Chapter 164: There is a Beginning
Three more, rolling for pink.
……
After trying the bow and arrow, Second Master Ji didn't say anything more, just asked Ji Xiaotang to hide the bow well.
And all the people came to Mrs. Ji's house again.
Mu Jiahao saw Changsheng and liked it very much, seeing that he was holding Changsheng and looked like him, he was very careful.
"When Xiaojie was young, I used to hold it." Mu Jiahao explained.
Like Mu Hong, Mu Jiahao's temperament is also coarse and fine.
Mrs. Ji Er had a lot to say to Mu Jiahao, but she did not forget that there was one more important matter.
"I'll take you to meet the old lady. Xiaoyun was also with the old lady. "Second Mrs. Ji said to Mu Jiahao.
Qi Younian came to the door for the first time, and he should go to Mrs. Ji to say hello.
Mrs. Ji handed over the immortal life to the nurse, and everyone went to Mrs. Ji's yard.
Mrs. Ji had already received a report and knew that there were guests at home. In addition to the brother of Mrs. Ji, there is also Lord Qi Qianhu of Ren'an Mansion. Therefore, when everyone walked into the upper room, they saw that Mrs. Ji had already put on her big clothes for hospitality and was sitting on the kang.
Ji Xiaoyun was also dressed as a guest, and when she saw everyone coming into the house, she stood up in a hurry.
Second Master Ji and Second Mrs. Ji first took Mu Jiahao to salute Mrs. Ji, and Mrs. Ji nodded reservedly, although she was not close, and she looked a little cold, but she didn't put on a face.
“…… At that time, your sister married in, and you were still young. Old Mrs. Ji looked at Mu Jiahao and said.
Then Qi Younian stepped forward to salute.
Mrs. Ji treated Qi Younian a little more solemnly.
Qi Younian did the same thing to Mrs. Ji as a junior. Not only is it respectful, but it also seems very kind.
Mrs. Ji has a good impression of Qi Younian. He saw that Qi You was old and young, so he asked Qi Younian's age. When I knew that Qi Younian was the same age as Master Ji San. Mrs. Ji was a little emotional.
“…… A table of talents, young and old. "Knowing that Qi Younian has a good personal relationship with Master Ji San, Mrs. Ji is also happy. Although she doted on Master Ji San, she also knew in her heart that in the past, Master Ji San used to come and go with people who relied on the money of his ancestors to eat, drink and have fun, and now Master Ji San can associate with a promising peer like Qi Younian, which is a good thing.
Ji Xiaoyun also met Mu Jiahao, while looking at Mrs. Ji's face. The mosquito called Mu Jiahao's second uncle as if he was screaming, and this uncle seemed to be a little reluctant.
But Mu Jiahao didn't care much at all. He was very happy to see Ji Xiaoyun. Ji Xiaoyun was raised by Mrs. Ji's side, and her temperament was different from Ji Xiaotang's hatred, which the Mu family had known for a long time. They all think that Ji Xiaoyun is like this. On the one hand, it is due to temperament. On the one hand, it is because of Mrs. Ji.
This granddaughter of her own family is still excellent.
Mrs. Ji also said a few polite words, asked Mrs. Ji to prepare the banquet, and said that she would let Mu Jiahao stay for two more days.
Mu Jiahao said that he still had errands on his body and couldn't stay for a long time.
Mrs. Ji is just that.
The kitchen had already prepared a first-class table, and Mrs. Ji said that she was old and lacking in energy and could not accompany the guests. Naturally, the crowd would not say anything. came out of Mrs. Ji's house.
The banquet for Mu Jiahao and Qi Younian was placed in the courtyard of Mrs. Ji.
Originally, Qi Younian was a foreigner. However, he and the Mu family are good friends, and he once saved Ji Xiaotang and Ji San, so Mrs. Ji did not avoid it.
Ji Xiaotang also followed Mrs. Ji to the table.
Mrs. Ji also sent someone to call Ji Xiaoyun. Ji Xiaoyun didn't come, but only sent the little girl over to say that she wanted to accompany the old lady.
Second Mrs. Ji found that Ji Xiaoyun was not close to her uncle, so she was not very comfortable. Fortunately, Ji Xiaotang was persuaded by his side, and no matter what, today's joy greatly exceeded this uncomfortable.
After the banquet, tea was served, and Mrs. Ji pulled Mu Jiahao to speak.
Master Ji San and Ji Xiaotang took Qi You to visit Ruyi Garden.
"In autumn, the persimmons in the garden are all red, and it is beautiful." Master Ji San introduced the scenery in the garden to Qi Younian, and laughed at himself, "I don't know what my ancestors think, there are some strange flowers and trees planted in people's homes, and our garden is like an orchard." I heard that he doesn't like persimmons very much. ”
When the Ji family moved to Qingyuan, they were very willing to spend money in all aspects. The Ruyi Garden is like this, and naturally it is not for the sake of saving silver.
"I think it's unique, obviously the old man is not a layman." Qi Younian said.
"It's not a layman, haha." Master Ji San smiled, "But this persimmon is really delicious, and when it comes to winter, it will be frozen outside and become a frozen persimmon, which is another taste." This year, I'll send you two cars to try. ”
"Okay." Qi Younian responded with a smile.
