"It's nothing." Ji Xiaotang hurriedly waved his hand gently, "This book is not an ancestral heirloom, but my grandfather bought it by chance." ”

Ji Xiaotang told Qi Younian that Master Ji Er and Mrs. Ji are both people who love books and like to collect books. Nowadays, many new books come out every year, some are privately engraved, some are officially engraved, and Master Ji Er will buy them and pick out the good ones to treasure.

The treatment of ordinary books is already like this, if you encounter such ancient books and rare books, you are willing to spend thousands of dollars.

"My family started collecting books in the library from the time of my great-grandfather. It's just that if you are willing to work hard and spend money, you can accumulate faster. When Ji Xiaotang said this, he smiled at Qi Younian.

"I want to say that it was passed down from my ancestors, but I can't lie to Ayou. Ayou, you may not know that although my family in Qingyuan can be called a scholarly family now, my ancestors are illiterate, and then the world is chaotic, and my ancestors can't leave home to make a living, so they earned some family money. ”

The Ji family only started to be an official from Mrs. Ji, and it was only because of the father and son that they became famous, and they had the momentum they have today.

"I see." Qi Younian also knew the origin of the Ji family, but listening to Ji Xiaotang himself, it was a different feeling. "This book is very rare, and I have seen some fragments, but I am afraid that this one is unique today. Good luck old lady. ”

"It's so rare!" Ji Xiaotang saw that Qi Younian said so solemnly, so he groaned slightly, "Putting it in my house like this buried it, and none of us read it properly." It's just a put-away. The so-called sword gift to the hero. Ayou, since you like it, I'll go back and tell my father. I'll give it to you. ”

Qi Younian resigned.

"However, if you have the opportunity to take a look, it will be enough."

"That's too easy." Ji Xiaotang immediately agreed with a smile.

After talking to Ji Xiaotang, the faint sullenness in Qi Younian's heart has disappeared. Seeing Ji Xiaotang smiling at Yan Yan, he was slightly distracted.

Ji Xiaotang was very frank with him, and told him all about the Ji family's family affairs. At least what she knew, she sued him. And yet in this matter. He is not as calm as Ji Xiaotang.

Qi Younian didn't want to hide his family background from Ji Xiaotang, but he couldn't go against the family motto.

As long as the time comes, I will confess to Xiaotang. Qi Younian thought silently in his heart. When the time comes, he will say his bitterness, Ji Xiaotang has always been cheerful, and he shouldn't really mind.

Thinking so much in his heart, Qi Younian couldn't help but think of Second Master Ji. There are some things that can be hidden from Ji Xiaotang for the time being. But he may not be able to hide it from Master Ji.

The splendor of Tangtang. Second Master Ji not only saw his intentions for Ji Xiaotang, but he was afraid that he also suspected his identity.

Then, his identity won't be hidden for long...... and it's time to write home again.

The two of them were talking, and the time flew by, and just after noon, the two of them picked up the third master who appeared on the scene and went back to the Mu Mansion together.

Just like the previous exams, the time for Master Ji San to hand in the papers is still neither early nor late. Take the golden mean. Ji Xiaotang quietly asked Master Ji San about the exam again, and Master Ji San nodded lightly to Ji Xiaotang. There is joy on the face.

Ji Xiaotang's heart relaxed.

The results of the township test were soon announced, and when the messenger of the good news came to the door beating gongs and drums, the Mu family was jubilant again.

Ji San Lao Ye Township won the 29th lifter, and this time Ren'anfu Township test, a total of 35 lifters. Master Ji San's ranking is not only not conspicuous at all, but also a little behind, but this is exactly what Ji Xiaotang and Master Ji San want.

Master Ji San is not a genius, and he does not plan to move closer to the identity of a genius in the future.

At the celebration banquet held in the Mu Mansion, Mu Hong asked Master Ji San if he would participate in next year's examination.

Master Ji San said very simply that he would not.

"A person who lifts people can be regarded as worthy of his ancestors, and he has not embarrassed my father and brothers."

"It's already great to lift people, with the uncle's family background, it is not difficult to make up for the uncle's shortcomings." Qi Younian said.

Master Ji San waved his hand to explain that not only did he not have a long-term hobby for reading, but he also had no interest in being an official at all.

"You gave birth to the wrong family, if you were in my house and followed me to practice martial arts early, you would be at least a hundred households now." Muhon said, sipping his wine.

Shen glared at Mu Hong, thinking that he was not shy about speaking, and apologized to Master Ji San, saying that Mu Hong was a big boss and asked Master Ji San not to take it to heart.

