Chapter 170: News
Seeing Xie Guang leave, Ji Ji slowly fell soft on the couch.
In the blink of an eye, another night passed.
When the next day arrived, Ji Ji suddenly found that it seemed that the whole Jiankang knew the news of Xie Lang's bad luck, and when she went out in a donkey cart, she could see hanging white flags everywhere, as well as sad music coming from various pavilions.
After walking for a while, Sun Fu's voice came from outside, "Sister-in-law, where are we going?" Sun Fu's voice was very hoarse, he, like Qin Xiaocao and the others, had been in an indescribable sadness and helplessness since Xie Lang's news came.
Hearing Sun Fu's words, Ji Ji said in a low voice: "Let's go to Qingyuan Temple." "This Qingyuan Temple is the place where Ji Ji and Xie Lang fell in love, and somehow, Ji Ji really wants to go there to have a look.
After a while, Sun Fu carried Ji Ji to Qingyuan Temple. Ji Ji stepped off the donkey cart, pulled the yarn hat, and walked towards the temple.
As soon as she came to the boulevard in front of the temple, there was a burst of laughter floating in front of her, and when Ji Ji took a few steps, she saw at a glance Zhang Hezhi, who was talking with several family members there.
Since becoming a woman, Ji Xi's charming roots and bones have been completely excavated, and the whole person has an indescribable charm in her gestures. Zhang Hezhi likes beauties the most, and after hearing the reminder of his companion, he looked back, and just at a glance, he recognized Ji Ji.
At that moment, Zhang Hezhi stood up, he walked up to Ji Ji, and after glancing at her, Zhang Hezhi said softly, "Are you okay?" β
Ji Ji was stunned, and she looked up at him. Nodding and saying in a dumb voice, "It's okay." β
Hearing the hoarseness in her voice, Zhang Hezhi said pityingly: "Take care." In a blink of an eye, he said again: "Then Xie Eighteen really has a deep affection for you, and when he left, he informed us of all the families, and let us take care of you." He smiled, looked Ji Ji up and down, and said in a somewhat graceful manner: "I really didn't expect you to be so enchanting after becoming a woman, just looking at your body makes people feel so excited." If it weren't for Eighteen Lang's words, I would have liked to get close to you! β
Ji Ji ignored his later words, and just whispered, "Thank you for taking care of you." She crossed Zhang Hezhi and walked towards the lake behind the temple.
Look at her back. Zhang Hezhi unfolded his beauty fan on the ground. Seeing that he had been staring at Ji Ji endlessly, a son from a family came over, and he said with a smile: "This is the woman of Xie Eighteen?" Looking at the figure, it is really romantic, but I don't know what the face is? β
Zhang Hezhi snapped and closed the folding fan. said lightly: "Let's go." With that, he turned around.
Ji Ji didn't stand by the lake for long. Soon she turned back again. As soon as I returned to the house. Ji Ji asked people to invite Xie Guang.
Who knows, after Qin Xiaomu came back, he said that he couldn't find Xie Guang. I asked the two Chen Jun Xie clan's subordinates, and I don't know where he went.
Just when Ji Ji pursed her lips and stood motionless in the study, a member of the Xie clan of Chenjun came over, and he said outside the door: "I heard that my sister-in-law is looking for Xie Guanglangjun?" β
Ji Ji replied: "Yes." Where did he go? β
The song replied: "Xie Guanglangjun left Jiankang overnight last night. β
Ji Ji raised her head, and she asked in a deep voice, "Do you know the whereabouts of Eighteen Lang?" β
The song replied, "It would be great if I could know the whereabouts of Eighteen Lang." Now all of you Lang Jun have sent people, all of them want to know Lang Jun's whereabouts as soon as possible. β
Ji Xi pursed her lips, and after a while, she said dumbly: "Once you know the whereabouts of Eighteen Lang, you must tell me as soon as possible!" β
The song immediately responded, "Yes! β
The song turned away, and in this quiet night, listening to his footsteps getting farther and farther away, suddenly, Ji Ji felt a chill on her body.
This night, Ji Ji never fell asleep.
I didn't sleep all night, Ji Ji was very awake again, she took a big turn in the manor, and ran to the east courtyard to stay for a while. Xie Lang left too hastily, there were still his clothes and books in the east courtyard, and even the piano he had stroked in the morning was still in place.
was really panicked, and Ji Ji took a donkey cart out of Jiankang again.
Maybe it was because Xie Lang had said hello, Ji Ji found that no matter where she went to Jiankang, all the people she met, whether they were Haoqiang or the sons of the family, or the royal family, almost all looked at her when they saw her, and then retreated silently. It seems that overnight, Jiankang has become a place of extreme tranquility and ease, not only is there not even a disciple left, but no matter whether she walks in a quiet corner or a prosperous place, there will be neither the scholars who will mock her, nor the strong to challenge her.
