Jie a husband is too arrogant
Chapter 102
Chapter 102
It was thought that Zhao Wenshuan would not be executed until after the autumn, but two days later, Zhao Wenshuan was taken to the execution ground for execution.
Zhao Wenshuan was convicted of murder, and he will die sooner or later. There is only a widowed mother and younger sister in the family, so no one can speak for him.
Zhao Liu'er looked for the second wife several times, but did not see the second wife, but instead made the second wife feel murderous towards her.
Now that her brother has been beheaded, she no longer comes to Ji's mansion to look for the second wife, and only stays with her mother who cried to death several times.
Chang Huan told Su Jiu that Zhao Wenshuan's eagerness to be executed should be the result of Zhu Hecheng buying Lin Fuyin, because Zhao Wenshuan's head was taken by Zhu Hecheng and made Zhu Zhi's head sacrifice.
Su Jiu nodded, Zhu Hecheng only had this son, and he lost his son in middle age, so one can imagine the hatred towards Zhao Wenshuan.
And even if Zhao Wenshuan died, he might not be able to quell his hatred, as can be seen from the sacrifice of his son's head!
If it is true what Ji Yuxian said, he will transfer this matter to Ji's mansion, who knows how he will retaliate wildly in the future?
Chang Huan said again, "There are people wandering around Zhao Liu'er's house these two days, and the person who came was not kind!"
"Take care of Zhao Liuer, don't let her have trouble!" The second wife must get rid of Zhao Liuer, the thorn in her side.
"The Zhao family's mother and daughter are sad because of Zhao Wenshuan's death, and they rarely go out, so it is not easy to attack her. I will send someone to look after her!"
Su Jiu nodded, turned her eyes,
I thought a little more.
The nanny took care of her in the mansion for two days, and Jin Mi's injury gradually improved, and the wound scabbed and stopped getting worse.
At the end of July, the weather is getting colder, a wind blows at night, and yellow flowers are everywhere in the morning.
Just after breakfast in the morning, Steward Song of the mansion entered Jinglan Garden, handed a letter to Yuan'er, flatteringly said, "It was sent by someone from the Zhu Mansion, let it be given to the Second Madam!"
"Thank you, Manager Song!"
Yuan'er smiled sweetly, accepted the letter, took another ingot of silver to reward Song Guanshi, and then returned to the Nuan Pavilion to hand the letter to the second lady.
When the second lady heard that it was a message from Zhu's residence, she hurriedly opened it and saw that there was only one word "quick" on it.
The white paper all night, with only one black word in the middle, is more eye-catching.
The second wife knew that Zhu Hecheng couldn't wait any longer, so she sent a letter urging her to get rid of Ji Yuxian as soon as possible. She was also anxious, but she always had to find a good opportunity to get twice the result with half the effort.
Clutching the letter paper in her hand, the second lady's eyes were filled with vicious coldness.
Yuan'er stepped forward and said, "Yesterday, Mrs. Jin sent a pack of astragalus, saying that she dried it herself in the other garden, and made soup for the second lady to nourish her body!"
The second lady rolled her eyes and said with a smile, "I haven't been to the main courtyard since the nanny came. I don't know how that girl Jin Mi is doing. Get some supplements later and follow me to the main courtyard!"
Yuan'er blessedly responded, "Yes!"
Seeing the sun rising, the second lady and Yuan'er went to the main courtyard together.
Yu Lao listened to his servants and greeted him, and said respectfully, "See Second Madam!"
The second lady smiled gently, "I'm here to see Jin Mi and Nanny, Yu Xian is busy, so there's no need to tell him!"
"Yes, the old slave brought the second lady there!"
Yu Lao led the second wife to Jin Mi's room, stopped a few feet away, and bowed back.
Yuan'er knocked on the door, and the nanny came over, seeing that it was the second lady, she hurriedly said, "This old servant has seen the second lady!"
The second lady smiled and nodded, "I haven't come here yet when the nanny came into the mansion, so I just came to see Jin Mi today, okay?"
The nanny bowed her head and followed behind the second lady, "Second lady Lao is thinking about it, it's almost healed!"
Hearing the sound, Jin Mi also sat up on the bed, "Your maidservant sees the second lady!"
"Sit down, don't be too polite!" The second lady smiled and looked at the nanny standing opposite, "It's almost the end of the day!"
The nurse was startled, and immediately lowered her head, "Yes!"
Jin Mi hurriedly said, "The servant girl has been lying down for a while, and the wound no longer hurts, so she can go to work in the fields in two days."
"Hey! It's okay to take care of it for a few more days. A woman should take good care of her body, especially if the injury is still on her leg. What if there is a scar?" The second lady smiled kindly, stroking Jin Mi's hand, smiling Yingying looked at the nanny, "You have to come in person! You see, once you come, this girl's legs will be healed!"
The nanny chuckled, "Mi Er, this girl is just spoiled by the servants, she doesn't look like a servant!"
"Nurse, this is off the mark. I have always treated Jin Mi as my own daughter! Jin Mi has been in this mansion since she was a child, and has served Yu Xian for so many years. Originally, I asked Yu Xian to give Jin Mi a title." Madam paused.
Jin Mi lowered her head, her face was flushed, "Second Madam has beaten the servant girl, the servant girl's status is low, how can she be worthy of being the eldest son!"
There was a hint of sadness in the voice.
The nanny stood aside, poured tea with her head down, and kept silent.
"I originally planned this way, but after the young lady entered the mansion, she was the only one in the young master's eyes, and all the other women couldn't bear it anymore. Looking at the fate of Xie Ying and Ren Zhi'er, I didn't dare to move my mind even more. , I'm afraid that Jin Mi will also." The second lady smiled coyly and stopped talking.
Jin Mi lowered her head, bit her lower lip tightly, her face pale.
Nanny Jin brought over the tea and said with a smile, "We, Jin Mi, don't have this blessing."
"Although it is not a blessing, it is not a blessing!" The second lady took a sip of tea, "Yu Xian only loves the young lady, and if other women marry in, it will be even worse if they are like Xie Ying and Ren Zhi'er. !"
Jin Mi's voice was full of crying, "Please stop talking, Second Madam!"
The second lady sighed heavily, "Hey, you are just a fool, you may not know anything about love, but you have been with Yu Xian for a long time, and you think you can't leave! When your leg injury recovers, I will be a matchmaker and find you Wouldn't it be better for a young talent with a good family background to be his wife in the past and enjoy life without looking at others!"
Jin Mi's face became paler, she just bit her lips and said nothing.
