The eldest lady is reborn, get out of the way!

"What? Are you saying Jiang Zhiyue's marriage is not going to happen?"

Mrs. Qiao looked at her daughter in great confusion, her curiosity feeling like ten thousand ants crawling in her heart.

"Please explain clearly, what do you mean Jiang Zhiyue's marriage is not going to work out?"

Jiang Wanbai was taking off her complicated hairpins and crown in front of the mirror.

Qiao couldn't wait even a moment, and grabbed Jiang Wanbai's hand: "Let's explain to mother what's going on first."

Jiang Wanbai frowned in displeasure. Seeing that Qiao was so anxious, he asked the servants to go down.

Seeing her in this state, Qiao's doubts grew even greater: "Could it be that she has done something shameful?"

When saying the word "scandal", Qiao deliberately lowered her tone.

Jiang Wanbai looked at Qiao in surprise: "Mother, why do you think so?"

"Then don't keep us in suspense." Qiao said anxiously.

Jiang Wanbai was not happy with what Qiao said, and said unhappily, "If she gets into any scandal, wouldn't I, a daughter of the Jiang family, be unaffected?"

Seeing Jiang Wanbai getting angry, Mrs. Qiao quickly coaxed her, "It's mother's fault, tell me quickly."

Jiang Wanbai curled her lips in annoyance and briefly recounted the incident in which everyone caught Duan Hongyu and Lin Yuzhong having a secret meeting at the banquet.

Qiao was stunned and dumbfounded: "Duan... these two are so bold!?"

Jiang Wanbai looked disdainful, "I originally felt that Lin Yuzhong was not right. Now it seems that she has been planning to take advantage of Duan Hongyu for a long time. Her methods are dirty, just like Lin's!"

Jiang Wanbai was still disgusted with Lin Yuzhong's methods. Qiao's mind was turning over and over again, and finally her eyes fell on Jiang Wanbai.

"Wanbai, did your grandmother say anything?" Qiao asked carefully.

Jiang Wanbai shook her head. "Grandmother didn't say anything. But this matter has caused a big stir. Everyone attending the banquet today probably knows about it."

"That doesn't necessarily mean the marriage won't work out." Qiao subconsciously thought that with the status of the Guangchang Marquisate, it would be feasible to take Lin Yuzhong as a concubine.

Jiang Wanbai was speechless. He glanced at Qiao and said coldly, "With how much Uncle loves Sixth Sister, how could he let Duan Hongyu marry her?"

Qiao subconsciously asked, "What if it's someone else?"

"What do you mean?" Jiang Wanbai didn't understand what Qiao meant.

Mrs. Qiao looked at her daughter Yanyan's face and said quietly, "If Jiang Zhiyue is not allowed to marry Duan Hongyu, what about you?"

"Auntie!"

Jiang Wanbai stood up angrily and looked at Qiao with disbelief in his eyes: "What nonsense are you talking about! Why should I want something that she doesn't like? Who do you think I am?"

Jiang Wanbai's fierce dissatisfaction brought Qiao back to her senses. She quickly comforted Jiang Wanbai: "Listen to what mother says, listen to what mother says!"

"I won't listen!" Jiang Wanbai's eyes turned red with anger: "How could you have such a ridiculous idea!"

Mrs. Qiao hurriedly covered Jiang Wanbai's mouth: "Little ancestor! Can you please keep your voice down!"

Jiang Wanbai was so angry that she burst into tears. Qiao shook her head repeatedly and poked Jiang Wanbai's head in dismay: "Don't just think that it's what Jiang Zhiyue doesn't want. That's the Marquis' Mansion! The Marquis' Mansion!"

Jiang Wanbai couldn't listen at all, and felt angry and aggrieved.

It was true that Princess Boyang treated Jiang Zhiyue differently at the banquet just by her looks.

But Jiang Wanbai also amazed everyone with a song at the banquet, and Princess Fu treated her with a kind and friendly attitude, which was treatment that no one else had.

