Chapter 1700: Where to Get Married
Translator: Lonelytree
Jiang Zhennan was speechless. So, on the night of the wedding, should they just leave the bridal chamber and hurry on their way?
Grandpa, this move is really ruthless!
So, this was his grandfather’s real punishment?!
Jiang Zhennan wanted to cry but had no tears!
However, his grandfather’s reason was good. He could not find a reason to refute it.
What should he do?
Jiang Zhennan was really anxious.
He looked at Lin Deshan pleadingly, but Lin Deshan ignored him.
Then, he looked at Doctor Zhang, who was usually easier to talk to.
Doctor Zhang looked at Jiang Zhennan’s expression and felt sorry for him. However, in the past half a year, he had given the girl so much grievance, causing the girl to receive so many strange looks from outsiders. So many people laughed at her behind her back. Did he really think that it would be so easy?
Hmph, how could that be?
Therefore, he turned a blind eye to Jiang Zhennan!s pleading gaze.
Heh, it wasn’t that he wasn’t kind, but it was a real punishment for him.
He wanted to let him know that the girl had people backing her up.
Doctor Zhang also turned a blind eye to his plea for help. Then, he turned his pleading gaze to Lin Yuelan.
In the end, Lin Yuelan spread her hands and said,” Don’t look at me. I’ll listen
to Grandpa and the rest.”
Then, she winked at Jiang Zhennan, hinting to him that now was not the time to plead for mercy. They would wait until her grandfather and the others had calmed down.
When Jiang Zhennan received the hint, he could only nod in tacit understanding.
Didn’t the two elders see their eye contact?
Of course, they saw it.
It was just that the young couple had such a tacit understanding that it was really not good for the elderly to interrupt
Therefore, they also pretended not to see it.
Since the wedding venue had been decided, everything related to the wedding had to be put on the agenda.
Lin Deshan said,” Nan ‘er, since you are the one getting married, then we must go to the Defender General’s Estate to give the betrothal gifts. However, which elder in your residence will receive them?”
That was a problem.
Jiang Zhennan was born in the Jiang family, but now the Jiang family…His biological mother had passed away, and his biological father had been demoted to a commoner. Jiang Yunfeng was paralyzed in bed. He could neither walk nor speak. As for Jiang Zhennan’s marriage, he had nothing to do with it.
However, in terms of marriage, it still required the elders to come forward and handle it.
Jiang Zhennan thought for a moment and said,” Grandfather, I will ask Duke
Guo to be my elder. I’ll ask him to help me with my marriage.”
He had a good relationship with Guo Bing, so naturally, he had a good relationship with the Guo family.
Not to mention that the Jiang family no longer had any direct relatives or elders who could preside over his marriage. Even if there were, he was annoyed and disgusted by those people. How could he let them interfere in his marriage?
Lin Deshan thought of Duke Guo, whom he had met in the capital. He felt that this easy-going and honest elder was indeed not bad. Moreover, he had heard that the Guo family did not have those messy and dirty things in the backyard. Everyone in the family was harmonious.
Even though Duke Guo’s manor had several sons and daughters, they were all born from his first wife. He also did not have any concubines. This made the elders in the manor well-educated and well-mannered. They were indeed the most suitable to manage Jiang Zhennan’s marriage.
However…
Lin Deshan asked worriedly,” Duke Guo, is he willing?”
After all, Jiang Zhennan had the reputation of a jinx. Anyone who got close to him would be unlucky. Moreover, he would be personally arranging his marriage.
However, thinking about it, it seemed that Jiang Zhennan was close to the Guo family.
It shouldn’t be a problem.
Jiang Zhennan nodded and said,” Duke Guo is a kind and upright person. He will help.”
Hearing this, Lin Deshan felt relieved. Then, he said,” In that case, we’ll have to prepare to go to the capital.”
First, he had to make arrangements. The journey would be from Taoyuan Village to Beijing. Even though Lin Yuelan had hired someone to repair a road last year, it was still more than ten days by carriage.
There were still three months before their wedding, but time passed quickly. Jiang Zhennan and Lin Yuelan nodded.” Yes, Grandpa!’
They had already stayed in Taoyuan Village for two years. It was time to go to the capital again.
Moreover, between them, one was the Defender General, and the other was the Princess of Guguo. The union of the two was a big matter and needed the blessing of the world.
In the royal study, Yuwen Longyan was reviewing the memorial when Eunuch Zhang came in to report,” Your Majesty, His Highness the Crown Prince has requested an audience outside the royal study!”
Yuwen Longyan raised his head and said in surprise,” Oh, the Crown Prince is here.. Then let him in!”