The nanny hurriedly said, "Yes, the second lady has to worry about it, and Jin Mi's marriage is entrusted to the second lady!"
"It's easy to say, they are all my own children, and they should be!"
The second lady sipped tea and chatted with the nanny for a while, seeing that it was almost noon, she got up and left.
After the second lady left, Jin Mi immediately frowned and said, "Mother, what did you say just now, what did you do to make her say kiss?"
The nanny sat by the bed and comforted her, "Second Madam is right, you are not young, it is indeed time to find a marriage, how can you delay it?"
"My brother hasn't married yet, why should I be in a hurry? I have to wait until my brother marries his sister-in-law." Jin Mi said unhappily.
"Your elder brother is by the eldest son's side, and he doesn't have to worry about marrying a wife. If it's you, being too stubborn is not a good thing!"
Jin Mi turned her head away, "I don't want to marry, I will stay in Ji's residence for the rest of my life!"
"Didn't you understand what the second lady said? The eldest son will not treat other women kindly when he has a young lady. Why are you so stupid? My mother came to Ji's mansion twice, and she can see clearly that the eldest son loves the young lady very much. You Don't think about it any more!"
Tears rolled in Jin Mi's eyes, and she said in a choked voice, "Mother, I really love you son, and I don't want to leave for a moment, even if I am a slave, I will serve him for the rest of my life!"
"What kind of obsession have you fallen into?" The nanny sighed, "I shouldn't have left you in the Ji Mansion back then."
"Mother, are you willing to let me follow you, too? Although you didn't say it, I can sense your thoughts. Why don't you support your daughter now?" Jin Mi's tears rolled down her face, her face full of sadness.
"I," the nanny looked away slightly, and said in a deep voice, "Mother used to see you infatuated, and only hoped that you would be happy, but now that the eldest son has a beloved person, he can't tolerate you at all!"
"No, these years, the young master has also liked Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Ren, but in the end, it's not always a matter of pampering her for a while. Although Su Yuejiu is favored now, after the young master's freshness wears off, maybe she won't like her anymore." Jin Mi tried to convince her mother, and she was also convincing herself.
The nanny shook her head, "It's different this time, the young lady and those concubines are also different. The eldest son doted on those concubines before, but which one entered the main courtyard, and which one was protected by the eldest son. Mi Son, don't think about it, just give up."
Jin Mi just kept crying and sobbing, she was always by Ji Yuxian's side, followed by the best man in the world, giving up was not easy, with someone like Ji Yuxian in her heart, how could others notice her?
If she were to marry those vulgar people, she would rather not marry for the rest of her life!
Seeing Jin Mi's sad look, the nanny gradually dimmed her kind eyes and frowned.
In the evening, Ji Yuxian returned home outside.
Su Jiu has gone out, and has not come back yet, Ji Yuxian is sitting in the study room waiting for Su Jiu to go back home to have dinner together, looking at the quiet study room under the twilight, he feels empty, wishing to go out immediately to find his wife back, and hold back, He took the book and opened it in his hand.
He said he would give her freedom, and tried his best not to disturb her.
After turning two pages of the book, he became more and more irritable. He was about to call Jin Feng to come in to deliver tea, but there was a knock on the door, but it was the nanny who came in with ginseng soup.
"Young master just came back, and the old slave just stewed ginseng soup, drink a bowl while it's hot!" The nanny put the ginseng soup on the table, filled a bowl and handed it over.
Ji Yuxian laughed and said, "I've said it all, the nanny doesn't have to do everything herself, just let the servants do it. It's going to be cold, so pay more attention to your health!"
The nanny smiled, and lowered her head, "It's an old bone, and it's useless for the young master to worry about it all the time!"
Ji Yuxian pursed his thin lips lightly, took the ginseng soup and drank it slowly.
The nanny thought of something, frowned, looked outside the window and said in a low voice, "The old slave is counting the days, the young master seems to have another seizure these few days, but the pain is still so severe?"
She has taken care of Ji Yuxian since she was a child, so she is naturally the most aware of Ji Yuxian's poisoning.
Ji Yuxian's brows were mild, "It's much better already!"
The nanny looked distressed, and said distressedly, "When will this size be?"
"It's okay, I'm used to it!" Ji Yuxian said calmly.
"This month is the middle of the year, the pain must be even more unbearable when it occurs, the young master should sleep with the young lady in a separate room today, so as not to hurt the young lady!" the nanny said sympathetically.
Ji Yuxian's eyes darkened slightly. Ever since Su Jiu knew that he had been poisoned, every month when she had an attack, she used her internal strength to help him bear it. Seeing her pale face in the morning, how could he not feel distressed?
With a slight nod, Ji Yuxian said lightly, "Yes, I know!"
"There will always be a day when the antidote is found, young master, don't give up!" the nanny reassured.
"Yes!" Ji Yuxian lowered his eyes and smiled lightly.
As the sky darkened, footsteps could be heard outside, and when Jin Feng called "Young Madam", Ji Yuxian's eyebrows softened unconsciously.
The nanny looked at the gentle smile in Ji Yuxian's eyes, got up and said, "The young lady is back, so I won't bother you, I will leave first!"
"Nurse go slowly!"
The nanny walked to the door and happened to bump into Su Jiu, and hurriedly greeted her, "The old slave has seen the young lady!"
Nanny Jin has been in the mansion for a few days, but she only serves Jin Mi in the side courtyard every day. Su Jiu is not common, knowing that she is kind to Ji Yuxian, like a relative, so her attitude is more respectful, "Nurse don't need to be polite. !"
"Young madam, go in, the young master is waiting for young madam!" The nanny said gently.
Su Jiu glanced at the study room, lowered her eyebrows and smiled slightly.
After waiting for the nanny to leave the study, Su Jiu went in.
Ji Yuxian was sitting on a low couch, with a red robe and black hair, a handsome face, and the last ray of sunlight falling outside the window reflected on his face, as bright as the moon.
His long eyes were also shining, and he stretched out his hand to Su Jiu, "Come to my husband!"
Su Jiu went over, and was immediately picked up by his waist and placed on his lap, kissed her red lips, and said in a drowning voice, "Where did you go?"
"Stayed in the firm for half a day." Su Jiu answered casually and asked, "Is there something wrong with the nanny?"
Ji Yuxian shook his head and pressed it against her forehead, there seemed to be some deep and heavy eyes in his half-closed eyes, he shook his head slowly, "It's okay!"
Su Jiu felt that something was wrong with the man, so she held his face with both hands and asked, "What's wrong?"
Ji Yuxian curled his lips into a slow smile, and his smile returned to his usual slackness, and he said in a low voice, "I miss my wife!"
