When Zhao Si woke up, his eyes were filled with darkness.
He only remembered that when he went home at night, someone suddenly put a cap on his head, and then he felt a pain in the back of his head, and he didn't know anything anymore.
Something was stuffed in his mouth and he couldn't make a sound.
I tried to move, but my hands and feet were tied.
Suddenly, someone took off the bag covering his head, and then the rag in his mouth was also torn off.
The sudden light made Zhao Si feel uncomfortable and he narrowed his eyes involuntarily.
When he opened it again, Zhao Si was shocked.
The woman in gorgeous clothes was sitting at the table, looking down at the tea cup in her hand.
Behind her, stood two pretty maids, one of whom even held a child in her arms.
"Husband, madam..."
The moment Zhao Si saw Ji, he understood what happened.
Not only did Ji have the means, he was also ruthless.
Zhao Si saw this more clearly than his master Yan Hongfei.
When a fire broke out in the house outside Qingping Lane, the Marquis arranged for Liu Xinyue to enter the Hou's mansion. When the affair was exposed to the public, Liu Xinyue signed a contract of sale.
Zhao Si suspected that this was Ji's revenge earlier than Liu Xinyue.
Especially after Mr. Hou suffered a stroke, his wife took control of the inner house steadily.
He quickly won over the great aunt, and now even the old lady is looked down upon by the great aunt.
The Marquis ordered him to deliver a message to Minister Zhao, but he fell into the hands of his wife.
Zhao Si couldn't believe these operations without Ji's handiwork.
Thinking of the Marquis' explanation, Zhao Si lowered his head with a guilty conscience.
Mr. Ji put the tea cup on the table.
There was a sound that was neither light nor heavy, and Zhao Si's heart clearly fluctuated.
[Wow, my mother is so powerful! 】
Yan Jiaojiao once again applauded her mother, and thought about what it would be like for Ji to put down the teacup and raise her eyes just now.
But in a blink of an eye, I thought that Ji had a standard oval face, handsome eyebrows and bright eyes, just like everyone's matron.
However, at this moment... I touched my round and round face, and Yan Jiaojiao flattened her mouth.
Ji's half-smiling gaze fell on Zhao Si.
This Zhao Si was originally an orphan who escaped from famine. He was bought by the old Marquis. He has been serving Yan Hongfei since he was a child. He can be called Yan Hongfei's confidant.
Even the matter of raising a foreign wife, Yan Hongfei did not hide it from him.
Even after Liu Xinyue entered the mansion, he left the mansion several times with the help of Zhao Si.
"Madam..." Zhao Si was very afraid of Mr. Ji and spoke again, "I wonder what mistake I made. Madam... Madam, did you bring me here?"
Ji still looked at Zhao Si in silence until he avoided it with his eyes flickering.
"Zhao Si."
Ji finally spoke.
Her voice was as calm as ever, but her eyes looking at Zhao Si were full of sharpness.
"Master Marquis, where do you want to send the letter?"
Seeing that the person who kidnapped him was Ji, Zhao Si actually already had a guess in his mind.
"I really don't know what Madam means, please clarify."
"The Marquis has said more than once that among the people around him, in terms of loyalty and ability, you are number one."
Ji was not angry, but praised Zhao Si.
Zhao Si lowered his head, "It was the Marquis who promoted the younger one."
[Tsk, is it something to be proud of being promoted by a scumbag dad? 】
Ji took Yan Jiaojiao and held her in her arms, making her face Zhao Si.
She knew that her daughter was not an ordinary baby, but many times, when she heard her daughter's thoughts, she would find that in addition to hating Yan Hongfei, Liu Xinyue and others, this child was a little naive when it came to people and things.
Therefore, Ji will always take her daughter with her when dealing with things, even if there are some dirty tricks.
The reason is that he doesn't want his daughter to be raised too innocent and be hurt by others in the future.
For some reason, when Zhao Si looked into Yan Jiaojiao's clear eyes, he felt a surge of unreasonable guilt in his heart - when the Marquis believed Liu Xinyue's words, he planned to poison his first wife to replace his legitimate daughter, Zhao Si was knew.
Even Yan Hongfei ordered him to find the Wen woman named Zhu.
Thinking that such a fair, fat and lovely young lady was almost sent out of the house to provide luck to another young lady, and that he was an accomplice in this, Zhao Si did not dare to look at Yan Jiaojiao anymore.
Yan Jiaojiao: "?"
[I actually have such great power? 】
Her clear eyes were full of doubts.
Ji couldn't help but smile and pinched the soft flesh on her daughter's belly.
Yan Jiaojiao was tickled by this pinch and giggled.
"Zhao Si, if I remember correctly, your daughter is also this big, right?"
Zhao Si suddenly raised his head, his face full of disbelief.
There was a smile on Ji's lips, and even her eyes were warm.
"Madam, you..."
"You are an orphan brought back from the border town by the old Marquis. I want to know, who is more important in your heart, your family or the Marquis?"
Ji didn't want to talk nonsense with Zhao Si, so she raised her hand.
Tang Rui from behind placed a few pieces of paper in front of Zhao Si.
Zhao Si's eyes narrowed sharply.
He knew a few words, it was not a piece of paper, but a contract of sale between him and his family.
"Master Marquis and your family, it's your choice."
After saying that, Ji stood up and left.
Zhao Si looked at those body contracts with struggle in his eyes.
