Married To The Male Lead’s Father
30. Chapter 30
Xiaoyu loves to eat cats
The man is handsome and tall, while the woman is petite and beautiful. The extremes of masculine coldness and softness and gentleness are vividly displayed in them.
The servants in the mansion peeked at the future mistress of the Duke's Mansion from a distance, all with joy and respect in their eyes, only the servant who was loyal to Xie Shizi felt complicated.
In fact, Miss Jiang Si is really nice, gentle and beautiful, with a unique temperament.
I don't know why the prince would withdraw his marriage.
Maybe the eldest lady of Anyuanhou's mansion is more attractive?
"Master Guo, what do you like to do in your spare time?" Jiang Ningbao asked softly with a smile on her lips, making inferences about the Duke's living habits and hobbies.
"Copying Buddhist scriptures?"
Dingguo Gong Xie Heng paused, hesitated for a while and replied, his voice was as cold and deep as ever.
Jiang Ningbao was stunned, but he didn't expect Duke Ding to spend his spare time copying Buddhist scriptures. After thinking about it, Duke Ding not only suppressed evil spirits with the consecrated Buddhist beads, but also had the effect of calming down and stabilizing evil spirits by chanting Buddhist scriptures or copying Buddhist scriptures.
Her eyes fell on the rosewood Buddha bead bracelet on Ding Guogong's wrist, and she unconsciously imagined that Ding Guogong was sitting upright on the desk with a handsome face as cold as a knife, full of evil spirits. The scene of copying Buddhist scriptures seriously and piously at the table.
Jiang Ningbao's mind swayed, and his heart jumped like he was hit by something.
Dingguo Gong Xie Heng keenly sensed the strangeness of the little girl, stopped and stared sideways at her, his deep and cold voice carried a hint of concern.
"you're uncomfortable?"
Jiang Ningbao's pretty face flushed, she was thinking wildly in front of the Duke, and shook her head quickly.
"I'm fine, Lord Guo, can you give me a copy of the Buddhist scriptures you copied?" After speaking, Jiang Ningbao stared straight at Duke Ding with a pair of extremely beautiful eyes, eyes full of expectation.
Duke Dingguo Xie Heng's eyes flickered with hesitation. The Buddhist scriptures he usually copied were all stained with evil spirits, but when he thought that the little girl was not affected by evil spirits, he nodded, "Okay."
When the words fell, the black-clothed guards he recruited to follow gave an order, and the black-clothed guards left quietly. After less than a cup of tea, the black-clothed guards came back and brought a copy of the "Dingguo Gong" written by Duke Ding himself. Diamond Sutra".
Dingguo Gong Xie Heng saw this "Diamond Sutra", which turned out to be a Buddhist scripture he had copied five years ago. He was slightly taken aback, and then handed it to the little girl next to him.
"The Buddhist scriptures you want."
Jiang Ningbao raised the corner of his mouth, took the Buddhist scriptures from him, opened them expectantly, and was dumbfounded.
The words on the Buddhist scriptures are strong and powerful, piercing through the back of the paper, sharp and sharp, revealing an indomitable momentum and soaring evil spirit.
Words are like people.
Dingguogong's hand is vigorous and powerful, and Jiang Ningbao is amazed by his character.
But this is a Buddhist scripture, copying the Buddhist scriptures into such a vicious atmosphere, I am afraid that there is no one except Ding Guogong.
Jiang Ningbao sighed silently in her heart.
If it was someone else, they would definitely be misunderstood and blasphemed the Buddha, but Ding Guogong was an exception. It was not his original intention that the copied Buddhist scriptures be stained with evil spirits.
Maybe copying Buddhist scriptures can really dissolve his evil spirit.
The Buddha is merciful and saves all living beings.
Seeing the little girl open the Buddhist scriptures on the spot, Ding Guogong, who has always been as stable as Mount Tai, couldn't help but fix his eyes on her beautiful side face, and there was a trace of tension in his heart.
This is unprecedented.
Duke Ding was shocked.
