Chapter 80.1: Perfection to the Point of Unreal, Bestowing a Marriage

After hearing Sun Yi Jia addressing her, Jing Wan immediately realized who this person was.

And the first impression Ruan Fang Fei gave Jing Wan was: ‘As expected of a girl that was equally as famous as big sister Jia, like a fresh water lotus, gentle and elegant.’

Ruan Fang Fei also had a peach blossom spray in her hand, walking over neither slowly and quickly, carrying a quiet smile on her face. Under the tenderly beautiful peach blossoms, she didn’t lose her luster, further manifesting her uniqueness, making the surrounding seemingly all lose color. The moment you notice her, it’ll be very difficult to see the beauty in anything else again. Truly someone that’s more delicate than flowers, and more radiant than flowers. If Sun Yi Jia didn’t have bandages wrapped on her face, and wasn’t dressed very casually, perhaps she might’ve been able to share the limelight with her.

However, from here on out, no longer will anyone put the two together in comparison. Regardless of how talented Sun Yi Jia was herself, when others think of her, their first thought will always be that ruined face of hers, a precious treasure turned into rubble, while the other was still a treasure. When mentioning the two of them again, they’ll probably all use the word ‘once’. Someone that was a bit more normal would perhaps lament at Sun Yi Jia’s encounter, but even more will be mocking and cheering at her misfortune.

Because these two were the most outstanding among the noble daughters, all say same poles repel each other, in addition to their family standing in different political factions, perhaps they themselves didn’t have the heart to compare, but hearing others often mentioning, they would still inevitably have that bit of care.

Normally, they would rarely meet. And now, encountering under such circumstances, should it be said to be fate, or the heavens toying with people?

Ruan Fang Fei was very calm. Nothing strange could be seen from her face, seemingly as if she was still facing that fully intact Sun Yi Jia. This kind of person was either truly very kind, or just knew how to act very well, although Jing Wan couldn’t tell which side she belonged to.

Head Cabinet Minister’s youngest di daughter, when she was born, her older brothers and sisters were already all grown up, so naturally they will no longer compete with her for anything. And the ones that were the same age as her were all a generation lower than her. She as the elder generation, naturally only have others yielding to her. And above, she also had her parent’s pampering. Ruan Rui Zhong saw far more clearly than Ding Duke and didn’t view his daughter as a tool to exchange for benefits. She was truly a pampered miss that grew up peacefully and smoothly, without the slightest worry or concern!

Then can one assume that she was a kind-hearted person?

However, Jing Wan still felt there was something slightly off. Under this kind of pampered and spoiled environment, to have been able to not be raised into an unruly and willful person was already very good. Without anyone forcing her, could she still be this outstanding? After all, having to learn that many things, to want to be considered outstanding, naturally not only do you have to know, you also have to excel. Without putting in some effort, it would be impossible. Would a child be able to have that kind of self-awareness? Or be able to have that level of patience? That level of determination? Or rather, should it be said that she’s really just a genius, and many things, she can master in one try? One has to know, Sun Yi Jia, this outstanding noble daughter, truly was produced under high-pressure discipline.

Or there was another possibility, and that’s she actually has the same kind of fate as herself. Then, is it transmigration or rebirth?

Jing Wan carefully studied Ruan Fang Fei, attempting to find a bit of something from her to prove her guess. However, in such short time, she naturally won’t get any results.

Sun Yi Jia and Ruan Fang Fei formally greeted each other. Afterwards, Ruan Fang Fei’s line of sight landed on Jing Wan. “Don’t know which family’s young miss this is, such a pretty little sister, I’ve never seen before in the past, perhaps you’ve just arrived in the capital?” Her smile was faint, yet it made one feel very comfortable looking at it.

“This is Head Minister Luo’s granddaughter, ranked third, name Jing Wan. A few days ago, she’d just entered the capital along with Luo Old Madam.” Sun Yi Jia introduced.

Jing Wan timely curtsied, “Greetings Miss Ruan.”

Ruan Fang Fei quickly returned the curtsey. “Who doesn’t know that our Miss Sun’s eyes are the most picky, to have been able to receive Miss Sun’s favor in just a few short days, surely Luo third miss must be extremely talented in a various aspects.” Her eyes flawlessly clear and bright; her smiling expression filled with tease; it was very hard for one to dislike her.

“Miss Ruan wrongly praises, for me to have become acquainted with big sister Jia, for the most part, was all because of fated chance. Compared to you and big sister Jia’s matchless talents, I’m just an ignorant commoner.”

