Back in the mansion, Ji Tianjiao was still frightened, Miyun and Linglan were also bruised, and their bodies hurt terribly. Linglan was fine, but Mi Yun couldn't help muttering: "It's so good, why did you startle the horse?" ”

Ji Tianjiao was already suspicious in her heart, but when she mentioned it, she thought about it and said, "Linglan, you go and inquire, what is the second sister doing today, why didn't you go to the Great Pudu Temple with us." ”

Linglan was a little confused, but she had a simple temperament, and she didn't ask in detail, so she agreed and went. When she went out, Ji Tianjiao called Miyun to her eyes and said, "Today, what rumors have you heard about the Ruan family?" ”

Miyun glanced at her hesitantly and said, "The slave maid heard about something, but she didn't dare to be sure whether it was true or not, and she didn't dare to talk nonsense in front of the girl. ”

Regarding Ruan Ning's matter, although Ji Tianjiao felt that Yan Hong was not necessary to lie to her, she still instinctively wanted to confirm it. Then he said, "It's nothing, you just say it." ”

"Yes......" Seeing that her expression was calm, Mi Yun seemed to be mentally prepared, so she said: "The matter of the Ruan family has spread in Beijing, after all, there has been a fatality, and it is not lucky for the Liu family to die in such a way, and the people who went to mourn that day were ...... I heard something unbounded, so the rumors became more and more outrageous. ”

Ji Tianjiao glanced at her and said, "Be careful." ”

"That's it...... On the same day, our future aunt suddenly launched a frenzy and bit his father, and a little girl was frightened and rushed out of the yard all the way, shouting 'Mrs.'s unjust soul is back, and the young master is going to eat people'. ”

Ji Tianjiao's heart sank: "What does Ji Erlan mean by not letting them talk nonsense, do you not want people to spread the ugly things about the Ruan family, or don't you want me to know that Ruan Ning has become like that?" My father must have known everything, but he didn't mention a word to me, and the Qin family, who pretended to take me to the temple, almost killed me! ”

"Girl!" Mi Yun was taken aback, a little frightened, and said, "You can't say this, if it spreads, the slave and maid will be the first to be killed......

"What can't be said!" Ji Tianjiao's heart was full of fear and rejection of the future, she said: "They can't see me well one by one, and they want to push me into the fire pit, if not...... If he hadn't mentioned it today, I would still be in the dark! ”

Mi Yun was surprised: "Did the eldest prince of the Yan family tell you?" ”

Ji Tianjiao didn't speak or deny it, only clutched the handkerchief, suppressing his anger. Seeing this, Mi Yun said: "This is all rumors, and it may not be true......

Ji Tianjiao said: "Then, you go and help me confirm it!" ”

Mi Yun was stunned for a moment and asked, "The girl wants me to secretly investigate?" ”

Ji Tianjiao took out some silver from the box and handed it to Mi Yun, and explained: "You are a clever person, you don't need me to tell you, you also know how to do it, the Ruan family is not an iron cage, and you will definitely be able to find out reliable information." and make some of the money you have left, and you will keep it for yourself. ”

Mi Yun held the silver in her hand, and her heart became happy, it was not difficult for her to find out the news, and besides, the Ruan family was in a mess at this time, as long as she put a little effort into it, there was nothing she could do. He immediately promised: "Yes, the slave maid knows, and she must ask the young master about the situation clearly." ”

Ji Tianjiao glanced at her with satisfaction and said, "This is not only for me, but also for yourself." Presumably, you don't want to marry into that kind of family with me in the future, do you? ”

Mi Yun's heart moved, thinking of Ji Tianjiao and Yan Dagongzi's actions today, could it be that there was something among them? "Yes, slave understands."

When Miyun went out, Ji Tianjiao was left alone in the house. She leaned quietly on the bed and closed her eyes, as if she could still smell the heavy fragrance of Yan Hong's body. The feeling of being held in his arms was so nostalgic, and the place where he had pinched her ankle suddenly became hot and hot, leaving her at a loss.

"If you can commit to such a man, the others don't have to care so much......

"What did you say, girl?"

Linglan didn't know when she entered the house, Ji Tianjiao didn't notice it, she opened her eyes and said, "It's nothing." Did you hear the news? ”

"The slave thought that the girl was asleep, so she didn't dare to disturb her." Linglan brought the water and handed it to her, and replied, "The second girl didn't leave the house today, nor did she step out of the courtyard. As for what she was doing, the slave couldn't find out. You also know that the people in the empty mountain are very strict-mouthed, and if they are not strict-mouthed, they can't get close to the second girl. ”

Ji Tianjiao snorted coldly and said, "Since she is fine, why don't you go to the Great Pudu Temple today?" Could it be that there was an accident in my carriage, was it really her or the Qin family who did it? ”

Ling Lan was a little nervous when she heard such a speculation, and said, "This ...... Probably not...... Madame, she has indeed not seen the second girl much in recent days. There are fewer times when the second girl goes to the main courtyard. Maybe she didn't even know that she was going to the temple today. ”

Ji Tianjiao was ordered by Ji Chenglin not to go out of the house before, and if the maidservant didn't mention many things, she wouldn't know. At this time, he was surprised: "Why?" The second sister had an awkward fall out with her mother? ”

Linglan shook her head and said, "I don't know about the slave maid, but Ah Tan, who is beside Madame, went out of the house for some reason, probably from that time......"

