MARRIAGE OF THE DI DAUGHTER

Chapter 90 Part 3



Chapter 90 Part 3: Uncle

From Ye Shijie, he learnt many things, for instance the wager between Meng Hong Jin in Ming Yi Hall, getting first place in all four exams, using a knife during the palace feast to force Ye Shijie’s rationality to deal with the situation at hand. It was really difficult for Ye Ming Xuan to imagine that all these matters were done by that willful, hurtful little girl in his memory.

10 years had passed, it’s also been 10 years Ye Ming Xuan had not seen Jiang Li. When Ye Zhen Zhen passed away, the Ye family was afraid that after Jiang Yuan Bai remarried, the stepmother would treat Jiang Li harshly. Thus they were thinking of bringing Jiang Li back to Tongxiang. Even though the Ye family could not be compared with the Jiang family as a government official family, at least the Ye family would sincerely protect Jiang Li, letting her not be worried of food and clothing in her lifetime, living a life of luxury.

He never imagined that in reality, in front of old madam Ye, the almost five years old Jiang Li showed disgust and disdained the Ye family for being a merchant family, saying hurtful words that all merchants were lowly. The old madam Ye had a major illness and the people of the Ye family resented Jiang Li.

Such a young child, how could she speak such hurtful words? Moreover, at that time, she seemed to be contaminated by the indifference and coldness in the Jiang family’s bones, the hidden unscrupulousness of the people in officialdom. Compared to them as merchants, they analyzed and balanced the pros and cons even more.

Truly made people hard to forget.

Currently, the girl standing in front of Ye Ming Xuan, wearing a light green jacket and a light green skirt, was slender and tall, extremely elegant. A smile hung at the corner of her lips, her expression warm and pure, the sharpness and malice at that time couldn’t be seen at all, making people feel extremely ironic.

She was really different from before.

Ye Ming Xuan faintly saw his younger sister, Ye Zhen Zhen. After careful looks, there were differences between Jiang Li and Ye Zhen Zhen. Ye Zhen Zhen was bright and pure, just like a tiny animal raised in the sun, carefree and adorable. However, Jiang Li resembled a pear blossom growing alone by the edge of a creek. No one could see the wind, rain and frost that she experienced alone. ‘A beautiful, pure white flower’ bloomed from her tenacity.

Ye Ming Xuan’s complaints towards the little girl unconsciously dissipated more than half in Jiang Li’s clear eyes.

He didn’t know if it was due to blood relationship which made it hard for him to scowl coldly at Jiang Li. Or it was because Jiang Li’s gaze was too kind, warm and pure, so he completely separated this Jiang Li from the five years old Jiang Li.

He exposed a sincere, deep smile to Jiang Li.

Old madam Jiang saw the appreciation from Ye Ming Xuan’s eyes and she relaxed a bit. Ye Shijie was now serving as the foreign official in the Ministry of Revenue, able to reach this position at such an age was really not easy. With the former in-laws relationship, it would be pretty good if in the future he could assist the second branch in his official career. Thus when Ye Shijie and Ye Ming Xuan took the initiative to pay a visit, old madam Jiang’s first reaction was to repair the relationship with the Ye family.

Old madam Jiang was aware of the previous matter of Jiang Li speaking harshly to the people of the Ye family. Old madam Jiang wouldn’t believe it if it’s said that the people of the Ye family totally had no estrangement. However, the current Jiang Li was very different now. There were many things happening, old madam Jiang also wished that Jiang Li could talk with them after meeting them.

Now that they’d met, Ye Ming Xuan’s manner towards Jiang Li could be said to be mild. Old madam Jiang saw with her eyes that Ye Ming Xuan’s impression of Jiang Li was not bad, which was very good. At least the Ye family would not say outside that the Jiang family treated Ye Zhen Zhen’s daughter badly. Or perhaps had deliberately taught her to be crooked.

Ye Ming Xuan laughed and said: “You probably don’t remember me. The last time I met you, you were still a small child.” He reached his hand out to gesture to the position around his knee: “—— this tall.” He said: “I’m your mother’s second brother, you can call me uncle Ming Xuan.”

“Uncle Ming Xuan.” Jiang Li yelled softly.

She had a good feeling towards Ye Ming Xuan, but she didn’t know if it was because Ye Ming Xuan called her “Ah Li” just now, which made her recall Xue Huaiyuan.

“You uncle Ming Xuan came to Yanjing to handle a few things and came here especially to visit you.” Old madam Jiang smiled: “Bringing a gift for you, in a moment, let someone move it to your courtyard.”

Jiang Li smiled and knew in her heart. How could Ye Ming Xuan bring her a gift? It’s probably simply bought from the neighborhood in Yanjing. After all, Ye Ming Xuan, the Jiang family, and her had no contacts. Suddenly visiting the Jiang family home must be because Ye Shijie told him about her affairs.

Jiang Li glanced at Ye Shijie. Ye Shijie saw her looking over and turned his head sideways, evading her sight, as if he had a guilty conscience.

Why the guilty conscience? Jiang Li was stunned.

But old madam Jiang’s attitude towards the people of the Ye family seemed to indicate that Ye Shijie becoming the foreign official of the Ministry of Revenue had somewhat softened the Jiang family’s attitude. As long as Ye Shijie continued to go up and the Ye family becoming more prosperous because of Ye Shijie’s relations, sooner or later, the friendly relationship with the Ye family would be repaired. And Jiang Li would be a young lady with the protection of her maternal family, at least for Ji Shuran to want to do something to her would not be like in the past where she was secured that Jiang Li had no backing.
