(Jiang Wanru looked at the darkening sky outside and didn't want to talk to him anymore, so she directly told Lian Hao: "Yu Hao, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep it for myself, so I'll give it to someone else.") Lian Hao calmly asked her: "Who is that person?" Jiang Wanru saw the sharpness in his eyes and her stiff body relaxed instead. She said calmly: "I will naturally give it to someone who treats me well. Third Master, do you want to pursue this further?"

  Lian Hao's eyes narrowed as he gazed at the woman in front of him, his voice low and serious. "I was only worried that you would be deceived by others, so I asked you a few more questions. Now it seems that when I took those two jade pieces from you back then, I made the right decision." He reached up to his neck and removed the red cord with the jade pendant, holding it out to Jiang Wanru. "You can keep this one, just don't give it to anyone else." Jiang Wanru looked at the jade in his hand, thinking about the discerning eye of the Wang family, and lightly shook her head. "You keep it, I don't need this jade."

  Lian Hao saw Jiang Wanru insist on not accepting the jade, so he gently placed it on the table and casually pulled out the jade chain. He looked up at Jiang Wanru and said: "You take this chain with you. From head to toe, except for the golden hairpin on your head, I don't see any gold or jade accompanying you. This jade chain..." Lian Hao didn't continue speaking. The pearls on this chain were personally selected by him from a jade shop, one by one, and he had deliberately chosen 108 of them, thinking that only then would it be perfect.

  Jiang Wan looked at the jade chain on the table, each bead was the same size and evenly rounded, emitting a warm glow. Jiang Wan shook her head slightly, thinking for a moment before gently picking up the peace jade, which emitted a faint warmth from Lian Hua's body temperature. She looked at the red tassel wrapped around the jade and smiled at Lian Hua, saying: "I'll take this jade back. I still like to use a red tassel. This jade chain is too precious, I can't afford it. Thank you for your kindness, Third Master." Lian Hua stood up with a 'ting' sound and said to Jiang Wan: "The jade is yours. You can also dispose of the jade chain."

  After Lian Hao rushed out, Ji Yan burst in and took a look at Jiang Wanru. Seeing her calm expression, she glanced at the jade in Jiang's hand and then looked at the jade chain on the table. She immediately said: "Miss, Third Master's jade chain has not been taken away. Please ask the steward to send it to him quickly. This thing is going to be lost, Miss, and our two current silver coins added together cannot afford the silver of this chain." Jiang Wanru smiled and glanced at Ji Yan, saying: "Third Master said he wanted to give it to me."

  After hearing the words, she relaxed and stood crookedly beside the table, reaching out to pick up the jade pendant on it. She examined it carefully and said: "Miss, this pendant looks like it cost a lot of silver, too eye-catching. You'd better think of a way to return it to Third Master. People from rich and noble families have different ideas than ordinary people. If Miss wears this thing around her neck, isn't that just asking for trouble? It's better to return it, keep your own jade, and I'll make a red string for you to wear tomorrow."

  Jiang Wanmu smiled and looked at her, whispering to tease her: "I'd better take it back first, and then think of a way to get rid of it. This way I can have more silver, which I can use to settle down later." Ji Yan listened and said in a low voice: "It's not good, Miss, what if Third Master changes his mind later and asks for the jade chain back? What will you give him then? Besides, keeping this thing with us is a troublesome matter, it's better to return it." Jiang Wanmu smiled at Ji Yan, who was tightly holding onto the chain and wouldn't let go, and said: "Then help me think of a way to return it."

  "Don't bother thinking of ways, I'll take this chain back myself." Lian Hao stood at the door with a dark face and spoke, scaring Ji Yan so much that her hands opened up suddenly, and the jade chain fell straight to the ground. Jiang Wanru heard Lian Hao's movement and saw Ji Yan's frightened expression when she looked over, seeing her release her grip in shock. She immediately stood up, bent down with a posture of pouncing on the ground, and picked up the jade chain that had fallen to the ground from near the floor. When she was about to turn back to look at Ji Yan with a good mood, she found herself unable to stop her body from getting closer to the ground.

  Jiang Wanru covered the jade pendant with both hands, and a surprised voice of good omen echoed in her ears. Jiang Wanru chose to close her eyes to the impending reality, raised her hands to the top of her head, and resigned herself to the tight embrace of Mother Earth. Jiang Wanru vaguely felt the approaching green bricks on the ground, thinking that it was good that the ground had been wiped clean today, then she thought that with this fall, there would be no way to wipe the ground clean tomorrow.

  Lian Hao originally walked out of the yard, but then remembered that he still had something to say to Jiang Wanru, so he turned back and signaled for the people in the yard to be quiet. He directly entered the room with the open door and heard the conversation between the two people inside. Feeling extremely angry, thinking about how his carefully selected gift was being rejected, Lian Hao blurted out those words. Seeing that little girl drop the chain, he also felt a pang of heartache. However, he didn't expect Jiang Wanru to pounce on the ground like an idiot, pick up the chain from the floor, and even happily think about greeting people with it.

