Married To The Male Lead's Father (Translation)

CHAPTER 92

The existence of the Wuyun Winery was like a tenacious cockroach; no matter what methods Prince Qin and Yang Shuqing employed, they still couldn't bring down the Wuyun Winery.

Eventually, Yang Shuqing had no choice but to visit Jiang Ningbao.

.............

Two days later, after sending the two little ones to Rongxi Hall, Jiang Ningbao returned to the main courtyard only to hear from Steward Zhao that Yang Shuqing requested an audience. Without hesitation, she refused, saying, "I won't see her!"

It wasn't long before Steward Zhao returned, looking quite displeased.

"Madam, Concubine Yang said that if you do not see her, she will not leave."

Jiang Ningbao tugged at the corner of her lips, a trace of coldness passing through her eyes, and said, "Ignore her."

Steward Zhao was not eager for the madam to meet the scheming Yang Shuqing. Seeing the madam's firm attitude, he was immediately pleased and hurriedly took his leave to relay the madam's message to Yang Shuqing.

After Butler Zhao left, Chunxi couldn't help but mutter, "Madam, Concubine Yang's visit surely can't be for anything good."

Jiang Lingbao took a sip of her tea and smiled "Yang Shuqing never visits without cause. She probably suspects that I'm the mastermind behind the Wuyun Brewery, which is why she's come."

Chunxi was left speechless.

Jiang Ningbao smiled. Yang Shuqing's intuition was quite accurate, but unfortunately, she had the wrong person. The real mastermind behind the scenes was her former husband, Xie Jingyi.

Speaking of Xie Jingyi, Jiang Ningbao always felt something was off about him.

The separation between Xie Jingyi and Yang Shuqing was too easy, especially since Yang Shuqing showed no lingering attachment and even went after Prince Qin.

Jiang Ningbao silently observed that without the "Jiang Ningbao" character, the romance didn't face any real obstacles and progressed too smoothly. Moreover, with Yang Shuqing having the experience of a previous life, she was not someone who would easily open her heart.

Even if Xie Jingyi had feelings for Yang Shuqing, they were not deep.

Ultimately, this led to them becoming enemies.

...............

At the gate of the Duke of Ding's residence, Yang Shuqing sat in her carriage. Upon hearing the servant's report, her face twisted momentarily, clearly enraged by Jiang Ningbao's refusal. She gritted her teeth and squeezed out a few words.

"Damn Jiang Ningbao!"

Beside her, Qian Rong and Qian Xin lowered their heads, trying to make themselves as inconspicuous as possible.

After Yang Shuqing's outburst, she didn't leave immediately. Her instincts were sharp; she was certain that the mastermind behind the Wuyun Tavern was someone from the Duke of Ding's residence.

Aside from Jiang Ningbao, she couldn't think of anyone else who would oppose her!

She knew Xie Jingyi wouldn't do such a thing, and the Duke of Ding was even less likely, so only Jiang Ningbao, who possessed the ancient winemaking technique from her previous life, remained as a suspect.

Yang Shuqing's beautiful face was twisted in fury.

Not seeing her... ignoring her—very well, she would make Jiang Ningbao regret it!

As the esteemed concubine of Prince Qin, Yang Shuqing found herself publicly embarrassed by Jiang Ningbao once again, deepening her grudge.

Unable to see Jiang Ningbao, Yang Shuqing decided to settle for seeing Xie Jingyi instead. The mere thought of Xie Jingyi reminded her of the inept and troublesome Second Madam Xie.
