"In front of Piaoxiang Building, grandmother likes to eat the drunken fairy duck inside, pass by and bring one back." Thinking of the preferences of the old lady of the Hou Mansion, Zhou Fu said.

"Okay." Zhao Yan responded, and then motioned to Zhou Fu to look at the other side, "Madam, look at the second girl Ji is on the other side, who is the man next to her?" Do you know each other? ”

Zhou Fu looked at it when she heard this, and said with some surprise: "Why did Sister Wan come out without even bringing a guard?" The man looked at him, not like the son of a family in the capital. ”

Zhao Yan turned his head to look at Qi Cheng, and saw that his eyes were still on the other side, the thought in his heart became stronger and stronger, and he bowed his head and said to Zhou Fu: "Madam is friendly with Miss Ji Er, go and inquire about what relationship that man has with her." ”

Zhou Fu saw that his request was a little strange, and couldn't help asking, "What are you asking me to do here?" ”

Zhao Yan glanced at Qi Cheng's back and sighed, "I inquired for others." ”

Sun Yingying's carriage followed behind Zhou Fu's carriage, the voices of Zhao Yan and Zhou Fu talking faintly came, and when she heard the words mention Ji Er's girl, she lifted the curtain and looked outside, just in time to see Yan Xiao on the opposite side entering the silk shop, only Ji Yunyun was still in front of the bamboo stall outside.

The first time Sun Yingying saw Ji Yunyun, she reflexively looked at Qi Cheng, although she could only see the back, but the direction of his head was clearly falling on Ji Yunyun.

Sun Yingying clenched her fingers tightly, her nails pinched into her palms, Ji Yunyun, she read the name fiercely in her heart, and a cold light flashed in her eyes.

Seeing that it was not too early, Ji Yunyun and Yan Xiao and Yan Shuangshuang went back to the Yan family's house. Hearing that his uncle had returned from the palace, Ji Yunyun got out of the carriage and went to the study.

When I stepped into the study, I saw my uncle writing something on the desk, "Uncle! Ji Yunyun called excitedly.

Yan Kuan put down his pen for a moment, looked up and saw Ji Yunyun, his eyes stayed on her face for a moment, and he strode towards her after throwing down the pen.

As soon as Ji Yunyun blessed his uncle, he pulled him up, Yan Kuan looked at the girl in front of him, and said excitedly: "Yun'er has grown so big, she is really more and more like your mother, and your mother is like a mold carved out." ”

Let the tea be served, Yan Kuan pulled Ji Yunyun to sit down on the chair, carefully inquired about her current situation in the Guogong Mansion, and heard about the previous abduction by the mountain bandits, so angry that he slapped the table and said: "There is no good thing in the Ji family this time, the second master of the dignified family, sneaking around to raise the outer room, even if it harms his own daughter, it will cause you to suffer so much!" If you have any strengths and weaknesses, I must make the Ji family unhappy! ”

Because the old lady has always disliked her mother, her uncle has always hated the Ji family, and scolded her and her younger brother in a moment of anger, Ji Yunyun knew that her uncle felt sorry for her, so she only touched her ears and didn't hear it, and comforted her uncle softly: "Uncle, don't be angry, I'm not fine." ”

"I don't think the Ji family can count on it, there will be Xiao'er in the future, let Xiao'er protect you." Yan Kuan's face was stiff, and his anger did not subside.

Ji Yunyun nodded with a smile, remembered and asked: "Uncle, my aunt said that the emperor called you back to Beijing to let you take over the post of Shaoqing of Dali Temple, why is it you, there should be someone in the capital who wants to take over this position." ”

"Yes, I am also very confused along the way, your uncle I have been in Yaozhou for so many years, although I have some merits, but Yaozhou is far away from the capital, the emperor is afraid that he will not remember me, and the position of Shaoqing of Dali Temple will not be my turn anyway." Yan Kuan took a sip of tea and continued: "So when I went to see the emperor today, I inquired about it tactfully, and the emperor's implication was that someone in the court recommended me." ”

Ji Yunyun was a little surprised, "Someone in the DPRK recommended it?" ”

"Yes, speaking of which, I have nothing to do with the court, and I don't know which adult recommended me. However, if you can recommend it in front of the emperor, presumably the official position will not be low. Yan Kuan said.

Ji Yunyun's mind turned, the previous uncle was able to return to the capital to take over as the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, because he was bullied by Sun Yingying several times, and he had a bad relationship with the Guogong Mansion, Princess An took pity on her in the capital and did not rely on her, so she helped ask the emperor to recall her uncle back to the capital. Now that my uncle has returned to the capital ahead of schedule, who is helping behind it, will it be Princess An?

Yan Kuan didn't know what his niece was thinking, remembering the letter he received when he was in Yaozhou, he got up and took out a portrait and a drawn note from the desk and unfolded it, and said: "I have already investigated the matter that you wrote to me to investigate, and the little girl on this portrait has also admitted that the Jade Buddha incident was framed by her, and it was she who accidentally broke the Jade Buddha when she was in the Guogong Mansion, and the Aunt Fang in the second room was afraid of being punished by the old lady, so she came up with a way to frame others." ”

After speaking, Yan Kuan sneered, "I just said that there is no good thing in the family this season, and an aunt is just so vicious, knowing that you are not liked in the Guogong Mansion, I specially framed you!" I'm going to live in Zhuangzi for a year! ”

was scolded again, Ji Yunyun said helplessly: "Uncle, Yunting and I are also members of the Ji family. ”

"Look at the days you spent in the Ji family, did they treat you as a Ji family?!" Yan Kuan was angry when he thought about it, when his sister wanted to marry to the Guogong Mansion, he didn't agree, he knew that the old lady of the Ji family felt that they had climbed the high branches and didn't like his sister. Later, my sister died, and my brother-in-law also went, just because his niece looked like his sister, the old lady actually transferred her dislike for her sister to her niece, and forcibly raised the two sisters and brothers separately, which was too much!

