Marriage of the Di Daughter

Chapter 93 Part 3: The Ye Family

Zhuo-shi, the thin and tall madam with a scholarly air, Ye Ming Xuan’s wife, saw Jiang Li and her face turned pale all of a sudden. She probably thought that Jiang Li was a kind of woman Ye Ming Xuan accepted on the road. This kind occurred often in their wealthy merchants circle. On the route of going out to do business, separated for three to five years, when they go back, bringing a strange woman, also a so-called son. Ye Ming Xuan left for several months, impossible to have a son, but accepting a woman to use along the road was not impossible.

Men were always careless in this kind of thing. Ye Ming Xuan had not yet discovered his wife’s abnormal expression, but Jiang Li could make it out and guessed Zhou-shi’s identity already. In order to avoid misunderstanding, she could only step forward and smilingly called Zhuo-shi: “Aunt.”

This greeting actually made Zhuo-shi stunned, her pale complexion just now faded and was replaced by confusion. She asked: “Master, who is this young girl? Why did she call me aunt?”

Ye Ming Xuan burst into laughter. While going straight towards the blue dressed man who stood up, Ye Ming Xuan said: “Older brother, this time I did not return alone. Look, who’s this, can you still recognize her?”

Everyone was puzzled, only Ye Ming Hui, the blue dressed man, took note of how Jiang Li addressed Zhuo-shi as “aunt”, and somewhat had a guess in his mind.

“This is Zhen Zhen’s daughter, Ah Li.” Ye Ming Xuan smiled and said: “The last time seeing Ah Li, she was just a tiny child, now she has grown as a young lady. Ah Li, this is your Uncle Ming Hui, eldest aunt.”

Jiang Li smiled and said: “Uncle Ming Hui, eldest aunt.”

Both Ye Ming Hui and his wife, Guan-shi, stared blankly. Guan-shi did not know what to do while Ye Ming Hui’s brows wrinkled.

There’s silence in the room.

After a short period of time, Ye Ru Feng suddenly opened his mouth. He looked at Jiang Li with contempt and said: “She’s younger aunt’s daughter. That person who disdains us for being a merchant, the eldest daughter who made grandmother so angry that she fell ill?”

Zhuo-shi pulled Ye Ru Feng in a hurry. Ye Ru Feng’s gaze was sharp and discourteously continued speaking: “The deed was done, why still afraid of what people say!”

In an instant, everyone inside the room fell silent, the atmosphere became extremely awkward.

Originally, when Ye Ming Xuan returned to Xiangyang, he did not mention that Jiang Li was also returning together with him. All the people in the Ye family did not know that Jiang Li would come. Coming so abruptly at this time, nobody knew how to deal with it. To speak of, Jiang Li’s words many years ago had hurt old madam Ye’s heart and also hurt all the people of the Ye family’s hearts. Henceforth, they treated Jiang Li as if there was no such person. Who would know that she would suddenly appear.

Ye Ming Hui looked reproachfully at Ye Ming Xuan, reprimanding him for not explaining this matter earlier. Ye Ming Xuan had an innocent look on his face, but he couldn’t help watching how Jiang Li would react.

Jiang Li insisted on returning to Xiangyang together with him, so she should have anticipated such an outcome in advance. The Ye family would not be heartless, but first, what will Jiang Li do and say?

Jiang Li looked at the situation in front of her, the smile on her face did not waver in the slightest.

Tong’er was feeling both embarrassed and grievous. She was aware of Jiang Li’s affair that year. Although admittedly Jiang Li was wrong in this matter, her young miss was only five years old at that time. Time had passed for so many years already, why the need to still brood over old matters? If she had known that it would be like this, her young lady should not have returned to Xiangyang and be subjected to this annoying anger. She returned to Xiangyang to look at old madam Ye with good intention, but in the end, she ran into a stone wall, truly depressing.

Jiang Li’s soft voice sounded at this time: “Yes, I am precisely ‘that’ Jiang Li.”

The people of the Ye family were dumbfounded.

Ye ing Xuan was almost choked by his own saliva.

When Jiang Li spoke, it was warm, tender and polite, with a smile on her face. Everyone said reaching out a hand wouldn’t hit a smiling person, let alone a smiling and lovely pretty girl. This slap would be even more impossible to go down. Apart from Ye Ru Feng, the other members of the Ye family had a feeling of not knowing how to handle this difficult situation.

This girl could really deal with varying circumstances based on basic principles. Ye Ming Xuan lamented in his heart before suddenly recalling what Ye Shijie had told him before “Jiang Li is a surprising person”. This sentence was not false at all. She was indeed unexpected, as if normal people’s embarrassment, cutting a sorry figure and not knowing what to do did not exist in her. She could always use her unusual calm attitude to cope with every kind of circumstance.

Including the present moment.

Ye Ming Xuan suddenly wanted to laugh. Presumably, his own older brother, the always steady and proper Ye Ming Hui, was also somewhat caught unprepared as he faced this kind of situation. Luckily he still understood his own role in the Ye family, so he cleared his throat and said: “This is your second aunt.” He looked towards Jiang Li as he introduced his wife.

Jiang Li smiled at Zhuo-shi and nodded: “Second aunt.”

Subconsciously, Zhuo-shi returned with a smile before reacting with surprise afterwards. This young girl’s smile is too sincere. When she went to Yanjing in that year to meet Jiang Li, Ye Ming Hui and the brothers, Ye Shijie, and old madam Ye were all there, however, she was not present. But Jiang Li’s rumor was known up and down the Ye family. It’s impossible for Ye Ming Hui and Ye Ming Xuan to lie, in addition, it was not necessary to lie for this matter. As a result, everyone never doubted that Jiang Li was a heartless, hypocritical, harsh and merciless eldest miss. However, after seeing her with her own eyes, Zhuo-shi couldn’t help thinking that perhaps there’s misunderstanding in the matter of that year. Such an adorable and gentle girl, how could she be the kind of person they spoke of in their mouths?
