"Fifth Madam, you are truly a descendant of a military family. You are always decisive in everything you do!"

On the contrary, at this moment, Jiang Cheng did not feel embarrassed; instead, he looked back at Shou Yi with a questioning smile.

The Marshal's concubine was very proud at that time, and smiled mischievously as if she had accomplished something important: "How is it, does your great commander look like the real boss?"

What can Jiang Cheng say?
This doesn't look like a wedding at all, it's clearly an act of forcing someone to get married.

"This costs a lot of money, doesn't it?"

Jiang Cheng deliberately put on a sarcastic tone, "I've been fighting a war recently, and I'm very short of money!"

Shou Yi patted his tall shoulder with his backhand: "You are not that tall, but you act so arrogantly! Let me tell you, this is not something that people will like!"

Jiang Cheng curled his lips.

He first looked around at the servants who were still busy in the room, and then turned around slightly.

The empty corridor was so silent. Apart from a few bright yellow electric lights, there was only darkness and loneliness, which formed a sharp contrast with the enthusiasm and joy in the room.

"Where's Duan Zhigui?"

Jiang Cheng frowned, his tone even more sarcastic, "Even if it's for my concubine, he is at least marrying off his daughter! Why didn't he even show up?"

Shou Yi first told the servants who were busy decorating the room, "Hurry up!" Then he pulled Jiang Cheng over and said, "Don't say anything like concubine or wife!"

"Even though Duan Zhigui is in a bad situation now, he was a high-ranking person in the past. Even if he took the initiative to propose this marriage, he must think that this concubine is not very glorious, right?"

Haha, you offered your daughter to be your concubine, but now you think it would be embarrassing and would lower your status to be your concubine?

Damn it, if you think it’s embarrassing, just don’t give it to me.

"I'm not interested in his daughter. I've married her. Master's order—"

Jiang Cheng was really indifferent to this kind of double-faced behavior, and even sneered, "As for the next step, it is also the order of the handsome man to assist him in entering the customs. These are related to his daughter."

However, before he could finish his words, he heard a burst of women's laughter coming from the stairs at the end of the corridor.

Something like, "Girl, you are so beautiful. Today is a happy day, you should be very happy."

Jiang Cheng was startled, but Shou Yi beside him cried out in surprise, turned his body and walked quickly to the back.

Seeing the women of the Marshal's Mansion walking slowly around Duan Xinyu, who was wearing a bright red wedding dress, each of them spoke words of blessing with warm smiles on their faces.

However, even at this distance, Jiang Cheng could still see the bitterness on her face... This was not a formal marriage, so there was naturally no phoenix crown and bridal robe and a series of red tape:
According to the old custom, a sedan chair would be carried into the courtyard through the side door to complete the marriage, and the matter was considered settled.

However, at this point, Jiang Cheng felt increasingly uncomfortable - especially when he saw the expression of the woman in her wedding dress, he lost all interest.

Especially... when he saw Yu Fengzhi and the Fifth Madam helping her over, Jiang Cheng could clearly see that his eldest sister looked a little strange.

"Go down!"

After a simple ceremony, Shou Yi drove all the servants out, and then Yu Fengzhi brought up two bowls of dumplings: "Descendants' dumplings... This means having many children and more blessings!"

"The two newlyweds ate immediately, and lived together till old age in harmony."

Jiang Cheng took it in both hands - he went straight to the Marshal's Mansion as soon as he arrived in Fengtian, he hadn't eaten or drunk anything yet; he didn't care about the dumplings whether they were for his descendants or not, he just had to fill his stomach first.

"Sister, I'm thirsty, can you give me a whole bowl of water?"

Seeing that the bride beside him had no appetite, Jiang Cheng pretended to be playful. Yu Fengzhi looked at him and shook her head, then just as she poured a bowl of water from the table, Duan Xinyu beside him stood up carefully and respectfully handed it to Jiang Cheng: "Master Jiang, please enjoy."

This action surprised the women in the room. Jiang Cheng reached out and took it from him... Shou Yi smiled and said, "Oh, why are we still staying here and getting in the way?"

"Come on, sisters, let's play cards and have some fun - Fengzhi, let's still follow the old rules, when the mothers play cards, you have to remember the cards!"

After saying this, she gathered her hands and drove all the female family members out of the door.

The door was locked.

Jiang Cheng avoided her gaze, picked up the bowl and drank it all... But what he didn't expect was that this new concubine actually knelt down in front of him without saying a word!

"What do you mean by this?"

Slowly putting down the bowl and chopsticks, Jiang Cheng half-closed his eyes and looked over coldly——

Duan Xinyu said sadly: "I understand. From now on, I belong to Master Jiang! But, I beg you..."

Jiang Cheng's lazy voice interrupted her: "Don't you want to live in the mansion, or don't you want me to touch you?"

Duan Xinyu raised her head, her expression so sad that she almost cried: "Neither! Since you are Mr. Jiang's man, naturally... I will follow your will!"

"I want to ask you, Master Jiang, to let the Duan family go. My brother, my aunt, and... my father... and everyone else!"

All of them sacrificed you, and then, you plan to exchange your body for these?
Regardless of whether it can be exchanged or not, do you think it is worth it?
There was more sadness in his eyes, and Jiang Cheng shook his head gently at her.

Probably guessing that she was dreaming, Duan Xinyu couldn't help but whimper; but Jiang Cheng turned slightly and pulled her into his arms.

As his arms quickly tightened, Jiang Cheng felt this soft body resisting involuntarily...but this resistance soon turned into waves of tremors.

"Are you scared?"

The frightened look of the little rabbit made him feel more pity for her. "I won't touch you, at least not today—"

"But if you want me to protect the Duan family, I have to see how sincere your father is."

As he spoke, his eyes slowly moved towards the little hands clenched on his chest, "Just giving me a daughter like this is not enough."

Duan Xinyu gritted her teeth but had nothing to say.

"Get some rest."

Jiang Cheng pushed her up and said, "Only when your father is really willing to give himself up, the Jiang family can help him!"

He grabbed his coat before going out and slammed the door.

What the hell is this? If you give me a woman, you will protect your whole family?

With the Cai family as a precedent, we can still...

But just as he turned the stairs to go out, he bumped into Zhang Hanqing who was coming in: "Hey, where are you going, kid?"

Looking up and meeting his gaze, Jiang Cheng looked over his shoulder and saw Guo Maochen following closely behind him.

"I heard that you took a concubine, didn't you? Hehe, why aren't you accompanying your new bride? Are you not satisfied with the service you received?"

He went forward and punched him. Zhang Hanqing laughed evilly and said, "Come on, if you're not happy, I'll take you to a nice place!" (End of this chapter)
