Chapter 33 Surprisingly so... Shameless

  Seeing Xiao Nanye's expression turned cold, Xiao Junhao subconsciously changed his address.

  When Xiao Nanye heard this, instead of denying it, he nodded, "It's good that you know."

  Seeing that he really admitted, Xiao Junhao's eyes showed a bit of surprise, but more of it was jealousy, "Uncle Huang, I met Miss Jiang first, I don't know why you think she will..."

   "Just rely on this king's face."

   Before Xiao Junhao finished speaking, Xiao Nanye interrupted him directly.

  Just as soon as these words came out, Xiao Junhao who was standing opposite was full of astonishment, and Han Feng who was beside him was also stunned.

  It was the first time he knew that his master was so...shameless.

  Xiao Junhao wanted to refute, but seeing Xiao Nanye's face, he had to admit that in the capital city, in terms of appearance, he was the king.

   "Remember what this king said, otherwise, don't blame this king for not thinking about his uncle and nephew."

  Throwing down these words, Xiao Nanye swaggered away, Han Feng glanced at Xiao Junhao sympathetically, and hurriedly followed.

  Looking at his leaving back, Xiao Junhao's eyes were full of gloom.

At this time, Pei Wucai walked up to him, "My lord, Jiang Hong will return to Beijing in a few days. If you can't get Miss Jiang to take care of you before then, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get Jiang Hong to stand by you." .”

   "Pei Wu, you said that if Jiang Peihuan becomes the king's man, the Jiang family will only be on the same boat as me."

   "My lord, do you want to?"

  Hearing Xiao Junhao's words, Pei Wu was secretly startled, but the speaker didn't say anything, just left along the road down the mountain.

  Jiang Peihuan didn't know anything about what happened after he left.

  After taking Jiang Sijin and Jiang Songbai into the temple, she was full of piety.

  Returning from rebirth, she began to be in awe of ghosts and gods, and she also believed in the free decree in the dark.

   "Grandmother, third aunt."

   Walking to the old lady and Liu Xiu, Jiang Peihuan stepped forward to salute.

   "Here we come, go in with grandma to offer incense."

"yes."

   A group of people stepped forward slowly, and finally, under the guidance of the abbot, they knelt down in front of the Bodhisattva.

  Everyone closed their eyes, thinking about what they wanted in their hearts.

  Jiang Peihuan smelled the scent of incense in the air, and felt a little peaceful in her heart.

   In her new life, she only wants to protect the Jiang family, and she has nothing else to ask for.

   Thinking about what was in his heart, Jiang Peihuan opened his eyes and worshiped devoutly.

   "Sister, what did you ask the Bodhisattva for?"

  Jiang Peihuan just handed the incense in her hand to Yue'er, Jiang Sijin smiled and ran to her side, Jiang Songbai who was on the side heard this, and smiled angrily, "It won't work if you say your wish."

  Listening to the words of his younger siblings, Jiang Peihuan smiled and touched Jiang Sijin's hair, "Eldest sister, I beg Bodhisattva to bless you and Songbai to grow up safely, and everyone in the Jiang family will live in good health."

   "Miss, the old lady and the third lady said let's go back home."

  At this time, Yue'er walked up to Jiang Peihuan's side, her tone a bit hasty.

   "What happened?"

   "Huainan Prince's Mansion came to hire, and the second lady sent someone to tell, and the old lady said to leave early."

"Oh, I see."

  Usually, the old lady would go back after eating a vegetarian meal. Now, because of the appointment of the Huainan Palace, she brought everyone from the Jiang family back home ahead of schedule.

  When the carriage arrived at the gate of the General's Mansion, Jiang Peihuan heard Zhou Rongfang's voice, "Mother, you are finally back."

  Just listening to the voice, Jiang Peihuan knew that her second aunt was in a very good mood.

   After getting off the carriage, Jiang Peihuan knew why.

  At the gate of the mansion, the people who came and went were unaware that everyone was holding gifts in their hands. When they arrived at the Jutang, the courtyard was already covered with gifts.

   "Huainan Palace, this time is full of sincerity."

  The Liu family is the richest businessman in the Qi country. Liu Xiu is used to seeing good things, but at this moment she has to say something big.

   But when Jiang Peihuan saw these betrothal gifts, there was a bit of doubt in her eyes.

  In the previous life, the dowry gift from the Huainan Palace was nothing special, but in this life it was a heavy gift.

  But Jiang Peihuan didn't believe that this was a sign that the Huainan Palace liked Jiang Ruyun.

  But in the eyes of Zhou Rongfang and Jiang Ruyun, these were full of sincerity, especially Jiang Ruyun, when he saw these betrothal gifts, his eyes were full of smiles, and he even forgot the pain on his body.

   "Don't stand still, if you have something to say, go in and say it."

  The old lady glanced at the betrothal gifts all over the yard indifferently, and said in a cold voice.

  Liu Xiu and Madam Xu stepped forward to support the old lady's hand, Jiang Peihuan, Jiang Sijin and others followed.

   "Mother, this is a dowry gift from the Huainan Palace, please take a look."

   As soon as the old lady sat down, Zhou Rongfang sent the gift list to the old lady, but the old lady didn't reach out to take it, but said softly, "Since you have already seen it, you don't need to show it to me."

   "Sister Yun is your daughter, and you also agreed to this marriage. I won't say anything more about it."

   "It's just that the marriage was arranged in a hurry. As the mother of Sister Yun, you should work harder for her. I will leave the wedding preparations to you."

   After finishing speaking, the old lady looked at Jiang Peihuan, "Huan'er, you have been walking all day today, go back and rest."

   "Yes, Grandma."

  Jiang Peihuan bowed to the old lady, and left with Jiang Sijin.

   "Sister, what do you mean by Huainan Palace?"

  After leaving Jutang, Jiang Sijin couldn't help pulling Jiang Peihuan's sleeve. Hearing her words, Jiang Peihuan smiled, "What do you think?"

"I do not understand."

   "It stands to reason that the Huainan Palace should be very dissatisfied with the second sister at the moment, but they sent such a generous dowry, is it because of the father?"

   "It's not all because of my father."

   "What is that for?"

  Hearing Jiang Peihuan's words, Jiang Sijin's eyes were full of curiosity, but the speaker didn't continue to speak, but nodded her head, "Think for yourself."

   Saying that, Jiang Peihuan took Ye Xiao and Yue'er directly to her plum garden.

  That night, when Jiang Peihuan was about to go to bed, there was a knock on the door.

  Afterwards, Yue'er walked into Jiang Peihuan's room, "Miss, the second wife and the third wife have quarreled, and Master Songbai asked me to invite you."

"Um."

  Hearing Yue'er's words, Jiang Peihuan nodded, as if she had guessed it a long time ago.

  Yue'er helped Jiang Peihuan get dressed and said, "Miss, why aren't you surprised at all?"

   "Nothing surprising."

  Left and right are just for dowry.

  The marriage of a daughter in an aristocratic family is always prepared according to the man's dowry. The Huainan Palace's dowry is so generous this time, Zhou Rongfang must prepare an equivalent dowry.

   It's just that her second uncle is just a fifth-rank guard army leader, and where can her second aunt conjure up a dowry.

   "Third brother and sister, do you mean that you don't want to give my family Yun'er a dowry?"
