Marriage of the Di Daughter

Chapter 91: Returning

"No need to wait, there's an opportunity exactly at this time. After uncle Ming Xuan finished with things, I can go to Xiangyang together with uncle, right?"

When this sentence came out, Ye Shijie and Ye Ming Xuan were both stunned. Tong'er also opened her eyes wide.

After a long time, Ye Ming Xuan asked suspiciously: "Just now, did you say you want to go back to Xiangyang together with me?" 

"Yes." Jiang Li replied frankly, "It's been many years since I have seen my maternal grandmother and the other uncles. I was young at that time and made many mistakes. Later on, after understanding the ways of the world, I felt quite repentant but had no opportunity to personally apologize. Now since uncle has come to Yanjing and going to go back to Xiangyang in a few days, that will be an opportunity." She lowered her head slightly in remorse: "Never having the chance to be filial to maternal grandmother, always feeling uneasy whenever the thought comes up."

Ye Shijie wanted to subconsciously sneer. These words coming out of Jiang Li's mouth were honestly like a joke. It should be known that Jiang Li didn't have such a good face towards the Ye family people who were going to pick her up. But the words to mock her were left like that, as Ye Shijie could let the words out when he looked at Jiang Li's smiling eyes.

If she was lying, she must be the most brilliant liar under the heavens. Those pair of eyes looked so sincere without any fakeness, even being doubtful seemed like an insult.

Ye Ming Xuan was even more shocked and was speechless.

Ye Ming Xuan did business all year round. Among the three sons in the Ye family, he was the shrewdest and the most suspicious. As a result, he was not the same as Ye Shijie. Ye Shijie himself had not discovered that he had unconsciously already begun to speak of Jiang Li with acknowledgement and had unknowingly approved of Jiang Li's change. Yet Ye Ming Xuan firmly believed that a person's inherent quality would not change easily.

Moreover, even if the young Jiang Li was led astray by others and alienated the Ye family, it'd been so many years after the Ye family had left, why didn't the person behind strike while the iron was hot and continue to lead Jiang Li down? No matter how one saw it, Jiang Li's sudden sobriety was unreasonable.

Actually, today's Jiang Li was indeed not the same as the person in his memory. Whether it was her temperament and way of conversing, Jiang Li could be considered as excellent among the noble ladies of Yanjing. As for suddenly showing intimacy towards the people of the Ye family, Ye Ming Xuan didn't dare to rashly reach a conclusion. He thought it was perhaps the Jiang family member or Jiang Yuan Bai who instructed her, or perhaps it was Jiang Li herself who had other plans. Who couldn't show friendliness on their face?

However, abruptly saying that she wanted to return to Xiangyang, it immediately made Ye Ming Xuan puzzled.

Firstly, though the Ye family was a wealthy family, Xiangyang was really incomparable with Yanjing's hustle and bustle. The entire journey would be travel-worn, could a pampered and spoiled eldest daughter of an affluent family be able to accept it? On another aspect, if this matter was incited by Jiang Yuan Bai or a person from the Jiang family, what benefits could there be in letting Jiang Li return to the Ye family? To be honest, just Jiang Li alone in the Ye family could not set off any storm, on the contrary, her strength alone was weak. Unable to ruin things, purely desiring to curry favor with the Ye family? Was it worthwhile for the Jiang family?

"Uncle doesn't have to think so much," Jiang Li was all smiles: "I am just returning to see grandmother, that's all." Jiang Li suddenly opened her mouth as if she was able to peep into Ye Ming Xuan's mind.
