597 Chapter 120 Uncle?
Huang didn't believe that Ji Yiren would take a fancy to Zhu Lei: "It's not that the maid looks down on Sister He and Jiang's 'squire' guard's disciples, but although Zhu Lei is an honest, loyal and filial good boy, his face is also loyal and kind, and he is not liked by 'girl' children." Because of this, when he first returned to the imperial capital earlier, Sister He wanted to tell him a clever handmaid, but many of them looked down on him. How can Miss Ji also be Mrs.'s righteous 'daughter', and she is also born with a 'flower' appearance and moon appearance, how can she fall in love with him? ”
He also said, "Calculating her age, Miss Ji is only ten years old this year, so she may not have that mind at this half-year-old age, right?" ”
Zhu Lei is burly and old, and the person who has just been crowned looks like he is in his first year. In addition, when he speaks like a bell, even if he is not angry, there seems to be a vicious air flow 'exposed', and it is easy to be mistaken for fierce. It's really not the kind of 'girl' kids like. But Wei Changying was suspicious and said: "If this is the case, this kid specially came to ask Zhu Lei what to do?" ”
"Could it be that you really want to learn the art of beating magpies with stones?" Huang guessed.
"Jiang Bo doesn't have any errands in the team now, not to mention that I am her stepmother, aren't they all closer than Zhu Lei?"
Huang smiled and said: "But Miss Ji and Jiang's 'Attendant' are not familiar with each other, Madam, you are very busy, I hope Miss Ji is sensible, I am afraid that I will delay you, so I ask like this...... Want to see if you're free? ”
"According to what my aunt said, this kid is not asking Zhu Lei, but me?" Wei Changying always felt that it was wrong, but what Huang said also made sense, Ji Yiren, who was only ten years old, was usually not at the age of moving his 'spring' heart.
She thought for a while and said, "Auntie, let's try to ask the people around Yan'er." ”
In fact, Shen Shuyan should be asked to come over and ask about this matter, but Wei Changying knew that this niece and daughter were very good with Ji Yiren, and the two were usually inseparable. Even if Shen Shuyan listened to her aunt's words and didn't tell Ji Yiren, she was called away alone, and Ji Yiren could guess it.
It's just that the Huang family didn't see the vacancy and called Shen Shuyan's left and right 'women' to interrogate the scene of the day, and after leaving the next day, Ji 'Chun' Mian first went to Wei Changying's carriage to find her.
At this time, Wei Changying was calling his two sons to talk in front of him, Shen Shuxie was young and naughty, his attention turned quickly, and he lost interest after listening to a few words, so he took the deputy nine rings and asked Wei Changying to tear them down for him. Wei Changying reprimanded a few words lightly, and then relied on him, bowing his head and dismantling them one by one.
When the third ring was dismantled, the car curtain was lifted, and Ji 'Chun' Mian walked in, and when he saw Shen Shuguang and Shen Shuxie there, he smiled: "Where are the two sons?" ”
Shen Shuguang hurriedly got up to greet her: "Aunt Ji!" ”
Although Shen Shuxie is naughty, he has been taught in the end, but he also knows etiquette, and he also followed his brother to salute, and said hello angrily.
Ji 'Chun' Mian has no son because she has no son, and her father Ji Gu regrets this the most in his life, so he has always paid attention to boys. Shen Shuguang and Shen Shuxie inherited the good looks of their parents, and they are both people who know etiquette, especially she likes them. At this moment, he hurriedly helped one by one, and said with a smile: "It doesn't deserve the gift of the two sons." ”
Wei Changying also got up and called Sister Ji, asked her to sit down together, and said with a smile: "I was just about to send them to the back, so I asked my sister to come over and chat for a while." I don't want my sister to come by herself. ”
"There's something I want to tell you." After Ji 'Chun' Mian became familiar with Wei Changying, he always spoke directly, and he didn't greet him at the moment, so he said to himself.
