Ji looked at the pale Wen Po and smiled coldly, "Bind her with a gag and send her to Chen Hai for a thorough interrogation!"
After saying that, he gave another instruction, ""
Chen Hai is the son of Grandma Chen and also the brother-in-law of the Ji family. Ji was very relieved about him.
Grandma Chen agreed and asked someone to take the stable woman out to cook.
"Madam, what about this Chunliu?"
Tang Rui asked.
Ji thought for a moment, "Go and call the housekeeper. Tell me that someone wants to harm me. This girl Chunliu is so loyal that she drank the bird's nest porridge for me. It's gone!"
Tang Rui took the order and left.
Yan Jiaojiao stared at Ji with a pair of small eyes and couldn't help but cheer.
She is indeed the daughter-in-law candidate that Old Nan'an Hou has chosen.
There are plans and means.
Mrs. Ji asked Li Rui to quickly clean up other rooms, and she hugged Yan Jiaojiao to avoid the delivery room that was filled with the smell of blood.
Yan Jiaojiao felt relieved, slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep.
She slept for a while and then woke up from hunger. Ji called two wet nurses to feed her.
Where can Yan Jiaojiao be willing to eat?
I just cried until I was out of breath.
Ji had no choice but to have someone boil thick rice oil and feed her.
Yan Jiaojiao didn't resist and drank it happily.
Seeing this, Mrs. Ji quickly ordered people to find a ewe and prepare to feed her daughter with goat's milk.
"My little ancestor, I don't know where this stubbornness comes from, and I don't want to use a wet nurse."
Yan Jiaojiao tilted her head and rubbed Ji's hand in a flattering manner.
Ji frowned when she mentioned the wet nurse.
She had prepared four neat wet nurses for her daughter early on.
But just now, only two came.
"Where are the other two wet nurses?"
Li Rui replied: "No one was found in the whole house."
Ji's frown deepened.
Ordinarily, the wet nurse who was selected to be the young master would have stayed in the Marquis Mansion a month in advance to wait.
Even if I have to go out for a while, I will say hello to Grandma Chen and others.
No one had the guts to run out secretly, and two of them escaped in one go.
"Where are the old lady and the Marquis?"
Ji asked softly.
Li Rui said hurriedly: "After Madam started the action yesterday, the old lady saw that the young lady refused to land, so she took people to Jingxin Temple to chant sutras and pray for you."
"The Marquis's servant came back with a letter last night, saying that there were important business matters at the Ministry of War yamen, and he might not be able to return home for the next two days."
Ji's heart sank slightly.
There is something wrong with this matter.
[Bah, so shameless! 】
[Reciting sutras and praying for blessings, being busy with official duties, they are all excuses! 】
[The old bastard father gave birth to a baby outside the house, so the old godmother and the scumbag father went to her place! 】
[Despicable mother and son! You also want to use a foreign woman to pretend to be me, take away my luck, and make me a useless person for the rest of my life, bah! 】
There was a familiar childish voice in my mind again.
Ji raised her eyes and saw that there were maids Tangrui and Lirui in the room.
The two of them looked normal, and they probably didn't hear anything.
He looked at his little daughter again.
Ji even felt that there was an emotion called anger on her little daughter's face.
Lowering her eyes, Ji concealed her shock.
Although she didn't know what her father meant, it was obviously not a nice thing to say.
What shocked her was that her husband actually had an affair? Mother-in-law also knew, and even went to the outer room in person?
Ji's face was calm, but her slightly trembling hands revealed her mood at this time.
In fact, starting from Wen Po and Chun Liu, Ji had a faint suspicion in her heart.
The Marquis Mansion of Nan'an is also a noble house in Beijing for several generations. Which stable woman would dare to use her evil thoughts in the Marquis Mansion?
Then there is the poison in the bird's nest porridge, which is unusual at first glance. It is colorless and tasteless, and can kill people in an instant. How can a maid from Chunliu get it?
It's just that this speculation frightened Ji and she didn't want to think about it further.
"Tang Rui."
After a long time, Ji spoke, her voice a little hoarse.
"Go and find Nanny Chen."
Tang Rui saw that Ji's expression was wrong, so she didn't dare to ask any more questions and went out immediately.
After a while, Grandma Chen came.
Mrs. Ji asked Tang Ruili to guard outside, leaving Grandma Chen alone.
"Mommy, there is something you need to ask Chen Hai to check for me."
Grandma Chen was surprised. She had brought up the Ji family, so she understood.
Ever since she was a child, Ji has always had a steady temperament, and has rarely looked as depressed and depressed as she does now.
Grandma Chen hurriedly asked: "What's the matter?"
"Tell Chen Hai to go outside the Yamen of the Ministry of War and quietly find someone to inquire. The Marquis has been in the Yamen these past two days."
When Grandma Chen heard this, she understood a little bit.
He immediately became serious, "I know!"
It's not difficult to get some news, and there's already a reply before noon.
"I asked about it from a familiar person in the Yamen. This person's hometown is also in the south, and he got to know Ah Hai a few years ago. He said..."
Grandma Chen told Mr. Ji in a low voice, "Master Hou has been on leave since he was a child."
The old man felt a little sad.
After much experience, she also guessed that if he didn't come back when his wife gave birth to a child, there must be someone outside.
Ji's original hesitation has now come to an end.
No more doubts.
She could hear her daughter's heart. Although I don’t know where my daughter learned this, it is obvious that she avoided the disaster of poisonous bird’s nests and found out about her husband’s extramarital affair because of the early warning given by her daughter.
So……
Ji looked at Yan Jiaojiao, who was sleeping soundly.
Po Wen wants to kill her daughter, and her husband's mother-in-law wants to use a concubine to pretend to be her. It's true that she thinks about it.
Ji's eyes gradually turned red, and finally seemed to be bleeding.
"Hehehe..."
Ji laughed softly, and her laughter was worse than crying.
Aunt Chen was afraid that she would be hurt by her anger during confinement, so she hurriedly advised her: "Girl, don't be sad. Men are all the same, and there is no one who doesn't cheat. We didn't know before, but now we know, let's talk to Mr. Hou. , pick up the vixen outside and come in. When we get into the house, why don’t we leave it up to you?"
Ji waved her hand to indicate to Grandma Chen that she was fine.
She tried to calm down and began to think about countermeasures.
While I was thinking about it, a child's cry suddenly came from the yard.
"Mom, mother! I have a sister, don't I?"
Following the sound, a sturdy boy of four or five years old rushed in.
Behind him, there is a slightly older boy.
These two children are Yan Rong, the eldest son of the Ji family, and Yan Jing, the second son.
Although Yan Jing is young, he is about the same height as his brother, and in terms of body shape, he is even stronger.
He rushed to the bed like a monkey, kicked off his deerskin boots and climbed onto the bed.
Yan Jiaojiao was sleeping soundly when he felt someone poking his face.
She opened her eyes angrily, and just as she was about to cry in protest, she heard a boy screaming.
"Is this my sister? Why does she look like a monkey?"
Yan Jing saw the monkey show in the vaudeville troupe last year and remembered it.
[You are the monkey, and your whole family is a monkey! 】
