Chapter 637 - 635 Agreed
Ye Xinyan looked surprised at Song Ping’s Household Member, who was still standing with her eyes downcast. Only after a moment did she remember the current situation. There was no trace of coy shyness, only full-hearted irritation.
Damn, being an ancient woman really wasn’t easy. Her true nature and the expected behavior of a woman of ancient times didn’t match at all.
Jiang Yifan obviously knew what Song Ping’s Household Member was hinting at, and also felt awkward. Fortunately, he still had enough composure to maintain a semblance of calm and self-possession.
"That..." Jiang Yifan couldn’t help but adopt Ye Xinyan’s style of speaking, and continued, "I am going out of town tomorrow to pick up my mother. I had mentioned in a letter home that you, I and Sixth Master are going into business together, and I think my mother will be happy to hear that we can still be together."
Ye Xinyan didn’t know what he was trying to say, so she just glanced at the dish of green plums in front of her, quietly waiting for him to continue.
Song Ping’s Household Member was also anxious. Lord Jiang had always been composed and calm when speaking and acting, so what was wrong with him today? He had been inside for a while now and still hadn’t gotten to the point. How long was he going to stutter here?
Jiang Yifan naturally knew that Ye Xinyan would not engage in a back-and-forth with him, "What I mean is, since New Year’s is approaching, do you think we should have my mother commission a matchmaker to propose marriage before the New Year so we can set the matter, or should we talk about it after the New Year?"
Song Ping’s Household Member had been waiting eagerly for a long time, only to be met with this question from Jiang Yifan. She almost choked on her breath and had to force it back down her throat. Were these words appropriate for young men and women to say? Moreover, with only a few days left until the New Year, would there be enough time?
