Chapter 2 Rebirth
"Jiang Ruanxi, do you hear what I said? I'm telling you, don't pretend to be stupid here?"

An impatient voice came from my ears.

Looking at the familiar and indifferent face in front of him, Jiang Ruanxi was a little confused.

Wasn't she so angry that she saw Lin Ningkun's mother, Mrs. Zhou?

"He is the orphan of Mr. Hou's best friend, and we cannot ignore death. Anyway, it has been more than five years since you married into our Lin family, and you have not been able to give birth to a child. Now there happens to be a ready-made one who will be adopted into your name, too. For your own good. You will have someone to rely on in the future."

Jiang Ruan Xi came back to his senses after hearing the familiar words.

She was reborn and returned to the fifth year of her marriage to Lin Ningkun.

After the wedding that year, he went out to take office and never came back.

As soon as he came back, he brought five-year-old Lin Xiao back and asked her to promise to put the child in her name in the family tree.

At the beginning, no matter how much Jiang Ruan Xi liked Lin Ningkun, she was not deceived enough to raise a child for others, so she never let go.

She remembered that in her previous life, Mrs. Zhou came to persuade her.

Later, in order to win back Lin Ningkun's heart, she foolishly agreed.

Thinking about it now, Lin Xiao is five years old now.

It means that this child got together when Jiang Xuerou was not a widow.

The thought of these two people hooking up secretly made me feel extremely sick.

She always thought that Lin Ningkun was a pure and true gentleman, but she never thought that he was so dirty secretly that he had an affair with her nephew's wife.

He calmed down his expression, looked at Mrs. Zhou and said, "Mother is right, I just promise her."

Zhou was overjoyed. She didn't expect Jiang Ruan Xi to agree so quickly. She also prepared several excuses but didn't use them.

The goal was achieved, and there was no need to be here anymore. Just as he was about to get up, Jiang Ruanxi rubbed the teacup in his hand and said quietly, "But this matter is a big deal, and I'm afraid it still needs the approval of the clan leader. After all, He is not of our Jiang family’s blood.”

Zhou was stunned, not thinking about this problem, and sat down.

Think about it for a while.

"You don't have to worry about this. As long as you agree, I'll tell the clan leader."

Zhou took a sip of tea, thought of something, put down the teacup, and looked at her seriously.

"Now that the Marquis has returned from taking office, the yard at home is too small. If he comes to have a friend, there is no place to greet him."

Hearing this, Jiang Ruanxi sneered in his heart, but still agreed with his face, "What mother said is that I will ask my servants to clean up a courtyard so that it can be convenient for the Marquis to entertain guests and friends."

"It definitely needs to be cleaned up. But it will take a while to clean up. If the Marquis has friends coming to visit during this time, our Marquis can't be so shabby, right?"

"What does mother mean?" Jiang Ruanxi pretended not to understand.

Zhou revealed his purpose.

"Before we clean up the courtyard, we should build a small courtyard outside. This way there will be no delay."

Jiang Ruanxi picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea to hide the coldness in his eyes.

In her previous life, she had never doubted Zhou's words and foolishly agreed to this request.

I really thought that Dingninghou's mansion was too small to accommodate Lin Ningkun's friends, so I directly bought the courtyard next to Dingninghou's mansion.

But she didn't realize until she died that the so-called courtyard purchase was just a courtyard bought for Jiang Xuerou.

Seeing her silence, Zhou increased his firepower.

"You also know that Kyoto is different from other places. You were born in a merchant's family, and you don't understand many things. If the Marquis maintains good connections, there will be many more opportunities for promotion in the future, and your identity will also As the tide rises, all boats lift." Jiang Ruanxi put down the teacup and sneered inwardly.

This family, while despising themselves as a family of merchants, yet caring about her money with peace of mind, the Lin family is really more disgusting than the maggots in the toilet.

"Mom is right, I didn't think well." Jiang Ruanxi replied, holding back the disgust in his heart.

She thought the same way in her previous life. She always felt inferior because of her background, so she always tried to please Lin Ningkun.

After resurrecting her life, she saw everything clearly.

Lin Ningkun is a mess except for his good looks.

He thinks he is arrogant and pretentious, but in reality he is too ambitious and not down to earth at all.

If it weren't for the fact that in his last life, he relied on the money brought by her dowry to manage his affairs, whether he could keep his position as marquis, his official career would not be so smooth.

His rank as a sixth-grade official was his upper limit, and he had no chance of promotion.

"The way I see it, the courtyard next to ours is pretty good. Why not just buy it directly, so that this wall can be pushed away in the future and directly become part of the Hou Mansion. In this way, the Hou Mansion will be bigger."

In his last life, Lin Ningkun used her dowry to build a courtyard for Jiang Xuerou next door. This must have been his plan.

When she died, there would no longer be that wall of shame between the two courtyards.

This is really a good calculation.

Zhou was shocked when she thought of what Lin Ningkun had arranged. She didn't expect Jiang Ruanxi to take the initiative to say what she was thinking.

But this woman is an idiot. Even though she said it, she couldn't show it. She looked confused and said, "Where to buy it, let the Marquis decide?"

"Mother is right."

Jiang Ruanxi covered the sarcasm in his eyes.

The child also came back to recognize his ancestors and set up the yard next door so that Jiang Xuerou could see the child at all times. Lin Ningkun really thought about Jiang Xuerou in detail.

But since God allowed her to be reborn, she would not let him get his wish like in the previous life.

She would repay them many times the shame they had placed on her in her previous life.

Jiang Ruanxi's hand on his side was clenched tightly.

Zhou's eyes were filled with joy, "What about the money?"

In these years, it was Jiang Ruanxi's money that she had been using, so she had long given the right to be the head of the family to Jiang Ruanxi.

Therefore, when it comes to money matters, it is Jiang Ruan Xi.

Moreover, she is not good at management. Even if she is in charge, the Hou Mansion will not have any extra money.

Jiang Ruanxi's starry eyes flashed and she said with a smile, "Don't worry, mother, about the silver. Just go to the warehouse to get as much silver as you need."

Zhou was overjoyed, but still treated Jiang Ruanxi with kindness and kindness.

"My mother did all this for your own good. You should be more generous sometimes. You didn't grow up in the Yongyi Hou Mansion, and those merchants didn't understand the rules of the noble Hou family.

You are a good boy, but you must remember that you are a great blessing to be able to marry our Marquis. You must cherish it. When the Marquis gets better in the future, you can also enjoy the blessings. "

She still remembered what Zhou said in her last life. She also foolishly listened to Zhou's words, and all she got was humiliation and misery for half her life.

After Zhou left, Hongye, who was waiting on the side, became anxious.

"Madam, how can you agree to the fact that the child is recorded in your name in the family tree? If he is recorded in your name, wouldn't he be the eldest son of the Hou family in the future? What about the future children of the Madam?"