Su Jiu's eyes were bright, and she chuckled, "It's only half a day."
"If I can't see you for a moment, I will start thinking about you!" Ji Yuxian hugged the girl's waist, kissed her eyebrows and corners of her eyes, and pecked her lips with gentle movements.
Su Jiu was itchy from his kiss, she supported his shoulders and backed away, "Don't make trouble!"
"Huh?" Ji Yuxian's voice was sexy and deep.
Su Jiu leaned on his shoulder and asked, "It's been almost ten days since Qiao An and Da Pao's letter arrived, why haven't they arrived in Shengjing yet?"
"It rained heavily a few days ago, maybe the road was delayed!" Ji Yuxian comforted.
Su Jiu nodded, maybe it is!
Qiao An and Hu Dapao had been walking for so long, and she felt uneasy if she didn't arrive in Shengjing for a day, so nothing happened on the way.
"Are you hungry? Let's go eat!" Ji Yuxian got up and walked out with Su Jiu in his arms.
"Let me go!" Su Jiu struggled to get off the ground, Jin Feng was just outside the door, what was she seeing.
Ji Yuxian hugged it tightly, and said with a smile, "Jin Feng is used to it, Madam can rest assured."
Su Jiu was speechless.
After dinner, the two went back to the study, read and chatted.
There seemed to be a wind blowing outside, but in less than half a moment, the wind was strong, the clouds were dense, the sky was as dark as thick ink, and the mountains and rain were about to come.
The wind came in with fallen leaves, blowing the books on the desk rustling, Su Jiu got up and closed the window, saying, "It's going to rain."
Ji Yuxian came over, put Su Jiu's clothes back together, and said softly, "Madam, let's go back to rest earlier, and don't get caught in the rain later."
"What about you?" Su Jiu yawned and asked casually, "When will you go back to sleep?"
Ji Yuxian's eyes flashed, and he was immediately full of spring, and said with a low smile, "It's a beautiful day tonight, should we sleep in the bridal chamber?"
Su Jiu sneered, glanced at the lightning and thunder outside the window, and said, "Is it a beautiful day tonight?"
Ji Yuxian sighed quietly, "When will Madam agree? Doctor Gu said that men always endure and will get sick!"
"Do you believe what he said? This is obviously an excuse for his lust when he was young. You must not learn from him!" Su Jiu said seriously.
Ji Yuxian, "..."
Su Jiu touched the man's delicate face, "Young man, don't always think about sleeping with women, do more serious things!"
Ji Yuxian was very aggrieved, "It's a serious matter to leave a future for the Ji family! The ancients said that food and sex are also! We need to listen to the teachings of the ancients!"
Su Jiu frowned, "Did you read some messy books again?"
Ji Yuxian immediately denied it, "Not for my husband!"
"Good boy!" Su Jiu narrowed her eyes and smiled, "Drink more tea to defeat the fire!"
Ji Yuxian, "..."
His wife seems to have been misled by him now.
Ji Yuxian hugged Su Jiu, suppressed the charming thoughts in his chest, and said, "Madam, go back to sleep. I have account books today and I need to read them overnight. If it's late, I'll sleep in the study."
Su Jiu frowned, "Are you in such a hurry?"
"Reluctant to be your husband?" Ji Yuxian's voice was a little more light.
Su Jiu said, "If you're not in a hurry, I'll watch it tomorrow, and pay attention to your body!"
Ji Yuxian nodded, "Okay!"
After Su Jiu left, the lights in the study seemed to have dimmed a bit. Ji Yuxian stood there with deep eyes, hearing the sound of thunder outside. Let it out with the wind.
But for a moment, bean big raindrops hit the eaves, and the rain fell with a rush.
Between heaven and earth, there is only the sound of rain howling.
However, the wind gradually became smaller.
Ji Yuxian stretched out his arms and pushed open the window, the sound of rain immediately entered his ears, and a gust of cool wind
Comes with damp pavement.
In the night, the rain was as heavy as a curtain, falling from the sky, and the plantain under the porch was beaten so hard that it couldn't lift its head up. It swayed with the wind, but refused to be broken. When it found a gap, it immediately raised its head.
Under the corridor, Jin Feng's tall and straight body stood there straight, the corner of his robe was soaked by the rain, motionless, like a sculpture, guarding the door behind him.
Jin Feng has been with him since he was a child, and has experienced life and death together as a friend and servant. He has helped him block so many swords and arrows, and he is loyal.
Ji Yuxian stood there for a long time, his handsome face was less seductive than usual, and a bit darker, against the dim candlelight, it looked unfathomable.
After a while, Ji Yuxian's long eyes glanced at Jin Feng's figure, he closed the window, returned to the desk and continued to look through the account books.
At Haishi, the rain gradually subsided, falling from the eaves in a patter, meandering through the washed-out late night.
Candles flicker, faintly unknown.
There was a low voice from outside the study, and then the nanny knocked on the door and came in, holding red date and lotus seed soup in her hand, and said gently, "It's late at night, why are you still awake, sir?"
Ji Yuxian got up, "Why isn't the nurse still asleep?"
"The old servant just served Mi'er to sleep, and saw that the light in the study was still on, so he brought warm soup to warm the young master and Jin Feng!" The nanny looked outside the door with worried eyes.
The wind was cold after the rain, Jin Feng stood outside the door, he must have suffered from the cold.
A mother loves her son dearly, and it’s fine if she can’t see it, but she can’t sleep peacefully if she sees it.
Ji Yuxian nodded lightly, called Jin Feng in, and drank soup together.
"Drink a bowl of soup and warm yourself up, Jin Feng should go back and rest!" Ji Yuxian said.
The nanny was serving the soup, and she hurriedly said, "Master, I misunderstood what the old slave meant. It is Feng'er's duty to guard the master. If the master does not sleep, how can he go to rest first?"
"It's okay, after drinking the soup, I'm going to sleep too!" Ji Yuxian smiled faintly.
The nanny filled the soup and handed it to Ji Yuxian first, and then to Jin Feng. Looking at the two of them, she smiled lovingly, "I used to make soup for you when you were young. grown up!"
Jin Feng laughed softly, "No matter how many years, it is Jin Feng's luck to still be by Young Master's side!"
Ji Yuxian drank half a bowl of soup and raised his lips slightly.
"Yes, if you can accompany the young master, even if one day I'm gone, you can go away with peace of mind!" said the nanny.
"Mother, it's so nice, why are you saying this in front of the young master?" Jin Feng frowned.
"Nurse will live a long life!" Ji Yuxian said gently.
