Rudonghai

Chapter 111 Scared (Part [-])
It doesn't sound good to spread the word, so she also thought about giving some pointers, so it would be better for the eldest lady to take over slowly.

Who knew that the eldest lady was so impatient that she secretly encouraged An Guohou to seize the power of the family.

Madam Hou gritted her teeth secretly, but on the surface she still generously gave away the power of the family.The key to the warehouse was also handed over to the eldest lady in front of Lord Hou, but whether the daughter-in-law is able to hold down the lady in charge below is none of her business.

Looking at it now, not only did she not be able to suppress it, the eldest lady might not even have the ability to give orders, which is really embarrassing.

It is estimated that the eldest lady will not be able to hold on for a few days, and she will not wait until the Hou's mansion is in chaos before she invites herself to go back.

"Pack up your things, it's almost time for us to go back."

After hearing Mrs. Hou's words, Ji Jiaqian pursed her lips a little unwillingly and said, "Mother, is it so cheap, sister-in-law?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? That's your sister-in-law. Sooner or later, she will be in charge of the family. It's not good to embarrass her too much. How can she gain power in the mansion in the future? Besides, the Hou's mansion is in chaos, and Lord Hou will not be the first to spare me. If you continue to watch the fire from the other side , this fire burns on the body, but it is not so comfortable."

Ji Jiaqian naturally understands these words, but she is quite happy to make the lady suffer for a few more days.

"Original sister-in-law's fault, if mother-in-law goes directly to the Marquis Mansion, won't she have to ride on mother-in-law's head in the future to do her best? According to my daughter, she will only be sincere when sister-in-law picks up mother back in person. "

Ji Jiaqian's words touched Madam Hou's heart. She couldn't compromise easily after being humiliated by her daughter-in-law.

Gu Yunxiao heard that Mrs. Hou was in poor health, so she took Liu Xu to visit, but was stopped by Hong Luan at the door.

"Miss San, the old lady has already fallen asleep after taking the medicine, so she can't see guests for the time being."

"So that's the case, then I won't disturb the old lady's rest." Gu Yunxiao was surprised, seeing that Mrs. Hou's face was rosy yesterday, she didn't look sick at all, why did she suddenly fall ill?

She was about to walk back, when she saw Ji Qingrou was supporting her combed bun with one hand, and a shiny gold bracelet on it was swaying in the wind.

She was dressed in a pink dress with a tulle covering her head, and her figure swayed as she walked, as graceful as a fairy.

Not to mention Gu Yunxiao, even Hong Luan couldn't help frowning slightly.

This Mrs. Hou is ill. As a granddaughter, Ji Qingrou, will she dress up a little too ostentatiously?
Sensing the gazes of the two, Ji Qingrou turned her head, the smile on her lips hadn't completely receded: "So it's the third sister, is she here to visit grandma?"

"Yes, where is sister Rou going?" Gu Yunxiao wondered, where would Ji Qingrou go if she didn't accompany Mrs. Hou's bedside bed?
Ji Qingrou twitched the corners of her mouth in embarrassment: "I didn't go anywhere, but I just plan to take a walk in the backyard."

Her eyes were a little dodgy, she exchanged some pleasantries, and hurried to leave: "I'll take a step first, and I have to come back to accompany my grandmother later."

Gu Yunxiao raised his eyebrows, seeing Ji Qingrou running away as if she couldn't help but feel amused.

This is bored sleeping in front of Mrs. Hou, so I want to play in the backyard?
But in her impression, the backyard was just full of flowers, and it was amazing just looking at it, and it was the same after seeing it a lot. How could Ji Qingrou be so caring?

Compared to the backyard of the Marquis of Anguo, this small hot spring village is simply not worth seeing.

Gu Yunxiao winked at Liu Xu, bid farewell to Hongluan and went back to the yard.She is injured now and hasn't recovered yet, how can she run around like Ji Qingrou?
It's just that she was also curious. After leaving the main courtyard, Gu Yunxiao walked towards the backyard as soon as she lifted her footsteps without seeing other women and maids.

