Princess Xiangrui in Huanzhu

Lan Xin hugged Qing'er to comfort her. Come to think of it, why do the sisters always run into trouble when they are about to achieve their goal?

Although the final outcome is good, the pain in the process is real.

In Lan Xin's arms, where no one could see, Qing'er secretly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

It is not very convenient for Qing'er to do anything in the palace.

"Miss, we have to go find the old lady." Jiang Ning looked at the bright sun outside and was not happy.

But the maid's attitude was very tough.

Jiang Ning has been well-behaved and sensible since childhood, and his character is also weak and vulnerable, which can be seen from the fact that he was controlled by this maid.

Jiang Ning was weak when she was young, and although she was a legitimate daughter, she was not taken seriously.

Ama and E'niang also prefer the second sister who is in good health.

If she hadn't been the eldest daughter and hadn't been favored by her maternity grandma, her life would have been difficult.

Lan'er was sent by her father to take care of her. It was said to be care, but in fact it was surveillance.

She spared no effort to please the old lady like a servant.

Jiang Ning was disgusted countless times, but had to do it. The long-term living environment made her unable to muster up even a little resistance.

The thing she heard most over the years was that she was weak and would have died long ago if she had not been born into the wealthy Jiang family.

Therefore, we should be grateful to the kind Jiang family and give unconditionally to them.

As Jiang Ning grew up, he realized that these things were not right, but he had no desire to resist and could only let himself live in confusion.

Lan'er was secretly happy when she saw Jiang Ning's expression of reluctance but frustration in doing what he said.

So what if he had a good family background? He was still being bossed around by her.

Lan'er didn't have the slightest awe of Jiang Ning in her heart. In her opinion, she was no worse than Jiang Ning except for her background.

But now her task is to do her best to get Jiang Ning to marry in.

By then, as a dowry maid, she would naturally have room to maneuver.

It is very difficult to cross the class barrier, but Lan'er is very confident in herself. With her beauty and wisdom, how could it be impossible?

Jiang Ning had no idea that this maid who was not very friendly to her had such an idea in mind.

But Lan'er's words were equivalent to her father's words, and she had to listen.

In fact, when Jiang Ning first realized that Lan'er was disrespectful to him, he went to Jiang's father to complain.

But what I got was perfunctory response and reprimand.

Gradually, Jiang Ning realized that she had no one to rely on in this family.

Later, Jiang's father sent her to Kyoto. On the one hand, he wanted her to marry the popular young talent Hailancha, and on the other hand, he wanted to use this relationship to get rid of her good-for-nothing brother.

No matter how helpless Jiang Ning was, he had no choice but to do it.

The only thing that made her feel fortunate was that, as far as she knew, Hailancha was a good marriage partner.

As long as she marries him, can she escape from the quagmire of the Jiang family?

Jiang Ning didn't know, but she felt a little bit of anticipation in her heart.

No matter how reluctant he was, Jiang Ning would always go to the old lady at regular times to chat, make cakes, etc.

Now the old lady has a very good impression of Jiang Ning.

Originally, the old lady had some complaints about the Jiang family's practice of despising the poor and loving the rich, but now she smiled happily when she saw Jiang Ning.

Maybe good bamboo shoots come from bad bamboo.

"Old lady."

"Oh, it's Ningning. Come, come, come quickly." The old lady was now calling Jiang Ning's name affectionately.

Jiang Ning also rarely showed a sincere smile.

In fact, she would be willing to stay here even if she didn't marry Hailancha. Her life was much better than her life in the Jiang family. There was no sarcasm or discrimination.

"Old lady..."

Lan Er held the cake plate and whispered in Jiang Ning's ear, "Miss, you should kneel down and offer the cakes."

After saying that, he handed it forward.

A trace of disgust and humiliation flashed in Jiang Ning's eyes, and for the first time in his life he ignored Lan'er's request.

Lan'er looked at Jiang Ning in shock as he ignored her. Jiang Ning's temper had gotten worse in the past few days!

At the same time, a sense of panic surged in her heart, as if something was getting out of her control.

In desperation, Lan'er kicked Jiang Ning's calf.

Because it was in a hidden location, no one else noticed.

Jiang Ning was kicked and almost fell down. After stumbling, he turned back and glared at Lan'er.

Lan'er quickly lowered her head and looked submissive, as if she was not the one who caused the trouble.

The old lady noticed Jiang Ning's actions and asked with concern: "What's wrong, Ningning?"

"It's okay, old lady. I've been a little tired of my bed these days, so I'm a little careless."

Jiang Ning laughed it off and evaded the question.

Lan'er is going further and further. You should know that the Jiang family is a well-known family in the Jiangnan region. You let your eldest daughter do such a licking behavior and you are complacent about it. It's simply hateful!

No matter how cowardly Jiang Ning is, even a rabbit will bite when it is cornered!

Jiang Ning decided not to respect Lan'er in everything anymore, as he was afraid that if he stayed any longer, Lan'er would do something even more outrageous.

It seems I have to find a time to say goodbye.

The old lady nodded in understanding. She became a widow very early and had only one son, Hailancha. Seeing that Jiang Ning was so well-behaved and sensible, she really liked him.

I even thought that if I couldn't be a daughter-in-law, I could just as well be a daughter.

But the old lady knew all about the Jiang family's plan. Since they were interested and Hailancha didn't have a wife now, why not go with the flow?

The old lady took Jiang Ning's hand and smiled at him with satisfaction.

Jiang Ning was talking to make the old lady happy, and Lan'er didn't dare to interrupt.

I just wanted to report to Mr. Jiang that the young lady is disobedient again!

Lan'er used this trick many times, and Jiang Ning would compromise every time because she lacked love so much.

Every time after complaining, Jiang Ning would always be severely punished by his father. Even if Jiang Ning explained, it was useless. Compared with his own daughter, Jiang's father trusted Lan'er more.

Jiang Ning was also angry and helpless.

Lan'er wanted to teach Jiang Ning a lesson.

The nanny beside the old lady came in to report that Hailancha had returned home.

Jiang Ning's expression changed immediately, and the old lady thought Jiang Ning was shy.

In fact, Jiang Ning was at a loss.

She wasn't ready yet. They had just met briefly and didn't even talk to each other.

"Madam, I'll go back first." Seeing this, Jiang Ning planned to escape.

Lan'er beside him was furious. You actually want to miss such a great opportunity!

Jiang Ning made up his mind to leave, but the old lady still wanted Jiang Ning and Hailancha to cultivate their relationship.

There are some regrets at the moment.

Jiang Ning has a good personality and she believes her son will like her.

"Hai Lan Cha just came back, Ning Ning, don't you want to meet him?" The old lady said expectantly. Although it was a marriage arranged since childhood, the old lady also wanted the two of them to be in harmony with each other.

The most important thing is getting along.

"No, madam, I..."

"Yes, old madam, my young lady is fine!" Lan'er stepped forward and interrupted anxiously.

Jiang Ning glared at Lan'er who acted on her own initiative, and then saw the old lady's expectant eyes, feeling a little helpless.
