Marriage of the Di Daughter-Chapter 22.1 - Old friend
Chapter 22 Part 1: Old friend
Although Jiang Jing Rui was 100% similar to Lu shi, yet he was absolutely not as shrewd as Lu shi. Jiang Li had not yet spoken but he had already said things clearly.
“Why does it seem like you had changed into another person compared to the previous one? Speaking so warmly, it was uncomfortable to death!”
“Still wearing green, do you consider yourself as a green onion?”
“You look too thin! Your look is also very different and where does this dressing style come from?!”
“Tsk tsk tsk those who don’t know that you are an honorable daughter would think you are a Buddhist nun. Do you want to become an immortal?”
At last, he said a sentence “As expected, the nunnery was not a good place, it’s where good people were told to change and they would really change” as conclusion while measuring Jiang Li up and down.
Jiang Li: “…….”
She didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Thinking of Jiang Jing Rui’s actions just now, she opened her mouth to try him out: “Jiang……. Jing Rui?”
When this word came out, Jiang Jing Rui’s expression immediately eased, and he said: “Now this is correct! Call what cousin, my whole body had goosebumps!”
Jiang Li thought to herself, it seemed that Jiang second miss’s feelings with this older cousin were not too bad. They still called each other by their names in private. Looking at Jiang Jing Rui’s noisy appearance without any scheming, then he previously should have been Jiang second miss’s companion.
Jiang Jing Rui placed both his hands on his chest and said: “I still thought I would no longer meet you in this lifetime. Unexpectedly, eldest uncle still has a bit of heart and brought you back home.”
“Many thanks for your concern.” As much as possible, Jiang Li tried to make her manner appear somewhat natural.
However, this “natural”, still made Jiang Jing Rui feel extremely awkward. He spoke with restraint: “But you shouldn’t lower your guard. If you have time, go and curry favor with eldest uncle. My friends all know the matter of your return to the capital……. I see that by now, the entire Yanjing already knows. I heard them from the back, they all said you are malicious. You should be a bit smarter if you don’t want to be driven out later.”
Jiang Li was silent. Jiang Jing Rui gave the impression that his relationship with Jiang second miss was not bad, yet at this time, he gave out the appearance of watching without doing anything. There was also a little impression of taking delight in disaster. And from where he stood, thinking that he was clever, for a moment, it couldn’t be seen if it was with good intention or not, making Jiang Li felt he was both funny and embarrassing.
Jiang Jing Rui cast his sight sideways at a distant place. Inside the pavilion, Jiang You Yao and the other two people’s shadows were still there. Jiang Jing Rui asked: “Hey, when you came out just now, did they make things difficult for you?”
“No.” Jiang Li spoke: “Only spoke a few words.”
When Jiang Jing Rui heard, he looked at her curiously: “What did they say?”
“In a few days, it will be third sister’s fifteenth birthday, third sister reminded me not to forget to give her a present.”
Hearing it, Jiang Jing Rui sneered: “A fifteenth birthday gift, really thought herself as a princess.” Then he looked at Jiang Li and resentfully and impatiently pointed a finger at her: “What about you? You cannot figure out what she meant with her words?”
“What meaning?” Jiang Li was puzzled.
“Ay.” Jiang Jing Rui sighed like a wise old man and spoke: “Once Jiang You Yao’s fifteenth birthday rite has passed, the Marquis Ningyuan’s family would come over to decide on their marriage. To Jiang You Yao’s hairpin ceremony, Zhou Yan Bang will definitely come!”
Zhou Yan Bang. Jiang Li suddenly realized it in a flash. Tong’er had already mentioned it before, the heir of Marquis Ningyuan was called Zhou Yan Bang, which was Jiang second miss’s original fiancée. Later on, Jiang You Yao snatched the position.
After the last snows of winter melted, a fearsome foe that remained hidden lurking in the dark has again made its appearance. The nice weather of spring aided in their comeback, BEWARE! as they shall soon jump upon us… Bugs are on their way to become masters of our most horrible nightmares!