Jiang Ningbao closed the "Diamond Sutra" as if nothing had happened, and decided to store the Buddhist scripture in a box after going back. She smiled at Duke Ding: "The Buddhist scripture is very good, I like it very much."
Duke Ding Xie Heng has recovered his composure, as if the tension just now was an illusion, he said softly, "Mmm."
"I'm good at brewing wine. I've brewed a lot in the past few years. I'll give you a few altars tomorrow. I can't refuse." Jiang Ningbao looked at Duke Ding with a smile, raised the Buddhist scriptures in his hand, and said in a brisk tone.
"good."
Duke Ding Xie Heng hesitated and nodded.
Jiang Ningbao was very happy, she deliberately played a little tricky, starting with delivering wine, moistening things silently invaded his life, so that Duke Ding could get used to her existence a little bit.
"Grandpa, will the notebooks you usually write be stained with evil spirits?" Jiang Ningbao asked curiously.
"No, Buddhist scriptures are an exception."
Dingguo Gong Xie Heng paused and said in a low voice.
When copying Buddhist scriptures, he would not suppress the evil spirit on his body, so the words of the Buddhist scriptures were full of evil spirits. The "Diamond Sutra" given to the little girl was copied by him five years ago, and the evil spirit dissipated a lot.
But others still can't read it up close.
Especially women are easily attacked by the evil spirit between the lines in the Buddhist scriptures.
"So that's it, my lord, what else do you usually do besides copying Buddhist scriptures?" Jiang Ningbao put the Buddhist scriptures into his cuffs, and continued to inquire about his living habits with great interest.
"Practice martial arts."
Dingguo Gong Xie Heng walked forward steadily, and replied quietly.
Jiang Ningbao's eyes lit up: "Can you develop internal strength?" At the end of the world, what she practiced without supernatural powers was the ancient martial arts announced by major bases.
It's a pity that after the birth in this life, her parents dote on her, and there are a dozen or so maidservants around her. They can't practice martial arts secretly, so they can only brew medicinal wine to polish their foundation. Don't look at her soft and weak appearance, and she will be gone when the wind blows. In fact, she could knock down seven or eight strong men with her bare hands.
If it hadn't been for her hand itching when she was seven years old, throwing a whip and rolling down a big tree, which frightened her parents, her mother Yang wouldn't have stared at her to learn the etiquette of a lady.
Jiang Ningbao sighed in his heart.
"Excellent qualifications are fine."
Duke Ding replied quietly.
Jiang Ningbao secretly thought that the generals of the Dayue Dynasty would practice martial arts. Listening to the words of the Duke, not everyone can cultivate internal strength. This is the same as the ancient martial arts she knows. After pondering for a moment, Jiang Ningbao tentatively asked: "Master Guo , do you think it is good for women to practice martial arts?"
In ancient times, most men hoped that their first wife would be chaste and virtuous, and their concubines would be gentle and considerate.
But there are also many tiger girls.
In fact, Jiang Ningbao does not want to be a well-behaved lady raised in a deep boudoir. She prefers fresh clothes and angry horses, and lives as she pleases, but her mother, Yang, who comes from a scholarly family, wants her to be a gentle and virtuous lady. After getting married, she will be the wife of the eldest son praised by everyone.
Duke Ding stopped in his footsteps, quietly watching her delicate face.
"Do you want to practice martial arts?"
A flash of surprise flashed in Jiang Ningbao's eyes. Unexpectedly, Ding Guogong thought she wanted to practice martial arts, so she immediately hit the snake on the stick, and her pink lips curled up slightly.
"May I?"
Dingguo Gong Xie Heng's eyes stayed on her charming face for a moment, remembering the little girl said about the little prince in Ruiwang's residence blocking people in the street, he nodded: "Yes."
The little girl was born with a good appearance, and she has the ability to protect herself in case of danger.
"My lord, please give me more advice in the future."
Jiang Ningbao smiled slyly, she was really smart, and created another good opportunity for herself to cultivate her relationship.
