Chapter 82: Attracting Disaster_5

While she was immersed in thought, she suddenly noticed in the flower bed opposite her two familiar figures.

It should have been an official's daughter with her close maid. The official's daughter was dressed in extreme luxury; just the Enamel Multicolored Lovesickness Hairpin on her head was worth several hundred taels of silver. Among the young ladies who came to the palace banquet today, she could at least be ranked near the top.

I'm tired of hearing their praises, which are nothing more than attempts to pry into my brother's affairs. Can't they see for themselves? My brother is not someone they can just climb up to?"

Jiang Li was initially listening to the girl's complaints with a smile, but upon hearing this, the smile on her lips gradually faded.
