Chapter 207 Turn Your Face(1/2)
Wang Jiaoer once stayed in the underground secret room of Liuxian Temple, but when Qi Younian found him, he was transferred away first. ()
As for where he moved, it is another mystery. Or, although Wang Jiaoer escaped the fire in Yanzhi Lane, she was still extinguished later.
Ji Xiaotang once asked Gu Xia'er that Jiang Qingshan rarely went out after the fire in Yanzhi Lane, and he had never even been out of the city. He only helped arrange the parking of Gu Lei'er's coffin.
Jiang Qingshan alone would never fail to visit Wang Jiaoer, nor would he move Wang Jiaoer away without leaving any trace.
Therefore, in order to catch the big fish behind Jiang Qingshan, Jiang Qingshan cannot be touched for the time being.
"If you don't move a lot, you can move a little. You can't make him too proud. Moreover, the more we keep our troops in such a way, the more we will make the people behind him suspicious." Ji Xiaotang suggested to Master Ji Er. "If you move a little, you don't need us to take action at all."
"I agree with Xiaotang's opinion." Master Ji San said immediately, he was more eager than anyone else to deal with Jiang Qingshan.
Master Ji Er also understood what Ji Xiaotang meant, and after thinking for a moment, he nodded.
"Don't worry about this matter, leave it to me to arrange it."
Ji Xiaotang and Master Ji San both nodded in agreement.
Within two days, the second largest pawnshop in Qingyuan, under the name of Jiang Qingshan, was found to be privately stolen. The pawnshop owner and a group of gangs were taken to the county government office, and the pawnshop was also sealed up that day.
As the owner of the pawnshop, Jiang Qingshan naturally couldn't get away with it and was invited to the county government.
After a few days of this incident, Jiang Qingshan had to pay a large fine to waive the interrogation. The shopkeeper and the clerk of the pawnshop were all blocked, and many things in the pawnshop were confiscated by the yamen. After that, Jiang Qingshan used a lot of money and the pawnshop was unblocked. However, after this incident, the pawnshop was greatly damaged and had to close the door temporarily.
From beginning to end, Xie Gui was in this incident. Xie Gui did not avoid suspicion and even walked face to face with Jiang Qingshan on the street and mocked Jiang Qingshan. Xie Gui took the lead this time and was already an official, so Jiang Qingshan couldn't do anything to him.
In the thirty years of Hedong and in the thirty years of Hexi, Jiang Qingshan once again suffered a disadvantage in front of Xie Gui.
Jiang Qingshan was injured in wealth and was angry, so he heard that he was sick.
Ji Xiaotang just smiled slightly when he heard about this.
In late April, the weather became warmer. On this day, Ji Xiaotang was walking freely in Ruyi Garden, and a little girl came to report to her that Ji Xiaoyun was here.
"I came back with my second sister-in-law. Has my in-laws come?" Ji Xiaotang asked.
The little girl told Ji Xiaotang that only Ji Xiaoyun and Qin Boyang were here, and Wang did not come.
"I understand." Ji Xiaotang nodded, cut a few more flowers before slowly coming to Old Lady Ji. "≤,
After Ji Xiaoyun got married, she lived in Qinghe Hutong, not far from Ji's mansion. However, Ji Xiaoyun did not often go home for a walk as Old Lady Ji and others imagined.
Everyone knows how attached to Mrs. Ji Xiaoyun is. But after becoming a relative, she seems to have completely transferred this attachment to Qin Boyang.
Old Mrs. Ji was very disappointed because of this. She even beat someone to Qinghe Hutong to spread a message and asked Ji Xiaoyun to come back. Ji Xiaoyun came back obediently, but she refused to sit for more than one time, and would not leave her to eat. At most, she would go back in a hurry after sitting for half an hour.
Ji Xiaoyun said that she was already the daughter-in-law of the Qin family. She had a husband to take care of and a mother-in-law to serve.
If she is so virtuous, who can say she is wrong?