Half a month later, the celebrities of Jiankang Guan Album came, accompanied by Chen Taichong, Huang Gong and other world-famous celebrities. In the company of these celebrities, as well as Xie Twenty-nine, Langya Wang Twelve, as well as Lanling Xiao Yi, and Zhang Hezhi of the Zhang family of Wujun and others, Ji Xi completed a grand ceremony of changing the court from a cold family to a family.
This banquet was presided over by Xie Twenty-nine from beginning to end, he led Ji Ji, and everyone sacrificed to the ancestors of the Ji family, and praised the merits of the Ji family to the entire Jiankang people, and then it was the ceremony.
When the ceremony was completed, the servants of the Xie clan of Chenjun poured into all the houses of Ji Ji like water, and they arranged them one by one, the same decoration, and slowly withdrew after making every piece of soil that Ji Ji stepped on elegant and noble.
When the manor was renovated, hundreds of servants from the Xie clan of Chen County slowly left, and at this moment, all the distinguished guests had already dispersed, and only a remnant sun on the horizon shone on the earth.
Xie Twenty-nine wore a crown, he was the last guest to stay, and after presiding over this banquet in place of Ji Ji, he looked very tired. But Rao is like this, this Lang Jun also has a straight waist, and his delicate and cold face is full of pain and warmth when he looks at Ji Ji.
Before getting on the donkey cart, Xie Twenty-nine looked back at Ji Ji and said softly: "When the eighteenth brother left, the only one who couldn't rest assured was you, sister-in-law. Now, your Ji family has become a family, and from now on, your Ji family's name will be recorded on the music records everywhere. In particular, the music disc of Jingzhou will also record the names and deeds of the descendants of the Ji dynasty in detail. This kind of thing cannot be done by others. You'd better send your henchman's servant and let him take his family tree to Jingdi. In addition, although the Ji family is still only a small family, it is no longer a poor family after all, and the cemetery of your ancestors has to be repaired, and the ancestral hall has to be rebuilt. After a pause, Xie Twenty-nine lowered his voice and said, "Brother Eighteen said, let me take care of you for one day." Ji's. Whatever you want in the future, you can tell me. β
After a few more words with Ji Ji. Xie Twenty-nine Lang got in the car and left.
As soon as Xie Twenty-nine Lang walked on the front foot, on the back foot, Ji Ji saw Ji Yuan and Qin Xiaomu rushing over.
Ji Ji looked at the two of them and asked, "What's wrong?" β
Qin Xiaomu ran to Ji Ji. He lowered his voice and said, "Sister-in-law." When everyone was tidying up the manor just now. A hole was found in one of the walls of the study, and there was a painting in it. β
A painting
Ji Ji was startled, and hurriedly followed the two towards the study.
In the study. Sun Fu and the others were also there, and when they saw Ji Ji coming, they retreated one after another.
Ji Ji walked over.
The painting was tightly wrapped in cowhide, and the outside was covered with thick dust, and it seems from Cheng DΓΉ, who was curled in yellow and black cowhide, that the painting had been left for an unknown amount of time. After motioning for everyone to stand back, she gently opened the cowhide scroll, revealing the well-preserved picture scroll inside.
This is a landscape painting, which should be painted standing on the official road, with rolling mountains in front of it, and you can faintly see a flag or something in the mountains.
However, apart from this, there is not even a seal inscription on this painting.
Thinking that her manor was also found from a treasure map, although Ji Ji was confused, she still carefully put away the painting, and finally put it together with the jade pendant given by Xie Lang.
Because there was nothing on the painting, Ji Ji soon left it behind.
β¦β¦
Since the change of court, there have been more invitations sent by major families. However, Ji Ji had no intention of traveling, so she refused one by one.
In the blink of an eye, it has been thirty days since Xie Lang left Jiankang.
From beginning to end, there was no news of Xie Lang from the Xie clan of Chenjun, and gradually, the Jiankang people also forgot about this peerless Lang Juncun, Ji Ji was chatting with people, and someone mentioned him for a long time.
This world is too big, and one person is too small, in Ji Ji's impression, Xie Lang has always been as dazzling as the bright moon, she never thought that one day he would disappear into the sea of people like this, and he couldn't find it.
can't get the news of Xie Lang, Ji Ji's own life has to go on.
Thirty days passed, and her menstrual period, though delayed for several days, still came.
She didn't conceive Xie Lang's child after all.
After becoming a daughter of a family and having absolute security, Ji Ji likes to wander in every corner of Jiankang the most.
However, what she didn't expect was that before, she used to yearn for this kind of freedom, and now when she really had it, she suddenly found that behind this freedom was loneliness.
