Even though Qin Zhen’s mother is Empress Dowager Han’s cousin, Empress Dowager Han often looks to Qin Zhen, but that is just superficial. Where can there be any real friendship in the imperial family, especially for women like Empress Dowager Han.

Empress Dowager Han didn't want Qin Zhen to get Ji Xiaotang. At the same time, she didn't want Qin Lin to get her. Empress Dowager Han's original intention was to let Ji Xiaotang enter the palace and be a concubine for Emperor Longqing.

However, Qin Zhen and Qin Lin went to the palace to seek an order to marry each other. However, Empress Dowager Han did not refuse completely, but had an ambiguous attitude.

Ji Xiaotang can already imagine that Empress Dowager Han wants to maximize her role.

Empress Dowager Han wants to use her to take advantage of this situation, and she can also use Empress Dowager Han in turn to achieve her own goals.

Because he had thought of this for a long time, Ji Xiaotang did not stop Qin Zhen from visiting frequently and accepted Qin Lin's orchid so happily.

The three of them talked until late, and Qin Zhen did not stay for dinner this time. He was so busy.

Ji Xiaotang took Changsheng and accompanied Ji Xiaoyun to dinner with Mrs. Ji.

Old Mrs. Ji was sitting on the couch, with Ji Xiaoyun sitting on her left hand, Ji Xiaotang took Changsheng to sit on Old Mrs. Ji's right hand, and the girls arranged the food like flowing water, with a few of them, and there were also filial piety sent from each room.

Mr. Ji Er and Mrs. Ji Er gave a bowl of steamed elbows of Jinhua ham, which was soft and delicious and not greasy. This was what Mrs. Ji liked to eat, so I kept it. There was also a plate of fried toon sprouts from Ji Xiaomu and Yang. The dish was light and Mrs. Ji also stayed it.

Someone also sent the filial piety of Master Ji and Mrs. Ji, but it was a plate of saffron pigeon made with tonics such as Korean ginseng.

Old Mrs. Ji also likes to eat pigeons, but she never looked down on the things given by Mr. Ji and Mrs. Ji. When she was happy, she would give them to the people who served her. When she was unhappy, she would simply beat someone and send them back.

Today, because she remembered what Mrs. Ji and Ji Xiaolian said, Old Mrs. Ji was not very happy. She asked the person to take the pigeon back as it was.

"Tell the master and the eldest wife that I am old and can't stand these hot and nourishing things, so let them keep them for themselves." Old Mrs. Ji said coldly.

This is not to give face to Mr. Ji and Mrs. Ji. The person who delivered the food knew Mrs. Ji's temper and did not dare to explain that the tonic for making pigeons was different from ginseng. Although it nourished the body, it was not a big hit.

Old Mrs. Ji also ate some Korean ginseng, and she once praised her and said she was good at eating it.

Old Mrs. Ji is so good at doing things, even those who serve Qian Huatang are used to it.

Ji Xiaotang watched from the side, but didn't say anything. She accompanied Mrs. Ji for dinner. The serving people took the meal down and brought the oolong tea that Qin Zhen had sent. Ji Xiaotang took Changsheng to sit on the couch and talked with Mrs. Ji.

"The eldest brother and sister-in-law now send Xiaojing to every meal?" Ji Xiaotang asked.

Old Mrs. Ji nodded.

With her personality, it is not uncommon to take off her anger. For example, she doesn't like Mrs. Ji, and is both indifferent to Ji Xiaolian, Ji Xiaoxue and Ji Xiaoqin, but she is still a little sincerely happy about Ji Xiaomu and Yang.

Ji Xiaomu is the only grandson who followed Master Ji to Qingyuan to show filial piety to Mr. Ji. Although Yang is Mrs. Ji's niece, he is obviously not the same as Mrs. Ji.

"Xiaomu's child is the seed of our Ji family. Originally, when your grandfather was there, he liked him very much. Xiaomu's wife was also a honest child, but she was a little stupid when she was studying." Old Mrs. Ji commented to Ji Xiaotang, "They are still filial, but they were taken away by others since childhood."

Ji Xiaotang thought for a while and called the wife of the manager to come and asked her what kind of filial piety dishes Mr. Ji and Mrs. Ji had delivered these days, and then asked Ji Xiaomu and Yang.

This wife in charge was chosen by Ji Xiaotang for Old Mrs. Ji. She has no choice but to be smart and capable, and her memory is amazing. She remembers the filial piety dishes delivered to her in the two yards in recent days.

Even so, the wife in charge took out a booklet.

"Any filial piety over there, whether it is filial food or anything else, is recorded one by one."

This is Ji Xiaotang's behavior. It turns out that Old Lady Ji does not have it. This wife in charge is in charge of the affairs, so she follows Ji Xiaotang's old example.

