The matter of Jiang Yuan Bai seeking a teacher for Jiang Li was very quickly known to Jiang Li.
The one who told Jiang Li of this matter was not anyone else but the young master from the second branch, Jiang Jing Rui.
Among the Jiang family’s two young masters, Jiang Jing You was slightly older with a good temperant. Others said his study was just so-so and everyday he was chased by Lu shi to study for the imperial examination. Jiang Jing Rui’s temperant was fierce and nobody dared to chase him to take the imperial examination. As long as he didn’t stir up trouble outside, everyone was imnsely happy and relieved already.
Jiang Jing Rui was mocked by Jiang Li last ti and for so days he didn’t step into Fang Fei Garden. If he saw Jiang Li during the day, he would take a detour and walk away. Of course Jiang Li was too lazy to pay attention to him, but today, this Jiang Jing Rui showed up again in Fang Fei Garden’s doorway.
Ming Yue and Qing Feng were embroidering at the doorway and were startled upon seeing Jiang Jing Rui. They greeted: “Second young master.”
Jiang Jing Rui coughed lightly and asked whether Jiang Li was inside. Then he strutted as he walked in.
Inside the room, Jiang Li was right in the middle of reading a book. Tong’er was aware that last ti Jiang Li and Jiang Jing Rui were stuck in a deadlock. So she just stood by the side without saying a word. Bai Xue was in a corner of the room boiling flower tea. She was a casual and carefree person, and seeing that Tong’er didn’t welco him, she also didn’t get up and continued to sit on the small stool and took care of the teapot.
Seeing how nobody in the room paid attention to him, Jiang Jing Rui was sowhat ill at ease and also felt sowhat angry from sha. He set himself across from Jiang Li and saw the book in front of Jiang Li. He said: “What book are you looking at, do you understand just by looking at it?”
This person’s speech was always so loathso, a hedonistic son who deserved to be called spoiled till rotten. Jiang Li lifted her head to glance at him and asked: “What brings you here?”
Seeing that Jiang Li finally took note of him, he didn’t know why but Jiang Jing Rui surprisingly felt very happy. He no longer heeded how both the master and servant girls in this room were disrespectful towards him, and he said straight away: “I ca here to tell you sothing. Eldest uncle is going to invite a teacher for you!”
Invite a teacher? Jiang Li was sowhat surprised.
“I rushed over here as soon as I got this information. I heard that eldest aunt said to eldest uncle that with your aptitude, it’s impossible for you to study in an academy. So just find an ordinary teacher to teach you so superficial knowledge so as not to lose face in front of people and just to keep up appearances.
“That’s too much!” The handkerchief in Tong’er’s hand fell on the ground with a ‘plop’. “What aptitude our young lady has? Our young lady’s aptitude is very good!”
Jiang Jing Rui glanced at Tong’er and shook his head: “Why would eldest aunt seriously look for a person to teach your young miss? It’s simply wishing for her to be a straw bag. I heard eldest uncle handed all these matters to eldest aunt. The person that eldest aunt is looking for will make Jiang Li eat so sufferings.”
Jiang Li didn’t speak, Jiang Jing Rui sighed again and again then, seemingly sowhat embarrassed, he said: “I want to lend a hand but our second branch has never been involved in the main branch’s affairs. If I bring this matter to my mother, my mother will definitely scold to death. I think it’s better for you to look for grandmother. Grandmother, this person, is still very impartial. At that ti, I’ll help you say a few words from the side. If grandmother is the one choosing a teacher, the teacher would not be lacking.”
Jiang Li stared at him. Apparently, after the last ridicule, Jiang Jing Rui had opted to stand by her side. Regardless of whether it was due to the friendship between him and the previous Jiang second miss or because Jiang Jing Rui was originally a sympathetic person, the fact proved that this young man was still not too bad.
Seeing the views dwindle, Li threw an ultimatum at so I had to sit down and edit this one yes or yes (even when my tired wanted to continue putting it off)... still need to apologize to you bc of the delay and missing out on updates, life’s been a bit rough lately (nothing too bad, just overwheld by work and school >..<
aaaand... since I still had so ‘free ti’ on the train ride, I worked a bit on a DFF’s chapter as well, it will still take so ti since chaps are longer and more difficult than in RP but hopefully will co soon^^ if you haven’t read that one yet, what are you waiting for? even if it’s a tad taxing on the mind to tlate it, just doing it for a bit was already able to make my heart puddle in happiness and start to drool, FC is such a cutie! that novel really heals the heart and brings you a smile ah ☺️
