Marriage of the Di Daughter Chapter 139 Part 2: Meeting

Jiang Yuan Bai shook his head, “I also didn’t know that Yue’er was harmed by her. Yue’er was only four years old….. Her heart is so ruthless. I did not expect her to have an affair even more, and seized the opportunity to frame you, let you leave the Jiang family….. Ji-s.h.i.+ is wrong, I am also in the wrong, I almost let something big happen to the Jiang family.” He laughed at himself, “Xiao Li, you must hate me very much, right?”

“Not bad.” Jiang Li said, “Actually, since that time, I no longer hold any hope whether anyone would stand firmly by my side and believe me unconditionally. Therefore, whatever I run into, I will not feel wronged. Father, don’t you feel it strange, why am I so attentive to County Deputy Xue? It’s because I really believe that County Deputy Xue suffers the same way that I do. No one believes him, and no one was willing to speak up for him. Seeing County Deputy Xue is like seeing the former me. The former matters are irreparable, at least I can help County Deputy Xue to redress the injustice now.” Jiang Li smiled, “This is very satisfying, father.”

Jiang Yuan Bai understood her words. She did not harbor resentment towards him, however, she no longer admired Jiang Yuan Bai like a child admires her father.

Jiang Yuan Bai closed his eyes.

Jiang Li put down her chopsticks and said, “Father, is there anything else? If there’s nothing else to say, I will take my leave first.”

“Where are you going?”

“Going to the Ye family to see Uncle Ye and elder cousin Ye.” Jiang Li paused before saying, “Don’t worry, father, I will not say a word about what happened the day before yesterday. The Jiang family’s reputation must not be ruined, I know.”

She was very sensible and knew to consider the Jiang family. But it made the current Jiang Yuan Bai feel even more distressed.

He waved his hand weakly, “Go.”

“Yes, father.”

……

After a simple tidying up, Jiang Li went onto the carriage to go to the Ye mansion.

Maybe it was to compensate her, nowadays, Jiang Yuan Bai did not say much about her going to the Ye family’s mansion. The gatekeeper also did not ask much, compared to before, Jiang Li had much more freedom.

In the carriage, Tong’er said, “Finally Master knew to feel distress to miss. This time, miss can be considered to have tide the hard times, and it’s just the beginning of the good times. Now that Ji-s.h.i.+’s true colors are seen clearly, there will be no one else inside the mansion who will hinder Miss in the future.”

Jiang Li smiled, “Let’s hope so.”

Actually, regarding the fight in the Jiang family, aside from wanting to demand justice for Jiang second miss, she herself did not have much interest. On the contrary, going to the Ye mansion this time made her more nervous than when she was facing Taoist priest Chong Xu two days ago.

Zhao Ke said Ji Heng wanted to bring her to meet someone, who was the number one divine doctor in Northern Yan, and who was most probably able to treat her father’s illness. Jiang Li dreamed of having Xue Huai Yuan’s mind restored. For her, being able to meet Xue Huai Yuan and recognizing each other was the most happy thing on earth. At least it would make her understand that, as Xue Fang Fei, she was not alone in this world.

Jiang Li became more nervous the closer she got to the Ye mansion, as if her heart almost jumped out. Tong’er and Bai Xue felt somewhat strange, not knowing what the matter was with Jiang Li.

When they reached the Ye mansion, the gatekeeper saw the Jiang family’s carriage and immediately came up to welcome them warmly and lead the horse. The Servant boy smiled and said, “At last second miss is here. You have not come for three days, the third master thought that something has happened to you. If the young master did not restrain the third master, he would have made a trip to the Jiang residence.”

Jiang Li smiled, “I’m fine.”

No matter how good the Jiang residence was, in Ye MIng Yu’s eyes, it was like a tiger’s den. Jiang Li would suffer hards.h.i.+p when she went in and would not live comfortably.

“Third master is sincerely treating Miss well.” Bai Xue lamented.

When they reached the Ye family’s yard, they saw Ye Ming Yu come out carrying a sword. Probably the gatekeeper had not yet informed them of their arrival, when Ye Ming Yu saw them, he nearly jumped. He said, “Ah Li, you’re here!”

“Uncle.” Jiang Li stepped forward.

“Why haven’t you come to the mansion these last two days? I was thinking of going to the Jiang residence to see you, but that boy, s.h.i.+jie, did not let me, and said that you probably had your own matters. How? Are you okay? Your father did not hit you right?”

Jiang Li shook her head, “I’m fine, uncle, I was infected with a cold these days, so I stayed in the house and did not go out.”

“Cold?” Ye Ming Yu widened his eyes and said, “Then why did you go out? Don’t go out if you have a cold!”

“I’m over it. Is cousin Ye here?” Jiang Li looked around but did not see Ye s.h.i.+jie’s silhouette.

“There’s something in the Ministry of Revenue and he hurried over there.” Ye Ming Yu sat on a chair, “Those who don’t know would think he is some kind of big official, the lamp will stay on until very late at night every day. Several times, when I woke up at night, this boy was still looking at the books. I don’t know what he is doing.”

“Cousin Ye has just taken office, precisely the time to get busy.” Jiang Li smiled, “Is County Deputy Xue doing well these days?”

“Rather well.” Ye Ming Yu said angrily, “Your uncle accompanies him playing everyday, how could it not be good? Due to this, I was laughed at by my brothers.” He grumbled unhappily.

“It’s all because I asked Uncle to take care of County Deputy Xue and make Uncle work hard.” Jiang Li said with remorse.

Ye Ming Yu saw Jiang Li looking like this and promptly said, “Not troublesome, hey, it’s not troublesome, everyone is one family, anyway I don’t have anything to do in Yanjing so just accompany him to play. Ah Li, you don’t have to thank me. It’s too unfamiliar!” At first, Ye Ming Yu also thought that he was not a person who had tender feelings for the opposite s.e.x, but when a delicate little girl faced him and showed a beseeching and remorseful expression, Ye Ming Yu could not show a fierce look.

He felt like half of it was his mistake.

“That’s right, Ah Li,” Ye Ming Yu hesitated for a while before saying, “That, the duke is in our mansion.”

Originally, Jiang Li was still thinking how to tactfully ask Ye Ming Yu about Ji Heng. Or perhaps Ji Heng did not give prior notice to Ye Ming Yu and would wait until she was alone and in a secluded corner before he appeared. She did not expect Ye Ming Yu to say this so openly.

Jiang Li was taken aback.

“He said you would come this afternoon, I still thought it was a lie.” Ye Ming Yu said, “I didn’t expect it to be true.”

Happy New Year 2025! May this year be a good year for all of us, may health and happiness be with us throughout the year and whatever with strive to achieve will be fulfilled!
