NovelEnglish194 Just Get Used to It
Zhao Ruifeng brought Jiang Xi into the main hall, and the 14 concubines sat in the lower seats. At this time, Concubine Yuan suddenly stood up obediently and watched Jiang Xi sit down respectfully, attracting the attention of the other concubines.
Concubine Wen’s mouth moved slightly. She wanted to eat beef jerky and dessert. She touched her stomach. Why did she not feel full even though she had been eating a lot recently?
“Father, drink some tea. Madam, drink some tea.” Zhao Ruifeng and Jiang Xi served tea to Zhao Hongwei and Xiao Meili. Xiao Meili looked a little haggard, probably because she was worried about Zhao Panpan and did not sleep well. Jiang Xi raised her hand for a long time, but Xiao Meili did not take it.

“Ah, it’s so hot!” Xiao Meili was about to take the cup, but the cup suddenly fell when it touched her fingers. To outsiders, it looked like Xiao Meili did not hold it firmly and the tea spilled all over her! At this time, Xiao Meili’s hand was swelling at a speed visible to the naked eye, while Jiang Xi was still looking at her with a silly expression, not knowing what had happened.
“Xixi, are you alright? Madam, if you don’t like Jiang Xi, you don’t have to make things difficult for her. It wasn’t Jiang Xi’s fault that your daughter, Zhao Panpan, embarrassed herself when she went out yesterday.” Zhao Ruifeng nervously pulled Jiang Xi over. Seeing that her hands were not stained with a single drop of tea, he finally relaxed and looked at Xiao Meili.
When Xiao Meili heard Zhao Ruifeng mention Zhao Panpan, her eyes turned red. She could not think too much and got up to leave. Jiang Xi said at this moment, “Take care, Madam. Be careful not to fall.” As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Meili fell on the steps, and Concubine Yuan looked at Jiang Xi with even more respect.
Zhao Hongwei knew that Xiao Meili did not like Jiang Xi, and she wanted to teach Jiang Xi a lesson when Jiang Xi served her tea. He did not like such infighting. He was obviously upset and wanted to go out and have tea with his friends.
During breakfast, Jiang Xi and the others once again witnessed how unruly the Zhao family was. Hong Shan frowned as she looked at the concubines who were eating with them. Were these people worthy of eating with the Young Madam? In other residences, not to mention eating at the table, the concubines were not even worthy to stand behind and serve.
Instead of sitting down, Concubine Yuan stood behind Jiang Xi obediently. Whenever Jiang Xi’s gaze fell on a dish, she would quickly put it on Jiang Xi’s plate. This action made Zhao Ruifeng cast a sidelong glance, but Jiang Xi was very calm. “It’ll be fine once you get used to it.” In the future, the people of the Zhao family would be well-behaved.
“Concubine Yuan really knows the rules. Why don’t I also serve the marquis at the side?” Mei’er was about to stand up with her big belly. Zhao Hongwei was extremely touched and immediately helped Mei’er to sit down.
The meal was finished with all the concubines’ different expressions. After breakfast, the two girls sent by the empress were also brought to Jiang Xi. Jiang Xi did not even look at them and only asked them to wait on her in her room. She wanted to see what the women sent by the empress were capable of.

When Xiao Meili went out, Wu Tielong was helping to count Jiang Xi’s dowry. Xiao Meili seemed to feel something and turned back to look. She only felt that Wu Tielong’s face was full of scars.
“Doesn’t the marquis like servants with good looks the most? How could there be such an ugly person in the residence?” Xiao Meili frowned. She did not know why she subconsciously hated Wu Tielong when she saw him.
“Madam, this is the butler that the Young Madam brought over. I heard that he is quite doted on by the Young Madam,” the maidservant reported with her head lowered.
When Xiao Meili heard this, she chuckled. She could only see that Jiang Xi, who was born in the countryside, even had an unsightly servant.
Just as Xiao Meili turned around to leave, Wu Tielong raised his head and looked at her, his eyes contained a trace of coldness.
At the same time, in the imperial preceptor’s residence… In the early morning, the imperial preceptor felt that something seemed to have changed in Jing City. The sky above Jing City was covered with a layer of dark clouds. The dark clouds covered the sky and could not see the sun. It was as if the blessing that belonged to their country had suddenly disappeared overnight as if it had been cut off by someone.
