Ji Shu asked immediately, with undisguised anger on his handsome face.
He heard it clearly just now.
Arrogant at first and respectful at the end, capricious, he is simply a villain!
Where can I find the appearance of a descendant of the Hou family who understands etiquette and is motivated as my sister said in her previous letters?
What a villain!
Mrs. Ji pulled him to sit down, smiled and looked at this younger brother who was not yet a weakling, but was very willing to stand up for himself, and felt very happy.
"Let's not mention him first. I want to ask you, why did you come here in person? Brother didn't say anything in the letter."
Ji Shu was a little embarrassed and scratched his hair, "I wanted to see my niece. Besides, I was admitted in the autumn of last year, and my father told me to try for next year's spring exam."
He smiled shyly, "Actually, my articles are not very popular yet."
Ji didn't see it that way.
"The ancients said, 'Fifty Young Scholars'. How old are you? It's rare to be able to win the Mid-Autumn Festival at this age. Who wouldn't say it? Tell me, just give it a try. Even if you don't win, it doesn't matter. It’s time to gain experience.”
There were no restrictions on imperial examinations for merchants in this dynasty.
As a wealthy family in the south of the Yangtze River, the Ji family naturally supported their children to take the imperial examination and become officials.
Up to now, there are several clansmen who have come forward.
But as the head of Ji's natal family, Ji Shu was the first to win the title of candidate.
The brother has become successful, and Ji's face becomes brighter.
In just a few words, Ji had already mentally recounted how she would plan for this year.
"You can stay in the Marquis Mansion so that I can take care of you." Ji said, "I'll talk to Princess Cheng later and see if I can let you go to the Imperial College to study."
Ji Shu nodded.
The Ji family actually has a house in Beijing, and Ji Shu originally wanted to live in his own house so as not to cause trouble to his sister.
But when she heard her brother-in-law's attitude when talking to her sister, she changed her plan.
He had to stay and take a good look to see if his sister was being bullied in the Hou Mansion.
Yan Rong liked this gentle uncle very much. She took Ji Shu's hand and asked Ji, "Mom, can uncle live with me?"
Ji Shu ruffled his hair.
Mrs. Ji smiled and said, "My uncle is the elder, so I have to arrange a proper courtyard for your uncle alone."
[Uncle beauty, uncle beauty! 】
Yan Jiaojiao became anxious when Ji Shu came in and didn't even look at her or give her a hug for a long time.
His limbs were twisting together, trying to get Ji Shu to see him.
Ji was so amused that she picked her up and put her into Ji Shu's arms, "Look at your niece!"
Then he told Ji Shu, "There is no need to see the old lady today. It is not convenient for her to be there. I will take you to see her personally when I have free time."
Record the promise.
He also heard it just now, saying that the old lady hurt her face.
Although he really wanted to see the joke, the young boy in Jishu held it back.
While Mrs. Ji was arranging a place for her younger brother, she never forgot about Liu Xinyue in Lihuayuan.
She pointed to a few gold and jade toys and purses, and asked Tang Rui to take someone to deliver them to Liu Xinyue.
"Just say it's my gift to the little girl to celebrate her full moon."
Tang Rui agreed and went, and came back not long after. She couldn't help but smile and said to Ji, "Madam, you didn't see that the face of the Liu family is like a colorful silk shop, sometimes red and sometimes purple."
Liu Xinyue has become "from the Liu family" in her mouth.
Mrs. Ji smiled and was sewing in her hands - the weather was getting hotter and she wanted to make a little bellyband for her daughter with her own hands.
This is also the only female celebrity she can do well.
"She lives in a small corner. The baby's full moon is a big event. There is a deserted place, but here there are many guests. Comparing the two, she naturally becomes angry."
Grandma Chen gloated, "She deserves it. She deserves to have a taste of it."
After holding Yan Jiaojiao for two steps, Grandma Chen kissed Yan Jiaojiao's cheek, "Our young lady is so popular! Others, please tell her to cry!"
Liu Xinyue was indeed crying.
Not only did she cry, but she cried in a particularly emotional way.
In the spring night, the half-full moon rises, and the shadows of the trees in the Lihua Courtyard are dancing.
Liu Xinyue stood under the pear tree dressed in white.
At this time, the pear blossoms have not bloomed, but the old branches have sprouted new leaves.
Yan Hongfei walked behind her and saw Liu Xinyue's frail but straight back under the bright moonlight.
"Why are you standing here?" Facing Liu Xinyue, Yan Hongfei always had an unconscious tenderness.
This was different from the gentleness he deliberately pretended to be in front of Ji, and it came from the bottom of his heart.
Liu Xinyue did not turn around.
After a long time, she said something in a low voice.
Yan Hongfei didn't hear clearly, but he heard the cry in her voice, and he hurriedly pulled her shoulders to make her face him.
Sure enough, Liu Xinyue's snow-white face was already stained with tears.
"Ayue, what's wrong with you?"
Yan Hongfei was so distressed that he wanted to hold her tightly in his arms to comfort her.
Liu Xinyue struggled out, in great pain.
"Hongfei, I often think that I insisted on returning to the capital to be with you. Did I do something wrong?"
"What do you say?" Yan Hongfei became anxious and grabbed Liu Xinyue's arm, "Didn't we agree that we should stay together forever!"
Liu Xinyue shook her head with tears, "But things seem to be out of our control. Just today, your wife sent me a few more gold and jade items, saying they were for Wanwan's full moon gift. I didn't know that she Are you humiliating me or pitying me?"
"Hongfei, I miss my parents and my brother!"
In Yan Hongfei's heart, Liu Xinyue always looked confident and had everything under control.
Have you ever been so vulnerable?
It seems that letting her temporarily live in the Hou Mansion was a wrong decision.
"Ever since I entered the Hou Mansion, I have always been inferior to others. Not only am I a head shorter than your wife, but even our night and night are made fun of by people in the Hou Mansion - they all say that these children were born on the same day. , is also divided into clouds and mud. The daughter of the Hou family is as high as the clouds in the sky, but Wanwan is like the mud on the ground, and can be trampled on by anyone at will."
Yan Hongfei said angrily: "Who is so bold!"
"Everyone in the house." Liu Xinyue wiped away her tears and sneered, "What is this? The servants are just watching the master act and flattering others. We are here to fight against the autumn wind, so don't step on us hard. It’s a good show of loyalty.”
"I am now postpartum. Have you found a house outside?" Liu Xinyue has been living there for these days, and she is not sure whether Ji's set the fire.
She didn't want to stay any longer.
Regardless of whether Mrs. Ji realizes it or not, the risk of staying in the Marquis Mansion is always too great, and she cannot use many methods.
Yan Hongfei thought the same thing.
"Ah Yue, please be patient for a few more days. I have limited money, and now I have to manage Shangguan again, preparing to be promoted to a doctor in the Ministry of War. When I am promoted, I will be able to take charge of the Armed Forces Department, which is a lucrative job."
There was finally light in Liu Xinyue's red eyes.
