113 He’s Embarrassing
In Zhao Yingying’s dream, the mayor in her previous life had also returned to Jing City. However, he only returned after Zhao Panpan had outlived the crown prince’s wife and successfully ascended the throne to become the new crown prince’s wife. Oh, that was not it.
After the emperor abdicated and the crown prince ascended the throne, he summoned the troops of Happy Town back. After returning, he gave the mayor a high position and a generous salary. However, in just half a month, the mayor committed suicide. No one knew why.
“I brought you some pets. I’ll get the kitchen staff to help you clean them up. Try them. They taste like the ones I used to eat when I was young.”Jiang Xi waved her hand and ordered the servants to carry a large basket in. A huge pair of wings could be vaguely seen.
Zhao Yingying felt that the wings looked a little familiar. It was as if Zhao Panpan had secretly transported them to the Zhao family’s courtyard and then transported them back to the Jing City with great fanfare, saying that they were gyrfalcons that had been raised here.
“How is your fourth brother, Jiang Si, doing after his marriage?” Zhao Yingying could not help but ask Jiang Xi while her elder brother, Zhao Ruifeng, was not back yet.
Jiang Xi did not even raise her head. “Good, very good. Fourth sister-in-law is a good person. She said that she can’t help fourth brother to have more children on her own, so she wants to find a few more female confidants for fourth brother.” Although she said that, Jiang Xi felt that Song Yun must be planning to enjoy the happiness of having more women. After all, if Jiang Si married them, they would be with her every day, so it was convenient for Song Yun to enjoy her happiness. Therefore, it was useless no matter how many concubines Jiang Si married. He would not be able to enjoy them at all. They would all be slept with by Song Yun.
“Does your fourth brother likes Song Yun a lot?” Zhao Yingying paused and asked suspiciously. Why was the situation so different from what she had expected? The news had spread all over Jiang prefecture that Song Yun did not like men but preferred women, right?
“Yes, the two of them go back to their room early every day to sleep. The next day, fourth brother limped out. Sometimes, he did not even dare to sit on a stool. My mother told them to have more restraint in their lives.” Jiang Xi lowered her voice and said in a mysterious tone. At this moment, the two of them were so excited talking about Jiang Si and Song Yun that they did not even notice that someone had come in.
Zhao Ruifeng stood at the door, his ears red. Why did he feel that Jiang Xi knew more than he did?
“Do you think that fourth brother rushed to tJing City after getting married because he couldn’t satisfy Song Yun?” Jiang Xi had an idea.
“Cough, cough!” Zhao Ruifeng almost choked on his saliva. His face was red, and he did not have the calmness and composure of a general at all. The most depressing thing was that Jiang Xi and Zhao Yingying both noticed him, but instead of being embarrassed, they looked at him strangely, as if they thought he was embarrassing himself. These two knew a little too much, right?
Zhao Ruifeng suddenly felt that it was not a good thing to leave his sister, Zhao Yingying, in the Happy Village. Looking at her appearance, he did not know how many bad things she had learned. Zhao Ruifeng’s scalp was numb, and he felt very sorry for his dead mother.
“Jiang Xi, Zhao Yingying, you’re both girls, so you can’t do this. You’re still young. Don’t learn from some vulgar people. Next month, the emperor will summon me back to Jing City. Jiang Xi, you’ll come with me.” They might get really get engaged soon, so Zhao Ruifeng looked at Jiang Xi deeply and thought to himself that his luck was still quite good.
Zhao Yingying looked at Zhao Ruifeng’s embarrassed expression and looked at him with disdain. If she had not intervened, her brother would only get a beauty in his next life!
“You don’t have to worry about the dowry. I still have a mansion in Jing City, but I can’t stay there for the time being. I haven’t moved out of the family yet, and the Zhao family has a rule that a man who hasn’t moved out can’t live alone.” Zhao Ruifeng paused, a little worried on his face, “I have a lot of family members. It’s not easy to get along with my father and stepmother. When grandfather gets a son in his old age, he’ll probably take care of the child wholeheartedly. I’m afraid you won’t be used to it when you first enter Jing City. However, don’t worry, I won’t let anyone bully you. Most of the people in the Zhao family were scheming, so he could only put in more effort to protect Jiang Xi.
Thinking of this, Zhao Ruifeng comforted Jiang Xi, “My bad luck seems to have eased a little. You don’t have to be afraid of me. However, I can’t tell anyone about this. When I was providing disaster relief, the snow stopped wherever I went, and the emperor even put me in an important position because of this. This year, I don’t have to stand at the door exposed to the wind and sun, and the emperor even plans to give me an official rank.”
Zhao Ruifeng was a little excited. He did not care about being promoted, but this was the first time in his life that he felt lucky! This was the first time! The feeling of being remembered by the heavens was awesome!
