Chapter 1826: Chapter 1762: Just an Officer
ng Xinian’s expression slightly darkened, but he just pressed his thin lips tightly and said nothing.
With Ah Liu ahead, there was no need for him to speak for the ti being.
Moreover, he was very determined in his heart that no matter who spoke, no one could obstruct the wedding date between him and Chiang Xiao.
Ah Liu also frowned slightly and asked, “Grandfather, Xinian and Little have been engaged for a long ti. By the ti of the New Year, Little will be eighteen; their relationship is stable, and they have each other in their hearts. How is it not suitable?”
“Little has not returned to the Jiang Family to recognize her ancestors yet, so for now, let’s hold off on the marriage. Once she is married into the ng Family, she will primarily be a daughter-in-law of the ng Family. Returning to the Jiang Family afterward might feel sowhat like an outsider.”
Old Master Jiang said as he glanced at ng Xinian, “What are you now?”
ng Xinian knew what he was asking, and responded solemnly, “S-Level Great Officer.”
“Oh, just an officer, huh…” Old Master Jiang instinctively replied.
Being an officer before the age of twenty-five is considered promising youth with great prospects for others, definitely regarded as having good conditions. But in Old Master Jiang’s eyes, rely an officer is really nothing.
The Jiang Family has supported countless officers casually. Even girls from the collateral branches have married vice officers, and Chiang Xiao is the first granddaughter of their main line and currently the only descendant. She can’t possibly marry worse than those girls from collateral branches, can she?
Therefore, his words weren’t ant to disparage ng Xinian, but rather a habitual thought that his great-granddaughter, Ah Liu’s biological daughter, should carefully select soone significantly well-matched for marriage.
ng Xinian’s face turned slightly dark.
If he were newly promoted, would Old Master Jiang look down upon him even more?
He suddenly realized that he had a long way ahead.
Not to ntion, when it cos to being in the Jiang Family, he doesn’t want anyone from the Jiang Family to say to Chiang Xiaoxiao, oh, you just married an officer.
He clenched his teeth, sincerely feeling he needs to strive harder.
This is the ti when grandfather and father should listen. They always thought Little was reaching for the ng Family, subconsciously felt Little should bow and scrape a bit.
But now?
Chiang Xiaoxiao suddenly beca a child of the Jiang Family, the most legitimate lineage, and yet his ng Family, in the eyes of the Jiang Family, suddenly counts for nothing.
Now it’s Old Master Jiang’s turn to look down on the ng Family.
In a way, this was indeed sowhat ridiculous.
Jiang Yingqiong had always liked ng Xinian and couldn’t help speaking up for him upon hearing this.
“Xinian is very capable; he didn’t rely on anyone but his own ability to beco an officer. I believe he won’t stop progressing.”
Jiang Yingqiong knew how much Li Hanzhong valued ng Xinian.
One could say ng Xinian was soone Li Hanzhong always wanted to elevate as his right-hand man. It’s just that ng Xinian is still so distance away from that central circle; Li Hanzhong can’t quickly elevate him, ng Xinian has to fight for it himself, take substantial strides forward, and only when the ti is right can he be placed in the most suitable position.
As long as ng Xinian doesn’t fail, continuing on this path, he will definitely be unmatched in the future.
He’s still young now; according to Li Hanzhong, letting him undergo more trials is appropriate.
But unexpectedly, the old master actually seed disdainful of his military position.
Old Master Jiang nodded and said, “I’ve heard Hanzhong ntion before, you’re a good seed, but you’re almost twenty-five now, right? You’re still just an officer; you’re advancing a bit slow.”
