Chapter 43: The Second Branch of the Family Must Be Driven Out of the Marquis's Residence
Jiang Sheng stood up to greet Song Qingyan.
Seeing the slight anger on her face, Jiang Sheng knew that she was distressed that he had gotten himself into such a mess just to see her.
"It's all that Liu's fault, Yan'er. I suffered some grievances just to see you, but I love you deeply and I'm willing to do anything for you," Jiang Sheng said affectionately.
The stench that hit her head made Song Qingyan retreat in disgust.
Jiang Sheng took another step forward.
He hurriedly explained his purpose: "Yan'er, I've come to see you today because it's important."
"You are about to marry into the Jiang family and will be my Jiang family's daughter-in-law. You must be filial to my mother with me. My mother raised me with great difficulty, and she has been worrying about our marriage. As a daughter-in-law, it is only right that I be filial and grateful to her."
"You don't need to spend too much. Just give her a few jade bracelets or some valuable jewelry, and my mother will know how you mean it."
Jiang Sheng continued talking to himself.
"What...did you say?" Song Qingyan's mind went blank for a moment, unable to believe what she had heard.
"Yan'er, do you think a few jade bracelets and pieces of jewelry are too few? If you want to please your mother, it wouldn't hurt to give her more," Jiang Sheng continued.
At this moment, Song Qingyan believed that she had heard it.
He immediately turned red with anger.
How dare Jiang Sheng ask her to give his mother expensive jewelry?
As the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Yongning, why should she try to please that old hag?
Song Qingyan was so angry that she was trembling and unable to speak.
Jiang Sheng interpreted the blush on her face as shyness and excitement.
"You don't need to do that. You're going to be my wife, so I should be thinking of you."
"The Jiang family will come to the Marquis's residence to propose marriage after the Dragon Boat Festival. My mother said she will prepare eighty-eight loads of betrothal gifts for you, which will surely make you proud, but..."
"You know the Jiang family's situation. My mother raised me with great difficulty, and the betrothal gifts are still a bit short of eighty-eight loads."
"If you can take the initiative to add to the collection and relieve your mother's worries, she will know how thoughtful you are and will like you even more. This will be beneficial for your relationship with your mother-in-law in the future."
Jiang Sheng looked at Song Qingyan with tender eyes, "Yan'er, I've gone to great lengths for you, but since you understand my feelings, it's all been worth it!"
Song Qingyan almost fainted from anger.
Her chest heaved violently.
Suddenly, her hand touched the vase on the table, and she smashed it hard on Jiang Sheng's head.
Pointing at Jiang Sheng, she roared angrily, "Jiang Sheng, stop daydreaming! Listen to me properly, I, Song Qingyan, will never marry you!"
Jiang Sheng was hit so hard that his head spun and blood flowed from his forehead.
He was stunned for a moment when he heard Song Qingyan's roar.
"Yan'er, what did you say?"
"I told you I could never marry you!"
Song Qingyan's face contorted with rage. "Jiang Sheng, don't you even look at yourself in the mirror? You dare to dream of marrying me? I, Song Qingyan, want to marry into a high-ranking family, to be a prince or nobleman. Are you, Jiang Sheng, worthy of that?"
Song Qingyan was so angry that she lost her mind.
Recalling Jiang Sheng's words, a thought flashed through Song Qingyan's mind: Jiang Sheng deserves to die!
Song Qingyan gripped the vase tightly and threw it at Jiang Sheng again.
This time, Jiang Sheng was on guard.
Jiang Sheng knocked the vase away and slapped Song Qingyan hard across the face.
The commotion attracted the servants of the Marquis's residence.
As soon as Lady Liu entered Youlan Courtyard, she saw this scene.
Maids and nannies protected the aggrieved and crying Song Qingyan, while servants and guards forced the disheveled Jiang Sheng to kneel on the ground.
"Yan'er, my Yan'er, Jiang Sheng hit you, how dare he..." Looking at the obvious five-finger mark on Song Qingyan's face, Madam Liu was heartbroken and glared angrily at Jiang Sheng.
