"Ten …" "Ten years ago …" Jiang Yan blushed and also sat up.

Hearing this, Jiang Wan heaved a sigh of relief.

Jiang Yan was sixteen years old, and the person she saw ten years ago was only five years old!

"I was a child then!" Jiang Wan comforted Jiang Yan, "Maybe she has grown up a long time ago." And Liujie is so outstanding? "

"Then I don't like it either!" Jiang Yan actually hugged Jiang Wan and cried, "You don't even know how far Shaoxing is. Maybe once I marry you, I might never see you again in this life …"

Jiang Wan knew that what she said was true. In ancient times, transportation was extremely inconvenient, and she had already walked from Zhenjiang to the capital for more than half a month.

"Moreover, the fourth generation of the Qiao Family didn't split up. Everyone lived in a large courtyard and whenever they looked up, they were all aunts and uncles of their uncles and aunts, moreover, the Qiao Family had done many nefarious things over the years." Jiang Yan continued to cry as she leaned on Jiang Wan's shoulder, giving all the information she had on the Qiao Family to Jiang Wan.

The Qiao Family released their money and beat people to death, and their uncles and uncles fought for a girl. What kind of people would bet that they would lose money and use their ancestors' farms to pay their debts …

"It shouldn't be, right?" Even Jiang Wan was stunned when she heard this.

Madam Qiao had raised Jiang Yan for so many years, it was unreasonable for her to push Jiang Yan onto the fire brick bed when it was time to say 'kiss'.

"Who do you hear all this nonsense from? Second Aunt has always regarded you as a treasure, how can she possibly tell you about such an unreliable marriage? Don't scare yourself. " Jiang Wan furrowed her brows as she tried to persuade Jiang Yan. She was also curious in her heart: In this mansion, which family didn't have some despicable descendants to do shameful things, but everyone could hide it from them, and absolutely no one would talk about it on the surface.

Not to mention that the Qiao family had a former Minister of Revenue, who was now in charge of the household. Where could the chaos go?

Yet, Jiang Yan, a girl from a pavilion, knew so much. It was obvious that someone was purposely telling her about it.

"What do you want me to say?" "Our family has so many concubines that our mother brought from the Shaoxing Qiao family. Regarding the Qiao family's matters, they wouldn't be the same as us for three days and three nights." Jiang Yan sat up straight and wiped her tears as she said dejectedly.

Qiao family's concubine?

Could it be that the Qiao family deliberately let this news out?

There was no reason for Madame Qiao to be unmoved even after knowing about Jiang Yan.

"Don't worry about this first, it's all because of the three of you," Jiang Wan pulled Jiang Yan's hand, "Why don't I find out from the crown prince to help you find out what happened to the Qiao family." "If the rumors are true, I will have the Crown Prince speak up for you."

"Can you really get the crown prince to go and ask about my matter?" Jiang Yan excitedly held Jiang Wan's hand, "Only now do I find it hard to be a girl in a pavilion, it's really hard to do anything."

"I'll try!" Although Jiang Wan knew that Xiao Rui would definitely not reject her, she also didn't want to say too much.

From Jiang Yan's point of view, Jiang Wan had only just married into the Jin King's Manor, so it was normal that she couldn't decide on some matters.

Seeing Jiang Yan's crying face, she hurriedly called for the lilac beside her to get some water for Jiang Yan to wash her face. After the two of them slept for a while, they heard the sound of someone calling them to prepare to leave.

The people by Jiang Wan and Jiang Yan's side came in separately to wake them up, and after dressing themselves up, they got into their respective carriages.

Although they purposely chose to leave after the time had passed, the summer heat still hit them, causing the interior of the carriage to be like a steamer. The heat caused a thin layer of sweat to faintly appear on the tip of Jiang Wan's nose.

Xiao Rui said goodbye and rolled up the bamboo curtains on the window, letting the wind in.

Jiang Wan leaned against his side and asked about the Shaoxing Qiao family.

Xiao Rui frowned and waved at the bamboo curtain beside him. A person in janissary armor rode over, and after listening to Xiao Rui's orders, he quickly rode away.

Jiang Wan's gaze was a little curious as she chased after that person, but Xiao Rui seemed to be rather jealous of her, "Shouldn't all of your attention be on your husband? What is it about staring at other men? "

"How am I staring at that person!" Jiang Wan pretended to be angry as she glared at Xiao Rui Xuan, "I'm just a little curious about him, I keep having the feeling that his back is a little familiar."

"Aren't all of them similar in appearance?" On the other hand, Xiao Rui forcefully pulled Jiang Wan's gaze back, and pulled down the bamboo curtain on her side with a little guilt.

"I didn't even sleep well in the temple just now," Xiao Rui said as she hugged Jiang Wan, "Why don't you accompany your husband for a rest?"

"What?" You still want to sleep? " But Jiang Wan protested without thinking.

However, she didn't expect that Xiao Rui would start acting cute towards her and blink her jade-like eyes from time to time, causing Jiang Wan to lose all ability to resist.

Sigh, so be it. I can't do anything else in this carriage anyway.

Jiang Wan laid down obediently, looking at the little doll on the roof who was continuously fanning herself with a fan, and suddenly felt her eyelids grow heavy again.

By the time they had arrived at the Jin Residence's courtyard in the western mountains, it was already the end of the century and the horizon had long since been filled with fiery red clouds.

The people in the courtyard had long since received the news and arranged their rooms.

Jiang Wan followed Xiao Rui and moved into the Spring and Flowers Garden, while Madam Qiao and Jiang Yan arranged for them to stay in the Qiu Residence.

As soon as Jiang Wan stepped into the Spring and Flowers Garden, Xiao Rui covered her eyes with his hands. He smiled and said, "Let's go. I'll take you to see our bridal chamber."

When Jiang Wan thought of how he had joked with her about having a new room in the courtyard, she closed her eyes and obediently allowed Xiao Rui to bring her there. She didn't know if it was true or not.

After Xiao Rui Xuan sent her away, she saw that the room in front of her had a red curtain and a red candle flickering in it. It was exactly the same as the room she had gotten in at the Jin Family Residence's bamboo garden.

Jiang Wan was slightly surprised.

Previously, when Xiao Rui mentioned that she wanted to borrow Xia Yi's arm for a couple of days, she had thought that she was going to send Xia Yi out to work. After all, Xia Yi's skills were so good that it would be a waste to stay by her side all day.

He didn't expect that Xiao Rui Xuan would actually send him to the West Mountains to set up the bridal chamber.

That day, she really thought that it was just Xiao Rui casually mentioning it. She didn't expect him to really remember this matter.

"There's only one bed in our room. I told them to find one in the storeroom. It's covered with red silk. It looks pretty much the same." Xiao Rui smiled proudly as she stood beside Jiang Wan.