But, but when she got home, her biological mother actually asked her to pick up the man that Jiang Zhiyue didn't want?

A cheap man who is engaged but still entangled with others! Just because he was born in a marquis's mansion!

"What's wrong with the Marquis' Mansion? The Marquis' Mansion is noble, and our Duke's Mansion is not bad either!"

Jiang Wanbai became more and more angry and started to get angry at Qiao: "Even if I were to sell my daughter, I wouldn't do this to you!"

"Snapped"--

Jiang Wanbai was hit so hard that his head turned to the side and he did not move for a long time.

Qiao stared at her hands in a daze, feeling extremely regretful. She wanted to go forward to comfort Jiang Wanbai, but was fiercely rejected by her.

"Do not touch me!"

"Wan Bai!" Mrs. Qiao looked at her distressed and helplessly: "Mother, of course, this is for your own good. Your father is not of high status, and we are the second branch after all. If we can get a marriage in Guangchang Marquis's Mansion, we will already be marrying up!"

Jiang Wanbai looked at Qiao with resentment, feeling sad in her heart. She suddenly felt that she seemed to have never known that her mother actually had such thoughts.

"Climbing up?" Jiang Wanbai showed disdain. "My father's official position is not high, but it is a real job. Even if I am the daughter of the second wife, as long as the family does not split up, it is the Duke of Ying's Mansion. His Guangchang Marquis Mansion is just an empty shell. What's the point of marrying up!"

Qiao was stunned.

Jiang Wanbai added: "You only care about Jiang Zhiyue, but never asked me how I was at the banquet."

"Wan Bai..."

Jiang Wanbai closed her eyes in despair, tears streaming down her cheeks.

She had wanted to share with her mother how Princess Fu praised her excellent zither skills at the banquet today and gave her many good things...

But the burning pain on her face made her not want to mention it again.

"Go out." Jiang Wanbai tried to calm himself down and pointed to the door: "I want to rest."

"Wanbai, listen to me, mother..."

"Get out!" Jiang Wanbai looked at Qiao with red eyes. The hatred in his eyes made Qiao shut his mouth.

Qiao hesitated for a while, whispered "have a good rest", and left.

After Qiao left, Jiang Wanbai couldn't help but burst into tears on the table.

Why, why is this happening...

When everyone hears about Jiang Zhiyue, they only pay attention to Jiang Zhiyue, so what about her?

Who is she?

-

Jiang Zhiyue washed away his fatigue and lay drowsily on the bed, not knowing what was in his mind.

The experience at today's banquet was too exciting. Duan Hongyu and Lin Yuzhong were caught in public, and He Yue'e threatened to commit suicide to get an explanation from the Guangchang Marquisate.

Princess Fu did not want to get involved in this trouble, so she simply sent people to ask the lords of the two mansions to solve the matter.

As for what happened later, they discussed it behind closed doors and no one else had any way of knowing.

Until the banquet was over, the two families had not left. I guess this matter still has some way to go.

But, anyway, there is still some good in this matter.

Duan Hongyu and Lin Yuzhong were caught together. Since Duan Hongyu was engaged, it was his personal morality that was corrupted first, so it was natural for her to cancel the engagement.

It's just that everything happened too smoothly. Jiang Zhiyue connected all these things in his mind and thought about them carefully.

It must be when she left the table that both Lin Yuzhong and Duan Hongyu set their eyes on her.

However, Lin Yuzhong's seat was at the back, so she had to take a detour to get to the lotus pond, and Duan Hongyu was behind her, so the two of them happened to meet each other one after the other.

The person following Lin Yuzhong is Mrs. Xie Xiang’s confidant. Mrs. Xie Xiang...why is she following Lin Yuzhong?

Judging from her attitude in muddying the waters today, it seemed like she was waiting to catch these two people making mistakes.

Why is this again?

Could it be that there is some unknown connection between Prime Minister Xie’s Mansion and the Lin family?
