Chapter 1256: Liveliness

Wen Yujing couldn’t sit still after the siblings left.
Jiang Zhennan, that bastard, would return to the residence. She was afraid that something unexpected would happen.
Then, she said to Jiang Yunfeng,” Master, I’ll go take a look!”
Because Jiang Zhennan had returned today, Jiang Yunfeng’s face had been gloomy the entire day. At this moment, his old face was even gloomier.
He said,” Let’s go together!”
When the two of them walked out together, before they could see anyone, they heard a woman’s voice say to their children,” Oh, so the door isn’t broken. It’s because of your orders that you specifically forbade these servants from opening it. It’s to prevent the eldest son of the Zhengguo Duke’s Estate from returning to the residence. Hehe, the upbringing of the children of the Duke is really an eye-opener! If word got out, who knew how the outsiders, especially the nobles in the capital, would view the Duke and his wife?”
In reality, even if Jiang Zhennan was the eldest son of the Zhengguo Duke’s Estate, it was only a family matter if he was not the heir. Most people would mock this situation behind closed doors.
However, Jiang Zhennan’s identity was not ordinary.
Other than being the eldest son of the Duke, he also had another identity that many people could not match up to. He had a lofty status that was the Defender General.
Therefore, in order to please Jiang Zhennan, the people in the circle would definitely find fault with Jiang Yunfeng.
He ordered the servants not to open the door and let the eldest son, the heir of the title, use the right door. Once this matter spread, Jiang Yunfeng would definitely be criticized by everyone, and he would not have any face to parade in the upper-class circle.
The Duke was so angry that his face turned ashen. He walked over in three or two steps angrily.
He looked at the Jiang siblings and asked knowingly,” What happened?”
When the siblings heard their father’s question, their minds immediately went blank. They did not know what their father meant.
When Wen Yujing saw Jiang Yunfengs attitude and behavior, she immediately understood that Jiang Yunfeng wanted to push the blame on the siblings. She immediately gritted her teeth in anger.
He had clearly agreed to their suggestion for Jiang Zhennan to use the servant’s door, but now he was acting like he didn’t know. How hypocritical.
However, when she saw the two doors that had fallen to the ground and saw Jiang Zhennan and Lin Yuelan walking into the courtyard as if nothing had happened, the anger she felt towards Jiang Yunfeng disappeared again.
That’s right, rather than letting the people denigrate Jiang Yunfeng and causing the Zhengguo Duke’s Estate to lose face, it would be better to push the blame onto the two children. Although this would still cause some criticism, it was at least better than putting the blame on Jiang Yunfeng. At least Jiang Yunfeng represented the Zhengguo Duke’s Estate, while the two children only represented them.
However, she still had to think of a strategy to push this away.
Wen Yujing lowered her head slightly and pondered for a moment. Then, she immediately walked forward with a smile and said to Jiang Zhennan very kindly, “Nan ‘er, you’re back! You see, Mother didn’t know that you were coming back at this time. Otherwise, I would have gotten the servants to repair these two somewhat old doors. However, I didn’t expect that your second brother and sister actually misheard. They thought that they were asking the servants not to open the door and not let you in! Of course, your brother and sister were just joking with you.”
Then, Wen Yujing turned around and gave Jiang Zhenye and Jiang Wen a look, hinting that they should follow her instructions.
Jiang Wen was smart and knew how to read people’s expressions. When she saw her parents ‘expressions, she immediately understood that they wanted to push the responsibility to the siblings. She immediately spat out anger in her heart, but she could only endure it.
This was because the ones who had to bear the responsibility were their parents.
Jiang Wen received her mother’s signal and immediately smiled.” Big Brother,
I was just joking with you. Please don’t take offense!” Compared to Jiang Wen, Jiang Zhenye was a dummy.
Jiang Zhenye had looked down on Jiang Zhennan. Jiang Zhennan never cared about it. This made Jiang Zhenye assume that Jiang Zhennan was trying to curry favor with them so that he could return to the Duke’s estate.
Over the past few months, Jiang Zhennan had proven through his actions and words that he despised everyone in the Zhengguo Duke’s Estate and did not care about the Jiang family’s blood relations. As long as they made a move, he would immediately retaliate. Otherwise, Jiang Zhenye wouldn’t have married Zeng Yanli, whose reputation had been ruined.
Unfortunately, Jiang Zhenye, who was high and mighty in front of Jiang Zhennan, did not have such awareness.
Therefore, when he heard his father, mother, and sister say those words, he was completely dumbfounded. He could not understand why things had become like this.
He couldn’t figure it out. However, he was furious. He suddenly shouted,” What are you talking about? We just told the servants not to open the door and let him walk in from the right door like a servant! Father, mother, you were the ones who said that. Also, even if we did that, what could he do to us?
Jiang Zhenye’s roar had completely destroyed the reputation of the Duke’s estate!
Lin Yuelan raised her hand and clapped a few times.
Then, she turned around and said coldly to the crowd standing outside,”
Everyone, did you hear it? They clearly knew that the eldest son of the Zhengguo Duke’s Estate would return today, but the second young master of the Zhengguo Duke’s Estate had personally admitted that they had specially closed the door and allowed the dignified eldest son of the Dukes Public House, the guardian general of the Longyan Kingdom, to return to his residence through the door on the right. Were they humiliating the general of the State of Guanguang? Were they bullying Brother Nan for not having a mother to protect him?”
Today was the day that the War God Great General Jiang Zhennan had returned to the Dukes estate. Many commoners had arrived at the entrance of the Duke’s estate early in the morning to watch the show.
It was indeed as they had expected-lively.
When the general arrived at the entrance of the manor, there was actually no door to enter.
However, what shocked them was that the Great General had actually ordered his subordinates to violently knock down the two doors that were tightly shut. Then, he walked into the Duke’s estate in a grand manner.
Lin Yuelan turned around and looked at the door. Jiang Yunfeng and his wife, as well as Jiang Zhenye and his sister, realized that the space beyond the damaged door was already filled with people.
At this moment, the expressions on the faces of the four of them became exceptionally interesting. They thought to themselves, “Oh no!”
They had never expected that so many commoners would be gathered at the gate so early in the morning..
