Chapter 222 You Deserved! You Spoiled Him!

In the morning of the next day, the couple said sweet words to each other after getting up. And then, Jiang Yashuang said to Qiu Yelan, “I have required Yadan to get an explanation from Uncle Mengmin. In my opinion, if Uncle Mengmin begs grandfather for Madame Miao, my grandfather may forgive Madame Miao, or she must be punished seriously.”

Qiu Yelan was a little stunned when hearing his words, “So, Yadan can do this? Impressive!”

“You know what, Yadan was raised in the first branch!” Jiang Yashuang said with a cold smile. As the maids did not enter the room, he continued, “You know, Yadan was very smart in his childhood. His intelligence was well-known in the capital. How could he become a person who only focuses on women?”

“… About this, did anyone explain what was going on about him?” Qiu Yelan paused for a while. There were only three males in the fourth branch. And Jiang Yadan was the first child in the first branch! How could he be raised to be a useless man? It was not strange if Yadan’s parents killed the first branch because of this!

Jiang Yashuang mocked, “Grandfather has been protecting the first branch. There was nothing my father could do about it. He had to pretend to be a blind man.”

“What about your mother?” Although she got married not long ago, Qiu Yelan had heard some news about her mother-in-law, Madame Zhuang. She was more of an aggressive woman. Zhuang Man, it was said, was just like her aunt, Madame Zhuang. But compared to Madame Zhuang back then, Zhuang Man, who was shrewd and unruly in the eyes of others, was simply a good girl!

Even if Jiang Tianchi was willing to take the consequences, she wouldn’t be, would she?

“My mother did not know about it.” Said Jiang Yashuang with a serious face. “My father was afraid that my mother might make big trouble due to this… So, he ordered all of us to hide it from her. Even now, she always thinks that the smart Yadan becomes today’s Yadan because he changed his focus from books to Kungfu, and the reason he serves in the Imperial Army instead of the Northern Army was that grandfather liked him very much. And the other reason was that Empress Jiang wants an insider in the palace… ”

“Oh, I see now!” Sighed Qiu Yelan. “But, do you think that it was good to ask Yadan to go to the first branch? Yadan must hate the first branch deeply. As you know… ”

“Not at all,” said Jiang Yashuang, shaking his head, “he has been raised to be a useless man by the first branch. Anyway, he always thinks that our family is a prominent family with an ocean of wealth. He thinks it is okay to be supported by the family, looking for girls and playing with them. And you know what, even now, the first branch still spoils him very much. He always seeks help from the first branch after making trouble.”

Qiu Yelan said with a cold smile, “He is not even thinking of improving himself. So, it is natural that he does not think the people who spoil him are hateful! But there is one thing I don’t understand. Does the first branch really want to save his ass? According to my observation, Madame Dou Junior and others do not like Madame Tao Junior at all!”

Jiang Yashuang said with a cold smile, “The first branch attempts to destroy a talent by overpraising him. Yadan could have got and done what he wanted since his childhood, but without any punishment for the trouble he made. When he was old enough, they took him out, playing, drinking and looking for girls. Long story, in short, they tried hard to spoil him. Have you ever seen anyone who has been spoiled could be sent away without meeting his demands?!”

Of course not!

Caiqi rushed to Qiu Yelan, whispering to her with her shirt in her hand not long after Jiang Yashuang went to work, “The young master Yadan is arguing something with the first branch! The Madame just sent a maid over here, instructing you to pretend to be ill and laying down in bed in the inner chamber, and no matter who will invite you, don’t answer. Just lie in bed. We will deal with the comers!”

“Okay!” Qiu Yelan nodded with a flash in her eyes. She immediately entered into the inner chamber, taking off her clothes and lying down in bed. And then she commanded Caiqi to her bed, “Do you know what’s going on about Yadan?”

Caiqi asked Caiying to the front door to deal with the comers. And then she sat cross-legged, smiling, “It is just a farce. He has a few tricks which he had used many times… You may not understand what’s going on about him as you got married not long ago. I can guess out what’s going on even I am not there.”

“Let me tell you what he will do. First, he gives his requirements. If they are unmet, he will smash ornaments, hit people, and then curse them with their ancestors’ names, saying they did not do good deeds in the old days… ” Caiqi said with a cough, adding, “I guess after today, the first branch has to replace a lot of ornaments.”

Qiu Yelan was shocked, “He… Usually smashes a lot?” Depending on the decorations in the inner chamber, it was easy to tell that the Jiang Family had a wealthy life. Jiang Tianao was a generation older than Jiang Yashuang, and he was a vice premier. But the most important was that he was one of the nieces of Marquess Qin who liked him very much. So, the decorations and ornaments in the first branch’s rooms must be worth a lot!

