Chapter 35: The Three Sisters Have Different Thoughts

Chapter 35 The Three Sisters Have Different Thoughts
Jiang Shiyuan sometimes really wondered what was wrong with this second aunt's brain. They were all members of the Jiang family, but she always wanted to distinguish between the superiors and the inferiors, as if she would get no pleasure by stepping on the people of the eldest wife to death. So there was a layer of anger in his eyes, and then he asked.

"How did she embarrass Aunt Yang?"

"After we left the house, my aunt was summoned by my grandmother. She said that she was lazy and disregarded the rules, so she was punished to kneel on the broken porcelain. When I went to see my aunt, she hadn't told me. If I hadn't seen the bottle of medicine, I'm afraid she wouldn't have known about it."

"is it serious?"

Jiang Shiyuan asked with concern, Jiang Shishu nodded, and then his eyes were full of heartache.

"It was all bruised and purple, and it was a bit difficult to walk. There were also some small wounds, which scabbed over after applying medicine."

Hearing this, Jiang Shiyuan also felt that Aunt Yang was innocent. She had never caused any trouble in the backyard for so many years, but now she was being tormented by Second Aunt just for having such an idea. Grandmother was also an unreasonable person. She was deceived by Second Aunt every day and even resorted to lynching.

"Dad, do you know?"

Jiang Shishu shook his head in grievance, his eyes reddened, but he still tried not to let his emotions show too much.

"My aunt said that my father has been busy lately, so I shouldn't bother him with such trivial matters. If my elder sister invites me in the future, I will go to the banquet. But I really can't bear to see my aunt suffer for me, so elder sister, I'd better stay at home obediently."

She said this without any thought in her heart, she was just worried about her aunt's sadness, which was much more sincere than the fourth girl just now.

Jiang Shiyuan was not stupid, so he could naturally see it. He was just about to say a few words when Jiang Shiyue happened to come back and heard what had happened outside the door. She immediately lifted her skirt and walked in, speaking with some excitement and weakness.

"Big sister, are you going to take my third sister out? Can you take me with you? For so many years, I have barely been to the front hall, let alone going out. Mother locks me in the house every day. I really don't know what to do."

As soon as the words came out, everyone present looked over.

There was no shock in Jiang Shiyuan's eyes. After all, he already knew her personality. However, this little girl was probably too eager for quick success and instant benefits in her words and deeds because of her young age. He then softened his tone and spoke calmly.

"Fourth sister, you heard it wrong. Third sister said that we should not invite her to any banquets in the future. So do you think I should agree or not?"

Jiang Shiyue looked at the sisters in front of her with a little embarrassment, feeling extremely regretful in her heart.

Not only did she misunderstand, but she also spoke in such a hurry just now. If her elder sister noticed something wrong, wouldn't she be losing both the wife and the army?
She had thoroughly offended her stepmother. If she couldn't get any benefits from her elder sister, she might as well go back and listen to her stepmother and meet the third young master of the palace. So she laughed awkwardly and said.

"It's natural that the third sister doesn't like to go out because she has a quiet personality. The eldest sister and the third sister should make the decision. As the younger sister, I dare not say much."

Jiang Shiyuan looked at the somewhat shy fourth sister in front of him, and his impression of her dropped even more. However, living in a place like the Second House where there were all kinds of people, one naturally had to be more careful in order to live a more stable life. So as long as she didn't do anything too outrageous, Jiang Shiyuan wouldn't treat her too harshly.

So he handed the handkerchief to the third sister Jiang Shishu and then spoke softly to comfort her.

"You have to make your own way. If you keep giving in, people will think you are weak and can be bullied. This is a matter of a lifetime, so I think Aunt Yang is right. You have to go!"

Her words did not seem to be very useful to Jiang Shishu, but they touched Jiang Shiyue's heart. Yes, they were already living in this mud. If they did not struggle to move forward, who would be willing to help them? People only have one life to live, so of course they have to live well. Thinking of this, a lot of calculating thoughts bloomed between his humble eyebrows.

As the three sisters were talking, someone suddenly came in from outside.

"Miss, the party is over. The old lady said that the third and fourth girls can go back. But if you want to stay here and talk with me, that's fine."

The girl looked unfamiliar, but no one suspected her.

With the previous experience as a lesson, the third girl Jiang Shishu did not dare to stay any longer, so she stood up and left respectfully. The fourth girl Jiang Shiyue wanted to stay for a while, but unfortunately she could see her elder sister's tiredness and attitude of seeing her off, so she couldn't stay here shamelessly, so she left Tingshixuan with the third girl.

After the two sisters left, Luluo walked up to Jiang Shiyuan and couldn't help but complain.

"The eldest lady didn't see it, but the fourth lady praised this courtyard from top to bottom. She even said that ordinary copper basins and water were more precious than what she used in her own room. Alas, I don't know how to respond."

"Alright, after all, the fourth lady is the master, and you and I are servants, so we can't make irresponsible comments, okay?"

Liuhua spoke up to stop Luoluo from wanting to continue talking, and Jiang Shiyuan saw this and chuckled.

"They are all small matters, so don't take them to heart. However, Second Aunt reminded me today that Fourth Sister is only thirteen and her family has already started to arrange her marriage. Third Sister is already fourteen, so we really can't delay. I will ask my cousin's wife when I return to the Marquis' Mansion tomorrow. She may have some connections."

"Why doesn't the eldest lady ask after the lady? She should have more contact with the ladies on a daily basis."

Jiang Shiyuan looked at Luoluo's innocent look and felt that she was a simple-minded person. During these few days in the Marquis' Mansion, he didn't even notice that his aunt didn't like his third sister very much, but his cousin's wife cared about her more.

So he smiled and explained to her.

"Most of the people my aunt has made friends with in the past are from the duke's mansion. Such families are too high-class, so it is unlikely that my third sister will marry into one of them. On the contrary, my cousin's wife is more feasible. Her grandfather is the Shangshu Ling. There are many young talents in the six ministries who should be known to her family. Choosing someone with a clean family background and a simple family background may be a better option."

"So that's how it is. The eldest girl is really smart. She can handle these things beautifully at home now. When she marries to Hanzhou in the future, she will definitely be able to be the mistress of the Pei family!"

Luoluo's "compliments" were sincere and genuine. Liuhua couldn't help but smile mischievously after hearing her words. Jiang Shiyuan, on the other hand, looked calm, then rested his chin on his hand, looking helpless.

"Yes, young lady, I am not only very smart, but also very beautiful. What can I do? God just loves me a little bit more."

"Ah? Miss, you can't brag about this yourself. It would be best if the servants did it. If outsiders knew about it, they would probably say you have no shame."

Luoluo interrupted her quickly. Her nervous expression made Jiang Shiyuan and Liuhua laugh. The things that happened in Tai'an Courtyard this afternoon were also forgotten along with the laughter...
