Chapter 531: Wang Eng’s Talent


    Trantor: Henyee Trantions Editor: Henyee Trantions


    The Jiang Family did not expect to be rebuked by the Wang Family’s Old Madam when they came here so sincerely.


    They originally thought that even if the Wang Family was dissatisfied, they still had to give them some face.


    Who wouldn’t say a few nice words and put on a show?


    Not to mention them, even the Royal Family would often swallow their emotions and put on a nice face.


    Why did it not work when it came to the Wang Family!


    As expected, these people who came from a poor family were extremely vulgar!


    The Jiang Family left after giving the gifts.


    They originally wanted to talk about Second Miss Jiang’s marriage, but they could not do so for the time being.


    However, no matter how dissatisfied they were with this marriage, they had to facilitate it.


    Who asked Second Miss Jiang to admit everything in public and damage her own reputation?


    If she did not marry into the Wang Family, her only way out was to be a nun.


    How could they bear to part with the delicate daughter they had raised!


    Hence, the group of them left indignantly. When they returned home, they naturally told everyone about this.


    The First Madam of the Jiang Family was especially angry. She went back and told her husband about this.


    The Jiang Family could be considered a century-old family. They had descendants who were officials in the country, but the highest was only a sixth-grade official.


    “The Wang Family is quite arrogant. They even said that Wang Zng will be a fourth-grade official in the future. It’s simply the biggest joke in the world!” Eldest Madam Jiang was so angry that her chest heaved up and down, and her tone became rarely sharp and mean. “Not only that, they insisted that our people injured him and intended to damage his life in the future. If he can’t be a high-ranking official, won’t they me us?!”


    She originally thought that her husband would respond to her. Unexpectedly, after pondering for a few breaths, the Jiang Family Head suddenly shook his head after thinking about Wang Zng.


    “You’re wrong. If you’re talking about the other boys of the Wang Family, 1 don’t know much about them, but I’ve seen the Wang Family’s second son, Wang Zng.”


    “Husband, what do you mean? Could it be that Wang Zng is really capable?” Eldest Madam Jiang had never seen Wang Zng before, but after asking around, she knew that he had risen up from a vige in the countryside. His family had a bit of money, but they were still a poor family.


    So what if he was a county schr?


    Their prefecture city had many county schrs in their teens!


    The Jiang Family Head sighed. “Previously, in spring, the prefectural magistrate held a banquet and invited students to recite poems. Wang Zng originally did not participate. Later on, for some reason, he was picked on and mocked for not having real talent and stealing the invitation to the banquet. He was not angry. He only smiled andposed three poems on the spot, one praising the spring, one praising the banquet, and one thanking his family.”


    Eldest Madam Jiang was curious. “Is there a special meaning behind the poems?”


    “When I went to listen, 1 didn’t expect much, but there were also several grand schrs present at the time. After listening, we saw that the other students were all puzzled and burst intoughter. It turned out that those three poems were of top quality, both in terms of rhythm and wording, and even used several literary allusions to mock those students who had given him a hard time. Unfortunately, those self-proimed high-ranking schrs couldn’t even recognize it. It shows that this student has great knowledge, excellent character, and is not someone who would be easily taken advantage of. If he were to enter the officialdom in the future, even if he didn’t enter by being in the top three in the imperial exams, he would still have a ce in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.”


    The Hall of Supreme Harmony was where Emperor Minghua recruited talents. It was usually not open and only epted capable officials.


    Officials below the fourth-grade were not allowed to enter.


    Eldest Madam Jiang gasped. “Then… could it be that our child has really dyed his future?!”


    Moreover, from the looks of it, even if they stopped pursuing the matter, the other party would not agree to the marriage.


    “There’s no hurry. I’ll ask Grandma about this.” The Jiang Family Head revealed a calm smile.


    The Jiang Family’s Great-Grandma was a legendary figure. In the eyes of the children and grandchildren, there was nothing she could not handle at home..
