Chapter 102.4: Hong Yuan Shows Off His Riding Skill, Jing Wans Warning

Did she not know it was lively outside? Did she not know the waves Jing Wan caused? She knew. These two darn old hags went out in turns, and then returned to vividly tell the other the things theyve heard from the mouths of the Grand Elder Princess Manors servants. But in reality, how was it not just for her to hear.

Like how Luo Jing Wan was such and such impressive, such and such intelligent, such and such likable, and also how she provided opportunities for ten young gentlemen, and how many people were grateful to her, and how many people wanted to have her married back as a wife, daughter-in-law, or granddaughter-in-law. The most famous young ladies in the capital were all thoroughly suppressed by her. How were these not what Luo Jing Ying once thought of. She repeatedly imagined herself again and again standing at the highest position, receiving the n.o.ble personages high opinion, receiving all the prestigious families young masters pursuit, and being carefully cherished by them. She dreamed of herself receiving all the other n.o.ble young ladies admiration and envy, yet each and every one could only fawn over her, win her favor, and flatter her, and just one word from her can decide others glory or disgrace, life or death. She laughed very happily, very very happily, but after waking up, that lonely little courtyard made her want to go crazy.

She worked hard in studying, studying many many things, and step by step, little by little, in a few years time, it finally was able to let her have a bit of fame in the capital. Even if she didnt want to admit, this bit of reputation of hers, in reality, was just in the mid-lower stratum. That most elite circle of the capital, she wasnt even able to reach the doorsteps. And Luo Jing Wan? Someone who didnt know anything, just a s.l.u.t that liked to play with mud and grow flowers, in less than a month after coming to the capital, ended up befriending the person that shed spent all her efforts trying to befriend yet was unable to. But that person, very soon, ruined her appearance, ha, see, Luo Jing Wan was just a curse. She was so happy, and further because she will very soon be able to enter Rui Qinw.a.n.g Manor, she was even more happy. But this good mood didnt last very long. She not only failed in scheming against Luo Jing Wan, she even sunk herself deeply into the mud instead. And this s.l.u.t, with just this bit of effort, soared into the skies, accomplis.h.i.+ng what others all were unable to accomplish in several years or even a lifetime.

And it was her that had given Luo Jing Wan this opportunity; all of this was given by her!

This glory clearly shouldve been hers, hers!

Luo Jing Ying screamed at Jing Wan with her m.u.f.fled voice, her eyes reddening with blood, just like a wild animal that was about to lose its rationality.

This kind of her really made even her own servant girls and wet nurse hiding outside quite astonished. Why did their miss become like an evil spirit?

Jing Wan rather just watched on very calmly. Have to say, once this person starts going mad, really cant be called a person anymore.

Luo Jing Ying, this kind of person, unless she truly wakes up on her own, otherwise, no medicine can save her.

Jing Wan had never intended to do anything to her anyways. There naturally was grandmother to take care of her. If she were to do anything herself, might even dirty her own hands. Right now, just provoking her a little was enough, and also, after returning, tell third branchs Huan Yiniang, that deng wen drum has someone guarding it, and not just able to be striked by anyone that wanted to strike it. If her third uncle really does divorce his wife, even if shes unable to become the main wife, she can still let the third branch rear court never have another female master, no?

Fourth miss isnt too well right now, you all take good care of her. There are many n.o.ble personages in the Grand Elder Princess Manor, dont offend anyone.

Yes, third miss dont worry, well definitely watch fourth miss well.

Jing Wan nodded, and then looked to Luo Jing Ying, If a young lady were to come out with a reputation of being mentally deranged, what kind of consequences do you think there will be? Thats why, Luo Jing Ying, wake up a little, dont do anything foolish. Jing Wan reached out and pulled out the cloth in Luo Jing Yings mouth.

If a young lady were to go insane, then the family will have grounds to lock her up for a lifetime. Even if she were to look like a normal person on normal days, there still wouldnt be anyone that would come to propose marriage. Who wouldnt worry about marrying a lunatic that might go crazy at anytime. By biting the tip of her tongue until blood came out, Luo Jing Ying finally was able to restrain her bitter rage. Seeing Jing Wan walking out the door, she grinded her teeth and lowly cursed, Luo Jing Wan, you b.i.t.c.h, you deserve a horrible death, you deserve a horrible death

Her words, just like that wisp of breeze, lightly blew past Jing Wans ears. And after awhile, it wont leave behind a single trace.

