Married To The Male Lead's Father

Chapter Nineteen

The events that happened on Princess Rui's Peach Blossom Banquet made people secretly paid more attention to Duke Ding Residence's movements.

The news of Butler Zhao visiting Changning Count Residence to rescind the engagement was spread by some people purposely. Now, the whole capital was talking about this and without Jiang Ningbao knowing this, she gained a lot of pity.

It was obviously not her fault but she had her engagement rescinded by the guy.

This Changning Count Residence's fourth miss was too pitiful.

There were people who felt pity and there were people who took this chance to condemn another. Yang Shuqing being the female lead naturally made a lot of females jealous. Along with the growth of her reputation, the people being jealous of her also increased drastically, growing stubble after stubble.

Xie Jingyi who had a very good reputation also got himself dissed by a lot of people.

"Jiang fourth miss is really pitiful."

"Jiang fourth miss is also unlucky. She's done nothing wrong but her engagement is annulled. I wonder how attractive Yang Oldest Miss is or is it Heir Xie who is too heartless?"

"Don't speak recklessly. Duke Ding's heir annul the engagement because of responsibility. I heard that Duke Ding's heir wants to adopt Jiang fourth miss as little sister and enter the clan genealogy book. Actually, turning from fiancee to little sister is not bad."

"As if! What kind of 'being responsible' is this? Don't insult the word 'responsibility'. In my opinion, this Xie heir is also a heartless and merciless person. Who knows what kind of drug Oldest Miss Yang fed him? It's just Jiang fourth miss is pitiful."

"Actually, being the oldest miss of Duke Ding Residence is not bad."

"What do you mean by 'not bad'? Jiang fourth miss is an outsider. Even if she enters the Xie clan genealogy book, it might not be bad at first, but who can guarantee what happens after she got married?"

"I have inside news. Oldest Miss Yang and Xie Heir knew each other from a long time ago. Oldest Miss Yang falling into the pond at Princess Rui's Peach Blossom Banquet is actually a calculated plan."

"What? Really?"

"It's true. There are only a few people who know this."

"The truth is actually like this. Xie Heir already has plans on revoking the engagement. Jiang fourth miss is so pitiful, being schemed by Oldest Miss Yang and Xie Heir like this."

"I even thought that Oldest Miss Yang is a smart and wise person, comparable to men! I never thought that she is a scheming person and shamelessly schemed to get another girl's fiance."

Jiang Ningbao who stayed in the residence did not know how wild the rumor circulated. The female lead Yang Shuqing and the male lead Xie Jingyi were condemned a lot while Jiang Ningbao became the person everyone pitied.

If she knew, she would only laugh like a pig.

It was useless to condemn the main characters. The more they were condemned, the brighter it would be when they washed themselves white.

Anyuan Marquis Residence

Yang Shuqing sat in front of the make-up desk. She glanced at the reflection of a beautiful girl on the mirror and her heart felt sweet. She never thought that the powerful Duke Ding Heir in her past life would cancel his engagement with Jiang Ningbao for her.

"Jiang fourth miss, I really did not steal your fiance on purpose."

Yang Shuqing murmured and her eyes flashed with hesitation. In the end, she rose and walked to the long desk to write a letter and instructed her trusted servant girl Qian Bi to send it.

"Qian Bi, give this letter to Duke Ding's heir."

Qian Bi took the letter and respectfully retreated.

Yang Shuqing looked at the incense burner with a complicated gaze. She admitted that she had fallen for Duke Ding Heir, but she had not avenged those people in her past life yet. She had not cruelly enacted her vengeance against King Jin and Queen Jin. How could she marry another?

But letting her give up on Xie Jingyi.....She could not.

She also wanted to be pampered by another and had the warmth that only belonged to her and no other woman. Only her.

This kind of feeling, only Xie Jingyi could give her.

In her past life, he only had Jiang Ningbao and she became the target of admiration from other ladies in the capital.

Yang Shuqing was one of them.

In the years being in the Cold Palace, she had imagined many times if she had not stubbornly wanted to marry over as a noble concubine, cefei, would the ending be different?

Even if she could not marry someone like Xie Jingyi who was loyal, she still could become the legal wife.

She wanted to proudly and magnificently marry over, becoming the legal wife.

This had become Yang Shuqing's obsession.

This life, Yang Shuqing changed her unruly behavior and was not blinded by love anymore. She step by step snatched the initiative and disguised as a man to gather power outside.

But the rumor outside was very noisy outside and there were a lot of people hired to condemn her. This must be related to her dad's concubines and the concubine-born sisters. At this moment, she could not do anything to become the spotlight. That would only make her reputation become worse.

Only Xie Heir could do something.

But she would not do nothing. Yang Shuqing's eyes darkened and a bright light flashed through her eyes. A moment later, she decided to meet Jiang Ningbao and apologize to her.

She did what she thought and she called another trusted servant called Qian Rong. She gave her another letter and instructed something in a low voice. Qian Rong then left quickly.
