Jiang Yi laughed and said, âYou can tell Dad that whether you marry or not is up to you. Our Jiang family can support you without any trouble.â
âWhat if dad disagrees?â
âThen Third Brother will provide for you.â
âThank you, brother!â Jiang Ning smiled.
Jiang Yi touched her head and laughed, saying, âYou look so much like Mom when she was young. Seeing you makes me happy. Ever since you came back, Momâs spirits have improved a lot too. Itâs great.â
âThird Brother, arenât you going to study at the Academy anymore?â
âIâve been delaying going back. The Academy has been urging me several times already.â
âYou should focus on your studies. Itâs important for your future prospects.â
âDo you really care for me that much?â
âIf you donât pass the examination and have a good future, who will support me?â
âHahaha.â Jiang Yi laughed heartily, feeling very happy. He patted his sisterâs head and affectionately said, âDonât worry, as long as thereâs food for me, thereâll be drink for you.â
âLook at you! Iâm not kidding anymore. Right now, Aunt is talking with someone who came to propose marriage. If youâre not willing, youâd better hurry and tell Dad and Mom in person.â
âThird Brother, give me a push.â
âNaturally.â
Jiang Yi pushed her wheelchair to the front yard and ran into Jiang Yuan on the way.
Jiang Yuan sweetly called out âThird Brotherâ first and then looked at Jiang Ning, scoffed, âYou really know how to get yourself into trouble. Even the Thirteenth Young Master of the Wenren family wants to marry you. Are you trying to piss someone off?â
âYou seem to be quite alive to me.â
âYouââ
âThird Brother, letâs go. If weâre late, itâll be too late. Auntâs temper will probably make her agree early on.â
âDonât worry, Iâll fly you there.â
Jiang Yi pushed her wheelchair at a jog, rushed to the front yard, and found Jiang Ruobai.
Jiang Ruobai was in the study. Seeing his sibling duo rushing over, he frowned, âBe careful. Seventh Sister is pregnant. Watch out.â
Jiang Ning laughed, âItâs okay, Iâm fine. Dad, hurry up and reject the Wenren familyâs marriage proposal.â
âWhy reject it?â
âI canât accept my child having a stepfather, I mean, a stepfather!â
âDonât worry, when the child is born, our Jiang family will raise it as our own grandchild with the Jiang surname. Even if the Wenren family wanted to raise it, they wouldnât have a chance!â
âDad, you know that this child is Prince of Yuâs, right?â
âYour father knows. But what can we do if the Prince of Yu doesnât want us?â Jiang Ruobai sneered, âWe gave him seven days, but he didnât come to pick you up. Do you still have any illusions about him? Your father wants to marry you off just to spite them to death!â
Jiang Ning:ââ¦â
She had no doubt that the âthemâ Jiang Ruobai was referring to were Emperor Li Changgeng and his son, Prince of Yu Li Hongyuan.
A court official competing against an emperor and his son, wasnât this simply courting death?
âDad, calm down, donât be impulsive.â Jiang Ning tried to persuade him earnestly, âThe Emperorâs mind is unpredictable. What if he gets upset and makes things difficult for you? Our little arms canât compete against their big legs.â
âWith your father here, what are you afraid of? Just marry him. Although Wenren Zong is not as noble as the Prince of Yu, he is still a rare talent. Marrying him wonât be a loss for us.â
âI donât want to.â
Jiang Ning thought to herself that she had finally found a reliable identity for her child and successfully got rid of the Prince of Yu. She could live a carefree life with food and drink. Why would she deliberately jump into a pit?
Even if others didnât care, after all, this was ancient times. She was a woman who had been married, had a child, and if she were to marry the cultured and refined Wenren Thirteen, people would inevitably say that she was not worthy of him..