Duke Ding Xie Heng nodded.
"Grandpa, I have had the ability since I was a child. The wine brewed with ordinary wine-making recipes has amazing effects. You must remember to keep this secret for me." Jiang Ningbao lowered her voice and spoke softly.
Today I sent a jar of medicinal wine to Mrs. Xie, Jiang Ningbao is ready to expose.
"good."
Duke Dingguo Xie Heng's pupils shrank, a trace of obvious emotion flashed through his eyes filled with evil spirits, and the cold and hard lines of his face softened unconsciously.
"I also brew the flower wine in the Jinjiang teahouse, but the flower wine has been added with water, and the effect is not amazing, and it cannot be compared with the sky-high price wine in Shangyun Winery."
Jiang Ningbao said with a smile.
"I know." Duke Ding Xie Heng said calmly.
Jiang Ningbao: "..."
The two continued to walk forward side by side, perhaps because of the evil spirit lingering on Duke Ding, all the servants shunned, and only Jiang Ningbao talked to Duke Ding with a smile like a flower.
The servants of Duke Dingguo looked at Jiang Ningbao with admiration.
No wonder the old lady said that Miss Jiang Si will be the future mistress of the Duke's Mansion, and only Miss Jiang Si can approach Duke Ding so easily.
So Miss Jiang Si is special.
Chunxi held a delicate box in his hand, followed far behind, not daring to get too close, as soon as he got close, he was like a drowning fish, suffocating and uncomfortable.
Housekeeper Zhao at the side glanced at Chunxi's pale face, and smiled: "If you feel unwell, we can stay a little further away, the Duke won't care."
Chunxi blushed in embarrassment.
"Thank you, Butler Zhao."
Butler Zhao deliberately slowed down, and moved a little further away from Duke Ding. Chunxi finally looked better.
No matter how long the road was, Jiang Ningbao looked at the gate that was close at hand, and sighed silently in his heart. When he got into the carriage, he would not be able to talk with Duke Ding at such a close distance.
Perhaps Jiang Ningbao's resentment was too great. When she and Dingguo Gong Xie Heng stepped out of the gate, Xie Shizi, who had gone to Anyuanhou's Mansion to propose a marriage, came back at this time.
Looking at the mighty guards not far away, especially the handsome man in the lead galloping on horseback, wearing a dark red brocade robe with silver thread weaving.
There is also a familiar carriage next to him.
Jiang Ningbao: "..."
What kind of fate is this, to bump into the former fiancé and heroine Yang Shuqing at the gate of Duke Dingguo's mansion.
Those who are sympathized are those who are blacked out and trampled on. As the heroine, Yang Shuqing is born to attract the jealousy of women. As her fame grows, those who are jealous of her are like leeks that grow wildly. Another crop.
Xie Jingyi, who has an excellent reputation, also has many people taking the opportunity to add insult to injury, and his reputation must be ruined.
"Miss Jiang Si is so pitiful."
"Miss Jiang Si is also unlucky. She didn't do anything, but she was withdrawn. I don't know if Miss Yang is too charming, or Mr. Xie is too ruthless."
"I don't know, don't talk nonsense. The eldest son of the Duke's Mansion retired to take responsibility. I heard that the eldest son of the Duke's Mansion would recognize Miss Jiang Si as his younger sister. The kind who entered the genealogy actually became Dingguo from his fiancée. The eldest lady of the government is also good."
"Fuck, what kind of responsibility is this? Don't insult the word responsible. If you ask me, this Mr. Xie is also cruel. I don't know what ecstasy soup was poured into him by that Miss Yang. I just feel sorry for Fourth Miss Jiang."
"Actually, it's not bad to be the eldest lady of Dingguo's mansion."
"What's not bad? Miss Jiang Si is an outsider who entered the genealogy of the Xie family. Maybe it will be good at first, but who can guarantee that she will marry someone later?"
"I have an inside information. Miss Yang and Shizi Xie have known each other for a long time. Miss Yang's falling into the water at Princess Rui's peach blossom banquet was actually a well-planned scheme."
