On the eighth day of the New Year, snowflakes were flying outside, and the sound of wind and snow was endless. The whole world was covered in white snow, Jiang Wanru stood outside the house, listening to the roar of the nearby wind and snow, and then listened to the laughter coming from afar, her eyebrows furrowed deeply. Ji Yan came in from the gate, saw the worried look on her face, walked over and nodded slightly towards Jiang Wanru, saying: "Miss, I just went to ask about Spring Sister, she said she would pay attention to guarding Yu Niang." Jiang Wanru's brow relaxed a little upon hearing this.
Jiang Wanru returned to her room, thinking about what Qiu Chun had said a few days ago: "Miss, I don't know how long I can keep the engagement between Young Master Lian and the two young ladies from Madam." Jiang Wanru had said at the time: "See if you can get away with it for now?" Qiu Chun had shaken her head at the time and said: "Miss, Madam only has that one thing on her mind right now, it's not going to work, I'm afraid she won't be able to hold on either." Jiang Wanru thought for a long time before saying to her: "Then just see how long we can keep it from her, count the days."
Jiang Wanmu sat by the table, thinking of Yu Niang, and sighed silently in her heart. She sat by the table, quiet as ever, and even Jiyan was quieter than usual. Jiang Wanmu's thoughts were heavy, she got up to retrieve the paper that Jiyan had written on, and sat back down, using the back side of each sheet to write more characters. She bowed her head to write, and after a long time, heard Jiyan say: "Miss, your handwriting is better than Lian Shao's."
Jiang Wanmu smiled slightly at the corner of her mouth when she heard Ji Yan's words, and nodded at him saying: "His calligraphy is far inferior to his reputation. However, for a beginner like you, using his calligraphy as a model will do. Later I'll write some model characters for you to practice from, so that in the future people won't say your handwriting is ugly in front of me."
Ji Yan pouted and said, "Even Young Master's eyesight is not good, his brain is not good enough." Jiang Wanru heard her words, thought for a moment, put down her brush, slightly raised her eyes to remind her, "After today, he will be the eldest brother-in-law of the Jiang family, you must not mention him in front of people in the future." Ji Yan glanced at Jiang Wanru, lowered her head and responded, "Hmm, I remember Miss's words."
Jiang Wanmu saw Ji Yan still with a wronged expression, thinking that she was still young after all, shook her head and smiled lightly: "Ji Yan, you are by my side, if you repeatedly mention him to others, they will think I'm obsessed with him. He's not worth me forgetting about him." Ji Yan heard Jiang Wanmu's words, his eyes lit up and said: "Miss, I didn't think of that. Ha! He's not worthy of the miss, I won't mention him again in the future."
Jiang Wanmu glanced at Jiyu, who had calmed down, and looked at the colorful flowers on the embroidered canopy that hadn't moved yet. She smiled and said, "You can continue embroidering calmly." The two mistress and servant sat peacefully in the room, each doing their own thing. From time to time, they would get up and jump around a few times inside the room. Time flew by quickly, and when Jiyu was about to go out of the door to wait for lunch, she had already heard the sound of the courtyard gate creaking open.
Jiang Wanru heard the sound of the courtyard gate and raised an eyebrow, not quite understanding. She still told Jiyan, "You go ask who it is first, then open the courtyard gate." Jiyan listened to her words and went out of the room. A moment later, two women carried high trays of food behind Jiyan, smiling as they walked in. The woman in front smiled at Jiang Wanru and said, "Third Miss, there are many guests in the mansion today. The mistress thought it was cold outside, so she had us bring some hot dishes for you to use."
Jiang Wanru had never received such treatment before, she just quietly looked at the woman and let them put the dishes on the table. Hearing the woman who brought the food say to her: "Third Miss, the mistress is concerned about you. She said that today's wind and snow are heavy outside, your body is thin, don't go out of the courtyard gate. Tonight's meal, no need to go out to fetch it, we will send it over early for you to use."
Jiang Wanru glanced at the two women a few times, thinking to herself that her stepmother was still worried that she would cause trouble. She smiled and casually mentioned: "Hm, it sounds like there's quite a commotion outside today, I'm tempted to go take a look." The two women exchanged a glance upon hearing this. The woman who had not spoken before turned to Jiyan standing beside her and said: "Jiyan, keep an eye on your young mistress. There are many noble guests in the manor today, if we accidentally bump into them, it would be unbearable for us servants."
Ji Yan's face showed some anger as he listened to the woman's obvious warning. He glanced at Jiang Wanru, who was calm and composed, and saw her lightly shake her head before saying: "Auntie Jiang, my mistress has never been one to cause trouble all these years." The woman wanted to say a few more words to Ji Yan, but was stopped by another woman.
The two of them dragged Ji Yan out of the courtyard in front of Jiang Wan, one on each side. Jiang Wan could hear their conversation from inside the house and shook her head as she sat at the table. When Ji Yan returned, her face was still filled with anger. Seeing her come in, Jiang Wan opened the lunchboxes one by one, gesturing for her to sit down and eat.
Jiang Wanru was eating a more sumptuous meal than usual, gazing at Jiyuan's bitter melon face. She saw that Jiyuan was using her chopsticks to flip over and over the dish in front of her, staring angrily at the food on the plate. After Jiang Wanru ate a few mouthfuls of rice, she saw that Jiyuan was still like this, and she couldn't help but speak up: "Jiyuan, other people say their own words, we eat our own meals. Why must you be so angry, starving your own belly?" Jiyuan was startled by Jiang Wanru's voice, her chopsticks slipping from her hand, and she looked at Jiang Wanru with a flustered face.
Jiang Wanmu gazed at her, sighing softly and saying: "What are you panicking about? We've known about this for several days already. Today is the big sister's engagement, a great occasion, we don't have a share in watching the excitement, but we do get to follow and eat some good food. As for those two women's words, you don't need to remember them for too long." Ji Yan raised her head, looking at her, and blurted out: "Big sister has snatched Miss's man."
Jiang Wan's chopsticks slowly picked up a dish and sent it to her mouth, thinking that in these years of practicing at the Jiang family, she had become broad-minded, deep-thinking, and had high aspirations. She was secretly pleased with herself when suddenly hearing Ji Yan's words, the food in her mouth "pffft" sprayed out, fortunately she turned quickly, the food in her mouth shot out like a fountain onto the floor outside the table, without dirtying the dishes on the table.
Jiang Wanmu sighed and said, "Ji Yan, this joke isn't funny. My family's young lady is only nine years old, where would there be a man?" Ji Yan looked at Jiang Wanmu directly and said, "Everyone in the entire household knows that Big Miss has snatched away Lian Shaoxia." Jiang Wanmu couldn't help but rub her forehead, as Ji Yan had been fixated on this point for days. No matter how Jiang Wanmu tried to explain it to her, she just wouldn't let go of it. It could only be said that Jiang Wanyi had previously been deified as a fairy, and now suddenly did something human-like, which made this young woman unable to bear it.
Jiang Wanmu could only coldly tell her, "Hurry up and eat, the food will get cold soon, I'll be angry." Ji Yan then lowered her head and quickly ate. Jiang Wanmu had originally been in the mood to enjoy her meal, but after Ji Yan's words, she couldn't bring herself to eat anymore and could only put down her bowl and chopsticks. She thought that if Ji Yan was already like this, then Yu Niang, who had been eagerly anticipating success, would probably not be able to get past this hurdle once she knew the truth.