Jing Wan stood outside the door, looking to the three that served Luo Jing Ying, You three, failed to look after your master, and will be demoted to rough labor servants. After returning, go to the outer courtyard yourself to clean and sweep.

Ones that were able to become personal servants naturally werent idiots that didnt understand what was said. Although on the surface it was demoting them, but in reality, Jing Wan was instead saving them. If Jing Wan doesnt punish them, then after returning, according to Liu-s.h.i.+s personality, even if they dont get beaten to death by the rod, they will still get directly sold off. The three hurriedly knelt down, This servant is willing to accept the punishment.

Jing Wan saving them was out of sincerity, but in Luo Jing Yings eyes, she was just pretending to be a good person, and even won over the people at her side. Then, Jing Wan will just tell her clearly to her face, I precisely did this, what do you want to do? If you want to curse, then just curse, aside from being able to curse a few words, what else can you do?

In any case, so long as these three have the least bit of intelligence, without waiting for her third aunt to have time to free her hands, they will have already rushed to the outer courtyard. That way, once Liu-s.h.i.+ has spare time, she still can only watch helplessly. After all, she wasnt the head of the rear court, nor the daughter-in-law in charge of the manor. She at most can only manage her own courtyards people and affairs. Other places, she was unable to interfere.

Exiting the guest courtyards gates, Jing Wan saw Sun Yi Jia waiting there for her and smiled, Why is big sister Jia here?

Arent I waiting here for you? Done taking care of things? She nonchalantly swept a glance inside.

Theres nothing that needs to be taken care of, just said a few words.

Sun Yi Jia had witnessed the power of little sister Wans few words before. On normal days, it naturally was good, but under special circ.u.mstances, to people that were targeted by her, she could only say to them, good luck!

During the formal banquet, the female seats were naturally in the inner courtyard, and the male seats in the outer courtyard.

So the guest courtyards for the female guests were naturally also in the inner courtyard. This place naturally wasnt very far away either.

Speaking of which, this banquet wasnt something that can start by just saying so. Thats why, being a little late actually wasnt that big of a deal. The two happily chatted as they walked.

Afterwards, Jing Wan got intercepted midway again.

The people that intercepted, although one was an unfamiliar servant girl, the other was Luo Pei Shans servant boy.

Third miss, old master is asking for you to come to the outer courtyard.

Are you sure grandfather is looking for me? It wasnt that Jing Wan suspected something, but rather, her grandfather probably wouldnt look for her during meal time.

That servant boy smiled, As expected, it cant be kept from third miss. Actually, its Elder Jiang and Jiang-fuma.

Fine, Jing Wan understood, these two both couldnt wait any longer. Whatever, this kind of feeling, she understood.

Alright, then lets head over. What about you big sister Jia, do you want to go together with me?

No need, with you present, Ill only get neglected, not going.

Alright, then you go take your seat at the banquet, my future sister-in-law. Jing Wan smilingly replied.

Sun Yi Jia was both embarra.s.sed and angry, angrily wanting to pinch her, This mouth of yours really cant lose out at all.

Jing Wan dodged her claws, and then left without turning back.

In order to not run into others, Jing Wan was directly led to Jiang-fumas outside study.

Well then, the people waiting inside, apart from her own grandfather, it was more than just the two that the servant boy mentioned. Aside from Sir Diwu, there was also the head of the cabinet ministers, Ruan Rui Zhong. Speaking of which, Cabinet Minister Jiang, because someone in his family had marriage connection with someone of Rui Qinw.a.n.gs faction, he was tacitly a.s.sumed to be someone of Rui Qinw.a.n.gs faction, but in actuality, he himself was also rather neutral. Aside from the matters of his own job, he didnt like meddling in other peoples business too much. When he had nothing to do, he would just play the qin, research some qin scores, go drink with old friends, and occasionally would even, on his days off, carry his birdcage out for a stroll. Thats why, it can be said, the people gathered here, including the no official post Jiang-fuma, all belonged to the neutral faction.
