Chapter 39 -39 This Melon is Too Explosive!

[The acting is so good, even passersby can’t stand it anymore, a good omen!]

Jiang Leyi’s eyes carried a hint of helplessness. Although she did not know why Jiang Nanshu wanted everyone to dislike her, Jiang Leyi felt that her nature wasn’t bad.

“Aunt Chu, my sister didn’t mean any harm, she has a good temperament,” Jiang Leyi couldn’t help speaking up for Jiang Nanshu.

Jiang Nanshu: “?”

Where did this good person filter come from? She was so malicious and still thought she was good?!

Jiang Nanshu sneered disdainfully, “Don’t pretend to be a good person here, I’m not buying your act.”

[No wonder she will be manipulated by all sorts in the future, just because she is naive and kind. Such a tragic fate for a good person.]

Jiang Leyi: “?!.”

What? It wasn’t just that male actor manipulating her?!

A noble lady scoffed, “Shuling, your daughter really needs to be taught a lesson, she has learned a bunch of bad temper from the countryside.”

Jiang Nanshu directly disagreed. Why were those from the countryside deemed to have bad tempers?

She arched her eyebrows and flashed a stunning smile, looking somewhat disdainful, “Auntie, who are you? This is between Jiang Leyi and me, what does it have to do with you?”

The noble lady’s pale face turned red with anger, pointing at Jiang Nanshu, “Just as I thought, so rude and crude coming from the countryside.”

[How rude I am is none of your business, and it’s not like you have to like me.]

Mrs. Jiang was already displeased, particularly with the noble lady.

No matter what, Jiang Nanshu was her daughter. From the moment she arrived, the noble lady kept disparaging her as crude and uncouth, completely disregarding her.

She held back her displeasure, but the upbringing of the gentry was ingrained in her bones; she couldn’t just slap her face on the spot.

But she couldn’t let others look down upon the Jiang Family’s upbringing either. She valued face above all, so she sternly said to Jiang Nanshu, “Nannan, you can’t be so rude, quickly apologize to your Aunt Chu Xin.”

Fearful that Jiang Nanshu wouldn’t know.

Jiang Leyi coldly explained from the side, “Aunt Chu is Chu Muxi’s mother, you haven’t met her, it’s normal not to recognize.”

Jiang Nanshu then came to a realization.

Upon hearing it was Chu Muxi’s mother, a bunch of plot points sprang from the depths of her mind

Chu Xin and Mrs. Jiang were such good friends that they were like sisters, and Chu Muxi and Jiang Leyi were childhood friends who grew up together, maintaining a good relationship between the two families.

The Chu Family was also wealthy, though significantly less so than the Jiang Family.

Chu Muxi’s father had married into the family and was no great businessman; Chu Muxi’s grandfather had chosen him for his honest nature, not expecting him to have a wandering heart, thus he allowed him to marry his only daughter.

Regrettably, Chu Muxi was born with congenital asthma. Despite her clever and elegant appearance, no wealthy households would consider marrying someone with an illness that made childbearing difficult.

In wealthy aristocratic circles, continuation of the family line and inheritance was paramount.

Over the years, after Chu Muxi’s grandfather’s death, the Chu Family had been on a decline, and the daughter remained unmarried, which became a sore point for Chu Xin.

In her eyes, the best marriage prospect was Lu Qingyan.

Thus, seeing Jiang Nanshu, she was extraordinarily hostile, mocking her for being uncouth growing up in the countryside.

Jiang Nanshu glanced at her stern-faced mother, then at the expectant, delicate face of Chu Xin waiting for an apology, and couldn’t help but laugh.

It was all too amusing.

She shifted her tone, noticeably more compliant, “Aunt Chu, I spoke too harshly, it’s all my mother’s fault for not introducing me to such a wonderful friend of hers. I really envy you for having such a great friend as my mom to stand up for you.”
