Chapter 23: The Wicked Have Their Own Grinding

The wives praised Ji Erlan again and again, and they didn't forget to pull the Qin family and went to the flower hall one after another. Ruan's wrong tooth, in the end, it is the hostess, and she must not be absent, regardless of Ji Danyang's shocked and angry sobs, she asked the girl to send Ji Danyang back, and followed her to the flower hall.

Ji Erlan put the bracelet into her arms in front of Ji Tianjiao, looking like nothing had happened, and said: "Eldest sister looks like this, I'm afraid it's inconvenient to go to people anymore, so I went to the back hall to freshen up, and we'll go back together later." Third sister, let's go too! ”

Ji Rujun is Aunt Gu's second daughter, the same year as Ji Rong, both are eight years old, and her smooth little face combines the advantages of Aunt Gu and Ji Chenglin.

She was dragged by Ji Erlan step by step and turned around, Ji Tianjiao bit her lip tightly, with two packets of tears in her eyes, and went to the back hall to change clothes with the dumbfounded girl alone.

In the flower hall, Ji Mingyue craned her neck and looked outside, and asked the girl on the side, "What's the matter?" Where have they gone? Why is there no one in the flower hall? ”

Ji Mingyue is the second daughter of the Ruan family, she is beautiful by nature, she got a pair of gold-inlaid gold hairpins from Ji Chengrong, and she changed clothes and makeup in the room, and tossed for more than an hour before leaving the boudoir.

The little girl shook her head and said, "I don't know, it stands to reason that I should come from behind at this time!" ”

Ji Mingyue frowned and said unhappily: "Then why don't you go and inquire quickly!" She is only one year younger than Ji Danyang, and she is also sensible, thinking of showing her face in front of the wives and competing with the eldest sister.

The little girl didn't take a few steps to meet the wives and hurriedly invited someone to the table. Ji Mingyue didn't have Ruan's introduction, and she didn't dare to step forward indiscriminately, for fear of recognizing the wrong person, and when Ruan's came from behind, everyone was already in full swing to exchange glasses and lamps, laughing, there was nothing to do with their mother and daughter!

Ji Mingyue frowned, and quietly asked Ruan Shidao, "A-Niang, what's going on?" She glanced behind Ruan, "What about the eldest sister?" ”

The Ruan clan was already unhappy in his heart, but at this time, seeing that the timid and cowardly Qin clan actually talked to a few of them, he couldn't help but be even more angry. staring at the two golden hairpins on Ji Mingyue's head, how to look at it, how unpleasant! He said viciously: "Take it off!" Hurry up and take off the hairpin! ”

Ji Mingyue's slender willow eyebrows twisted: "What did my mother say!" ”

The words were full of reluctance, but seeing Ruan's expression of wanting to eat people, he still didn't dare to compete, and he thought in his heart that something must have happened, so he took the golden hairpin down and put it in his sleeve.

Ruan Shi calmed down a little, and put on a smile to introduce his second daughter to the wives. This group of women didn't know what was going on, they seemed to think of something at the same time, and when they saw Ji Mingyue, they subconsciously looked at her cuffs, head, and neck, and sure enough, there were no similar bracelets and hairpin rings, so they all smiled at each other tacitly, and they looked like this!

Ruan Shi really didn't take a breath this time, and he was dizzy and almost fell headlong. Anyway, Ji Mingyue quickly helped her sit down: "Auntie, are you okay?" ”

Seeing this, the people around hurriedly comforted: "Alas, Second Mrs. Ji, who doesn't have a few bad children, don't go to your heart, come, drink tea and moisten your throat first!" ”

As everyone knows, it was these words of advice that made Mrs. Ji unable to get up the next day, and she lay on the couch for a month......

Mrs. Ji's smile was so ugly and ugly, and she tried her best to hold her demeanor and promise: "What you said was ......"

Ji Erlan laughed secretly and lowered his head to eat what he liked.

Qin Shi glanced at her and was relieved, and continued to talk with the woman on the side. In the past, because of the Gu family and other reasons, she was always a little stunned when she intersected with each other, and she was a little afraid to speak at first, but later, she found that there was nothing too worrying about.

Isn't the fellowship between people just by eyesight?

Ji Erlan was also secretly looking at the Qin family, thinking, it's not hopeless! On the contrary, Ji Rujun on the side didn't say a word, since the last time Gu's front tooth knocked out, Ji Rujun found that the house had changed...... Not only is her father different, but her aunt and eldest sister are also strange, not as before......

Ji Erye's birthday is not a big birthday, to put it bluntly, it is to use a name to win people's hearts, and men and women have a seat, but they are two completely different situations.

Ji Chenglin was promoted, and Ji Chengrong's face also had a light on his face, and he repeatedly introduced his eldest brother to everyone, the new Metropolitan Procuratorate Inspector Yu Shi Ji!

While receiving compliments, Ji Chenglin also pondered that Ji Chengrong's family was getting richer and richer, but he was quite poor, and he felt a little uncomfortable.

