Part 1: A Dream Within A Dream / Rebirth of Ill Fated Concubine

Chapter 068 Shameless

Lord Xia Hou's eyes were full of gloom: "I didn't tell the Eighth Prince about this. The Eighth Prince must have thought that this was done by the Fifth Prince. He was afraid to try to get close to my Xia Mansion. Even so, Jiang Ruan can't stay. Yan'er has repeatedly miscalculated in her hands. I want to see what kind of monster this person is. She is so vicious at such a young age!"

At noon the next day, Xia Yan took Jiang Susu to Ruan's residence.

Jiang Susu was wrapped in a white veil, covering her face and below tightly, revealing only a pair of eyes.

Xia Yan said: "Ruan'er, we are going to our grandfather's house tomorrow. You should pack up. Your grandmother hasn't seen you for a long time. I'm afraid she misses you very much."

Lian Qiao showed a disdainful look behind her. Xia Yan was talking affectionately, but after all, they were Jiang Susu's grandparents. What did it have to do with Jiang Ruan?

"Of course, it's good for my second sister and second brother to go out and relax after such a big thing happened." Jiang Ruan said with a smile. Hearing her words, Jiang Susu and Xia Yan's faces froze.

"Then I won't bother Ruan'er." Xia Yan said gently: "I'll go see your second brother. This matter may be framed by someone. He is also a child with a miserable life."

"Mother should persuade the second brother well. The second brother suffered a series of blows after failing the exam, which is really worrying." Jiang Ruan said with concern.

Xia Yan paused again and smiled reluctantly: "Your second brother will be very relieved if Ruan Niang is so concerned." After speaking, she stood up: "Mother will not stay for long, Susu, let's go."

After Xia Yan and her daughter left, Zi Su looked at their backs and said: "Miss, why do you suddenly have to go to Xiahou Mansion again? I'm afraid there will be some changes."

Although Zi Su has a good mind, she is not a stupid person. Jiang Ruan shook her head: "It's just that I want to take advantage of the power of Xiahou Mansion."

As she was talking, Luzhu pushed the door open and walked in: "Miss, Master Gu asked his people to send you a message saying that General Guan will return to Capital next month, and the matter of the eldest master may be resolved after a while."

Jiang Ruan's eyes lit up and she smiled slightly: "This is good news. Next month is not too late."

"If the eldest master comes back, the master will not treat you like this." Jiang Quan treats Jiang Ruan like this now because Jiang Ruan is just a daughter, and Jiang Xinzhi is the eldest son of the family after all. Now that Jiang Chao has lost another little finger (merit), Jiang Quan will pay more attention to Jiang Xinzhi, and Jiang Xinzhi will also protect Jiang Ruan from being bullied by others.

"That's hard to say." Jiang Ruan smiled coldly: "My elder brother and I are both thorns in the eyes of the people in the Jiang Mansion. Don't reveal any news about my elder brother to outsiders."

Zi Su and Lu Zhu looked at each other, but saw that Jiang Ruan had frowned slightly, and her expression was more solemn than ever before.

In the last life, when she was in the manor, she received the news that Jiang Xinzhi died in the battlefield. At that time, the status of the Xia family in the court was gradually rising. Now thinking about it carefully, there are hidden secrets everywhere. If it is said that Xia Yan cut the grass and rooted out Jiang Xinzhi for Jiang Chao's position, it is not impossible. Perhaps Jiang Quan even knew about it, but on the one hand, he had no father-son relationship with Jiang Xinzhi, and on the other hand, he also needed to rely on the power of the Xia family, so it is very likely that he just acquiesced.
