In the main courtyard, after listening to the little maid's report on the situation of Master and Servant Mei Lin, Mrs. Yang couldn't bear to say to Aunt Mu:
"Mommy, aren't we being a little unfair to the Ji family girl?"
A flash of sarcasm flashed across Aunt Mu's face, and she comforted with a smile:
"Madam, you are kind-hearted! What's the point! That girl from the Ji family insists on following Ji Min into our house. She wants to hug the big tree in our house, and hug your thigh. She doesn't serve our house. She doesn't do anything for us. If you make some sacrifices, why should we protect her?"
Yang sighed: "They are also pitiful. It is normal for them to be far away from their parents and relatives and to seek some protection."
Aunt Mu's eyes were cold: "Please protect me, Madam, and be a humble little girl, like Miss Yuyan, who behaves well and acts like a treasure, and anyone can love them a little. But she chose not to take the right path and deceived Madam! I must not do this." Forbearance! Don’t blame me for being so disgusted."
There was some hesitation in Yang's eyes: "Mommy, but she has never confiscated a penny from me! And she also paid a lot of money herself. It doesn't count as cheating on me."
Aunt Mu said disdainfully:
"That's because she is cunning. She is using her tricks to catch the big fish! She wants something from her wife. She will rely on her to find a good husband in the future. As the adopted daughter of Mrs. Hou, she will be better than that fourth-grade general. If my niece is much nobler, she can marry into a high-ranking family. When the time comes, she will need to be grateful for Madam's kindness. Shouldn't she pay some price and temper her temper now?"
Yang's lips moved, but finally she didn't speak.
In the study, Hong Peiju narrowed her eyes slightly and asked the secret guard with a normal expression:
"How is Liu Bisheng's recovery?"
The secret guard stood with his hands down and said: "It has recovered to the point where it can move."
Hong Peiju nodded slightly.
Taking refuge in Concubine Jiao Xian was also a last resort.
Obviously the one who is worried and worried is himself.
Liu Bisheng was finally trained, but he had an accident, but he took the responsibility himself. He almost got a son, but he only got 20,000 taels of silver!
Now, he tried his best to cure Liu Bisheng, but he had to give him away.
Properly "make wedding clothes for others"!
So what? The Marquis of Huai'an has been powerless for many years, and there is nothing he can do now except rely on others.
Fortunately, the Ji sisters are in the Hou Mansion, so everything can be planned!
Thinking of this, Hong Peiju showed a sinister smile, picked up a brocade box, opened it, and found a jade bracelet inside the box.
The boy came in in response. Hong Peiju said to the boy kindly:
"Send this to Aunt Su in Kejiju."
After the rain, the sky cleared up, and Ji Jun and Ji Min waited to come to "Good Neighbors".
As soon as he entered the door, Uncle Pan said anxiously: "Miss, the unconscious guest officer has escaped!"
The person who was poisoned and fell into coma at the "Good Neighbor" was later sent to a house far away from the city center. This was a property owned by Uncle Pan.
Sometimes Uncle Pan uses it to entertain friends from out of town.
Most of the time it is idle, leaving only a couple over fifty to look at the yard.
The couple who looked after the yard, known as Uncle Chu and Mrs. Chu, were worried that they would have difficulty taking care of the patient, so they specially asked the Wen brothers to come over and help.
Uncle Pan said that the guest officer called himself Li and he went to the border to do business. He lost money and had to come back. Unexpectedly, he was poisoned in "Good Neighbor".
Uncle Chu asked him where he lived, whether he owned a shop or worked for the shop owner, and who was in his family.
If you have any requests, just ask them, and the owner of "Good Neighbor" will try his best to meet them.
This time I was poisoned in "Good Neighbors" and passed out for such a long time. Is your family or shop owner very anxious? Our "Good Neighbors" will send you a message and bring them to visit you...
Chu Bo hoped to wait until his family came to discuss a solution together.
The eldest lady said that she will compensate you well. If you are really disabled, the "good neighbor" will take care of you. Where can you find such a good boss who is willing to take responsibility? If it were someone else, they would throw you out while you were unconscious. What else could you do? Sample?
As a result, this guest officer Li said nothing!
The less he said anything, the more worried Aunt Chu Bochu and the Wen brothers became!
He must be thinking about the sky-high asking price!
If he doesn't tell, his family or boss may already know.
After all, many people knew about the poisoning of the "good neighbor" at the time and could not hide it. Moreover, Ji Jun had no intention of hiding it.
