Expensive marriage: The concubine is begging for peace again today

Chapter 21
"This clay figurine really looks like it." Zhuang Qingchan stood in front of a clay figurine booth.

Seeing Zhuang Nianjun staring at him eagerly, Jiang Changning asked with a smile, "Do you want a little clay figurine like myself?"

"Can you?" Zhuang Nianjun asked timidly.

Before she could form an impression of her father, Zhuang Jiwen died of illness.

The Liao family stayed in the dealer's house, went deep and kept simple, lived cautiously, and taught his daughter to have a calm temperament.

"Of course, as long as you like it, my cousin will buy it for you." Jiang Changning patted her head.

Zhuang Nianyun smiled happily and bent his eyebrows, revealing his left cheek with a small dimple, extremely cute.

It takes a little time to make the clay figurines, and a few people stood by the stall and waited.

At this time, a group of people came from the other side of the street. The person in the middle was wearing a silver-white embroidered cloud pattern costume, with a dignified appearance, sharp facial features and sharp outlines.

He looked left and right, and he didn't seem to have much interest in the things sold by the stalls on both sides.

The people around him didn't know what they were talking about, so he nodded from time to time.

When the group of people walked past Jiang Changning and the others, the man in the middle suddenly stopped and walked towards Jiang Changning.

Zhuang Jichang and Zhuang Jisheng stopped him, and asked at the same time: "What advice, Young Master?"

The guards sent by the restaurant immediately moved closer when they saw this.

The man asked politely: "I'm Qin Zhaoxi, I wonder which mansion you two belong to?"

Hearing the man's name, Jiang Changning raised his eyes and glanced at him.

Qin Zhaoxi, the empress dowager's nephew, the emperor's cousin, and the son of the prince of Xingzhou County, is also the object of many girls in Beijing.

"Mr. Qin Xiaojun, we are from the family of Zhuang Zuo Shilang of Hubu." Zhuang Jichang cupped his hands.

"You guys are standing here, but what do you need help with?" When Qin Zhaoxi said this, the people around him seemed to have seen a ghost.

How did the always arrogant little princess suddenly become so approachable?

"My little niece bought a clay figurine, we'll wait here, there's nothing to bother the little duke." Zhuang Jichang said with a smile.

Only then did Qin Zhaoxi notice the clay figurine booth next to him, and smiled. If it wasn't for this booth, he would have missed this beauty.

"These are all your younger sisters?" Qin Zhaoxi asked.

"Yes." Zhuang Jichang did not introduce the names of the girls.

This is the street, so it's not suitable to say the girls' boudoir names carelessly.

Qin Zhaoxi didn't want to ask too many questions, so he glanced at Jiang Changning and said with a smile, "Don't bother me."

Not long after he took the people away, the clay figurine was finished.

After giving the copper plate, Jiang Changning and his party continued to wander the streets.

"It smells so good." Zhuang Qingchan took a deep breath.

Zhuang Jisheng looked around, "Someone is selling magnolia strings."

Everyone walked over, and there were strings of magnolia flowers in the small baskets, which were fragrant.

Jiang Changning took a bunch and put it on his hand, suddenly felt someone looking at her, looking around, her eyes met a person on the second floor of the teahouse across the street.

The face is like a crown jade, and the bearing is graceful, just like Jin Wang He Lianyu.

Seeing that she saw him, King Jin raised the corners of his lips, smiled brightly, and nodded slightly.

Jiang Changning remained expressionless, and calmly looked away, took two bunches of magnolia flowers, and wrapped them around Zhuang Nianjun's bun, "We are a sweet baby."

Zhuang Nianyun was happy, and once again burst out laughing.

Jiang Changning's reaction amused King Jin, and his smile deepened. She was really a gentle and kind girl.

If Zhuang Yaozong knew King Jin's evaluation of Jiang Changning, he would have scoffed.

The person who can order someone to beat him black and blue, and let him soak in the well water overnight, is a gentle and kind person?
After that night, Zhuang Yaozong feared Jiang Changning like a tiger.

Not to mention asking him to marry Jiang Changning, he didn't even want to go in front of Jiang Changning.

The old lady Huang San was still regretting, "It's good that we can make a marriage agreement before Yi's decree comes down."

"Grandmother, stop talking. Even if Jiang Changning isn't a beautiful woman, I won't be engaged to her." Zhuang Yaozong didn't want to be beaten again, and soaking in the well water didn't taste good.

The old lady Huang San thought that her grandson disliked Jiang Changning as an orphan, "Your child, although Jiang Changning is an orphan, she has won the favor of the queen mother, let alone the Jiang family..."

"Grandmother! Do you want me to die?" Zhuang Yaozong shouted.

The old lady Huang San was startled, and asked blankly, "How did you say that?"

"You remember the day I came back, that's what she asked to do."

"How is it possible?" Old lady Huang San didn't believe it.

"Will a person who can win the Queen Mother's favor be someone who has no means? Grandma, she is by no means so weak and bully as she looks. It's better not to provoke her."

The old lady Huang San was still dubious, but Zhuang Yaozong firmly refused to listen to her.

The cow can't force its head down without drinking water.

Besides, Jiang Changning is already a beautiful girl, even if the old lady Huang San doesn't want to give up, she can only give up her idea of ​​beating Jiang Changning.

Back home, Zhuang Nianjun chatted with Liao Shi and described every detail of the street.

Looking at the excited flushed daughter, Liao became more grateful to Jiang Changning, "Jun'er, do you like Biaogu Ning?"

"I like it!" Zhuang Nianyun said loudly.

It seemed that the louder she spoke, the more she could show how much she liked Jiang Changning.

Liao smiled, with doting eyes, "If you like it, go and play with Ning Biaogu more often."

She lived like a dry well, but she couldn't let her daughter live like her, living such a lifeless life.

The daughter is still so young, and she still has a bright future.

On the Dragon Boat Festival, the girls played and rested for a day.

The next day, I still followed Aunt Peng to learn etiquette and rules.

The days are in the study, day by day, and in the middle of May, there are more beautiful girls coming to Beijing one after another.

The Zhuang family also welcomed two girls to participate in the draft, one is Xie Baoyin, the granddaughter of Mrs. Zhuang's sister, and the other is Lu Xiuju, the daughter of Xie Baoyin's uncle.

It was Xie Baoyin's elder brother Xie Zhang and Lu Xiuju's uncle Lu Pingxu who sent Xie Baoyin and Lu Xiuju to Beijing.

When they came, Jiang Changning and the four girls from the Zhuang family were still learning how to behave in the open flower courtyard.

It was Zhuang Zike who was celebrating in front of Mrs. Zhuang. Hearing the notification, his reaction was: "I wonder if these two younger sisters are beautiful?"

Although Jiang Changning is beautiful, he can be old-fashioned and follow the rules everywhere, which makes Zhuang Jike very displeased.

The looks of Xie Baoyin and Lu Xiuju did not disappoint Zhuang Jike.

The tall and slender Xie Baoyin, with almond eyes and peach cheeks, has a radiant complexion, wearing an apricot red dress, she is graceful and graceful, like the most delicate flower in spring.

Lu Xiuju, who is wearing a pink and blue embroidered skirt, is young and has not yet grown up, but her complexion is crystal clear, with a pair of timid deer eyes, she is also a beautiful little beauty.

"Hello, two sisters." Zhuang Zike only had two daughters in his eyes, and he didn't notice the burly Xie Zhang and the handsome and shy young Lu Pingxu.

Xie Baoyin smiled generously at Zhuang Zike.

Lu Xiuju looked at him timidly, and hid behind Xie Baoyin.

　The two important female counterparts.
