Forced Marriage by the Jackal
Chapter 6: Forced Marriage by the Jackal
After returning to the Ji mansion, Ji Yunshu was naturally tired. She changed into clean clothes and shoes, then sat next to the stove and rubbed the space between her eyebrows.
"Miss, you still haven't rested?" Luan 'er was baffled.
Ji Yunshu shook her head and drank another cup of tea, as if waiting for something.
Sure enough, the manservant in the front yard hurriedly ran over and said, "Third Miss, Master is waiting for you in the front hall. He wants you to hurry over."
Ji Yunshu hummed in acknowledgment.
Ji Shuhan originally hated it when she touched those corpses. Today, she openly touched them in front of him. Ji Shuhan, who had always regarded the family's reputation as his life's pride, would skin her alive!
When she arrived at the front hall, her vicious father was already waiting there. When he saw her, the anger in his eyes instantly turned into turbulent waves, and he glared at her fiercely.
He really looked like a jackal!
"Bastard, kneel!"
Ji Shuhan shouted, gnashing his teeth in anger.
Ji Yunshu's temperament had never been one to argue. She looked at everything coldly, so she obediently kneeled.
"My Ji family has been a distinguished family for generations. We have many capable civil and military officials, but we have a little bastard like you. You dare to touch those filthy things, spoil the family's reputation, and throw away our Ji family's face."
Ji Yunshu lowered her head and didn't speak.
What Ji Shuhan hated the most was her plain and indifferent temperament, which made him angry and anxious.
"The Wei family has already come to ask for your hand in marriage several times. I have already agreed to let you marry into the Wei family after the New Year, so that our Ji family won't lose face again."
As the saying goes, a married daughter is like spilled water. If Ji Yunshu married into the Wei mansion, she would be a member of the Wei family. Regardless of whether she interacted with those corpses or not, it had nothing to do with the Ji family. If she was to lose face, it would be the Wei family.
Ji Shuhan must have been planning this for a long time.
But …
Ji Yunshu's body trembled, and she was slightly surprised.
The Wei family's young master had been ill since he was a child. He was an idiot. Everyone in Jinjiang City knew this. Who didn't know?
"Father, you know the situation of the Wei family's young master. If I marry him, won't it be …"
Ji Shuhan slammed the table and interrupted her.
"Since ancient times, it has always been the words of the matchmaker and the will of the parents. This matter has already been decided, and it is not up to you to object. The Wei Clan is also the descendant of a family of generals, an illustrious clan. It is your fortune that they have taken a liking to you."
His words made Ji Yunshu swallow back the words' living like a widow '.
She lifted her almond-shaped eyes and looked slightly stubborn.
"I'm not willing to marry into the Wei family. I'd rather die alone."
"Bastard, is this what a girl should say? Although the Wei family's young master is demented, he is the only son of the family. If you marry him, you will not be able to bear much grievance. Moreover, the Wei family and our Ji family have always had business dealings. How could we let it go to waste in your hands? You have to marry, even if you don't want to. "
"Father …"
Ji Shuhan's face flushed with anger. "Tonight, I'll punish you to kneel here for the whole night. Think carefully. If you dare to disobey me again, I'll end your life and pretend that I never gave birth to a daughter like you."
With a wave of his sleeves, he left.
If this happened in the modern era, it would be a business marriage.
In the end, in her father's eyes, Ji Yunshu was only a chess piece.
No, to be more precise, the four young ladies in the mansion were all chess pieces in his hands.
The eldest daughter, Ji Muqing, was groomed like a Crown Prince's consort. It was said that Ji Shuhan had used a lot of his connections to send Ji Muqing to the capital next year.
The second daughter, Ji Wanxin, had poor health since childhood, but she had been betrothed to the son of the Minister of Rites in the capital. After two years, she would also be sent to the capital.
The fourth daughter, Ji Lingzhi, was still young, only eight years old. However, a few years ago, Ji Shuhan and Old Madame Ji went to the capital to handle some matters and betrothed Ji Lingzhi to someone else. The other party was the nephew of Prince Zhao.
Only she, Ji Yunshu, was betrothed to a demented child.
This gap was really too big!
She wrapped her clothes around her body and let out a cold breath.
Whether it was a marriage or a business marriage, she was extremely unwilling to marry a demented child.
However, Ji Shuhan was a man of his word. Even if he had to tie her up, he would still bring her to the Wei mansion.