What kind of person Mu Hong is, Master Ji San already knows it very well, and he himself is a little informal, so he naturally doesn't care.

is celebrating here, Ji Xiaotang had already sent a text message to his home as soon as he received the good news, and Ji Er's reply came soon.

Second Master Ji, who was going to come to pick them up in person, couldn't come, because he really couldn't get out.

Ji Er did not explain the details in the letter, but Ji Xiaotang saw the letter and immediately returned to his heart like an arrow.

The two uncles and nephews came to Mu Hong and Shen to resign.

Mu Hong and Shen were naturally reluctant. Ji Xiaotang had no choice but to take out the letter from Second Master Ji. Mu Hong and the Shen clan stopped keeping them.

"What's going on at home?" The Shen family was very worried, mainly because they were afraid that there would be something wrong with Second Mrs. Ji and Changsheng.

"My grandfather and grandmother don't have to worry too much, it shouldn't be a family matter, otherwise my father wouldn't have made it clear in the letter." The vagueness that Master Ji said in the letter means that although it is not the Ji family that has happened, something must have happened, and it is closely related to the Ji family.

"Xiaotang, if you go back, write back immediately, otherwise your grandfather and I really can't rest assured." Shen took Ji Xiaotang's hand and instructed.

Ji Xiaotang nodded naturally.

This time, it was Qi Younian and Mu Jiahao who led the people to send Ji Xiaotang and Ji San, and sent the two all the way through Mujiazhai before the two sides separated. In fact, since their uncle and nephew were in distress, there has been no trace of bandits in Mujiazhai. But Mu Hong and Qi Younian still have to come here every time to pick them up, and Ji Xiaotang has never objected.

Something. Although everyone didn't say it, they all knew it in their hearts.

When Ji Xiaotang and Master Ji San entered Qingyuan County and came to the gate of Ji's house. I saw that there were lights at the door of Ji's house. As soon as Master Ji San got off the horse, someone who came up smartly came forward to ask An Daoxi.

Master Ji San was also happy, and immediately said praise.

When the uncle and nephew returned, the Ji family was immediately overjoyed, and everyone gathered in Mrs. Ji's room to talk.

Mrs. Ji's previous illness had been completely cured, and she was sitting on the kang at this time, almost with "My son is fighting for qi" written on her face. She took Master Ji San by her side and kept asking him about the situation in Fucheng.

Master Ji San naturally said yes.

"Xiaotang and I have been away these days, and our family is fine." Master Ji San asked.

Mrs. Ji hesitated. A shadow flashed across his face, but he said it all in the end.

"What's the matter, the old lady can't say?" Master Ji San immediately asked.

Old Lady Ji's face was a little embarrassed.

"Let's be happy and say what he does. Let's not talk about him yet. Mrs. Ji said.

Second Master Ji gave Third Master Ji and Ji Xiaotang a look on the side. Tell both of them to stop asking.

"The old lady is right." Second Master Ji said, "Your uncles and nephews hurriedly went to wash up, changed their clothes, and the family has prepared a banquet, and they are about to pick up the wind and wash the dust for you." ”

"Listen to your second brother, you should be hungry when you go this way." Mrs. Ji said.

Master Ji San and Ji Xiaotang really didn't ask anymore, and they both went to wash and change their clothes.

The reception banquet for the uncle and nephew was placed in Mrs. Ji's house. Mrs. Ji let Master Ji San sit on her left hand. wanted Ji Xiaotang to sit next to her right again, but saw Ji Xiaoyun at a glance. She changed her mind.

"Xiaotang go and sit next to your mother, you go these days, your mother misses you." Mrs. Ji said to Ji Xiaotang, and asked Ji Xiaoyun to sit beside her.

Ji Xiaotang naturally didn't care about the seat, and happily sat down next to Mrs. Ji.

The reception banquet was very rich, although Ji Xiaotang had not had a chance to ask what was going on, but when he saw that his family was fine, he was no longer worried.

When they got home, it was already evening, and after the feast, it was time to hold the lamp.

Mrs. Ji wanted to keep Mr. Ji San to speak, but Mr. Ji San had something in his heart, so he only advised Mrs. Ji to rest early.

"The old lady is a little older, but she rests early. I'll come over early tomorrow morning to accompany the old lady. ”

Mrs. Ji also nodded.

Only then did everyone come out of Mrs. Ji's house. Master Ji San did not go back to his yard, but followed Ji Xiaotang and Second Master Ji to Mrs. Ji's house.

"What the hell is going on?" Sitting down in Mrs. Ji's room, Ji Xiaotang asked.

"It's a long story," Second Master Ji said, "In the days you have left, many things have happened in Qingyuan. ”

And the biggest and most eye-catching thing happened in Jiang Qingshan's house.

