Chapter 20 020: Gui Ning (1)

The next day.

As soon as Jiang Xi finished her morning practice, she saw that all the maids in Xiangfu were already preparing for today's Guining Banquet.

Each of them had joyful expressions on their faces, as if they had forgotten who the original owner of this place was, and they all seemed to believe that Mrs. Zhu would become the mistress of this Xiangfu.

Jiang Xi hadn't recovered before she heard Jing Zhe's voice, "Girl, these people really don't know what to do. It's clear that Mrs. Madam is the mistress of Xiangfu." There was a bit of complaint in her words, like blame and like It's guilt.

"Why are you so excited." Jiang Xi patted Jing Zhe's shoulder, "They are not the children of Xiangfu's family, so how can they remember their mother's kindness?"

"Girls are kind-hearted!" Jing Zhe stared at those people angrily, "Those people are also unfamiliar white-eyed wolves."

"Good boy." Jiang Xi raised her hand and patted Jing Zhe's head, "Mother will always be the prime minister's wife, even though she has passed away, no one should try to get past her."

Leaving aside the fact that Mrs. Zhu is not favored by Jiang Yu, even if Mrs. Zhu is favored by Jiang Yu, it is impossible for her to become a regular wife.

If Mrs. Zhu were to be a concubine forever, she would always be inferior to others just like Jiang Yin.

When Jiang Xi walked to the front hall with Jing Zhe, she saw Mrs. Zhu and the maid beside her telling others to prepare things well, with a look of joy that had never been seen on her face before.

"Auntie is busy early in the morning."

Jiang Xi clearly noticed that Zhu's face darkened when he heard her voice, especially those eyes seemed to be exuding resentment.

"What's the point of the third girl, today is Yin'er's return banquet, so naturally we need to prepare earlier." With a smile on her face, Mrs. Zhu had completely lost the expressions just now.

"The fourth younger sister is my aunt's own daughter, so my aunt naturally needs to be more careful." Jiang Xi looked at Zhu's face with a smile that never reached his eyes.

The two of them were in vain for a while before Jiang Xi left from the front hall with Jing Zhe.

In her previous life, when she married Gu Zhanheng, she had an unhappiness with Jiang Yu during the Guining Banquet, so she was always unhappy at the Guining Banquet. It was also because of her unhappiness that Jiang Yin took advantage of her loopholes and gave her a second chance. The second chance to make a move.

Of course, it can't be ruled out that Jiang Yin wants to plot against her in the same way. After all, Jiang Yin's goal from the beginning was to want both of them to marry Gu Zhanheng at the same time, so that he could tease her.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xi touched her chin and looked at Jing Zhe beside her, "Jing Zhe, I have something to tell you to do later." She whispered something in Jing Zhe's ear.

The four maids around her were all maids that her mother personally selected for her when she was alive. Everyone is good at something, for example, Gu Yu is good at the Qimen Dunjia technique; Jingzhe is proficient in martial arts, Bailu and Shuangjiang have their own strengths.

"Don't worry, girl, I promise to complete the task smoothly." Jing Zhe smiled at her.

After Jiang Xi and Jing Zhe separated, they walked in the direction of Jianjiaju. On the way, they met Zhang Shi, Zhao Shi, Jiang Xing, and Jiang Wan who were led by the housekeeper to the warehouse to get new clothes.

After Jiang Xi nodded to them, she walked slowly towards Jian Jiaju.

"Girl, you're back." Gu Yu took a step forward and said concernedly, "Why didn't Jingzhe stay by your side?"

"I asked Jing Zhe to help me with some things." Jiang Xi looked at Gu Yu and smiled, curling his lips, "Today is the fourth sister's homecoming banquet, I promised my father that I will not cause trouble."

"Miss clearly knows that slaves don't mean that." Gu Yu said with a bit of helplessness on her face, "But I really didn't expect Fourth Miss to like Third Highness. I thought she didn't have a sweetheart before."

Whether Jiang Yin likes Gu Zhanheng really remains to be discussed, after all, Jiang Yin's goal from the beginning was her.

