Chapter 86: Today I will send the Matchmaker

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Miss Yan, as a lady, how can you speak so viciously? Everyone in Jingdou knows that the issue between the Second Miss Jiang and the Prince of Huainan was entirely the fault of the Huainan Mansion.”

“And to clarify, the Huainan Mansion did not issue a divorce letter. They divorce peacefully.”

“You… Cao Jun, have you forgotten the instructions of your parents?” she pressed.

“Do you still want to marry me?”

Yan Xin was so angry that her eyes turned red. Cao Jun had always been subservient in front of her. Although she didn’t like it, she enjoyed the feeling.

But now, she wanted nothing more than to kill Cao Jun.

At this, Jiang Peihuan laughed lightly and said, “Miss Yan, since your heart belongs to someone else, perhaps you shouldn’t marry anyone else.”

“You…what are you blabbering about?” Yan Xin stammered.

“Am I? Could it be that Miss Yan doesn’t have a liking for Qing…”

“Shut up!” Yan Xin yelled, her eyes flaming with wrath. She glared at Jiang Peihuan, and a question loomed in Yan Xin’s mind – how did Jiang Peihuan know?

Jiang Peihuan, as if reading her thoughts, mocked, “Miss Yan, the truth always finds a way to reveal itself. So, if you don’t want others to know, don’t do it at all.”

“I see now!”

Cao Jun laughed heartily. “Miss Yan, your coldness towards me now makes sense. It seems you’ve given your heart to someone else. I will inform my parents immediately. I, Cao Jun, cannot afford to marry you.”

Having said this, Cao Jun turned to leave,” Stop right there!”

Hearing the voice behind him, Cao Jun halted. “Is there anything else, Miss Yan?”

“If not me, who else are you planning to marry? Don’t tell me you’re considering Jiang Ruyun?”

Yan Xin’s words were hasty, but upon hearing them, Cao Jun burst into laughter, “Indeed, I am actually planning to marry Miss Jiang Ruyun.”

At this revelation, Yan Xin was stunned, as were Jiang Peihuan and Jiang Ruyun.

“Young Master Cao, a woman’s reputation is a matter of great importance.

Don’t take my sister’s reputation lightly.” Jiang Peihuan warned, her eyes full of caution as she stared at Cao Jun.

Upon hearing Jiang Peihuan’s words, Cao Jun stepped forward, offering a solemn bow to both Jiang Peihuan and Jiang Ruyun.” Eldest Miss, I am not playing around. I am entirely serious and will immediately go home to inform my parents.”

“Tomorrow… No, today, I will send for a matchmaker.”

With that, Cao Jun dashed off.

Jiang Ruyun was left stunned, as was Jiang Peihuan.

Yan Xin, however, was nearly frenzied. She glared at Jiang Ruyun, her voice laced with ridicule, “Jiang Ruyun, you truly have no shame! A lowly widow like you dares to entice…”

“Miss Yan,” Jiang Peihuan interrupted, “I advise you to watch your words. Otherwise, my whip won’t stay idle.”

Stepping up to Yan Xin, Jiang Peihuan uncoiled her long black whip.

“You, you all… Jiang Peihuan, just you wait. This isn’t over.”

After saying this, Yan Xin ran away, leaving Jiang Ruyun and Jian Peihuan alone.

“What’s wrong?”

Upon turning back, Jiang Peihuan noticed Jiang Ruyun standing there, seemingly lost.

Hearing Jiang Peihuan’s voice, she regained her senses, “Elder sister, I know young master Cao.”

“You know him?”

This time, Jian Peihuan was really surprised. Initially, she had thought that what Cao Jun had just said was just a joke. Now that she saw Jiang Ruyun like this, Jiang Peihuan felt that there was a story behind it.

After such a thing happened, the two of them did not continue shopping. After getting on the carriage, Jiang Ruyun looked at Jian Peihuan and said,” Elder Sister, do you still remember that I lived at our maternal grandparents’ house for two years?”

“Yes.”

“When I was living there, my cousins didn’t like to play with me, but a boy from the neighboring house often did.”

“Is this boy from the neighboring house Young Master Cao?”

“Yes.”

Hearing this, Jiang Ruyun nodded.

Jiang Peihuan fell silent.

Afterwards, the two remained quiet until they reached home. Upon entering the mansion, Jiang Ruyun hesitated before taking Jiang Peihuan’s hand, “Elder sister, if… if he truly does come, what should I do?”

As she spoke, nervousness filled Jiang Ruyun’s eyes.

Seeing her look, Jian Peihuan thought for a moment and then then gently asked, “If Young Master Cai sincerely proposes to you, would you consider accepting him?”

“Me?”

Her failure to reject the idea immediately meant tacit consent.

“If that’s the case, then let’s go with the flow.”

“But I’m no longer a maiden. How could I marry him?”

As she said this, a hint of tears welled up in Jiang Ruyun’s eyes. Seeing her in such a state, Jiang Peihuan’s voice softened considerably. “Ruyun, remember this. While appearance matters, it’s the soul that truly counts.”

“Young Master Cao must surely know everything about you. If, knowing all this, he still dares to propose, it signifies he doesn’t care about your past, or perhaps he deems it unimportant. If so, why worry?”

“Come on, let’s go inside.”

“Elder sister, could I spend a little time in your plum garden?”

“Sure.”

Jiang Ruyun accompanied Jiang Peihuan to the plum garden. Upon entering, they found Jiang Sijin sitting there, visibly bored. Hearing voices, the young girl turned around, seeing Jiang Peihuan and Jiang Ruyun who had just come in. Confusion filled Jiang Sijin’s eyes.

“Eldest Sister, Second Sister?”

“Aren’t you busy with your horse all day? How do you find the time to visit me?”

“Dad says that even if I don’t need rest, the horse does. He forbade me from riding for the next two days.”

Jiang Sijin’s eyes were brimming with resentment as she spoke. Upon hearing this, a smile crept into Jiang Peihuan’s eyes.

Turning towards Jiang Sijin, Jiang Peihuan gently advised, “Your Ferghana horse was a precious find for our father. If you exhaust it to death, father might not find a second one for you.”

“Eldest sister?”

Upon seeing the teasing look in Jiang Peihuan’s eyes, Jiang Sijin voiced her displeasure.

“Alright, I’ll stop teasing you. Tell me, what’s the matter?”

“Eldest sister, I want to join the military camp.”

Hearing this, Jian Peihuan’s eyes revealed some surprise. She looked at Jiang Sijin and continued to ask, “First, tell me, why do you want to join the military camp?”

“Second brother is just three months older than me, and he’s already in the military camp.”

“Songbai is a man, and men in our family are supposed to join the military camp from a young age.”

“Alright, second brother is a man, but you, eldest sister, are a woman. You fought on the battlefield at my age, so why can’t I?”

“Elder sister had no choice back then. Now, our family doesn’t need a little girl like you taking such risks.”

Before Jiang Peihuan could even reply, Jiang Ruyun, who was sitting next to them, chimed in first..
