She was the top alchemist from a prominent ancient martial arts family in the 21st century. With one transmigration, she found herself in the body of the discarded eldest daughter of a general'...
Ji Jiuying remained relaxed, as if what they were talking about had nothing to do with her.
"Jiu'er, your disappearance and the annulment of your engagement are now widely known, so it might be difficult for you to find a new husband. Fortunately, your mother, sister-in-law, and nephew are all of marriageable age, and your mother has already sounded out their opinions. Yang Wei is willing to marry you..."
"Pfft~" Ji Jiuying was drinking tea when she heard this name and almost choked.
Yang Wei? Impotence? His parents really know how to name someone!
Ji Chenyuan frowned slightly, a hint of anger flashing in his eyes as she interrupted him. However, he quickly changed his expression, as if he were genuinely concerned for her, and said again.
"You don't need to worry about their family background. They run a silk business outside the city, so you won't feel too wronged if you marry into their family."
After she finished speaking, everyone's eyes were on Ji Jiuying. Ji Jiuying did not rush to answer, but finished drinking the tea in her hand.
Then, she looked up and stared into Ji Chenyuan's eyes, coldly saying, "What if I don't agree?"
Ji Chenyuan's face darkened. "Hmph, whether you agree or not, I have already agreed to this marriage."
Ji Jiuying sneered, her beautiful face expressionless. "If you really like this marriage so much, Father, you might consider marrying yourself off to him."
Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned for a moment, then their eyes widened in astonishment.
This young lady must be crazy, actually asking the general to marry someone else!
"You! You unfilial daughter, what did you say!" Ji Chenyuan stared at Ji Jiuying with eyes that seemed to be spitting fire. He never expected her to be so venomous and rebellious. He had initially felt a little sorry that she was marrying Yang Wei, but now she was determined to marry him.
Meanwhile, Ji Fengyan, standing to the side, looked on with a gloating expression.
This idiot dares to talk back to her father. Doesn't she know that she's nothing without the Ji family?
“I said I didn’t want to. If Father’s hearing is not good, I can give you two acupuncture needles.”
Ji Jiuying gave a light, mocking laugh.
"Ji Jiuying, nobody knows what happened while you were missing these past few days... You're lucky someone even wants you now, so don't..."
A crisp 'snap' sound.
Ji Fengyan was caught off guard and was slapped to the ground, falling face-first into the dirt.
Everyone was shocked!
"presumptuous!"
"Ji Jiuying!"
"Damn, you're so shameless!" Ji Jiuying rubbed her slightly reddened hands.
"Ah~ you bitch! How dare you hit me!" Ji Fengyan covered her right cheek, her killing intent surging, and took out her whip to attack Ji Jiuying.
However, Ji Jiuying quickly grabbed Zhou Haiping in front of her, and Ji Fengyan was shocked, but by then she could no longer retract her spiritual skill.
Just as the attack was about to hit Zhou Haiping, Ji Rufeng summoned the Xuanbing Sword to block it.
Zhou Haiping was terrified, but fortunately, Rufeng blocked the way in the end, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Ji Chenyuan was trembling with rage, furious and wanting to tear Ji Jiuying apart. How dare he hit his wife and daughter in front of him? She was embarrassing him in public.
"Ji Jiuying, kneel down!" Ji Chenyuan said imposingly in a deep voice.
Ji Jiuying turned to look at Ji Chenyuan, a deep sneer on her lips, "You're not worthy!"
"you!"
Ji Jiuying then looked at Ji Fengyan, "Ji Fengyan, are you in such a hurry to convict me because you have the ability to predict the future, or has your skill in smearing people improved again?"
After speaking, Ji Jiuying revealed a section of her clean, fair arm, showing the cinnabar mark that symbolizes a woman's chastity.
Everyone suddenly realized.
"So what if you're still a virgin? Who would dare marry you after the Third Prince broke off the engagement?" Ji Fengyan said through gritted teeth, her hands clenched tightly in her sleeves.
"Then there's no need for you, someone who only picks up trash that others don't want, to bother!" Ji Jiuying said coldly.
"Ji Jiuying, watch your mouth! You've offended the royal family time and time again. You could have several heads and still not be enough to chop them off! If you want to die, don't drag us down with you!" Ji Rufeng said viciously.
"Hmph~ You guys are so clean-mouthed when you keep calling someone a slut?" Ji Jiuying laughed instead of getting angry.
"You shameless woman, you're a disgrace to the Ji family. We've fed and clothed you all these years, and instead of being grateful, you repay kindness with enmity," Zhou Haiping said angrily, her eyes filled with malice as she looked at Ji Jiuying, her heart burning with rage.
She never wanted to see that bitch again.
Upon hearing this, Ji Jiuying looked at Zhou Haiping with a meaningful gaze.
Who do you think you are?
"Ji Jiuying, do you even see me as your father anymore?" Ji Chenyuan's expression was icy, as if he wanted to slap the girl in front of him to death.
"Father? Ji Chenyuan, you really don't deserve to be my father." Ji Jiuying sneered.
Upon hearing this, the group of people were slightly taken aback, and Ji Chenyuan was completely frozen in his seat.
What did that good-for-nothing mean by that? Did she find out?
Now Ji Chenyuan has come to terms with the facts. He can't do anything about Ji Jiuying, and forcing her into marriage is no longer a realistic option.
Whether she knew it or not, she had to leave the Ji family.
“Ji Jiuying, you have repeatedly harmed your own clan, which is intolerable to Heaven and Earth. You have also repeatedly spoken arrogantly, offending the royal family, and refused to listen to our teachings. Since you are unwilling to marry, then according to the family rules, you shall be expelled from the Ji family,” Ji Chenyuan said solemnly.
These words stunned everyone, especially Zhou Haiping. Wasn't it agreed that she would marry Yang Wei? Why did she suddenly change her mind?
Not to mention Ji Fengyan.
Ji Jiuying looked at these people with a calm expression, a smile of inscrutable emotion on her face.
Do you have any objections?
"General Ji, I have an objection."
Ji Chenyuan asked, "Do you have any further objections?"
"I'm taking Qingling and Granny Zhang with me. Also, I'd like General Ji to write a document and remove my name from the Ji family genealogy. I'm afraid you'll change your minds later, and I'll have nowhere to complain," Ji Jiuying said with a faint smile.
Everyone was stunned again. Was Ji Jiuying dreaming? Would they regret it?
"Okay." Ji Chenyuan agreed without hesitation. How could he possibly regret it? She wasn't his biological daughter.
Ji Chenyuan instructed his guards to bring out the writing brush, ink, paper, and inkstone. With a few strokes of the brush, two written agreements were drawn up, and both Ji Chenyuan and Ji Jiuying signed and sealed them.
Ji Jiuying grabbed one of the documents with her jade-like hand, and it landed in her hand.
"Hmm~ Not bad, not bad!" Ji Jiuying nodded in satisfaction.
To others, Ji Jiuying's actions appeared to be a forced smile!
In fact, one day in the future, he regretted it so much that he was filled with remorse.
"You!" Ji Chenyuan was about to say something when Ji Jiuying interrupted him.
"Since there's nothing else, I'll head back to Pear Garden to pack my things." Ji Jiuying ignored the expressions on the faces of the people behind her and turned to leave without looking back.
Upon arriving at Lihe Courtyard, Ji Jiuying only instructed Qingling and Granny Zhang to take their personal belongings and leave the Ji family with her.
Once she leaves the Ji family, she will only be Ji Jiuying, Ji Jiuying from the 21st century, and will have absolutely no connection with the Ji family. No! To be precise, she never had any connection with the Ji family to begin with.
