Chapter 66 Wedding Date
The marriage between the two families was thus decided on September 28th, an auspicious day for marriage.
After the people from the Marquis' Mansion left, Jiang Fei went to the old lady again. The old lady was very pleased to know that the Marquis had come and the two families had already set a date for the wedding.
"The Marquis' Mansion and our Jiang Family are now on different levels. The fact that the Marquis and his wife came to visit us personally shows how much they value you."
Jiang Fei nodded, "Ru Fei understands."
The old lady added, "Although the rules of the Marquis's Mansion are not strict, it is still a noble family after all, and it is not as casual as our own family."
"Granddaughter has made note of it."
"Oh, now that you've settled this, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief." The old lady took Jiang Fei's hand and patted it.
"Although your mother was a little impatient, she was ultimately doing this for your own good. Rulin did something wrong and is still kneeling in the ancestral hall. I heard the other day that she realized she was wrong and deeply repented."
Jiang Fei smiled. Would Jiang Rulin repent? She would only reflect on her poor performance in the ancestral hall.
"I know."
The old lady nodded and said, "When you marry into the Marquis' Mansion, remember to come back often. Your younger brothers and sisters' futures are counting on you."
In the final analysis, it means that she should not bear grudges, should not forget her roots, and should not forget her family even after getting married.
Jiang Fei laughed it off.
How could she possibly forget the Jiang family? She still had a mission to accomplish. According to the plot of the original book, she had to commit suicide and drag everyone in the Jiang family with her to be buried with her.
…
After a day of hard work, we finally returned to the west wing when the sun was about to set.
The light had dimmed and the weather was beginning to cool.
Jiutao moved a bamboo lounge chair to the yard, brought a plate of melon seeds, and sat in the yard with Jiang Fei to enjoy the cool air.
Jiang Fei leaned back in the recliner, eating melon seeds, feeling relieved.
By marrying Wei Mingzhen, half of her mission was accomplished, and the day when she would return to the modern era was getting closer and closer.
Jiutao pinched a melon seed, cracked it gently, and looked at the orange sunset glow gradually spreading across the horizon. Suddenly, she said, "There's a jujube tree at the entrance of our village. At this time of year, everyone in the village would gather under it to cool off. My eighth sister and I would always climb the highest."
Jiang Fei almost heard it as Bajie, "You have eight sisters?"
Jiutao nodded and counted on her fingers, "My eldest sister is Datao, my second sister is Ertao..."
"Isn't your eighth sister's name Ba Tao?"
Jiu Tao nodded repeatedly, her eyes sparkling, "Miss, do you know my eighth sister?"
Jiang Fei didn’t know anything, but it was rare to see someone give a name so casually.
Giving birth to nine daughters in a row is even more impressive than the Queen Mother of the West. Even the most patriarchal person would probably be completely dead.
Jiang Fei watched Jiutao picking melon seeds, and put the big ones in front of her.
She will leave sooner or later, what should this silly girl do?
Just as I was thinking about it, a head popped out from the door, and a big, white and clean face was particularly eye-catching.
"Come in." Jiang Fei shouted.
Jiang Chenglang walked in slowly from the door.
Jiang Fei looked him up and down, and saw that his clothes were stained with dust and there was a red mark on his face, but his face was full of joy of victory.
"Hey, Xiaopang is injured."
Jiang Chenglang straightened his neck and said, "But I won!"
"So amazing." Jiang Fei said perfunctorily while cracking melon seeds without even raising her eyelids.
Jiang Chenglang stamped his feet, "Really! I pinned that little bully from the Zhang family to the ground and beat him up, and he was crying for his mother!"
"You still dare to fight, aren't you afraid that your mother will beat you?"
"My mother wouldn't bear to beat me." Jiang Chenglang said proudly, "She would just feel sorry for me and then scold you for corrupting me."
"You still know!" Jiang Fei sat up and pretended to hit him. Jiang Chenglang quickly backed away.
"come over."
Jiang Chenglang refused, "You want to beat me up."
