“Yes, Mother.”

Jiang Changbai had been eager to leave for a while. Hearing Xue Yan’s words, he nodded promptly.

After paying his respects to Xue Yan, he quickly said to Jiang Peihuan, “Huan Er, let’s go.”

Jiang Peihuan bowed to Xue Yan and then followed Jiang Changbai out.

Once outside, Jiang Changbai couldn’t help but ask Jiang Peihuan, “Cousin Zhi and Ah Qi both have good personalities. Why is this cousin Ru so different?” “Don’t say anymore. If Mother heard it, wouldn’t it make things difficult for her?”

Hearing Jiang Peihuan’s words, Jiang Changbai remained silent.

By the ti Jiang Peihuan returned to the Plum Garden, it was already deep into the night.

She laid down on her bed, and Xiao Bai crawled into her blanket.

Looking at Xiao Bai, whose only showing its head. Jiang Peihuan playfully tapped its little head, “You can’t just bite people randomly.”

Xiao Bai thought that Jiang Peihuan was playing with it. Looking at her outstretched finger, it stuck out its tongue and licked it.

“Eldest Miss, it’s already very late. You should go to sleep.”

Yue Er moved the charcoal fire to the side, then looked at Jiang Peihuan on the bed and said.

“I know, you should go to sleep too.”

“Yes.”

After the lamp went out, Jiang Peihuan closed her eyes.

In the past, during winters, her hands and feet would always feel cold. After reincarnating, not only did she intensify her training, but she also began to take care of her health. Now, she wasn’t as cold as before.

Winters made everyone feel more sleepy, and Jiang Peihuan was no exception.

As she sat up, she saw Yue Er coming in with hot water.

Seeing Jiang Peihuan sitting up, Yue Er said with a smile, “Eldest Miss, you finally woke up. The old madam sent people to ask about you several tis.” “Really? After freshening up, I’ll visit grandmother in the Chrysanthemum Hall.”

Jiang Peihuan wasn’t into dressing up much. So, after a quick wash, she headed straight to Chrysanthemum Hall.

Before reaching the door, she heard laughter inside.

“Old Madam, this is a token of my appreciation. 1 hope you won’t find it too modest.”

The person who spoke was Liu Xin.

Ever since Liu Xin saved the old madam last ti, the old madam’s attitude towards her had changed a lot. Every ti Liu Xin ca to visit Liu Xiu, the old madam would also call her to the chrysanthemum hall for a chat.

When Jiang Peihuan entered, she saw the old madam holding a forehead ornant, which was elegant and delicately embroidered.

Seeing the ornant in old madam’s hand, Jiang Peihuan said with a soft laugh, “Grandmother, this new ornant suits you very well.”

“This was made by Xin Er. It’s a token of her affection.”

Previously, the old madam looked down on the Liu family for being rchants and didn’t want much contact with Liu Xin. However, after getting to know her, she found Liu Xin very considerate.

Given the wealth of the Liu family, Liu Xin could have easily gifted expensive items. But instead, everything she prepared for the old madam was handmade by her, making it even more precious.

“Xin Er is very skillful.”

“You flatter , Sister Jiang. 1 can only make simple things.”

Seeing Jiang Peihuan co in, Liu Xin stood up and bowed to her.

The old madam handed the item in her hand to Nanny Xu. After that, she waved at Jiang Peihuan, touched her fingertips, and seeing that Jiang Peihuan’s palms were warm, the old madam whispered, “A deer was delivered from the villa yesterday. Deer at tastes best when fresh.”

“Since you’re awake, 1’11 have soone roast the deer at later. You should eat more.”

“Okay.”

Hearing the old madam’s words, Jiang Peihuan nodded with a smile.

“Grandmother, you really are biased. When there’s sothing delicious, you only think of Huan Er and not your grandson.”

The curtain of the main room was directly lifted, and Jiang Changbai, dressed in a dark blue padded jacket, ca to the old madam. Trailing behind him, drenched in sweat, was Jiang Sijin.

Upon entering, Jiang Changbai’s gaze instinctively fell on Liu Xin.

Though Jiang Changbai quickly averted his eyes, the old madam still noticed.

If it had been in the past, she would have disapproved, but after spending ti with Liu Xin, the old madam no longer opposed the idea. Through her lifeti, the old madam has co to realize that Liu Xin’s character is impeccable. “Grandmother, it’s been a while since you’ve seen . Have you missed ?” Jiang Sijin ran to the old madam and held her hand.

Seeing her behavior, the old madam used her handkerchief to wipe the sweat from Jiang Sijin’s forehead, chuckling, “You’re a young lady, yet you behave like a monkey every day.”

“In grandmother’s heart, only my elder sister is the best.”

“You cheeky monkey.”

The old madam tapped Jiang Sijin’s forehead lightly and continued to laugh.

“Old madam, people from King Cheng’s mansion have sent gifts.”

“What did King Cheng send this ti?”

The old madam seems accustod to Cheng Mansion, frequently sending gifts.

A mont later, Han Feng led his n into the Chrysanthemum Hall. Behind him was a little deer that was still bleeding.

After bowing to Old Madam Jiang, Han Feng smiled and said,” Old Madam, this deer was personally hunted by the prince. He said he wanted you to taste sothing fresh.”

“His Highness is very thoughtful.”

Hearing Han Feng’s words, the old madam’s face was full of smiles. She glanced at Nanny Xu, who imdiately went forward and handed Han Feng a pouch.

“Thank you for your reward, Old Madam.”

Accepting the pouch from Nanny Xu, Han Feng expressed his gratitude.

“You’re a favorite of His Highness, so I won’t delay you any further.”

“Eldest Miss, master has also sent sothing for you. He said that he wanted to give it to you personally.”

Hearing this, Jiang Peihuan looked at Old Madam Jiang.” Grandmother, I’ll go over for a while.”

“Go ahead.”

After bowing to the old madam, Jiang Peihuan went outside.

Seeing Han Feng following behind her, Jiang Peihuan asked softly, “Where’s your master?”

It seed she had grown accustod to Xiao Nanye appearing before her daily. Suddenly not seeing him felt a bit unfamiliar.

Hearing her question, Han Feng softly replied, “The master is in the imperial palace.”

“Did the emperor summon him for sothing?”

“Not really. It’s the First Prince and Princess Zhuo Ma of the northern grassland tribes who have entered the palace. The Emperor wants to hold a banquet to entertain them and is discussing this matter with the Master.” “The First Prince of the Northern Border, is it Ha Chi?”

Hearing Han Feng’s words, surprise flashed in Jiang Peihuan’s eyes.

Seeing Jiang Peihuan ntion Ha Chi’s na, astonishnt appeared in Han Feng’s eyes too. He nodded, “Yes, it’s Prince Ha Chi.. How did you know?”
