Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife Chapter 146.2

Luo Old Madam walked out from the inner room. In the outer tent, she saw a crowd of dispirited grandsons and granddaughters. After learning that Jing Wan was fine, the worry in her heart was gone, and so naturally that easily irritable feeling disappeared too. “Why don't you all go play.”

Those that were rather young were unable to conceal their inner thoughts, naturally all expressing it on their faces. However, they still silently endured as much as possible. “Grandmother, is third older sister alright?” This came from the fourth branch's di daughter, Luo seventh miss, as she carefully asked.

Luo Old Madam smiled, “Your third older sister is fine, her body is healthy. Although this illness came suddenly, as long as she drinks medicine and rest up, she will recover very quickly.”

“Oh, that's a relief, then we'll go play now, when time comes, we'll bring back good food and fun things for third older sister.”

“Our family's seventh girl has heart, your third older sister didn't love you for nothing.”

Luo seventh miss giddily smiled, and afterwards, ran off with the first branch's sixth miss. The rest also left one after another in twos and threes.

Today's dragon boat race was just the main event. There were still many little games, even ones where the young and old all gather together to play.

Jing Wan couldn't fall asleep, so Luo Old Madam let Sun Yi Jia go in to accompany her.

Hearing Sun Yi Jia talk about some of today's rather popular games, Jing Wan felt her situation was very miserable. Never mind that right now she was limp and unable to move, even if this hour passes and she recovers, and even if her spirit is excellent, she can still only continue feigning illness, unable to even go out and see the dragon boat race. Who let that imperial physician say she fell ill because she came to the waterside and the humidity was too heavy. Since she tacitly acknowledged their explanation, then naturally she can only obediently shrink back.

It was rare for Sun Yi Jia to see Jing Wan with a pitiful little look. Feeling quite amused, she reached out to pinch her nose.

Speaking of which, Sun Yi Jia practically came in contact with Jing Wan everyday, so her body's situation, she couldn't be more clear of. The saying of 'evil air entering the body', previously having no signs and collapsing after coming in contact with heavy humidity, it was just enough to deceive others. There was definitely something fishy inside. However, since Jing Wan didn't say, Sun Yi Jia also didn't ask.

“Elder sister-in-law, no need to stay with me, why don't you go play.”

“It's those same things every year, and only someone like you, where it's your first time coming to the capital, would feel it's novel. After several times, it's just like that. Besides, I'm unable to get along with those people.”

“Ruan Fang Fei is equally as famous as you, but her relations with people is able to be that good, and you? Don't even have a single caring close friend to talk to, aren't you falling a little too short?” Jing Wan unhesitantly teased.

Sun Yi Jia unconcernedly slanted her mouth. That kind of not at all sincere friendship, she didn't care for at all. There were indeed many people that praised and flattered Ruan Fang Fei, but was Ruan Fang Fei able to find someone like how little sister Wan is to her(SYJ), this kind of close friend? Don't joke. For Sun Yi Jia, she would rather go without a best friend than to accept a subpar option. For one that can truly enter one's heart, one was enough. And those that can't be wholeheartedly genuine, even half would be too much. “Your spirit right now is rather good.”

“Really?” Jing Wan lifted her hand. She indeed felt she's recovered quite a bit. “After resting for a little while longer, I'll probably be able to get up.”

Previously she'd appeared to be 'at her dying breath', and after drinking the medicine, in less than an hour, she was able to 'become vigorous and lively' again. Wasn't this medicine too miraculous? This once again confirmed some of her guesses. However, this was also because Jing Wan didn't deliberately conceal it either.

Gong mama just happened to come at this time, coming to take Jing Wan's pulse. Her pulse condition has already returned to normal. Gong mama slightly nodded her head.

Jing Wan smiled.

“Gong mama even has medical skills?” Sun Yi Jia curiously asked.

“Replying to young madam, this servant just has some medical knowledge, and know the few common kinds of pulse conditions. It's far from being considered as medical skills.” In reality, Gong mama, aside from understanding the basics in medicine and proficient in good health maintaining techniques, she had a further understanding of the shameful secret drugs used in the back manor. However, the thing Ruan Fang Fei used today, she didn't have knowledge of. It was clear, her learning was still not enough.

Sun Yi Jia nodded.

As time passed little by little, Jing Wan completely recovered. However, even if she has sat up, she still had her body leaning against the pillow, still cracking melon seeds, while chatting with Sun Yi Jia.

Something like cracking melon seeds, it was still the most fun when doing it on one's own. If it was all taken care of by others, there won't be anymore joy.