"Yes, I'm confused, talking nonsense, drink up, and go to bed early after drinking. Maybe it will rain soon!" the nanny said hurriedly.
After finishing the soup, the nanny put it away, left with Jin Feng, and left the study.
Ji Yuxian sat behind the desk and did not put away the account books until the candles dimmed, and got up to go to sleep.
Behind the study is a screen with flowers blooming all the year round, and behind it is a bed with brocade quilts and soft pillows.
Ji Yuxian took off his clothes and lay down on the bed, with one person missing beside him, feeling more and more empty, even his arms seemed to have no place to rest.
Sure enough, it began to rain again, from slow to rapid, and then from rapid to slow, without stopping.
I don't know if Su Jiu fell asleep, or she couldn't fall asleep because of the noise of the rain, Ji Yuxian pursed her thin lips with a gentle smile, and slowly closed her eyes.
After the third watch, the rain stopped. The night was as dark as ink, and all the sounds in the world seemed to be washed away by this heavy rain.
The candles in the study had been extinguished, and the room was dark and quiet. Suddenly, the door creaked slightly, and a figure walked in slowly.
After closing the door behind his back, the visitor got used to the darkness of the room and walked slowly inside.
Turning around the screen and looking at the bed, Ben Cihe's face was expressionless at this moment, and it looked more eerie and strange in the darkness.
Raindrops dripped from the eaves and hit the banana leaves under the window. The slight sound, like human sighs, made the night quiet.
The person who came in stood there for a long while before walking towards the bed again.
Sitting on the edge of the bed, she sighed lightly, her voice hoarse, "Hey, this old slave is also helpless, I hope you will understand me!"
After finishing speaking, he raised his hand and sniffed at the person on the bed.
As soon as she stretched out her hand, suddenly there was a slight sound of gears turning behind the bed, and the bookshelves slowly moved to the two sides. Su Jiu came out slowly holding a shark candle gauze lantern, and said with a smile, "Nurse is really loyal, and she returned it in the middle of the night." Come and serve my husband."
The girl was smiling, her face was delicate, but the dim light in her hand reflected her worry like a ghost, the woman sitting on the edge of the bed was startled, she fell down on the bed and pointed at Su Jiu, " you you"
The girl came over, her smile getting colder, "Did the nanny do something wrong? Why are you so terrified?"
"So it's Young Madam!" The nanny said tremblingly, got up slowly, and said with a dry smile, "It's rainy and cold tonight, the young master sleeps in the study alone, the old servant is worried about coming over to have a look."
Said and took a step back, "Since the young lady is here, the old slave will leave!"
Turn around and walk out hastily.
"Nurse!" A deep voice suddenly came from behind, and the woman's footsteps were suddenly nailed there.
Su Jiu laughed softly, "My husband is still alive? What a surprise!"
The nanny shuddered and turned around slowly, seeing that Ji Yuxian had already sat up, lazily leaning against the bed, under the candlelight, a pair of phoenix eyes on her unparalleled handsome face looked at her coldly.
The nanny hurriedly got down, "The old servant disturbed the young master's rest in the middle of the night, he really deserves to die!"
Ji Yuxian's eyes were dim, indifferent and cold, and he said coolly, "Nurse, are you surprised to see that I'm still alive?"
The nanny asked in fear, "What does the young master mean, the old slave doesn't understand?"
"Don't understand?" Ji Yuxian chuckled, "If you don't understand, why put bloodworms in the lotus seed porridge? Bloodworms can trigger the toxicity of half-moon bites, the nanny must understand!"
The nurse trembled all over, plopped down on her knees, bowed her head and remained silent.
"Nurse deliberately let me eat with Jinfeng, and told me to lower my vigilance, but I have been suffering from half-moon bites for more than ten years, how can I not understand that blood worms do no harm to ordinary people at all!"
The nanny shook her head in panic, "Master misunderstood, this old slave doesn't know what blood worms are, if this old slave really drank blood worms in the soup, the master's toxicity has already occurred."
Su Jiu watched the woman's sophistry with cold eyes, and the coldness in her eyes became more and more intense.
Ji Yuxian got up slowly, walked to the table and poured a cup of tea, and said slowly, "Nurse, this bloodworm has been raised for five years! Bloodworms should be kept in a cool place, out of sunlight, and treated with cordyceps, salvia miltiorrhiza, etc. Every month and a half, she still sucks human blood. Five years ago, my nanny suddenly became ill. Doctor Gu told me after taking her pulse, that she was raising bloodworms. I knew then that my nanny was still alive Don't give up and take my life!"
Su Jiu turned her head to look at Ji Yuxian in astonishment, but only saw his back, hidden in the darkness, vague and lonely.
He knew a long time ago, so he knew five years ago, that the nanny, whom he regarded as his relative, was plotting to kill him.
When the nanny heard this, she slumped down on the ground, her face pale.
"Nurse must be wondering why I am still safe after eating the blood worms that you have carefully fed. Actually, there is no need to be too confused. Since I know that you are raising blood worms, why don't I leave a way out for myself and be rationed by Doctor Gu every month?" Your pills are all mixed with detoxification ingredients, so the blood worms raised by the nanny with her own blood have long been unable to induce half-moon bites, they are just ordinary worms!"
The nanny calmed down after a moment of astonishment, and sneered, "Since the young master already knows, why don't you just kill the old slave?"
Ji Yuxian turned around and looked at her coldly, "I know who is behind your backstage. Back then, she made you eat half of my food because she was jealous that I was the eldest son. But the Ji family has no master, She couldn't kill me, so she tried her best to find this kind of poison, and made me suffer pain that ordinary people can't bear."
The nanny looked up at Ji Yuxian, her previous panic was gone, she just sneered, "So you know everything!"
"The last time Jin Mi was sent back to the other garden, I wanted to see Jin Feng's loyalty and the nanny's care for me, so I didn't care about the past, but the nanny was willing to be used by others. Even at the expense of his own daughter, he sent Jin Mi back to the Ji Mansion again, you let her monitor me, and then report to her."
"Yes!" The nanny knelt on the ground with her back straight, "Young Master's guess is right!"
"mother!"
As soon as the woman finished speaking, she heard a scream from behind the screen.
The woman's complexion changed, and she turned her head suddenly.
Jin Mi and Jin Feng stood behind the screen at some point and heard all the conversation inside.
Jin Feng's face was full of shock, as if he couldn't accept such a fact, his face was terribly pale.
