Chapter 574 Extra Thank You Banquet (41)
Jiang Wantang instantly subsided and waved to Madam Xie, who was approaching anxiously, "Grandma, I'm here!"
After saying that, he walked towards them.
Madam Xie and Madam Hou hurried forward, took Jiang Wantang's hand, looked around, and asked worriedly, "Tang girl, are you okay?"
After seeing that she was unharmed, he was finally relieved, his face still showing panic. "When I heard that the women in the courtyard fell into the water, your grandmother and mother were almost scared to death. Fortunately, you are okay."
Jiang Wantang felt warm in her heart. She held their hands and said sincerely, "It's my fault, my granddaughter-in-law. I made my grandmother and mother worry..."
Madam Xie smiled and patted her hands: "It's nothing bad, as long as Tang girl is okay."
At this time, the noble lady of the Qi family, who was still soaking in the water, saw that Old Madam Xie and Madam Hou were protecting Jiang Wantang like this. Her eyes were full of resentment and she had to swallow the words that were on the tip of her tongue.
Not to say that there is no evidence, it is just her guess. Even if there is evidence, with Madam Xie and Madam Hou present, she will not be able to do anything to Jiang Wantang today.
Sure enough, marrying into a wealthy family is different.
Even a country girl can ride on the head of the noble lady of the Qi family.
However, what made her even more uncomfortable than jealousy and resentment was that after this incident, the eyes of those young masters from aristocratic families looking at her became contemptuous.
Princess Rongyi frowned as she looked at the noble ladies who had fallen into the water. She quickly ordered the maids to assist the palace guards to pull them up one by one.
The ladies all had dirty makeup, messy hair and clothes, and looked in a dishevel... They had no image or manners at all. Especially those wearing light-colored dresses, if they fell into the water, it would not just be a matter of manners.
Princess Rongyi frowned at this and silently excluded all these people from the list of potential daughter-in-law.
Li Wanqing was wearing a moon-white long dress, which was too shameful to look at at the moment. She was extremely ashamed and angry. She looked eagerly at Madam Xie and Madam Hou who were approaching, but found that neither of them noticed her. Her heart and eyes were full of worry about Jiang Wantang.
At that time, in the attic.
Zhao Yi walked to Xie Zhiyan's side, opened his eyes wide, and smacked his lips repeatedly: "Is this the obedient little wife you mentioned?!"
Xie Zhiyan raised the corners of his lips slightly, and a proud look appeared on his cold brows: "Yeah."
"It's so beautiful even when you hit someone, how charming!"
Zhao Yi immediately looked at him in astonishment...
He wanted to say: Brother, are you really possessed?!
But he didn't dare.
So, when the words came to my lips, I changed them to: "You call this a little wife?!"
Xie Zhiyan smiled and said casually, "What's the problem?"
Zhao Yi was suddenly speechless.
Afterwards, he asked, "Ayan, she's acting so recklessly outside, are you really not going to do anything about it?"
"Why should I care?" Xie Zhiyan curled his lips slightly, but his eyes were a little colder. "Even if she doesn't take action, I won't let go of those who dare to gossip about her."
"Besides, she always does things in moderation."
Zhao Yi was stunned again and was speechless.
"If she hadn't intervened this time, how could your blind date have been ruined so easily?" Xie Zhiyan said, turning his head to look at him with a smile.
Zhao Yi's pupils suddenly shrank, and he realized something instantly. He almost jumped up in excitement.
After the incident of the noble ladies falling into the water, his mother would definitely reconsider the matter of choosing a husband.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yi happily put his arm around Xie Zhiyan's shoulders and pulled him to play chess.
At this time, Jiang Wantang returned to the flower hall and found that Yun Shang, who said she was going to urinate, had not come back yet, and she couldn't help but feel worried.
The backyard garden of the Princess's Mansion is huge. Could she have gotten lost?
Thinking of this, Jiang Wantang found an excuse, said something to Old Madam Xie, and left the flower hall to look for someone in the garden.
After a cup of tea...
In the attic, Zhao Yi and Xie Zhiyan were playing chess.
While the two were chatting and laughing, the secret guard of the Princess's Mansion suddenly appeared and whispered a few words in Zhao Yi's ear.
Zhao Yi's pupils suddenly widened, and he looked at Xie Zhiyan in panic and said, "Ayan, something terrible has happened. Something happened to your little wife..."
"Crack——!"
Before he finished speaking, the black jade chess piece in Xie Zhiyan's hand instantly turned into powder, and his smiling eyes suddenly turned a terrifying blood red.
"where?"
Zhao Yi was stunned by the look: "The rockery in the garden."
As soon as the words came out, the dark purple figure in front of him flashed and jumped directly from the attic. Only the jade pendant on his waist made a crisp sound of shattering at the speed.
Zhao Yi was startled and quickly jumped down and followed closely.
At that time, behind the rockery in the garden.
Yun Shang's clothes were a little messy. She straightened her clothes and crawled out of the grass. There was a bright red slap mark on her face.
On the gravel road nearby, a man in a gorgeous blue suit was lying on the ground, his face bruised and bloody.
The man glared fiercely at the stunning woman in a red-gold dress standing before him, gritting his teeth and saying, "Bitch! I am Qi Feng, the third son of Duke Qi. How dare you attack me? Are you courting death?!"
Jiang Wantang slowly wiped the blood from her fingertips with a handkerchief, the corners of her lips slightly raised, her eyes cold, as if she was looking at a dead person.
Qi family?
The Qi family again?!
First there was the beastly Qi Gui who shocked the capital, then there was the sinister and domineering Qi family lady, and now here comes the lustful and audacious Qi Feng...
There is really not a single good person in the Qi family!
Chifeng spat out blood foam mixed with broken teeth, and stared at Jiang Wantang's stunning face with sinister eyes like a venomous snake: "How is it, are you scared?"
"That bitch Yun Shang is originally a prostitute. It's her honor that my master has taken a fancy to her!"
"If you can't bear to see her humiliated, why don't you come and play with me..."
"You had a great time... I won't hold you accountable~"
As he finished speaking, his eyes revealed naked greed. He struggled to stand up, and his brocade blue robe had already been worn to tatters by the gravel.
Jiang Wantang stepped directly on his spine, and the soles of her shoes embroidered with gold thread made his spine crackle.
Chifeng wanted to scream out in pain, but Jiang Wantang blocked her mouth with the bloody handkerchief he had used to wipe his hands.
His eyes were bloodshot, but Jiang Wantang smiled, a charming smile that made people shudder. She said, "So what if it's Duke Qi?"
"If you dare to touch my people, I will make you live—worse—than death!"
After saying that, in front of Chifeng's astonished eyes, Jiang Wantang smiled and raised her leg to kick him over. Then, she gathered her inner strength and kicked him hard in the groin, sending him flying...
His back slammed heavily against the uneven rockery, making a few crisp "cracks!" sounds. Along with the sound of falling gravel, Chifeng fell to the ground like a rag doll, and his bright red blood dyed the grass beneath him red...
This whole scene fell into the eyes of Xie Zhiyan and Zhao Yi who were coming quickly.
