Chapter 30: Ji Pan

From the miscellaneous courtyard where the subordinates lived to the main courtyard of the Ji family's ancestral house, it was necessary to walk a long way in zigzags, and when Yu Shu was led to Ji Lao Taijun, it was already dark outside.

Yu Shu stood at the door, the door was two open mahogany doors, two curtains hung at the head of the door, half of the curtains made of green bamboo strips were rolled up, half were falling, and the top was tied with red silk ropes.

There is an inverted fan hanging in the middle of the bamboo curtain, the fan is made of jade, the size of two palms, the texture is distinct, the shape is very exquisite, the jade white is flowing with some yellow, as if it will shine, such a feng shui ornament, it is about a hundred taels to sell in the Yi Pavilion, and it is hung on the curtain as an ornament so loudly, which inevitably makes Yu Shu look at it twice.

"Old lady, Miss Yu is here, Yu Gongzi went out to play, but I didn't find anyone."

The family was lazy and trouble-free, so he didn't go to Yu Xiaoxiu at all, and automatically made up Yu Shu's words and reported them, and Yu Shu stood at the door, lowered his head, and raised his eyelids to look inside.

There were three people sitting in the room, and there were two Taishi chairs against the wall in the innermost, one was empty, neatly covered with green striped flower backrests, one end was on the back of the chair, one end hung down under the chair, and on the other chair sat a rich and compelling old woman, with a thin body and a majestic appearance, her gray hair was meticulously combed, and the hair was densely covered with gold and jade headdresses, and a string of jade hanging beads hung around her neck, which hung down to her abdomen.

This is Mrs. Ji.

On the side sat a middle-aged woman not far from her, with her eyebrows and eyes, more vulgar than the old lady, but not bad, a string of pearl necklaces exposed under the collar, and each milky white bead was as thick as a thumb.

Next to this woman stood a young man with a round waist and a fat belly, his face was white, and when he saw Yu Shu at the door, his eyes widened in shock, and he lowered his head and shrank behind the woman's back.

recognized Ma Weibo, and of course this woman should be Ji Pan, the eldest aunt of the Ji family who married Ma County Ling in Yiyang City.

Seeing this battle, you don't need to ask to know what is going on.

After listening to the report, Mrs. Ji did not squeak, and looked at Yu Shu outside the door with cold eyes.

Yu Shu didn't take the initiative to greet him, so he stood honestly outside the door.

The first to speak out was Ji Pan:

"You're Yu Shu?"

Ji Pan's official wife, Aunt Cui didn't have the opportunity to talk to her, let alone Yu Shu, who couldn't get on the stage, and after living in the Ji family for so long, it was not easy for her to know her name.

"Yes."

Yu Shulai originally imagined on the way that if her aunt and grandmother saw her, she would definitely lose her temper first, after all, she beat Young Master Ma not lightly last night, she knocked him more than ten times with a flat pole, even if it was not broken, there would be bruises.

Unexpectedly, Ji Pan neither got angry nor scolded, but calmly asked:

"Did you hit Weibo last night?"

Yu Shu raised his head, glanced at Ma Weibo who was shrinking behind Ji Pan, couldn't guess what he said to his family when he went back, and looked at Ji Pan's sensible appearance, he couldn't help but have a good feeling in his heart, thought for a moment, and said truthfully:

"Indeed, I hit it."

With a "bang", Mrs. Ji patted the armrest, stretched out her hand and pointed at Yu Shu, and said:

"You Nizi, the Ji family provides you with food and drink, you don't know how to be grateful, and you are crazy to beat the young master, who taught you like this, it's just hateful."

Yu Shu didn't think about talking back, because although the old lady's words were sour, she was right, she was indeed a cannibal now.

"Mother is angry," Ji Pan called out, and persuaded in a harmonious voice: "Let's listen to what this kid has to say first, Weibo is usually naughty and active, maybe he bullied others first, and then he was beaten." ”

Ma Weibo didn't tell the cause and effect of their fight last night, but in Yu Shu's expectation, the fat man was beaten, and she warned him that he might not dare to tell his family, but he was afraid that people would find out the injuries on his body, so he shook it out.

But Aunt Ji's attitude made Yu Shu strange, I don't know if she was pretending to be generous or really generous.

Mrs. Ji is such a little daughter, she is very fond of her, and when she heard Ji Pan's words, she suppressed her anger and asked Yu Shu:

"You say, what are you beating people for?"

Since this matter has been discovered, there is not only one eyewitness, there is evidence sooner or later, and it is not interesting to make up nonsense, Yu Shu stood at the door and replied:

"Last night at dinner, my brother didn't come back, so I went out to look for him, and I happened to meet the young master in the small garden of the West Cross Courtyard and led people to bully my brother, and three or four of them beat him up, tied people to trees, and forced him to eat mud, I was angry, so I fought with them regardless of it, and I hit it hard for a while, so I injured the young master, I don't believe it, you can ask the young master."

Ji Pan frowned, pulled Ma Weibo in front of him, and asked, "Weibo, you tell your mother, is this what she said?" ”

Ma Weibo turned his head to look at Yu Shu, and then turned his head quickly.

Ji Pan saw that his son refused to speak, and said with a serious expression: "Weibo, how did my mother tell you last time, you were naughty, and your mother scolded you a few words at most, but if you lie and deceive people, your mother will let your father teach you a lesson." ”

Hearing this, Yu Shu secretly raised her eyebrows, this Aunt Ji is the most reliable one she has ever seen in the Ji family.

Ma Weibo's eyes were red, as if he was about to cry, he sniffled, and finally whispered:

"Yes, that's what she said."

Ji Pan sighed, and Mrs. Ji's face darkened.
