In the main hall of Nangong Mansion, Jinse sat alone, looking at the lively group of people in front of him, bored.
She really didn't expect that a nice return would turn out to be Xie Xiuqi's special event.
Almost everyone in the Nangong family gathered around Xie Xiu, completely unable to remember that she was the real owner today.
Just the men of the Nangong family, not even the women.
Jinse couldn't help but pull Nangong's hand: "Mom, dad and the others are going to seek advice on health care, why are you going?"
Nangong rolled her eyes at Jinse: "Go, let's have some fun, don't delay mother's important events."
Putting Jin Se aside, she stepped forward and said, "Son-in-law, I have a lot of wrinkles on my face recently, and I don't know why..."
Good guy, you even know how to do beauty treatments?
Jinse was completely convinced.
At this moment, Nangong An came walking in the light, saw Jin Se at a glance, and waved to her.
Jinse was inexplicably moved. Her grandfather was better, wise and resourceful, unlike others who were easily coaxed into forgetting by Xie Xiuqi.
She came to Nangong An in a few steps. Before Nangong An could speak, he started coughing.
Jinse felt so distressed that she turned around and left: "Grandpa, let me get you a glass of water."
Nangong An waved his hand: "Ahem, cough, no need for you, Xie Xiuqi is there, just call him over."
Jinse: Then...shall I go?
Watching Nangong An and Xie Xiuqi leave, staring at the backs of the old and the young, standing and sitting in an unusually harmonious manner, the bright red lips curled up.
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen Nangong’s house so lively.
The men of the Nangong family have been disabled and retired from the battlefield one by one. Although they still try to maintain the appearance of macho men, they cannot deceive the family members who live with them.
Whether they are men or women, they have been silent for a long time in recent years.
Now I have found a reasonable sustenance.
It doesn't matter whether she was left out or not.
"Jin'er," a hand fell on his shoulder, and Nangong's eyebrows were raised, "I know you have a naughty temper and are used to bullying others. Now that we are married, you cannot bully the third prince!"
Jinse's smile froze, forget it, she'd better give Xie Xiuqi a good beating.
Nangong didn't know that the daughter she was educating was filled with violent images and was still nagging her.
At this time, Jinse, who had sharp ears, heard the noise coming from outside the door, and stood up excitedly as if he had found help.
"There's some trouble outside, I'm going to take a look."
Her actions alerted the others, who followed her out.
In the courtyard, Nangong Yu stared with a pair of almond-shaped eyes, followed by a pretty maid.
"Come here, you all come out to make judgments. Why are you all going after my sister? She can marry the third prince if she wants, but you don't allow me to marry the second prince if I want?"
The maid also stepped forward: "Master, madam, how could you do this to the young lady?"
"Do you know what people outside are saying about the young lady today? They say that the young lady and the second prince had an affair without a matchmaker and moved in without even getting married."
"The young lady has been crying all day long. I feel sad when I see it. Don't you feel sad?"
Nangong exclaimed: "Xiao Hong, I also said that you disappeared. It turned out that you went to the Second Prince's Mansion with Yu'er."
She suddenly realized: "I asked why Yu'er has a close relationship with the second prince, but no one has ever told me about it. Is it because you have been helping her hide it from me?"
Xiao Hong: "The young lady and the second prince truly love each other. I am doing this for the good of the young lady. Unlike you, a bunch of sanctimonious people."
Nangong Yu was supported by Xiao Hong and stepped forward to hold her hand tightly, with tears in her eyes.
"They all look towards Sister A. Fortunately, I still have you."
Nangong's father was so angry that he covered his chest. He didn't even want to talk to Nangong Yu anymore and asked directly:
"What did you want to do here today?"
Nangong Yu held her head high: "I want to marry from the Nangong family and marry Brother Xiu Ming in a dignified manner."
"Also, sister doesn't regard me as a relative." At this point, she felt aggrieved.
"My dowry was used by her, and she deliberately laughed at me. Instead of saying she was grateful for brother Xiuming's kindness in trying to save her, she repaid her favor with revenge and framed brother Xiuming."
"I want her to apologize to me and give me a dowry."
What Nangong Yu said was reasonable.
Over the years, she has grown up under the pampering of Nangong Jinhe's parents.
She thinks that everything should belong to her, and as long as she asks, they should do it for her.
Jinse sneered, which echoed through the entire courtyard.
"Nangong Yu, I do think you are my sister, but if you don't tell me, what has your sister done?"
She stared at Nangong Yu with an imposing manner:
"The person who reported me for enlisting my daughter in the army was He Fang, Princess Ronghua's consort, and Xie Xiuming's brother-in-law."
"Why don't you explain to me how he knew my true gender?"
The sound of the harp was like a sharp knife, and each word was like a pearl. After a few words, the backyard fell into silence, with only the sound of the wind echoing.
"I..." Nangong Yu's face suddenly turned pale, and he kept shaking his head, "I don't know, don't slander me..."
Although she tried her best to deny it, anyone with a discerning eye could see her guilty conscience.
Nangong's father was in disbelief, and his disappointed eyes turned into reality and were projected on Nangong Yu:
"Yu'er, it was you who told outsiders Jin'er's gender?"
Others have different opinions.
"Yu'er, you disappoint me so much."
"How could you do such a thing?"
"Explain quickly, I don't believe you would do such a thing."
In the noisy questioning, Nangong Yu collapsed and screamed:
"That's enough! Brother Xiu Ming is not an outsider!"
Realizing that she had been exposed, Nangong Yu shed tears and said while crying:
"I didn't mean it, not to mention that Brother Xiu Ming couldn't harm me. Besides, if I hadn't insisted on disguising myself as a man and joining the army, how could I have committed the crime of deceiving the emperor?"
Nangong's father looked at Nangong Yu, who felt strange to him, and couldn't help but think of the scene when Nangong Jin went to the battlefield.
At that time, the barbarians did not know why, but they were like God's help and broke through several border cities. In addition, there was a severe drought in the country that year, and they were unable to resist.
If Nangong Jin hadn't stepped forward, perhaps the country of Jing wouldn't be as peaceful and healthy as it is today.
He couldn't help but said: "If it weren't for your sister to win the war, do you think you can still be here with peace of mind, crying about the marriage and dowry issues?"
Nangong Yu didn't think so. How difficult could it be for a woman to win a battle?
Nangong Jin just happened to catch up, it was the Jing Kingdom and the Nangong family that overly mythologized her.
They are all women, so why should Nangong Jin have the right to take charge of the family? It's really partial.
Seeing Nangong Yu's disapproving look, Nangong's father waved his hand.
"That's all, I agree to your marriage to the second prince. You ask him to find a matchmaker and you two can choose a date to get married."
After saying these words, Nangong's father instantly aged ten years, and his usually straight back became bent.
After receiving a positive reply, Nangong Yu happily went back to tell Xie Xiuming the good news without even looking back.
