Chapter 329 Marriage 1



Chapter 329 Marriage 1

That evening, just after Wang Jinyi finished her debate with her mother, a message came through the door saying that her great-aunt had arrived with her aunt and cousin.

Hmm? The host came to visit his guest, which made him seem a little unworldly! Wang Jinyi felt a little ashamed and a little rude.

I have been so busy these days that I neglected to thank the owner of the yard.

However, my mother seemed to have already gone to express her gratitude, and I also heard her mention that my cousin Wang Yuwen originally lived in this courtyard.

As my mother stood up to greet them, my great-aunt looked very kind, while my aunt and cousin looked at me nervously.

Wang Jinyi looked back at her mother in confusion. Her great-aunt took Wang Jinyi's hand and said:

"Jinyi, we came here today to see the stars in the night sky where the storybook is written, and secondly, we heard that you are doing something big. We don't understand, but we want to hear what you have to say."

My cousin agreed softly, "My sister is very smart."

After she finished speaking, she lowered her head, and when she felt someone was looking at her, she raised her head slightly, smiled gently in response, and turned her head slightly to the side. This was the standard gentle and virtuous girl of this era.

Hey! Wang Jinyi thought to herself, I will never become like this. With the deep-rooted consciousness of female independence from my previous life, I will never just obey again!

I secretly admonished myself to have independent thoughts and consciousness like in my previous life, and never become perfect in the eyes of others!

I also heard my aunt casually mention the matter of marriage, "...Yuwen has an elder brother who is not married yet..."

Wang Jinyi didn't take it seriously at first out of politeness, but later she noticed that her mother kept looking at her, so she took it to heart.

But thinking that it had nothing to do with him, he calmly pretended to be humble and obedient, but in fact his spiritual consciousness had already run far away.

Speaking of marriage, it seemed that in the previous life, during the sophomore vacation, the two wanted to travel to all the famous mountains in the country.

At that time, Chen Zhiyuan excitedly called me and told me the strategy:

"We are going to visit the ten famous mountains this time. I plan to go to Laojun Mountain first. It is said to be a paradise on earth..."

Before Chen Zhiyuan finished speaking, Wang Jinyi asked:

"Where are you?"

"Luoyang, Henan."

"Okay, let's go there!"

"You agreed without even asking?"

"You must have a plan, I believe you!"

"Yes! Thank you, I have selfish motives."

"Oh?"

"Laojun Mountain is where the founder of Taoism, Laozi, cultivated and attained enlightenment. I hope we can also achieve enlightenment."

Wang Jinyi now feels a little sad when she thinks of what Chen Zhiyuan said at that time about achieving the right result through cultivation. She hopes that after two lifetimes of hard work, she can achieve the right result!

Seeing her daughter not working but showing no concern for others, the mother knew that the child had already thought of something else. She coughed deliberately to remind her daughter to be polite to guests.

Wang Jinyi straightened his expression, put on a proper smile, looked at his great-aunt and said:

"Yuwen's elder brother is a rare good boy in the Beining Wang family..."

Wang Jinyi finally understood what was going on. Was this a matchmaking? For whom? Just as she was still confused, she heard her great-grandmother say:

"We all like Jinyi. We are all from the same clan, but not direct relatives..."

Wang Jinyi almost stood up in shock, his eyes wide open, thinking: What the hell? The closer the blood and genetic relationship, the more likely it is to give birth to a fool!

I really want to loudly teach these people some common sense!

Even if we take a step back and say that they don't give birth to a fool, even if they give birth to a not-so-smart child, it would be enough to make the parents angry. Why are they doing this to themselves?! Stab themselves in the back? What's the point? Is it fun?!

Wang Jinyi couldn't help but shudder.

The mother saw it and called out with concern: "Jin'er, what's wrong?!"

Wang Jinyi looked at her mother for help, wanting to ask, why do you want to arrange a marriage for me? But it was inconvenient to ask directly at this time, so she had to continue to remain silent.

As a result, in the eyes of some people, Wang Jinyi was seen as an easy-to-manipulate and obedient child.

The mother was hesitant and told the truth: "You are joking. Marriage is a matter of fate, and it depends on the decision of the head of the family. Regardless of whether it is fate or not, I can't give you any answer at this moment."

The great-grandmother patted Wang Jinyi's hand affectionately, startling the silent child.

Wang Jinyi didn't care about his attitude anymore and asked directly, "Does my great-aunt know how old I am?"

The old lady was stunned for a moment, then she understood that the child was asking how old her grandson was.

"Jinyi will be ten years old in the spring. My eldest grandson is fourteen this year. You have met him in the main hall..."

"what?!"

Wang Jinyi screamed in her heart, what? Going on a blind date at the age of ten, what is this? I have been targeted so early? What should I do? You know, this is an era where parents and matchmakers have their say!

Wang Jinyi finally became nervous.

My great-aunt was still saying, "Brother Yuwen's name is Wenshu. You two are a perfect match in terms of appearance and knowledge. You are a smart girl. If you can stay in our family, you will know our background and will not be wronged..."

Wang Jinyi really couldn't bear to listen to it anymore. She wanted to cut the Gordian knot and refuse outright, but she was unsure whether it would affect the relationships among the clansmen, so she was in a dilemma.

Mr. Wu at the door sent a message:

"The head of the Xunyang Wang family is here to meet the clan members in the front yard. Let the young lady go to the front yard to greet him tomorrow morning."

My grandfather is here! My relatives are here! My matchmaker is here. It seems like a real debate is waiting for me.

Wang Jinyi saw that her mother's attitude was too tactful and her great-aunt couldn't understand her family's attitude, so she had to take action herself.

He bowed slightly and said with a smile, "Thank you for your concern, Grandmother. I am still young and my mind is focused on my small business. I can't take care of other things for the time being."

The women of the Beining Wang family seemed to be surprised by Wang Jinyi's polite response, and the room fell silent.

In order to ease the embarrassment, the mother began to praise:

"I heard that Wang Wenshu is a handsome and well-read child. Did he take the imperial examination this year?"

"Oh, I took part in the provincial examination this year."

"Jin'er's brother also took part in the provincial exam." The mother quickly followed this line of conversation and soon began to praise each other's family education and family tradition...

Finally it came to an end, and Wang Jinyi felt that the meaningless politeness was too tiring.

Being bored, my cousin greeted Wang Jinyi softly:

"Cousin, I have a request..."

"Cousin, you can say whatever you want. We are all members of the Wang family, so why should we be polite?"

"Sister, can you sign my book in your spare time?"

Wang Jinyi originally thought that her cousin had some special requests, so she waited with tolerance, but it turned out that she was another book fan!

Wang Yuwen looked back and saw a little maid coming towards her carrying a pile of books. Wang Jinyi thought to herself, what a burden to happiness!

Finally having a reason to escape, he said goodbye to the elders and took the little sister to the study.
