Chapter 14 In-depth understanding
Jiang Zhongming said with emotion and smile: "I have met you, but you have not met me. Three years ago, I went to visit your master and saw you from a distance in the mountains. It was also at that time that your master and I made an appointment for you and me. Mu Wan’s engagement. Mu Wan can have a man like you, and our Jiang family is lucky to have a son-in-law like you."
Jiang Muwan on the side bit her lip and wanted to say something before swallowing it.
The faces of the Jiang family members around him changed slightly. Why did the old man speak so highly of Ye Tianming?
Ye Tianming grinned and said: "The old man has said it before, I am just a common person, please don't hold me too high."
Jiang Zhongming laughed: "How can the disciple that the old gentleman likes be a layman? Mr. Ye, please stop being humble."
Hearing this title, the expressions of the surrounding Jiang family members changed again, Mr. Ye?
Jiang Zhongming looked at Jiang Muwan again and said with a smile: "Muwan, you are lucky to marry Mr. Ye. Let's do this. Today, I will announce to the outside world in the name of the Jiang family. Tomorrow, my granddaughter, Jiang Zhongming, will officially marry Mr. Ye." marry!"
As soon as the words came out, the atmosphere in the room suddenly solidified.
Jiang Muwan bit her lip, lowered her head, and remained silent, her shoulders trembling slightly.
Jiang Haibo twitched the corner of his mouth and said with a bitter smile: "Dad, this is too fast, isn't it? This is the first time for these two children today..."
Jiang Zhongming glared at him and said, "What's so quick about this? I really want Mu Wan and Mr. Ye to get the certificate right away! Just listen to me and get married tomorrow!"
Jiang Haihua, who was standing aside, flashed a few joking smiles in his eyes.
He also hopes that Jiang Muwan can marry Ye Tianming, and the old man probably thinks that Ye Tianming is also somewhat capable.
Little did they know that Ye Tianming was just a kid from a rag-picking family.
Without the help of external forces, Jiang Muwan would never be his opponent, and the Jiang Group would definitely belong to their family.
So he wanted Jiang Muwan to marry Ye Tianming as soon as possible, fearing that if something happened, Jiang Muwan would find a capable man.
That would also be a threat to their family.
There was a sound of footsteps outside the room, and Feng Hui rushed in in a hurry.
She heard that she was getting married tomorrow outside and was so frightened that her face turned pale.
The first thing he did when he came in was to shout to Jiang Zhongming: "Dad! We must not let Mu Wan marry this kid!"
Jiang Zhongming was stunned, "Why?"
Feng Hui pointed at Ye Tianming and cursed: "Because this kid is a rag-picking waste! Do you have the heart to let your granddaughter marry into a rag-picking family?"
Jiang Zhongming's face darkened and he yelled angrily:
"Shut up! What nonsense! What are you talking about? Mr. Ye has an extremely noble status. How dare you insult him for being a garbage picker?"
Feng Hui's face turned pale after being scolded by Jiang Zhongming. She was a little scared, but she still said bravely:
"Dad, if you don't believe me, ask Mu Wan or this brat himself. His family is really a garbage collector!"
Jiang Zhongming looked at Ye Tianming and said apologetically: "Mr. Ye, they are ignorant, don't argue with them."
"It's okay, my family does pick up trash."
Ye Tianming suddenly said calmly.
"what?!"
Mr. Jiang was stunned and didn't believe his ears.
Ye Tianming repeated: "I said, my family is indeed a garbage collector. Please don't marry your daughter to me. It's embarrassing, and she doesn't want to."
Jiang Zhongming was completely stunned at this moment. Is Ye Tianming a garbage collector?
How is this possible? He knew who the strange old man was, so how could it be possible that his disciple was a garbage collector?
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Zhongming suddenly looked calm and said seriously:
"Mr. Ye, even if your family is a garbage collector, I will let Mu Wan marry you. I will still support you."
"Old man, are you crazy? Are you going to marry your granddaughter to a rag-picking waste?" Feng Hui said loudly from the side.
"Shut up! It's not your turn to interrupt what Jiang Zhongming is doing!"
Jiang Zhongming's stern scolding made Feng Hui turn pale and dare not speak.
She and Jiang Haibo were not popular in the first place, and the old man liked Jiang Haihua's family more, if not for Jiang Muwan's outstanding performance.
I'm afraid they have been kicked out long ago.
But Jiang Muwan was silent at this moment. Why did grandpa want her to marry a rag picker?
Am I only worthy of marrying a rag picker?