“What a loser. He must feel lucky that he was born and raised in the wealthy Jiang Family. If he was born and raised in a common one, he must have been dead one hundred times already!”

Caiqi began to whisper to her when she was immersed in her thought, “In fact, smashing some ornaments is okay. I remember that long ago, there was a time when the young master was arguing with Old Master Tianao. Old Master Tianao did not think that his requirements were reasonable and told him that he wanted some time to think about it… Back then, Old Master Tianao had a concubine. He liked her very much. Because Old Master Tianao liked her much, this concubine overvalued herself. She came in and said something harsh. Guess what happened next. The young master became outraged. He grabbed her hair to the middle of the hall, drowning her in the pool. He even hit Old Master Tianao with his fist twice… ”

“…” Hearing the story, Qiu Yelan felt speechless. “I have met Yadan before. I don’t think he was… Like the man you said.”

Even though she did not like him from their first meeting… Anyway, as a man who could say, “You said you like the Persian cat? In my opinion, Fair Concubine is just like the cat you like. After I get sick of her, you can go and tell them the secret,” it was not strange that he was such ruthless…

No wonder why Madame Tao said that the first branch would not deal with Jiang Yadan on purpose. What Madame Tao said was too vague. Jiang Yadan must be the last man the first branch wanted to see.

“You are our young master’s wife. Your status is much higher than outsiders,” said Caiqi with a smile. “Although the young master Yadan has been looked down by many people, he is good to the young master Yazhu, Chunfu Princess and our young master.”

So, when Jiang Yashuang held me in his arm, walking into the yard, Jiang Yadan restrained himself, doing a favor for his brother?!

Qiu Yelan was speechless, “All right. I have known much! Let me lie down… Tell me if anything new happens!”

What was happening was like Madame Tao expected. One by one, maids came to invite Qiu Yelan. They needed her to go to the first branch, explaining to Jiang Yadan. But not surprisingly, all of them were persuaded to go back by Caiying.

Among them, an old maidservant said that she must see Qiu Yelan. As she insisted, Caiying let her enter into the inner chamber. The old maidservant just saw a vague human shape behind the bed-curtain and heard several coughs. She even wanted to open the bed-curtain on the pretext of greeting to make sure it was Qiu Yelan lying in the bed and being ill. Realizing what she wanted to try, Caiqi asked some servants to get her out of the chamber. “You cheap old maid! Your presence in the inner chamber has tainted our woven carpet! You even dare to get closer to our lady?! Do you think we, the fourth branch, is a lamb or something else?”

Caiying quietly entered into the bed-curtain while Caiqi was yelling at the old maid, “About the old maid, we throw her out or…?”

“Tie her up and send her to He Shuijin in the third branch!” Qiu Yelan commanded. She had preserves while lying on the cushion without raising her head. She continued, “As He Shuijin is in charge of the house, we should send the maid to her. Let’s not take it upon ourselves to punish her, lest she thinks we want to do something bad.”

No need to say, the impatient and bold maid must be from the first branch.

In the first place, the third branch was determined to stand aside, watching the fourth branch fighting with the first branch and cashing in on the fight… Now, the fourth branch was fighting with the first branch. Qiu Yelan reasoned that if she needed help, it would be fine to bother them.

No one came over until noon, which marked that Jiang Yadan had ended his farce.

Surely, before the noon, Caiqi went back, reporting, “In the morning, the young master Yadan went to the first branch, standing on Old Master Tianao’s way to the office. He mentioned that his wife was insulted. After hearing his words, Old Master Tianao immediately said that Madame Miao should offer a banquet to make amends to Madame Tao Junior. But the young master Yadan did not agree with his idea. He argued that Madame Miao was so rude. She deserved to be punished by a divorce. He thought that only in this way, the Jiang Family could save its face in the capital!”

Speaking of this, Caiqi bit her lips. Seeing her behavior, Qiu Yelan smiled and encouraged her, “Go on!” To hear Jiang Yadan wanted to protect the Jiang Family’s reputation from being tainted was weird!

“Of course, Old Master Tianao would not say yes to him. And then, the young master Yadan began to smash ornaments and hit the servants… What he did stopped Old Master Tianao from going to the office! And then, his mother stood out, advising him to give up. Not succeeded. It’s almost noon, the young master Yadan became impatient. He wanted to argue with Madame Miao in person. The first branch failed to stop him. So, they rushed to the second branch and asked Madame Miao to hide in her mother’s house, the Miao Family.”

