Despite the Jiang family’s second branch’s somewhat horrible reputation, Jiang Ruobai’s only son was known by everyone as the “Immortal Young Master”.
Jiang Yi was the third child in the entire Jiang family and was often called “Jiang Sanlang1”. He was Jiang Ruobai and Lin Zizi’s oldest child, which made him their only legitimate son from the second branch and also Jiang Ning’s biological brother.
He had inherited all the good traits from his parents. He was both handsome and talented, and although he was only 18 years old, he had already been scheduled to sit on the autumn examination.1
It could be said that Jiang Yi was the pride and joy of the Jiang family’s first and second branches.
He studied in the academy all year round and rarely visited home.
Although Jiang Ning had never met Jiang Sanlang before, she could tell from Jiang Yuan and Jiang Yan’s reactions that he must be very good to his younger sisters.
Jiang Ning didn’t expect much about what her brother would be like, so she remained calm during her daddy’s announcement.
However, the looks and the occasional sharp glare that Jiang Yuan had been throwing at her during the rest of dinner had piqued Jiang Ning’s curiosity.
From the looks of it, Jiang Ning could guess that the Fifth Lady was probably worried that she might steal her big brother’s love and attention. The childish gesture only amused her, but Jiang Ning pretended as if she hadn’t seen anything and continued to eat.
Even though Jiang Yi was her biological brother, it doesn’t erase the fact that they had lived apart for more than ten years. While on the other hand, Jiang Yuan and Jiang Yan lived with him under the same roof during those years. From how they reacted, Jiang Ning could tell that the three of them must’ve had a deep bond together.
It was both flattering and dumb for Jiang Yuan to feel threatened by her presence.
She could care less about her brother coming home.
As long as he doesn’t ostracize or hate her, that would be enough for her.
In the end, Jiang Ning had only managed to finish half a bowl of porridge at dinner. She had no appetite, yet her mouth was still craving something to eat. She hated this confusing feeling. When she returned to the purple bamboo garden, she forced against her lack of appetite to eat a dry white steamed bun. It was only then that her stomach finally settled.
She found it strange that she only felt nauseated and uncomfortable consuming anything other than those white steamed buns.
She wanted to cook something herself, but she couldn’t stand the smell of oil and smoke in the kitchen.
It was annoying to be so hungry, especially when your body had also rejected most of the food she wanted to eat.
With little to do, Jiang Ning washed up and went to bed early. The following day, she was woken up just as the sun rose. Chun Lai brought a few servant girls with brand-new dresses and jewelry to help her dress up.
The material was of the best quality, and she noticed that her maids had chosen a style of dress she had often seen in the shops while she was still in the streets. It must be popular in the fashion industry. The wide sleeves and the tight waist of the dress were meant to accentuate her thin waist, making her look light and slender.
However, since Jiang Ning was sitting in a wheelchair, nobody could really see it, which she thought was a waste of a beautiful dress.

She was unmarried, so she didn’t need too much jewelry. She had combed her hair into two buns, each with two small pink pearl hairpins and two small pearl pendants hung on her ears.
She was beautiful to begin with, and the pearls complemented each other, emphasizing the pinkness of her cheeks and making her face more radiant.
“Young Lady, although you’re already so beautiful, you still look different when you dress up,” Chun Lai’s eyes sparkled in awe.
“Clothes make the woman, and the saddle makes the horse.”
Jiang Ning played with her bangs and yawned, “It’s still so early to be all dressed up. Is there something going on in the manor?”
“The Third Young Master arrived home in the middle of the night yesterday. He’s waiting in the front yard now.” Chun Lai explained, “The Fifth and Sixth Young Ladies have already made their way to meet him. Young Lady, shall we go? The Master had instructed the Third Young Master to accompany the Young Lady out to relax, remember?”
In her previous life, Jiang Ning loved shopping, trying on clothes, and buying new shoes. But with her leg’s condition, what was the point of shopping?
However, she had her own reasons for agreeing to this little excursion.
All the doctors that had come and checked on her said there was nothing wrong with her, yet she couldn’t keep her food down most of the time, and she kept feeling sleepy for the whole day.
There was definitely something fishy going on.
‘It’s strange.’
Jiang Ning’s intuition told her there was more to this than meets the eye.
Besides, she was not the kind of person who could just sit around and wait for her impending doom to come. It was time to take matters into her own hands.
She decided to look for a doctor herself quietly.
When she pushed the wheelchair to the front yard, she spotted Jiang Yuan and Jiang Yan circling a tall young man like two butterflies from a distance. They were chatting animatedly to the man.
As expected, when she got closer, the young man in green was extraordinarily handsome, and his calm and relaxed temperament was exactly the same as Jiang Ruobai.
Jiang Yuan was the first to spot Jiang Ning and immediately smiled, a little devilishly, before she turned to the slightly older man, “Third Brother, look. Seventh Sister is here.”
Jiang Yi turned around and looked at Jiang Ning.