Wei Changying immediately thought of Ji Yiren's diligence yesterday, and patted the second son who was wrapped up with the nine rings knowingly: "Xie'er, let's play with your second brother, I want to talk to your aunt Ji for my mother." ”
Shen Shuxie pulled her skirt and coquettishly said: "Mother has relieved the rest for the child!" ”
Ji 'Chun' Mian glanced at him a little embarrassed, and was about to say that he would come back later, when the sensible Shen Shuguang came up and said, "Fourth brother, I'll dismantle it for you, you go to my carriage?" ”
Since the breakthrough, Shen Shuguang's 'temperament' has changed greatly, and Shen Shuxie and this brother don't have much fun. At this moment, he pursed his lips and was about to refuse, but Shen Shuguang leaned into his ear and whispered, "You don't want to learn words today!" ”
Shen Shuxie, who was forced by him to learn to read words every day, was suddenly overjoyed, nodded busily, and was obediently led away by him.
Looking at the back of the little brother, Ji 'Chun' Mian couldn't help but say enviously: "Sister Wei is really blessed, there are two such good little sons." ”
"Iren is also a good boy." Wei Changying smiled lightly, "When I was pregnant with Xie'er, I hoped to be a 'girl'!" It's a pity that it's not just a son, this kid is so naughty now, and it's a headache! ”
"How many people can't ask for such a headache?" Ji 'Chun' Mian sighed with emotion and said, "I can't hide it, what I want to say to my sister has something to do with the Yiren." ”
Wei Changying looked around and said, "Sister is going to say it now?" "It's asking if there is a need to clear the site.
Ji Chun Mian shook his head: "Sister, the people here are all tight-lipped, and there is nothing bad to say about this to the outside world - does my sister remember my righteous brother Lai Dayong?" ”
Wei Changying was surprised: "Naturally, I remember that I was originally in the 'Meng' Mountain Gang, but later ...... What's wrong? ”
Since Lai Qinniang colluded with Mo Binwei to calculate the 'Meng' Mountain Gang, Ji Gu was extremely angry. Later, because of Ji Qu's illness, Ji Gu no longer needed the 'Meng' Mountain Gang to collect wealth and retreat, but for the sake of his descendants, he began to work hard to be a serious person - he disbanded the 'Meng' Mountain Gang after the 'Jade' mine in the 'Meng' Mountain was found.
Without the 'Meng' Mountain Gang, Lai Dayong, the original leader of the 'Meng' Mountain Gang, would not be able to become a puppet...... As for where he went, this kind of little person, Wei Changying really didn't pay attention.
"Brother he was ashamed of his father because of his sister-in-law, after the dissolution of the 'Meng' Mountain Gang, I wanted to invite him to live with Ji Yuan, and it was also convenient for him to 'serve' his father, but he didn't dare to be in front of his father, so he set up a small courtyard outside the city to live alone, which was quite least." Ji Chun Mian sighed, "When Yiren saw Zhu Zhuangshi yesterday, they remembered her uncle. ”
Speaking of which, Wei Changying felt that he probably understood, so he asked tentatively: "Sister Ji wants Lai to help the master...... Oh, do you want Brother Ling to come to the Shen family to be a 'squire' guard? ”
"I don't know what the Shen family's 'guard' wants, but when Yiren saw Zhu Zhuangshi, he felt that my brother's martial arts should be above it, so he told me. I think my brother-in-law is now in the prime of life, and it is pitiful to be in the countryside like this. Ji 'Chun' said, "So I want to trust my sister...... Even if he can't be a 'squire', it's better to give him any errand than to hide in the house all day. ”
Wei Changying groaned and said, "This is not a problem, but it is Sister Ji, your brother-in-law, how can you send it casually?" But I don't know what strengths or interests he has in addition to good martial arts? "She trusts Dayong's martial arts to be more 'colorful' than Zhu Lei, both of them are in the prime of life, Lai Dayong is older than Zhu Lei, and his skills are naturally much deeper.
Second, Lai Dayong was originally the leader of the 'Meng' Mountain Gang, known as the No. 1 bandit gang in 'Meng' Mountain. Even if he, the gang leader, is actually a puppet controlled by Ji Gu's '' behind the scenes, but as the head of the gang, if the martial arts are not successful, even if there is slow 'sex' poison and 'medicine' to assist in control, it is impossible for the people below to take it.
However, Lai Dayong is an outsider in the end, no matter how good his skills are, the more important places must not be as reassuring as "thorny fences".
Moreover, he has a close relationship with the Ji family, and Ji 'Chun' Mian said that he would give him something to do, and it would be difficult to give him things that were too low.
