332: Debt collection
Ji Yunxi accompanied Nalan Jinxiu for another conversation and then left, she really didn't dare to stay too long. Now no one in the Ji Mansion knows that the third lady is pregnant and almost had a miscarriage, and the third master is very protected, and it is not easy to go to Jinyuan to see the third lady.
She came out of Jinyuan and went to Ji Lingxi's residence again, wanting to see her fifth sister. Although Ji Lingxi is also a concubine, because Aunt Su was favored, she lived an extremely glamorous life in the mansion.
Speaking of which, although Ji Yunxi is older than her, she has suffered her losses a lot. Although there are many brothers and sisters, only Ji Yunxi is the one who doesn't even have an aunt, and if no one protects her, she will naturally be bullied.
As soon as she entered Ji Lingxi's courtyard, she found that it was very least, when Aunt Su was there earlier, what a beautiful place their mother and daughter's residence was, and now there are very few people. Ji Yunxi covered the corners of her lips with a handkerchief, smiled slightly, and said secretly in her heart: "Sure enough, it's the current world newspaper." ”
"Say hello to the four girls. "Ji Lingxi's personal maid Lin'er is now not going to do some rough work in the outer courtyard that no one does. When she saw Ji Yunxi, she looked like a rule, thinking that at the beginning, she didn't give Ji Lingxi any less ideas to harm her.
Sooner or later, you'll reap the consequences!
Ji Yunxi shouted viciously in her heart, but she still had that good smile on her face: "I just went to see the third sister-in-law, and I thought that I hadn't seen the fifth sister for a few days, so I came over to see how she was doing." ”
Lin'er didn't expect that now that they were mixed up like this, others would either sneer at them when they saw them, or avoid them from afar, for fear that they would stick. Unexpectedly, Ji Yunxi was still thinking about them, and sure enough, the four girls were the most kind-hearted.
"Five girls are not good. Since my aunt was locked up in the Buddhist hall, her food and clothing have been much worse than usual, she was originally pampered by her aunt, where can she endure this hardship?"
Ji Yunxi looked at Lin'er, it was still the old material from a few years ago, and asked, "Are you having a hard time now?"
As soon as Lin'er said this, she was vicious: "Those who have no conscience, think that when my aunt was in power, she gave them a lot of benefits." Now that my aunt is no longer favored, she actually started our idea. In terms of food and clothing, after being deducted by them, there is not much left. ”
Their current situation was expected by Ji Yunxi, because this was all what she had personally experienced. In the past, in order to make a living, she secretly sold her embroidery in exchange for some broken silver. Who would have thought that the fourth lady of the Ji family, who is rich enough to rival the country, would have to spend her days selling embroidery?
"Then how can you maintain your life?" Ji Yunxi had a worried look on her face.
"I can only take valuable things to the pawnshop, barely supporting. You also know that pawnshop shopkeepers are all black-hearted, give little, and our things are almost sold. "Lin'er is really a handful of snot and tears.
"Didn't the fifth sister go to beg her father?"
As soon as Lin'er heard this, she was even more depressed: "It's not that the fourth girl doesn't know the temper of the fifth girl, she has always said the same. The lord didn't like her before, but fortunately, there was an aunt who was going around from it, and now that the aunt is gone, the lord is afraid that he has forgotten that he has such a daughter. ”
Lin'er got to the point, Ji Yao was cold by nature, and he attached great importance to blood. To put it bluntly, except for his third brother, doesn't he turn a blind eye to any of his children.
"Lin'er, where are you going, go to the kitchen and get me something to eat!" Ji Lingxi's voice was thin and sharp, sounding angry.
"It's not yet lunch, so how can we have something in the kitchen?" Lin'er muttered quietly.
"Did I say you're dead? Even you don't want to listen to me, do you!" Ji Lingxi came out of the house in three steps and two steps, wearing a decent dress on his body and head.
"Fifth girl, fourth girl has come to see you. Lin'er was not afraid of her, she only moved her steps and stayed away from her, so as not to be beaten again.
When Ji Lingxi saw Ji Yunxi at this time, she sneered: "What, even you came to see my jokes? Get out, you are not welcome here!"
Ji Yunxi didn't care about the vulgarity of her words, she still opened a pair of watery eyes with a smile, and said softly: "Fifth sister doesn't have to be like this, I'm not here to see your jokes, I just feel sorry for you." ”
"I need you to feel distressed?"
Ji Yunxi glanced at the people waiting around her, and someone took out a bag of silver and handed it to Lin'er. Ji Yunxi looked at Ji Lingxi with a smile and said softly: "I didn't know that my sister's situation in the mansion was so difficult, so I didn't bring much silver when I came out, and I will ask someone to send some to you tomorrow." ”
Ji Lingxi looked at her with some puzzlement, she still knew what she had done. She bullied her at the beginning, how can Ji Yunxi repay her grievances with virtue now?
My aunt taught her that the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit. She didn't believe that Ji Yunxi had no purpose, "You definitely won't give me money for nothing, you want me to do something for you, say it!"
