My husband is cold and heartless, we are reborn and divorced

Jiang Wan kept looking at the old lady sitting on the throne, not lowering her head like before, "My mother-in-law is right."

However, Jiang Wan's expression didn't look like he really listened.

The old lady Li saw Jiang Wan's previous cowardice and obedience.

It was because he knew Jiang Wan would not refute that he dared to scold her in front of the servants without caring about Jiang Wan's face.

Jiang Wan wouldn't do anything anyway, and he certainly wouldn't lose his temper in public.

Jiang Wan leaned sideways on the armchair, completely without any manners, but her sickly appearance today made people feel the charm of a sick beauty.

Jiang Wan said leisurely, "Today, the master held my hand and told me that he wanted to hand over the power of the housekeeper to me. However, I felt that I lacked experience, so I told the master that my mother would be better in charge now."

Jiang Wan knew that those bills were the money that Li used from the Duke's Mansion to subsidize her own impoverished family.

Not long after, the emperor asked all the major families to donate money to Yongzhou for disaster relief. Fu Yan agreed, but after returning, Li couldn't match the bill.

Fu Yan could never have imagined that the person who was checking the accounts was his own mother, and that she could actually do such a thing.

Since she has emptied her family, she has to subsidize her helpless family.

Especially her younger brother is also a good-for-nothing.

Even at this age, he still doesn’t have a proper official position.

I still rely on my family for subsidies every day.

Every day he either goes to brothels or eats and drinks with his group of friends.

Jiang Wan would never just take over the account book like he did in his previous life. Isn't that asking for trouble?

In this life, let Li hold on to the power in her hands. When Fu Yan finds out, he will know exactly what kind of person his mother is.

Jiang Wan thought that although he had no power now, he would not be afraid of being looked down upon after Fu Yan had investigated the matter thoroughly.

By then, Li's power to manage the family will be taken back, and the old lady will be very old, so I will be the only one left at home. I guess the power will still be in my hands.

Her plan was to train Qiu Nu as quickly as possible so that she could help her manage the household in the future.

She just needs to eat, drink and be merry.

Of course, Li didn't know Jiang Wan's idea.

I thought Jiang Wan really gave up the power to me because he was weak and incompetent.

Otherwise, who would be willing to let go of such a good thing?

There is no one in the entire Upper Kyoto who can easily give up the power of running a family.

Jiang Wan's words made Li happy.

As long as this power is in your hands, you can have the final say on other matters.

It just so happened that my younger brother was short of money recently, so he took some money out of the public treasury.

Jiang Wan smiled, "Mother can now take care of it with peace of mind. If you are too busy, you can ask your daughter-in-law to help."

Jiang Wan naturally said this on purpose. Li would probably doubt himself as to why he gave up so easily.

Only by saying these words can she feel at ease. It’s not that I don’t want it, but I really don’t have the ability.

Now, when I say I want to help her, I also want to learn from her. Once I have learned it, I will take away the power from her.

Anyway, I am a invisible person in the Marquis' Mansion, and no one teaches me how to manage the affairs in the mansion, so it is not easy if I don't know how.

Sure enough, when Li heard this, her eyes darkened and she glanced at Jiang Wan's clothes. "Don't worry, I'm still fine and I don't need your help. Now your most important task is to expand our Duke's Mansion."

Jiang Wan smiled faintly, but felt cold in her heart.

In my previous life, I had a near-death experience while giving birth because I was pregnant. Let alone giving birth, even being pregnant was not easy.

Jiang Wan thought that he would have to take precautions in the future.

She had already made up her mind that she had no choice but to take the contraceptive pill, otherwise there was no better way.

In short, I have no intention of remarrying in this life, let alone having children.

When my father comes back, I will ask for permission to divorce Fu Yan.

"Okay, I will remember my mother's teachings."

The old lady obviously wanted to restrain Jiang Wan, her eyes were stern, "If you really remember your mother's teachings, you won't leave the house by yourself. As the wife of the master, you can't always rely on your mother, you still have to learn what you should learn."

Li's face looked a little ugly. The old lady said this to want Jiang Wan to share her power.

"Mother, Wanwan is still young, so let her play for a few more years. There is no need to rush to manage the household. Just take your time."

The old lady has been living with Li for decades, but she still doesn't know what she is thinking.

He just wants to hold all the power by himself.

"How can that be done? If word gets out that our woman has been married for so long but still doesn't know how to do anything, wouldn't that be the biggest joke in the world?"

Jiang Wan: “…” I’m afraid you two are the only ones who care about this matter.

Li was not someone who was willing to bow her head, but this person was her mother-in-law after all, and it was not easy for her to resist her in front of so many people.

He quickly put on a smile and said, "Mother is right. I didn't think it through. I was thinking that Yan'er is now at an age where other families would have both sons and daughters. He doesn't even have a son or daughter. So I'd better let them work hard on having children. The matter of being the head of the family can be put off until later."

What Li said makes sense.

Over the years, the old lady and Mrs. Li have been helping Fu Yan find a good girl, but every time they take the initiative to help him, he looks resistant.

The two tried their best to persuade him, but he refused to listen.

The two men behind wanted to force themselves on him, but they never expected the emperor to give the order.

She is also an unheard-of orphan from the Jiang family.

He is of no use at all and has a weak temper.

She was even worse than those daughters of rich families that they had eliminated before.

I don't know what His Majesty's intention is.

Fu Yan's father was a powerful duke in his time, but he died while protecting the late emperor from an arrow.

Apart from Fu Yan, who was still a child, there were only two women left in the family. Fortunately, Fu Yan was ambitious enough and made the Fuguo Mansion flourish in just a few years.

I originally thought that I could pick a woman who was superior in terms of background, appearance and temperament.

No one expected that His Majesty would grant the marriage directly.

Although they had many complaints in their hearts, they could only smile and respectfully accept the order.

Now that Fu Yan has reached this age, having offspring is indeed a very important matter.

When Jiang Wan first came in, several people thought that Fu Yan didn't like her, but in the past two days, it seemed that he was quite satisfied with this wife personally bestowed by the emperor.

"Indeed, the most important thing for you now is to expand the Fu family." The old lady said to Jiang Wan earnestly.

Jiang Wan nodded: "Grandma is right. I will keep it in mind and try my best to give you a big fat boy."

There was still a shy smile on her face, but she was sneering in her heart: Sorry, I've been intercepted halfway.