"If you don't come, get out." Jiang Fei glared at him
Jiang Chenglang thought for a moment, then slowly moved over, still shielding his face with one hand. "Don't hit me too hard, or I'll tell Mother you hit me."
Jiang Fei laughed and grabbed a handful of melon seeds. "Well done, here's a reward for you."
Jiang Chenglang frantically picked it up and placed it on the stone table. "I don't know how to peel it. You peel it for me."
"If you don't know how to peel it, don't eat it." Jiang Fei threw a melon ball on Jiang Chenglang's forehead.
Jiang Chenglang looked at Jiutao again, and before he could say anything, Jiang Fei said, "Get out if you dare to let her peel it."
Jiang Chenglang curled his lips, grabbed a melon seed reluctantly, stuffed it into his mouth clumsily, chewed it into crumbs, tasted it a little, and then spit it out.
Learn how they eat them, eat a few more, and let him find some tricks.
When he cracked the first whole melon seed, Jiang Chenglang opened his mouth excitedly, "Look, I can crack melon seeds now."
As if afraid that Jiang Fei couldn't see clearly, he spit into the palm of his hand for Jiang Fei to see.
Jiang Fei dodged in disgust, "Okay, okay, you're awesome."
Jiang Chenglang lowered his head and clumsily peeled melon seeds. Suddenly he looked up and asked, "Are you getting married?"
"What do you mean?" Jiang Fei pretended to hit him, "Can't you call for help?"
Jiang Chenglang snorted in dissatisfaction, and after a while he whispered, "Second sister, are you getting married?"
Jiang Fei glanced at him, "Well, what's wrong?"
Jiang Chenglang's shoulders slumped. "My eldest sister is married now. She used to be the best to me."
"Then I am the worst to you?" Jiang Fei asked.
She still remembered that when Yao punished her by making her kneel in the yard, the fat boy came up and kicked her, saying that she was a bad woman.
"You're not bad to me." Jiang Chenglang said, "But you're a bad person."
"Who said that?"
"My mother and third sister both said so." Jiang Chenglang stared at the handful of melon seeds that Jiutao peeled.
"You don't have a backbone? Can't you tell whether you're a bad person or not?"
Jiang Chenglang thought about it carefully and said, "You are just bad."
"Hey." Jiang Fei lifted her sleeves, and Jiang Chenglang quickly pointed at her.
"Look, you still want to beat me up, you are just bad."
Jiang Fei laughed angrily, "Then tell me, how bad am I?"
Jiang Chenglang cracked his chubby fingers and began to criticize, "First, you flicked my forehead. Second, you wouldn't let Jiutao peel melon seeds for me. Third..."
He was stuck and secretly glanced at Jiang Fei's face.
"What's the third one?" Jiang Fei narrowed his eyes.
Jiang Chenglang suddenly straightened his back, "Third, you are getting married."
"It's bad to get married."
"That's right!" Jiang Chenglang said confidently, "Unless you let me have a dowry."
Jiu Tao almost got a melon seed stuck in her throat, "The young master can't bring any dowry."
"Why?" Jiang Chenglang said angrily, "My eldest sister took two people with her when she got married, and you only have Jiutao, and you took me with you."
Jiang Fei looked at Jiang Chenglang and smiled.
This kid, she just helped him once, and now he's become attached to her.
"It depends on your performance." Jiang Fei lay down in the chair.
She felt that Jiang Chenglang was a little stupid, but not a bad child. He was corrupted by Yao and Jiang Rulin.
There is an incompetent father in the family, and everything is decided by Yao. Jiang Chengjin, the original owner Jiang Rufei, Jiang Rulin, Jiang Chenglang, none of the children have been well educated. It's really a rat shit that spoils the whole barrel.
…
It was late at night and everyone in the house had gone to bed. Occasionally, the noisy chirping of cicadas could be heard outside the room.
Yao tossed and turned but couldn't fall asleep, so she reached out and shook Jiang Bingshi awake.
"Master, you said the wedding date has been set, but I feel uneasy. Why is that?"
