Chapter 22: Calculations (1)

  Jiang Wanmu knew that Jiang Wanyi was the fairy in Jiyuans heart. She smiled and didnt respond to Jiyuans words, nor did she try to confirm them. It wasnt a fantasy after all. She let Jiyuan entangle herself in her own thoughts. Jiang Wanyi would come to visit her, and Jiang Wanmu thought it was a very strange thing, enough to be considered one of the major events of the Jiang family in recent years. But when the legitimate mother heard about this, what should she think in her heart? Jiang Wanmu thought about this and felt amused, secretly laughing to herself.

  No effort is made to offer courtesy, not deceitful or thieving. Jiang Wan wouldnt come to see someone so inexplicably, what on her own body has attracted her attention? Jiang Wan thought back through her recent words and actions, still the same as before, she was the invisible person of the Jiang family. She couldnt think of anything that would make the carefree and well-off young mistress of the Jiang family remember her.

  She thought back to what Jiyuan had said those days, "The young lady received a gift from Fourth Master Lian." "It was brought by Xiaoyu, the little maid beside the young lady." Jiyuans words were unintentional, and she also felt indifferent when listening. As for how noble families treated their illegitimate children, it was their own family affair. Opening the Jiang family door, they still wanted to maintain a good reputation of being a happy family, even if it meant covering up the truth, they had to do it seamlessly.

  Jiang Wanru thought of this, her heart involuntarily sank a little. She turned to think again and felt that she was overthinking. Even someone as talented as Lian Zimo would be quite eye-catching in the capital. If Jiang Wanyi and the Jiang family had been thinking of him before, how could this marriage possibly be for herself? With Jiang Wanyis character and family background, she was more than enough to match Lian Zimo. Jiang Wanru couldnt help but laugh at herself, hearing a slight rumor and thinking that a big storm was about to arrive.

  Jiang Wans face was smiling, but her eyes were gloomy and hard to understand. The little maids by her side automatically followed far behind. Only her loyal personal maid, Yue Xiu and Yue Ying, accompanied her. Yue Xiu and Yue Ying had grown up with Jiang Wan and understood their mistresss every move. But this time, they couldnt figure out why she was heading towards Third Misss courtyard after dinner, looking determined to see her no matter what.

  The young lady met the third young lady, and the two of them didnt say much in the room. But as soon as they left the courtyard gate, the young ladys mood was obviously unhappy, and the smile on her face was forced to hang up, used to deal with the people she met on the road. Yuexiu and Yueying exchanged a look, Yuexiu smiled and took a step forward, close to Jiang Wan-yi, and asked tentatively: "Miss, are you not pleased with Miss Sans behavior?"

  Jiang Wan-yi shook her head slightly and said, "Shes a fool, whats the point of arguing with her? Im just sympathizing with Lian Si-young master, such a handsome and talented man, but in the future hell have such a stupid wife." Yueshou heard Jiang Wan-yis words and turned to look at Yuexin in shock and confusion. Both of them suddenly remembered what happened in the courtyard today, when Eldest Miss saw Lian Si-young master sending gifts to Third Miss with his servant.

  The people of the Jiang family, on New Years Eve, as usual, would gather in the main courtyard to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, taking the opportunity to reunite and chat with each other while savoring some delicious snacks. The elders would mention the progress made by the young masters and misses over the past year, exchanging hearty laughter. Jiang Wan began by following her family members into the main courtyard, playing and laughing with her sisters. When her parents mentioned the praise from the Empress Dowager, she felt a bit embarrassed to face her sisters admiring gazes, so she found an excuse to get up and slip away.

  Jiang Wan-yi stood at the entrance of the main courtyard, suddenly remembering the vibrant flowers that bloomed like green trees in the side courtyard before she left home. She was eager to see how many flowers were still left on the tree in the heavy snow. With great interest, she quietly led two maids into the side courtyard. As they approached the tree, looking up at the bare branches, she tilted her head back and smiled lightly.

  Lian Zimo followed his stepmothers words and, on the last day of the year, brought Xiao Shuai with him to enter the Jiang family through the side door once again. Xiao Shuai whispered behind him in a low voice: "The people of the Jiang family are too much, the small side door next to the main gate is open, but they let Master Lian trudge through the thick snow to come from the side door. The third young lady of the Jiang family may be a bit dull, but she sits upright and looks like she has a good temperament. The people of the Jiang family are too much, the third young lady is so young, just because of her birth mothers affairs, they cant tolerate her, and even Master Lian suffers with her."

  Lian Zimo walked forward along the path, listening to the servants murmurs behind him. The servant was actually talking about the Jiang familys affairs. Lian Zimo turned his head back with an unpleasant expression and coldly said: "Dont you see where we are? Quickly be quiet." The servant looked up at Lian Zimos expression, then lowered his head and said: "Sorry, young master, I was wrong."

  Lian Zi Mo gazed at Xiao Shuns face, which was flushed red with anger. He thought to himself that Xiao Shun was the biological son of his own wet nurse, and had always treated him well, even to the point of being willing to sacrifice his life for him. He couldnt tolerate anyone being rude to him. These few times he came to the Jiang family, he could only enter through the side door. In his heart, he resented the Jiang family, but he had no choice but to follow his mothers wishes and come again and again.

  The young servant had long been dissatisfied in his heart, having endured the previous two times. He thought that this time he would take a look at the side door of the Jiang familys main gate, where the lower-ranking servants were coming and going as usual, but they were not allowed to enter from there. He couldnt help but say a few more words. Lian Zimo glanced at him, and his heart suddenly softened. Looking at him, he said: "Even though I usually indulge you, when speaking, you must consider the occasion." The young servant nodded obediently and said: "Yes."

  Lianzi Mo looked at the little servant and listened to his own words, his facial expression changed to calm. He turned his head and thought about walking forward again, between steps, he saw three women coming towards him from afar, the one in front with peach-like cheeks and almond-shaped eyes, wearing a bright red dress, was smiling and turning her head to talk to the two beautiful girls behind her, who were also nodding with smiles.

  Lian Zi Mo glanced over and knew that it was the young lady loved by Jiang Jia Zhen, accompanied by her maids, who had come to the courtyard to rest and stroll. The snow was falling so heavily that the covered corridor should be their path. He slowed down his pace slightly, thinking of slowing down, and soon two pairs of people would meet face to face, and they could also avoid each other a bit. He deliberately let the three women go first, but unexpectedly, the leading young lady did not walk into the corridor, but instead walked to a tree in the courtyard that was full of snow, laughing and looking up at the tree with a smile on her face.

  He followed behind Lian Zimo, looking up at the young lady in the courtyard. He saw the red-clothed young lady lift her head to look at the tree and smile, thinking to himself: "Its snowing so heavily, but a rich familys young lady isnt afraid of the cold, instead she comes out into the courtyard to take a look at a tree with accumulated snow, and shes laughing so hard its like flowers are blooming." He reached out to tug on Lian Zimos sleeve, reminding him: "Young Master."

  Lianzi Mo turned his head to glance at the young servant, then turned back and took several steps forward. As he stepped, he heard a burst of light laughter, and a girls clear voice rang out: "Look, this icicle hanging from the branch is so strange its funny."
