NovelEnglishBut Mu Mingtang really worked hard and was very obedient. No matter what Mrs. Jiang said, as long as she said it once, Mu Mingtang would never do it for the second time. Mu Mingtang stayed with the Jiang family for slightly more than the year, it was actually the most peaceful year for Mrs. Jiang. Mu Mingtang’s words and actions seemed like her lost daughter, but she was actually much more sensible than her real daughter.
She might just be the perfect daughter that Mrs. Jiang had always dreamed for. She had Jiang Mingwei’s strength, but without Jiang Mingwei’s arrogance and willfulness, Mrs. Jiang couldn’t help but think, if Mu Mingtang was the one sitting here today, Mrs. Jiang would definitely not need to spend so long to convince her daughter. The real deal hasn’t even started yet, but just to comfort her daughter, it already took up much of her time.
Mrs. Jiang didn’t know why but she sighed softly. She thought of the manor next door, the woman who was also a princess and her “daughter”, she couldn’t help but sigh at where fate had led them to.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen she decided to take Mu Mingtang back to the capital, a big part of it was because Mrs. Jiang was overwhelmed by sadness and was heartbroken, she then came up with this solution that in reality wouldn’t solve anything. When they returned, Mrs. Jiang had calmed down, she even thought about giving Mu Mingtang some money and sending her back. Who would have known that Mu Mingtang passed the tests that the Jiang family had arranged for her, even under Mrs. Jiang’s harsh treatment, she persisted through it.
If it weren’t for Mu Mingtang’s sudden rage when she realised that she was forced to marry a living dead, Mrs. Jiang thought that Mu Mingtang had completely changed into her daughter. Mrs. Jiang smiled bitterly and shook her head. A child that was only 14 or 15 years old could act to that extent. She didn’t know whether to exclaim Jiang Honghao and her terrible judgement, or praise Mu Mingtang for her extraordinary temperament.
It is said that only thirty percent of one’s life is destined by fate, the remaining seventy percent is dependent on one’s hard work. Life is so remarkable. Mu Mingtang was originally just a daughter of a merchant, she couldn’t even step in the Daya Hall, but now she has become the number one prince’s wife in the capital. If it wasn’t because Xie Xuanchen was destined to not live a long life, plenty of women would be jealous of Mu Mingtang’s luck.
Mrs. Jiang was also baffled after thinking about this. She must have hit her head real hard, why would she think about these things. Even if that person worked hard for that 70%, if God doesn’t give that person the remaining 30%, nothing can be accomplished. Mingwei, on the other hand, God has given her the 50%, and 30% of her life has already been settled by her family. Jiang Mingwei only needs to complete the 20% by herself.
As for Mu Mingtang, even with such a shockingly good fortune, it was only 1%. The remaining 99%, she was destined to fail.
In Yulin Hall, Mu Mingtang helped Xie Xuanchen to get up from the bed. Xie Xuanchen spent most of the day sleeping. Before this, he could wake up for two hours a day, Xie Xuanchen was able to walk the time of a stick of incense with the support of Mu Mingtang. However, after Xie Xuanchen’s episode a few days ago, his energy was exhausted, and he returned to the state he was when he had just woken up.
Mu Mingtang helped him walk slowly. Xie Xuanchen heard the voices outside and asked, “Who came today, why is it so noisy?”
Mu Mingtang glanced outside and said, “Oh, you’re asking about the noises outside. The palace has sent some rewards today.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMu Mingtang gave as little detail as possible to make him curious, she stopped talking when she reached the important part. She waited for Xie Xuanchen to ask, but she held back for a long time, only to hear Xie Xuanchen’s unbothered “Oh”.
Mu Mingtang endured on for a while, but she couldn’t hold it in anymore, and asked, “Don’t you want to ask me why the reward was sent?”
Xie Xuanchen also looked at Mu Mingtang very strangely: “Is there anything I need to ask. This family is prideful. I’m hanging on my last breath anyway. Before I die, they would for sure want to make themselves look good, to show how compassionate they are.”
Xie Xuanchen snorted after speaking, and said sarcastically: “How predictable.”
Mu Mingtang was bumped out. It turns out that she was the only one from the start who was making a fuss about this. Seeing that the Emperor Dowager had taken the initiative to be kind to Xie Xuanchen, she thought she had encountered something rare, so she eagerly ran over to share with Xie Xuanchen, but Xie Xuanchen had already known that this would happen.
He dared to be so cruel before, it was because from the very beginning, he knew what the emperor would do.
