Marriage of the Di Daughter Chapter 40 Part 1: Academy

The matter of Jiang Yuan Bai seeking a teacher for Jiang Li was very quickly known to Jiang Li.

The one who told Jiang Li of this matter was not anyone else but the young master from the second branch, Jiang Jing Rui.

Among the Jiang familys two young masters, Jiang Jing You was slightly older with a good temperament. Others said his study was just so-so and everyday he was chased by Lu shi to study for the imperial examination. Jiang Jing Ruis temperament was fierce and nobody dared to chase him to take the imperial examination. As long as he didnt stir up trouble outside, everyone was immensely happy and relieved already.

Jiang Jing Rui was mocked by Jiang Li last time and for some days he didnt step into Fang Fei Garden. If he saw Jiang Li during the day, he would take a detour and walk away. Of course Jiang Li was too lazy to pay attention to him, but today, this Jiang Jing Rui showed up again in Fang Fei Gardens doorway.

Ming Yue and Qing Feng were embroidering at the doorway and were startled upon seeing Jiang Jing Rui. They greeted: Second young master.

Jiang Jing Rui coughed lightly and asked whether Jiang Li was inside. Then he strutted as he walked in.

Inside the room, Jiang Li was right in the middle of reading a book. Tonger was aware that last time Jiang Li and Jiang Jing Rui were stuck in a deadlock. So she just stood by the side without saying a word. Bai Xue was in a corner of the room boiling flower tea. She was a casual and carefree person, and seeing that Tonger didnt welcome him, she also didnt get up and continued to sit on the small stool and took care of the teapot.

Seeing how nobody in the room paid attention to him, Jiang Jing Rui was somewhat ill at ease and also felt somewhat angry from shame. He set himself across from Jiang Li and saw the book in front of Jiang Li. He said: What book are you looking at, do you understand just by looking at it?

This persons speech was always so loathsome, a hedonistic son who deserved to be called spoiled till rotten. Jiang Li lifted her head to glance at him and asked: What brings you here?

Seeing that Jiang Li finally took note of him, he didnt know why but Jiang Jing Rui surprisingly felt very happy. He no longer heeded how both the master and servant girls in this room were disrespectful towards him, and he said straight away: I came here to tell you something. Eldest uncle is going to invite a teacher for you!

Invite a teacher? Jiang Li was somewhat surprised.

I rushed over here as soon as I got this information. I heard that eldest aunt said to eldest uncle that with your aptitude, its impossible for you to study in an academy. So just find an ordinary teacher to teach you some superficial knowledge so as not to lose face in front of people and just to keep up appearances.

Thats too much! The handkerchief in Tongers hand fell on the ground with a plop. What aptitude our young lady has? Our young ladys aptitude is very good!

Jiang Jing Rui glanced at Tonger and shook his head: Why would eldest aunt seriously look for a person to teach your young miss? Its simply wishing for her to be a straw bag. I heard eldest uncle handed all these matters to eldest aunt. The person that eldest aunt is looking for will make Jiang Li eat some sufferings.

Jiang Li didnt speak, Jiang Jing Rui sighed again and again then, seemingly somewhat embarrassed, he said: I want to lend a hand but our second branch has never been involved in the main branchs affairs. If I bring this matter to my mother, my mother will definitely scold me to death. I think its better for you to look for grandmother. Grandmother, this person, is still very impartial. At that time, Ill help you say a few words from the side. If grandmother is the one choosing a teacher, the teacher would not be lacking.

Jiang Li stared at him. Apparently, after the last ridicule, Jiang Jing Rui had opted to stand by her side. Regardless of whether it was due to the friendship between him and the previous Jiang second miss or because Jiang Jing Rui was originally a sympathetic person, the fact proved that this young man was still not too bad.

Seeing the views dwindle, Lime threw an ultimatum at me so I had to sit down and edit this one yes or yes (even when my tired me wanted to continue putting it off) still need to apologize to you bc of the delay and missing out on updates, lifes been a bit rough lately (nothing too bad, just overwhelmed by work and school >.<)

But rejoice, I had to spend a few hours on the train bc of work so I had enough time to translate RP, after reading this you can immediately head to read the latest 2 chaps I owe you! Wanted to post them at noon but forgot to schedule even forgot I had a class cuz was so hectic with work >.<

aaaand since I still had some free time on the train ride, I worked a bit on a DFFs chapter as well, it will still take some time since chaps are longer and more difficult than in RP but hopefully will come soon^^ if you havent read that one yet, what are you waiting for? even if its a tad taxing on the mind to tlate it, just doing it for a bit was already able to make my heart puddle in happiness and start to drool, FC is such a cutie! that novel really heals the heart and brings you a smile ah
