Jiang Yi laughed and said, “You can tell Dad that whether you marry or not is up to you. Our Jiang family can support you without any trouble.”
“What if dad disagrees?”
“Then Third Brother will provide for you.”
“Thank you, brother!” Jiang Ning smiled.
Jiang Yi touched her head and laughed, saying, “You look so much like Mom when she was young. Seeing you makes me happy. Ever since you came back, Mom’s spirits have improved a lot too. It’s great.”
“Third Brother, aren’t you going to study at the Academy anymore?”
“I’ve been delaying going back. The Academy has been urging me several times already.”
“You should focus on your studies. It’s important for your future prospects.”
“Do you really care for me that much?”
“If you don’t pass the examination and have a good future, who will support me?”
“Hahaha.” Jiang Yi laughed heartily, feeling very happy. He patted his sister’s head and affectionately said, “Don’t worry, as long as there’s food for me, there’ll be drink for you.”
“Look at you! I’m not kidding anymore. Right now, Aunt is talking with someone who came to propose marriage. If you’re not willing, you’d better hurry and tell Dad and Mom in person.”
“Third Brother, give me a push.”
“Naturally.”
Jiang Yi pushed her wheelchair to the front yard and ran into Jiang Yuan on the way.
Jiang Yuan sweetly called out “Third Brother” first and then looked at Jiang Ning, scoffed, “You really know how to get yourself into trouble. Even the Thirteenth Young Master of the Wenren family wants to marry you. Are you trying to piss someone off?”
“You seem to be quite alive to me.”
“You—”
“Third Brother, let’s go. If we’re late, it’ll be too late. Aunt’s temper will probably make her agree early on.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll fly you there.”
Jiang Yi pushed her wheelchair at a jog, rushed to the front yard, and found Jiang Ruobai.
Jiang Ruobai was in the study. Seeing his sibling duo rushing over, he frowned, “Be careful. Seventh Sister is pregnant. Watch out.”
Jiang Ning laughed, “It’s okay, I’m fine. Dad, hurry up and reject the Wenren family’s marriage proposal.”
“Why reject it?”
“I can’t accept my child having a stepfather, I mean, a stepfather!”
“Don’t worry, when the child is born, our Jiang family will raise it as our own grandchild with the Jiang surname. Even if the Wenren family wanted to raise it, they wouldn’t have a chance!”
“Dad, you know that this child is Prince of Yu’s, right?”
“Your father knows. But what can we do if the Prince of Yu doesn’t want us?” Jiang Ruobai sneered, “We gave him seven days, but he didn’t come to pick you up. Do you still have any illusions about him? Your father wants to marry you off just to spite them to death!”
Jiang Ning:”…”
She had no doubt that the “them” Jiang Ruobai was referring to were Emperor Li Changgeng and his son, Prince of Yu Li Hongyuan.
A court official competing against an emperor and his son, wasn’t this simply courting death?
“Dad, calm down, don’t be impulsive.” Jiang Ning tried to persuade him earnestly, “The Emperor’s mind is unpredictable. What if he gets upset and makes things difficult for you? Our little arms can’t compete against their big legs.”
“With your father here, what are you afraid of? Just marry him. Although Wenren Zong is not as noble as the Prince of Yu, he is still a rare talent. Marrying him won’t be a loss for us.”
“I don’t want to.”
Jiang Ning thought to herself that she had finally found a reliable identity for her child and successfully got rid of the Prince of Yu. She could live a carefree life with food and drink. Why would she deliberately jump into a pit?
Even if others didn’t care, after all, this was ancient times. She was a woman who had been married, had a child, and if she were to marry the cultured and refined Wenren Thirteen, people would inevitably say that she was not worthy of him..