"What, true or false?"
"It's true, very few people know about it."
"The truth turns out to be like this. Mr. Xie probably already has the intention of retiring. Poor Fourth Miss Jiang was plotted by Miss Yang and Mr. Xie together."
"Unfortunately, I still think that Miss Yang is extremely intelligent, and she doesn't give in to men. I didn't expect her to be so scheming, and she shamelessly plotted against her fiancé secretly."
Jiang Ningbao, who was staying in the mansion, didn't know that the rumors outside became more and more crazy. The images of the heroine Yang Shuqing and the heroine Xie Jingyi have been discredited a lot, and she has become the object of everyone's sympathy.
If he knew, Jiang Ningbao would just laugh it off.
Black male and female protagonists are useless, the worse the black, the more exciting it will be to reverse and wash white.
Anyuanhoufu
Yang Shuqing sat in front of the dressing table, looking at the beautiful woman with bright eyes and white teeth in the bronze mirror, her heart couldn't help but feel a touch of sweetness. She never thought that the powerful Ding Guogong in her previous life would withdraw from Jiang Ningbao because of her.
"Miss Jiang Si, I really didn't mean to steal your fiance."
Yang Shuqing murmured, with a flash of hesitation in her eyes. Finally, she got up and walked to the desk, wrote a letter with a brush in her hand, called her confidant maid Clinique to come in, and handed it to her.
"Clinique, deliver this letter to Duke Ding."
Clinique took the letter and received the cuff, responded respectfully and backed out.
Yang Shuqing looked at the curling smoke in the incense burner with complicated eyes. She admitted that she was attracted to Ding Guogong's son, but now she hasn't cleaned up the enemies in her previous life, and hasn't taken revenge on King Jin and Princess Jin. I don't want to get married so soon.
But for her to give up Xie Jingyi, she...she couldn't bear it.
She also wants to be held in the hands of others, to be loved and loved, and to have her own tenderness. There is no other woman, only her.
Only Xie Jingyi can give her such feelings.
In his previous life, he had only one woman, Jiang Ningbao, and he envied all the women in the capital.
Yang Shuqing is also one of them.
During those years of living in the cold palace, she had imagined countless times, if she hadn't been desperate to marry Jin Wang as a side concubine...would everything have been different?
Even if you can't marry a man as dedicated as Xie Jingyi, you can still be a respected wife.
She wanted Fengguan Xiapei, to marry in a good manner, and to be a righteous wife.
This has become Yang Shuqing's obsession.
In this life, Yang Shuqing has changed from being coquettish and ignorant in her previous life, and is no longer fascinated by love. She takes every step of the way to seize the opportunity, and disguises herself as a man to make friends with powerful people in the future.
But the rumors outside are raging, many people are fishing in troubled waters, trying to smear her. Her father's aunts and concubines must have contributed to this. At this time, she can't force her head, so as not to paint more and more black.
Only let Xie Shizi take action.
However, she couldn't just do nothing. Yang Shuqing lowered her eyes in thought, with a clear light beating in her eyes. After a while, she decided to invite Jiang Ningbao to meet and apologize to her in person.
As soon as he thought of it, Yang Shuqing called another confidant maid, Qian Rong, and handed her another letter. After giving her some instructions in a low voice, Qian Rong hurriedly left Anyuanhou's mansion.
Changningbo Mansion
Jiang Ningbao quietly waited for the dissolution of the engagement with Xie Jingyi. After waiting for three days in a row, there was no news. She raised her eyebrows in surprise, and thought to herself, Xie Jingyi won't decide not to divorce because of the rumors outside, right?
No, it should not be possible.
The male and female protagonists in the novel of rebirth are extremely attractive, especially Xie Jingyi who has developed a little affection for the female protagonist Yang Shuqing, how can the female protagonist be wronged.
"Girl, there is no news for three days, Mr. Xie probably won't withdraw from the engagement."
