Chapter 22: Pretending to be weak
"Grandmother, don't be angry, beware of your own body, if you are angry, what should you do if you are angry? The eldest sister must also want her grandmother to be happy, so you can forgive the eldest sister this time for the sake of filial piety in everything that the eldest sister does on weekdays. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Nianyan didn't want to see her grandmother angry, and she didn't want her eldest sister to be punished for this matter. ”
Ji Nianyan's little face was full of worry, holding Li's hand, he was about to kneel, asked Li to pull, and stood beside Li again.
Tsk, if Ji Nianjin hadn't seen it with her own eyes, it would be really hard to believe that she, the fourth sister, was actually an actor who could act, this expression of worry, worry, and disappointment really made people can't help but sigh when they look at it.
And Ji Nianxue, who was kneeling, raised her head sharply and stared at Ji Nianyan, as if she had thought of something, with a look of shock and disbelief on her face.
Ji Nianjin sneered in her heart, Ji Nianyan thought that she would be able to gain a good reputation by defending Ji Nianxue for a few words, but unfortunately, Ji Nianxue was too "smart".
Ji Nianxue looked like this, it was clear that she had begun to suspect that all this was done by Ji Nianyan, and the doubts in her eyes began to slowly decrease by one point every time Ji Nianyan defended her, until in the end, there was only affirmation and anger left in her eyes.
Li patted Ji Nianyan's hand, signaled her not to worry, and then looked at Ji Nianjin and asked:
"Jin'er, do you know these rumors in the house?"
Li Shi looked at Ji Nianjin so straightly, his eyebrows were furrowed, his face was serious, and the faint anger couldn't be suppressed, as if Ji Nianjin would immediately start a fire if he hesitated a little.
Although Ji Nianjin knelt, she straightened up and nodded without hesitation.
"Grandmother, Jin'er only heard about it today. There is a third-class maid in my yard, who is the son of the house, and her sister is on an errand in the eldest sister's Tingxue Pavilion. The maid said that it was her sister who came home and said it, and said that her sister was not the only one who knew about it, and it was almost rumored in this Hou Mansion.
Grandmother, did Jin'er do something wrong, why did Jin'er not lend it to the eldest sister this time, it was said that Jin'er was stingy and mean, but when she went back to the eldest sister to borrow things before, Jin'er borrowed it.
Jin'er didn't believe that these were all said by the eldest sister, and thought that she would apologize to the eldest sister today, but hearing those rumors really made Jin'er sad.
Grandmother, are those words all nonsense from the subordinates?
If I had known this, I would have given up that beloved interstitial screen, and I didn't want someone to arrange myself like this! ”
The reason why Ji Nianjin would involve the maids in her yard was because she needed to borrow Li's hand to replace the maids and wives in the hibiscus courtyard who only knew that they were blindly spreading rumors, although the girl was kind, but her actions were inappropriate.
A girl who heard the rumors that her master was not good, she didn't want to help hide it, but she was bent on saying these things as lively, although there was no malice, and she said it in the hibiscus courtyard, but Ji Nianjin didn't need such an ignorant maid.
As soon as the girl heard this from her sister, she would come back as soon as possible and tell Bai Lan or Bai Zhi, and Ji Nianjin would treat her preferentially.
Do things in a measured way, have brains, and don't follow the trend, this is the maid that Ji Nianjin needs.
In this regard, Angelica Angelica and Bai Lan have done a good job.
Another point is that Ji Nianjin deliberately leaked her mouth, and said that Ji Nianxue always liked to "borrow" things from her before, also in order to take eye medicine in front of Li, since she wanted to pretend to be weak, it would be more thorough.
Ji Nianxue didn't know whether to hate Ji Nianjin's straightforwardness, or whether to love Ji Nianjin's straightforwardness, everyone in this Yaoxi Hall, it seemed that except for Ji Nianjin, no one else believed her, only Ji Nianjin had a weak posture, with wide eyes and watery eyes.
But Ji Nianjin is too straightforward.
"Second sister, you mean to say that this is not the first time that the eldest sister has asked you to borrow something. But how so? The second uncle loves the eldest sister very much, compared to the third sister and the fifth sister, the eldest sister is also the second uncle's daughter, and all the girls in the Hou Mansion have the same degree of food and clothing, which is also the grace of the grandmother, why does the eldest sister still ask you to borrow something? I just don't believe in this one thing. ”
Ji Nianyan pretended to be puzzled, but Ji Nianjin snorted coldly in her heart.
Ji Nianyan is pretending to be a good person in front of the Li family, she never believes that Ji Nianyan doesn't know that Ji Nianxue often asks her to "borrow" things.
Not only did they do it, but they did it thoroughly, but they came here today and that tomorrow, as if they had agreed, that is, they wanted her to make a fool of herself and even see that she was aggrieved and unwilling but didn't dare to say it.
In this Hou Mansion, the girls in the second and third rooms are like a family, only the girls in the big room are outsiders, and they are unanimously excluded.
These are all facts that happened in her past life and in this life before she was born again.
"Fourth sister, I didn't tell a lie, the maids and women in the hibiscus courtyard can prove it, and those foreign things are meant to be used for people, the eldest sister needs it, which means that the eldest sister can communicate with me, I am very happy, and it is impossible to blame the eldest sister, fourth sister, if you also come, I am also welcome."
Ji Nianjin hurriedly distinguished, and wanted to cry even more aggrieved in the face of the Li family.
She looks like this, and she looks like a brainless person, and she can't hear the ridicule in Ji Nianyan's words.
Ji Nianyan even showed a mockery, Ji Nianjin was like this, she was the most disdainful.
But what Ji Nianjin wants is this effect, she wants to play the image of a cowardly girl in a big house with a simple mind and a brain that will not turn in front of the Li family.
Only in this way will the Li family not suspect her and will not guard against her.
"Okay, isn't that messy enough?
Li slammed the Yuguo Azure Cup, which had already drunk more than half of the tea, on the small table next to him, and the force was so great that it startled everyone present.
"Grandmother, Nian Yan knows that she is wrong, even if it is true as the second sister said, the eldest sister should be playing with the second sister, Nian Yan shouldn't be so serious."
Ji Nianyan also knelt down, but his knee should not have touched the ground, so he asked Li Shi to pull up.
"Yan'er, grandmother didn't say you, you are a good one, the most worry-free."
The Li family defended Ji Nianyan in public, and it was not strange for Ji Nianjin to see it, but Ji Nianxue, who was also quite liked by the Li family, could not hide the resentment in his heart.
"Grandmother, Nian Xue hasn't done it, someone must want to provoke the relationship between me and my second sister, grandmother, you must give Nian Xue justice."
Ji Nianxue pleaded, she couldn't see a trace of the past love on Li's face, and the coldness in Li's eyes made Ji Nianxue panic.