Seeing that her uncle was angry again, Ji Yunyun hurriedly comforted, "Uncle, I am living well in the house now, my uncle and aunt are very good to me, although my grandmother doesn't like me, I don't go to her eyes, and I don't treat me harshly when I eat and dress." ”

Yan Kuan forcibly suppressed his qi and asked, "What are you going to do about this matter?" The cause and effect of the incident The little girl and her family explained it clearly, including that Aunt Fang later gave them money to let them leave the capital, and she had already drawn a handprint on it. I'll take it to the Guogong Mansion tomorrow to find the old lady and Ji Mingzheng and that Aunt Fang to testify, so that they can return your innocence? ”

"Don't worry, uncle, I'll handle this matter myself." Ji Yunyun shook her head, she now has a very complicated feeling about the other aunt and Ji Yunrou's mother and daughter, they are not loved by the second uncle, and they are often bullied by the second aunt, and their presence in the house is very low. In the last life, when she was wronged in the house, Aunt Fang kindly comforted her, and later when she got married, Ji Yunrou gave her a sachet embroidered by herself, and happily wished her happiness.

"It's good that when you grow up, you can make your own decisions about many things." Yan Kuan looked at his niece and nodded with satisfaction.

Ji Yunyun put away the note drawn and put it into his sleeve, Yun Bo came over and said that Ji Yunting was here, the two went to the backyard, Ji Yunting met his uncle and aunt and two cousins and cousins, and the two sisters and brothers had dinner together at Yan's house, and then got into the carriage and went back to Guogong Mansion.

When they arrived at the Guogong Mansion, it was already dark, Ji Yunyun and his younger brother were separated in the garden, one went back to Rongshan Hall and the other went back to Jinxiu Courtyard. As soon as Ji Yunyun walked to the Hanging Flower Gate, a black shadow suddenly jumped out of the bushes next to her, and she was so frightened that she took a few steps back and almost fell.

"Meow ......," the shadow cried, and a few jumps went into the bushes and disappeared.

"Who raised this cat, why don't you look at it." Chun Tao helped her girl and said angrily.

As soon as the words fell, Ji Yunlan hurriedly came over from the Hanging Flower Gate with a few maids, and looked everywhere with lanterns as she walked, "Meow, where are you?" Meow come out. ”

"That was your cat just now?" Ji Yunyun stopped her and asked.

Ji Yunlan's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly asked, "Did you see Meow?" Where is it? ”

"Go over there, take care of the cat in the future, what if it scares people at night." Ji Yunyun pointed to the direction where the cat ran away just now, and then took Chun Tao away.

Ji Yunlan was just about to look in the direction she pointed, the light of the lantern shone on a stack of boxy notes on the ground, she picked it up and wanted to stop Ji Yunyun, but when she looked up, she saw that the person had already walked away, so she had to put the note in her sleeve and prepare to return it to her tomorrow.

The next day, Ji Yunyun went for a walk in the yard after breakfast, thinking that her cousin had just returned to the capital, and she should lack jewelry and rouge gouache to dress up, but she had a lot of unused ones, so she could pick some good ones and send them over, and the maid in Ji Yunshu's house came to invite her, saying that Zhou Fu was here and invited her over.

In the past, Zhou Fuzheng and Ji Yunshu talked about her loss of appetite these days and her lack of appetite for anything, seeing that Ji Yunyun had arrived, Zhou Fu smiled and pulled her to sit down and asked: "Sister Yun, I saw you when I passed by the street yesterday, there is a strange man next to you, which family's son?" ”

"You went out yesterday?" Ji Yunshu also looked at her curiously.

It turned out that she was invited over just to ask this, Ji Yunyun couldn't help laughing, and said to them: "My uncle returned to the capital yesterday, and the one who was with me on the street was my cousin. ”

Zhou Fu suddenly realized, "Really? It turned out that Lord Yan, who returned to Beijing to take over the post of Shaoqing of Dali Temple, was your uncle. ”

Ji Yunyun nodded, "I also have a cousin, who is about the same age as us, and I will introduce you to see him one day." ”

"Okay." Ji Yunshu smiled and said, "Why don't you invite your cousin to come and sit in the mansion, she has not been to our mansion yet." ”

The three of them said something else, Ji Yunyun saw that Ji Yunshu was a little absent-minded, and looked out of the door from time to time, and couldn't help asking, "Big sister, what are you looking at?" ”

Zhou Fu pursed her lips and laughed, "She looked at my brother, speaking of which, my brother said to go outside for a walk, why hasn't he come back yet?" It can't be that you get lost, right? ”

Ji Yunshu listened, raised his hand and called the maid, "Ying'er, go out and find the young master." ”

In the Bitong Courtyard in the second room, Ji Yunlan was trying on the jewelry given to her by her father in front of the dressing mirror. The mountain bandit incident scared her father's half of his life almost gone, these days he has been a lot more honest, he stayed at home honestly in the next dynasty, and he didn't run outside, in order to appease her mother, she slept in her mother's house these days, and the two aunts didn't go. And because he was ashamed of her, he bought a lot of clothes and jewelry to make her happy.

"Girl, girl." The little maid Ah Fu ran in from outside.

"Why are you so flustered?" Ji Yunlan touched the ruby pendant on her earlobe and asked casually.

"The girl asked me to stare at Xia Lian last time, I saw her crying in front of the young master cousin, as if she was talking to the young master." Ah Fu hurriedly replied.

Ji Yunlan was puzzled, "Which young master?" ”

"It's the eldest lady's mother's family, the cousin young master that the eldest girl likes!"
