Jiang Wan didnt speak for a long time. She occasionally raised her eyes to look at Ji Yan, who was lowering his head, his face red with embarrassment. His small feet were desperately rubbing against each other on the ground, intersecting and overlapping. A faint smile appeared in Jiang Wans eyes as she spoke softly to Ji Yan: "Ji Yan, without a needle, thread or fabric, how can you learn embroidery? If someone in my family finds out that youre teaching me embroidery, it will implicate your family members. I didnt hear what you just said. You should go back to your room first and come over again at dinner time."

  Ji Yan heard Jiang Wanrus words, looked up at her and wanted to speak but felt speechless. Seeing Jiang Wanru lowering her head and sitting there, she thought for a moment and still moved her feet lightly to walk over and open the door to leave. The moment the door opened, the cold wind outside rushed into the room. Jiang Wanru was blown by the wind, and the faint smile in her eyes instantly disappeared.

  The sound of the wind outside occasionally came into the room. Jiang Wanru got up and walked a few steps, then jumped up several times to warm herself up. In her courtyard, apart from Jiyan next door, there was no third person. The two maids she used to have were now busy with their own affairs in the Jiang family. They did not automatically become her housekeeper mothers like the close maids by Jiang Wanrus side after she turned seven.

  Jiang Wanting was still full of illusions about many things before she turned six. That summer, when she was six years old, the woman in charge of her stepmothers household came to her courtyard and said to Shi Tou, who was weeding in the yard, "The lady says that there are not enough people to take care of the flowers and trees. You have to go find the person in charge of the garden now and listen to his arrangements." After she finished speaking, she glanced at Jiang Wanting, who was standing woodenly in the courtyard, without even a word of greeting.

  Shitou Niang straightened up upon hearing this, glancing at Jiang Wanyu in the courtyard. She took a few steps closer to the housekeeper and said with a smile in a low voice: "Big Niu Auntie, there are only me and Mugens family here taking care of Third Miss. Usually, its more relaxing for us to do chores together. If I leave now, Mugens family will have to take on all the work alone. I just want to ask, how many days will I be gone?"

  The woman listened to her words, stretched out her hand and pushed her, letting out a cold laugh: "Youre from the Shi family, stay away from me. Before you married into that family, among our group of people, you were considered quite clever. Now how come youre becoming more and more stupid like your husband? Ill tell you the truth. This easy job was obtained because I mentioned it to Madam on account of my previous good relationship with you, helping you get this work. From now on, do a good job and dont make me lose face along with you."

  The woman looked at Shi Tou Niang with an unpleasant expression, seeing her pitiful appearance. In a fit of anger, she stretched out her hand and pointed at Shi Tou Niang, saying in a low voice: "You wont be staying in the third misss courtyard for long, getting foolish together with her. Yu Niang had met the second misss aunt two days ago, and they chatted. The second miss told the madam that Yu Niang boasted about her own daughter being capable."

  Shitou Niang was taken aback, looking at the woman and saying: "Yu Niang has not come to see Third Miss for two years." The woman didnt have the heart to listen to Shitou Niangs words, urging her to say: "Hurry up and pack your things, go find Lin Guan Shi early. There is also a companion woman in Fourth Misss courtyard who needs to go over, you need to hurry up and get ready before she does, Ill accompany you."

  Shitou Niangqin took another look at Jiang Wanyu, who was hanging her head low, and saw Mugen Niangqin nodding to her. She gritted her teeth and rushed into the room, then came out empty-handed a moment later, saying to the waiting woman: "Dàniú Sǎozi, lets go! Ill come back for my clothes later." Only after they left did Jiang Wanyu lift her head to gaze at Shitou Niangqins retreating figure.

  Look at your own young lady, sighing and saying: "Miss, Ill teach you to recognize the difference between wild rice grass and wild wheat grass." Jiang Wanru followed Mugens mother to the corner of the courtyard, listening to her carefully explaining the differences between the two. Seeing that Jiang Wanru quickly distinguished between the two, she sighed and said: "Miss, you are different from other young ladies in the Jiang family, and you should learn some things earlier."

  Jiang Wanruo understood in the first year after she woke up that her biological mother was a white lotus with a glass heart. As the young lady of a prestigious family, she coincidentally met a man from another prominent family who had been married for several years. Originally, a slightly rational woman who considered her familys well-being would not have any further developments. However, her biological mother was just like the typical third-party homewrecker in stories she heard in her past life - falling deeply in love with a man who already had a family and children at first sight, second sight, and third sight.

  And her biological father Jiang Anhe, facing such a deeply emotional woman, thinking of her family background, was momentarily blinded by pride and did not stop her, but instead tempted her with indifference. For the time being, the man had righteousness, and the woman had feelings. In his heart, he still had his own wife and clever and lovely children, and after thinking about it, he could only promise the woman a humble position as a concubine, but promised countless unchanging vows. The two agreed on this matter and returned to their respective families to discuss with their relatives.

  The Yu family was shocked by the news, and everyones face changed. They couldnt accept that their beloved daughter would be delighted to have a husband from a humble background, and for his sake, she wouldnt become the wife of a noble family, but instead go to be someone elses concubine. The family members used all their efforts to oppose this matter. But Yu Xi thought it was too good to be true, she resisted her familys arranged marriage in every way, and insisted on entering the Jiang family no matter what.

  Dreams are very beautiful, but reality is quite disappointing. Jiang Anhes book fragrance door first wife, very wise to share worries with her husband: "Husband, as long as Luner, Yuer, Yier and the three of them keep their positions as eldest son and daughter, I am willing to give up my position as first wife to Miss Yu." Jiang Anhe was deeply moved by his first wifes words and even more determined that the position of first wife would never be changed.

  Madam Jiang learned the news and, under her daughter-in-laws advice, coldly told her son: "I already have a virtuous daughter-in-law, I dont want to add flowers to brocade. This matter will be decided by Old Madam." Madam Jiang had been the daughter-in-law of Old Madam Jiang for many years and deeply understood this mother-in-law of hers. Old Madam Jiang was the legitimate daughter of an ancient noble family, with a strong sense of propriety in her bones.

  Mrs. Jiang was furious when she heard the news about her usually well-behaved grandson. She thought it was Yus familys unruly daughter who had seduced her own steady grandson and made him lose his composure. She secretly resented that woman who didnt have the dignity of a noble lady, but instead had the frivolity of a commoner.

  She thought that her own grandson was a thousand times better, but the fox spirit was too sinister and had bewitched her own legitimate grandson, actually promising him the position of first wife. She angrily said This kind of woman can only be a noble concubine in our Jiang family at most. Our Jiang family has never had a first wife for generations. If she wants to be the first wife, it will have to wait until after Im dead. As soon as these words were spoken, Jiang An couldnt dare say another word and could only turn his head to discuss with Yu Xi again.

  Generally, when a womans wishes are far from reality, she will cut off her emotions. But Yu Xi Xi is not an ordinary woman, she deeply believes that her beauty is like a flower, and her feelings are in harmony with Jiang An He. Compared to Jiang An Hes wife, she is only slightly late, and she firmly believes that in Jiang An Hes heart, she is more beautiful and better than any other woman.

  Under the circumstances of breaking off relations with the Yu family, she entered the Jiang family through a side door. A young lady from a prestigious family, not being someones legitimate wife, but willing to enter the Jiang family as a noble concubine, was an earth-shattering event that all the prestigious families of that year dared not believe. People who have experienced worldly affairs sighed at Jiang Anhes extraordinary means on women and lamented Yu Xis ignorance.
