“Grandmother, I…” Yu Jingjing still wanted to try to fight for it.
But as soon as she opened her mouth, she saw the Old Madam’s unkind eyes and quickly stopped, standing there indignantly.
Seeing her like this, Jiang Peilang felt even more of a headache.
He had always thought that Yu Jingjing was smart and capable.
But now it seemed…
His gaze couldn’t help but fall on Yu Jiaojiao, his eyes deepening.
It seemed that he still had to start with her.
Yu Jingjing saw this scene and felt very uncomfortable. Taking advantage of no one paying attention, she glared at Yu Jiaojiao fiercely.
“After all, it’s Princess Chang’s invitation, and there can be no mistakes. You’ve been married into the Wang mansion for so long, and you’ve done more than one or two things that are impolite. It’s fine if you lose face at home, but our Jing Wang mansion can’t afford to lose that face outside.” The Old Madam snorted coldly and directly decided the matter.
Yu Jiaojiao showed a satisfied smile and glanced at Yu Jingjing provocatively, which made Yu Jingjing very angry, and she silently clenched her fists.
“Alright, I should rest too, you may leave.” The Old Madam waved her hand, and then said to Yu Jiaojiao, “This matter cannot be mistaken, you must go back and prepare well, and don’t give people a reason to talk.”
“Mother, I understand.” Yu Jiaojiao nodded and retreated.
Before she had taken a few steps, she was stopped by Jiang Peilang, and her face immediately drooped.
She turned around and looked over, her expression impatient.
“Is there anything?”
“Jiaojiao.” Jiang Peilang’s eyes were gentle, as if he could drown Yu Jiaojiao.
Yu Jiaojiao only felt a chill and reminded in a cold voice, “Do I need to remind you again? I am your aunt now, is my maiden name something you can call?”
“Jiaojiao, I know you’re angry with me, do you have any misunderstandings about me? If I did something wrong, just tell me, I will compensate you.”
Jiang Peilang took a deep breath and continued, “You can’t be with Second Uncle because you’re angry with me, that will ruin your life.”
“Wait, I will definitely marry you in the future. The only wife in my heart has always been you.”
Yu Jingjing heard his words and looked displeased, but she didn’t dare to explode on the spot.
At this time, she couldn’t do anything that would make the other party angry again, and could only remember all the hatred on Yu Jiaojiao.
Yu Jiaojiao laughed angrily when she heard this, “Are you even disregarding ethics now? I am your aunt, if you don’t want your reputation, I still want mine.”
“Moreover, I have already said that I have nothing to do with you, not now, and even less likely in the future. Please don’t try to provoke the relationship between my husband and me.”
“I think my husband is very good. First, he has never had any private dealings with others, and his character is noble. He has fought on the battlefield to protect the safety of the people. Second, he is the Jing Wang, and his status is noble. No matter which angle you look at it from, he is much stronger than you.”
“I don’t know where you got the confidence to think that you can provoke the relationship between me and him.”
Yu Jiaojiao sneered and said directly, “If you continue to pester me, don’t blame me for exercising the duties of the Jing Wangfei to teach you a lesson.”
Jiang Peilang was greatly shocked after hearing these words. He looked at the person in front of him and sadly found that there was not a trace of lying on Yu Jiaojiao’s face.
Did she really have no intention of him?
Jiang Peilang couldn’t accept this result. He still missed the Yu Jiaojiao who followed behind him.
He still couldn’t believe that Yu Jiaojiao would have no intention of him.
In his eyes, Yu Jiaojiao’s indifference at this moment was just pretending.
He continued, “I know you’re still blaming me. Don’t worry, I will prove to you that I’m sincere. As for your sister, she’s just temporarily sitting in my wife’s position. I will marry you sooner or later.”
“Get out.” Yu Jiaojiao said coldly, “If you don’t want to be beaten to death by the guards.”
The expression on Yu Jiaojiao’s face couldn’t be faked, and Jiang Peilang didn’t dare to stay any longer, leaving behind a sentence, “I will definitely prove it to you,” and then left.
“Don’t be proud, my husband is just temporarily bewitched by you. The person he cares about the most is me, you wait.” Yu Jingjing left a harsh word and quickly left.
Yu Jiaojiao looked at their backs and sneered.
She was waiting here to see what they could do.
The next day at noon, Yu Jiaojiao felt tired after just finishing lunch, and drowsiness surged into her heart, so she wanted to lie down on the soft couch for a nap.
But she saw Chunlan walk in, looking helpless, “Miss, Madam is here, saying she wants to see you.”
Yu Jiaojiao sat up all of a sudden and quickly said, “Okay, let her in.”
After Madam Yu came in and sat down, Yu Jiaojiao quickly instructed the servants to bring tea and water, and then asked with a smile, “Is there anything you came here for today, Mother?”
“I heard that you’re going to Princess Chang’s banquet in two days?” Madam Yu asked cautiously, not daring to look Yu Jiaojiao in the eyes.
Yu Jiaojiao frowned immediately upon hearing this.
She had a bad feeling in her heart.
Sure enough, after Yu Jiaojiao nodded in acknowledgment, Madam Yu continued, “Then can you take your sister with you?”
This question was exactly what Yu Jiaojiao had expected, but when she heard it, she still felt a gasp of cold air, and it took her a long time to stabilize her emotions.
“Mother, do you know what you’re saying? Her mother was harming you a few days ago, and you’re here to speak for her. Have you forgotten what happened that day? If I hadn’t been there, you would have died at Father’s hands.” Yu Jiaojiao said with a look of disappointment.
“Your father wouldn’t really kill me, we are husband and wife after all.” Madam Yu smiled awkwardly, and then said, “Moreover, hasn’t the misunderstanding been cleared up? Concubine Su has also paid the price for what she did, and she knelt in my yard for half a day a few days ago, almost losing half her life.”
“It’s better to forgive and let live. Concubine Su gave your father a daughter after all, I can’t really kill her, right? As for Jingjing, no matter what, she is innocent, and her mother’s affairs shouldn’t involve her.”
“Jingjing married the son of a concubine and is having a hard time in the mansion. She is also disliked by the Old Madam because of her low birth. She is your sister after all, help her if you can.”
“If she can go to the banquet because of this and gain Princess Chang’s appreciation, her future life will be better, and she is your sister, and she can help you in the future. You have married into the Jing Wang mansion now, and we can’t help you much, you still have to rely on your sister.”
Madam Yu spoke for a long time, but didn’t wait for Yu Jiaojiao’s reply. She was shocked and quickly looked up.
She saw the disappointed look in the other party’s eyes and couldn’t help but ask, “Wh, what’s wrong?”