Jiang Zhongming ignored the others and smiled at Ye Tianming: "Mr. Ye, since we have made an engagement at the beginning, our Jiang family will not regret the engagement. No matter what you do, I will always support you. Mu Wan will start from the day you made the engagement. She is your woman in a moment, and no one can change her!"
Ye Tianming smiled bitterly: "Old man, let's forget it. Your granddaughter and I have no feelings, and your granddaughter is quite resistant to me. Just call off the engagement. It'll be fine."
"Mr. Ye was joking, how could Mu Wan dislike you?"
After saying that, Mr. Jiang stared at Jiang Muwan and said, "Muwan, do you dare to dislike Mr. Ye?"
Jiang Muwan bit her lip. The old man still had the final say in the Jiang family. She did not dare to disobey him and whispered:
"I don't despise him."
"Then are you willing to marry him?"
"I...will..."
There was obvious sadness in Jiang Muwan's voice, but Mr. Jiang didn't seem to understand.
Feng Hui's eyes were on fire. Although she was angry and unwilling, she did not dare to disobey Jiang Zhongming, let alone have any hatred towards Jiang Zhongming.
All the anger was directed at Ye Tianming.
Finally, she took a deep breath, tried to calm herself down and said:
"Dad, although the two children are engaged, it would be too hasty for you to get married directly. The two children are not prepared, and our Jiang family has not prepared anything. I think, otherwise, let the two of them get to know each other first. Time? Think about it, if we get married in such a hasty manner and our family is not fully prepared, wouldn’t it mean that others will see the joke of our Jiang family? "
Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhongming stroked his beard and said, "Yes, marriage is not a trivial matter, especially between Mu Wan and Mr. Ye. Mr. Ye, what do you think? Should we get married now, or get along?"
Before Ye Tianming could reply, Jiang Muwan said: "Grandpa, give us a month so that we can all prepare well."
After saying that, Jiang Muwan directly took Ye Tianming's hand.
Ye Tianming was stunned for a moment. Jiang Muwan's gentle tenderness made him lose consciousness for a moment, and he was a little confused.
Then he felt Jiang Muwan squeeze his hand quietly.
Ye Tianming suddenly understood, glanced at Jiang Muwan, and nodded:
"Okay, just one month then."
A month?
Jiang Muwan also said at his house today that one month was the deadline for the bet.
This time it’s a wedding…
Could it be that Jiang Muwan is inspecting herself?
Jiang Zhongming laughed: "Okay! It's settled! One month later, Mu Wan and Mr. Ye will get married! I will inform the entire Longhai City to prepare the grandest wedding in Longhai for our granddaughter and Mr. Ye!"
The smiles on the faces of Feng Hui and Jiang Haibo were a little bitter.
No one can be happy after finding a son-in-law who is a rag picker!
Feng Hui saw Jiang Muwan taking the initiative to hold Ye Tianming's hand, and almost couldn't help but cursed.
Jiang Muwan was naturally aware of her parents' expressions, but who dared to deny the old man?
She didn't want to get married, but she had no choice.
Jiang Muwan bit her lip, put away the disappointment between her brows, squeezed out a smile and smiled at everyone:
"Ye Tianming has just returned to Longhai, I will take him out for a walk first."
Jiang Zhongming smiled and said: "Okay, you two have just met, you should cultivate your relationship, so go ahead."
Jiang Muwan bit her lip and pulled Ye Tianming away.
After walking out of the villa and getting into the car, Ye Tianming sat in the passenger seat and said puzzledly:
"Where are you taking me?"
Jiang Muwan's pretty face was cold: "I'm in a bad mood, please stop talking to me."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Muwan suddenly stepped on the accelerator. Ye Tianming didn't sit properly, and his head hit the aluminum alloy frame hard.
He grinned in pain and said, "You don't want to play like this, do you? I helped you and saved your grandfather, and you still treat me like this?"
Jiang Muwan's face flashed with guilt for a moment, but was replaced by indifference the next second.
"sorry."
"Then where are you going to take me?" Ye Tianming was quite helpless.
"You'll know when it arrives."
Bentley shuttled through the bustling city and soon came to a place.
Ye Tianming looked at everything in front of him and raised his eyebrows: "Why did you bring me here?"
Jiang Muwan glanced at him and said calmly:
"Don't you want to marry me? I think we need to get to know each other in depth before getting married."
Ye Tianming's expression was quite strange. He glanced at Jiang Muwan, coughed and said:
"Are you sure... you want to learn more about this place?"
