Marriage of the Di Daughter

Chapter 65 Part 1:

Seeing that Jiang Li had come, Jiang Yuan Bai opened his mouth. Apparently not knowing what he should say, soon afterwards he coughed lightly and awkwardly.

Jiang Li stepped forward and said: “Second uncle, third uncle.”

Jiang Yuan Ping was beaming and sized her up while saying:”Little Li has done well. Able to gain the top position in Ming Yi hall’s examination is not an easy thing. I was just talking to your father to reward you well this time.”

Jiang Li smiled and bowed: “Many thanks second uncle.”

Jiang Yuan Ping looked at her with affection. It seemed that this second uncle was someone with a good temperament. Compared with Jiang Yuan Bai, he could still pretend. Looking at Jiang Yuan Xing’s cowardly form, Jiang Yuan Ping had the best outlook. However, Jiang Li wouldn’t really think that Jiang Yuan Ping was just a simple affectionate elder. This was a man with a big smile and evil intentions. Though he liked to smile, he was a tiger. Provoked his anger and he would soon show his tiger tail.

Jiang Yuan Xing stood at the very end. Looking at Jiang Li, he laughed somewhat cautiously. He said: “Congratulations Little Li.”

As the Jiang family’s concubine born son, despite being the third branch, he wasn’t regarded as anything important. Especially when Jiang Yuan Bai and Jiang Yuan Ping’s official careers shone brightly. Jiang Yuan Xing was even more forgotten in the corner.

It was rather incompatible with the Jiang’s family’s prosperity.

Seeing Jiang Yuan Xing praised Jiang Li with her own eyes, Yang-shi felt upset. In previous years’ examinations, Jiang Yu’e achieved the best results in the three courseworks among the Jiang family’s misses. Jiang You Yao was good at playing the guqin because Ji Shuran had invited a famous master to instruct her from a young age. Jiang Yu’e wasn’t able to have such a good teacher. Calligraphy, mathematics, etiquette were truly based on their own ability.

The only opportunity to shine in the Jiang residence was grabbed by someone else. How could Yang-shi’s heart not be irritated?

But her irritation was after all could not be compared with the irritation at the bottom of Ji Shuran’s heart.

Jiang You Yao watched how the three masters in the Jiang residence, including her own father, looked and praised Jiang Li. Feeling both wronged and angry, she couldn’t help blurting out: “Second sister, this time you came first, there would undoubtedly be many people who think that it’s hard to believe.”

The people in the room turned quiet. Jiang Li turned her head to look at Jiang You Yao and quietly said: “Oh?”

Sensing that everyone was looking at her, Jiang You Yao hesitated for a bit before looking worriedly at Jiang Li: “Second sister, you returned to Yanjing not long before you entered Ming Yi Hall to study. It has not even been 10 days since you attended Ming Yi Hall. Without practice and study but able to be the first....... It was really somewhat shocking.” After speaking, without waiting for Jiang Li to reply, she actively persuaded: “I know second sister and the Meng family’s miss’s wager is extremely important, certainly second sister is unwilling to lose. But we are the Jiang family, father is also watching. Don’t damage the foundation due to trivial matters. Although reputation is important, quality and strength of a character also cannot be abandoned.”

In her heart, Jiang Li wanted to applaud Jiang You Yao.

Look at this speech, sounded so dignified, so righteous and awe-inspiring. But at the same time, they contained such malicious intentions. Directly suspecting that Jiang Li was cheating to gain the top position.

Jiang Jing Rui sneered: “Why should we bother with what is in other people’s minds? If they can’t accept it then don’t accept it. Could it be possible to drag Ming Yi Hall’s examiner out for a beating and let other people change the rankings? There’s a sentence in the casino, ‘If you agree to bet you must accept to lose’. Why? So only Meng Hong Jin can win while if Jiang Lin wins mean she cheated?”

These words were not face-saving enough for Jiang You Yao and her face flushed with embarrassment. Jiang Jing Rui is a thoughtless person, you cannot reason with him. Jiang You Yao hated Jiang Jing Rui in her heart.

Ji Shuran hurriedly said: “You Yao was also worried.” While glancing at Jiang Yuan Bai.
