Married To The Male Lead’s Father

Xiaoyu loves to eat cats. Looking at Jiang Ningbao's unhurried, neither annoyed nor angry look, the eyes of the concubine's wife flickered, maybe they really made a mistake, there is something weird about these four girls.

Butler Zhao had a hint of interest in his eyes and said, "Miss Jiang Si, please ask."

"First thing, I want to ask who will be compensated by the Dingguo Palace for the fifth-grade official position?" Jiang Ningbao raised her lips and asked softly.

As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Jiang and Uncle Chang Ning's expressions darkened slightly.

Butler Zhao looked at Miss Jiang Si in surprise and replied truthfully: "Of course it's for uncle."

Jiang Ningbao frowned slightly, and an unbearable hint of weakness appeared on her face unconsciously. She pretended to be confused and asked.

"I remember that taking the fifth-grade official position is compensation for renunciation, isn't it?"

"So the fifth-grade official position should fall to my biological eldest brother Jiang Jin. My eldest brother is over 18 years old. He obtained the title of scholar in his early years and is preparing for the provincial examination this year."

"Why?"

Madam Zhang was panicked, fearing that Butler Zhao would change his mind, so she glared at Jiang Ningbao fiercely and blurted out questions.

Mrs. Jiang, who had always been very calm, her eyes turned cold, and she glared displeased at Mrs. Zhang who couldn't wait to jump out.

What a fool.

Where has the usual shrewdness gone?

Changning Bo Jiang Dongming's face flashed with unswerving expression, and he was very dissatisfied. In his opinion, this niece was so ignorant that she didn't even understand the laws of the Dai Viet Dynasty, so she made such a joke.

"Fourth girl, according to Dai Viet law, serving officials can be promoted upwards. My current official position is the sixth rank. Going up is from the fifth rank. Children of aristocratic families who have no meritorious service are not allowed to hold official positions above the sixth rank."

As soon as Uncle Chang Ning finished speaking, the eldest lady Zhang realized that she had done something stupid. She caught a glimpse of the sarcasm in the eyes of the other concubine ladies and the cold eyes of the old lady, and her face paled slightly.

Jiang Ningbao was stunned.

No wonder the eldest brother's reply did not mention this matter. It turned out that the eldest brother had already known that this official position would not fall to him.

However, the plot in the book does not seem to be like this. The fifth-rank official position finally fell to Zhang's second son, her second cousin Jiang Yue. How come he is now the uncle?

Jiang Ningbao couldn't help but carefully recall the memory of the time traveler, and reviewed the content in the book. It turned out that she had accidentally confused the timeline.

In the book, Jiang Ningbao refused to break away from her marriage, going dark and framed the heroine, which lasted for nearly a year. She became the most vicious female supporting character in the book and the catalyst for the relationship between the male and female protagonists.

The heroine herself is not a good person. She gives in step by step on the surface, but secretly supports the Chang Ning family to deal with Jiang Ningbao.

With the operation of the Duke's Palace and the Xie family behind Anyuan Hou and Xie Shizi, Chang Ning Bo was promoted from the sixth rank to the fourth rank in less than a year. Of course, he did not need the idle position of the Ministry of Works Yuanwailang from the fifth rank.

This official position finally fell into the hands of his second cousin Jiang Yue.

"My uncle is right, Miss Jiang Si, this compensation official position can only fall on my uncle." Butler Zhao nodded seriously.

The prince originally asked the old lady for this compensation from the fifth rank official position, but it was actually for Uncle Chang Ning.

Jiang Ningbao nodded in realization, showed a wry smile, and explained sheepishly: "So it turns out that I am too ignorant and too impatient. I just thought that my father and mother were not here, so I asked my eldest brother to set up a second wife as soon as possible."

Three years ago, the eldest brother Jiang Jin was only fifteen years old. He suddenly heard the tragic news that his parents had died before they even said they were married. The brother and sister had observed mourning for three years and only paid tribute at the beginning of this year.

The eldest brother also studied at home for three years and went to Qingshan Academy at the beginning of this spring.

Unexpectedly, a few days ago, Jiang Ningbao learned that she was traveling through a book and that her parents were still alive somewhere.

This is simply God's biggest joke.

That’s all, everything can’t go as planned.

It seems that by agreeing to break off the engagement in advance, she blocked a lot of plots that would have happened, and most of the plots in the book can only be used as reference in the future.