Yes, it's loneliness.
Jifu has become a family, and the Wang Zhen Liu Chu and even Wendu who used to come and go are not the same, firstly, because there are different men and women, and secondly, because they are from a poor family, and there are so-called shishu who do not sit together. Therefore, although Ji Ji did not have any arrogant attitude, all the children of the poor family who could get closer to Ji Yue before her quietly stayed away from her!
Then, there are the families.
Ji Ji used to have very little contact with those families because she was from a poor family, and now that her father and brother are gone, she is just a daughter. Therefore, except for the occasional one or two families who moved to Jiankang from other places to post to invite Ji Ji, she was actually snubbed in front of the door.
In addition to these people, there were slaves.
In the past, when Xie Lang was there, Ji Ji also thought about recruiting a slave as her husband, but now she has become a daughter of a family, since ancient times, Shishu has not married, and even the rich and powerful of the poor family cannot intermarry with the family, let alone a slave?
In other words, if Ji Ji wants to remarry now, she can only choose from the family. And those families, who would be willing to marry a woman who is broken and has no father and brother to rely on to enter the door as a wife? Not to mention letting those sons of the family come to the door as sons-in-law.
It can be said that Ji Ji, who has finally been freed and finally has the one she wants, will either choose a notorious person from the family for the rest of her life and be willing to sell herself to her family for Ji Ji's beauty and money. Or, like some royal princesses in later generations, they will never marry and keep a few faces in the house.
And if you choose the first item, your reputation will be ruined, and the family will not be able to tolerate it, and it will make the Ji family, which has just become a family, be degraded again. Therefore, if Ji Ji wants to recruit a son-in-law in the future, there is only one choice, that is, to choose a family with a bad reputation and sell her husband under the "financial marriage" transaction.
This is the harsh reality. In the real reality, Ji Ji is still a virgin, as a daughter of a family with no ancestors and no fathers, the marriage she can choose will only be Zhou Yu's kind of son who only considers accommodating out of various interests. And if she insists on choosing a husband to join her, even Zhou Yuna and others will not come, even if she is still a virgin, she can still only choose a notorious son who sells herself to her family.
In the blink of an eye, another month has passed.
In the second month, Ji Ji's life became more and more lonely and lonely. In the manor where she stayed, no one came all day long, although Jiankang City was as lively and prosperous as ever, but this bustling and prosperous had nothing to do with Ji Ji. Sometimes seeing Ji Ji sitting alone by the lotus pond, Qin Xiaocao actually felt as if she had seen her widow-like lonely cold days in the last thirty years from her sister-in-law.
Just when Xie Lang left on the sixty-third day, this night, Ji Ji couldn't sleep all night as usual, and sat in front of the window looking at the moonlight after a while.
Just then, she suddenly heard a sound of footsteps.
The footsteps became more and more urgent and closer, and in the blink of an eye, Ji Ji heard Xie Guang's dumb voice coming over, "Sister-in-law, Lang Jun has news." β
Almost as soon as Xie Guang's voice fell, Ji Ji gasped heavily, she wiped a handful of tears that had fallen out of nowhere, and asked in a deep voice, "Where is he now?" β
Xie Guang hurriedly replied: "Lang Jun has arrived in Guangling County, Xuzhou. β
Guangling County, Xuzhou?
Ji Ji stood up, she got up too quickly, she collapsed and rolled to the ground, in the voice of Qin Xiaocao and Yuehong and others asking in surprise, and getting up in a hurry, Ji Ji slowly sat up.
When the two maids rushed out, they saw Xie Guang at a glance, and hurriedly returned to the wing room to freshen up Ji Ji. What the two maids saw was a radiant and radiant Ji who was sitting there quietly, her eyes were shining like stars, and the whole person was indescribably beautiful.
Seeing the two maids staying in place, Ji Ji frowned and said, "What's wrong?" β
The two maids were in a hurry, Yuehongxin was straightforward, and couldn't help but say happily: "Sister-in-law, you seem to have come to life." Hee-hee, you were laughing every day a while ago, but you looked like a wooden man, but now it's different, and even the appearance of your face is vivid. β
Ji Ji glanced at the two maids and ordered: "Call Sun Fuqin Xiaomu over, tell them, and say that we will go to Xuzhou as soon as the morning dawns!" β
After the order, Ji Ji turned to Xie Guang, who was standing outside the window, and said, "What about your fleet?" Is it already arranged? β
Xie Guang hurriedly said, "The ship has been arranged. β
Ji Ji said: "I want to rush to Xuzhou as soon as possible, you prepare according to this requirement." Meet at the pier on time at dawn, and set off as soon as everyone arrives! β
Xie Guanglang answered, turned around and strode away. (To be continued......)
