Marriage of the Di Daughter Chapter 3.2: Daughter

Afterwards, although Ye Zhen Zhen had passed away, Marquis Ningyuans heir and Jiang Lis engagement was still valid. Even if it hadnt been announced in Yanjing, there were witnesses to the marriage contract.

However, a few days ago, a Buddhist nun came to the small nunnery to deliver rice and provisions. She mentioned that Marquis Ningyuans heir was betrothed to Jiang familys third young miss, Jiang You Yao.

Jiang Li was immediately stunned.

Marquis Ningyuans heir was obviously betrothed to Jiang Li, how did it become Jiang You Yao? Jiang Li had an intense and fiery character. She wanted to go back to Yanjing and demand clarification.

Nowadays, the people in Yanjing only knew the Jiang familys third young miss. Nobody knew who Jiang familys second young miss was. Even if they knew, it was only as the sinister daughter who had harmed her own younger brother. This kind of person, how would she be suited to Marquis Ningyuans heir? It could be assumed that Marquis Ningyuan residence also did not desire to take the engagement with Jiang Li seriously. Otherwise, they wouldnt consent to Jiang familys second young miss being replaced by Jiang third young miss.

The old woman ridiculed Jiang second young miss who was noisily screaming to return home. She also joked that, even if in the end Marquis Ningyuan residence had no choice but to marry Jiang Li, they also would not treat her well. Instead, it was more possible that they would be disgusted with her.

Upon hearing that, the Jiang familys second young miss threw herself into the lake straight away.

Seemingly rescued but right afterward contracting a serious illness, she ended getting thinner with every passing day. Originally, she was already very thin, but now it seemed that she would collapse with a single blow from the wind. However, despite falling sick and looking like this, nobody from Yanjing came to see her.

Perhaps, they were just waiting for her to die, and only then would someone come to collect her corpse.

It was possible that this was exactly what they wanted to do: for Jiang Li to slowly die at the small Buddhist temple. Let her die of an illness in a natural way. Everything was only following the intention of the one in charge.

This was similar to the time when Princess Ningyuan and Shen Yurong wanted Xue Fang Fei to die slowly.

Tonger angrily looked at the mountain pile of chopped firewood located on one side. Contrary to the quantity, it wasnt warm, but cold and damp. Both master and servants basic needs were entirely self-sufficient. Putting it grandly, to see the wisdom of cultivating the heart and nurture the character.

If I had known earlier that it would be like this, at that time, it would have been better to go to Ye family in Xiangyang, said Tonger, how would our young miss have spent her days ah.

Xiangyang

Xue Fang Fei felt slightly moved.

Jiang Lis maternal family, the Ye family, was located in Xiangyang. She could go to Tongxiang from Xiangyang.

She wanted to go back and give offerings to her deceased father. She wanted to go back and kneel to her father for being unfilial. To marry a person with the heart of a wolf and the lung of a dog1, wasnt that inviting disaster? Harming the father to die from anger and the younger brother to lose his life.

If she wanted to return to Xiangyang, it was vital for her to first go back to Yanjing. At present, she was not allowed to go out of the Buddhist nunnery at all.

Raising the hands three times2, there were the deities; on this rainy day, raising the head there was only alarming darkness, no deities could be seen.

Unobstructed, she would walk step by step, walking energetically so she could arrive sooner to that place.

At that time when she was facing death, Princess Yong Ning gave her a piece of advice, for her to reincarnate as the daughter of a distinguished family in her next life. Now, she was already the daughter of a distinguished family. Although she was in dire straits, it was impossible for her to be trampled anymore. This time around with her coming back, could they still be as well prepared as before?

Xue Fang Fei had already died, from now onwards, she was no longer Xue Fang Fei.

I am Jiang Li, she said to herself.

Jiang familys second young miss, Jiang Li.

Hehe its good that now chapters are more manageable, first chapters length was just humungous >.<

To have such a fate Ye Zhen Zhen is actually a name for a main lead (well not sure if using the same kanjis tho), yet here she had such an unlucky life, tch well at least it was the MCs mothers name, not that dishonorable. Ye Zhen Zhen is the name of the MC in Empress With No Virtue, one of my favorites c-novels (already completed, go read it!), and also the MC of Amnesiac Queen (a mystery Chestnut novel ^^). Its kinda funny when you have MCs or characters that have the same name in different novels, but then if one of the bad guys in a novel has the same name as MC/ML in another one it gives me mixed feelings >.<
