The reason was naturally the punishment of copying the scriptures. Jiang Ruohua lowered her head and handed the thick copy to the palace maid.

I don't know if this maid benefited from someone, but she was scolded again.

Jiang Ruohua listened to it with one ear and out the other. Now she understood that as long as she didn't take it to heart, no one could say anything to her.

The palace came and said whatever she wanted. Anyway, the marriage had been cancelled. Jiang Ruohua was happy as long as she didn't have anything to do with King Ying.

It didn't matter if the scolding was more unpleasant!

Therefore, although the maid spoke impolitely, Jiang Ruohua always nodded and listened. In the end, she sent the person out with courtesy. Instead, the maid was slightly surprised. She couldn't believe that a girl of this age could have such a heart.

It was rare. Sure enough, the rumors were true. The eldest lady of the Duke's Mansion really changed her temperament and became more graceful than before. It was a pity that she could never be a princess again.

"Bah, our young lady doesn't want her, what a pity!" After the female official left, Hua Chan spat a little, and she got angry just by looking at that. It was a good thing for her young lady to break off the engagement. She didn't know how many times happier she would be away from the kind of stuff like the King of Ying. She really shouldn't get involved!

"We just need to know it ourselves." Jiang Ruohua chuckled, "This is a secret, just talk about it when we are three, don't get too proud at other times."

But she was also happy to break off the engagement. Isn't it better to be happy in reality than to have a marriage that is in name only?

Knowing the future scene, she is now somewhat avoiding getting married.

On the way back, she put aside her thoughts. After breaking off the engagement with the King of Ying, she was afraid that no one would dare to marry her for a while. If that was the case, why bother with these things at this time?

Her current goal is to eliminate the King of Ying who threatens the Jiang family and the third room that harms the Jiang family!

On the other side, Yinqiu sent Yunjin over, and added some other things according to Jiang Ruohua's instructions to show the close relationship between the sisters.

"Miss Wu, please don't be polite to our young lady. My young lady said that since we are sisters, there is no distinction between each other. It is common for us to wear each other's clothes and jewelry. Miss Wu, do you like this style? I can go back and report to you."

Looking at the Yunjin, which was worth every inch of gold, Jiang Ruoqi nodded: "I like it, I like it very much."

Yinqiu smiled and knelt down and said: "Miss, you will definitely be happy to know it. Then I will not bother you anymore. I will leave first."

Everyone likes good things, especially children of eleven or twelve years old. How can they resist this temptation?

"Big sister really has all kinds of good things." Jiang Ruoqi looked at Yunjin, and her eyes were hot, as if she was also looking at something through Yunjin.

She hesitated for a moment, and first took Yunjin to Aunt Yuan.

After explaining the original, Aunt Yuan was stunned for a long time before she said: "You can take what the eldest lady gives you, but Aunt Yuan wants to tell you one thing, don't think about what she doesn't give you." Born in a high-class courtyard, there is such a gap. Aunt Yuan looked at the envy in Jiang Ruoqi's eyes and felt sad: "Aunt Yuan's status is low, and she can only be a concubine. Fifth Miss, you must remember that if it doesn't belong to you, don't think too much. In this world, the most feared thing is to have a life to earn but not a life to spend. You are a concubine's daughter, and some things are not yours, so don't think about it." "I know." Jiang Ruoqi nodded, "I remember everything Aunt Yuan said, I just..." I was really envious, gritting my teeth with envy, and even very jealous. But she understood what Aunt Yuan said. She was a concubine's daughter, and there were some things she was born without, whether it was Yunjin, those gorgeous hairpins, or her future, all if Jiang Ruohua was happy and willing to get closer to her, she could get more. "I will be good to my eldest sister, be more supportive of her, and go to her more often." Jiang Ruoqi knew that if she wanted to live a better life than before, she had to please the right person. For her own sake, she had to be good to Jiang Ruohua, "What about the second sister?"

Jiang Ruohua is a legitimate daughter, and so is Jiang Ruoting. Aunt Yuan thought about it and shook her head: "Just do as usual, anyway, you are still young."

The behavior of a child would not attract the attention of the third wife, but Aunt Yuan thought about it and felt that maybe she was wrong. The eldest daughter kept the third wife in the dark, but she was not stupid. In the past, the eldest daughter never showed off her wealth in front of the other sisters, because she was afraid that the third sister would feel unbalanced. Now she deliberately gave Yunjin to her daughter.

It may be a flattery, but there is also a price.

But in the face of interests, the price is not important. Aunt Yuan knows that she is getting older day by day, and the pampering will probably end one day. If she gives birth to a son, the son is promising, and the daughter marries well, she can have some security in the second half of her life.

The Third Lady was hypocritical and would not tolerate a concubine's son. How to ensure the comfort of herself and her child after giving birth was a problem. Moreover, it was not the Third House's turn to inherit the Duke's Mansion for the time being. Jiang Ruohua's purpose of giving Yunjin was very clear.

She knew that people of low status in the rich and powerful families always had to rely on charity. It was better to wait for the Third Lady to give some hypocrisy or to make a deal with the eldest lady. Obviously, the latter was better.

She didn't ask for anything else, just to get a good marriage for her daughter and a way out for her son in her belly. As long as it was better than making a living under the Third Lady and as long as the child had a chance to succeed in the future, she didn't dare to think about the family property, which didn't belong to her child.

"Miss, Aunt Yuan sent someone to say that she wanted to eat something sour."

"Okay." Jiang Ruohua nodded, "Then ask the kitchen to make some sour preserved fruits. Remember to let the servants around Aunt Yuan remind you not to use too much to hurt your stomach."

After the people left, Hua Chan walked to Jiang Ruohua with a smile and said, "Congratulations, Miss."

"You are smart." She smiled knowingly, and even the tea seemed to taste a little sweet, "But, it is indeed worth being happy."

Aunt Yuan was no longer timid and openly wanted to show off that she was carrying a boy, so she understood the purpose of her gift of Yun Brocade.

The other party did not disappoint her, and she naturally would not disappoint the other party either. Jiang Ruohua's eyes were cold. Although it was just an appetizer, she hoped that the third lady would accept it!

At night, there was some movement in the tiles on the room, and a note was thrown in through the opened gap. Jiang Ruohua opened his eyes, sat up on the bed, and picked up the note from the ground. It was sent by Grandpa Gao. News coming.

The words 'everything is in order' were written clearly and forcefully on the paper.

She pursed her lips, crumpled the note and threw it into the incense burner, destroying the traces before falling asleep.

"Isn't mother still up so late?"

The candlelight flickered, and incense was burning in the third lady's room, mixed with the refreshing taste of mint. It is best to light it when you are refreshing, but sometimes it is too strong and it will inevitably feel pungent.

Jiang Ruoting covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief and walked in. Looking at her mother who was still working hard, she walked gently to the table and sat down.