Seemingly hearing the sounds coming from the riverside, “The dragon boat race is about to start?”

“It's more or less about time. The dragon boats should've launched into the waters.” Sun Yi Jia explained.

“If miss wants to go see, then just have the recliner lifted out. This while, there isn't any wind, so won't hinder anything.”

Jing Wan knew, Gong mama and Luo Old Madam both wouldn't oppose to her going out, just in other people's eyes, she'll probably leave behind a 'willful' reputation. Well who cares, willful it is, it didn't matter anyways.

Thus, when Jing Wan was lifted out, the people of the Luo family were all relatively surprised. However, they didn't say anything they shouldn't say. Majority of the people all expressed their concerns for her, and the rest didn't say anything. Within the same generation, those that were relatively young all weren't under the tent, probably having all gone to the front.

According to Sun Yi Jia's explanation, on the edge of the river bank, there were even open-air walkways for viewing built, specifically provided for those energetic children. They had quite a bit of freedom today, and as long as they don't go overboard, for the most part, they can go crazy playing.

A crowd of servant girls arrived at the Luo family tent carrying trays. This was seeing if there were anyone wishing to give good luck. On the tray, there were already quite a few things piled up. However, at a glance, one just knew, it was all things used by womenfolk.

This was completely just for fun, so whether one betted or not didn't matter. Of course, there was no lack of those that really want to borrow this opportunity to fiercely gamble a round, perhaps might even cause a real fire.

Jing Wan removed a coiling bracelet inlayed in gemstones from her hand, “Which one is Jin Qinwang's?” For better or worse, he was her future husband, so at this time, she naturally needed to give him face.

One of the servant girls went forward, “Replying to miss, it's this servant.”

However, before she had her tray present over to accept the thing, another servant girl behind her first placed down a brocade handkerchief. It was very obvious, this was wanting to let Jing Wan have her thing placed on top.

Jing Wan slightly raised her eyebrow, somewhat confused.

Even if it's the exceptionally disliked Jin Qinwang, Sun Yi Jia still cover her mouth and teasingly laughed, “This is specially for the 'di wife'. Although you still haven't married over, using it now won't be a problem either. If you don't put out a good luck bet, or perhaps bet on someone else, then there will be a laughing matter to be seen. Jin Qinwang was already twenty-two, yet in the end, sunk down to the same level as the eleventh and twelfth prince, hehehehe……….”

Jing Wan was speechless. Why didn't she remind her earlier!? If she really were to not place a bet, of course, she definitely wouldn't bet on someone else, then wasn't that just letting others laugh at Jin Qinwang? And as the main cause of everything, wouldn't that living Enma tear her apart? This wasn't seeing Jin Qinwang's joke, but rather using her own life to mess around.

Jing Wan had the bracelet placed on there.

The rest of the Luo family all just casually expressed their good luck. However, while everyone was giving Jing Wan face and betting on Jin Qinwang, Luo Jing Ying, who was silent this whole time, instead used the most expensive thing on her to bet on Rui Qinwang.

Everyone's complexion all turned unsightly, yet Luo Jing Ying was just like a carefree person, acting like it was nothing. But, Jing Wan rather didn't mind.

However, another servant girl that was following along diligently had everything all recorded one by one, and afterwards bowed and withdrew.

For them to come to the Luo family's tent, it was mainly still because of Jing Wan.

Once the last gathering reached the imperial tent, one just knew at a glance, the few wangyes in front got the most bets, and the last two princes got the least, with everything all added together equaling about one tray worth of things. As expected, they were just here to make up the numbers.

Kang Qinwang and Rui Qinwang for the most part can be considered evenly matched, totaling ten large trays. Next was Gong Qinwang, and after him, it was Li Hong Yuan that had the most. This last bit was very unexpected. However, it seems to be mostly things commonly used by young people.

Le Cheng Emperor very interestedly asked the reason, and as a result, got told it was because Jin Qinwang knew how to play best, so for this kind of thing, one can't go wrong betting on him.

Le Cheng Emperor tugged the corner of his mouth.

Because the things for each person were all directly in front of the corresponding person, Li Hong Yuan waved his hand at Eunuch Mu behind him, “Bring it over.”

Eunuch Mu was completely able to comprehend his master's meaning, going forward to pick up the brocade handkerchief and return with it, respectfully presenting it up.

Li Hong Yuan took the bracelet without changing his expression, having a piece of blood jade on him replaced back in, and then letting Eunuch Mu put it back.

While everyone all stared at him with a stupefied look, the Great Commander of the Imperial Guards suddenly appeared, breaking the strange silence, “Your Majesty, a corpse was discovered in the river.”