Walking to a gazebo, the three of them went in to sit temporarily, and a little girl brought refreshments.
Ji Xiaotang got the bow, but he didn't have a chance to thank Qi Younian properly, and when he saw the little girl coming to deliver tea, he poured the tea himself and thanked Qi Younian.
In this meeting, Ji Xiaotang and Qi Younian didn't have a chance to talk well, let alone talk in private.
Qi Younian thought about Ji Er's attitude, and knew that this time he had no chance at all. If you have anything to say, you can only say it in front of Master Ji San.
"Xiaotang doesn't have to be polite. If you use this bow with your hand, I'll be relieved. Qi Younian said hurriedly. He looked at Ji Xiaotang, and there seemed to be many other words in his eyes, but it was not easy to say it.
"Ayo, there's no one else here at the moment. You tell you the truth, is the bow given to Xiaotang really from Master He Yong?" Master Ji San suddenly asked.
Qi Younian groaned slightly, and actually nodded.
"Really?" Master Ji San was surprised, "You kid, you can't hide it!" Tell me quickly, what are you from, why do you have such a big face, can you invite Master He Yong? ”
Second Master Ji turned around and still asked a question that was still not easy to ask, but here Master Ji San, he asked it directly.
The two have different temperaments, and Master Ji San really didn't treat Qi Younian as an outsider.
Qi Younian didn't answer immediately. Instead, he looked at Ji Xiaotang.
Although it was Master Ji San who asked the question, Qi Younian's answer was for Ji Xiaotang.
Ji Xiaotang's face also showed a look of surprise, seeing Qi Younian looking at her. But she didn't speak. Qi Younian gave her this bow, and she was very grateful and happy. As for anything else, if Qi Younian didn't want to say it, then she wouldn't ask.
"It's not my face." Qi Younian smiled at this time, "It's my father." Master He Yong owes my father a favor, and this bow is to repay this favor. ”
"How did Master He Yong owe Ling Zun a favor?" Master Ji San asked again.
"This. I don't know. It must have been in the early years, maybe before I was born. Qi Younian said. He wasn't lying, he just didn't want to say more.
Qi Younian said. Master Ji San suddenly understood. He is the youngest son and the eldest son in the family. Old Mrs. Ji and many things about the Ji family, Master Ji and Second Master Ji knew, but he didn't know.
"Good!" Master Ji San nodded, but the meaning of what he said was unclear.
"About the bandits. What clues have been found? Ji Xiaotang asked the question she was most concerned about.
Qi Younian nodded.
"Is there really a clue?" Ji Xiaotang is a joy.
"I found some clues. This time it's out. It is also to follow up the clues. According to Qi Younian, he got a tip and found traces of mountain bandits somewhere.
As for the authenticity and actual value of this clue, it still needs to be verified.
"Who are these guys, so cunning?" Master Ji San frowned, "It stands to reason that once they have action, you will be able to know." Unless they don't move all the time. ”
"But how could they not move all the time? If it doesn't move. What do they eat and drink? ”
That's the crux of the matter.
Ji Xiaotang glanced at Qi Younian and knew it. Qi Younian thought the same as she thought.
The so-called mountain bandits are by no means ordinary mountain bandits.
"I'm going to keep going of it, two years at most." Qi Younian saw the worry in Ji Xiaotang's expression, so he spoke again.
Two years ......, if Qi Younian can really dig out the roots of the mountain bandits in two years, then many things can be solved.
"If you let this mountain bandit go, I'm afraid that there will be endless disasters. Ayo, it's still the same sentence. This matter, count us in one. What do you want us to do, give money, people, you just ask. Ji Xiaotang said.
Ji Xiaotang invested in the fleet of ships that went to sea for trade, and wanted to make money, not for hoarding, but for expenses.
"Okay." Qi Younian was also happy, so he nodded and said yes.
Master Ji San liked this attitude, and he happily said yes.
"If there is anything like Wanjia Village, you must not forget me. I have a bunch of people here, and I'm about to pull them out to practice. Master Ji San leaned into Qi Younian's ear and whispered.
Qi Younian smiled and said nothing.
Although Master Ji San lowered his voice, he was still listened to by Ji Xiaotang. Ji Xiaotang immediately guessed what Master Ji San was talking about.
"Uncle!" Ji Xiaotang's tone was full of disapproval.
Master Ji San laughed and lowered his head to drink tea.
"It's almost hour, it's time for me to go." Qi Younian said, although he said this, he didn't get up immediately, but turned to Ji Xiaotang and carefully said how the bow and arrow should usually be**.
Ji Xiaotang naturally listened carefully, and asked from time to time.
The two sat opposite each other, both very serious.
Master Ji San was just watching from the side, and he didn't say anything. I don't know why, he just feels that the picture in front of him is not only natural, but also very beautiful.
Master Ji San once again confirmed that he likes Qi Younian as a person, and he also likes Qi Younian to be with Ji Xiaotang.
"Hmm......" Master Ji San was slightly distracted, did he want to do something.
Qi Younian said the method of bow and arrow**, and Ji Xiaotang also wrote it down carefully, and Qi Younian got up.
Before they could go out, a little girl came briskly to report.
"Lord Zhixian is here!"
