When Jiang Xi’s three ex-fiancés heard that Jiang Xi had been arranged for marriage by the emperor, they trembled in fear and even prepared generous gifts for the Jiang family to apologize.
When Zhao Ruifeng came over, he saw the three families kneeling in front of the Jiang family’s gate and asking for forgiveness. One of them had run away, and his elder brother came to apologize on his behalf. There were three ex-fiancés, and there was also a new fiancé here. Was this the legendary Asura arena? Zhao Ruifeng looked at the scene in front of him and fell into deep thought. Why did he feel that Jiang Xi’s lineup was more powerful than his? Should Jiang Xi or he be afraid?
There was no one in the Jiang family, so Zhao Ruifeng could not enter the courtyard, and he could only stare at the ex-fiancés at the door.
“You’re also here to ask for forgiveness? Why did you break off the engagement?” The three men knelt together and talked to each other. One of them even asked Zhao Ruifeng. Zhao Ruifeng’s eyelids twitched. This was a disastrous scene!
“Don’t be fooled by his powerful appearance. He still broke off the engagement with Jiang Xi, hmph! It’s strange. Before my younger brother was engaged, he didn’t have any girl by his side. However, after he was engaged to Jiang Xi, he had girls by his side one after another, and they were all more beautiful than the previous one. Who could he control himself?” The big brother who came to apologize in his younger brother’s place nagged.
Yang Kun was one of the three, and he felt a little regretful. “Right? Jiang Xi and I were childhood sweethearts and grew up together. It’s all that Vixen’s fault for seducing my soul. I still have Jiang Xi in my heart. I was deceived and made a mistake by accident!” He looked as if it was not his fault, but rather, someone else’s for seducing him.
Du Lin listened expressionlessly. He no longer had any male functions, so how could he dare to have any other thoughts? Zhao Ruifeng ignored the three of them. After asking about Jiang Xi’s whereabouts, he went directly to the ancestral hall of the Happy Village. At this time, the ancestral hall was full of people inside and outside. Everyone had stopped doing farm work and came to the ancestral hall to watch the fun.
The ancestral hall of the Happy Village was not open easily, but Jiang Xi was invited in. A small wooden chair was placed in the center of the ancestral hall, and Jiang Xi was sitting on it. Around her were old men with crutches. All of them looked dignified, and an imperial edict was placed above the ancestral hall.
“Jiang Xi of the Jiang family, you’re the first person in our village to be betrothed by the Emperor. This is an honor for the entire village. Today, the ancestral hall’s door is opened and you are allowed to enter the ancestral hall to pay your respects to your ancestors. In the future, when you enter Jing City, don’t forget that you came from Happy Village.” The old village chief said to Jiang Xi with a serious look.
Jiang Xi’s second uncle, Jiang Guoan also came in shamelessly. There were other representatives of the Jiang family, including Jiang Si. At this time, their faces were full of joy, and it would not be an exaggeration to describe them as smiling. Now that Jiang Xi had been appointed to marry Zhao Ruifeng and become the daughter-in-law of the Zhao family, would Jiang Si have no backing when he attended the Imperial examinations in the future? What kind of connections did he need? In the future, it would be others who would please him! Jiang Si was so happy that he almost jumped up. Jiang Xi was indeed a good sister. His love for her had not been in vain!
“Don’t worry, granduncles. Jiang Xi is a girl of the Happy Village, and that will never change. No matter what her status is in the future, she will naturally repay the Happy Village in the future. Even if I become an official in the future, I will also work for the well-being of the Happy Village.” Jiang Si was the first to stand up.
“The Jiang family will never forget our ancestors.” Jiang Guoan looked calm. He felt that his position as the village chief was in the bag. Only God knew how pleasing Jiang Xi was to his eyes!
The old men nodded as if they were very satisfied with Jiang Si and Jiang Guoan’s words. Of course, they also understood the hidden meaning of these two people, and then they asked, “What about Jiang Xi? Do you have any requests?”
Jiang Si quickly gave Jiang Xi a look and said, “My sister doesn’t know how to speak properly, but she knows what she’s doing, right, Jiang Xi? When you get married in the future, I’ll go to Jing City to look for you. I won’t let anyone bully you.”
“My fiancé is already the general of the country. Why would I look for you if I’m being bullied?” Jiang Xi raised her eyes and glanced at Jiang Si. Besides, why should she rely on others for a small matter?
After criticizing Jiang Si, Jiang Xi straightened her back slightly, looked at the old men in front of her, and said,”My requests are: first, the Jiang family can’t rely on my identity to do any convenience, and they have to rely on themselves. Second, I want to be the village chief!
