Marriage of the Di Daughter

Chapter 107 Part 2: Homecoming

“Little one,” old madam Ye seemed somewhat anxious, “why are you following him to groundlessly make trouble? Your third uncle is a reckless person, all day long parading on the street. You follow him, who knows what he is doing in Tongxiang still bringing you along. I won’t let you suffer from hardship and grievance.”

With a few words, Jiang Li understood Ye Ming Yu’s ideas clearly. Ye Ming Yu probably really thought Jiang Li’s lame excuse was utterly bad and made one up himself. He said that he was going to Tongxiang to handle things and needed Jiang Li to lend a hand, thus proposing to bring Jiang Li along. Ye Ming Yu did not do proper business in the Ye family, no one would specifically ask him what he actually was going to do. Even if they were to ask, Ye Ming Yu could also come up with a lot of reasons. It’s not surprising what kind of lies could come out of his mouth. But others’ attacks and criticisms would be aimed at Ye Ming Yu and no one would think that Jiang Li was wrong.

Because Jiang Li was “taken away” by Ye Ming Yu.

Having thought of this clearly, Jiang Li sent a thankful glance at Ye Ming Yu. Ye Ming Yu’s thoughtful consideration here, protecting her, made her feel thankful.

Probably stimulated by Jiang Li’s thankful gaze, Ye Ming Yu at once replied in a loud voice, “Mother, why are you speaking so unfairly! I’m Ah Li’s uncle, can I harm Ah Li? That’s impossible! Moreover, with me at the side, who would dare to bully Ah Li!”

“It makes people more anxious having you beside her.” Ye Ming Xuan said unhappily. “No, what do you actually want Ah Li to help you with? Ah Li is just a little girl. You, such a grown-up, still need a little girl’s help, aren’t you ashamed?!”

“Old second, don’t sow dissension,” Ye Ming Yu did not give in. “So what if it’s a little girl? Don’t mention anything else, this time’s ancient fragrant satin’s matter, wasn’t it resolved by relying on Ah Li’s ability. Little girl, humph, Ah Li is not an ordinary little girl. She has a great ability, with Ah Li’s help, it’s too late for me to be happy, why should I be ashamed!”

Ye Ming Xuan was stunned by Ye Ming Yu’s shamelessness and unable to say another word. In a deep voice, Ye MIng Hui said, “Making trouble! No matter what, it’s okay if you act willfully by yourself, don’t bring Ah Li along! Or else, you speak, in the end, what are you going to do?”

Ye Jia Er and Ye Ru Feng looked here for a while, then looked there for a while. Although Ye Ming Yu spoke somewhat excessively, the Ye family’s younger generation normally liked to play with him. At this moment, they really could not hit a person when he’s down.

“Uncle Ming Hui, Uncle Ming Xuan,” Jiang Li spoke, “I have indeed discussed this with Uncle Ming Yu. As to what to do, please don’t make it difficult for Uncle Ming Yu. I’m fine, coming to Xiangyang this time around, I also want to walk and see around more. I’ve never been to Tongxiang and this time, I can follow Uncle Ming Yu to gain knowledge and experience. Moreover, it’s the same family, why talk about lending a hand? I’m not afraid of trouble, if in the future I got into trouble, perhaps I still have to rely on Uncle Ming Yu, rely on all of you to help me.”

Ye Ming Yu looked at Jiang Li from the side, his mind filled with wonder. People who have read books in great families are different, talking nonsense can also sound justified, refined and educated. Look at the most difficult to handle eldest brother and second brother, at this time, don’t they have nothing to say?

Guan-shi couldn’t help saying, “But we are worried about you…..”

Ye Ming Yu rolled his eyes. Worried about Jiang Li but not worried about him. Does it mean he was picked up by his parents? Is he a fake member of the Ye family?

“No need to worry about me,” Jiang Li smiled softly, “I swear to grandmother, uncles and aunts that Uncle Min Yu absolutely did not go out to groundlessly make trouble, rather, he is going to do a serious matter. There will be no danger.”

She looked gentle, her words sincere, it’s very easy to let people involuntarily be convinced with her words. If the same words were spoken through Ye Ming Yu’s mouth, afraid nobody would be convinced.

Old madam Ye sighed and spoke first, “Since Ah Li has already had this idea, just go and do it then.” She looked at Jiang Li and lovingly said, “don’t blame your uncles and aunts for saying more, they are truly worried that you, a little girl, can’t cope with it.”

Jiang Li pulled old madam Ye’s hand, smiled and said, “I know. Grandmother, I’m big now and can protect myself.”

Old madam Ye fell into a daze when she heard this. She once again seemed to see the young Ye Zhen Zhen’s appearance like jade in that year. When she was about to marry Jiang Yuan Bai, old madam Ye was worried that she would feel wronged after she married. Ye Zhen Zhen immediately pouted her mouth in anger and coquettishly said, “Zhen Zhen is big now and can protect myself.”

In the end, she failed to protect herself.

There’s a sour taste in old madam Ye’s heart and tears almost fell. She patted Jiang Li’s hand and said, “Is that so, then go quickly and come back quickly.” She asked a servant girl to come over and support her to walk inside the room.

Jiang Li was silent.

She could feel that old madam Ye must be thinking of the old things. In fact, the Ye family members should have felt them too. Ye Ming Yu’s voice broke the gloomy atmosphere. He shouted, “Everyone agrees right? Since everyone agrees, then we will not stay longer. It’s time, Ah Li, let’s go, listen to mother’s words, go quickly and come back quickly!”

Ye Ming Hui gave him a blank look and said, “Take good care of Ah Li!”

……

The plan to depart Xiangyang and go to Tongxiang was realized so simply.

When sitting in the carriage, Jiang Li had an unreal feeling.

This time, she returned to Xiangyang from Yanjing, for nothing else but to get news about her father and to personally take a trip to Tongxiang. It would be good if she could offer a pillar of incense to her father. However, she had never thought that she could still see her father. She was faintly agitated and could not hold herself.