Three months after her mother died, she was picked up by her grandfather who came back from the border to live in the border, and she came back from the border just before the Jiji ceremony.

Logically speaking, she and Jiang Yin should have nothing to do with each other, and there is no resentment, but they are both Jiang Yu's daughters.

Jiang Yu is obviously more inclined to be born with his beloved wife, not to mention that according to Jiang Yu's previous statement, whether Jiang Xu and Jiang Yin are Jiang Yu's children remains to be investigated.

"Nurse, let me ask you a question." Looking at the nurse who was embroidering, Jiang Xi sat down beside him.

"What do you want to ask this old slave?" The nurse didn't stop what she was doing, but spoke while embroidering.

"I want to know why my mother kept the Zhu family back then? The second brother and the fourth sister..." Jiang Yin didn't say the rest, because she believed that the nanny would understand her words.

"Back then, Mrs. Zhu climbed into the master's bed when Mrs. Xian was pregnant. Later, when Mrs. Xian was pregnant with you, she also used the same method. As for whether the second son and fourth girl are the master's children, this old slave is not sure. The nanny looked at Jiang Xi and shook her head, "If it wasn't the master's children, whose children would they be?"

"The reason why Mrs. Xian kept Mrs. Zhu was mainly because of the child, because she said the child was innocent." The nanny's eyes were red when she said this, "It's a pity that Mrs. Zhu is an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf who killed him." Ma'am."

How her mother died, and whether it was related to the Zhu family, everything remains to be investigated, after all, it has happened many years ago.

Jiang Xi looked at the nanny and nodded, "Although I can't take care of my mother until the end of my life, I can do so. From now on, the nanny's family will also be my family."

The nanny smiled and curled her lips, "Okay, it would be great if Mrs. Xian could hear what you said."

Jiang Xi chatted with the nanny for a while, and got a lot of relevant things from her mouth. In the few years after his mother died, his father had been looking for her substitute, and finally he had nothing to do with Zhang and Zhao. After taking it back to the mansion, he has never been to the Qin Lou Chu Pavilion since then.

Even after Jiang Xing and Jiang Wan were born, they never went to Zhang Zhao's courtyard again.

Jiang Xi knew what Jiang Yu was thinking. He felt sorry for his mother after having Zhang and Zhao, so he never went to their yard again.

It can only be said that her father is a person who has been in love for a long time, and he still remembers how they looked when they first met.

For a period of time after that, Jiang Xi had been reading in the study, and Jiang Yao was sitting next to him and watching "San Zi Jing".

And in this room, Mrs. Zhu looked left and right and finally saw Jiang Yin at the door.

Jiang Yin returned to Ning today, with only Mu Dan by her side. She was wearing a very plain dress and looked a little tired.

Zhu led the crowd to salute Jiang Yin, and they stood up when Jiang Yin said "Excuse me".

Except for Zhu Shi, no one else came to see her, as if she was not a side concubine, but an ordinary person.

"Mother, where are Jiang Xi and the others?" Jiang Yin asked in a low voice, "Why didn't they come together?"

"Whatever they do, they naturally don't wish you well." Zhu looked at Jiang Yin's worried face when she mentioned Jiang Xi, as if she didn't want to mention her name.

Zhu knew from the very beginning that Jiang Xi didn't like her. She thought that as long as Jiang Xi fell in love with Gu Zhanheng, she would be able to become the mistress of the Xiangfu, but she didn't know that something went wrong halfway.

Jiang Xi did not marry Gu Zhanheng, but her daughter could only marry Gu Zhanheng as a side concubine.

"Mother, what are you thinking?" Jiang Yin smiled, "Your Highness treats me well." She raised her hand to caress Zhu's cheek as she spoke, "As long as no other women enter the mansion for the time being , I am the hostess there."

Zhu Shi didn't understand what Jiang Yin said, but when she thought of her daughter as a side concubine, she felt extremely sad, because she was already a concubine, and her daughter could only become the main wife.

Zhu Shi was about to speak to Jiang Yin when she heard her voice, "Mother, I have something to say to you."
