Chapter 950: Mobai and I Have a Certificate of Engagement
To Lady Jiang, Shen Qingdai was a waste. Her son was actually willing to marry a good-for-nothing. Shen Qingdai must have been burning incense for eight lifetimes to be able to get married into the Jiang Family.
“Kneel and thank you?” Feng Tianlan squinted her eyes slightly. She then curled her lips and sneered at Lady Jiang. “Kneeling down and thanking someone only happens in the royal family. Since when did the Jiang Family get to enjoy such honor?” she asked.
“I…”
Feng Tianlan interrupted Lady Jiang, saying, “Perhaps Lady Jiang thinks that you and the Jiang Family are comparable to the royal family? Is that why I should kowtow and show my gratitude?”“Don’t try to confuse the public. I just want you to follow me back to Jiang Manor and get married to Ying’er.” Lady Jiang was wiping the cold sweat off her forehead. She was startled by Feng Tianlan’s words. Words like ‘being comparable to the royal family’ would be enough for one’s entire lineage to be exterminated, even one like the Jiang Family.
The Jiang Family depended on Dongshu Nation. They weren’t as independent as the Bailan Alliance, which was a great alliance that even the royal family had to yield to.
Feng Tianlan raised her eyebrows slightly and sneered at her. “I heard that Jiang Ying has loved Shen Yunya for ten years. I also heard that it was Shen Yunya who ordered you all to propose marriage to the Shen Family. Should Lady Jiang give everyone an explanation as to the reason why this loyal man, Jiang Ying, suddenly shifted his love to another person?”
The conversation between Jiang Ying and Shen Yunya last night had been spread all over Lin’an City. Everyone knew about it and their impression of Jiang Ying as a sentimental and righteous man had crumbled.
Lady Jiang looked at Feng Tianlan with disdain. “Ya’er is so great. Any man would naturally like her. What’s wrong with that? The fact that he likes Ya’er doesn’t stop him from marrying you. After all, you are already engaged to Ying’er.”
What was there to explain? She just wanted Shen Qingdai to get married into the Jiang Family and continue their ancestral line to make up for the damage she had done to Ying’er.
“Engaged?” Feng Tianlan sneered. “May I ask you where the certificate of engagement is?”“The certificate is at home. How can I possibly bring it with me? Besides, everyone in Lin’an City knows about the engagement between the Jiang Family and the Shen Family. What is the need for a certificate of engagement?” She rushed out and had forgotten to bring the certificate with her.
Feng Tianlan looked at Lady Jiang’s face. It was as fat as a large bowl. Tianlan then curled her lips coldly and said, “Since Lady Jiang doesn’t have the certificate, then you must be taking me away forcefully in broad daylight.”
“You are engaged to Ying’er. Since you didn’t abide by the certificate of engagement, I can only use force.” Lady Jiang then sneered, “If it wasn’t Ying’er’s persistence before, do you think the Jiang Family would want a good-for-nothing like you who didn’t play your part as a wife? Now that we have agreed to this matter, you should be burning incense and praying.”
She had been against the idea of Ying’er sticking with Shen Qingdai when he was little. She was just a good-for-nothing. There was nothing good about her besides her good looks. Fortunately, Ying’er was enlightened afterward and grew to like Ya’er instead. She thought that he would marry a genius. In the end, her daughter-in-law-to-be became the Crown Prince’s Common Consort because of that b*tch, Shen Qingdai.
Therefore, how could she not hate Shen Qingdai to the core?
Feng Tianlan immediately took out a certificate of engagement from the Pill Scroll Realm. “About a year ago, I was engaged to Mobai. Here is the certificate of engagement as evidence. It happened before the Jiang Family proposed marriage to the Shen Family. So, who is taking who away forcefully?”
Lady Jiang stared at the words ‘certificate of engagement’ that were written in large letters. Feng Tianlan and Si Mobai’s names were on it. Besides, Guiyuan Continent’s time zone was used. However, it was indeed about a year ago. It was definitely not written recently. This made her speechless.
“It must be of the parents’ order and the matchmaker’s words. Your certificate doesn’t have any kin’s approval on it. It is invalid.” Lady Jiang seemed to have found a reason to ignore it. “Therefore, the certificate of engagement between you and Ying’er is still effective. You are Ying’er’s fiancée.”