The maidservant Chun Xi couldn't hide the joy on her face, even though there was an uproar outside, but the marriage contract between the girl and Xie Shizi has not been formally dissolved, maybe there is room for reversal.
The eldest lady who didn't look at the mansion was watching, not daring to go too far.
"Chunxi, what are you happy about? Mr. Xie didn't say he wouldn't divorce." Jiang Ningbao chuckled, and poured cold water on her without hesitation.
The joy on Chunxi's face faded, and she glanced at the girl resentfully, why the girl was thinking in a pessimistic direction.
"Chunxi, I asked you to send someone to watch the movements of the Dingguo Duke's Mansion and the Miss Anyuanhou's Mansion. Did you find anything?" Jiang Ningbao didn't want to pay attention to the bad things about Xie Jingyi, the hero of the original text, she just wanted to know about Mrs. Xie. mean.
It's been three days, but housekeeper Zhao hasn't given a letter of approval yet.
The eldest aunt kept making small moves. According to Jiang Ningbao's knowledge, Zhang's confidantes had met with Xie Jingyi's servants several times, and they didn't know what they had traded with Xie Shizi.
Jiang Ningbao frowned slightly.
Yesterday, the uncle who never cared about her came over and beat her up. What he said was that it was imperative to withdraw from the marriage, and told her not to do unnecessary petty moves.
Uncle is a man of mediocre aptitude. He has inherited the title of Uncle Changning as the eldest son, and has a sixth-rank official position. He has not been promoted for so many years.
The one that Dingguogong Shizi compensated was a fifth-rank official, no need to guess, she must have been targeted by her uncle.
Jiang Ningbao squinted her eyes, and thought indifferently, how could she fall into the hands of the Dafang from the official position of the fifth rank, and she also has a biological elder brother.
"Girl, Mrs. Xie left Dingguo Duke's Mansion two days ago and hasn't returned yet. Mr. Xie, Mr. Xie, he has met with the eldest lady of Anyuan Hou's Mansion several times in private."
Chunxi hesitated for a moment, lowered his head, not daring to look at the girl, and whispered what he had discovered in the past three days.
"Why didn't you tell me about this?" Jiang Ningbao took a sip of tea, her extremely beautiful eyes stared straight at Chunxi's anxious face, as if she had read her thoughts.
"Slave... Slave..." Chunxi's face turned red, and she dared not explain. Could she say that she was afraid that the girl would be sad, so she did not report it?
How could Jiang Ningbao not know Chunxi's meaning, sighed softly, and said softly: "Chunxi, I will not pursue this matter, and I will not conceal it in private in the future."
Don't look at Jiang Ningbao as a weak and weak woman who lives deep in Changningbo's mansion and hardly shows her face outside, but with the dowry and contacts left by her mother, Jiang Ningbao is not only very familiar with the movement in the mansion, but also knows the news from outside.
I'm afraid that Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Jiang don't know that Jiang Ningbao hides so deeply.
At this time, a woman's voice came from outside.
"Fourth Miss, I have your letter."
"Chunxi, go and get it in." Jiang Ningbao was overjoyed. Could it be the elder brother's reply, speaking of which, shopkeeper Yao should have sent her letter to the elder brother.
When Chunxi brought the letters in, Jiang Ningbao was a little surprised, there were two of them, she took a look, and it turned out that one was a reply letter from her elder brother, and the other was an invitation letter from Miss Anyuanhou.
Jiang Ningbao put down Yang Shuqing's invitation letter, and first unpacked the elder brother's reply letter. Seeing the vigorous and familiar handwriting in the letter, the corners of Jiang Ningbao's mouth curled up slightly.
After reading the letter, Jiang Ningbao was in a great mood.
The eldest brother is really on his side, even if she said that she wants to marry Ding Guogong, the eldest brother did not try to persuade her, but only said in a roundabout way not to make him worry, let her take good care of herself.
Chunxi watched anxiously from the side, wondering if the third young master had persuaded the girl to give up the terrible idea of marrying Duke Ding.
