Chapter 46 Part 2: Good person
Although in Ming Yi Hall, Jiang You Yao wasn’t known for being one of the best in talent and learning, she was known for her beautiful appearance. Those with better talents than her couldn’t top her beauty, while those with better looks than her couldn’t top her talent. In addition, Jiang Yuan Bai’s identity made Jiang You Yao’s existence in Ming Yi Hall in a league of her own.
Jiang Yu’e smiled: “Second sister is really good-looking, precisely because she has stayed in the mountain for a long time, her temperament is…….” She didn’t need to continue, yet everyone recalled the fact that Jiang Li was banished to the nunnery at that time and stayed there for eight years.
Staying deep in the mountain for eight years, it’s very likely that she’s an unsophisticated country bumpkin. Just returning to the capital, what could she possibly understand?
Even the young girls who were showing curiosity towards Jiang Li just now showed contempt.
The girls studying at Ming Yi Hall were regarded by their identities, their statuses, their appearances, and their talents. Each person who could enter this place was dearly loved by their families. Naturally, being in that position, they were not reconciled to be inferior to other people. As long as there’s a newcomer, everyone wanted to make comparisons.
Aside from having a chief assistant as a father, there’s not one good point about Jiang Li. Moreover, this chief assistant father might not necessarily care about her. As such, what’s notable about Jiang Li then?
Right at that moment, suddenly there’s a shout from an unaware and meddlesome student: “Jiang second miss has arrived!”
All the girls studying there collectively turned their head to look at the door.
From the door, appeared two girls walking through. The girl dressed in a servant’s outfit appeared more robust than the common servant girl; even her skin was darker. Combined with the apricot red servant’s skirt, it didn’t make her look charming, instead it made her look somewhat funny. Her movements also resembled those village women in the fields.
Even though this servant girl was eye-catching, perhaps owing to her comical appearance, it contrasted starkly with the dust-free style of the girl by her side.
On that girl’s face, there’s a gentle smile. Smooth, just like the warm breeze blowing in the mountain. Brushing over the people’s hearts, making them feel comfortable. Her facial features looked very well, delicate and pretty with a heroic spirit between her brows. Making her look gentle and soft while carrying a bit of touching tenacity.
“Is that the Jiang family’s second miss?” Someone spoke in a small voice: “She actually doesn’t look as if she was raised in the mountain.”
The first day of school, the first time entering the unfamiliar Ming Yi Hall, facing unfamiliar people. Yet this girl didn’t show the slightest discomfort and timidity. Her natural and unrestrained appearance was no different from the others.
“I think she looks like someone who’s been raised in the mountain,” someone else said quietly, “there’s a bit of a spirit.”
“Spirit”, it’s a feeling that’s hard to describe. It’s not something that could be learned after following a teacher for a few days. It’s also not something that a lot of money could buy. This girl’s eyes were pure and clean like pools of spring water, sweet and simple.
Even if they’d heard so many rumors about her malice, Jiang second miss was born too tender, simple and good, which made it difficult for people to give birth to ill will.
The change of attitude in a split second from the surrounding people towards Jiang Li was immediately captured by Jiang You You and her entourage. Jiang You Yao felt flustered, unexpectedly, Jiang Li didn’t wear those skirts sent by Ji Shuran but made her own choice. Jiang Li clearly did that on purpose, that was, purposefully make herself be in the limelight.
Jiang You Yao’s ways of thinking was really somewhat unreasonable. If Jiang Li wore those clothes sent by Ji Shuran, that would actually be seeking the limelight. It’s just that now is not the time to be famous, it might not be a good thing. Jiang Li’s attire was simple and elegant, but combined with her temperament, they complemented each other well. Thus, the invisible limelight was, on the contrary, pushed higher.
Jiang Yu’e, on the other hand, was puzzled. She didn’t understand why Jiang Li’s reputation was a mess, but when the students looked at her, they didn’t show any loathing*. Could it be that it didn’t matter whether the reputation was good or bad?
Jiang Li smiled slowly in her heart.
There’re always some things that can’t be seen by people’s eyes. Those things that couldn’t be seen could be deceived. However, the majority of people are willing to believe that what they could see was everything.
For instance, whether a person is good or bad, on one side, there’s also cause. How could a person see and understand? If they understand by looking, it was simply the other person’s judgement.
She gave the impression of a good person. With a little effort, she could perhaps be a “good person”.
