Jiang Wenqi was still young, and the sudden encounter with Jiang Wanyus affair had a great impact on him. He always thought that among the Jiang family members, Jiang Wanyu was the closest to him, but he didnt expect that in the end, he was also one of those who were deceived. Although he had been treated coldly over the years, his stepmother still took care of him on the surface. Moreover, his elder brother Jiang Wenyou was a careless person by nature, and when he occasionally saw his younger brothers cleverness, he initially felt quite jealous, but later comforted himself that it was just his own younger brother, so it wasnt shameful or embarrassing.

  After leaving the bookstore, Jiang Wenyu glanced at his obviously dispirited younger brother and couldnt help but ask quietly while turning his back on the servant, "Qidi, did Mothers favorite maid, Xi Yatou, secretly pinch you again when I wasnt looking? Didnt I tell you to walk beside me?"

  But he was more mature than his peers, and he knew that the incident of running into San Jie at the bookstore couldnt be told to anyone else in the Jiang family. He glanced at Jiang Wenyu, thought for a moment, and said: "Brother, I forgot to do the homework that the teacher assigned me yesterday. Just now I suddenly remembered it, and Im worried that the teacher will scold me when he finds out."

  Jiang Wenyu heard this and burst out laughing, clapping her hands together. "Qī dì, youve read books until youre silly! You can just make it up when you get home, no need to tell the teacher in such detail. Whats there to worry about? The teacher wont know if you wrote it today or not!" Ha ha ha... Ill go back and tell Mother and sister, theyll definitely laugh at you too." Jiang Wenyu hung her head low, letting Jiang Wenyu laugh heartily.

  Jiang Wanru hurried back after bumping into Jiang Wenqi at the bookstore, and she didnt have the heart to linger outside. She entered through the rear door that the servants of the Jiang family used, dodging people along the way as she made her way to her own courtyard. Before she even reached the entrance, she saw Mugen hiding in an inconspicuous corner outside the courtyard, looking outwards. When he saw her, his face lit up with surprise and delight.

  Mugen glanced at the clothes on Jiang Wanyus body, pulled her towards the courtyard and said: "You quickly change out of these clothes, I have something important to tell you." Jiang Wanyu herself didnt think that at her age, there would be anything earth-shattering. However, she still followed Mugens meaning, quickly entering the courtyard, directly rushing into the room, quickly taking off the old clothes Mugen had given her and changing into her own outer garments.

  She came out of the room and saw Mugen closing the gate. He was now in the yard, rubbing his hands together, rapidly circling around the middle area, running wildly like a madman. She glanced at Mugen who was in a frenzy, picked up the broom that had been placed to one side, and gently swept the leaves that the wind had blown into the yard to one side.

  Mu Gen calmed down from his excitement and looked at the broom in Jiang Wanrus hand, which had already reached his feet. He quickly grabbed it and said to Jiang Wanru, who was sweating: "Sister, youve finally made a name for yourself." Jiang Wanru heard this and suddenly burst out laughing, saying: "Brother, I came out of Madam Yus belly seven and a half years ago. Youre saying this now, seven and a half years too late."

  Mugun glanced at Jiang Wanru, who was clearly joking with herself, and looked at her somewhat unhappily: "Sister, if it werent for your good news, why would I come to your courtyard? Now that were older, men and women are different, I cant just pop in like before. Even though youre my own sister, for your sake, I shouldnt come to your courtyard without a third person present."

  Jiang Wanru was speechless towards Mugen, this kid had somehow heard something, and since Jiang Wanru was the only one in the yard, he hadnt entered her yard as freely as before. However, every few days, he would secretly come to help her prepare water and firewood, avoiding everyones eyes. When he needed to find Jiang Wanru, he would often stand at the gate of the yard, calling out to her. The two would then move to a secluded corner, chatting and exchanging information about their plans.

  Jiang Wanmu initially thought it was just Mugen being playful and went along with him. However, as this happened every time, she couldnt help but say to Mugen: "Brother, why dont we go inside the courtyard to talk? Speaking out here in public will only harm your reputation." Jiang Wanmu now calls Mugen "brother" without any pressure in her heart. Unlike before when she thought of having a little follower and felt embarrassed every time she called him.

  These years, Moken is inferior to her in reading and writing, but far surpasses her in other aspects. Mokens temperament is stronger than hers, and once she decides on something, she will do it well no matter what. Moreover, these years, Moken has obviously been taking care of her as an elder brother, thinking more thoroughly about things than her, making Jiang Wanting feel that she herself was just a useless memory from the previous life.

  Mugwort heard Jiang Wanrus words at the time, and looked at her with a white eye, saying: "Sister, there is only one person in your yard now, you are not young anymore, I come and go inside, after passing on, your reputation will not be too good, and it will be difficult to get married later." These words made Jiang Wanru stare wide-eyed at the time, thinking that she was only seven years old, and the distance from getting married should still be very far away.

  Jiang Wanru didnt expect that Mugen, who was only one month older than her, would think about her situation after marriage. At the time, she thought to herself that given how the Jiang family treated her, her marriage might not be too smooth. Mugen glanced at Jiang Wanru and said with a sigh: "Younger sister, no matter what, you are the third miss of the Jiang family. The Jiang family will think carefully about your marriage for the sake of the younger misses. In the future, when my parents are not around, I wont enter your courtyard again. If theres anything to say, we can talk outside."

  Jiang Wanting was thinking that the person who had just entered their courtyard, now standing in the middle of it, was smiling and saying: "Little sister, youre going to get married." Jiang Wanting heard these words from Mu Gen, thought about her own height being only as tall as a broom, leaned forward slightly, took the broom from Mu Gens hand and stood up straight, saying: "Brother, I will definitely get married in the future, the Jiang family wont let me stay here until Im old. However, now that Im so young, for the sake of the Jiang familys reputation, they also wont let me get married."

  Mugwort looked at Jiang Wanting with an apologetic expression and said, "Its Brother who spoke hastily, your marriage has already been arranged, its Lian Familys Mo Shao. For now, its just a verbal agreement, after the marriages of Big Miss and Second Miss are settled, then they will set a date for your marriage." Jiang Wantings mouth was agape as she asked in a daze, "Ah, its been decided so quickly? And who is this Lian Mo?"

  Muguns face turned red as he looked at Jiang Wanting and said, "Sister, brother will go and ask around for you later. However, my mother asked me to come over and talk to you first, she said that Lian Shao is not bad." After Mugun hurriedly left, Jiang Wanting was left standing in the courtyard, her hands tightly grasping the broom, thinking about her own marriage, and finally resigned herself to her fate. She realized that under the circumstances of being a member of the Jiang family, no matter whether the person was good or bad, she had no choice but to accept, and it was impossible for her to use her small hand to push against the big arm.
