Chapter 184 Late Autumn(1/2)
After Gu Laoshan and Jiang knew the truth, of course they would not let Jiang Qingshan go.⊥, the two found Jiang Qingshan and made a big fuss. The final result was that Jiang Qingshan gave them a lot of money and made many wishes at the same time.
Uncle Gu and Jiang did not make things happen, but Gu Xia'er knew that they would not give up just like that.
These days, the couple ran here very frequently. On the surface, they said they were visiting themselves, but in fact they were looking for Jiang Qingshan.
The couple thought they had seized Jiang Qingshan's handle and wanted to move the entire Jiang family back to Gu's house.
Her parents really care about not her, but her ability to use her to make money from the Jiang family.
When Jiang Qingshan gave the money, he seemed to feel that he had passed the road with her, and he didn't even avoid the servants. Gu Xia'er felt very angry, but she could do nothing.
Gu Xiaer was lowering her head and thinking about her thoughts when she heard heavy footsteps outside. Then, a little girl reported at the door that the master was here.
Gu Xia'er couldn't help but shake, and Jiang Qingshan came to see her again. She wanted to scream immediately. She could hardly bear to be in the same room as Jiang Qingshan.
However, Gu Xia'er pursed her lips tightly and didn't make any sound.
Many things are born and it is difficult to recover. Since they are already like this, what else can she be afraid of? Jiang Qingshan has an ulterior motive for her, so she might as well just give in to the sermon.
Master Ji Er told her to investigate what she had not found out yet.
When it was found out what mysterious character Jiang Qingshan was interacting with, she would make great contributions to Mr. Ji Er. At that time, she would have a new world.
"Wife, are you getting better today?" Jiang Qingshan had already entered the house at this time and walked towards Gu Xiaer's bed.
Gu Xia'er tried her best to suppress the disgust in her heart, raised her head, and glanced at Jiang Qingshan indifferently.
Gu Xia'er's attitude can be said to be very cold, but when Jiang Qingshan saw him, he was happy. Gu Xia'er's attitude was much better than when she saw him like an enemy in the past.
Women are soft-hearted and short-sighted, and they can't help but be attentive, not to mention that he has used so much effort to Gu Xia'er. Seeing Gu Xia'er gradually soften her, she took out more money to bribe Gu Laojiu and Jiang, and asked the two of them to persuade Gu Xia'er, then Gu Xia'er's body and heart would be all his.
Jiang Qingshan was thinking of the wishful thinking and sat down next to Gu Xiaer's bed.
Gu Xia'er seemed to have shrunk into the bed, but said nothing.
Jiang Qingshan sat down with confidence and held one of Gu Xia'er's hands...
...
Ji Mansion
Ji Xiaotang rested all night and felt refreshed when she woke up in the morning. ¢£. As soon as she got cleaned up, she saw the wet nurse holding Changsheng over with a smile.
"As soon as the young master woke up in the morning, he was going to find the third girl."
It is already autumn, and the weather is a little cold in the morning and evening. Changsheng was holding a thin quilt on his body, and the wet nurse stretched out two short and fat little arms at Ji Xiaotang in her arms, meaning that Ji Xiaotang would hold it.
Ji Xiaotang quickly got up and took Changsheng in his arms.
"Does Changsheng miss his sister?" Ji Xiaotang kissed Changsheng's pink face and asked with a smile.
Changsheng's big eyes narrowed, his mouth widened and his pink gums revealed. He screamed, then he pressed his little face on Ji Xiaotang's face, pouted his little mouth, and applied saliva to Ji Xiaotang's face.
Ji Xiaotang was also amused by Changsheng.
After playing with Changsheng for a while, Xiu'er reminded Ji Xiaotang that it was time to pay homage to Mrs. Ji Er.
Ji Xiaotang regained his face and hugged Changsheng to Mrs. Ji Er's house.
Master Ji Er and Mrs. Ji Er were both here. They were naturally very happy to see Ji Xiaotang hugging Changsheng.
"You go to the capital city these days, Changsheng will look for you every day. If you can't find you, you will cry. You will coax you for a long time every time." Mrs. Ji Er complained, but her tone was full of joy.
"My uncle got back from the exam for the juren, and his sister didn't go anywhere. She just stayed at home to accompany Changsheng." Ji Xiaotang rubbed Changsheng's little butt and said with a smile.
Changsheng seemed to understand Ji Xiaotang's words and giggled.
After a few people talked, they all came to Mrs. Ji's house again.
In the upper room of Mrs. Ji, Mrs. Ji was talking to Mr. Ji San, and Ji Xiaoyun sat with her. Everyone in the room was smiling, only Ji Xiaoyun seemed a little bit careless.
Ji Xiaotang didn't say much, so he took Changsheng to sit on the low couch next to him, listening to everyone's chatting about home affairs.
After sitting for a while, Ji Xiaotang noticed something strange.
When Mr. Ji San returned from the imperial examination, his uncle Gu's family was not in trouble. This was clearly a great opportunity to please Mrs. Ji. How could Mrs. Gu give up? Moreover, Mrs. Ji refused to mention Mrs. Gu's words.
Because she came back late yesterday, although she had a lot of talks with Master Ji Er and Mrs. Ji Er, there were still some things she didn't have time to ask about.
Just as Ji Xiaotang was thinking this, he saw Ji Xiaoyun slowly move over and sit next to the couch.