In his heart, his mother is a kind woman who treats the eldest son as his own, better than his own son, and even sacrificed her own life to save the eldest son.The eldest son has always been kind to his mother, and specially built a separate garden that is warm in winter and cool in summer for her to take care of her. Behind such deep love and righteousness, why are there so many dirty tricks hidden.
He couldn't accept it at all for a while!
Jin Mi even burst into tears, walked out from the screen, knelt beside the nanny, and cried, "Mother, this is not true, it is not true, how could you harm the young master, you are better to the young master than the elder brother, no of!"
She has served Ji Yuxian for more than ten years, and every time she visits Bieyuan, her mother will ask about Ji Yuxian's affairs clearly. She always thought that her mother cared about the young master, but it turned out to be surveillance!
Why is this happening?
She was being used by her own mother, she liked Ji Yuxian, and she was doing things to hurt him, why did she treat her like this?
Jin Mi cried on the wet nurse, "Mother, why is this happening? Why?"
This time her leg injury was actually premeditated, that day when she saw Ji Yuxian and Su Jiu making out together, she walked out of the courtyard sullenly, and happened to meet the second wife.
The second lady told her that Ji Yuxian still loves her in her heart, and if something happens to her, she will be anxious and distressed.
It just so happened that that night she was knocked down by the young lady's nanny and cut her leg, so she used this to make the leg injury worse in order to attract Ji Yuxian's attention.
Only now did I realize that the Second Madam's original intention was to lure the nanny to Ji's mansion after her accident, so that her mother would personally kill Ji Yuxian.
But she didn't understand why her mother listened to the second wife, why did she go with the second wife?
The nanny looked at her daughter in tears, and said in a choked voice, "If your mother is gone, you and your brother should take care of each other and stop being willful!"
Jin Mi wept bitterly and shook her head, climbed to Ji Yuxian's feet, and begged, "Young master, my mother was confused for a moment, she never wanted to kill you, she wanted to kill you, how could she rush into the fire to save you, how could she do it for you? Blocking the knife? The young master was deceived by others and wronged my mother."
Ji Yuxian looked at her indifferently, his eyes fell on grandma, and said softly, "Nurse may not know that when you rushed into the fire to save me, I didn't completely pass out, I heard it very clearly, you hugged me At that time, you shouted 'Feng'er'. At that time, you thought it was Jin Feng who was burned in the fire, so you rushed in desperately, right? And that time when someone was going to kill me, and you came to block the knife, You were pushed over by someone, and I have never forgotten the look of surprise and fear on your face."
Jin Mi stayed there for a while, with tears still on her face, looking at Ji Yuxian in astonishment.
Suddenly turned to look at the woman, and asked in a trembling voice, "Mother, is what the young master said true?"
The woman closed her eyes, her face was ashen, and she said softly, "Yes, I never thought of saving you!"
Jin Mi's face turned pale all of a sudden, and she fell to the ground dejectedly.
It turned out that everything was fake!
Kindness is fake, love is fake, everything is fake!
"Why did you do this? Mother, why did you do this?" Jin Mi rushed over, grabbed the woman by the collar, and shook it vigorously.
The woman looked crazily sad, as if the world she had lived in for nearly 20 years was collapsing before her eyes in an instant.
When Su Jiu heard this from the side, she felt extremely heavy in her heart, pressed against her chest, and even began to have trouble breathing. She reached out to hold Ji Yuxian's hand, and held it firmly.
At this moment, she finally understood why something was wrong with Ji Yuxian at night?
At that time, he had already guessed that the nanny was going to do something to him, so he must have felt very sad.
His father died young and his mother was seriously ill. The nanny raised him and stayed by his side all the time. He really regarded the nanny as his relative and Jinfeng as his brother, so even if he later found out that the poison on his body was caused by the nanny , and never did anything to this woman!
He had been hoping that the nanny would give up the blood worm, but he was disappointed in the end!
"Mother, why on earth did you do this? Tell me!" Jin Mi was still questioning, unable to believe it.
The woman looked pained, "I am here to avenge your father!"
Ji Yuxian narrowed his eyes slightly, and Jin Mi was even more stunned, "Father? Didn't you say that father died of illness?"
"No, your father was killed by Ji Zhongyi!" The woman gritted her teeth and said bitterly.
"My father?" Ji Yuxian frowned, "Who told you this? She?"
The woman looked up at Ji Yuxian, "My husband was in charge of the business in the Ji Mansion back then, and was in charge of the business in Chongzhou. Later, a villain got in the way, saying that my husband embezzled the owner's money. Ji Zhongyi listened to the slander and secretly killed my husband!"
Jin Mi was stunned, and stared blankly at Ji Yuxian, could it be that there was a hatred between them for killing their father?
Ji Yuxian's eyes were cold, "Is this what Uncle Jin told you?"
The woman paused, "No, when I rushed to Chongzhou to see my husband, he was already dead. I found out later by myself."
"Didn't someone let you see the truth on purpose?" Ji Yuxian sneered, his father was upright and acted upright, there was no way he would do such a thing!
"The truth is the truth, whether someone else let me find out on purpose is also the truth!" The woman has maintained her belief for more than ten years, so she will naturally persist.
Ji Yuxian didn't say any more, knowing that women would not believe him.
He was still young and didn't know about what happened back then. He believed in his father, but evidence can explain everything!
"The matter has come to this point, I have nothing to say, the eldest son wants to kill or cut up at will. It's just that Mi'er and Feng'er are innocent, and they don't know what I did. I hope you will not kill everything!" The decision to die.
Jin Mi just knelt aside and wept.
Ji Yuxian looked at the woman indifferently, and shouted, "Jin Feng!"
Jin Feng had been standing behind the screen, at this time Fang Chen stepped over, knelt on the ground with his knees down, bowed his head, "Master!"
His figure was heavy, as if a thousand catties weighed him down.
Su Jiu looked at him, and suddenly thought, not only Ji Yuxian, but also Jin Feng was hurt in the whole incident. He has always believed in loyal people and things, but after today, they all fell. Fatal blow.
Ji Yuxian said, "Send your mother and Jinmi to the other garden!"
The woman suddenly raised her head, her eyes were red, "What is the meaning of this, eldest son?"
She knew Ji Yuxian's decisive nature, and he knew what he had done, so she thought she would die for sure!
Jin Feng said, "My mother intends to kill the young master. She is old and seriously ill. The son should bear all the responsibilities for her. Whether the young master reports to the government or lynches, Jin Feng has no complaints!"
Ji Yuxian's expression was gloomy, "Jin Feng, you have been loyal to me for more than ten years. That other garden is my gift to you. Take your mother and sister back. From then on, we will have nothing to do with each other, and we will settle our grievances! "
Jin Feng's body trembled, and he lowered his head heavily.
