Marriage of the Di Daughter

Chapter 24 Part 1:

Inside Jixiang Lou, Jiang Li and her two companions, the three of them were picking up jewelry.

Didn’t know if it was due to fear of Jiang Li’s “evil reputation”, the shopkeeper, along with each and every assistant there, served her with 120% attentiveness. It so happened that there were no other customers today. The shopkeeper practically brought all the newly-made jewelry out for Jiang Li to pick and choose.

At first, Xiang Qiao thought that when Jiang Li picked a present for Jiang Youyao, no need to mention whole-heartedly, perhaps she would still do something in the dark. However, she didn’t expect Jiang Li to choose the gift carefully, even generously buying a set of phoenix headgear with a drop of round red jade. This head ornament set cost exactly 300 silvers.

Old madam Jiang gave Jiang Li a box of silvers that amounted to 400 silvers. After buying this headgear, she would be left with only 100 silvers.

Looking at Jiang Li, there wasn’t even a bit of regret on her face. Xiang Qiao felt that after all, she really didn’t know what this second miss was thinking.

The shopkeeper and shop assistants had actually been serving with fear and trepidation, who knew that Jiang Li didn’t deliberately make things difficult for them from start to finish. She was even more amiable compared to other Yanjing honorable ladies, it was somewhat unimaginable.

After buying this headgear, it was impossible to buy other things in Jixiang Lou using the remaining silvers. The three of them went out of the door and were about to walk in the direction of the carriage when Tong’er suddenly pointed to a pawn shop not so far away and spoke to Jiang Li: “Young lady, at that time, when this servant was leaving the capital, this servant put a piece of jade given by this servant’s late mother there. This servant would like to go and see if the piece of jade is still there. If it’s still there, it would be good to redeem and keep it as a memento.”

Jiang Li right away replied: “You go then.” Afterwards, she took the remaining silvers and handed them to Tong’er, “Use these.”

Tong’er couldn’t decline and taking the silvers, went in the direction of the pawn shop. Xiang Qiao that remained behind looked blankly at Jiang Li, Jiang Li treated her subordinates too well. Then thinking of her many benefits as she stayed by Jiang Li’s side, she genuinely thought it over and consoled herself. There was a far gap, having a master like this was much better compared to following after the third miss or Ji Shuran. There was a bit of regret in Xiang Qiao’s heart, if Jiang Li wasn’t Jiang family’s second miss destined to be dealt with by Ji Shuran and end up miserably, she really would be willing to follow after this master. She would be living very comfortably.

Their appearance at the front of Jixiang Lou fell onto the eyes of the two people sitting next to the window of “Wang Xian Lou”.

Two people were sitting opposite to each other on the pear wood table. One of them had thick eyebrows and big eyes, wearing a black armor with a yellow ribbon embroidered at the side, seemingly a person in the military. His action of pouring tea was rough but carrying a bit of chivalry. He opened his mouth carelessly: “Which Jiang family’s miss is that? Why still go to the pawn shop?”

After a moment passed, the person sitting opposite answered slowly: “Ranked second.”

“Ranked second?” The person wearing military attire was smacking his lips and suddenly came to a realization, “Jiang second miss? The one who recently returned, Jiang Yuan Bai’s eldest daughter? The one you mentioned is the evil daughter who harmed the mother and murdered the younger brother? Big boss, you shouldn’t joke this way, right?!”

The two people standing in front of Jixiang Lou, no need to talk about the servants’ attire, the other person actually had a slim figure, like a weak willow swayed by the wind. Perhaps the eyesight of the person with the military attire was rather good, he could more or less see Jiang second miss’s appearance. He muttered: “She looks so pitiful, this is Jiang second miss? I, Kong Liu, have never been wrong in looking at people. Either you made a mistake in identifying the person, or this young lady had never done those deeds!”

The person sitting opposite didn’t pay any attention to him.

The one called Kong Liu saw his friend ignored him and asked another sentence: “....... really is?”

The person opposite still ignored him. but Kong Liu understood right away, this was indeed the truth. He spoke: “Goodness, you really cannot judge a book by its cover. But how do you know that she is Jiang second miss? Have you met her?”

Ji Heng: “Yes, every night, in my dreams 😏 ” <- that’s what we all are hoping he’d answer right? 😏
