Chapter 100: IBMLS Ch.100 You (1)
- I have you.
“Busy, he’s busy again. He has the time to greet the Empress Dowager, he even has the time to go next door to past them some stuff. However, he doesn’t have time to come home.”
Mrs. Jiang frowned when she heard this, she glanced at Jiang Mingwei angrily, raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at the servants around her. The servants understood what she meant, with their hands behind their back, they all went out.
After they backed out, Mrs. Jiang sighed and said to Jiang Mingwei: “Ming Wei, your husband is the head of the family, there were so many people before us just now, how can you say that about Prince Jin?”
“Mother, was I wrong?” Jiang Mingwei seemed to be extremely aggrieved, she held her handkerchief tightly, and complained to Mrs. Jiang, “On the day of the wedding, he didn’t even lift the veil. He heard the news and rushed out with Mu Mingtang. After that, he didn’t come back all night. I heard that he stayed at the Qiyang Manor until pretty late, he then went to the palace to see the emperor. I’m not an unreasonable person, I know on the day of the wedding, that incident was sudden. Suddenly, he had no choice but to take care of that madman. If he only neglected me for a day or two, I could still understand him. But it’s already been a few days? It’s been seven days since we got married, mother, ask the servants in the manor, in the past seven days, did he even ask about me?”
Mrs. Jiang felt sorry for Jiang Mingwei. Indeed, her daughter was newly married, and her husband hasn’t been home for the past seven days. That doesn’t make her look good at all. If she was just an ordinary person, Mrs. Jiang, as his mother-in-law, would for sure lecture him about it, but her husband wasn’t just an ordinary folk.
Mrs. Jiang shouldn’t talk bad about Prince Jin, so she could only change her target to her daughter: “Ming Wei, I know that it isn’t easy for you, but being married and being our daughter back at home is different, you should do everything centered around your husband, be considerate, if you can bear with it then just bear with it. Prince Jin has responsibilities on hand, he isn’t out to go shopping or look for ladies. As a princess, you have to show the tolerance of being a good wife, and help lessen Prince Jin’s worries.
“You don’t think I want to?” Jiang Mingwei’s eyes reddened as she spoke, she couldn’t help but wipe her tears with her handkerchief. “I want to be a good princess. But, he’s not been home for seven days. I slept in our room alone, I went back to my family alone, I instructed the servants alone. I just got married! Mother, do you know what the outsiders are saying about me, those servants in the manor, they don’t say it to my face, but they’re actually laughing at me for not being able to handle the prince. I’ve been waiting all alone in this empty room for seven nights, waiting for him to return.”
This…… Mrs. Jiang was also surprised when she heard her, and couldn’t help but ask: “He’s never come back to sleep in the past seven days?”
“No!” Jiang Mingwei was annoyed and stomped her feet on the footrest, she said embarrassedly and angrily, “Otherwise, why would I be so angry?”
Mrs. Jiang was stunned. After a while, Mrs. Jiang lowered her voice and asked softly: “Then you two, haven’t had sex yet?”
Jiang Mingwei squeezed the handkerchief, she lowered her head and refused to look up at her. Upon seeing this reaction, Mrs. Jiang understood what she meant.
Mrs. Jiang was completely speechless. She was taken aback for a while, and murmured: “You guys haven’t had sex yet. Your father and I only thought that Prince Jin was only out all day, and he’ll come back to sleep at night. But, that’s not it?”
Jiang Mingwei looked away and refused to answer, she was so angry that tears started to fall. Mrs. Jiang felt distressed. She received a message from the maid, who accompanied the bride to her husband’s house, in the morning saying that Jiang Mingwei hasn’t been in a good mood these past days. It just so happened that Jiang Honghao also had something to say to Jiang Mingwei, so Mrs. Jiang sat on his ride and left Jiang’s manor during midday. Just so she could come visit her daughter in Jin Manor. Mrs. Jiang assumed that Jiang Mingwei was only given a cold shoulder and was angry at Prince Jin. She never expected that the two didn’t even have sex yet.
Such treatment was humiliating. Had it not been for Mrs. Jiang who knew that Prince Jin had begged to marry Jiang Mingwei several times, Mrs. Jiang would have thought that the royal family was trying to insult Jiang Mingwei.