The woman didn't want to, and shouted angrily, "You don't need to be so tolerant with hypocrisy, you Ji family members are all good at buying people's hearts! The other garden belongs to your Ji mansion, it belongs to my enemy, and I live in it." Every day I feel that my life will be shortened by one day, I would rather die than go back!"
Ji Yuxian's face remained unchanged, and he took Su Jiu's hand and walked out, "Wherever you want to go, you can do whatever you want!"
"Ji Yuxian, kill me! I don't want to be favored by you again, Ji Yuxian!" The woman cried out in pain, making a gesture to rush forward.
Stopped by Jin Feng and Jin Mi, crying out in pain,
"mother!"
The woman yelled and fell limply on the ground, "The Ji family is our sworn enemy, our enemy!"
When Su Jiu and Ji Yuxian left the study room, they could still hear the heart-piercing cries of the woman in the room, echoing in the silent rainy night, it sounded like a creepy despair and pain.
(End of this chapter)
It was thought that Zhao Wenshuan would not be executed until after the autumn, but two days later, Zhao Wenshuan was taken to the execution ground for execution.
Zhao Wenshuan was convicted of murder, and he will die sooner or later. There is only a widowed mother and younger sister in the family, so no one can speak for him.
Zhao Liu'er looked for the second wife several times, but did not see the second wife, but instead made the second wife feel murderous towards her.
Now that her brother has been beheaded, she no longer comes to Ji's mansion to look for the second wife, and only stays with her mother who cried to death several times.
Chang Huan told Su Jiu that Zhao Wenshuan's eagerness to be executed should be the result of Zhu Hecheng buying Lin Fuyin, because Zhao Wenshuan's head was taken by Zhu Hecheng and made Zhu Zhi's head sacrifice.
Su Jiu nodded, Zhu Hecheng only had this son, and he lost his son in middle age, so one can imagine the hatred towards Zhao Wenshuan.
And even if Zhao Wenshuan died, he might not be able to quell his hatred, as can be seen from the sacrifice of his son's head!
If it is true what Ji Yuxian said, he will transfer this matter to Ji's mansion, who knows how he will retaliate wildly in the future?
Chang Huan said again, "There are people wandering around Zhao Liu'er's house these two days, and the person who came was not kind!"
"Take care of Zhao Liuer, don't let her have trouble!" The second wife must get rid of Zhao Liuer, the thorn in her side.
"The Zhao family's mother and daughter are sad because of Zhao Wenshuan's death, and they rarely go out, so it is not easy to attack her. I will send someone to look after her!"
Su Jiu nodded, turned her eyes,
I thought a little more.
The nanny took care of her in the mansion for two days, and Jin Mi's injury gradually improved, and the wound scabbed and stopped getting worse.
At the end of July, the weather is getting colder, a wind blows at night, and yellow flowers are everywhere in the morning.
Just after breakfast in the morning, Steward Song of the mansion entered Jinglan Garden, handed a letter to Yuan'er, flatteringly said, "It was sent by someone from the Zhu Mansion, let it be given to the Second Madam!"
"Thank you, Manager Song!"
Yuan'er smiled sweetly, accepted the letter, took another ingot of silver to reward Song Guanshi, and then returned to the Nuan Pavilion to hand the letter to the second lady.
When the second lady heard that it was a message from Zhu's residence, she hurriedly opened it and saw that there was only one word "quick" on it.
The white paper all night, with only one black word in the middle, is more eye-catching.
The second wife knew that Zhu Hecheng couldn't wait any longer, so she sent a letter urging her to get rid of Ji Yuxian as soon as possible. She was also anxious, but she always had to find a good opportunity to get twice the result with half the effort.
Clutching the letter paper in her hand, the second lady's eyes were filled with vicious coldness.
Yuan'er stepped forward and said, "Yesterday, Mrs. Jin sent a pack of astragalus, saying that she dried it herself in the other garden, and made soup for the second lady to nourish her body!"
The second lady rolled her eyes and said with a smile, "I haven't been to the main courtyard since the nanny came. I don't know how that girl Jin Mi is doing. Get some supplements later and follow me to the main courtyard!"
Yuan'er blessedly responded, "Yes!"
Seeing the sun rising, the second lady and Yuan'er went to the main courtyard together.
Yu Lao listened to his servants and greeted him, and said respectfully, "See Second Madam!"
The second lady smiled gently, "I'm here to see Jin Mi and Nanny, Yu Xian is busy, so there's no need to tell him!"
"Yes, the old slave brought the second lady there!"
Yu Lao led the second wife to Jin Mi's room, stopped a few feet away, and bowed back.
Yuan'er knocked on the door, and the nanny came over, seeing that it was the second lady, she hurriedly said, "This old servant has seen the second lady!"
The second lady smiled and nodded, "I haven't come here yet when the nanny came into the mansion, so I just came to see Jin Mi today, okay?"
The nanny bowed her head and followed behind the second lady, "Second lady Lao is thinking about it, it's almost healed!"
Hearing the sound, Jin Mi also sat up on the bed, "Your maidservant sees the second lady!"
"Sit down, don't be too polite!" The second lady smiled and looked at the nanny standing opposite, "It's almost the end of the day!"
The nurse was startled, and immediately lowered her head, "Yes!"
Jin Mi hurriedly said, "The servant girl has been lying down for a while, and the wound no longer hurts, so she can go to work in the fields in two days."
"Hey! It's okay to take care of it for a few more days. A woman should take good care of her body, especially if the injury is still on her leg. What if there is a scar?" The second lady smiled kindly, stroking Jin Mi's hand, smiling Yingying looked at the nanny, "You have to come in person! You see, once you come, this girl's legs will be healed!"
The nanny chuckled, "Mi Er, this girl is just spoiled by the servants, she doesn't look like a servant!"
"Nurse, this is off the mark. I have always treated Jin Mi as my own daughter! Jin Mi has been in this mansion since she was a child, and has served Yu Xian for so many years. Originally, I asked Yu Xian to give Jin Mi a title." Madam paused.
Jin Mi lowered her head, her face was flushed, "Second Madam has beaten the servant girl, the servant girl's status is low, how can she be worthy of being the eldest son!"
There was a hint of sadness in the voice.
The nanny stood aside, poured tea with her head down, and kept silent.
"I originally planned this way, but after the young lady entered the mansion, she was the only one in the young master's eyes, and all the other women couldn't bear it anymore. Looking at the fate of Xie Ying and Ren Zhi'er, I didn't dare to move my mind even more. , I'm afraid that Jin Mi will also." The second lady smiled coyly and stopped talking.