Changsheng recognized Ji Xiaoyun and greeted her.
Ji Xiaoyun responded perfunctorily twice, reached out to tease Changsheng twice, obviously having something to worry about.
"Sister, we are back, why didn't anyone come from my uncle?" Ji Xiaotang asked Ji Xiaoyun.∮,
Ji Xiaoyun glanced at Ji Xiaotang, with a little sadness in her eyes, and... condemnation.
Ji Xiaotang frowned slightly, very puzzled.
"Don't take them with my grandmother." Ji Xiaoyun looked at Ji Xiaotang, then withdrew her gaze, and reminded Ji Xiaotang at the same time.
"Why?" Ji Xiaotang asked.
"What else can they make their grandmother angry. Don't ask, you shouldn't know these things." Ji Xiaoyun replied casually. At this time, she was quite as posing as an elder sister, as if Ji Xiaotang was a child, and she was already an adult.
"Grandmother never gets angry with her uncle for a long time. It must be because of immortality." Ji Xiaotang said.
"It's something else, don't inquire." Ji Xiaoyun said impatiently.
"Sister, you must not know, otherwise why don't you say it?" Ji Xiaotang said deliberately.
"Why don't I know? It's not because of Gu Xia'er..." Ji Xiaoyun said immediately. However, after saying that, she immediately realized that she had left.
Ji Xiaoyun glared at Ji Xiaotang hatefully.
"You still have the heart to care about this? You are not heartless!"
Ji Xiaotang showed up, and Ji Xiaoyun was indeed condemning her.
"Why am I heartless?" Ji Xiaotang asked.
"Why don't you ask Huai Jin?" Ji Xiaoyun said rushingly. As soon as she said this, she seemed to break through some kind of concern. "Huai Jin failed the exam. Do you know that you still have the intention to be so happy!"
Like his previous life experience, Xie Huaijin was not good at the provincial examination this time and did not pass the imperial examination. Xie Huaijin had not returned to Qingyuan yet, but the news had been sent back first. Naturally, the news did not spread. Now, except for the Xie family, only the Ji family knew about it.
Ji Xiaotang also knew about it, and Mrs. Ji told her yesterday.
Ji Xiaotang had long been mentally prepared for Xie Huaijin's failure, and there was no way to be happy or unhappy.
However, it was too strange for Ji Xiaoyun to condemn her because of this.
"Sister, I shouldn't be happy when my uncle was a juren?" Ji Xiaotang restrained the smile on his face and looked at Ji Xiaoyun. "Do you seem unhappy, because my uncle passed the juren, or because Brother Huaijin failed the exam?"
No matter which one it is, Ji Xiaoyun has no reason to be so unhappy.
Ji Xiaoyun was stopped by Ji Xiaotang, and her face turned red all of a sudden.
Changsheng was in Ji Xiaotang's arms, with his big eyes looking left and right. The child noticed something was wrong, but obviously he didn't know what happened.
Ji Xiaoyun couldn't speak, so she stood up and rushed out of the room with a red face.
Both sisters lowered their voices when they spoke. Old Mrs. Ji did not pay attention to what they were saying. At this time, Ji Xiaoyun's actions were alarmed.
"What's wrong?" Old Mrs. Ji temporarily put down her words to Master Ji San, then looked over and asked Ji Xiaotang, "What are you two saying? Why are Xiaoyun so angry?"
"I didn't say anything." Ji Xiaotang instinctively knew that he could not tell the truth, especially that he could not mention Xie Huaijin. "I don't know why he talked about the uncle and the elder sister left."
Ji Xiaotang said this and looked at Old Mrs. Ji's face
Old Mrs. Ji's face changed slightly.
"What did he say about him? This is my grievance. No one is allowed to ask him for me!"
Old Mrs. Ji was angry.
Ji Xiaotang got up quickly and obediently responded.
Old Mrs. Ji was in a state of anger, but the fire could not be directed at Ji Xiaotang no matter what. She could only endure it herself, but her mood was completely broken. Old Mrs. Ji leaned against the lead pillow in a bad mood and was unwilling to speak.
Everyone had to come out of Old Mrs. Ji's house.
Master Ji Er glanced at Ji Xiaotang, but said nothing.
Ji Xiaotang soon learned why Old Mrs. Ji was unhappy.
It turned out that Mrs. Ji knew about Gu Xia'er in a daze. That was not all. She also knew about Gu Lao Lao and Jiang's actions. Gu Lao Lao Lao Lao and Jiang used Gu Xia'er's affairs as a handle for Jiang Qingshan and blackmailed Jiang Qingshan for money.
Moreover, these two people planned to sell Gu Xiaer to Jiang Qingshan.
In the eyes of Mrs. Ji, this is simply a backboneless and shameless act. Mrs. Ji once called Mrs. Gu to his home to scold her, but she still did not know how to repent.
Old Mrs. Ji was so cold to Uncle Gu.
"Grandma is just this brother, and she has always felt like a heart-to-heart baby. Even if she feels cold for a moment, she will slowly recover." Ji Xiaotang analyzed rationally.
This is why uncle Gu is not really afraid of Mrs. Ji.
The attitude Mrs. Ji shows now is ultimately embarrassing.
"You must be naughty today and you won't be allowed in the future." Mrs. Ji Er told Ji Xiaotang, "Don't you know your grandmother's temper?"
Ji Xiaotang smiled and nodded, promising that he would not raise it on his own initiative in the future.
