Marriage of the Di Daughter Chapter 92 Part 1: Travelling Together

The next day, Jiang Li had dressed herself up since early morning.

Currently, the entire Jiang residence already knew about her wanting to go back to Xiangyang. At the beginning, Ji Shuran initially opposed in front of Ye Ming Xuan, until later unknowingly how the idea changed. She displayed a warm and caring mother appearance and asked Jiang Li if she lacked anything.

On the contrary, when Jiang Jing Rui found out that Jiang Li was going to Xiangyang, he sat in Fang Fei Garden for a long time. It’s nothing more than grumbling that Jiang Li was not sincere. She’s going back to Xiangyang to have fun but did not bring him together. He unexpectedly thought of following Jiang Li to go to Xiangyang together.

Jiang Li felt both angry and funny. Jiang Jing Rui didn’t even know what kind of place Xiangyang was and still thought that it was a place of amusement. Besides, she didn’t go to Xiangyang to play around. It’s also unknown whether the Ye family was going to meet her or not. Even as the outer granddaughter, her stay could not be said as a matter of fact. Moreover Jiang Jing Rui, a relative in name only, it’s too embarrassing for him to go.

Most importantly, even if everything was settled, Jiang Jing Rui’s mother, Lu-shi, certainly would not allow Jiang Jing Rui to foolishly make trouble.

After reasoning with him in every way possible, Jiang Jing Rui dispelled this thought. Jiang Li sighed inside, it seemed that all the people in the Jiang family thought that she would pass the time nicely when she visited the Ye family. Little did they know that the road was long and it might not be as free and unfettered as they imagined.

It was still a blazing hot day yesterday, but there’s the pattering sounds of light rain today.

The autumn days in Yanjing appeared brief, the blistering heat of summertime seemingly still present, yet in a blink of an eye, the cold wind rustled. Looking at the withering branches and dried up leaves on the ground, it’s really hard to imagine yesterday’s grandeur and bustling noise.

Tong’er stretched her hand outside to feel, then turned around to speak to Jiang Li: “Miss, the rain is not light, how about we don’t go out and change to another day.”

“No matter.” Jiang Li was tying her cloak and after listening to her, she said: “Anyway we will be in the carriage and don’t walk much.”

Tong’er had no alternative but to drop it.

Jiang Li told them, when they strolled around today, they could buy some presents for the Ye family. After old madam Jiang was aware of it, she asked Jiang Li to select carefully and specially let Zhen Zhu to send some silvers.

Not anticipating today to rain, Tong’er also didn’t think that it was an urgent matter. In any caseYe Ming Xuan still had to stay around 10 days in Yanjing. It’s fine to go out another day when the weather would be better. Who knew that the usually easygoing Jiang Li would be so stubborn today.

Jiang Li fastened her cloak and stood in front of the mirror.

Jiang second miss’s appearance wasn’t as outstanding as Xue Fang Fei. However, her foundation was actually not bad, quiet and very elegant. These days, Jiang Li was raised in the Jiang residence and the food was much better than in Mount Qingcheng. That wan and sallow and weak appearance had disappeared and at first glance, she looked healthy, moist and bright.

“Miss is really good-looking.” Bai Xue stood on the side and sincerely exclaimed in admiration, “just like coming out of a painting.”

“Exactly,” Tong’er nodded, ”when it was in Mount Qingcheng, miss could only wear dark clothes, our miss’s beauty was not conspicuous. Looking now, I see there’s no one who’s more beautiful than our miss in Yanjing. If we let the nuns in Mount Qingcheng see, guaranteed no one will recognize.”

Jiang Li looked at herself in the mirror, the face has familiar expressions, but the facial features are nevertheless unfamiliar. When coming in front of Xue Zhao, can Xue Zhao recognize her?

Father…… should also be unable to recognize her, right?

A wave of sorrow poured from her heart, she turned her head to the side and no longer looked at the mirror. She just said: “Let’s go.”

“Ok.” Tong’er pushed the door open.

……

Due to the rain, there were not many people walking outside. Even only a few of the hawkers selling sugar-coated hawthorn could be seen on the street. Jiang Li, Tong’er and Bai Xue could only stroll around the jewelry store or the cloth shop. The usual peddlers carrying things probably also did not come out today.

However, she heard that there were not many grandsons among the three sons of the Ye family. Apart from Ye Shijie, there’s only Ye Ming Xuan that had a son and a daughter. The Ye family’s fourth son had not yet married so did not have any descendants. Therefore, buying things for the younger generation was not too difficult.

After a while, Jiang Li had also selected the present to be given to each of them.

Sending a return gift really wasn’t a simple thing. In many great families, the mother would train the daughter of the first wife, even specially instructing them in returning gifts. If the di daughter married a government official in the future, the husband having social contacts, returning gifts were something that could not be avoided. If the return gift was too precious, it would appear heavy; if the return gift was too light, it would appear to neglect, it was really very hard.

However, starting when she followed Shen Yurong to engage in social activities after he became the top scorer, Jiang Li learnt how to send return gifts. When in Tongxiang, Xue Huaiyuan had clean hands and would never receive people’s gifts. It’s not the same as in Yanjing, sometimes, the return gift could not be too simple, but if returning expensively, mother Shen would say something. She could only furtively take out a part to make up from her dowry.

Presumably, the current Shen Yurong did not have this complication. Princess Yongning did not lack silver, no matter how precious the return gift had to be, it would not reach a stage where they would be strapped for cash. Naturally also no need to throw in their own dowry.

Towards the three uncles and two aunts, as well as old madam Ye’s cousins, Jiang Li had prepared different gifts. In this regard, she had specially inquired Ye Ming Xuan of their dispositions and she was pleased with the things bought.

Mid-day, they casually ate a bit in one of the restaurants. Seeing that the rain had not let up, Tong’er said: “It seems that the rain will not cease for a while. Miss, let’s go back after eating. There’s also nothing interesting outside.”
