Chapter 302 A failed marriage proposal turns into a proposal from someone else.



Who is it?

The gatekeeper, fearing they were from the Marquis's residence, loudly inquired from inside the gate.

"Is Miss Ye here?"

"I am Prime Minister Jiang."

Ye Lanyin and Hua Xin exchanged a glance. What is Prime Minister Jiang doing here?

When the servant heard that it wasn't someone from the Marquis's residence, he hurriedly opened the door.

What kind of person is Prime Minister Jiang?

That was a powerful minister of the imperial court, a first-rank official.

"Prime Minister Jiang, what brings you here?"

Prime Minister Jiang, carrying many congratulatory gifts, stood at the door with a smile. "Excuse me, is Miss Ye here?"

"Prime Minister Jiang, please wait a moment."

After the servant finished speaking, he hurriedly walked inside.

"Madam, Prime Minister Jiang requests an audience."

Ye Lanyin has now established her own household, and according to the rules, she cannot meet with men outside the household alone. However, since there is no one else here, she has no choice but to ask the steward, Tian Zhong, to come forward.

"Brother Tian, ​​thank you for your trouble."

"No trouble at all." Tian Zhong smiled and followed Ye Lanyin to the front hall.

Prime Minister Jiang followed closely behind.

His steps were unsteady, his face slightly flushed, and he was carrying quite a few gifts.

"Mrs. Ye."

Tian Zhong smiled and said, "Prime Minister Jiang, please have a seat."

“Ping’an Prefecture is currently without a male head of household, and the children have all gone to school. Madam had no choice but to invite Steward Tian here. Please forgive her, Prime Minister Jiang.”

"It's alright. It was my abruptness in coming uninvited. I was just afraid that if I had been a step too slow, I would have missed the opportunity."

Prime Minister Jiang said, blushing.

The servants served tea, and Tian Zhong glanced at Ye Lanyin.

"I wonder what opportunity Prime Minister Jiang is referring to?"

Prime Minister Jiang coughed, his fist pressed against his lips.

"To be honest, I have been a lonely man for a long time and originally planned to live out my days alone."

"But during that brief glimpse of the palace that day, I developed feelings of love for Madam Ye. I also share a similar plight with Madam Ye, and I have a very good relationship with the old general of the Ye family."

"I wonder if I, Jiang, will have the honor of marrying Madam Ye?"

Ye Lanyin was stunned for a moment.

Prime Minister Jiang has come to propose marriage? And he's even coming in person?

Just then, Lin Wanwan was carried in from outside by Hua Mei.

A pair of round eyes stared unblinkingly at Prime Minister Jiang.

Hehe~

Prime Minister Jiang beamed with joy as he reached out his hands to his savior.

"Miss Wanwan, how about Uncle Jiang gives you a hug?"

[He's already calling me uncle, how can he be my father?]

If my father finds out you stole his wife, will he cause you to lose your wife and children again?

really.

As soon as he finished speaking, the servant's voice came from outside the door.

"The Regent has arrived."

Upon hearing that it was the Regent, Prime Minister Jiang was so frightened that he stood up.

Turning around, he saw the Regent walking in from outside, dressed in a black python robe.

He had heard about Ye Lanyin's divorce a few days ago.

The regent declared his love for Ye Lanyin and his intention to marry her.

He waited at the mansion for two days, but did not hear Ye Lanyin say that she wanted to marry him, so he mustered up his courage to come.

Lin Wanwan turned around excitedly, and sure enough, her handsome father had arrived.

【Oh?】

[Is Brother Shenghuo not going to school?]

"Lanyin." The Regent called out to Ye Lanyin familiarly, then sat down in the main seat on his own.

When Prime Minister Jiang saw his appearance, he looked at himself.

Why do I feel like I'm a guest in someone else's house?

They were preparing to bow to the Regent.

Yao Qianshu stood beside the Regent and said with a grin:

"Oh, Grand Chancellor, it's been a long time!"

"Wh...what?" Prime Minister Jiang was dumbfounded by his shout. Did he look that old?

He glanced at Ye Lanyin, then said timidly:

"You, you, you... what did you call me, you brat?"

Yao Qianshu blinked:

"Grandpa."

"Grandpa Jiang, Qian Shu feels it's more intimate to call you that, do you mind?"

"Oh, that's true. How could you mind? The old lady is the kindest person."

"By the way, Grandpa Jiang, since your family was destroyed, have you ever remarried? If you want to remarry, it just so happens that my grandfather's brother's wife's cousin's cousin has lost her husband. I can introduce her to you."

"She is fifty years old this year and has five sons. If you marry her, you won't have to worry about taking care of your parents in your old age."

"From the first to the fifteenth of the lunar month, we'll go to the next house after visiting this one, so that you won't feel lonely, Grandpa."

"Not only do you not have to raise your children, but you also have someone to take care of you in your old age. Don't you think that's great?"

Prime Minister Jiang didn't drink a single sip of water; he spat it all out.

"puff……"

"Cough cough cough..."

"Cough cough cough..."

Yao Qianshu's eyes darted around. "Oh, Grandpa Jiang, what's wrong?"

"Aren't you getting too excited?"

"Don't get excited."

After saying that, he ran over to Hua Mei, picked up Lin Wanwan, and whispered in her ear, "Little sister, when you pee later, I'll buy you a chicken leg."

Lin Wanwan's eyes lit up.

【drumstick? 】

Okay, okay.

Yao Qianshu hurriedly carried Lin Wanwan into Prime Minister Jiang's arms.

"Grandpa Jiang, Wanwan and I will definitely attend your wedding. Please give us a big red envelope!"

We wish you a healthy baby soon and many children and grandchildren.

Lin Wanwan took Jiang Chengxiang's arm and hesitated for a moment...

Just as Prime Minister Jiang was about to speak, he noticed that his trouser leg was wet.

He reached out and touched his trouser leg, then brought it to his nose and smelled it.

"Ouch!"

"I peed, I peed."

He was so frightened that he immediately stood up.
