The news of Duke Ding braving through the pouring rain to rush to Changning Count Residence spread out, making other people curious.

Could it be that something happened to Jiang fourth miss?

The crowd felt their hearts thump.

After they investigated the reason, they all went silent.

So the Duke Ding people feared and avoided as if he was poison also had a soft side. When his fiancee was bullied, he rushed through the pouring rain to placate and this showed how important she was to him.

Jiang fourth miss was really a fortunate person.

The noble ladies admired her.

At the same time, they were shocked that the origin of the two educational old servants that Old Madam Xie sent to Jiang fourth miss was not small as they both had served the previous empress. No wonder that Old Madam Jiang in Changning Count Residence would be moved to have some ideas.

If it were them, they also could not help but be moved.

"Jiang fifth miss' moral conduct is not bad," a noble madam said this.

Jiang Mingyao's reputation spread out because of this matter.

Everyone praised the moral conduct of the legitimate born daughter of Changning Count Residence and others even thought higher of the oldest daughter of Jiang family who was pregnant.

Xie family's second madam heard the capital's noble ladies praising her future daughter-in-law and felt proud.

Actually, she did not like Jiang fifth miss. If it weren't for the request of her oldest son who was adopted, Xie Second Madam won't even look at the ladies in Changning Count Residence.

The present was different from the past, Xie family's second branch was not the same branch that was ignored ten years ago.

In her heart, her second son's wife must be a noble lady with high status.

The only thing that comforted her was that Jiang fifth miss' personality was cool and pure, not asking about worldly matters, easy to control.

At night, First Madam Zhang at Clear Water Temple finally knew the things happening in the residence and her face turned white. Her face was dark as she wished to go back to the residence and shook her muddled daughter awake, also teaching a lesson to Jiang Ningbao, that blasted girl. But once she thought that if she left Clear Water Temple, her body would be tortured as such, she dismissed the idea and went to the count to complain.

On the second day, the sky was bright.

Changning Count Jiang Dongming went back to the count residence.

As the owner of the count residence, Changning Count Jiang Dongming rushed to the west courtyard once he arrived and used the excuse of justice to chide Jiang Jin, this nephew, sternly. And then, he went to Jiang Ningbao's courtyard to scathingly denounced her for making a big deal out of a small thing, making Changning Count Residence embarrassed.

Jiang Ningbao looked at Changning Count who reprimanded her with saliva flying all over and her gaze turned cold. She went silent for a while and spoke faintly, "So what oldest uncle means is that niece shouldn't tell the duke and not let the duke appear, swallowing the grievance to the stomach."

Once Changning Count heard that his niece did not change, the anger that had not subsided raised and he glared at his niece as he reprimanded with a loud voice and a stern face.

"Fourth girl, your grandmother only wants to let you take Yao'er to attend the lessons taught by the two old servants, how can this give you grievance? Yao'er is your little sister and sisters should help each other."

"Moreover, it was only a sentence, you actually made such a big ruckus, making the whole count residence embarrassed. Indeed, you've grown wings and do not put the count residence in your eyes."

Jiang Ningbao declined to comment and looked at Changning Count with an indifferent gaze, "Oldest uncle, niece's wedding date is earlier than fifth sister but no one in the residence prepared anything for niece's wedding, they did not even give me an educational old servant. Fifth sister had long found educational old servants and grandmother put all her mind to preparing fifth sister's wedding."

Saying up to this point, Jiang Ningbao halted and looked at Changning Count's face that slowly turned green and she laughed coldly in her heart as she continued.

"After the duke knew about niece's situation and took it upon himself to invite an embroiderer to help embroider the wedding dress and invited the old servants from the palace to teach niece etiquette, while the relatives in the residence kept on ignoring niece. If there's any benefit that can be gained, then try to get it. Want to share a cup of soup and no benefit, then throw you to a corner to be forgotten. If there's benefit, then using the excuse of sisters should help each other to get the benefit. How can there be such a good thing in the world?"

"Oldest uncle, is niece right?"

Jiang Ningbao gave Changning Count a sneer.

Changning Count only felt that his face was hot and glared at Jiang Ningbao for a while. He then left, flying into rage from shame, while flicking his sleeve.

Chun Xi and Chun Le who were at the side released their breaths and revealed happy smiles.

Their lady was amazing. The count was angered until leaving. When the count reprimanded their lady, their hearts were not comfortable. They had seen the treatments their lady got in the residence.

The count actually had the face to reprimand their lady.

Jiang Ningbao smiled lightly and tidied the hair by her ear. She then tidied pieces of her jacket and strode out of the hall alone to attend the lesson of the two old servants.

From the time Old Madam Jiang was warned by the person Duke Ding sent, Old Madam Jiang did not call for Jiang Ningbao and Changning Count was the same.

Jiang Ningbao was happy to maintain such a situation.
