The boy who came to report became even more sweaty when he heard this.
He wiped the sweat from his forehead and hurriedly stopped Ji Chengde's sentimental words: "Master... Master..."
Ji Chengde looked at him impatiently: "What? Is it possible that he wants to invite him for his father?"
"No, no! The young master didn't think about you at all. As soon as he followed the young lady into the house, he went straight to the old lady's yard... It doesn't look like he came to find you!"
As soon as the boy said these words, Ji Chengde's mouth full of tea almost spurted out at once.
"Shut up! What did you say!"
The boy looked at him sadly: "But the young master went to the old lady's yard and didn't even think of coming over here."
Feeling that everyone's eyes were almost on him, Ji Chengde felt a little like a light on his back.
There was some emptiness in his heart, but he tried his best to suppress it. Ji Chengde still smiled and spoke with determination.
"My child is filial. I think my grandma is not in good health. I will go see her first and she will be here in a while. We'd better wait a little longer."
He is his father, and Ji Lingxiao still takes his surname. The fact that he accepted the post and came to Ji Mansion is proof that he has himself in his heart!
This cannot be changed no matter what!
Seeing Ji Chengde's determined look, the adults slowly withdrew their suspicious eyes, suppressed their impatience, and continued to wait.
As they spoke, Ji Wanrong and Xie Lingxiao had arrived at the old lady's Wutong Garden.
Wutong Garden is very quiet and clean. Although there are no more people coming and going in the past, there is no undercurrent like before.
When Ji Wanrong stepped through the threshold, the old lady had just gotten up from the bed.
Although what happened in Ji Mansion recently has been very unsatisfactory, the old lady's face is better than before, and her body looks stronger than before.
"Grandma, you seem to be in good spirits lately. Have you been taking your medicine?"
Ji Wanrong watched the mute woman washing the old lady. She stepped forward to take the handkerchief, and Xie Lingxiao also stepped forward.
The old lady turned her head when she heard the voice, and when she saw Ji Wanrong, her eyes suddenly lit up.
"Rong'er, Ling Xiao!"
She grabbed Ji Wanrong's wrist tightly and looked up and down Ji Wanrong's body: "Your health, how is your health? Grandma keeps saying she wants to visit you, but she always can't make it in time."
Ji Wanrong's eyes were a little sore and he nodded towards her: "I'm fine. Everything has passed. I've taken good care of myself."
Mrs. Ji nodded, and then looked at Xie Lingxiao. She stared closely at Xie Lingxiao's legs: "Lingxiao's legs are finally healed. Grandma wants to see you look like today in her dreams. I heard that you returned the favor yesterday. One pawn saved the holy driver. But you also have to pity your own body!"
Xie Lingxiao's eyes were a little moist as he listened: "Grandma, why don't you move out and live with me and my sister? If anything happens, we can take care of you."
"After we divorced, I lived in Xie's house. Now there is nothing missing in the house, but it is empty. Probably only a grandmother is missing."
As Ji Wanrong showed her face, she took the opportunity to touch the old lady's pulse with her fingers. She felt relieved when she realized that her health was really better than before.
But when the old lady heard the word "harmony" in Ji Wanrong's mouth, she was slightly startled. She looked up at Ji Wanrong, wanting to say something.
Ji Wanrong looked at her stunned look for a long time, knowing that she felt uncomfortable, and wanted to explain, but saw the old lady nodded heavily.
"It's good to make peace, it's good to make peace! Don't care about the king and nobles, we don't care about you! It was Rong'er who suffered in the past, but after peace and separation, all the hardships will be over and the joy will come!"
Ji Wanrong was stunned. He didn't expect that his grandmother, who was nearly seventy years old, could still accept her proposal to divorce her husband's family.
She slowly raised her head, only to see that the old lady was just looking at her with a smile. She seemed to have remembered something else when looking at her.
"But I won't go there. Grandma will be here to watch over Ji Chengde and take care of Brother Xing... He is really a poor child."
"With me sitting in charge, I can keep this Marquis...Ji Mansion from having any big troubles. This is the evil that I gave birth to, and I should repay it."
Ji Wanrong heard the deep sadness in her tone. Although her grandmother didn't say it on the surface, she must have felt extremely uncomfortable in her heart when she saw the huge Hou Mansion collapse.
She didn't want to mention the matter again, but changed the topic.
"Grandma, what were you thinking when you looked at me just now?"
The old lady slowly lowered her eyes, and her voice became deeper: "I just thought of your mother. If she had reconciled at that time, there would be no need..."
Ji Wanrong was stunned again, and then she was happy. She didn't expect that her grandmother would take the initiative to mention their mother.
She raised her head and looked at Xie Lingxiao, then asked urgent questions.
"Grandma, can I listen to you tell me about my mother?"
"Recently, my brother and I met an old friend. The old friend said that I looked so much like her lady, which made me feel strange."
"I never knew what my mother looked like, what she liked, where she came from... Do I really look like her?"
When the old lady heard Ji Wanrong's words, she obviously did not expect that Ji Wanrong would meet Xie Xijun's former friend.
She stared blankly at Ji Wanrong's face for a long time, as if reminiscing, and then sighed.
"Yes, it's time for you to know that it's me, I can't help Xijun, otherwise, she wouldn't be like this."
Tears welled up in the old lady's cloudy eyes, and in her old voice, Ji Wanrong followed her into memories of the past.
"Xijun doesn't have a natal family, and I don't know where she is from. She never told her, and I didn't ask. She looks very similar to you. She is very beautiful. Once you take one look at her, you will never forget her. The presence."
Ji Wanrong frowned slightly as he listened.
She originally thought that the original owner's mother's mother's family was at most low-income, but she did not expect that even the old lady did not know her place of origin, origin, and mother's family.
"Then...how did my mother meet him?" Xie Lingxiao couldn't help but ask.
And she has so many land deeds, shops and houses.
She was an orphan, where did all this come from?
The old lady closed her eyes: "Because she is the general's lover..."
