Chapter 532: Great-Grandma of the Jiang Family
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The great-grandmother of the Jiang Family was the current empress dowager’s wet nurse. She had only retired from the palace ten years ago and was living in glory. Her ident.i.ty was extraordinary.
The descendants of the Jiang Family all called her Great-Grandma and respected her greatly. Even the Matriarch of the Jiang Family did not dare to trouble her usually.
“Husband, I… I don’t dare to go.” The Eldest Madam of the Jiang Family was a little impatient, but in front of the children’s Great-Grandma, she was no different from a cat.
Even though Great-Grandma was in her seventies, she was still energetic, and her eyes were as sharp as an eagle’s.
The Jiang Family Head comforted her. “1’11 go.”
“There’s no need!” An old voice sounded.
The couple looked up and saw Second Madam Jiang and Matriarch Jiang surrounding an old woman in simple clothes.
The old woman had a walking stick in her hand. On a closer look, there was a finely carved dragon head on the head of the walking stick. Looking again, the gorgeous phoenix tail wrapped around the walking stick, adding to its luxury.
Ordinary people did not dare to use the form of a dragon or phoenix. Only the Emperor, Empress, and their children could use it. Other than the Emperor, everyone else had to report their use.
This walking stick was personally given to her by the Empress Dowager when she left the palace.
This was to show her status.
It was precisely because of this relationship that the Jiang Family could walk upright in the prefecture capital even if their descendants were not especially hardworking.
The Jiang Family Head hurriedly greeted, “Mother, Grandma, I’m unfilial. I’ve troubled you both.”
“Alright, why are you wasting your breath? Don’t you want to arrange the marriage for Jun’er? Let me take a look and see which family is so ungrateful to actually reject my great-granddaughter!”
Jun’er was Second Miss Jiang. Her name was Wu Jing, and her nickname was Junjun.
When Jiang Wujing heard that Great-Grandma had come, she rushed over. “Great-Grandma, Jun’er is not marrying anymore. Don’t make things difficult for the w.a.n.g Family. They didn’t do anything wrong.”
“Great-Grandma won’t make things difficult for them. Great-Grandma is just going to clear your name. At the very least, we have to let them know that our Jun’er is a good child. You’re not someone those girls outside can compare to. It’s their loss that they missed you.”
With that, Great-Grandma Jiang was about to bring the Jiang Family to the w.a.n.g Family.
It was Jiang Wujing who stopped her and said that it was already too late now. It did not make sense to visit after dark.
Hence, Great-Grandma Jiang delayed the matter to the next day.
The next day, after lunch, they went to the w.a.n.g Family.
Fortunately, the two families were not too far apart. Before the w.a.n.g Family children set off for the academy, they were stopped.
Seeing that the Jiang Family’s Great-Grandma had arrived, and it was a large group of people with an aggressive aura, the children ran back to look for Old Madam w.a.n.g.
“Grandma, Grandma, the Jiang Family is looking for trouble with us again!” w.a.n.g Qilang’s voice was very loud, and both the w.a.n.g Family and the Jiang Family heard it. “They were probably unwilling to give us so many things and want to s.n.a.t.c.h them back!”
The Jiang Family:”…”
They were not so petty and unreasonable.
“Mother, look, the w.a.n.g Family’s children really don’t know their manners.” Matriarch Jiang still remembered being rebuked by Old Madam w.a.n.g yesterday and took the opportunity to speak ill of her.
The Jiang Family’s Great-Grandma was calm and composed as she smiled.
She quite liked it. The children could say whatever they wanted. Wasn’t that good?
Wouldn’t it be too tiring to talk so much about etiquette in one’s own house?
This sentence suddenly popped up in the mind of the Jiang Family’s Great-Grandma, reminding her of a child many years ago. She was also very polite in front of others, but she had a lively personality behind her back.
She was exactly the same as the current Jiang Wujing.
As she was thinking, she suddenly saw a person walk out of the w.a.n.g Family’s main house. She was also surrounded by children and walked at the front.
As soon as she saw that person, Great-Grandma Jiang suddenly froze..
