Minister Wei’s Manor)!

“Mingyue knows where Weixiang Fu’s entrance gate is…?” Jiang Yue’e asked, feeling confused.

Jiang Mingyue narrowed her eyes.
The moment Bao Shu mentioned Weixiang, she understood what was going on.
Weixiang Fu’s eldest daughter, Wei Lanzhi, was Zhao Lingxiao’s sweetheart.
In Jiang Mingyue’s previous life, Wei Lanzhi married Zhao Lingxiao to be his second wife.
Everyone said that these two people had a true love that touched the heavens and moved the earth.
Only envious of the pair of mandarin ducks rather than the immortals2只羡鸳鸯不羡仙: Only envious of the pair of mandarin ducks rather than the immortals.
This is referring to a proverb written by Lu Zhaolin, one of the Four Great Poets of the Early Tang dynasty.
It’s about being envious of an affectionate couple who are able to hold hands and grow old together, accompanying each other for their whole lives like a pair of mandarin ducks.
They’re so happy together that they wouldn’t even want to become celestial immortals if they were given the chance., they cursed Jiang Mingyue for wrecking this marriage that was predestined by divine fate3Referring to the immortals who set the red thread of marriage.
How could this be? In this life, the wedding had only just been set into motion.
Yet she was already gaining infamy?

“The Wei’s third young master said that Second Miss’s marriage to the Crown Prince of Tushan is… is…” Bao Shu stuttered for quite a while.
Under Old Madam Xu’s glare, Bao Shu finally managed to say, “He said that our Second Miss is shameless.
That she’s something candlelight something.
Anyway, it simply wasn’t anything good.”

“Candlelight?” Jiang Yue’e said with a blank stare: “What kind of insult is this?”

“Sigh,” Jiang Mingyue let out a sigh: “It is scolding that I am a candlelight that wants to vie for the splendor of the sun and the moon—that there’s no limit to my boldness.”

“This—” Jiang Yue’e was stupefied, “W-Why does this Wei family’s Third Young Master scold others in such an unpleasant manner?”

“Aiyo!” Old Madam Xu jumped up from her seat and ran out of the reception pavilion.
“The Wei’s third son… That little shriveled calf! I’m going to flip him upside down!!”

“Grandma!” Jiang Mingyue chased after Old Madam Xu.
The old madam of her family was going out to quarrel!

Jiang Yue’e had yet to even fully understand the situation, and her grandmother was already heading out to do who knows what.
However, this did not hinder Jiang Yue’e from also chasing after Old Madam Xu with fervent urgency.

By the time the third person ran out of Anyuan Houfu, housekeeper Wang Decai had a sullen expression.
He walked into the reception pavilion, stopped in front of Old Sir Jiang, and asked softly, “Old Master, you’re not going out to have a look?”

Old Sir Jiang slowly raised his gaze to look at the housekeeper before taking his time to say, “Is there a point to me going? It’s of no use even if I were to say anything.” Earlier, when those three people ran out like they were being chased by a dog, none of them had turned back to glance at him.

Wang Decai: “……”

‘Yes, Old Master, it’s best that you just rest.
There really is no use for you.’