Then I thought about it, in the end, I was an official! What if they have money, don't they have to stammer themselves? Sooner or later, there will be silver. Thinking like this, his heart felt a lot more comfortable, and he felt a little superior, and looked at his nephew Ji Luanfeng who was sitting on the side and said, "Brother Feng has already started studying?" ”

Ji Luanfeng is Ji Chengrong's only son, and he is only six years old this year. A silk shirt and gold collar, and two gold pendant horns fell on the total horn. Just by looking at the clothes, you can see his status in Ji Erye's family. When he heard the question, he was well-behaved, and replied in a milky voice: "Yes, my nephew has begun to read and write, and is learning a thousand words." ”

The thousand-character text and the hundred family names are all used for enlightenment, but they can't be said to be special, so Ji Chenglin said: "Brother Feng is a spiritual. Thinking of his two sons, Ji Chenglin was a little upset. Ji Yun is stubborn and lazy, and Ji Rong is timid and cowardly! He did not come out with them today.

Ji Chengrong doesn't know how to spoil his son, and of course he hopes that he will be successful: "These girls and boys in my family are all named by the eldest brother." In the future, if Brother Feng has a future, it will also have the credit of the eldest brother. The brothers are more sleek than the other, and in these words, there is a meaning of helping each other.

After saying goodbye to Ji Chengrong's house, Qin's face unexpectedly had a somewhat different look from usual, and his gaze in the face of Ji Chenglin was not so shrunken, Ji Chenglin glanced at her strangely, and his eyes turned to the three sisters of Ji Erlan. The slap marks on Ji Tianjiao's face have disappeared, but they are still slightly red, and there is still a look of grievance on her face.

"Tianjiao, what's wrong with your face?" Ji Chenglin asked strangely.

As soon as Ji Tianjiao heard this question, she shed tears aggrievedly, biting her lip and acting like a little daughter. If it was before, Ji Chenglin would definitely be extremely distressed, and asked again and again. But now he was somehow a little bored and uncomfortable. I think that Ji Erlan is articulate and speaks more comfortably. So he asked Ji Erlan: "Erlan, do you know what happened?" ”

Ji Erlan said: "The eldest sister and Cousin Ruan Ning were talking at the Hanging Flower Gate, and Sister Danyang somehow rushed out and made a move on the eldest sister, and scolded people. The second aunt also said that it was the eldest sister's, and the mother refuted a few words, but the second aunt ignored it after all, and asked Sister Danyang to make amends to the eldest sister. "It's an understatement, and it's not half true. and took out a pair of bracelets and showed them to Ji Chenglin, and then took them back as a matter of course. "Sister, am I right?"

Ji Chenglin paused as she put the bracelet, and after thinking about it, he knew that this was accompanied by the Ruan family, as for how it ended up in Ji Erlan's hands, it was an account between their sisters, and he couldn't always be biased towards Ji Tianjiao as a father, so he didn't see it. I didn't think that I used to be unconditionally biased towards Ji Tianjiao!

Ji Tianjiao looked at the two rings bulging out of Ji Erlan's arms, and said aggrievedly: "Yes, Dad." ”

Ji Chenglin didn't say anything else, but glanced at the Qin family first, but he didn't expect that she could still tell for Ji Tianjiao. Thinking of Ji Danyang's vexatious behavior, his face was a little ugly. But in the end, it was his niece, and he had a good conversation with his younger brother just now, so he said: "Children's things, you can't do it seriously, and you have to have normal interactions when you meet in the future." ”

Ji Tianjiao is even more aggrieved, she is really not suitable to travel today!

Back in Jifu, everyone rested without mentioning it.

On the second day, Ji Erlan stopped Ji Chenglin before he went out and said, "Father, Erlan has something to say. ”

Ji Chenglin's footsteps slowed down: "Oh? What is it? ”

"Before we went to Beijing, except for the old lady's courtyard, there were many people everywhere else who wanted to be released from the house. It's better to give them more silver taels and let them out of the house. ”

When Ji Chenglin heard this, he felt that it was not a big deal, so he wanted to interrupt Ji Erlan.

Ji Erlan continued: "Father knows, who doesn't have some parents, these people have worked hard for many years, and they have a lot of understanding of the affairs of our house, and they will go out separately in the future, you and I will inevitably cause some bad effects." It's easy to chew on the root of the tongue...... Not to mention the far, there are a few near......"

For example, Ji Tianjiao and her brother-in-law fell into the water and even exchanged relatives, which is really not very glorious.

Also, the Ji family has been in charge of the accounts for so many years, but Aunt Gu has always been in charge of the accounts...... Isn't managing accounts equivalent to being in charge......

A concubine is in charge of the family, isn't it enough to show that the Ji family has messed up the rules? Ji Erlan sneered in his heart, and his face did not show any light.

Ji Chenglin's heart turned, obviously he also thought of it, and suddenly his face was a little unpleasant, and he stopped and looked at Ji Erlan: "It's just some people, what can be the big deal?" ”

Ji Erlan said unhurriedly: "Father, think about it, these people are used to doing things in the mansion, and in the future, they may have to go to various officials' mansions or big families to find a living. When the time comes......"

She paused, and when she saw Ji Chenglin frowning, she obviously listened to it, so she said: "Give them some more silver taels, first, let them feel for their father, even if they are a little dissatisfied, they will not blame their father." Second, my father was kind to his subordinates, and his reputation for kindness and kindness naturally spread everywhere with them, which was really beneficial to my father. How can it be compared with this? ”

Ji Chenglin was slightly surprised, but he still felt that Ji Erlan was making a big fuss, so he said: "What Erlan said is very reasonable, but you don't have to take it too seriously. ”