Ji Jun felt that there was no need to go to great lengths to hide it, it was not worth it.
She came from the 21st century. People's gossip psychology has an expiration date. As long as there is new gossip, no matter how popular the current rumors are, they will soon be replaced and forgotten!
Uncle Chu was worried that Guest Officer Li's relatives and friends just wanted to wait for him to regain his strength before cheering up and causing trouble or filing a lawsuit!
After discussing with Uncle Pan, Ji Jun decided to wait and see what happens.
If people don't tell me, there might be something hidden.
In this case, the Wen brothers paid closer attention to this guest officer Li, and soon discovered that this guest officer always seemed to be looking for opportunities to escape. However, he may not have recovered his physical strength, so he never managed to escape:
The first time was during the day. At that time, Guest Officer Li had just been awake for two days and was swaying when he took two steps. Uncle Chu found that Guest Officer Li had walked out of the yard on his own. Before he could stop him, Guest Officer Li hit the big tree outside the door and fainted again!
The second time was at night, when I bumped into a stone bench in the yard and then hit a stone table! Rolled to the ground! The Wen brothers rushed out and helped him in!
The third time was in the evening, because Uncle Chu and the Wen brothers paid special attention to Guest Officer Li, so this Guest Officer Li was also very honest.
But at that time, his appetite increased greatly and his body recovered a lot. Wen Chuhui particularly noticed that although Guest Officer Li was thin, he was very strong and had well-developed muscles.
Before dinner, Guest Officer Li took the opportunity to use the toilet as an excuse, jumped over the wall and ran out.
As a result, when Chu Bo and Wen Chuhui chased him out, they saw Guest Officer Li holding on to the wall and groping forward...
Uncle Chu looked at the courtyard wall, which was more than one foot high, and was completely confused:
His skills are so strong that he can jump over the wall without a ladder, but he has to hold on to the wall when he reaches flat ground!
I thought I had broken my legs and feet, but when I checked, they were not broken anywhere!
What's the point?
When Haitang heard this, she reminded uneasily: "Miss, is this what we call "ghosts beating the wall" in the countryside?"
Ji Jun had only heard of "Ghost on the Wall" before, and there seemed to be a movie about it, but he had never seen it.
Don't know the details either. Don't know what to say.
Uncle Pan frowned and said, "I heard that "ghosts breaking into walls" always appear at night, and in places like cemeteries. In broad daylight..."
Uncle Pan shook his head, puzzled.
Haitang involuntarily shrank her shoulders and looked around. Maybe I'm worried about encountering ghosts during the day...
After thinking for a while, Shaoyao suddenly realized: "Miss, I understand!"
Ji Jun said indifferently: "What do you know again!"
Shaoyao's eyes flashed: "He must have been smoked by feces!"
"Pfft!" Uncle Pan spat out a mouthful of water, and then he kept coughing.
Shaoyao continued: "Miss, don't you remember? When we were in the countryside, there was an old man who was very strong, but when he was digging out excrement, he fainted. My wife said that the old man was smoked by the excrement!"
Although Ji Jun didn't know about this old man, he knew that the situation Shaoyao said was caused by "methane".
Biogas is methane, produced mainly from swamps, sewage ditches or cesspools, which is not the same thing at all!
The more Shaoyao talked, the more she felt that her guess was reasonable, and she added enthusiastically: "This guest officer Li is really unlucky. When he went out from the front door, he encountered a lot of excrement! When he went out from the back, he still encountered a lot of excrement! This kind of luck, tsk tsk! Absolutely Miss! , tell me, should he take a gamble, maybe he can get rich all of a sudden!"
Ji Jun was so angry that he flicked the peony and his brain collapsed:
"What's the point of gambling! How can we get rich! If we go out and encounter excrement, how can it be the same? If we encounter excrement, we will faint. We don't even need to go out! We have to fall into a cesspit to faint!"
After saying this, Ji Jun suddenly felt that something was wrong...
Uncle Pan, "..."
I spent so much money to buy a big house with three entrances and three exits, and it was built in a manure pit!
Uncle Chu, "..."
Well, my wife and I have lived in a cesspit for so many years.
Wen Chuhui helped his forehead...
As soon as I went out, I encountered feces and was smoked down. If I were lucky enough to go to the casino, Yang Guifei would not be able to go in and Zhao Feiyan would come out!
Today, the Wen brothers and Uncle Chu accompanied him to "Good Neighbors".
As soon as he got on the carriage, Mr. Li raised the curtain and kept looking outside. When he was about two miles away from the "good neighbor", he suddenly jumped out of the carriage and couldn't find it in the blink of an eye!
