It had been Half a Month
Celebrations where all around the palace as the Crown Prince married Jiang Ya as his first wife. It has certainly become a wonderful evening.
It's a time when all of the Jiang Clan and all the Members of the royal family have a banquet. Celebrating their ties through marriage.
Xiuying closed her eyes tired of watching her mother fawning on her father.
"Must be great without that family trash around, First Cousin" a male said walking up to her the son of Jiang Lou's younger brother Jiang Fen, Jiang Jia.
"Fourth Cousin, there is nothing wrong with Third Sister"
"First Cousin surely you Jest. Ah! I have heard that Third Sister challenged the Tian Young Master, she must be seeking death" He smiled.
"Fourth Cousin let me ask who you dislike more. Third Sister or that Tian family's young Master"
"It would have to be the Tian Family's young Master. He has been rather aggressive towards out Family lately. He has even been chasing after my Wife as of late."
"Yes, and his aggression shall be paid in full"
"Oh? Does First Cousin have something in Mind?" he smiled
"Fourth Cousin, all I can say is that it will be an interesting show"
Xiuying clear and calm eyes sent shivers down Jiang Jia's back.
"Well, First Cousin I shouldn't keep you any longer." With that he left somewhat lost in thoughts.
The Jiang Clans, Former Clan leader Jiang Meng, their Grandfather
Passed his position down he passed it not to his son's, but his eldest granddaughter Jiang Xiuying and she was but Eight years old at the time. His father and his Second Uncle thought this was a bad idea. But, strangely his First Uncle did not say a word. Although her actions weren't well known to the rest of the family, but Jiang Xiuying prevented disaster after disaster. It was exceedingly impressive, it got to the point that both his second uncle and his father couldn't even voice in any complaints.
And then his First Cousin got married at Fifteen leaving the Jiang family to Second Uncle because his First didn't want it. Under Second Uncle's hand he fell for a compelled disaster which cost him his life and then the position went to his father who was still barely able to clean up the mess.
Then his Cousin husband died in Battle. There Grandfather Jiang Meng proposed bringing his Cousin back to the family as family head. She refused until her father send for her return.
Her return to the Jiang Family was hectic as her completely cleared out all spies and, strengthened their forces. And Cleaned up the disaster that wasn't easily fixed all in a span of one month.
Jiang Jia is not actually upset about her becoming the Clan head, in fact in his own opinion some who is able to do what she did is not only impressive but a complete monster. But the Same can not be said about his elder brother and other cousins
Xiuying returned home not long after, her sister was married to a prince strengthening the Jiang Family's position in the Xuerang county. Although it really didn't matter to her anyway, Jiang Ya may be a selfish spoiled brat, however, at the end of the day that girl was still her sister a family member. She was someone who she watched grow up and molded into their mother's ideal.
Jiang Ya still has a chance to change into the better, something in which Xiuying fully believes.
