Marriage of the Di Daughter |LK ADAPTATION|

79-80

79: Ostentatious

The madams and young ladies inside the palace hall weren't unfamiliar with the female members of the Jiang family. The Jiang family was considered an outstanding official family in Yanjing. Whichever madam was going to entertain guests in their residence, no one would forget to invite the Jiang family's madam. Aside from Yang-shi, Ji Shuran and Lu-shi often gathered together with these madams. The second branch had no daughter, and in the main branch, there had only been Jiang You Yao in the eight years since Jiang Lisa left. Many had forgotten that there was still a Jiang Lisa. They had seen Jiang You Yao here many times, but the number of times they had seen Jiang Lisa was very few.

The deepest impression they had was of Jiang Lisa's two successive examinations, one being music, and the other being equestrian riding.

Without any noise, but soon amazed the world with a single brilliant feat. That was outsiders' impression of Jiang Lisa. However, those who didn't personally watch the examinations declined to comment, thinking that it was nothing more than rumors. Jiang Lisa didn't seem to be as good as said. Thus, the palace feast became an opportunity to confirm these hearsays.

Everyone stared at the people behind Ji Shuran.

Behind the old madam, there were Ji Shuran and Lu-shi, then Yang-shi, followed by the girls. The girl walking at the very front was Jiang You Yao.

Jiang You Yao had a smile on her face, totally sweet and refined. At a glance, her dress and bearing reflected her good life, a young lady who had never eaten human's suffering. Apart from this, Ji Shuran also put effort into making Jiang You Yao appear upright and steady. It should be known that when a male looked at a female, he looked for beauty and intelligence, which were on the female's own body. But the household of a great family chose their daughter-in-law, apart from these qualities, also depended on the daughter-in-law's temperament and ability. Whether they could manage the peace in the backyard.

In particular, Zhou Yan Bang's attempt to break the marriage arrangement a few days ago had made Ji Shuran very angry. If it were not because Ningyuan Marchioness personally visited to apologize soon after, plus Jiang You Yao truly adored Zhou Yan Bang, Ji Shuran certainly wouldn't have let the Zhou family have such an easy time.

The more outstanding Jiang You Yao was, the more it proved that in this marriage, Jiang You Yao deserved Zhou Yan Bang and was in no way trying to climb up, rather, she was more than enough.

Jiang You Yao was like a blooming flower bud, wavering gently and gracefully as she entered. Her looks were magnificent and somewhat enhanced the beauty of Yu Ming palace hall. Some young ladies whose looks were mediocre looked at Jiang You Yao and couldn't help feeling inferior.

Growing in an enviable official family, having an incomparable appearance, doted by the family, innocent and unaffected, her marriage was just as she wished, her future husband was gentle and handsome, families were well-matched, wasn't this the envy of everybody? Even though most of the young ladies present came from wealthy families, every family had their own problems. Wealthy families' daughters' lives were not as well off as seen on the surface, the hardship was in their hearts.

Jiang You Yao saw everyone's envious gazes and was proud of herself, her steps became much more lively.

Walking behind Jiang You Yao was Jiang Lisa.

Actually, in regard to rankings, Jiang Lisa ought to walk in front of Jiang You Yao. But no one told Jiang Lisa and Jiang You Yao used her own initiative to walk in front. Jiang Lisa also didn't mind these. As she saw it, whoever went first or after was not important.
