“Second Madam, our King and Queen have examined the upcoming dates. In ten days, there is an auspicious day that comes only once in a hundred years. Why not set the wedding of the prince and the second miss for that day?”

Overhearing Zhou Ronghua’s words, Zhao Yong immediately joined the conversation.

Although Zhou Ronghua also hoped that Jiang Ruyun could marry into the Huainan King’s Mansion as soon as possible, she was not unreasonable. Hearing the proposed ten-day timeline, her eyes revealed hesitation, “Isn’t ten days too hasty?”

When a young lady from a noble family gets married, preparations usually begin a year in advance. In these ten days, there wouldn’t even be enough time to prepare the dowry.

“Second Madam, there was no need to rush initially. However, other than that date, it would be half a year before another auspicious day comes along.”

“Considering the current situation, I believe the Second Young Lady cannot afford to wait for half a year.”

“Well…”

“In that case, let’s set it for ten days from now.”

“Second Madam is truly sensible. Since that is the case, I will immediately report back to the King and Queen.”

As he spoke, Zhao Yong glanced at Zhao Fuqing..

The latter quickly stood up from his chair and gave a perfunctory nod to the Second Madam before leaving.

“Huanhuan, do you think this is too rushed?”

After Zhao Fuqing and the others left, Zhou Rongfang turned to Jiang Peihuan and asked.

Jiang Peihuan did not want to say a word.

She looked at Zhou Rongfang and replied directly, “Isn’t it too rushed? Didn’t Second Aunt already agree? Since that’s the case, we should focus on preparing Ruyun’s dowry.”

“Now that Ruyun’s wedding has been settled, I’ll go inform Grandmother.”

After speaking, Jiang Peihuan didn’t glance at Zhou Rongfang again, and went straight to the Chrysanthemum Hall with Ye Xiao and Cui Er.

In the Chrysanthemum Hall.

“Is she eager to marry off her daughter?”

When Old Madam Jiang heard Jiang Peihuan’s words, she couldn’t help but curse in anger.

Seeing the old madam’s furious expression, Jiang Peihuan comforted her softly, “Grandmother, the outcome won’t change. What we can do now is to properly arrange Ruyun’s wedding and not let it be too simple.”

“Sigh.”

Old Madam Jiang let out a long sigh and said nothing more.

“Huan Er, things haven’t been going well at home lately. Tomorrow, I’ll take you and your sisters to Lingyun Temple to offer incense.”

“First, I want the Bodhisattva to bless our children with smooth lives. Second, your father will be back soon, and I wish for the Bodhisattva to protect them for a safe return.”

“Alright, I’ll discuss it with Third Aunt and make thorough arrangements.”

“Okay.”

Initially, the internal affairs of the Jiang Residence were managed by Xue Yan. Since Xue Yan was absent, the responsibility fell on Zhou Rongfang.

But now, as Zhou Ronghua was busy, Jiang Peihuan went directly to Liu Xiu’s garden.

The three branches of the Jiang family had not separated, and Jiang Ren and Liu Xiu lived in the courtyard on the west side. Liu Xiu’s courtyard was called Elegant Garden.

When Jiang Peihuan, accompanied by Ye Xiao and Lu Er, arrived at the entrance of Elegant Garden, she saw Liu Xiu waiting there.

“Third Aunt, why are you standing at the door waiting for me?”

After bowing, Jiang Peihuan quickly supported Liu Xiu.

Hearing her words, Liu Xiu smiled softly, “It’s not often you visit, so I wanted to welcome you.”

“Let’s go. I’ve prepared some pastries, though I’m not sure if they’ll suit your taste.”

As she followed Liu Xiu inside, Jiang Peihuan discreetly observed the Elegant Garden.

The garden, much like Liu Xiu, exuded elegance in every detail.

In her previous life, influenced by those around her, Jiang Peihuan had looked down on Liu Xiu’s background as a merchant’s daughter and rarely interacted with her.

However, after she had faced difficulties, Liu Xiu was willing to help her.

Recalling the kindness from her past life, Jiang Peihuan’s expression grew warmer, “I’ve always heard Third Aunt has an elegant demeanor. It’s truly so.”

“You’re teasing me, dear. Come and sit.”

Instead of going inside, Liu Xiu led Jiang Peihuan to sit in the courtyard, where a table with pastries and tea had already been set.

After sitting down, Liu Xiu personally handed her a piece of pastry, “Try it.”

The pastry in Liu Xiu’s hand was shaped like a plum blossom, small and delicate. Jiang Peihuan took it and gently bit into it.

She wasn’t fond of pastries, often finding them too greasy. However, this pastry wasn’t overly sweet and carried a hint of plum blossom fragrance.

“How is it?”

“This pastry tastes wonderful. Where did Third Aunt buy it? I’d like to buy some for Grandmother later.”

“Young Miss, I’m afraid you won’t find these pastries for sale.”

“Oh?”

Liu Xiu’s wet nurse, Nanny Liu, stepped forward. After bowing, she smiled and said, “Madam made this pastry herself.”

“Third Aunt, you’re truly talented.”

“It’s just a small skill. If you like it, I’ll make more and have the maids deliver them to your garden.”

“Thank you, Third Aunt.”

“Third Aunt, I came to see you today to discuss our visit to Lingyun Temple to offer incense tomorrow.”

After setting down the pastries in her hand, Jiang Peihuan began to discuss the matter at hand. However, upon hearing this, Liu Xiu’s eyes filled with doubt. “Huan Er, shouldn’t we discuss this with Second Sister-in-law?”

“Yun Yun’s wedding is scheduled for ten days from now. During this time, Second Aunt will likely be too busy to manage household affairs. So, Grandmother and I think it’s best for Third Aunt to handle these matters during this period.”

“I’ve never managed the internal affairs of the residence before. I’m afraid I won’t do well.”

“Third Aunt, don’t be modest. You come from the Liu Family, so these matters should be no trouble for you.”

Others might not know, but Jiang Peihuan who had been reborn was well aware of her third aunt’s capabilities.

As the only young daughter of the Liu family, she was not only proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting but also excelled in business.

“In that case, I’ll do my best.”

After agreeing to visit Lingyun Temple to offer incense with Liu Xiu, Jiang Peihuan left with her servant.

As she left, Liu Xiu whispered to hers nanny, “Do you think Huan Er has been treating me differently lately? It seems like we’ve grown much closer.”

“Eldest Miss has always had a good relationship with Third Master since childhood. Now that you’re familiar with each other, it’s natural to be close.”

“You’re right. If only I could have a daughter like Huan Er in the future.”

“It would also be nice to have a son like Young Master Song Bai.”

Liu Xiu’s smile deepened at the thought of her son.

“Elder Sister, Elder Sister…”

Jiang Peihuan had just stepped out of Elegant Garden when she saw a young boy running straight towards her.

The boy wore a sapphire blue robe, his forehead covered in sweat. He was Liu Xiu’s son, the youngest of the Jiang family, Jiang Songbai.

“You must have just come back from school, running and sweating so much.”

Taking a handkerchief from her sleeve, Jiang Peihuan gently wiped Jiang Songbai’s sweat, her eyes filled with tenderness.