Jin Mi lowered her head, bit her lower lip tightly, her face pale.
Nanny Jin brought over the tea and said with a smile, "We, Jin Mi, don't have this blessing."
"Although it is not a blessing, it is not a blessing!" The second lady took a sip of tea, "Yu Xian only loves the young lady, and if other women marry in, it will be even worse if they are like Xie Ying and Ren Zhi'er. !"
Jin Mi's voice was full of crying, "Please stop talking, Second Madam!"
The second lady sighed heavily, "Hey, you are just a fool, you may not know anything about love, but you have been with Yu Xian for a long time, and you think you can't leave! When your leg injury recovers, I will be a matchmaker and find you Wouldn't it be better for a young talent with a good family background to be his wife in the past and enjoy life without looking at others!"
Jin Mi's face became paler, she just bit her lips and said nothing.
The nanny hurriedly said, "Yes, the second lady has to worry about it, and Jin Mi's marriage is entrusted to the second lady!"
"It's easy to say, they are all my own children, and they should be!"
The second lady sipped tea and chatted with the nanny for a while, seeing that it was almost noon, she got up and left.
After the second lady left, Jin Mi immediately frowned and said, "Mother, what did you say just now, what did you do to make her say kiss?"
The nanny sat by the bed and comforted her, "Second Madam is right, you are not young, it is indeed time to find a marriage, how can you delay it?"
"My brother hasn't married yet, why should I be in a hurry? I have to wait until my brother marries his sister-in-law." Jin Mi said unhappily.
"Your elder brother is by the eldest son's side, and he doesn't have to worry about marrying a wife. If it's you, being too stubborn is not a good thing!"
Jin Mi turned her head away, "I don't want to marry, I will stay in Ji's residence for the rest of my life!"
"Didn't you understand what the second lady said? The eldest son will not treat other women kindly when he has a young lady. Why are you so stupid? My mother came to Ji's mansion twice, and she can see clearly that the eldest son loves the young lady very much. You Don't think about it any more!"
Tears rolled in Jin Mi's eyes, and she said in a choked voice, "Mother, I really love you son, and I don't want to leave for a moment, even if I am a slave, I will serve him for the rest of my life!"
"What kind of obsession have you fallen into?" The nanny sighed, "I shouldn't have left you in the Ji Mansion back then."
"Mother, are you willing to let me follow you, too? Although you didn't say it, I can sense your thoughts. Why don't you support your daughter now?" Jin Mi's tears rolled down her face, her face full of sadness.
"I," the nanny looked away slightly, and said in a deep voice, "Mother used to see you infatuated, and only hoped that you would be happy, but now that the eldest son has a beloved person, he can't tolerate you at all!"
"No, these years, the young master has also liked Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Ren, but in the end, it's not always a matter of pampering her for a while. Although Su Yuejiu is favored now, after the young master's freshness wears off, maybe she won't like her anymore." Jin Mi tried to convince her mother, and she was also convincing herself.
The nanny shook her head, "It's different this time, the young lady and those concubines are also different. The eldest son doted on those concubines before, but which one entered the main courtyard, and which one was protected by the eldest son. Mi Son, don't think about it, just give up."
Jin Mi just kept crying and sobbing, she was always by Ji Yuxian's side, followed by the best man in the world, giving up was not easy, with someone like Ji Yuxian in her heart, how could others notice her?
If she were to marry those vulgar people, she would rather not marry for the rest of her life!
Seeing Jin Mi's sad look, the nanny gradually dimmed her kind eyes and frowned.
In the evening, Ji Yuxian returned home outside.
Su Jiu has gone out, and has not come back yet, Ji Yuxian is sitting in the study room waiting for Su Jiu to go back home to have dinner together, looking at the quiet study room under the twilight, he feels empty, wishing to go out immediately to find his wife back, and hold back, He took the book and opened it in his hand.
He said he would give her freedom, and tried his best not to disturb her.
After turning two pages of the book, he became more and more irritable. He was about to call Jin Feng to come in to deliver tea, but there was a knock on the door, but it was the nanny who came in with ginseng soup.
"Young master just came back, and the old slave just stewed ginseng soup, drink a bowl while it's hot!" The nanny put the ginseng soup on the table, filled a bowl and handed it over.
Ji Yuxian laughed and said, "I've said it all, the nanny doesn't have to do everything herself, just let the servants do it. It's going to be cold, so pay more attention to your health!"
The nanny smiled, and lowered her head, "It's an old bone, and it's useless for the young master to worry about it all the time!"
Ji Yuxian pursed his thin lips lightly, took the ginseng soup and drank it slowly.
The nanny thought of something, frowned, looked outside the window and said in a low voice, "The old slave is counting the days, the young master seems to have another seizure these few days, but the pain is still so severe?"
She has taken care of Ji Yuxian since she was a child, so she is naturally the most aware of Ji Yuxian's poisoning.
Ji Yuxian's brows were mild, "It's much better already!"
The nanny looked distressed, and said distressedly, "When will this size be?"
"It's okay, I'm used to it!" Ji Yuxian said calmly.
"This month is the middle of the year, the pain must be even more unbearable when it occurs, the young master should sleep with the young lady in a separate room today, so as not to hurt the young lady!" the nanny said sympathetically.
Ji Yuxian's eyes darkened slightly. Ever since Su Jiu knew that he had been poisoned, every month when she had an attack, she used her internal strength to help him bear it. Seeing her pale face in the morning, how could he not feel distressed?
With a slight nod, Ji Yuxian said lightly, "Yes, I know!"
"There will always be a day when the antidote is found, young master, don't give up!" the nanny reassured.
"Yes!" Ji Yuxian lowered his eyes and smiled lightly.
As the sky darkened, footsteps could be heard outside, and when Jin Feng called "Young Madam", Ji Yuxian's eyebrows softened unconsciously.
The nanny looked at the gentle smile in Ji Yuxian's eyes, got up and said, "The young lady is back, so I won't bother you, I will leave first!"
"Nurse go slowly!"
The nanny walked to the door and happened to bump into Su Jiu, and hurriedly greeted her, "The old slave has seen the young lady!"
Nanny Jin has been in the mansion for a few days, but she only serves Jin Mi in the side courtyard every day. Su Jiu is not common, knowing that she is kind to Ji Yuxian, like a relative, so her attitude is more respectful, "Nurse don't need to be polite. !"
"Young madam, go in, the young master is waiting for young madam!" The nanny said gently.
Su Jiu glanced at the study room, lowered her eyebrows and smiled slightly.
