Chapter 258 Master Xiao Jiang is too naughty
Jiang Yueyang was just about to ask who had the melon when Duke Su came rushing over after hearing the news, and then the man who had been arrogant to the housekeeper before became timid.
Duke Su looked at the family with a sullen face, "I heard that you are not satisfied with the positions I arranged for you?"
"No." The leading woman immediately denied it. "They are just children who don't understand. Don't blame me, brother-in-law."
Duke Su snorted coldly, "If you dare to act rashly at the banquet today, don't blame me for being rude to you!"
The woman smiled and said that she would definitely discipline them, but there was a hint of viciousness in her eyes.
Duke Su didn't want to waste any more words with him, so he looked away and happened to see Jiang Yueyang, a bystander.
Jiang Yueyang met his gaze, smiled and raised her hand towards him as a greeting.
Duke Su walked towards her and sat down next to her.
He glanced around the venue and didn't see Minister Jiang and his wife. "Aren't your parents here yet?"
"Duke Su, I'm so sorry. My mother wasn't feeling well before she left, and my father stayed home with her, worried about her. That's why they can't come today."
"It's okay, it's okay. Health is important."
"Thank you, Duke Su, for your understanding."
Over there, the family of Duke Su's sister-in-law saw how much Duke Su cared about a little girl like Jiang Yueyang, and they couldn't help but become curious about Jiang Yueyang's identity.
"Mom, who is that girl? She's so pretty."
The woman glared at him sideways, "Put away your inappropriate thoughts! A girl who can sit in that position must be of extraordinary status!"
The man didn't care, thinking, wouldn't it be better if they had a higher status? If so...they wouldn't have to worry about their uncle's face anymore.
At this time, there was a loud noise coming from behind.
Jiang Yueyang and Duke Su looked over when they heard the sound, and then saw the Crown Prince, the eldest princess, the third prince and the fifth prince walking in.
The officials and their wives who had already taken their seats hurriedly stood up and tried to salute them, but the Crown Prince raised his hand to stop them, "No need for formalities, everyone."
Duke Su walked up to the four people and personally led them to their seats.
The Crown Prince sat in the first seat in the first row for male guests, followed by the Third Prince and the Fifth Prince.
The eldest princess was arranged to sit in the first row of female guests, with Jiang Yueyang sitting below her.
Judging from the direction Duke Su was walking, he originally intended to let the prince sit on the upper seat, but it seemed that the prince refused.
The third prince raised his eyebrows at Jiang Yueyang who was sitting opposite him. Jiang Yueyang rolled his eyes and looked away.
After a while, high-ranking officials such as the Duke of England and Lord Wei also arrived one after another.
When the gong sounds, the auspicious time has arrived.
Duke Su stood at the top and addressed everyone, "Today is my little girl's family reunion banquet. I am grateful for your kindness in attending. Here, I would like to offer a toast to you all."
After he finished speaking, Duke Su picked up a glass of wine, and everyone present raised their glasses and drank it all.
Duke Su said again, "Now let me come out and briefly introduce myself to you all."
After a while, Qiao Xi came out with Qiao Yuanyuan, who was dressed in gorgeous clothes.
Two people who look exactly the same standing on the stage at the same time make it difficult to tell them apart.
Qiao Xi whispered to Qiao Yuanyuan, "Yuanyuan, say hello to everyone, just like your sister taught you before."
Qiao Yuanyuan nodded nervously, then stepped forward, knelt, and saluted, saying, "Yuanyuan greets everyone here. I hope everyone has fun and enjoys their meal today."
Everyone sat down and returned the greeting, "Miss Qiao Er."
The call of "Second Miss Qiao" completely confirmed Qiao Yuanyuan's identity.
Afterwards, the wife of Duke Su brought the Qiao Xi sisters down to meet the ladies and young ladies, while Duke Su brought his son to entertain the male guests.
The eldest princess and Jiang Yueyang were not good at socializing, so they simply said a few words to the wife of Duke Su and ended the conversation.
Jiang Yueyang was eating and watching the lively scene around her with relish, when she suddenly felt an uncomfortable gaze falling on her.
Turning around, she saw that it was the man from Duke Su's sister-in-law's family. She frowned, feeling disgusted.
The eldest princess beside her noticed Jiang Yueyang's strange behavior, followed her gaze, and immediately understood a little.
The princess said calmly, "Fuling, go over and give them a warning. How dare anyone have such thoughts?"
"promise!"
Jiang Yueyang smiled and said, "Thank you, Princess."
The eldest princess hummed in a reserved manner, "Jiang Yueyang, you must recognize your own identity."
"Ok?"
"Besides being Lord Xiao Jiang, you're also the Princess Yongle, personally appointed by our father!" The eldest princess' tone was somewhat disappointed. "You're a Princess, but it's as if you haven't even been one."
Jiang Yueyang smiled awkwardly. She thought the princess was angry because she asked her to recognize her identity.
"The princess has taught me a lesson. From now on, I will recognize my own identity!"
Over there, the family of Duke Su's sister-in-law was severely beaten by the eldest princess's maid.
Upon seeing this, Duke Su sent someone to inquire about the matter. After learning the whole story, he was so angry that his face turned blue.
"When the party is over, I'll punish them!"
After filling his stomach, Jiang Yueyang felt bored, so he asked about the melon that the system had mentioned before.
[Little Melon, you said there was a melon here before. Who has the melon?]
After these words were spoken, the officials present accepted them well and continued to talk with the people around them.
Those visitors from afar who were unaware of what was going on didn't take the words seriously, thinking they were just talking about fruits.
System said: [There are so many melons, who should the host listen to? ]
Do you have any suggestions?
[I mainly recommend three melons. The first is the wretched man who just coveted the host, the second is the youngest son of the Duke of Ying, and the third is Lord Ke, the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice.]
Jiang Yueyang thought for a moment and then asked, "Little Melon, whose melon do you want to eat the most?"
[Of course it's the wretched man! ]
[Okay! Then we'll eat the melon of the Duke of England's youngest son!]
Most of the people present laughed, hahahaha... Lord Xiao Jiang is so naughty!
The rest of the people looked confused. Doesn’t “eating melons” mean eating fruits?
And... who's talking?
The Duke of England looked at his youngest son with sympathy and said, "Don't be afraid, it will be over soon."
Facing the gazes of the people around him, Young Master Tang lowered his eyes uneasily.
The system, which had quickly sorted out the melons of the obscene man, crashed for a long time before it regained its voice.
[…Host, you are a real dog! ]
Jiang Yueyang curled the corners of her lips and said, "Hurry up."
The system asked: [Host, do you still remember the melon from His Royal Highness Prince Huan?]
【Hmm, what's wrong? 】
Upon hearing this, the four royal family members present raised their eyelids slightly and looked at Jiang Yueyang.
System: [If His Royal Highness Prince Huan is a top-tier love-brained person, then Young Master Tang is a rare bootlicker in the world.]
Jiang Yueyang raised her eyebrows slightly, [What do you mean?]