"Atan was released from the house?" Ji Tianjiao straightened up in surprise. "Ah Tan has been following his mother and second sister since Yangcheng, why did he leave suddenly? Whoever walks she shouldn't go...... Have you heard what happened? ”

Linglan shook her head. Ji Tianjiao couldn't help it when he saw this, so he couldn't think of a reason so he had to let go of this matter first. admonished: "What happened to the eldest prince of Yan today, don't mention it to anyone, you know!" ”

Linglan hurriedly nodded and said, "It's about the girl's reputation, and the slave won't talk nonsense." ”

It wasn't until the inner courtyard was locked at night that Miyun hurried back. Ji Tianjiao asked Linglan to guard the door and asked her, "Miyun, can you inquire clearly?" ”

Mi Yun clutched his chest and gasped a few breaths, and said, "After the slave maid left the house, she went to the vicinity of Ruan's house to pay attention, and after waiting for a long time, I saw that there was a mother-in-law in their house who came out to buy vegetables and fruits. So I stepped forward to talk, at first she was hesitant, and then I stuffed the silver for her, and she said it easily. Cousin young master, he ...... It seems like the situation is very bad......"

Ji Tianjiao secretly said that this was indeed the case, and motioned for her to continue.

Mi Yun said: "That mother-in-law said, the young master has not been crazy for a day or two, and he has always been like that long before the Liu family became seriously ill, otherwise the old man of the Ruan family would not have separated from the Liu family, and the Liu family would not have become seriously ill......

Ji Tianjiao gritted his teeth when he heard this: "It turns out that the Ruan family used me as a fool to coax me from the beginning!" ”

Mi Yun also felt that the Ruan family was really hateful, and said: "Most of the maidens who help in the kitchen have broken mouths, and this woman is no exception, she said that after Ruan Ning's accident, the Ruan family master and the Liu family were very fortunate to have decided on this family affair early and prepared a large number of dowries, just for fear that we would regret it." ”

"Humph! I see that the Ruan family is flying into trouble, and it is all retribution! Who made them black-hearted! ”

"Yes, they kept it a secret and strictly ordered that no one in the house was allowed to spread the word. He also said that when you marry smoothly, all the servants in the house will pay half a year's extra monthly silver! If it weren't for the slave who stuffed her with all the money the girl had given, she wouldn't have said anything! ”

"So my father must not know about this." Ji Tianjiao thought so, and felt a lot of relief in her heart, she looked at Miyun, plucked a jasper hairpin from her head, handed it to her, and said, "You did a good job on this errand, take it." ”

Mi Yun happily took it and thanked him repeatedly: "Thank you, girl, this is the duty of a slave." ”

Ji Tianjiao smiled, noncommittal, she had suffered so many losses one after another, and she also understood many people's sophistication, and said: "In the future, if you work hard, you will naturally have benefits." ”

Mi Yun got the hairpin, became more and more concerned, and asked, "Since the young master is not a good person, what is the girl going to do?" It's been less than two months since the wedding......"

Ji Tianjiao's eyebrows sank, and he said: "My father was deceived by the Ruan family before, but he should have learned the truth at this time, but he didn't tell me, and watched me jump into the fire pit!" She clenched her fists tightly and said, "Father has been blinded by the Qin family's mother and daughter, and his heart has been blinded by lard...... In that case, I can only figure it out on my own......"

Mi Yun said: "However, no matter what method the girl uses, as long as you propose to withdraw from your family, you will definitely be rejected by others......

Ji Tianjiao bit her lip, thinking of Yan Hong, I don't know if he will agree to himself...... If he can agree, there is nothing to be afraid of, even if he is criticized, she doesn't care at all! "Miyun, you've been paying attention lately, if someone is ...... If there is news of the eldest son of Yan, you must tell me in time. ”

Seeing that she looked concerned, Mi Yun thought to herself, sure enough, she and Yan Hong had known each other for a long time, and the solution to this matter might also be on the other party, so she quickly agreed.

……

In the empty mountain, Ji Erlan was surprised: "Surprised? ”

"Well, I heard that the startled horse pulled the carriage all the way and ran a long way. It almost knocked the carriage apart. Fortunately, the eldest girl and the two girls are fine. The lady took her servants into the woods to look for people, and their clothes were torn. Later, I went back to the house directly, saying that I would go to the Great Pudu Temple another day. Yuexi raised her eyebrows, described what happened today, and wondered: "Could there be anything strange in this?" I asked the groom in the house, and he said that he didn't see anything unusual about the horses, so he was suddenly frightened and couldn't pull them back. ”

Ji Erlan shook her head when she heard this: "A-Niang won't do this kind of thing, and there is no need to do it, maybe it's really an accident." ”

Yuexi said: "There is one more thing, Miyun next to the eldest girl went out to inquire about the Ruan family today. She was afraid that she already knew about Ruan Ning's situation, and she might be about to make trouble again. ”

Ji Erlan sighed: "Now we have too many things at hand, and we can't care about her." I have already said that I will no longer interfere in the affairs of her and Ruan Ning in the future, as long as it does not touch us, whatever she wants. ”