"She is very meticulous." Old Mrs. Ji praised her wife in charge. Although she was a little dissatisfied with this approach, she had to say that since her wife in charge came to her, the affairs in her yard have been much more rigorous than before.

Ji Xiaotang followed the accounts recorded by the supervisor's wife. Qianhuatang and Fanghuatang not only gave filial piety dishes, but also sent a lot of supplements these days. In addition, Qianhuatang also sent a lot of rulers the day before yesterday.

From Mrs. Ji to Ji Xiaotang, all of them have already made clothes for the new season. These rulers are extra, saying that they are for Mrs. Ji, and they ask her to make clothes for her and her juniors at will.

All the food, clothing, housing and transportation in the East Road Court paid for her own money, but she had to say something to Mrs. Ji, that she was not stingy in terms of money.

If you can't do this, Mrs. Ji would have a narrow vision. She really didn't come from the Pavilion Master's Mansion. Moreover, the East Road Courtyard has never lost money to Mr. Ji and Mrs. Ji.

Benefit but not expensive is something that everyone sees good things.

Ji Xiaotang read all the records and asked his wife a few more questions.

The wife in charge answered one by one.

Mrs. Ji divided some of those rulers to the three Yao family members, and the rest were piled up in the warehouse. As for the filial piety dishes sent, they were just like Ji Xiaotang saw it just now.

The old lady Ji would not move a single chopstick from Qianhuatang. Instead, it was sent by Ji Xiaomu and Yang from Fanghuatang. Old lady Ji would eat some of it.

"I usually only say that she is stupid. Xiaomu is a man's family and doesn't care about these things. Who would have thought that she was a kind person?" All the filial piety dishes sent by Mrs. Yang were in line with the wishes of Mrs. Ji.

Not to mention that Old Mrs. Ji thought so, Ji Xiaotang was also a little surprised.

Yang's intelligence is not about these things. If it were Mrs. Ji, it would be possible.

Ji Xiaotang sat there, looking at the records in his hand, and remembered Ji Xiaolian's performance in Prince Su's Mansion today. Changsheng sat next to Ji Xiaotang, raised his head and talked to Ji Xiaotang. Seeing that Ji Xiaotang ignored him for a long time, he raised his hand and pulled Ji Xiaotang's sleeve.

"Sister..." Changsheng now calls Ji Xiaotang a sister. Ji Xiaoyun is called sister, Ji Xiaolian and Ji Xiaoqin are the eldest and fourth sisters.

Ji Xiaotang came to his senses and asked Changsheng to wait, then lowered his voice and ordered his wife to take charge of the affairs.

The wife in charge was surprised and even showed some of her face. However, she quickly calmed down and agreed.

"Please rest assured by the county lord."

"I don't worry if you are by my grandmother."

After instructing his wife in charge, Ji Xiaotang lowered his head to see Changsheng.

It turned out that Changsheng had a chart in his hand, and was just discussing with Mrs. Ji enthusiastically where his uncle should be. Mrs. Ji had never seen the chart before? Changsheng also knew everything about the coastal prefectures and islands in the far and near seas. Old Mrs. Ji thought his grandson was really a genius.

Because Xiaotian couldn't answer a question, he asked his sister for help.

Ji Xiaotang couldn't help laughing after hearing Changsheng's words.

Changsheng is about learning and selling.

"This is Java Island. The last time our uncle killed a pirate here..." Ji Xiaotang told Changsheng, and also told Old Lady Ji.

"If you have anything to do in the future, I won't ask anyone else, just ask me this good grandson. My good grandson must be a Grand Secretary." Old Mrs. Ji stroked Changsheng's head and narrowed her eyes with a smile.

Everyone laughed, but they didn't take Old Mrs. Ji's words to heart. At this time, who would have thought that one day, Old Mrs. Ji's words would become true!

Mr. Ji Er and Mrs. Ji Er also came from Jing Huatang at this time and were very satisfied when they saw the happy scenes of their grandparents and grandchildren.

The lights are ten, and the yards of Xinhua Hall are brightly lit.

In the room of Mrs. Ji in Qianhua Hall, Mrs. Ji, Mrs. Ji Xiaomu, sisters Ji Xiaolian, and Yang were all here. Aunt Xiao stood at Mrs. Ji and handed the scarves and handed them with the maids, peeled the fruits, and served Mrs. Ji and Mrs. Ji with their eyebrows.

"The pigeon that the master ordered personally was returned by the old lady." Mrs. Ji took a sip of fragrant tea and said slowly.

"The old lady doesn't like it, so I'll change it to something else tomorrow. Whether the old lady accepts it or not, it depends on the old lady's love. Our filial piety cannot be discounted." Master Ji said seriously.

These words are answering Mrs. Ji, and also giving me the meaning of teaching Ji Xiaomu and others.