The backyard was quiet, without seeing Ji Qingrou, Gu Yunxiao knew she was really lying.

Gu Yunxiao was deeply bored, and was about to leave when he heard a soft voice, which seemed somewhat familiar.

Now that she's here, it's better to leave with nothing. She quietly hid behind the rockery and got a little closer.

"...Ran Lang, only if mother agrees, can you convince Lord Hou. It's just that you have a certain degree of confidence. If this matter fails, Lord Hou will despise you."

Gu Yunxiao was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't expect it to be Ji Jiaqian.

Could it be that the Ran Lang she was talking about was Ji Keran?
"Sister-in-law, don't worry, everything is up to me." It really was Ji Keran's voice, as affectionate and gentle as ever.

But this person is neither Gu Yunyan nor Gu Yunxiao, but Ji Jiaqian, which is intriguing.

Gu Yunxiao squinted his eyes, not daring to poke his head out to look. Ji Keran has some skills and is particularly sensitive to people's breath and sight.

She covered her mouth and nose with her hand to prevent herself from screaming.

The pair of aunts and nephews were hiding in the corner of the backyard to discuss things, which was really weird no matter how you looked at it.Forget it, who has ever seen a nephew speak to a sister-in-law in such a gentle tone, like a lover?
"With Ran Lang's words, how can I not worry about it." Ji Jiaqian said coquettishly, "It's just that Ran Lang really likes the third girl? I thought you would pick the second girl who is beautiful and beautiful, although I don't want to admit it , but Er Yatou's color is indeed unique in Beijing."

"Sister-in-law, where is there a woman in Beijing who can compare to you?" Ji Keran opened his mouth, and Gu Yunxiao's whole body was covered with goosebumps. It seems that this man's lingering love words to Ji Jiaqian are not the first words This time, I'm really skilled.

"Ran Lang is really good at talking, three girls will be blessed in the future." Ji Jiaqian sighed softly, both regretful and strong jealousy.

If it wasn't for her identity, where would Gu Yunxiao, a yellow-haired girl, stand next to Ji Keran?
Ji Keran smiled and said, "Why do you smell a strong smell of vinegar? Sister-in-law, did you smell it?"

Ji Jiaqian was teased by him, and finally couldn't help laughing: "Huh? How dare you even tease me?"

"My nephew doesn't dare, but sister-in-law don't worry, my heart for you will never change."

"Well, I believe you." Ji Jiaqian murmured softly, with sweetness and infinite expectations in her tone.

Gu Yunxiao frowned, and within a few words, they decided where they were going.She used to think that Ji Keran was like wearing a mask, and she was hypocritical, which made people unhappy.

Only now did I realize that this man would not even let his sister-in-law off, he was even worse than a beast.

From Ji Jiaqian's words, it seems that the two of them have been hooking up for a long time.

Perhaps Ji Jiaqian was in the middle of the game and immersed in the gentle and tender love words of her lover, so she didn't hear anything wrong at all.

Gu Yunxiao hid aside, did not see Ji Keran's expression, but could hear the man's tone from beginning to end without any change.It sounds gentle, but it lacks a little sincerity.

Obviously, Ji Jiaqian's love has been deeply rooted for a long time, but how much Ji Keran has true affection for her is debatable.

She didn't expect that if she walked around the backyard just out of curiosity, she would discover the Ji family's secret that no outsider should know.

Gu Yunxiao couldn't help but wonder, could it be that what Ji Jiaqian said about falling in love with Master Gu at first sight was all false, and where is the hostility of the eldest lady towards Ji Jiaqian?
If she was the eldest lady, she might have the heart to kill Ji Jiaqian.

The Eldest Master died of illness, and the Eldest Madam only had a son like Ji Keran as her support, and he was also the eldest grandson of the Hou Mansion, so he was likely to inherit the Hou Mansion in the future.

Now that she is entangled with Ji Jiaqian, if she leaks a little bit, Ji Keran's future in this life will be ruined.

But perhaps it was Da Furen's deliberate obstruction that made the two of them more firmly together.Maybe it was just a vague affection at the beginning, but after being blocked, it is to prove that they really love each other, so they are never willing to separate again?