Caiqi continued with a smile, “I guess, the young master Yadan has walked out of the first branch. He must go to the Miao Family later to find Madame Miao!”

“He is so… ” Qiu Yelan mulled over, bursting into a laugh. “They deserve it! They spoiled him on purpose in the past. Now, it is the time they pay for what they did. They deserve it!”

Qiu Yelan couldn’t help but sigh, “People always say that Yadan is not good for Madame Tao Junior. But depending on what he did today, he surely respects Madame Tao Junior! It is reasonable as they are a young couple.”

Hearing her words, Caiqi felt weird. She stood up, saying, “About this, it may be… Probably…?”

“Why are you stammering?” Qiu Yelan asked surprisingly. “Not true?”

“The young master Yadan is not at home recently. The servant sent letters to him, asking him to go home. But he did not take it seriously. It was our young master Yashuang who sent a servant to ask him to go home.” Caiqi said bitterly. “Why did he argue with the first branch today? It was because our young master has argued with him in private. He promised our young master because he couldn’t say no.”

So, the foolproof back-up that Jiang Yashuang mysteriously said yesterday was to argue with his brother, Jiang Yadan, and forced his brother to argue with the first branch?!

Qiu Yelan felt emotional. She said with hands on her forehead, “Anyway, the first branch will suffer a lot this time!”

No need to say that although Jiang Yadan had been spoiled since his childhood, the first branch would not admit they spoiled him. They must admit in their heart: This was what the first branch owed Jiang Yadan!

And, as far as Jiang Yadan was concerned, he had nothing to worry about. His only hobby was to look for girls. There was nothing else he was interested in. As a saying went, a man who had no desire would be firm. He was a child of the Jiang Family. If he did not do something very serious such as killing parents or brothers or sisters, his farce would be forgiven by the seniors in the Jiang Family although the seniors might be furious about him. But the seniors could do nothing about him, given the Jiang Tianchi’s status in the family!

It was known that there was no one else who was capable of leading the Northern Army except Jiang Tianchi in the family.

Jiang Yayue is not reliable. Even if he had not been suppressed by Jiang Tianchi for so many years, his qualifications, ability and experience could not support him to be installed as the leader of the Northern Army.

So, even now Marquess Qin and Sir Jibei could control Jiang Tianchi, they would be reluctant to be at odds with him!

That was because once Jiang Tianchi failed, the base established by Marquess Qin and Sir Jibei over the past decades in the Northern Army would collapse. It would be a disaster. It wasn’t a false statement, considering the Ruan Family and the Prince’s Mansion of Xihe. They ran the Western Army longer than the Jiang Family ran the Northern Army!

But what happened to them at last? Kuang Shihan betrayed them. Now in the Western Army, there was no single man named after Ruan or Qiu.

The Ruan Family and the Prince’s Mansion of Xihe were not arrogant and didn’t have many political enemies back then. But what happened to them? One had lost his heirs, and the other one was completely gutted… If the Jiang Family were in their shoes, the whole family would be dead, given the public anger they caused in the past!

Hence, Jiang Yadan had nothing to worry about. He could make trouble without concerning anything. His wife did nothing wrong but was insulted. He argued and fought on behalf of his wife. It was very logical!

On the other hand, could the first branch follow his example, arguing with Qiu Yelan? Even if Jiang Yayue considered it was fine without thinking of his reputation, the first thing he should do was to come back from the Beijiang!

“You are so right,” smiled Caiqi. “This month is coming to an end. I guess the young master Yadan must need money. If the Miao Family wants to solve the problem, they surely will sacrifice much this time!”

… So, Jiang Yadan argued so hard because he needed money?

Thinking of this, Qiu Yelan couldn’t help but sigh. As a newcomer of the Jiang Family, she had a lot to learn and worry about. The people in this family were so cunning.

“I was thinking that Madame Tao Junior has suffered a lot because of me this time. I must send some gifts and money to her to comfort her… But now, I think it will be better to send her some medicine. After Yadan knows what I have sent, he can ask more from the Miao Family,” said Qiu Yelan seriously.

Thinking for seconds, Caiqi suggested discreetly, “You’d better decoct the herb and then send a maid to there with the finished herb. Her house is not far away from here. If you send the raw herb to her, it may be intercepted by someone. She probably can’t even get them.”

“The concubines of Yadan are so unruly?” Qiu Yelan frowned. She intended to ask more while Chen Shui lifted the curtain, reporting, “My lady, He Shuijin is here!”

“Sure enough, she comes,” said Qiu Yelan, stopping asking more questions about the concubines of Yadan. She stood up and said, “Let’s go and meet her.”
