“Take out the dishes.” Jiang Ningbao ordered with a warm voice. After speaking, she turned her head to her older brother and waved her hand toward him, “Brother, you returned at the right time. Let’s eat dinner together.”

Jiang Jin : “…..”

Aside from Ningbao, who could eat at the same table as Duke Ding? Jiang Jin looked at his little sister with hidden bitterness. Jiang Ningbao also thought of this and she gave her older brother an embarrassed smile. Then, she let the servant add another table.

The male servant came in holding the dishes.

The dinner was made by the big chef in the small kitchen in the courtyard. The dishes were sumptuous, the meat and vegetables were in pairs and they were exquisite and delicious with an appetizing fragrance in the air.

Jiang Ningbao and Duke Ding sat together and they ate dinner intimately. A few times, one could hear Jiang Ningbao speaking coquettishly to let Duke Ding pick food for her. Jiang Jin, this big brother who just came back, sat at the table by himself. He would also hear his little sister and his future brother-in-law showing affection.

Although in front of him were delicious dishes, Jiang Jin felt that they tasted insipid.

He looked very pitiful.

Duke Ding Xie Heng’s heart was happy. His little lady was eating with him at the same table. As for his future brother-in-law, Duke Ding had long ignored him.

After eating dinner, the sky was dark. Jiang Ningbao elegantly stood under the eaves of a veranda that had many lanterns hung on it. She bid farewell to Duke Ding Xie Heng with reluctance and stood on that spot. Jiang Jin who was at her side spoke with a pungent tone, “Ningbao, it’s very dark outside and the duke’s silhouette is no longer visible. What are you still standing for? It’s time to go back to the room.”

Jiang Ningbao’s face was slightly red and she glared at her older brother with embarrassment. She turned to enter the room while her older brother Jiang Jin laughed silently. He followed her in and naturally sat on the chair and poured tea for him to drink while the candle light illuminated his good looking side face.

Chun Xi gave the third young master tea and fruits and then retreated to the side with Chun Le.

Jiang Ningbao sat beside her older brother as usual and told her older brother Jiang Jin what happened these past few days. Jiang Jin listened with attention and a trace of deep seriousness flashed across his good looking face.

“Ningbao, you did well. What’s left of the second branch is just you and me but that does not mean we’re easy to bully. After her brother passed the provincial examination this year, I will participate in the general examination next year. If I pass the examination, our second branch will stand up again and we won’t need to look at the first branch’s face.”

“Yes, I believe in big brother.” Jiang Ningbao smiled as she nodded.

Jiang Jin of the book took third place in Yang Shuqing’s previous life. After Yang Shuqing got reborn, her older brother was schemed until he was disabled and could not join the examination, regretfully.

What left the deepest impression on Jiang Ningbao was after Yang Shuqing made Jiang Jin into a disabled person, she said, “It’s a pity for Jiang Jin. If he does not have Jiang Ningbao, this venomous little sister, he would be the third place everyone praised like in the previous lifetime.”

When Jiang Ningbao saw these words, she laughed coldly in her heart. If there was no intervention from Yang Shuqing, ‘Jiang Ningbao’ and Jiang Jin’s life would be vastly different.

It was really like a cat weeping over a dead mouse, a fake mercy.

Jiang Jin saw that his little sister believed in him and he felt happy. He was more determined to pass the provincial examination this year but once he thought of the mess in the residence, he could not help but become heavy-hearted, “Ningbao. With the matter of the oldest uncle fainting and getting demoted, also the Buddhist sutra, when the oldest aunt came back, she would not let you off. You have to be careful and don’t fall to her trap.”

Actually, Jiang Ningbao was smarter than Jiang Jin thought, but in Jiang Jin’s, this older brother’s heart, Ningbao was still that soft and fragile little sister who needed protection.

“Brother, as long as the oldest aunt does not return before I get married, she won’t make a ruckus.” Jiang Ningbao’s eyes flashed with a light. The movements of Madam Zhang in Clear Water Temple were in her control.

And now, there was also the oldest uncle who was still unconscious.

“This is a good idea.”

Jiang Jin smiled slightly and he looked at Ningbao with a trace of appreciation. It seemed that after experiencing those things, his little sister had grown up. As long as Madam Zhang was not in the residence, she won’t be a threat. His little sister was protected by Duke Ding and there were many loyal servants in this courtyard. It would be hard to find an opportunity to scheme against Ningbao.

Grandmother was a person of interest. As long as Ningbao was Duke Ding’s fiance, even if grandmother did not like his little sister, she would still protect her. The side that they had to keep their guard against was the first branch.

“Brother, I almost forgot. Oldest aunt sent a few bed servants to your courtyard. You have to be careful to not be schemed against.” Jiang Ningbao recalled this matter and could not help but feel vexed. She had to find a reason to kick out the scheming servants in her older brother’s courtyard.

Jiang Jin couldn’t help laughing and he lightly tapped on his little sister’s head, “Ningbao, you look down on your older brother too much. Is your older brother someone who is easily schemed against?”

“I’m just worried.” Jiang Ningbao glared at her older brother in speechlessness.

“Alright, it’s already late. I will go to Golden Longevity Hall to see grandmother.” Jiang Jin drank his tea, stood up, and left. Jiang Ningbao sent a few male servants to her older brother.

When her older brother Jiang Jin left, Jiang Ningbao went back to her room. Chun Xi and Chun Le immediately called someone to send in hot water. After taking a bath, Jiang Ningbao lied on the soft big bed and could not sleep. Once she closed her eyes, her mind could not help thinking the scene of her in Duke Ding’a embrace and her nose took in the duke’s scent.

Tonight, Duke Ding Xie Heng had a good night sleep while Jiang Ningbao had the rare insomnia.