"Grandma Jiang is sick," Mrs. Ji said, "and then, Jiang Qiao'er's child accidentally fell into the well...... Drowned. ”

These are the two things that have been talked about the most in the streets and alleys of Qingyuan County recently. On the surface, it was all an accident, and almost all the people in Manchu Yuan County remembered Jiang Qingshan's hard life.

Jiang Qingshanke has killed three wives, and he has released rumors that he does not plan to marry again. However, his life was so hard that he had no wife to restrain him, so he began to torture the rest of the family.

Gu Xia'er is rich, whether she is in her mother's house or in Jiang's house, she almost never has any pain, but she let Jiang Qingshan fall ill in bed and can't get up.

As for Jiang Qiaoer's child, because he was the grandson of Jiang Qingshan's relatives, and he was too young to withstand the punishment, he was tortured to death by Jiang Qingshan!

"That's what people all over the street say." Mrs. Ji told Ji Xiaotang.

However, the truth of the matter is not so simple.

"Two villains." Mrs. Ji sighed lightly.

What happened to the Jiang family, others don't know, but Second Master Ji has already made people inquire clearly. Although Jiang Qingshan concealed it tightly, and seemed to be fanning the flames for his own life, but the paper couldn't contain the fire after all, and what happened to the Jiang family was also heard in the streets and alleys.

Gu Xia'er was not sick, but was drugged and had a miscarriage.

"Jiang Qingshan suspected that it was Ma Wenhong and Jiang Qiaoer's husband and wife...... "Mrs. Ji Er said, "As for the child of the Ma family, it was Jiang Qingshan's hand!" ”

Master Ji San opened his mouth and didn't close it for a long time.

"Gu Xia'er's child, yes...... Is it Jiang Qingshan's dog's head? Master Ji San came back to his senses and asked.

"Yes." Mrs. Ji nodded.

"Really?" Master Ji San asked.

"What Gu Xia'er said herself, can it be true?" Mrs. Ji said.

"Gu Xia'er said it herself?" Ji Xiaotang looked at Mrs. Ji. What happened, and who did Gu Xia'er say to in person?

"It was Gu Xia'er who told me personally." Mrs. Ji Er sighed.

Rao is Ji Xiaotang, and when he heard Mrs. Ji say this, he couldn't help but be stunned.

"Mother, what happened?" After being slightly stunned, Ji Xiaotang asked Second Mrs. Ji again.

"Nothing happened." Mrs. Ji told Ji Xiaotang.

It turned out that after Ji Xiaotang left Qingyuan, Gu Xia'er came to the door again. Because Ji Xiaotang was not there, Second Mrs. Ji saw Gu Xia'er. Gu Xia'er showed symptoms of joy in front of Mrs. Ji.

Because she knew the details of Jiang Xinglong, Mrs. Ji felt that it was too embarrassing, so she planned to pretend that she didn't know. But unexpectedly, Gu Xia'er cried in front of her.

Mrs. Ji Er is a soft-hearted person, so she asked Gu Xia'er what was wrong.

Gu Xia'er sued Mrs. Ji that she was raped/defiled by Jiang Qingshan.

Because she was bent on finding out news for Second Master Ji, Gu Xia'er went to Jiang Qingshan's side more often. Once Jiang Qingshan was drunk, Gu Xia'er thought that Jiang Qingshan could spit out the truth after drinking, so she went to Jiang Qingshan's side to serve.

Jiang Qingshan took the opportunity to rape/defile Gu Xia'er.

For the sake of her reputation, Gu Xia'er didn't dare to sue anyone, so she thought about swallowing her anger, and when she found out the news, she left the Jiang family and broke off with the Jiang family. But Gu Xia'er never thought that she would get pregnant.

The reason why Gu Xia'er came to Ji Mansion that day was because she found out that she was pregnant, and she had no idea in her heart, so she subconsciously came to Ji's house.

When this kind of thing happened, Gu Xia'er's first thought should have been the Gu family, her father, but Gu Xia'er's first thought was the Ji family, the second Mrs. Ji.

I asked her what she was going to do. She said that she had no idea, and said that she would listen to me every time. When Mrs. Ji Er recounted this incident, she still showed a look of embarrassment on her face, which can be imagined how embarrassed Mrs. Ji Er was in the face of Gu Xia'er at that time.

"What did my mother say?" Ji Xiaotang's eyes narrowed slightly, and he asked Second Mrs. Ji.

I thought about it for a long time, but I still couldn't make up my mind for her. I told her that she was up to her to decide whether the child would stay or not. Either way, I'll be in charge of her life for the rest of her life. Mrs. Ji said.

"My mother is so kind-hearted." (To be continued......)
