Isnât she just asking for trouble?
Jiang Ning firmly declined.
Jiang Ruobai said, âDaughter, if you refuse this marriage proposal, it will be difficult to find a better one in the future.â
âI wonât look for one. Dad, do you dislike your daughter so much that youâre anxious to marry me off?â
âOh, how could Dad dislike you? I love you so much. Thatâs why Iâm trying to find you the best man. If the Prince of Yu is not suitable, then letâs switch to Wenren Zong.â
âNo! No!â
âWhy not? You have to give a reason. If you can convince Dad, I will refuse this marriage.â
âBecause, becauseâ¦â
âIs it because you still have feelings for the Prince of Yu?â
âAh?â Jiang Ning was startled, then quickly nodded, âThatâs right, thatâs the reason!â
Jiang Yi asked, âSeventh Sister, have you fallen for the Prince of Yu?â
âYes⦠I guess.â
âSigh.â Jiang Ruobai sighed, âWhat do you see in him?â
Jiang Ning:â???â
Werenât you the one who was eager to become his father-in-law?
Now that my daughterâs married off, youâre still saying this. Do you want her to be married to one man but have her heart set on another?
Perhaps realizing that his words were indeed somewhat inappropriate, Jiang Ruobai coughed lightly, âWhat I meant was, itâs hard to know the true character of the Prince of Yu. I thought he was a good man, but he turned out to be a deceitful one. My dear daughter, itâs not too late for you to escape.â
âI canât escape, I just like him!â Jiang Ning spoke righteously.
âHe has divorced youâ¦â
âEven if he divorced me, I still like him! Thereâs only him in my heart, and I canât marry another man!â
âIsnât that a bit extreme?â
âA woman canât marry twice. I swear to be a chaste heroine! Iâll win a chaste archway for our Jiang Family!â
Jiang Ruobai exchanged glances with his son.
His daughter really lacked insight.
What to do?
The Prince of Yu didnât want her anymore, yet she still had her heart set on him, wanting to be whatâ¦a chaste heroine?
What nonsense.
The Jiang Family doesnât need a chaste archway.
Can it be eaten or drunk?
Why not choose a young, handsome, and promising man?
Such a stubborn girl.
Jiang Ruobai wished he could shake Jiang Ningâs head awake, but he couldnât bear to.
âDaughter, think it over.â
âMy stomach is not wellâ¦â
âAlright, alright, if you donât want it, you donât want it.â Jiang Ruobai quickly stood up, âIâll go reply to them now.â
At this moment, Jiang Yuan suddenly walked out from the door and said hesitantly, âDad.â
âOh, Fifth Sister, what is it?â
âDad, Iâm older than Seventh Sister.â Jiang Yuan said shyly, âSince Seventh Sister doesnât want this marriage proposal, thenâ¦â
Jiang Ruobai was no fool, he could easily understand his fifth daughterâs intentions.
He thought about it. Since Jiang Ning didnât want it, it wouldnât be a bad idea to arrange this marriage for his fifth daughter.
After all, daughters grow up and need to get married.
âAlright, you go with me and meet Lady Yuan first.â
âThank you, Dad!â
Jiang Yuan was overjoyed and quickly straightened her skirt, following Jiang Ruobai out.
Seeing Jiang Ruobai walk away quickly, Jiang Ning let out a sigh of relief.
Jiang Yi sighed, âLook, as soon as you refused, someone else took the offer. Wenren Zong is actually a really good choice.â
âThen we should congratulate Fifth Sister on her upcoming good marriage.â
âAnd youâ¦â
âThird Brother, itâs so hot today. Iâll make grass jelly and taro balls for you to eat, is that okay?â Jiang Ning quickly changed the subject.
âWhat jelly?â
âMy cooking is okay. Come on, give it a try.â
âAlright, I canât do anything about you.â
The siblings headed towards the kitchen.
Thinking of the free and easy days ahead, as well as the comfort of being in the middle of her pregnancy, Jiang Ning was in high spirits and itching to make some dessert..
