Chapter 153: Sisters-in-law
Jiang Shi really found a new pot, transplanted the peacock epiphyllum, and moved it into the prison cell.
Then she personally sent Jiang Youyi out of the prison.
Jiang Youyi looked back at the gloomy and terrifying prison cage, and a secret pleasure hooked the corner of her mouth.
How glorious and proud was Du Mingzhu in front of her before? Relying on her maternal grandfather being the Marquis of Beian, her father being an official, and even more relying on that face that was much prettier than hers, she always showed a sense of superiority.
How about now?
Du Mingzhu, I didn't expect you to have today.
"Danju, between me and Mingzhu sister, who looks better now?" Jiang Youyi raised her neck high, like a proud peacock.
Danju covered her swollen face and forced a smile. "Of course, you look better, Miss."
She paused and said, "But Miss, I heard that ugliness is contagious. In the future, should you... stay away from Miss Mingzhu?"
That woman Du Mingzhu was too terrifying; she was really afraid that one day she would lose her hands for no reason.
Jiang Youyi refused. "How can that be? I have always been close to Mingzhu sister; how can I alienate her when she needs me the most? What kind of person would I be?"
Not only would she not alienate her, but she would also hang around in front of Du Mingzhu as much as possible, letting her good best friend taste the feeling of being jealous of others, ha.
The master and servant talked as they walked further and further away.
In the prison, Jiang Shi sat on the stool by the bed, and a rare look of joy appeared on her face, which had been miserable for days.
She took a letter from her bosom and said to her daughter, "Zhuer, your uncle has written!"
Du Mingzhu said "Uh" listlessly.
Her uncle was Jiang Huaizuo, the eldest son of the Marquis of Beian and the future Marquis.
"Your uncle said he has already found someone to clear the relationship, and you will be rescued soon. By then, you can go home to recuperate." Jiang Shi comforted her.
Only then did Du Mingzhu's eyes have some spirit. "Really?"
"Of course it's true." Jiang Shi patted her daughter's hand, giving her a reassurance pill. "I know you don't like those people in the Marquis of Beian's residence and feel they look down on you. But your uncle is different; he is truly good to you and will never ignore your life or death."
Du Mingzhu recalled the few periods she spent in the Marquis of Beian's residence before and nodded. "Yes, Uncle is extremely good to me."
Not worse than how he treated Jiang Ning and Jiang Shu.
Perhaps because of this, those bastards couldn't stand her and bullied her in various ways.
But if Uncle knew she had become this terrifying look, would he still be good to her...
"It was Du Ruo who harmed me, Mom, do you believe it?"
"I believe it." Jiang Shi sneered. "How could there be such a coincidence? She came first, and then cockroaches appeared here. It wasn't brought by her, it must have been attracted by her. Anyway, it has an inseparable connection with her."
After speaking, she sighed again. "It's a pity there is no evidence, and we can't do anything about her."
Du Mingzhu was silent.
After a long while, she spoke again, "Mom, now that I am like this, am I unable to get married?"
Jiang Shi touched her daughter's hair and smiled. "Silly child, face is not the most important thing for a mistress of the house; family background is."
She gave examples to her daughter. "Look, Mom doesn't look that good, and I'm just a concubine's daughter, but relying on the big tree of the Marquis of Beian, didn't I find your father, this ideal husband?"
With your conditions, perhaps you can't marry into a high-ranking family, but those ordinary families are all up to us to pick?
What kind do you want? Considerate? Capable? Or good-looking? Tell Mom, and Mom will look for you, ensuring you live comfortably after getting married."
Du Mingzhu thought for a while. "I heard that Jiang Li's younger brother, Jiang Zhan, took the county's top scholar?"
Jiang Shi was stunned. "Zhuer, you don't mean..."
Du Mingzhu continued, "I also heard that he is the same age as me, and he is very handsome, and his personality is gentle and obedient?"
Jiang Shi's eyes flickered. "Could it be that you have taken a fancy to him? Want to marry into the Jiang family like Du Ruo?"
She stood up suddenly. "No, I don't agree!"
"How is that possible?" Du Mingzhu shook her head amusedly. "Being sisters with that slut is the greatest shame of my life. Being sisters-in-law with her? Heh, I'm afraid I'll vomit in disgust!"
Jiang Shi found that she couldn't understand her daughter anymore. "Then what do you mean..."
A thick ruthlessness flashed on Du Mingzhu's face. "I mean, Jiang Zhan is now the person with the most hope of reviving the Jiang family, and he is also the person Jiang Li and Du Ruo want to protect the most. Since that's the case, why not just take advantage of his wings not being fully grown and destroy him?"
She wanted the Jiang family to never be able to climb up in her life, and let Du Ruo be a slut forever!
Her daughter's madness fell into Jiang Shi's eyes. Jiang Shi hesitated, paced back and forth in the prison cell, thinking of the inhuman pain her daughter had suffered these days...
She finally gritted her teeth. "Okay, Zhuer, you can rest assured and recuperate. Mom will arrange those things." ===== CHAPTER 154 =====
