Marriage of the Di Daughter Chapter 77 Part 5: Feast
Jiang You Yao heard and two red clouds flew up her cheeks. Since everyone was now aware of her and Zhous heirs matter, she did not have to avoid and only shyly lowered her head without saying anything.
Jiang Yue however, was totally shocked. She already knew early on that Jiang You Yao and Zhou Yan Bang would sooner or later be fulfilled. But she didnt expect it to be this quick. Zhou Yan Bang was Ningyuan Marquiss heir; Ningyuan Marquis only had this one heir. In the future, the entire Ningyuan Marquiss mansion would all be his. Jiang You Yao married over and would be the one managing the household and would immediately become the marchioness. Moreover, the Ningyuan Marquiss heir, Zhou Yan Bang, was known as the beautiful man of Yanjing city, multi-talented with a gentle temperament. Her life after Jiang You Yao married over would definitely be very good.
Jiang You Yao was about to marry a good man; Jiang Yue couldnt help thinking of herself. Her father was just a school secretary, no need to mention how humble his official rank was. In the Jiang family, he was just a concubine-born son who did not have a close relationship with the eldest uncle or the second uncle. Even though she put great effort in fawning over Ji Shuran, Ji Shuran certainly wouldnt care too much about her marriage. There were very few people who could help her with her marriage. In any case, she couldnt expect to have such an ideal husband like the one Jiang You Yao was going to marry.
Jiang Yue thought of her future destiny and couldnt help sighing in her heart. Theres resentment as well as unwillingness.
Lu-shi said with a smile: You Yao really has good fortune, Zhou heir is someone that everyone in Yanjing wants to marry into their family. But eldest sister in law, she asked, looking deeply concerned: dont forget that Li-er is also a member of our Jiang family. Li-er is the elder sister, her marriage is not yet decided but You Yaos marriage has been decided earlier. It will unavoidably incur some gossip.
This sentence was a bit subtle. Everyone knew that Jiang You Yaos marriage originally belonged to Jiang Li. Jiang You Yao was just a turtledove occupying the magpies nest, she just seized other peoples opportunity.
Old madam Jiang closed her eyes slightly, turning a deaf ear towards the two daughter in lawss fight. She had long been familiar with the scene currently playing before her eyes. Ji Shuran looked gentle and soft on the outside, but she actually had iron hands. Lu-shi was both vain and ambitious. Its unavoidable for these two people to block each other when they gather. When all was said and done, its merely harmless little fights and its fine as long as it didnt affect the overall situation.
Thank you for younger siblings concern. Ji Shuran appeared as if she didnt hear the sarcasm in Lu-shis words. She replied politely: Master also asked me to pay attention to Li-ers marriage, its also the worry in my heart. With Li-ers age, it should be the time for her to have a marriage agreement. Its just that at the moment, theres no one proposing marriage yet; I also havent found a good one and am reluctant to marry Li-er in a hurry. If younger sibling has a good candidate, please let me know. I will let master to personally look him over. After all, its Li-ers major affair, I dont dare to lightly decide. Its better to let mother and master to look over it.
Ji Shuran deftly avoided the words of Jiang You Yao forcibly taking someones marriage away while disparaging Jiang Li seamlessly. She said that there were many females in the family; Jiang Li had returned to Yanjing for so long yet nobody had come to the door to propose marriage to Jiang Li. Other people look down on Jiang Li, its impossible for the Jiang family to take the initiative and send their daughter over. Afterwards, she mentioned that Jiang Lis marriage was entirely pushed onto old madam Jiang and Jiang Yuan Bais hand, removing herself cleanly.
As luck would have it, Jiang Li had just walked through Wan Feng Halls doorway and couldnt help smiling upon hearing Ji Shurans words.
Tonger was so angry her head emitted black smoke. Seeing Jiang Li was still able to smile, she was somewhat puzzled. Ji Shuran spoke of her like so, Jiang Li not only didnt get angry, she still smiled. Whats so funny about this?
Jiang Li stepped into Wan Feng Hall and said: Old madam.
Old madam Jiangs eyes darkened. Nowadays, Jiang Li called her old madam and not grandmother. She seemed to deliberately distancing the relationship with her, or to say, perhaps the relationship with the Jiang family. Naturally old madam Jiang could see that she couldnt regard the current Jiang Li and the previous Jiang second miss as the same person. Jiang Li had changed so much and old madam Jiang didnt know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.
Lu-shi opened her eyes, delighting in others misfortune. Thinking that Jiang Li heard the words Ji Shuran said just now, its inevitable for her to return with a few sentences and made Ji Shuran unhappy. Shes always glad when that happened.
But Jiang Li didnt seem to hear the slander Ji Shuran spouted just now and after greeting old madam Jiang, she performed courtesy to each one of them without having the slightest blame towards Ji Shuran in her words.
Jiang Yue looked at the new pleated skirt with scattered flowers that Jiang Li had changed into, the rewards sent by old madam Jiang after the examination. Her eyes turned red from jealousy.
Jiang You Yao was staring at Jiang Li. Recalling what she had heard from the servant girls mouth that Zhou Yan Bang wanted to rescind the wedding arrangement with her and change it to Jiang Li, she couldnt stop the bitter resentment in her eyes.
Jiang Li stood calmly, turning a blind eye to their gazes.
She didnt care at all.
