"Madam, I'm afraid it's not appropriate." Old servant Yang toughened her scalp and spoke. After the madam was attacked by ominous energy, her personality would change without pattern and became hard to serve.

Old servant Yang did not dare to tell the madam what happened in Changing Count Residence lately and only said that Sir Zhang Zhan climbed high and got engaged to Ministry of Civil Personnel's second daughter.

Madam was very happy about this. At that day, she did not throw a tantrum to torture the servants.

Now, the third young master and fourth lady came to visit and the fourth lady carried with her the guards sent by Duke Ding to protect her. The madam wanted to kick her out like this and did not even try superficial acts.

How could old servant Yang not worry?

"How is it not appropriate? I, an elder, am sick and it's normal I can't meet juniors. Who dare to say I'm unreasonable?" First Madam Zhang's gaze was cold and gloomy as she glared at old servant Yang.

Old servant Yang silently wiped her cold sweat and spoke 'yes, yes'.

Madam Zhang's voice was very big and Jiang Ningbao, Jiang Jin, Chun Xi, Chun Le, along with the black clothed guards who stood far away all heard this clearly.

As the leader of this team of guards, Xie Qi's face slightly sank. Jiang Ningbao and her older brother stood there in an embarrassed manner. The siblings' gazes were calm.

Old servant Yang opened the door and exited with an ugle expression. She carefully looked at the team of black clothed guards not far away and mustered a smile toward the two people.

"Third young master, fourth lady, the madam is feeling uncomfortable and her emotion is not stable. I ask for third young master and fourth lady's understanding. The wing-rooms at the back have been tidied. Third young master, fourth lady, rest first. Later, there will be servants sending food over." Old servant Yang called servant girls to lead the way.

"Since it's like that. We will visit oldest aunt again tomorrow."

Jiang Ningbao smiled slightly and nodded in understanding. She looked at old servant Yang's thin and pallid appearance and she found it funny in her heart. It seemed that the oldest aunt threw a lot of tantrums the past few days. This old servant Yang became a lot thinner.

Jiang Jin did not speak and let his little sister make the decision.

Old servant Yang moved her lips but did not say anything. This fourth lady could not be compared to the past. She was only a servant, how could she stop the fourth lady from visiting the madam?

"Old servant Yang, let them scram! Don't be an eyesore here!" Inside the room, her oldest aunt's furious voice traveled out once more.

Jiang Ningbao and Jiang Jin: "....."

Oldest aunt's anger was really high.

"Brother, it seems that oldest aunt's mood is not good. Let us go to the prepared wing-rooms first." Jiang Ningbao turned her head to look at her older brother and spoke with a soft and warm tone.

"Alright." Jiang Jin nodded.

After the servant girl led the two of them out, the black clothed guards left one by one. Then, old servant Yang wiped her cold sweat and went back to the room.

The sky was dark and the moon was high-up.

After Jiang Ningbao and her older brother Jiang Jin ate delicious meals, they had a conversation while sitting on the stone chairs in the courtyard. The black clothed guards kept guard in shifts under Xie Qi's arrangement.

Jiang Ningbao's servant girl, Chun Le, heard the news Yang Shuqing spread from the servants of the noble houses who were at Clear Water Temple and immediately reported to her lady.

Then, Jiang Ningbao told her older brother of this matter.

In the book, Upper Cloud Wine Shop was always Yang Shuqing and King Qin's money bag and there was no plot like this in it.

Perhaps, because she, this very important 'venomous female secondary character', kept on holding back the female lead and exposed more or less all her cards, the script changed.

"Brother, why do you think Miss Yang, this one girl, ran hither and thither like this? She's born in a marquis residence that holds power and influence and she can live without worry and still be Anyuan Marquis Residence's oldest miss with noble identity. Is there a need to participate in the fight between imperial family members?"

Jiang Ningbao really did not understand Yang Shuqing. From the novel, after being reborn, Yang Shuqing's life was face-slapping and revenge, finding a backing, creating the connections and force that belonged to her, enacting vengeance on her enemies, and also dating the male lead Xie Jingyi. The point of the story was mostly on revenge and tormenting scums.

This act of Yang Shuqing made others look at her with new eyes. But officially standing on King Qin's side would create continuous problems after that. If she's not careful, there would be a calamity.

Perhaps it was because of being reborn, knowing the future, that made Yang Shuqing dare to take this bold and reckless move.

"Perhaps she has an obsession or big ambition, and is not willing to be confined in the backyard." Jiang Jin looked at the bright moon in the sky and smiled slightly. After seeing Yang Shuqing, he noticed the vicious currents and ambition hidden deep in her eyes.

"Not willing to be confined in the backyard, she should get married to King Qin or King Jin. Like this, she could perform more." Jiang Ningbao drank the tea that carried slight bitterness and spoke speechlessly.