Today, Ji Xiaoyun came back on the voluntary basis. At this time, she must be in Mrs. Ji's house.
Sure enough, when Ji Xiaotang entered the upper room of Mrs. Ji, she saw Ji Xiaoyun sitting next to Mrs. Ji's legs, and the grandparents and grandchildren were talking with a smile.
Qin Boyang is not in the house.
"Sister is back." Ji Xiaotang smiled and stepped forward.
Ji Xiaoyun owed her body, but the color was faint. She just greeted Ji Xiaotang and sat down again.
"Where is my brother-in-law?" Ji Xiaotang asked.
"Your brother-in-law goes to the study in front of the door, and your father wants to ask him about his homework." Ji Xiaoyun didn't speak, but Old Mrs. Ji told Ji Xiaotang with a smile.
"You always care about it." Ji Xiaoyun said in a low voice.
"What did my sister say?"
"It's nothing." Ji Xiaoyun turned her face away and didn't look at Ji Xiaotang.
Ji Xiaotang didn't ask, but she had already heard Ji Xiaoyun clearly.
After Ji Xiaoyun got married, she went back to her parents' home several times. At first, it was fine, but later Ji Xiaotang realized that Ji Xiaoyun treated her and Mrs. Ji became more and more cold, especially when she treated her, she didn't look like they had already reconciled.
Sitting in Mrs. Ji's house for a while, Ji Xiaotang said to remind him that Ji Xiaoyun should go and see Mrs. Ji Er.
"You go and see your mother," Old Mrs. Ji did not stop Ji Xiaoyun, "Your mother is not in good health these two days."
Ji Xiaoyun stood up slowly and did not ask Mrs. Ji Er what was wrong, so she followed Ji Xiaotang out.
After coming out of Old Mrs. Ji's yard, Ji Xiaotang couldn't help but look at Ji Xiaoyun. Ji Xiaoyun's face was very good, and she obviously lived a very comfortable life these days.
"Is Madam Cheng okay? Why didn't she come back with her sister?" Ji Xiaotang asked Ji Xiaoyun.
Ji Xiaoyun seemed a little impatient.⊥,
"She is very good. She cares about the family affairs, and I can't even speak. She is reluctant to leave those things and come back with me!"
Ji Xiaotang felt something was very wrong.
What Ji Xiaoyun said was not Madam Cheng at all. Madam Cheng is a smart person and she would never be able to do such a thing.
"Sister, have some misunderstandings? Why don't you call Mama and let everyone tell me that it's better to go together." Ji Xiaotang said, "It's not a difficult thing to hit someone and call Mama Cheng now. But Mrs. Ji has always been reserved for her identity and said that she specifically asked Mama Cheng to ask about family affairs, for fear that Qin Boyang and Wang would be uncomfortable if they misunderstood the Ji family's interference in the Qin family's housework.
"No misunderstanding. OK, what do you ask her to do... She has to take care of a lot of things at home and also has to accompany her mother-in-law." Ji Xiaoyun said immediately, obviously unwilling to Ji Xiaotang to find Madam Cheng.
Ji Xiaotang remained silent, but made up his mind to find a way to talk to Mama Cheng.
“…I’m not like you…”
Just as Ji Xiaotang was thinking, he heard Ji Xiaoyun speak again. Ji Xiaoyun's face was impatient and obvious boredom. Ji Xiaotang couldn't help but stop.
Ji Xiaoyun seemed to be full of words, and at this time she finally found an opportunity to speak out.
"I am not like you, I know the duty of being a woman. It would be fine if you do that yourself, but I won't talk about you. But you are still troublesome and care about me everywhere. If my mother-in-law and husband know me, they will think I am the same as you!"
"You should avoid interfering with my family's affairs in the future!"
After Ji Xiaoyun said these words, she was angry and walked to Mrs. Ji Er's yard first.
Ji Xiaotang couldn't help but laugh when she heard these stupid words.
"I don't understand what my sister said. How did I mix with your family's affairs?"