If you suffer a little loss, you will suffer a little loss. Her parents will come back in the future. The eldest brother is just a scholar and has not yet been admitted to the imperial examination. Her grandfather's home is too far away from the capital and is beyond her reach. It is better for her not to have too much trouble with Uncle Chang Ning.

Lest the eldest brother secretly pull out some dirty tricks and affect his eldest brother's provincial examination this year.

Jiang Ningbao secretly analyzed the pros and cons in her heart.

"Miss Jiang Fourth and Third Young Master Jiang have a deep love for each other, which is the envy of others."

Butler Zhao smiled understandingly. There were only Fourth Miss Jiang and Third Young Master Jiang in the second room of the Jiang family. Judging from the behavior of the Jiang family's eldest uncle and wife, he was afraid that there was no hope. The only one he could rely on was Third Young Master Jiang.

Uncle Chang Ning's expression improved. It turned out that the niece was so out of control because she wanted Brother Jin to get a second wife as soon as possible, and the dissatisfaction in his heart dissipated a little.

“Read more about Dai Viet’s regulations in the future to avoid making a fool of yourself.”

Jiang Ningbao nodded in an educated manner: "Yes, thank you uncle for your advice." You really need to study the laws of Dai Viet carefully, and understand some things even if you don't need them.

Perhaps after a long period of apocalypse, he has long forgotten that laws are needed to maintain stability in peacetime, and he has been living a somewhat comfortable life these past few years.

"Fourth girl, the uncle's house is also your backing. Don't get distracted. Only when the family is well can you enjoy the family's protection."

Mrs. Jiang took a deep look at her seemingly obedient granddaughter and couldn't help but warn her. It seemed that Prince Xie's withdrawal from the engagement had greatly affected her, causing her temperament to change drastically.

In case she does something that damages the reputation of the uncle's house... Mrs. Jiang has to take precautions.

"What grandma said is that the granddaughter is taught."

Jiang Ningbao responded respectfully.

She sneered in her heart, the family's protection... The old lady didn't like her as her granddaughter, and her eldest aunt Zhang was such a snobbish person, so it would be merciful not to squeeze out the value of their brothers and sisters.

She has been able to live peacefully and comfortably in the past three years simply because she is the fiancée of the eldest son of the Duke of Guo, and she might marry into the Duke's palace soon.

But something went wrong at the Peach Blossom Banquet, and Prince Xie broke off the engagement.

The faces of the old lady and the eldest lady Zhang have changed, and the portions of their meals have become smaller and smaller. The so-called family protection is a joke.

"Miss Jiang Si, what is the second thing you want to ask?" Butler Zhao saw that it was getting late and asked hurriedly.

A smile appeared on Jiang Ningbao's delicate and soft face, like a camellia blooming in spring, gorgeous and charming, and she asked with a hint of expectation.

"Steward Zhao, I said before that I didn't want to be the prince's sister, but I couldn't bear it after being divorced, so I said that I wanted to marry Duke Ding. After that, the more I thought about it, the more I felt that my current fiancé's mother was quite good. I wonder if Mrs. Xie has any reply?"

As soon as these words came out, the concubine's wives were dumbfounded and looked at Jiang Ningbao with a strange look in their eyes.

These four girls must be crazy excited.

She actually misses her current fiancé.

It’s scary to think about.

Mrs. Jifang hesitated in her heart. The fourth girl's dowry was rich, but the fourth girl was withdrawn from the engagement. She seemed to be greatly stimulated and lost her head. If she did something bad, wouldn't she be cheating her parents' family?

Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Zhang were originally calm, but they didn't expect that after a few days, Jiang Ningbao still didn't give up, and her expression suddenly changed.

Especially Mrs. Zhang, she has secretly arranged a 'good' marriage for her niece.

Once she breaks off the kiss, take good care of her.

Now, in front of the concubine's wife, the niece said that she wanted her future fiancé's mother.

Mrs. Zhang secretly hated her niece for talking nonsense regardless of the occasion, and her face was extremely ugly. She didn't even have to think about it. After Butler Zhao left the uncle's house, there would be rumors flying all over the capital in less than a long time.

Uncle Chang Ning, who had never cared much about the backyard, apparently found out for the first time that his niece had such thoughts. His face changed drastically and he yelled angrily: "Nonsense, ridiculous!"

"Uncle, this is a life-long matter for my niece. Please allow her to be as she pleases." Jiang Ningbao bowed slightly to his uncle Jiang Dongming and said firmly.

