Chapter 19: Falling out of favor
This is what Ji Chenglin said to her yesterday, although Ji Tianjiao was unwilling, he also thought so. My aunt's appearance has been incomplete, and what I can rely on at this time is only many years of love, if my aunt doesn't know how to advance or retreat, Daddy will be disgusted with her sooner or later. When the time comes, not only will it be difficult to protect herself, but it will also affect her. In short, I have to settle my aunt's affairs after I arrive in the capital smoothly first. "Auntie, why don't you succumb to the moment and wait for the right time."
Aunt Gu looked at her daughter blankly, dazed.
Ji Tianjiao hurriedly sat closer, covered the emptiness in her eyes, took Aunt Gu's hand and said: "Auntie, don't worry, several people in that courtyard are not treated by Daddy, but you and Daddy have been in love for more than ten years, and after this limelight, Dad forgot about it, and my daughter must find a way to take Auntie to the capital." ”
A dull pain rose in Aunt Gu's heart, and the few people she once thought were closely connected to her had all left her behind overnight.
"At this time, if my daughter goes to entangle with Daddy, maybe even my daughter will not be able to follow Daddy to the capital, where will we have a chance at that time? As long as there is a daughter by Daddy's side, it is a matter of time before Daddy changes his mind. But if my aunt didn't give up at this time, she angered Daddy, so that he didn't even care about his love for many years, how could he have to make up for the loss? Ji Tianjiao's hand tightened, "Auntie, don't worry, your daughter won't let them have a good time, and her daughter will definitely ......"
"Hmm." Aunt Gu interrupted Ji Tianjiao's words that she was eager to defend and said, "Ah Niang Xin." As she spoke, her expression gradually recovered, and what she said was true, their mother and daughter were connected by blood, as long as Tianjiao followed her to the capital, she would go sooner or later. It's just that she wanted to raise her lips and smile, but she couldn't.
Ji Erlan leaned lightly behind the pillars, listened to Ji Tianjiao's shameless and selfish words, and sneered back to the West Courtyard.
The Qin family packed up the things he wanted to take away in a panic, Ji Rong was very excited, although Ji Yun didn't say anything, and tried his best to hide it, his face also showed anticipation from time to time. Ji Erlan said: "Auntie, before going to Beijing, I'm afraid I have to go to my second uncle's house, right?" ”
Qin Shi was stunned for a moment, counted the days, and said, "Exactly, it will be your second uncle's birthday in a few days." Although she remembered, it was Aunt Gu who handled such things in previous years, so she didn't pay too much attention to it. Ji Erlan said: "Ah Niang, I'm afraid Daddy will take us this year, Ah Niang has to be prepared in her heart." ”
The cynicism of the second aunt, the praise of the cousin and others, all have to be psychologically prepared.
Qin Shi let out a soft 'ah', and then thought of Aunt Gu's situation, and couldn't help but understand. She thought about it, and she was more worried about Ji Erlan being bullied than worrying about being snubbed and blamed, so she said: "Erlan don't be afraid, if there is anything, you just hide behind A-Niang." ”
Ji Erlan was stunned for a moment, then her heart warmed, and she nodded in agreement: "Hmm." ”
The buds on the spring branches, after a few rains, grew rapidly, just like the changes of the Ji family, and the speed was amazing. However, in three or five days, the branches have been covered and the gaps between the branches have been tightly blocked.
Ji Erlan was born in the summer season for both years, so he is particularly fond of flowers, birds, fish and insects.
Regardless of her name or preciousness, she just likes that kind of greenery. Even the big willow trees planted on the side of the alley, as long as they grow thick and thick, she still likes them. Last time, I saw a cinnamon surrounded by three people in Liu Ling's yard, and there was a bonsai of pines and cypresses with a good posture in the house, and my eyes were about to burst into flames.
Back in the day......
Forget it, Ji Erlan sighed, don't think about it back then, she will build a garden like that in the future!
At this time, she was standing in the front hall of her second uncle's house, staring at a pot of white jade peonies covered with ground fire under the attic window, and her cousin Ji Danyang's sneering and show-off voice came from her ears. "This white jade peony, but my uncle of the Ruan family specially spent a lot of money to buy it as a birthday gift for my father! I don't know how much better than that mess......"
This 'mess' naturally refers to the congratulatory gift from Ji Erlan's family. 'Uncle Ruan' refers to the second aunt Ruan's maiden brother, that is, Ruan Ning's father, who has always been what Ji Danyang likes to talk about. Ji Erlan turned his head and asked curiously, "Heavy money?" How much does it weigh? ”
When it came to silver, Ji Danyang's sense of superiority scurried up again.
The Ruan family has had some dealings with the Meng family of the Da'an Emperor in recent years, so they are even more wealthy. And Ji Erbo's family, which has an in-law relationship with the Ruan family, naturally followed suit. To be honest, in terms of wealth and nobility, it is really not a little bit stronger than Ji Erlan's family.
Ji Danyang often stimulated Ji Erlan with this, hoping to see a jealous and panicked look on her face to satisfy her vanity. She changed the handkerchief from her left hand to her right hand, compared three fingers, and even her eyebrows were smirking: "It costs three thousand taels of silver!" ”
Ji Erlan looked at her erected fingers and thought: If she gets Yao Huang Wei Zi Er Qiao or something, her fingers and toes are not enough. "Oh."