Dressed in the attire of a first-rank noblewoman, she disregarded all decorum, strode forward, and kicked Jiang Sheng hard.
Jiang Sheng experienced severe chest pain.
All the old and new grudges against Liu surged up. "Liu, you old hag, once Yan'er and I are married, the first thing I'll do is kick your second branch out of the Yongning Marquis's mansion!"
"You…" Madam Liu trembled with rage, "Why aren't you throwing him out yet!"
She didn't want to see Jiang Sheng again.
He was already thinking of interfering in the Yongning Marquis's mansion before he was even married.
If Yan'er really marries him, that would be terrible!
"Liu, you old hag..."
Jiang Sheng resisted fiercely, but he was no match for several servants and guards.
The servants simply knocked Jiang Sheng unconscious and threw him out of the Marquis's mansion.
In the secluded courtyard, Song Qingyan's hair was disheveled.
She recounted everything Jiang Sheng had said to Madam Liu, then collapsed into Madam Liu's arms, sobbing, "Second Aunt, I won't marry him! I can't marry him!"
"We're not even married yet, and he's already plotting to steal my dowry. The Jiang family is practically an empty shell. Marrying him is worse than death!"
"If you don't marry, your second aunt will definitely not let you marry!" Madam Liu comforted her with heartache, but a ruthless glint was hidden in her eyes.
The Jiang family was not just in decline.
Whoever marries into such a poor family will suffer endless torment.
Anyone can suffer, but not her Yan'er!
"But Second Aunt, Jiang Sheng said that the Jiang family will send betrothal gifts to the Marquis's residence after the Dragon Boat Festival." Song Qingyan's eyes showed a hint of fear.
Today she witnessed Jiang Sheng's shamelessness.
If Jiang Sheng is like this, then Madam Jiang is probably even more so, not to mention Jiang Tong, who is in charge of the household.
They are all shameless.
What if they really do send betrothal gifts?
Song Qingyan couldn't imagine what kind of commotion the Jiang family would cause. "Second Aunt, could you let Song Qingning..."
Song Qingyan was furious.
When the Jiang family came to propose marriage that day, the marriage should have fallen to Song Qingning.
Unexpectedly, not only did she not get rid of the marriage, but Song Qingning also obtained an official position.
"Song Qingning was born to share your burdens. She should take over the marriage you didn't want, but not now." Madam Liu also wanted Song Qingning to give her official position to Tang'er.
The Jiang family's unseemly behavior.
If the marriage is arranged for Song Qingning now, the Jiang family will inevitably try to get their hands on those two official positions.
We should wait until Tang'er obtains an official position before making further plans.
"Yan'er, wait a little longer. The most important thing right now is the Dragon Boat Festival banquet," said Madam Liu.
Yan'er must seize this opportunity at the Dragon Boat Festival Palace Banquet!
……
On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, the capital city was bustling with unprecedented activity.
Families of standing or influence would hold banquets and invite relatives and friends to gather together.
The Yongning Marquis's Residence.
Xiang'er went to pick mugwort early in the morning. Madam Lu made mugwort figurines from the mugwort and asked Xiang'er to bring them to Song Qingning.
Song Qingning hung the mugwort figurine on the door, remembering this day in her past life.
In both past and present lives, Lady Liu, being a first-rank imperial consort, was invited to the Dragon Boat Festival banquet.
Song Qingyan, bearing the title of "Princess of Yongping County," also attended the palace banquet.
Even Song Mingtang was chosen by the emperor to enter the palace because of his resounding name "Mingyue Xian".
The mother and her two children were filled with boundless glory.
She and Lu were each lying in bed.
Because of the lotus seed soup with an increased dose of poison, Madam Lu fell seriously ill and was bedridden, while she was unable to get out of bed because her legs were crippled.
It wasn't until evening that Liu and her two children returned home.
She overheard the servants saying that Song Qingyan had performed exceptionally well at the palace banquet and had even won the Emperor's favor.
Lady Liu therefore rewarded her servants handsomely.
"Second Miss, Second Miss, people from the Meng family have arrived. They say they want to take you to the palace."
Xiang'er, who had left, hurriedly returned and happily reported to Song Qingning.
