Episode 15 recap: Yan Nanxing complained to Jiang Xinbai.
Yan Nanxing told Jiang Xinbai that his sister had told his mother about Yan Nanxing getting engaged previously in Hebian, and he didn't know how to tell his mother, wondering if he should just say that Jiang Xinbai was the one who got engaged, and Yan Nanxing was the bride. Jiang Xinbai's mother told Yan Nanxing to preside over the flowing water banquet with Jiang Xinbai, and take the opportunity to find out who Jiang Xinbai's bride was.
Jiang Suolv went out with Yan Nanxing. Jiang Suolv said he just wanted to see who his brother Jiang Xinbai's wife was. Yan Nanxing said he only told Jiang Suolv that he was just a businessman, and had no relationship with Jiang Xinbai. Yan Nanxing came to see Jiang Xinbai and was surprised to see him cooking.
Yan Nanxing told Jiang Xinbai that his sister had told his mother about his previous engagement in Hebian, and he didn't know how to tell his mother, wondering if he should just say that Jiang Xinbai was the one who got engaged, and Yan Nanxing was the bride. Yan Nanxing felt that Jiang Suolv was just against Jiang Xinbai, so it implicated himself. He hurriedly wanted to figure out a way to tell them.
Jiang Suolv was appointed as the Jiaoshou, and Liu Ruoxuan, a student of the Hanlin Academy, also came here. Others below were discussing that Jiang Suolv was the princess of Jiang Jun, and that was why he could come here. Liu Ruoxuan said if they were not satisfied, they should go up and say it directly instead of discussing it below.
Jiang Suolv's father came, and Jiang Suolv felt that only his father cared about him. Jiang Suolv's father said Jiang Xinbai had a sudden matter, and his mother and maternal grandfather went to the palace. Jiang Suolv's father took out the Lianshan Yi, saying it was a gift that Jiang Xinbai had prepared for him long ago.
Jiang Zuiluo did not want to, feeling that he and Jiang Xinbai had always been comparing themselves, and that outsiders also compared their fathers, Xin Shuzhang, the director of the general's office, with Jiang Xinbai's father, thinking that he had married his sister-in-law, climbing high by attaching to the powerful.
Jiang Zuiluo's father stated that in the past, his maternal grandfather wanted to find another husband for his mother, wanting to prove that they no longer had any relationship with Director Xin. But his mother did not want to remarry, and she proposed the marriage herself. They could cherish the memory of the same person without any resentment, and this was the foundation of their feelings. Jiang Zuiluo could not accept this, feeling that he needed to fight for his own dignity.
Jiang Zuiluo's father felt that whatever he said now would be useless, and that one day Jiang Zuiluo would understand that not all care has an ulterior motive. When Jiang Zuiluo reached the point of separation with Shang Bielie, Shang Bielie congratulated Jiang Zuiluo, saying that the news of Jiang Xinbai's marriage had been widely circulated in the capital, and that as long as there was evidence, Jiang Xinbai would be ruined.
Jiang Xinbai's mother told Yan Nanxing that she would soon have a birthday and wanted to hold a flowing water banquet at the manor, asking her to preside over the flowing water banquet with Jiang Xinbai, and to find out who Jiang Xinbai's new bride was. Yan Nanxing did not understand why Jiang Xinbai's mother was so determined to know this, and Jiang Xinbai's mother said that the marriages in their Wang family were political, not love, and the other party must be someone who could please the Emperor.
Yan Nanxing asked Jiang Xinbai's mother what would happen if the Emperor was not satisfied, and Jiang Xinbai's mother said that she could only apologize to that young lady and make her disappear from Jiang Xinbai's side. Yan Nanxing was shocked and dared not say anything more. When Jiang Xinbai went to buy clothes, she described a lot of her characteristics, but was interrupted by the shopkeeper, who said he was asking about the size, not what kind of person she was.
Jiang Xinbai brought the clothes over to Yan Nanxing, but Yan Nanxing did not want to wear them, feeling that it didn't matter if Jiang Xinbai recognized her or not. Soon it was time for the flowing water banquet. Jiang Zuiluo mentioned the matter of his elder brother's marriage, wondering if it was Yan Nanxing, and Yan Nanxing told Jiang Zuiluo not to say such things, as it was not good for his reputation, or else others would think Jiang Zuiluo was a gossip.
Jiang Zuiluo was also very upset after hearing this, and had to stop talking about it.