Ji Yunxi is still as good-tempered as ever: "I'm already married, what can I ask you to do for me?" ”
"No need!" Ji Lingxi knew that she must not have any good intentions, she must have come to see her jokes.
"I'm with your sisters, and I can't see you so down. ”
"What does it matter to you if I'm down?"
"Although I am married, I still recognize you as a sister. Don't blame me for not reminding you, if you don't find a way to get your aunt out of the Buddha hall, you mother and daughter won't end well. ”
Ji Lingxi didn't know? She had begged her father and grandmother many times for her aunt, but her father had already made up her mind, and her grandmother ignored it, what else could she do?
"When you are old, you will fade, and if you are old, you will love it. Although my aunt is beautiful and beautiful, she is not young, if you wait for your father to have someone else by her side, do you think your aunt and you can still turn over?"
Ji Lingxi was finally moved by her, she hesitated and asked, "Then what can you do?"
"Naturally, there is. It's just that this is not the place to speak, I wonder if Sister Wu can let me in and sit?"
Although Ji Lingxi was wary of her, she didn't want to turn people away, so she nodded and took her in. Ji Yunxi went in and stayed for a long time, and the subordinates were all blocked out, and no one knew what they said. I only know that when she comes out again, the sunset has sunset.
She seemed to be in a good mood, and she didn't even sit in a sedan chair, but was supported by a maid all the way and walked slowly. When the sun finally sank, it was dark around her, with only the faint light of the lantern illuminating the road.
She laughed, startling the two maids next to her. They all looked at each other in unison, and they both felt that Madame was too abnormal now, and when there were no outsiders, her expression would be gloomy. It's like the laughter just now, cold and ridiculous, which makes people very uncomfortable to listen to.
Ji Yunxi didn't pay any attention to what they thought of herself. She only knew that everything she owed her at the beginning would be recovered, and of course Aunt Su and Ji Lingxi were no exception. What is it to stay in the ancestral hall and copy Buddhist scriptures, and what is it to be snubbed and bullied? She wants their mother and daughter to eat the consequences of their own evil and not die well!
She thought that Ji Lingxi would go to Nalan Jinxiu tomorrow, but the result was naturally unsatisfactory. Her temperament will inevitably make trouble, and if she offends the third brother when the time comes, she will definitely be cornered in the Ji family. Ji Lingxi had to think that a powerful man next to him was nothing more than the best way out.
She, even the man has found her good......
————
Ji Hongye's side received another letter from Fang Wan'er. Fang Wan'er originally sent someone to Jinge, but unfortunately she didn't find Nalan Jinxiu, so she had no choice but to ask Ji Hongye for help. said that he had found the medicine that Mr. Bai wanted, and asked him to introduce Mr. Bai.
Ji Hongye didn't want Nalan Jinxiu to diagnose people again, but Yuan Yuning's situation was not optimistic, and he was afraid that if Ah Jin didn't make a move, he would die. He had no choice but to take leave the next day, preparing to take Nalan Jinxiu to Yuan's house in person.
The silver krait snake is hard to find, but I didn't expect it to be found by Fang Wan'er. Nalan Jinxiu was very comforted in her heart, as the so-called sincerity goes, the golden stone is open, she feels that this is the result of Fang Wan'er's sincerity and perseverance.
Yuan Yuning's situation has been much better since he was seen by Nalan Jinxiu, and now he can walk around on his own. This is like a blessing for a person who has been sick for a long time, and it has ignited the hope of rebirth. Therefore, Fang Wan'er is even more convinced of Nalan Jinxiu.
This time it was still Yuan Yucong who received them as husband and wife. Everyone in the Yuan Mansion knew Ji Hongye's identity, and when a second-grade official came to the Shangjia House, he naturally had to be courteous. It's just that Yuan Xian, the head of the Yuan family, is out of the house, so he can only be Yuan Yucong to do it for him.
Yuan Yucong was probably afraid of Ji Hongye's name, so he didn't deliberately embarrass them like last time, and took them to the backyard very politely.
This is the second time Nalan Jinxiu has seen Yuan Yucong, and the feeling is the same as the first time, this person is funny and talkative on the surface, but his internal strength is unfathomable. Anyway, she couldn't tell what kind of path he was.
Ji Hongye became suspicious as soon as he came into contact with Yuan Yucong. Because when Yuan Yucong was talking to him, he subconsciously fanned him a few times. It's the height of summer, the weather is hot, and it's not unusual to wear a fan.
But when talking to him, if Yuan Yucong opened the fan, it would be rude, and it could even be said that he was not respectful enough. With such a superficial etiquette, it is impossible for him, a businessman, not to know it.
But he did it several times, and it can be seen that he was absent-minded. Ji Hongye also observed that his hand holding the fan was very tight, which proved that he was flustered and struggling in his heart.
Yuan Yuning's illness was due to poisoning, and Yuan Yucong looked so abnormal, could it be a mutual calculation between brothers? This Yuan family is really not as harmonious as it seems, and I don't know how many secret things there are......
