Chapter 172: Difficulties (for the March Monthly Pass)

"I am your father, and you are a son, can you talk to me so rebelliously?" Old Lady Ji angrily mentioned Ji Shoucheng, in exchange for him sneering several times, when Old Lady Ji was so angry that he was about to explode, he said with a mocking smile: "Father, father, I am no longer an official in the officialdom, do you think I will still care about the reputation of 'filial son' as much as before?"

I'm so happy that from the day I resigned, I didn't have to worry about your ridiculous behavior out there, whether it would affect my future. My eldest brother and I have already discussed and decided, and in the future, anything you do outside will be handled by me. Of course, I'm here today to discuss with you how to place that old woman you have outside. ”

Old Madam Ji only felt that the chips that had been holding tightly in his hand disappeared more than half of them when he was not paying attention, and there would be no more chance for him to reach out and hold them again. Old lady Ji looked at Ji Shoucheng coldly and said: "You just don't be an official, but you have to be a person outside, if you don't handle my affairs properly, I can make you fail as a person." ”

Ji Shoucheng raised his eyes to look at Old Lady Ji's cold expression, and there was still the kind of smile on his face that had been hanging on his face since he retired. Ji Shoucheng faced such an old lady Ji, after his heart ached, he immediately felt a sense of relief. He looked at Old Lady Ji with a smile and said, "Father, you have served a loving face in Shuzhou City for so many years, and now you can't hold it anymore?"

You can rest assured, I just don't think about your face walking outside, I also have to think about the faces of other people in the Ji family, I will try to paint your things outside to be able to see people. In the past few years, I sometimes think in my heart that my father is old, and his heart is also kind, and as younger generations, we should not dwell on the old things in the past.

But now that you have changed, we know how we can see through the sincerity of an old official like my father who has gone through too many things. Old lady Ji didn't care what Ji Shoucheng thought, he directly ordered: "You take that old woman's business." Settle down quickly, I'll go to the tenth-story building in a few days. ”

Ji Shoucheng looked at the old lady Ji's expression, he didn't have a trace of affection for the old woman outside. There was a look of disgust on his face. Ji Shoucheng's heart calmed down and said, "Father, my eldest brother and I have decided to retire the courtyard we rented near the ten-story building, and you will go to the ten-story building to cultivate the Tao in the future, just live in the Taoist temple." ”

Old Lady Ji's face immediately looked a little bad. He glared and said, "I often live inside the Taoist temple, so I live freely outside." Your brother will go and find me a quiet courtyard so that I can cultivate in peace. Ji Shoucheng looked at Old Lady Ji very carefully for a while, then he shook his head lightly and said, "Father, the eldest brother is getting older, and the handle you can threaten him is getting smaller and smaller."

In recent years, the four nephews have a future, and the eldest brother, he has begun to retreat. Now it's just because of his niece's family affairs, and the eldest brother is still holding his official position. Father. If you push too much, as soon as the eldest brother retreats, the things you enjoy now and the reputation outside will naturally be gone.

Don't want to use your father's name to pinch the third brother, his reputation outside is not very good, and his official position is small, and ordinary people are still too lazy to attack him. Father, what you can do now. is to be your old lady safely, as long as you don't act too much, we will still be filial to you. ”

Ji Shoucheng stood up directly, and for the first time, he looked down at the sitting old lady Ji. The look in his eyes was uncertain, if he could, how much he hoped that his father could return to the simple little official he had been more than twenty years ago, and the family would live happily in one place. The yard was not big, but the laughter in the yard was loud.

"Father, since you are ruthless to that old woman. Then the follow-up, I will do my best to deal with it. It's just that if the family really wants to be entangled, you still need your father to face it in the end, after all, this is something you provoked, and you still have to give a clear explanation to others in person. ”

Old lady Ji pointed at Ji Guocheng to the door of the courtyard and said, "Go quickly, unfilial son, if you can't even do this little thing, don't think about expecting me to go out and lose the old ugly." Ji Shoucheng strode outside, he went out of the courtyard gate, and he heard the sound of breaking teacups inside, and then heard the sound of Ji Baohua coming out.

Ji Shoucheng never paused, no matter how capable Ji Baohua was, she couldn't disturb any big movements as a little woman. Ji Shoucheng went to the academy to find Ji Shouye, and after telling him about it, he sighed and said, "Big brother, I thought that my father was old and could slowly change back to our father when we were young, but I didn't expect that today I know that he will never be able to change back." ”

Ji Shouye looked at him and said lightly: "He gave birth to us once, and we will do our filial piety well, and no matter how much we are entangled in the things next to us, we can only embarrass ourselves." The matter between him and the old woman was dealt with earlier, and as long as the family was not too greedy, they settled the matter privately. If you are too greedy, then go directly to the official mansion to speak.

We can't let people use our fathers to speak again and again, and our generation is in charge of our generation's affairs, and we can't implicate the next generation. "Ji Shouye and Ji Shoucheng's brothers have seen it, after the old lady Ji has been meditating on cultivation in the past few years, most of his body has recovered, and he should be able to surpass the longevity of their grandfather and grandmother.

This night, the candles in the academy were not lit for too long, and the candles in the courtyard of the master of the first garden were also not lit for too long. Only in the room of Ji Shoucheng in the second garden, the candle flame was lit for a long time. Since Ji Shoucheng looked down on the profession of strategist, he has the qualifications to serve in the officialdom, and after some things, his character is not bad, and the number of people who come to invite him and discuss things has naturally increased.

In just a few days, the life of Eryuan has reached a new level. Ning's fierce opposition has changed to such tacit support now. The atmosphere in the second garden has become better, Ji Shouye also feels old, he was not a serious person for those concubines, but now that there are more things, he has inadvertently faded down, and the second garden has a rare calm atmosphere.

On the last day of May, Ji Anning heard the latest news, Old Lady Ji went out of the big courtyard gate, and he went to the ten-story Taoist Temple to live and cultivate. Ji Anning curiously inquired about the situation with Ji Jieyue, and when she saw her, she also had a puzzled expression, and the eyes of the two looked at the women serving beside them at the same time.

Both of them knew that they couldn't hear any bad news from Ji Anyu and Ji Jieqing's mouths, and they had long since moved their minds to investigate. The woman next to Ji Jieyue looked at the two little women with a look of embarrassment, and they were embarrassed to pester her to inquire about the news. (To be continued.) )
