo Junyu's father. Huo Junyu is a bad guy. How can he be good?"

Jiang Yuanbin was so angry when he thought of Huo Junyu that his teeth itched and his words became even more unpleasant.

Huo Zhanting looked at Jiang Yuanbin coldly, and was about to explode when he heard a "pop".

Jiang Wan slapped Jiang Yuanbin in the face. Jiang Yuanbin immediately covered his face and looked at Jiang Wan in shock. He immediately burst into tears and said:

"You dare to hit me? How dare you hit me! I'll let my father beat you to death!" After saying that, Jiang Yuanbin ran away crying, obviously going to file a complaint.

Jiang Wan looked at her hands awkwardly, seeming a little at a loss.

"Is Miss Jiang okay?"

Huo Zhanting's voice rang out, and Jiang Wan immediately came back to her senses.

"I, I'm fine, don't be offended, King Zhan. My second brother has been spoiled to a certain extent. You..."

"It doesn't matter."

Huo Zhanting had already seen Li Wu coming back, and after a pause he continued:

"I have been bothering you for too long. If Prime Minister Jiang wants to embarrass Miss Jiang, you can come to the Zhan Palace. You are on good terms with my wife, so we in the Zhan Palace will not stand idly by."

When Jiang Wan heard this, her eyes dimmed slightly, but she still nodded gratefully and agreed.

After Huo Zhanting left the Jiang family, Li Wu hurriedly stepped forward and said excitedly:

"master……"

Huo Zhanting stopped Li Wu, looked back at the plaque, squinted his eyes and said, "Let's talk about it when we get back."

"Yes!"

When Prime Minister Jiang came back, he saw Madam Jiang holding Jiang Yuanbin to complain.

Hearing that Huo Zhanting had come to the mansion today and had left, Jiang Xiangxiang's heart skipped a beat. He asked Madam Jiang to take Jiang Yuanbin away first, and then he frowned and said:

"Go and call the young lady."

When Jiang Wan arrived, she saw Prime Minister Jiang sitting on a chair with a serious expression.

Her heart moved slightly, and she bowed and said:

"Father, I wonder what is the important matter that you asked your daughter to come here for?"

Upon hearing this, Prime Minister Jiang looked up at Jiang Wan and pointed to the spot next to him.

Jiang Wan understood, then walked forward and sat on the chair, looking at Prime Minister Jiang carefully.

"Why are you with Huo Zhanting today? Why did he come to your house? Do you still have any feelings for him?"

Jiang Wan was stunned for a moment, hiding the sarcasm in her eyes, and then she told him about saving Princess Zhan, and then said:

"Princess Zhan was grateful to my daughter, so she asked Prince Zhan to send my daughter back. Prince Zhan just happened to be in the mood to admire the hundred-year-old crabapple tree in the mansion, so my daughter couldn't refuse."

With a "bang", Jiang Xiangguo slammed the table in anger and shouted at Jiang Wan:

"Is it a real coincidence or a fake coincidence? Do you really think I'm old and confused and don't know?"

Jiang Wan saw that Prime Minister Jiang was furious at this time, but she did not show any fear at all.

She just sneered, looked at Jiang Xiangguo with amusement and said:

"Father, you are joking. Father is in good health and still strong at old age. How could he be confused? If he was confused, how could the concubine in the backyard take in one concubine after another?"

Jiang Wan's mother passed away a few years ago, and Prime Minister Jiang remarried a second wife not long after that, and he also took in countless concubines in the backyard.

That is Jiang Yuanbin, born to Jiang Wan’s stepmother.

As soon as Jiang Wan said this, Jiang Xiangguo's face suddenly turned ugly. He looked at Jiang Wan in surprise and said with a sad face:

"When your mother passed away, your father was also very sad. Your father has already told you that no matter what, you are the eldest daughter of the Jiang family. Ask yourself, have you ever been harsh to me over the years?"

"Father, you are joking. As a first-rank minister of the court, how could you possibly be so harsh to your daughter? After all, even if you are the prime minister, you still have to worry about being criticized by the censors."

As Jiang Wan said this, a polite smile appeared on her face.

But when Prime Minister Jiang heard these words, he felt as if Jiang Wan was stabbing his heart with a dagger!

Prime Minister Jiang looked at Jiang Wan, opened his mouth and pointed at Jiang Wan angrily, saying:

"Are you still blaming your father? Just because your mother died, does that mean your father should never marry again for her? Don't you know that our Jiang family has a weak foundation and not many descendants?"

"If your father doesn't marry again and doesn't have children for the Jiang family, who will help you even if you get married in the future? Your father is doing this for your own good, but you..."

Jiang Xiangguo was interrupted by Jiang Wan before he could finish his words. Jiang Wan stood up, bowed to Jiang Xiangguo, and said with a hint of sarcasm in her eyes:

"Thank you, father, for taking so much trouble for your daughter. However, it is boring to talk about the past over and over again. Father has his own plans, and so does daughter. I just hope that father and daughter can keep their own affairs separate."

Prime Minister Jiang was so angry at Jiang Wan that he almost vomited blood. He pointed at Jiang Wan in anger and said:

"what on earth do you want?"

Jiang Wan shook her head and looked at Jiang Xiangguo seriously:

"Everything Wan'er did was for her own happiness. I don't think it has anything to do with your overall situation, so you don't have to worry."

Jiang Xiangguo took a deep breath, sat back in his chair, and then drank a sip of tea to suppress his anger. After calming down, he said:

"You really haven't given up on King Zhan, but you should know that there is no one in King Zhan's mansion who is easy to deal with. You..."

"That's your daughter's choice, father."

Prime Minister Jiang didn't expect Jiang Wan to be so persistent. He pursed his lips and waved his hand weakly.

Jiang Wan immediately bowed to Prime Minister Jiang and left.