Wei Changying hadn't arrived in Xiliang at the moment, so he didn't know the specific situation, and he brought a lot of people this time, so he couldn't think of any suitable placement method for a while, so he asked carefully.
Ji 'Chun' Mian smiled and said: "Sister, you don't know our background, we are all from the countryside, except for a little thing that everyone in the countryside can do, what else can you know?" ”
"Then let's discuss it again after we get to Xiliang?" Wei Changying saw her answer like this, so he said.
Ji Chun Mian nodded: "Then everything is 'handed over' to my sister." ”
"Sister, don't worry, it's just a trivial matter." Wei Changying smiled slightly, as if inadvertently said, "I said that yesterday's Yiren was different from usual, it turned out that it was for her uncle's sake?" This kid is too outward, she just said no? Sister Lao, you run this trip. ”
Ji 'Chun' was a little embarrassed: "This kid ...... In the past, when I was in Caojiabao, I was very busy, and I didn't pay attention to her, so there were no rules......"
"Sister, don't think I'm disgusted that the people don't usually serve me tea and pour water in person, you think that our family is not short of people, why bother the children to do this? I was happy to see the 'spirit' of her bouncing with Yan'er. Wei Changying interrupted her with a smile, "To tell the truth, Jing'er is a good boy, sensible and quiet, but now I would like her to ride a horse with Yan'er and Yiren and relax!" ”
"The eldest lady is very quiet, and I'm afraid that Yiren won't be able to learn one percent of her temperament in this life." Ji 'Chun' Mian smiled bitterly and said, "But then again, how can Yiren compare with the eldest lady?" ”
Wei Changying laughed and said that she was humble, and that the Daojiyi people were not ordinary 'girl' children...... After saying this, Ji 'Chun' Mian said goodbye and left.
After she left, Wei Changying and the Huang family immediately whispered to the rest of the people: "Listen to Sister Ji's meaning, but it has nothing to do with Zhu Lei?" ”
"Isn't it?" The Huang family breathed a sigh of relief, she and the He family were like sisters, Zhu Lei was the personal disciple of the He family's husband, and of course the Huang family had to take care of him - although Wei Changying suspected that Ji Yiren had taken a fancy to Zhu Lei, but this was also a troublesome matter.
First, the Ji Yi people are still young, but the He family's husband 'wife' wanted to marry Zhu Lei two years earlier; and the second is that the Ji Yi people are Wei Changying's righteous 'daughter', but Zhu Lei - if it weren't for the disparity in status, he would be Wei Changying's junior brother, and he is not the same generation as the Ji Yi people at all.
Even if this generation gap is relatively vague, it still exists in the eyes of the Huang family, who treats Zhu Lei as a nephew.
So whether it is the Ji Yi people who look down on Zhu Lei, or Zhu Lei who looks down on the Ji Yi people, the Huang family doesn't want it to happen.
Now listening to Ji Yiren's mother Ji 'Chun' Mian saying that Ji Yiren's dedication yesterday was for her uncle Lai Dayong, the Huang family was of course happy.
Wei Changying was still a little confused: "Zhu Lei thought of her uncle Lai Dayong's future...... This is not something that cannot be said, why did this child ask Zhu Lei last night and leave, without mentioning her uncle at all? ”
Huang said with a smile: "Although Miss Ji is ten years old, as Mrs. Ji said, she has no one to teach her well when she is young, so it is inevitable that things will be a little upside down. Just like yesterday, our fourth son, one moment ago he was still asking who Huo Dagongzi was, and the next moment he remembered the glutinous rice ball...... Madame said yes? ”
"Perhaps." Wei Changying groaned for a moment, feeling that her stepmother was just enough, Ji 'Chun' Mian was the biological mother of Ji Yiren, and she was also a 'shrewd' person, and it was not so easy for Ji Yi people to deceive her.
She didn't know that Ji 'Chun' Mian was busy presiding over all the things in Caojiabao before the birth of her 'daughter', and after she was born, Ji Yiren was basically raised by her grandfather while scolding, and later lived in Mingpei Hall, and then met Shen Shuyan and was inseparable from Shen Shuyan, and there were not many Chenguang who got along with her biological mother......
