She Is From The Countryside-Chapter 524

?

524 ask her about her ring

“yan, you’re here. why are you alone? where’s fifth brother?” he asked.

the next morning, the old madam sent someone to bamboo garden to pass on a message. she asked shi yan and jiang che to have lunch together at the main building.

shi yan was the only one who came over at lunch time.

The other members of the Jiang family should be busy as well. When Shi Yan arrived, only the old Madam and Jiang Rui were in the dining room.

” he has some work to deal with. he’ll be having lunch at bamboo garden, so he won’t be coming. ”

jiang rui teased,”then fifth uncle will have to eat alone?” How pitiful.”

” you little girl, ” the old lady scolded, ” you even dare to laugh at your fifth uncle. you have no manners! ”

jiang rui stuck out her tongue playfully, then smiled and asked shi yan to sit down.

of course, the three of them were not the only ones having lunch. f𝘳𝚎𝐞we𝐛𝑛𝐨𝘃e𝘭.co𝘮

Jiang Muchen and Jiang Heng entered a few steps behind Shi Yan.

Jiang Muchen was too busy. He would always rush back for a meal during the new year and then go back to work again. He only had time after a few days and only returned last night.

when he returned, jiang rui’s barbeque party had already ended.

After a simple greeting, Jiang Muchen and Jiang Heng sat down.

The old lady chided Jiang Muchen for a while, basically saying that he was finally willing to come back.

After scolding Jiang Muchen, she started to scold Jiang Heng, asking why he was so content to stay at home and not fool around outside.

Jiang Muchen was worried that he would be urged to get married again, so he did not dare to respond to the old lady’s words. When the old lady scolded him, he just quietly accepted it. Jiang Heng was different. He had not reached the age to be urged to get married.

“grandmother, look at what you’re saying. if you don’t know, you’ll think that i’m out of line. i’ve only been out for two or three days since the holidays started. please don’t ruin my image in front of sister yan.”

As Jiang Heng spoke, he smiled at Shi Yan.

Shi Yan replied with a smile.

seeing that they were getting along so well, the old lady was very pleased. she scolded with a smile, ” “you little rascal, your sister yan can’t be bothered with you.”

“The others are not at home. It’s just us. There’s no need to wait. Let’s start eating.”

the old lady asked shi yan to eat.

There weren’t many people, but the meal was still very lively.

After the meal, the few of them went to the main hall downstairs to have after-meal refreshments.

Her eyes fell on the ring Shi Yan was wearing several times. The old lady finally couldn’t help but say, ” “Yan, I’ve been meaning to ask you this since yesterday. Did Xuanji give you the ring?”

the others followed his gaze.

Among them, Jiang Rui was the most interested.

In fact, she had wanted to ask this question for a long time. Yesterday, she had planned to ask at night when she thought that Shi Yan had just returned. However, she had drunk a little too much that night and had forgotten.

Shi Yan raised her hand and looked at the ring. She smiled and nodded.”yes, he gave it to me,”

“then, is yingluo a gift for you young people when you’re dating, or does yingluo represent something else?”

Nowadays, there were many young couples who gave rings to each other when they were in love. It might not have a special meaning. This old lady still knew.

“This is a proposal ring.” shi yan said honestly.

propose?!

Even Jiang Heng and Jiang Muchen couldn’t remain calm, let alone the old lady and Jiang Rui.

“yan, my fifth uncle proposed to you?” The last word almost broke her voice, showing how excited Jiang Rui was. 𝑓𝙧𝘦𝘦we𝘣𝙣𝘰𝘃𝗲l.com

“Yes.”

“when did you ask? how did you get it?”

jiang rui was just too excited and curious. she didn’t really want shi yan to tell her the whole story. before shi yan could answer, she said excitedly,”he actually did such a big thing in silence. as expected of fifth uncle!”

After a while, Jiang Muchen was the first to regain his composure.”Isn’t it a little too fast?”

