Compared to the stir caused by Song Jing's wedding, Ji Liantang's marriage two days later attracted significantly less attention.
The only reason it generated any buzz at all wasn't because of the groom, but because of the bride.
The bride's status was certainly no match for the dazzling daughter of the Academic Administrator, but for a country village, she was quite a catch—Du Caizhu, the only daughter of Master Du from West Village.
Does that name sound a little familiar?
Well, it was the very same family the Ji family had nearly arranged a marriage with for Ji Liantang several years ago!
But that year, Ji Liantang passed the exam to become a child student and refused the match, no matter what. The whole affair caused a very unpleasant falling out between the two families.
Who would have thought that after five or six years, the broken engagement would be mended?
