Ji was not as angry as Yan Jiaojiao.
She listened to Que'er's words calmly, with no sadness or anger in her eyes.
"Madam, if you feel uncomfortable, just say it."
Tang Rui and Li Rui suffered a lot when they were young and were bought by Ji when their lives were at stake.
They were said to be maids, but in fact Ji didn't treat them like some harsh people in the past.
On the contrary, after becoming Ji's personal maids, the two of them had a transcendent status among the servants of the Hou family, and were looked down upon by the remaining maids and wives wherever they went.
It goes without saying that the two are loyal to the Ji family.
Seeing Ji's dull expression, the two pretty maids felt indescribably uncomfortable.
Others don't know, but they know it very well.
In the past few years, Madam has worked so hard for the Hou Mansion to make a comeback.
In order to make the Marquis's career in the court smooth, his wife went out of her way to please her and was cautious among the wives of the Imperial clan in the capital.
It's not easy to manage the Hou Mansion to what it is now.
The Marquis was so heartless that he tried to put his wife to death again and again!
Tang Rui's eyes were red.
Seeing her like this, Mrs. Ji smiled, "Silly girl, I didn't even cry, why are you crying?"
"I just feel worthless for Madam." Tang Rui spoke frankly and wiped the corners of her eyes.
Don't you care about the love between husband and wife?
Ji's mouth curled up, and his eyes also showed a bit of coldness.
There was no affection between them even when he brought the bird's nest porridge.
Lowering her eyes, Ji looked at the beaded red gold bracelet on her wrist and sighed softly.
"Some things can be done in advance."
The two maids, Tang Rui and Li Rui, looked at each other and nodded firmly.
Yan Jiaojiao inside was filled with mist.
What's coming up early?
She couldn't help but become a little excited.
Ji is not the kind of saint who is tolerant and magnanimous and forgives someone after being stabbed.
Nor is he a whiny monster who only complains about others after being let down.
On the contrary, judging from the fact that she got Liu Xinyue into the Hou Mansion as a concubine as soon as she took action, Yan Jiaojiao was very sure that his mother was actually a cold-hearted and ruthless person.
So she was looking forward to what Ji said would happen in advance.
Little did Ji know that her daughter inside was already anxious to watch what happened to her scumbag father.
She whispered a few words, and then told Li Rui: "Tell the people outside to keep an eye on Na Wen Po. If she escapes and dies, I will not spare her."
The next day, Yan Hongfei had to ask Zhao Si to go to the Yamen of the Ministry of War to ask for leave again.
Firstly, it was because of his foot injury, and secondly, he felt stuffy in his chest, and his head felt dizzy even when he moved slightly.
I was lying on a wicker chair in Taohuawu, closing my eyes to relax, when Yan Shuangshuang came in a hurry.
As soon as she entered the door, she saw Yan Hongfei under the flower tree.
"Brother!"
Yan Shuangshuang shouted with a cry.
Yan Hongfei opened his eyes and saw Yan Shuangshuang. He frowned for a moment and then softened his expression, "What's wrong?"
"You're still asking me what's wrong?"
Yan Shuangshuang has been crying these days, and her beautiful eyes are like rotten peaches.
She lowered her head and wiped her tears, "Let me ask you, are the Wang family going to give Wang Wei a concubine?"
Hearing this, Yan Hongfei frowned again.
"Who told you?"
He didn't even tell Ji about this matter, he was the only one in the Hou Mansion who knew about it.
Where did Yan Shuangshuang know about it?
"Are you still hiding it from me?" Yan Shuangshuang stamped her feet, "The Wang family chose a good concubine for Wang Wei with great fanfare. Who outside doesn't know? You are the only ones hiding it from me! If Jin'er hadn't gone out to buy snacks and heard it, come back and tell me, I Still in the dark!”
After saying that, Yan Shuangshuang turned around and sat on the stone bench under the tree.
Now that she knew everything, Yan Hongfei didn't want to hide it anymore.
He planned to take this opportunity to persuade his sister.
"You did go too far this time. It's okay for your father-in-law. You also offended your mother-in-law's biological sister, causing her little girl to almost hit the wall. Shuangshuang, you are not young anymore, you should be sensible."
"One of the conditions for keeping your position in the royal family is to give your brother-in-law a room of concubines."
"But don't worry, as long as I'm here, my brother-in-law doesn't care how many concubines he has, you will still be the main wife."
"Brother, do you mean to make me admit this?" Yan Shuangshuang looked at Yan Hongfei in disbelief.
"What else can we do?"
Yan Hongfei sighed, "You are my sister, and I will never harm you. Shuangshuang, only after you have endured this moment can you return to the Wang family."
Yan Shuang's lips were about to be bitten.
"Then, what if I don't go back to the Wang family anymore?"
She felt that instead of watching Wang Wei take a concubine, it would be better to make peace with her.
She is still young, has good looks, not to mention beautiful and fragrant, she is also charming and outstanding. After leaving the shabby settlement of the Wang family, where can I find a man?
Yan Hongfei's face darkened, "How dare you!"
His voice was cold, "I, the Marquis of Nan'an, don't even have a girl who has been widowed and remarried, so how can I allow you to reconcile! If you dare to have such an idea, don't blame me, my brother, for killing you with my own hands, so as not to give you any trouble to the Marquis." Discredit!"
When Yan Shuangshuang heard the words "Kill by hand", his face instantly turned pale and he stood up in shock.
"Brother, are you crazy! I am your biological sister!"
Liu Xinyue walked out of the house at this moment, holding her daughter Yan Wanwan in her arms.
"Auntie, you also know that Mr. Hou is your eldest brother, right?"
They had just pinched each other once, and Liu Xinyue had no intention of pretending to be in harmony with Yan Shuangshuang in front of Yan Hongfei.
She had already seen through Yan Hongfei's thoughts.
For the sake of face, my biological sister is not important.
So he just stood on the steps and looked at Yan Shuangshuang mockingly.
"A brother is like a father. I have never seen a younger sister scold his elder brother."
Yan Shuang raised her eyebrows, "Shut up, you bitch!"
"Master Hou!" Liu Xinyue stomped down the steps with her child in her arms, saying with tears in her eyes, "Master Hou, make the decision for me!"
Yan Hongfei has been feeling dizzy since last night.
Now I feel a throbbing pain in my forehead.
He took a deep breath, feeling uncomfortable.
Knowing that Yan Shuangshuang had a messy and unruly temperament, Yan Hongfei didn't want to tangle with her anymore, so he held his forehead with his left hand and waved his right hand.
"You go back first. The matter of my brother-in-law taking a concubine cannot be done overnight. Just take advantage of this time to get him back. As long as he is not willing to take a concubine, who can force him?"
Yan Shuangshuang lowered his head, neither agreeing nor disapproving.
Seeing her eyes twinkling, Yan Hongfei also narrowed his eyes, "Shuangshuang?"
This sentence was colder and more threatening than the tone just now.
If Yan Shuangshuang hadn't been slapped and kicked in the stomach by him a few days ago, Yan Shuangshuang might have been so frightened that he agreed.
However, what Yan Shuangshuang was thinking at this time was, you can beat me till my nose is black and my face is swollen, can you really kill me?
