Chapter 65: Chapter 65: Why Don’t Big Brother Marry Her First?
Ji Hongyan, standing off to the side, clearly detected the disdain in the old Madam Jun’s tone and her aversion towards her. Although she felt very annoyed, she had no choice but to respond with a forced smile.
After all, they did have the right to look down upon her, for her family, the Ji family, was nothing compared to the Jun family.
If it weren’t for Jun Wuyang having some use for her, she would never have had the chance to step through the doors of the Jun family and meet all its elders.
That the old Madam Jun even remembered her name was already giving her much face.
Jun Moyan, who had remained expressionless, finally frowned.
He had known early on why Ji Hongyan had appeared again at the family banquet tonight.
At the last family banquet, Ji Hongyan had appeared just the same, although the old Madam Jun did not make it explicit at the time.
But Jun Moyan had guessed even then what it would mean for a woman from a second-rate family to appear in the Jun household—it would lead to the situation at hand today.
Jun Wuyang had really gone to great lengths and was becoming increasingly brazen,
Even going as far as to blatantly collude with the old Madam Jun to plant a spy by his side.
Making no attempt to hide, they brazenly walked in together, all to provoke him, to irritate him.
It was just that in trying to plant a spy by his side, Jun Wuyang did not bother to find someone more appealing.
To think this kind of woman would want to marry him, Jun Moyan?
The easy life of Wu Garden was not for just anyone to enjoy.
"Moyan’s marriage is not something Grandma needs to worry about, Moyan has his own choice," Jun Moyan said.
"Marriage is a matter that elders should decide, could it be that your choice would be better than what this old woman can choose?" the old Madam Jun said defiantly, forcing Jun Moyan to agree.
"Mom, haven’t we Jun family always valued matching social status the most? Even if you’re finding a wife for Moyan, at least find someone of a matching status," said Jun Moyan’s father, Jun Qing.
When he said this, he completely disregarded Ji Hongyan’s face turning alternately red and pale at his side.
"A matching status?" the old Madam Jun snorted coldly: "When you married that woman, did you consider a matching status?"
As soon as the old Madam Jun spoke, the expressions of everyone present changed slightly.
The hand that Jun Moyan had placed on his leg tensed up gradually, and the light in his eyes turned frosty, as if the temperature around him dropped as well.
The elderly Master Jun, sitting closest to Jun Moyan, noticed the change in his emotions and could not help speaking out:
"The children are all grown up, and what era are we in? Arranged marriages no longer exist, let them choose for themselves."
"What, does what this old woman says not matter anymore? Or do you think I would harm him?"
"..." Master Jun was at a loss for words, unable to reply.
Jun Moyan concealed the fierceness in his eyes and said with a cold voice: "There is already a girl whom Moyan likes, Grandma, I appreciate your kindness."
As he spoke, he turned to a maid nearby: "Please show this lady out."
The maid was not from the Jun family and thus bore no ill will towards Jun Moyan; on the contrary, she actually rather liked him.
There was no helping it; which girl wouldn’t like a man who was not only handsome but also wealthy and powerful?
Approaching Ji Hongyan, the maid made a gesture:
"Miss Ji, please."
At that moment, Ji Hongyan could no longer maintain the fake smile on her face and looked at Jun Wuyang anxiously.
Receiving Ji Hongyan’s plea for help, Jun Wuyang spoke up on her behalf:
"Miss Ji is here at Grandma’s invitation. By doing this, you’re showing great disrespect to Grandma."
"My eldest brother and second brother aren’t married yet; even if it’s my turn, I see that Miss Ji just walked in with eldest brother and they are even more suited—why doesn’t he consider it?" Jun Moyan said indifferently in rebuttal.