So did Mr. Gu know about this, or did he cover it up for Ji Jiaqian after he found out?

And Ji Jiaqian will get married in a hurry, is there also a big lady who is behind the scenes?

The only thing Gu Yunxiao was sure of was that An Guohou must not have known about it.Otherwise, how could Ji Jiaqian get married safely and get so many dowries from the Hou Mansion?

An Guohou's love for Ji Jiaqian is not fake, neither Ji Jiaqian nor the eldest lady would be willing to reveal this matter.

If Lord Hou finds out, Ji Keran's life will be ruined, which is not what the two women want to see.

The two outside lingered for a while, and then Ji Jiaqian reluctantly left.

Gu Yunxiao heard that there was no sound outside, but still didn't dare to move.She was tense all over, always feeling that she had a bad premonition.

Ji Keran was indeed a cautious person. He called his confidant and ordered in a low voice: "Look around in the backyard to see if there is anyone. If there is any, kill them. Remember to clean it up. After all, it belongs to the Hou Mansion." place, it’s not good to scare grandma.”

He lost his usual gentle tone, as if he had removed all the masks.This is the real grandson of Ji's parents, ruthless.

"Yes, son."

Gu Yunxiao identified it carefully, and there was more than one voice answering.The backyard is only a tiny bit big, so if she digs three feet to search, her position is not considered secret, and she will be discovered easily.

At that time, her situation will not be much better.

Gu Yunxiao couldn't help being anxious, if he ran out at this time, how could he run better than those servants who are skilled?

But if you don't leave, you're just sitting still.

Hearing the sound of footsteps approaching, she was so anxious that her back was drenched in cold sweat in an instant.

How to do?
Gu Yunxiao looked around for a week, carefully sizing up the rockery, wondering where people could hide.

It's a pity that the rockery is only hollowed out inside. If you probe in, it's really clear at a glance.

Reaching out and touching the ground, there was nothing but gravel and green grass.

If there is a hole in the ground, so that I can drill in and hide, how good would it be?

Bei Teeth bit her lower lip, almost bleeding from it.Gu Yunxiao was very anxious, hoping that someone would come to the backyard quickly so that he could avoid disaster!
"My lord, I've checked everywhere. There's no way to hide a man in this rockery." The attendant didn't think there was a need to search the rockery, so he told the truth.

Ji Keran sneered and said, "If you can't hide a man with a strong eye, can't you hide a little girl? If everyone was as careless and casual as you, I would have died long ago."

The attendant knelt down in fear, and made a plop so hard that Gu Yunxiao felt pain: "My lord, please forgive me."

"Go down and receive the punishment. I don't need useless people. Starting tomorrow, you don't have to follow me." Ji Keran dismissed the attendant in a few words, as if what was lost was not a person, but a pendant.

Hearing the sound of approaching footsteps, Gu Yunxiao took a tight breath and turned pale.

She grabbed a handful of sand, thinking about throwing it over when someone poked her head in, would she be able to delay a little bit of time so that she could run out?

Before Gu Yunxiao could settle down, he heard a brisk voice: "Teacher Xiao, this way please."

She had never felt that Ji Qingrou's voice was like the sound of nature, so she couldn't help but secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

"Why is my cousin here? What did the attendants look for?" Ji Qingrou asked curiously when she saw Ji Keran.

"I've seen Mr. Taifu, but I'm really rude for not going to greet you at the gate of the residence." Ji Keran stretched out his hand and bowed, his tone full of apology.

"Cousin, Master Taifu heard that my grandmother was ill, so I came to visit. I didn't expect my grandmother to fall asleep after taking medicine, so it's not good to ask my lord to come here for nothing, so I decided to ask my lord to take a walk in the backyard." Ji Qingrou couldn't hide her shyness, but she was a little bit disappointed.

"When the concierge saw the Tai Tuo visiting, he originally went to invite his cousin, but he was not in the yard, so he came to inform me. I thought my cousin had gone out, why did he come to the backyard to find something?"