In the past, he would not have interrupted at this time.

the main thing was that this was the private matter of fifth lord, whom he respected very much.

however, he had been in frequent contact with su yunzhi recently, and he felt that he had finally seen a ray of light after waiting for so many years.

if he and su yunzhi really got together, then he would be shi yan’s uncle and could be considered half an elder to her. he couldn’t help but treat shi yan as a junior of his family.

seeing shi yan look over, jiang muchen realized that he had crossed the line. but the words had already been said and could not be taken back, so he might as well say everything he wanted to say in one breath.

“you’ve only been together for a short while, and you’re already considering marriage. don’t you think it’s a little too soon? Marriage and love were different. Love was a matter between two people, while marriage was a matter between two families. once you’re married, you’ll have to face a lot of problems. i won’t talk about fifth lord, but you’re the one who’s dealing with the jiang family in the capital. you can’t hide from them even if you want to.”

of course, I’m not trying to persuade you to only date and not consider marriage. Dating without marriage as the goal is just being a hooligan. I just don’t want you to be trapped in marriage too early.

In the Jiang family, Jiang Muchen was not the most talkative person. Most of the time, he was very quiet and had never meddled in anyone’s business.

this was too unlike him.

jiang rui and jiang heng looked at him in shock. the old lady was also bewildered.

Weiqi and Yan had only met a few times, so they weren’t familiar with each other. It didn’t matter to him if he asked about Yan’s personal life.

Hmph! He hadn’t even started dating that girl from the SU family yet, but he was already acting like an elder in front of Yan! If you have the ability, then marry her!

“I know.” shi yan said.

since the old lady could tell why jiang muchen had said these words to her, shi yan could naturally tell as well.

she did not brush away jiang muchen’s good intentions.

“I’ve thought about all of this, don’t worry, fourth uncle Jiang,” he said with a smile.

“In addition, with fifth Lord Jiang here, I don’t need to deal with the Jiang clan in the capital. Fifth Lord Jiang will handle it himself. I only need to focus on my studies and complete them. I don’t need to think about anything else.”

In fact, there had been more than one group of people from the Jiang family in the capital who had come to find her. She didn’t need the fifth Lord to help her; she could deal with them herself.

this was not enough to be an obstacle to their marriage.

“but i’m still very grateful that fourth uncle jiang told me this.”

“As long as you don’t blame me for overstepping my boundaries,”

shi yan’s expression was serious and didn’t seem to be fake. jiang muchen recalled that su yunzhi had mentioned to him what kind of person shi yan was and didn’t say anything more.

“since you’ve already thought it through, i won’t meddle.”

Jiang Rui looked at Shi Yan, then at Jiang Muchen, still a little confused.

but that wasn’t important. what was important was that his fifth uncle proposed to yan!

“yan, since your fifth uncle proposed to you, shouldn’t you guys consider holding an engagement ceremony?”

“There should be.”

“but these are all arranged by your fifth uncle. i won’t interfere,” shi yan said with a smile.

what she meant was that she didn’t know the specific situation either.

jiang rui understood.

” alright, fifth uncle has always been reliable. you can just wait to be the bride. ”

the matter came to an end. when they were about to leave the main building, the old lady asked jiang muchen to speak to her alone.

“Sister, grandmother didn’t keep fourth uncle to teach him a lesson, right?”

The three of them walked out of the main building. Jiang Heng looked back again and again, worried.

“i won’t, don’t worry,”

after a pause, jiang rui continued. ” but to be honest, fourth uncle was acting a little weird just now. it’s not like him at all. ”

“Yan, fourth uncle doesn’t have any bad intentions. He probably likes you too much and really treats you as a junior, that’s why he said those things. He’s never meddled in other people’s business before, not to mention that this is a private matter between you and fifth uncle. Fourth uncle always has a sense of propriety and would never take the initiative to provoke fifth uncle.”

Shi Yan was helpless. Did she look so difficult to talk to?

“Don’t worry, I’m not angry at fourth uncle Jiang. on the contrary, i’m very happy that he can tell me this.”

this meant that there must have been some progress between her aunt and jiang muchen.

“what?” jiang rui and jiang heng didn’t quite understand what she meant.

shi yan didn’t intend to say more. she smiled.”alright, don’t think too much. Rui ‘er, you still owe me a word of congratulations.”

“Oh right, I haven’t congratulated you yet. Yan, congratulations to you and your fifth uncle!”

“thank you,” he said.