With a "bang", Jiang Dongming slammed the table and shouted sternly: "I never agree!"

The eldest lady, Mrs. Zhang, was so frightened by her husband's sudden burst of anger that her face turned pale, her heart beat with fear, and her heart kept sinking. She found that her husband seemed to pay too much attention to her niece.

"Uncle!"

"Shut up, marriage is a big deal, what the matchmaker said, after the engagement is broken off, I will ask your aunt to arrange a good marriage for you." Chang Ning Bo Jiang Dongming's face was ashen, and he slapped the table hard again.

The concubine's wife turned pale and couldn't help but cover her chest and take a step back. She didn't expect Uncle Chang Ning to be so angry when he was so angry.

The fourth girl is so brave.

Jiang Ningbao was not frightened by his anger. The softness in her brows disappeared, she looked at him calmly, raised her delicate little face, and spoke without compromise.

"Uncle, please forgive my niece for being unfilial!"

Butler Zhao did not expect that Miss Jiang Si would ask about this matter so quickly. It happened that the old lady was very satisfied with Miss Jiang Si. Seeing that Uncle Chang Ning was furious, he objected with all his strength. He couldn't help but frown, and he replied tactfully.

"Uncle, my old lady said that she likes Miss Fourth very much."

Uncle Chang Ning choked in his throat and glared at Jiang Ningbao with an ugly look on his face.

"This is inconsistent with etiquette."

Butler Zhao smiled and said: "Uncle, the Fourth Miss once said that she wanted to marry the Duke of Guo. Two days ago, my old lady found the horoscopes of the eminent monk He Guo and the Fourth Miss. To her surprise, the two people's fortunes were extremely good. Compatible."

"The old lady is very happy."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed drastically.

Everyone understood the meaning of Butler Zhao's words. Madam Xie was attracted to Jiang Ningbao.

Jiang Ningbao felt happy. It turned out that her and Duke Ding's fates were so compatible. She couldn't help but have a hint of joy on her soft face. She raised the marriage certificate in her hand and said in a brisk tone.

"I've asked clearly, Butler Zhao, let's go to the government office now. It's better to break off the engagement as soon as possible, so that Prince Xie won't have to worry about it all the time."

This time there was no one to stop him. Uncle Chang Ning took a breath and thought of something, his eyes were dark and unclear.

Mrs. Jiang glanced at Jiang Ningbao with a complicated expression. Mrs. Zhang didn't care whether Jiang Ningbao left the hall. Her eyes remained on the big boxes, full of excitement.

"Grandma, should we collect the compensation from Duke Dingguo first?"

Mrs. Jiang glanced at the several concubine daughters-in-law present and scolded Mrs. Zhang for being such a fool.

"Hongxing, ask someone to count them, and wait for the fourth girl to come back and deliver them to her yard."

Mrs. Zhang was stunned for a moment, then her eyes turned red and she shouted: "Mother!"

Even Commander Ning Bo couldn't help but glance at his mother.

Mrs. Jiang closed her eyes.

After leaving the hall, Jiang Ningbao greeted Chunxi. Chunxi took the curtain hat that had been prepared and put it on the girl, covering her delicate and soft face.

"Butler Zhao, let's go, my carriage is already waiting at the side door." Jiang Ningbao chuckled lightly, and his melodious voice seemed to be filled with a touch of joy.

Butler Zhao smiled slightly, followed Miss Jiang Si's carriage with a group of guards, left Chang Ning's Mansion, and headed straight for the government office.

Seeing this, the people who were watching the activities of the uncle's house openly followed him to watch the excitement.

The crowd suddenly exploded when they saw Butler Zhao entering the government office together with a graceful woman wearing a curtain to cover her face.

"The person next to Butler Zhao must be Miss Jiang Si. Why is she wearing a curtain hat? Could it be that she is as ugly as the rumors say?"

"It's possible. No wonder Prince Xie wants to cancel the marriage."

"What is Butler Zhao doing at the government office?"

"Depending on the situation, they should have gone to the government office to cancel the marriage certificate. They must have taken it very seriously when they got married. Maybe there is some inside story?"

"You are overthinking it. What kind of inside story can you have? Notarizing the marriage certificate in the government office is just a matter of attaching importance to the marriage."

"That's not certain."

"Aren't you saying that Miss Jiang Si is ugly and shameless?"

The crowd of onlookers lingered for a long time, and the topic turned to Miss Jiang Si's appearance.
