Marriage of the Di Daughter

Chapter 53 Part 1: Complain

Huff, the days are so hot in this part of the world, I’m practically drenched while sitting aka melting. Added onto that, it’s the closing report of the fiscal year. Really it’s been heating up around here from the weather and work. Anyhow, it’s already May! the goal is to have a 3x release... we can do it!!!!! .... one of these months XD. Enjoy!

Jiang You Yao didn’t foresee that Jiang Li’s last word would draw herself. Naturally she could hear the implied meaning and nearly hopped in anger. However, she could only restraint herself with all her might.

However, Jiang Yu’e didn’t keep her calm like Jiann You Yao. Originally, she was already dissatisfied with Jiang Li. She didn’t perceive the approval in Old Madam Jiang’s words and said: “As young ladies, our words and deeds have to be cautious on weekdays. Second sister is chivalrous, but as a female, getting involved in a man’s affair in the middle of the street, it’s still not pretty and harmful to morality and conduct.”

Ji Shuran’s heart said “bad”, and sure enough, after Jiang Yu’e said this, Old Madam Jiang’s face immediately changed color. She spoke while staring at Jiang Yu’e: “Oh? Don’t tell me if you encounter death, you won’t save? Being cold and detached means you don’t lack morality and conduct? I think your family precepts were written somewhere else!”

Jiang Yu’e blanked, not anticipating Old Madam Jiang to suddenly cause her difficulty. She felt both shame and wronged in her heart but she didn’t dare to dispute Old Madam Jiang. She merely lowered her head and didn’t dare to utter a word, hating Jiang Li all over again.

Ji Shuran was also annoyed. Old Madam Jiang spoke of not saving when encountering death, even though she was speaking to Jiang Yu’e as being cold and detached as a human, but Jiang You Yao was scolded together with her. She felt displeased in her heart but on the surface she still said consolingly: “Mother, don’t be angry, the children are still young. It’s normal not to know what to do the first time they meet this kind of matter. After all, Yu’e and You Yao had never encountered this kind of thing. It’s still Li-er who’s brave and resourceful.” She smiled as she looked towards Jiang Li: “She dares to step forward bravely.”

Jiang Li smiled: “It was nothing more than just following the heart.”

A good ‘nothing more than following the heart’, it stepped on the others without leaving any trace, making her appear much nobler. Ji Shuran’s smile had a bit of unnaturalness.

Old Madam Jiang added: “It’s a relative. I don’t know when the Ye family’s child arrived in Yanjing. Since you know where he lives, you may as well invite him to come to the residence to sit some other day.”

Ji Shuran was somewhat surprised and was even more resentful. No matter what, Ye Zhen Zhen had passed away for many years. The Jiang family and Ye family no longer paid any visit to each other since an earlier time. Now, this coincidence with Jiang Li made Old Madam Jiang suddenly want to reconcile with the Ye family. What was the meaning of this? If the Jiang family and the Ye family established friendly relations with each other, where did they want her to put her Ji family’s face?

“It was urgent at that time and after the matter was resolved, we left soon after and didn’t exchange many words with the eldest cousin from the Ye family. Thus I am also not clear.” Jiang Li said.

Hearing her, Old Madam Jiang had some regrets. However, Ji Shuran let out her breath. But soon her brows knitted, how difficult was it if the Jiang family really wanted to find a person within Yanjing’s city walls? If Old Madam Jiang was set with her idea of meeting Ye Shijie, even if Jiang Li didn’t know Ye Shijie’s circumstances, finding Ye Shijie was just a matter of time.

Right at this moment, Jiang Bingji who was playing on the soft couch spoke while dragging his voice: “Mother, I’m hungry.”

Old Madam Jiang snapped out of her thoughts and looked at Jiang Bingji. Then she said to Ji Shuran: “Take Ji’er to have dinner.” She then saidto Jiang Li and the others: “Since you’ve come back from school up to now you still haven’t eaten. Everybody go back, just treat this matter as already resolved. There’s no need to mention this anymore in the future.” Done speaking, she closed her eyes to indicate that she was tired and needing rest.

Fei Cui and Zhen Zhu busily saw the visitors out.
