Chu Muchi snorted coldly, "Don't you know whether I'm cold or not?"
The weather was getting cold, and every household was putting on more thick clothes. I wore a thin black robe to meet that girl that day, and I thought that the girl was considerate. Since I had helped her like this, if Jiang Mingzhi was thoughtful, she would naturally know to make two clothes for him as a reward, right?
Who would have thought that half a month had passed and the girl hadn't shown up.
Jiang Mingzhi, who was being blamed, didn't know about these things. She had other important things to do now - getting married.
She needed to go to the border, but it was not easy for a girl to go out, let alone go to the border. Jiang Mingzhi thought about it and felt that the most urgent thing was to find someone to marry, preferably an orphan from a simple family.
She made an agreement with that man that they would be a couple in name only, so that after getting married, she could do whatever she wanted without anyone noticing.
As they were talking, the carriage stopped and the driver shouted, "Miss, a poor scholar from nowhere has fainted on the official road!"
Jiang Mingzhi was stunned. Just when she was thinking about it, a candidate appeared at her doorstep? Could God be able to read minds?
I don’t know if it was just a coincidence, but after Jiang Mingzhi placed the person in his own villa outside, he sent someone to inquire.
The other party is indeed a scholar with a clean family background and only has an old mother at home, so this is not a big deal.
The moment he woke up and saw Jiang Mingzhi, his eyes widened. Then his face turned red as a cooked shrimp and he quickly avoided her gaze. "It was the girl who saved me?"
Jiang Mingzhi hadn't expected the other person to be so shameless, and couldn't help but laugh, "Yeah, how are you going to repay me for saving your life?"
The scholar's surname was Qin, and his given name was Ziqing. His face turned even redder when he heard this.
"If you can use me, young lady, I will do my best to help you."
"In that case, I need a husband. Are you willing to tiptoe and marry me?"
I opened my eyes wide, unable to believe it. Such a beautiful girl actually wanted to marry me?
He was at a loss as to what to do, when Jiang Mingzhi added: "You know, you refused to eat or drink at that time, and I took care of you day and night, doing everything myself, living in the same room with you. If this gets out, my reputation will be ruined. You don't want to just walk away and ignore me, do you?"
Qin Ziqing heard this and waved his hands repeatedly, "No, no, no, I'm afraid I'm not worthy of you, but if you say so..."
Jiang Mingzhi went to find his aunt Zhang.
Zhang was shocked when she heard this. "Girl, your aunt has never heard you talk about your crush before. Why is it so sudden?"
Jiang Mingzhi was embarrassed. If time wasn't tight, she was worried that if she was any later, the road to the border would be blocked by heavy snow, and she wouldn't know when she would see her father again.
Seeing that she seemed determined, Zhang couldn't help but sigh.
These days, the series of incidents at the Jinyi Marquis' Mansion have become a topic of conversation in Kyoto City, and she has been worried about Jiang Mingzhi's marriage.
Now that Jiang Mingzhi said that she already had someone she liked, Zhang felt a little complicated, but also felt a sense of relief that things were settled.
Fortunately, it was not a casual marriage. With Jiang Mingzhi's status, she did not need to humble herself and seek for an arranged marriage, let alone worry that the man she married had no ability to make a living. With Jiang Mingzhi's dowry, even if she spent all her money, it would be enough to last for decades, not to mention that the old lady had already prepared an estate for her.
After greeting his aunt, Jiang Mingzhi began to prepare for this matter.
She wanted to get married as soon as possible, and then escape from Kyoto to find her parents.
By the time the news spread throughout the Jinyihou Mansion, it was already October.
Jiang Mingzhi asked Old Madam Jiang to decide the wedding date, and the wedding was set on October 6th. Although it was a bit hasty, fortunately, she was old enough, and the family had started preparing the dowry for girls of marriageable age a few years ago, and they also had wedding dresses.
As long as you are not marrying a high-ranking marquis or prince, the regulations on wedding dresses are sufficient.
Jiang Mingzhi didn't care much about these things. In fact, she had thought about it. If it really didn't work out, she would just abandon everything in Kyoto and go directly to Yuncheng.
But she still had some concerns. After all, the Zhou family massacre case had not yet been cleared up, and she could not simply abandon her current identity.
In this way, it would be easiest for her to escape secretly and leave Kyoto without being noticed. On the one hand, she would not have to give up her current identity as the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, and on the other hand, she could avoid her marriage being exploited by others.
Although Chu Jincheng is not bothering her now, who knows if there will be other people? After all, one must be on guard against others, especially since she has the blood of both the Jiang and Wang families flowing in her body.
It turned out that Jiang Mingzhi's idea was right.
Originally hesitant, but finally persuaded by Zhang, Mrs. Jiang came to see Jiang Mingzhi on the third day.
"I'm afraid your marriage is inappropriate."
Jiang Mingzhi frowned. It seemed that someone wanted to use her status as the legitimate grandmother to interfere with her marriage.
This is not a good thing.
"Grandma, what happened?"
Old Madam Jiang sighed, knowing that she was an old woman and not a blood relative of her grandchildren. She was only able to speak a few words because she was the legitimate grandmother.
After thinking about it, she said that when it comes to our affairs, grandmother and sister don't care about anything, but now she suddenly gets angry at Jiang Mingzhi, so Jiang Mingzhi is naturally unhappy.
She had already planned this matter, and if it got stuck with her grandmother, all her plans would be in vain.
"Grandma, do you have any other ideas about your granddaughter's marriage?"
Grandmother shook her head and sighed again: "Don't be offended by my talkativeness. After all, you are all descendants of the Marquis. Although I am not your and Yushu's biological grandmother, I have absolutely no ill intentions towards you."
After thinking for a moment, the old lady glanced at Jiang Mingzhi and said bluntly, "You and His Royal Highness Prince Yong... Mingzhi, if you can marry into Prince Yong's mansion, both you and the Marquis' Mansion will benefit greatly in the future. Doesn't Prince Yong have a deep affection for you?"