Uncle Pan was a little anxious. Every year, businessmen in the capital were found to make trouble, and there were too many who took the opportunity to cause trouble.
Uncle Pan asked anxiously: "Is he from the capital himself? Now that he has woken up, he will go back to find people to make trouble, or will he go directly to the Yamen to sue us?"
Ji Junxiang could only prepare for it now.
Uncle Pan asked the guys to be careful. Everyone should prepare a handy weapon. They can't use knives, nor can they hurt people!
Broom, broom, feather duster, rolling pin... If someone comes to cause trouble, you can respond at any time.
well! It’s difficult! There was also "touching porcelain" in ancient times!
Ji Jun also asked people to go to Dali Temple to find Mr. Lan and ask him to come and take care of him when he had time. If a few official officials from Dali Temple can come, the situation can be stabilized.
In addition, there are a few beggars with good connections in front of the door. When I talk to them, they are very happy and agree to help. If I can beat them, I will beat them. If I can't beat them, I will help report the news. Now they are waiting outside.
I waited in fear for more than an hour, but there was no movement.
"Good Neighbor" Everyone was a little relieved, guessing that maybe they were too nervous.
But they saw Li Mi striding into the hall with Zhan Xiao and a few others, bluntly saying that they wanted to see Ji Jun. Uncle Pan hurriedly invited them to the private room on the second floor.
Ji Jun and Ji Min were waiting for news in the backyard. After receiving the news from the waiter, they quickly came to the second floor.
When Li Mi saw Ji Jun, his brows furrowed slightly, his face looked unhappy, and he asked in a deep voice, "Have you put away this person's things?"
Ji Jun is confused, who is he? what?
Li Mi pointed at a middle-aged man behind him. He was tall, thin, and not impressive in appearance, but his eyes were as bright as a torch. Looking at each other made people feel a sense of coercion.
This feeling was different from the feeling that Zhan Xiao and other guards gave Ji Jun.
Uncle Pan stepped forward and said quietly to Ji Jun: "This person is the unconscious guest officer!"
"Oh!" Ji Jun nodded: "Guan Li? Are you from the Li Family Army? Or from the Duke Li's Palace?"
Li Keguan's face was expressionless and he cupped his hands: "Miss Ji, thank you for taking care of me for many days! Please return my clothes and belongings, Miss Ji!"
Ji Jun felt ridiculous, looking at him as if he had coveted some of his precious treasures!
Ji Jun smiled and said bluntly: "Your clothes are too dirty. At that time, you were injured and it was very troublesome to take them off. I ordered people to cut the clothes and take them off. I checked to see if there was anything on fire! You can take them with you." I don’t have any silver, just a few pennies, and some dry food. Calculate how much these things cost, and I’ll pay! Ten times as much!”
Can't Li Mi help him "make porcelain"?
Li Mi, the clinker, stood up: "Dry food? Is it steamed buns? Where is it?"
Ji Jun was startled, looked at Li Mi blankly, nodded numbly, and murmured: "It's a cornbread, throw it away!"
Li Mi's face became even more ugly, and he held back and asked as patiently as possible: "Where did you throw it?"
Ji Jun looked a little scared when he looked at Li Mi. Li Mi had always been a handsome young man who was as gentle as jade and as warm as spring. Now he looked like this——
Kind of, hmm! Want to eat people!
Ji Jun pointed at Shaoyao, and Shaoyao tried hard to think about it and said:
"Young Master, all those slop buckets were thrown into the swill bucket! Then, the swill bucket was taken by Uncle Liang who raised pigs in the suburbs to feed the pigs! But now, it is estimated that they have all turned into pig manure!"
"You!" Guest Officer Li slammed his fist on the table! A hole appears on the desktop!
"You pay for my cornstarch!" Guest Officer Li shouted!
Ji Jun and Ji Min subconsciously took a step back and leaned against each other involuntarily.
Li Mi shot a sharp look, and Guest Officer Li quickly lowered his head, put away his fists, and sat down angrily.
Seeing this, Shaoyao opened her arms and stood in front of Ji Jun Ji Min: "What are you doing! Isn't it just a few brats? I'll pay you! Why are you scaring our lady! We even saved your life!"
Ji Min looked worried and said angrily:
"Cousin, I have something to say. What's wrong?"
Li Mi's face turned black and he sighed heavily:
"That's not an ordinary Wotou, it's the information sent back by the Li family army!"