“Alright, if little sister Wan become over-modest, then it’ll be no fun.” Sun Yi Jia pulled over Jing Wan’s hand, “All say, people all have something they’re good at. Little sister Wan’s expertise doesn’t lie here, that’s all.”

Ruan Fang Fei watched Sun Yi Jia’s movements, and her eyes faintly flashed. Why did she feel Sun Yi Jia was purposefully doing it for her to see, like declaring, ‘This is mine, don’t get any ideas’. This kind of child-like behavior can only mean that she cares. She couldn’t help but land her gaze on Jing Wan once more. How to put it, she felt like a very unique person. She didn’t have the beautiful complexion that makes one notice her first thing, but once noticed, it was very difficult to ignore her again. No matter how boundlessly magnificent others were, it was still very hard to make her disappear among the masses. Furthermore, that nonchalant and carefree composure coming from her bones was very attractive. Ruan Fang Fei covered her mouth and laughed, “Miss Sun is worried I might steal the person?”

“Of course, mainly because little sister Wan is too attractive, I’m worried if I don’t watch her, she later might just forget about me.” Sun Yi Jia very calmly said.

“What nonsense are you saying.” Jing Wan lightly pinched her.

Sun Yi Jia immediately let out a look of grievance, pretending where she got pinch hurt very much as she massaged the spot, “I’m saying nonsense? I have proof!”

Jing Wan didn’t know whether to cry or laugh at her, “Okay, okay, don’t get worked up, be careful of your wound.”

“It hurts….” Sun Yi Jia innocently raised her hand to Jing Wan’s lips, wanting her to blow. Moreover, that ending tone practically makes one get goosebumps.

Jing Wan was extremely speechless. This is getting addicted from playing? She stared at her resolutely outstretched hand, seemingly determined to not let it go, if she doesn’t satisfy her request. Jing Wan defeatedly blew twice on her hand.

This act made Ruan Fang Fei fairly surprised. She and Sun Yi Jia didn’t interact much, but what kind of temperament Sun Yi Jia had, she was very clear. She was actually like a completely different person in private? Shouldn’t be possible. If it really was like this, there wouldn’t be no rumors at all. Then, this was purely because of Luo third miss? Very interesting. Looking again to Luo third miss, she was clearly younger in age, yet had an indulging and loving look. This scene sure was warm, and really……unsightly, really want to……have it destroyed!

“This many flowers, what are you cutting them down for?” Ruan Fang Fei once again raised the question from the very beginning.

“Originally, there were four of us that came to admire the flowers, but right now, it’s inconvenient for them to come out, so we plan to cut some back to put in a vase.” Jing Wan explained, her tone softened a bit.

Ruan Fang Fei’s smile weakened, “Sorry, I didn’t know. Speaking of this matter, I also have fault. If the driver had been able to control the horse, perhaps…….”

“This matter naturally has nothing to do with Miss Ruan. Miss Ruan was also quite startled, needless to brood over this matter.”

“Miss Luo is magnanimous.”

“Just seeking the truth from the facts, that’s all.” Jing Wan faintly smiled. Just, Ruan Fang Fei wasn’t that injured, and looking at her now, she really looked like nothing was wrong. However, she was unconscious for a very long time. Even when people came from the capital yesterday, she all didn’t wake up. However, once she woke up, her spirit was good, must have not been that frightened. Jing Wan rather underestimated these young ladies’ mental fortitude.

“Miss, let’s go back, we’ve been out for a while now, old madam must be worried.” The servant girl at Ruan Fang Fei’s side spoke.

Jing Wan was still thinking, why wasn’t it Ruan Fang Fei’s mother that came, but then immediately came to realization. This old madam was precisely Ruan Fang Fei’s mother. She was young, but unfortunately her position in the family hierarchy was high.

Have to say, towards the matter of ‘old cow eating young grass^[1]‘ in this world, Jing Wan sometimes felt both helpless and sorrowful. If young ladies are still unmarried by seventeen eighteen, they’ll be considered old maids. And those without the slightest status or position will be married off to those that were old enough to be their father or even grandfather as a second wife (of a widower). And as for men? Already fifty sixty, and yet no one would bat an eye at them taking in those young girls. Men at forty years old was still considered like a flower. Women at forty can already join the ranks of the ‘elderly’. It was just this unfair.

[1] Idiom referring to the relationship of an older man with much younger woman; there’s another chinese slang to describe this called ‘grandparent-grandchild’ romance. Basically, when the guy looks old enough to be the girl’s grandpa———-coughs all those 70yo rich men and their 20 some young wives.