  Lian Hao rushed into the room, just as Jiang Wanru was about to kiss the ground. He stretched out his hand and grabbed her clothes from behind, lifting her off the ground. Jiang Wanru was left dangling in mid-air, turning her head with great effort to look at Lian Hao, who had a furious expression on his face. He put her down on the wooden couch, and she immediately began scolding: "Is there any woman as foolish as you? Is something worth risking your life for?" Lian Hao turned his head to glance at Ji Yan, whose body was shaking with fear, and said coldly: "Get out, you're a useless thing who can't even accomplish anything but only causes trouble. Your family's young lady almost got hurt because of you."

  Ji Yan heard Lian Hua's words and the tears she had been holding back fell, gritting her teeth to say: "I want to stay with my mistress, I won't go out." Lian Hua was too lazy to talk more with a maid, directly ordering: "Go pour water for Madame to drink." Jiang Wanru sat up straight at this time, looking at Ji Yan standing in the middle of the room, hoarsely saying: "Ji Yan, pour a cup of water for me." Ji Yan heard and happily smiled, quickly reacting to rush over and pour water, holding the cup with both hands to Jiang Wanru's side, saying: "Miss, it's all my fault, I've wronged you."

  Jiang Wanmu gazed at the tears streaming down Jiyuan's face, looked at the water handed over to her, and asked in a low voice: "Jiyuan, did your tears fall into the cup? If this is tear-water, I won't drink it." Jiyuan heard this and burst out laughing, then felt embarrassed and quickly wiped away the tears on her face with her hand, saying: "Miss, you're teasing me again. How could I give Miss dirty water to drink?" Jiang Wanmu listened and drank the water. After finishing the water, she saw Lianhao frowning at one side and hastily said: "Thank you, Third Master, for just lending a helping hand."

  Jiang Wanmu saw Lian Hao and didn't pick up where she left off, instead she glared at Jiyuan with an unhappy face and said: "You don't have a capable maid by your side, I'll find one for you to use." Jiang Wanmu looked at Jiyuan's embarrassed face and signaled her to leave first. Jiyuan saw Jiang Wanmu's signal, looked at her worriedly, and seeing that she nodded in agreement, could only lower her head and quickly exit. After Jiyuan left, Lian Hao sat down on the stool beside Jiang Wanmu, causing her to hastily move away a bit.

  Jiang Wanru felt uneasy after moving around and thought about the fact that someone had just saved her. She stood up, walked to the table, sat down, and put the jade chain she was holding tightly in her hand on the table. Turning her head to Lian Hao, who was still sitting in his original position, she sincerely thanked him again: "Third Master, thank you." Lian Hao's dark face sat there, Jiang Wanru's repeated avoidance of him made him feel particularly unhappy, thinking that he should be a likable person, and Jiang Wanru didn't recognize his kindness, probably because she had seen too little before. After Jiang Wanru finished speaking, seeing Lian Hao sitting silently with a black face, she could only sit quietly beside the table.

  Lian Hao waited for a long time, but didn't hear Jiang Wanru say anything else. When he looked up, he saw her with her head bowed and sitting calmly like a mountain. He stood up and walked to the table in big strides, sat down, and glanced at the jade pendant on the table. When he stared at Jiang Wanru, he noticed a man's handkerchief hanging from the edge of the table. His face turned completely black with anger. He stood up, stretched out his hand, and pulled out the handkerchief. When he held it in his hand, he felt that it was a brand new handkerchief, with an unusual flower pattern on it, but the person who embroidered the flowers had obviously not done a good job.

  Lian Hao sat down again, holding the handkerchief and asked Jiang Wanru: "Who did you make this handkerchief for?" Jiang Wanru thought for a moment, raised her eyes and said: "I saw that the young master's wife had a man's handkerchief on her body, it was particularly elegant and good-looking, so I randomly made one for myself to use." Lian Hao heard this and became delighted, laughing and saying: "I didn't think that my brother and sister-in-law were so loving, even using the same handkerchiefs. Then this handkerchief can be considered as you personally making it for me. I'll give you a handkerchief that I've only used for a short while." Jiang Wanru heard his words about exchanging handkerchiefs and felt like vomiting blood, others were showing affection between husband and wife, but in her case, it was completely condescending.

  Jiang Wanru smiled lightly and said, "Third Master, after I finish making this handkerchief, I don't think I'll want to carry a man's handkerchief anymore. In the past, I thought it was good to carry a large handkerchief, but now I feel that no matter how hard I try, I won't be able to learn from the elegance and poise of the young master's wife. I'll just use my own handkerchief as before. If Third Master likes this handkerchief, please take it and use it. If not, when we go out later, you can casually throw it away."

  Lian Hao stuffed the handkerchief into his bosom and looked at Jiang Wanru, saying: "I think the style of the handkerchief is not bad, it's just that the fabric you used is a bit poor. This one will do. I'll get someone to help you get some better materials another day, and then you can make more handkerchiefs for me." Jiang Wanru heard Lian Hao's words and smiled as she shook her head, saying: "Third Master, you're giving me too much credit. My embroidery skills are not good enough to be seen by others, I don't dare accept your request to make handkerchiefs for you no matter what."

  Lian Hao listened to her words, glanced at the jade chain on the table, and thought for a moment before saying: "I'll take back the chain for now, but you have to promise me that you'll help me make a few more handkerchiefs." Jiang Wanru couldn't understand why Lian Hao was so insistent on her making handkerchiefs for him, but thinking that it wasn't worth arguing with him over the chain, she lightly nodded and said: "I'll only do it if I can get the fabric right."
