Chapter 283 The Untamed 35
In the end, the Jiang family disciples took first place in the Baifeng Mountain Night Hunt, followed by the Lan family, the Jin family took third place, and the Nie family ranked last among the four major families, so Jiang Xinxin and Lan Huan agreed that it would be better to give the position of Immortal Supervisor to Nie Mingjue.
Nie Mingjue didn't want to bother with these mundane matters. When Jiang Xinxin first brought it up, he rejected it outright: "It's not necessary to be the Immortal Supervisor, and I really don't have any interest in it. Besides, no matter how you look at it, you, Sect Master Jiang, are more suitable to be the Immortal Supervisor."
Jiang Xinxin advised: "It seems that I am indeed suitable for the position of Immortal Supervisor, but after the Sun Shooting Campaign, the Jiang family has already got the biggest piece of cake. It is really not appropriate for me to occupy the position of Immortal Supervisor."
"Originally, Sect Master Lan and Second Young Master Lan were both suitable candidates. I also asked Second Young Master Lan privately, and he also recommended you, Sect Master Nie."
"Sect Master Nie hates evil and is eager to help others. He is indeed the most suitable candidate to be the Immortal Leader at the moment."
Jiang Xinxin's words were truly heartfelt, otherwise she wouldn't have directly compared others and only mentioned Nie Mingjue at the end.
And Nie Mingjue really didn’t mind these details at all. He did look like a rough man, but the reason he was able to sit firmly on the position of the head of the Nie clan at the age of thirteen or fourteen was not because of his violent temper.
Lan Huan also quickly expressed his support for Nie Mingjue. Seeing that Jiang Xinxin and Lan Huan both sincerely supported him to be the Immortal Leader, Nie Mingjue gritted his teeth and agreed.
Therefore, at the final dinner, even though Jin Guangshan had won over a group of small and medium-sized families to sing his praises, the position of Immortal Leader still fell to Nie Mingjue, making all of Jin Guangshan's plans come to naught, and he looked really ugly.
At the same time, the conflict between Jin Zixuan and Jin Guangshan became increasingly serious, even to the point where it was difficult to reconcile. However, even though Jin Guangshan recognized Meng Yao as his own, changed her name, and entrusted her with important tasks, Jin Zixuan's position could not be shaken.
Moreover, even if Jin Guangshan did not like Jin Zixuan's close relationship with Jiang family, he had to admit that with Jin Zixuan's talent and his relationship with Jiang family, it was very likely that Jin family would develop better in Jin Zixuan's hands than in his hands in the future.
But what Jin Guangshan didn't expect was that Jin Guangyao, whom he regarded as his most useful tool, secretly trusted Jin Zixuan more. Even Jin Guangyao returned to the Jin family with the merits gained from the Sun Shooting Campaign, just to make it easier for him to take revenge.
On that day, Jin Zixuan proposed to add his name, Jin Ziyao, to the family tree, but was rejected by Meng Yao. So even though he knew that the name Jin Guangyao itself represented Jin Guangshan's dislike and all kinds of malice towards him, he still "gladly accepted it".
What exactly were Jin Zixuan and Meng Yao planning behind their backs? Not only Jiang Xinxin, but even Jiang Yanli had no idea. As for Madam Jin, who had been watching the actions of the two juniors from beginning to end, she turned around and secretly adopted Meng Yao as her adopted son, and recorded Meng Shi's name in the Jin family genealogy in the name of Meng Yao's mother.
In this way, Meng Yao naturally appeared in the genealogy of the Jin family, and Meng Shi could also legitimately receive the incense from Meng Yao's descendants. With the help of Jin Zixuan, Meng Yao could also get a share of Jin Guangshan's private property and Jin's property in the future.
Of course, Jiang Xinxin didn’t know all this. After the incident at Baifeng Mountain was over, she, Wei Ying, and Jiang Erya returned to Yunmeng Lotus Pier, and received good news.
Yu Ziyuan pays attention to her grandson who is being raised in the lotus pond every day. These days, she feels that her grandson is about to be born, and she wishes she could stay with him all the time so that she can watch him every moment until he is born.
Yu Ziyuan directly pulled the two fathers of the child over and explained carefully: "Since you two are back, you should arrange shifts to take good care of the child in the next few days. Don't wait until the child is born and miss it. That would be a regret that can never be made up."
Wei Ying's residence was right next to Jiang Xinxin's. Since the two of them were already a couple tacitly acknowledged by their elders, Jiang Xinxin simply demolished the wall between her yard and Wei Ying's yard, "You live in my room now, and in the future, your side will be for the children to live in."
Wei Ying couldn't suppress the smile, but Yu Ziyuan suggested: "It's not realistic for the two of you to have a wedding, but you can invite your relatives and friends to witness you becoming a Taoist couple."
This is a really good idea. Wei Ying looked at Jiang Xinxin eagerly, his eyes full of desire, "A Cheng~"
Jiang Xinxin nodded, "We don't need to invite many people. In addition to the brothers and sisters at home, there are also my sister and Jin Zixuan, Lan Zhan and Nie Huaisang."
Originally, there should have been some children from noble families that I met when I was studying in Yunshen Buzhichu, but unfortunately, due to the evil deeds of the Wen family, many of them have passed away. Now, the only ones I am still in contact with are the two brothers from the Ouyang family in Huizhou.
Wei Ying thought of his former friends and felt depressed, but he still added with a smile, "There are also Wen Qing and Wen Ning, brother and sister. I heard that they recently had a very cute nephew, and Wen Qing even said that she would send him to Lotus Pier."
Speaking of Wen Qing and Wen Ning, Yu Ziyuan was also quite sad, but those things were in the past, and now their Dafanshan Wen family had started a new life and had completely cut off ties with the Qishan Wen family. Their future life would only be better.
Come to think of it, if Wen Qing didn't have some connection with the Wen family, before she knew that Wei Ying and Jiang Xinxin were together, she really thought about letting Wen Qing be her daughter-in-law. After all, Wen Qing is, to some extent, a stronger and more extroverted version of Jiang Yanli. It's no wonder that she treats Wen Qing differently.
The child was born on a sunny morning. Although Jiang Xinxin and Wei Ying were both guarding the lotus pond at that time, there were many calamus planted around the lotus pond. The dew on the calamus has the effect of improving eyesight, so Jiang Xinxin was in a good mood and she and Wei Ying each held a jade bottle to collect dew.
Both of them had their backs to the child and were concentrating on their own studies, so they ignored the slight fluctuations in spiritual energy. It was only when they heard the baby's first cry that they realized the child was born.
At this time, Jiang Fengmian and Yu Ziyuan, who heard the baby crying, put down their work and rushed to the child. After entering the room, they saw Jiang Xinxin and Wei Ying busily swaddling the baby.
"Oh, that's enough, please let go. You are so clumsy, what shall I do if you hurt my darling grandson?"
Yu Ziyuan angrily pushed the three men aside. Looking at Jiang Xinxin and Wei Ying sweating and feeling frightened, she felt both angry and amused.
Other children have breast milk from birth, but this child was born different. Yu Ziyuan didn't dare to go out to find a wet nurse, so Jiang Xinxin specially fed a group of goats with grass containing spiritual energy in advance to provide the child with goat milk.