"You haven't told the truth yet, do you think I really don't know?" Ji Xiaoyun seemed even more annoyed when she saw Ji Xiaotang ask. "I was going to marry my husband and I was not your instigation to let my parents and grandmother leave Qingyuan? Madam Cheng is yours, and you also gave her the idea to me so that I could not be the master even if I got married!"
Ji Xiaoyun said a few things in a row. Ji Xiaotang was determined to make plans for her. In her mouth, Ji Xiaotang mixed with her family affairs and opposed her, making it difficult for her to live.
"You don't look like a virtuous woman? You're so tired of me!"
Even Ji Xiaotang couldn't help but get angry.
"You have the final say on whether I am virtuous or not."
"I ignore you, just ask you not to care about my business anymore... I can only see it when I look like this. Xie Huaijin is obsessed with it and insists on marrying you. He will suffer from his future."
Ji Xiaoyun said the words in a low voice, but Ji Xiaotang still heard them.
Ji Xiaoyun ignored Ji Xiaotang and quickly entered Mrs. Ji Er's yard.
Ji Xiaotang was so happy outside the yard that he followed him into the yard and arrived at the room.
Ji Xiaoyun was already sitting under Mrs. Ji Er's bed, and Mrs. Ji Er was asking her what she said.
"Are you okay with your mother-in-law and Boyang?" Mrs. Ji Er was concerned and asked such words naturally, but she didn't know which string that touched Ji Xiaoyun.
Ji Xiaoyun pouted.
"Mother-in-law and Boyang will treat me well. I shouldn't ask this. Shouldn't I ask if I am filial to my mother-in-law and serve my husband? My mother and grandmother are not good, and life is not going well, so I shouldn't be suspicious of my family like this."
Mrs. Ji Er couldn't speak immediately.
"Xiaoyun, you, you are..."
"I have come to see my mother. Everything is fine, so I feel relieved. I'm going to accompany my grandmother. My mother has someone to accompany me, but my grandmother has no one to accompany me." Ji Xiaoyun said this and turned around and left.
Mrs. Ji Er stayed for a while, then looked at Ji Xiaotang.
"Xiaotang, your sister is..."
"How could I know?" Ji Xiaotang told Mrs. Ji Er about Ji Xiaoyun and her temper.
"This child, this is Zuo Xing's behavior." Mrs. Ji Er felt a headache.
In fact, since Ji Xiaoyun was a child, everyone has realized that Ji Xiaoyun sometimes can't tell the difference between her attitude towards Mrs. Ji and Mrs. Ji.
Originally, Mrs. Ji Er was thinking that when Ji Xiaoyun grew up and understood some human nature, she would slowly understand it. However, Ji Xiaoyun is now married and can be said to be an adult, but not only did she not understand it, but she became even more confused.
"This must be something someone said in front of her." Ji Xiaotang did not really get angry with Ji Xiaoyun, but analyzed calmly.
Mrs. Ji Er was stunned.
"You mean, someone is trying to provoke me in the middle? I have carefully selected the girls and wives who give your sister a dowry."
"Mom, I should ask the nanny to come back and ask." Ji Xiaotang did not answer Mrs. Ji's second wife's words, but directly proposed.
"Okay." Mrs. Ji Er nodded, "I'll ask your sister's two big girls to come and ask me."
Ji Xiaotang agreed and immediately ordered people to call Dingxiang and Hanmei. These two girls grew up with Ji Xiaoyun since childhood. Now they have been dowry girls, and they go to Qinghe Hutong to serve Ji Xiaoyun in person.
Soon, lilac and wintersweet came.
Ji Xiaotang and Mrs. Ji Er interrogated the two girls separately, but couldn't say anything. They only said that Ji Xiaoyun and Qin Boyang had a good relationship, and Qin Boyang followed Ji Xiaoyun everywhere. Wang didn't care about anything. Every day, as long as he had good food and drink, he always looked at Ji Xiaoyun with kindness and never said anything.
