Five days later, Jiang Yuan appeared outside the gate of the Jiang Mansion in the Marquis's carriage.

The servants were moving things into the carriage one by one. Every year when they went to Qiuer Mountain to worship their ancestors, they had to bring a lot of tributes, but Jiang Yuan took a look and found that this year they were all replaced with ordinary stuff.

In previous years, chickens would be brought to the mansion for selection. The biggest and most vigorous ones would be picked out and raised in the mansion. A chef would be invited to come and make them into roast chickens.

The same goes for the duck and the pigs, all of which are whole roasted suckling pigs. The dim sum is bought from the best dim sum shops in Beijing, and the wine is the finest Huadiao.

This year, the chickens and ducks look so dry, as if they have never eaten any feed and have grown up eating grass.

The pig only had a pig's head, and that head looked like a pig that was not even a month old, so small.

The dim sum looked like it was made at home, but the other items were hard to describe.

Father Jiang led the whole family out of the door and saw the marquis's magnificent carriage at a glance.

Jiang Wan took a look at her own carriage, then at Jiang Yuan's carriage. She was so angry that her hair stood on end and her eyes were full of fire. She pulled Jiang's father's sleeve hard and winked at him.

Father Jiang also snorted, pointed at Jiang Yuan and cursed, "Why are you so extravagant and ostentatious now? Going to worship the ancestors, you will cause gossip and bring shame to our ancestors."

Jiang Yuan leaned against the bicycle frame, picking at his fingers, and sneered without even raising his head, "Isn't it because you look so shabby that you bring shame to our ancestors?

Look at those things. If our ancestors saw them, they would probably think that you, father, were so poor that you couldn’t even make ends meet.

Why, you can't live without a woman's dowry."

Jiang Yuan casually glanced at the things the servants were moving, "Tsk, tsk, tsk, this wine, change to Shaodao, oh, the ancestors even hate it when they rinse their mouths."

"You, you disobedient and unfilial thing, did you come back just to piss me off? If that's the case, get out of here. My Jiang family doesn't have a daughter like you."

Jiang Yuan's eyes lit up and he put his hands down, "Really? That's great, let's go, Chunzhi, let's go back, I'm still sleepy."

As he turned around and was about to get on the carriage, Jiang Wan panicked and hurriedly grabbed Jiang's father and shook her head at him.

He walked quickly to Jiang Yuan, pulled her as she was getting on the carriage, and said in a high voice, "Sister, don't be angry, father didn't mean that.

You also know that every year on my grandfather’s birthday, my father is sad and his temper is always bad.

My younger sister is very lucky and is loved by the eldest princess. This is a blessing for the Jiang family. Grandfather will be very happy when he knows this. In the future, the family still counts on my younger sister to help.

Come on, take a ride with me. We sisters haven’t had a good chat for a long time.”

Jiang Yuan frowned and looked at Jiang Wan. He really couldn't imagine how thick-skinned this person was to be able to say such words. He was indeed a very flexible person.

Seeing that she was staring at her, Jiang Wan's eyes flashed with panic, "Sister, why are you looking at me like this?"

"Big sister, does your face hurt?"

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, Jiang Wan couldn't hold it back any longer. Her expression changed and she became vicious in an instant.

He let go of Jiang Yuan and took a few deep breaths in front of her, probably trying to calm down his anger, but failed in the end and walked away with his head turned.

Jiang Yuan rolled his eyes. What kind of psychological quality is that? It’s useless to praise her. She’s not that great.

After getting on the carriage, Chunzhi kept nervously twisting the handkerchief in her hand, feeling very uneasy.

"Don't be afraid, we will definitely have an accident."

"Well, I don't...ah?" Haruzhi screamed after reacting, becoming even more frightened and nervous.

He sat down next to Jiang Yuan from the opposite side and held her arm tightly, "Miss, what should we do? The eldest master is not here either."

"It's better if my brother is not around, so I don't have to worry about him." Jiang Yuan closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep, then took out a dagger from his waist and handed it to Chunzhi.

"Take it, you can use it for self-defense if needed."

Chunzhi was shaking uncontrollably. When she tried to grab the dagger, she almost dropped it, and she held it tightly in both hands.

"Girl, are you saying that we will meet thieves?"

Jiang Yuan nodded. According to Jiang Wan's character, she could only arrange this kind of drama, either arranging for Jiang Yuan to be kidnapped by thieves, or spreading the news that her reputation was ruined, or letting Qin Yunzheng come to rescue the beauty.

Even with her needle-sized brain, she couldn't think of anything more brilliant.

In order to reassure Chunzhi, Jiang Yuan told her the truth, "Who am I? I was sent by your young lady to protect you. If I don't have any skills, your young lady can't be trusted."

Chunzhi was panic-stricken and at a loss. She was stunned for a moment and looked at Jiang Yuan. Seeing her smiling at her, she realized that this was not the weak and helpless girl in her family.

This girl has the soul of a master in her body. She practices boxing at home every day, and sometimes plays with a stick. She looks quite powerful.

"Then, then girl, you..."

"I only have one request for you."

"Girl, tell me."

"Find a place, hide well, and don't fall behind, that's the first step."

Chunzhi nodded very seriously, holding the dagger tightly in both hands, looking forward with firm eyes, and her mind had already begun to think about how she should hide herself.

Jiang Yuan actually wanted to bring Luzhu with him because Luzhu was brave and had many clever ideas. However, her hand had not healed yet and the wound had just scabbed over. It would be bad if it split open.

Zhishu and Mohua are even worse, so Chunzhi is the only one. Fortunately, Chunzhi is obedient and careful, and is a trustworthy person who knows her inside out.

What Jiang Yuan said was also to scare Chunzhi. With her skills, protecting Chunzhi would be a piece of cake for her.

What's more, with the few pieces of information we found before, the ones who ambushed Jiang Huai, even if ten or eight of them attacked together, Jiang Yuan could handle it with one hand.

The Jiang family doesn't have that much money, and she can't hire anyone more powerful.

Of course, it is enough to deal with Jiang Yuan, who is powerless.

But she is not Jiang Yuan.

The carriage stopped at the foot of the mountain. Qiuer Mountain is not high and the scenery is pleasant. Many people's graves are here.

After Jiang Zhou became an official, in order to show off his power, he spent a lot of money to move the Jiang family's ancestral tomb here.

Of course, there are not many people in the Jiang family’s ancestral tomb. The Jiang family was originally very poor. Jiang Zhou’s father, that is, grandfather, was a scholar, but he was just a scholar all his life. He was the only scholar in that village in a hundred years.

Going further up, even the eldest son is not recognized. My grandfather’s father, that is, Taizu, came here to escape famine. If you flip two pages up in the Jiang family tree, you won’t even find his name.

Therefore, the matter of moving the ancestral tombs was not particularly troublesome. The village was not originally the Jiang family's ancestral home, and there were only three tombs that needed to be moved, but the event was a particularly grand one.

When Jiang Yuan thought about how her dead father was using her mother's dowry to show off his power, she became furious.
