Marriage of the Di Daughter Chapter 81 Part 5: Future Prospects
Jiang Yu’e thought hatefully, why is the person Zhou Yan Bang planned to meet isn’t her? She was clearly not much worse off than Jiang Li or Jiang You Yao. Is it just because of her family background that she doesn’t have the qualification to enter Zhou Yan Bang’s eyes?
Thinking that the person entangled with Jiang Li and Jiang You Yao was Zhou Yan Bang, the heir of Ningyuan Marquis, while she didn’t know whether her future husband could even be compared to Zhou Yan Bang’s toe, made Jiang Yu’e suddenly feel worried. As if she was no longer interested to tattle, even the thought of seeing Jiang Li be humiliated grew faint.
Jiang Yu’e’s head was dizzy from time to time and her heart gradually warmed up. Suddenly, a bold idea flashed through her mind.
What if the person keeping the appointment with Zhou Yan Bang was herself?
If she used Jiang Li’s name and borrowed this slip of paper to be together with Zhou Yan Bang, would Zhou Yan Bang take pity on her and give birth to a trace of love, thus thinking of a way to include her in entering Ningyuan Marquis’s residence?
Actually, Jiang Yu’e didn’t have the pipe dream of immediately becoming Zhou Yan Bang’s wife. She was aware that with her identity, it was absolutely impossible to be Zhou Yan Bang’s main wife. However, becoming a concubine, becoming a noble concubine, isn’t it also good? There’s one thing Jiang Li said that was right, rather than being an ordinary person’s wife, it’s better to be Zhou Yan Bang’s concubine. At least Zhou Yan Bang was someone that everyone in Yanjing praised as being a handsome and talented youth. The family business was big, he was also popular and handsome. If she married, it’s truly not a loss.
The more she pondered, the more she thought that this was feasible. Jiang Yu’e looked at the slip of paper in her palm and clasped it tightly.
She had decided.
At this moment, the palace maid who carried the clothes came back from outside. Upon seeing this, Jiang Yu’e hurriedly stood up.
She was impatient to change into clean clothes and go to fulfill the appointment with Zhou Yan Bang. Her anxious appearance made the palace maid suspicious. Jiang Yu’e wanted to deliberately draw the person away and smiled as she said: “I want to go to the toilet all of a sudden, will go right after changing clothes. Elder sister, no need to accompany me here, just point the direction for me.”
The palace maid was probably just someone Ji Shuran called at random. After the matter was done, there shouldn’t be any other matters to attend to. As a result, she didn’t doubt Jiang Yu’e’s words. She soon pointed the directions to Jiang Yu’e and said: “It’s not far, young lady just need to walk straight ahead until the end then turn right. You’ll see it.”
Jiang Yu’e changed her clothes and pushed the door to go out. She first walked in the direction of the toilet, when she reached the end, before turning to the right, she turned around to see that no one was following her. She immediately changed direction and walked towards another path.
It was precisely like what Zhou Yan Bang said in the slip of paper, Yu Xiu Pavilion on the east door behind the garden.
Jiang Yu’e walked very quickly, in the end, she actually trotted for the rest of the way.
As she was running, the cool night wind blew against her face. The ice cold was very comfortable, yet it didn’t blow out the flame in Jiang Yu’e heart in the slightest. Instead, the flame in her heart became more fervent.
She had thought it well, when she met Zhou Yan Bang, she would confess her feelings to him, and how much she admired him. Then she would tell him the sufferings she went through living in the Jiang residence. In between, she would drop a few tears. No men didn’t feel proud of themselves in regards to beauties who admired them greatly. Posing as upright gentlemen, they would not bear to blame the young ladies full of love. Moreover, all men loved to pity the weak. She was born lovely and pitiful, when the time to shed a few tears came, even if Zhou Yan Bang didn’t take note of her before, his heart couldn’t help but soften.
As long as she received Zhou Yan Bang’s heart, as long as she could build a relationship with Zhou Yan Bang……. Jiang Yu’e bit her lip, she would be able to break away from her destiny, the future of marrying a commoner’s child who had no status.
At this moment, she recalled Jiang Li’s words just now. In those words, there’s sarcasm and a fairly discernible contempt, which made Jiang Yu’e’s heart combusted.
So what if it’s the Jiang family’s main branch? Between Jiang Li and Jiang You Yao, only one person was bound to marry Zhou Yan Bang. Regardless whether it was Jiang Li or Jiang You Yao, inevitably, one of them would lose.
If she could enter Ningyuan Marquis’s residence, there would only be one, there would inevitably be one daughter from the main branch who would lose to her. Marrying over to be a concubine, it’s no big deal to look at the main wife’s face. Jiang Yu’e thought, Jiang Li was used to fake being noble and virtuous, Jiang You Yao was made to be arrogant and willful by Ji Shuran. Naturally they did not know how to please a man.
But Jiang Yu’e, she’s confident that she could win over Zhou Yan Bang’s heart.
As she was indulging in her wild imagination, she had already entered the east garden where Yu Xiu Pavilion was.
The water pavilion was pitch-black, not a single lantern was lit inside. It could be seen that no one came here usually. For Zhou Yan Bang to actually mention this place, perhaps he had kept an eye on this place since earlier. Just waiting for today to have a rendezvous with Jiang Li.
Jiang Yu’e smiled softly and raised her foot to walk inside.
Her heart was even more ardent. It’s hard to say whether it was due to her mood, Jiang Yu’e even felt her forehead start to perspire and her breathing became somewhat stagnant, very much wanting something ice cold to stick to her to relieve this heat.
She stopped, exhaled one long breath, and stopped right in front of Yu Xiu Pavilion.
As long as she entered this door, she could transform from a sparrow into a phoenix, getting rid of her possibly mediocre future. This was the reward she strived to acquire herself, nothing to do with the third branch.
Jiang Yu’e opened the door and walked inside.