After waiting for the nanny to leave the study, Su Jiu went in.
Ji Yuxian was sitting on a low couch, with a red robe and black hair, a handsome face, and the last ray of sunlight falling outside the window reflected on his face, as bright as the moon.
His long eyes were also shining, and he stretched out his hand to Su Jiu, "Come to my husband!"
Su Jiu went over, and was immediately picked up by his waist and placed on his lap, kissed her red lips, and said in a drowning voice, "Where did you go?"
"Stayed in the firm for half a day." Su Jiu answered casually and asked, "Is there something wrong with the nanny?"
Ji Yuxian shook his head and pressed it against her forehead, there seemed to be some deep and heavy eyes in his half-closed eyes, he shook his head slowly, "It's okay!"
Su Jiu felt that something was wrong with the man, so she held his face with both hands and asked, "What's wrong?"
Ji Yuxian curled his lips into a slow smile, and his smile returned to his usual slackness, and he said in a low voice, "I miss my wife!"
Su Jiu's eyes were bright, and she chuckled, "It's only half a day."
"If I can't see you for a moment, I will start thinking about you!" Ji Yuxian hugged the girl's waist, kissed her eyebrows and corners of her eyes, and pecked her lips with gentle movements.
Su Jiu was itchy from his kiss, she supported his shoulders and backed away, "Don't make trouble!"
"Huh?" Ji Yuxian's voice was sexy and deep.
Su Jiu leaned on his shoulder and asked, "It's been almost ten days since Qiao An and Da Pao's letter arrived, why haven't they arrived in Shengjing yet?"
"It rained heavily a few days ago, maybe the road was delayed!" Ji Yuxian comforted.
Su Jiu nodded, maybe it is!
Qiao An and Hu Dapao had been walking for so long, and she felt uneasy if she didn't arrive in Shengjing for a day, so nothing happened on the way.
"Are you hungry? Let's go eat!" Ji Yuxian got up and walked out with Su Jiu in his arms.
"Let me go!" Su Jiu struggled to get off the ground, Jin Feng was just outside the door, what was she seeing.
Ji Yuxian hugged it tightly, and said with a smile, "Jin Feng is used to it, Madam can rest assured."
Su Jiu was speechless.
After dinner, the two went back to the study, read and chatted.
There seemed to be a wind blowing outside, but in less than half a moment, the wind was strong, the clouds were dense, the sky was as dark as thick ink, and the mountains and rain were about to come.
The wind came in with fallen leaves, blowing the books on the desk rustling, Su Jiu got up and closed the window, saying, "It's going to rain."
Ji Yuxian came over, put Su Jiu's clothes back together, and said softly, "Madam, let's go back to rest earlier, and don't get caught in the rain later."
"What about you?" Su Jiu yawned and asked casually, "When will you go back to sleep?"
Ji Yuxian's eyes flashed, and he was immediately full of spring, and said with a low smile, "It's a beautiful day tonight, should we sleep in the bridal chamber?"
Su Jiu sneered, glanced at the lightning and thunder outside the window, and said, "Is it a beautiful day tonight?"
Ji Yuxian sighed quietly, "When will Madam agree? Doctor Gu said that men always endure and will get sick!"
"Do you believe what he said? This is obviously an excuse for his lust when he was young. You must not learn from him!" Su Jiu said seriously.
Ji Yuxian, "..."
Su Jiu touched the man's delicate face, "Young man, don't always think about sleeping with women, do more serious things!"
Ji Yuxian was very aggrieved, "It's a serious matter to leave a future for the Ji family! The ancients said that food and sex are also! We need to listen to the teachings of the ancients!"
Su Jiu frowned, "Did you read some messy books again?"
Ji Yuxian immediately denied it, "Not for my husband!"
"Good boy!" Su Jiu narrowed her eyes and smiled, "Drink more tea to defeat the fire!"
Ji Yuxian, "..."
His wife seems to have been misled by him now.
Ji Yuxian hugged Su Jiu, suppressed the charming thoughts in his chest, and said, "Madam, go back to sleep. I have account books today and I need to read them overnight. If it's late, I'll sleep in the study."
Su Jiu frowned, "Are you in such a hurry?"
"Reluctant to be your husband?" Ji Yuxian's voice was a little more light.
Su Jiu said, "If you're not in a hurry, I'll watch it tomorrow, and pay attention to your body!"
Ji Yuxian nodded, "Okay!"
After Su Jiu left, the lights in the study seemed to have dimmed a bit. Ji Yuxian stood there with deep eyes, hearing the sound of thunder outside. Let it out with the wind.
But for a moment, bean big raindrops hit the eaves, and the rain fell with a rush.
Between heaven and earth, there is only the sound of rain howling.
However, the wind gradually became smaller.
Ji Yuxian stretched out his arms and pushed open the window, the sound of rain immediately entered his ears, and a gust of cool wind
Comes with damp pavement.
In the night, the rain was as heavy as a curtain, falling from the sky, and the plantain under the porch was beaten so hard that it couldn't lift its head up. It swayed with the wind, but refused to be broken. When it found a gap, it immediately raised its head.
Under the corridor, Jin Feng's tall and straight body stood there straight, the corner of his robe was soaked by the rain, motionless, like a sculpture, guarding the door behind him.
Jin Feng has been with him since he was a child, and has experienced life and death together as a friend and servant. He has helped him block so many swords and arrows, and he is loyal.
Ji Yuxian stood there for a long time, his handsome face was less seductive than usual, and a bit darker, against the dim candlelight, it looked unfathomable.
After a while, Ji Yuxian's long eyes glanced at Jin Feng's figure, he closed the window, returned to the desk and continued to look through the account books.
At Haishi, the rain gradually subsided, falling from the eaves in a patter, meandering through the washed-out late night.
Candles flicker, faintly unknown.
There was a low voice from outside the study, and then the nanny knocked on the door and came in, holding red date and lotus seed soup in her hand, and said gently, "It's late at night, why are you still awake, sir?"
Ji Yuxian got up, "Why isn't the nurse still asleep?"
"The old servant just served Mi'er to sleep, and saw that the light in the study was still on, so he brought warm soup to warm the young master and Jin Feng!" The nanny looked outside the door with worried eyes.
The wind was cold after the rain, Jin Feng stood outside the door, he must have suffered from the cold.
A mother loves her son dearly, and it’s fine if she can’t see it, but she can’t sleep peacefully if she sees it.
Ji Yuxian nodded lightly, called Jin Feng in, and drank soup together.
"Drink a bowl of soup and warm yourself up, Jin Feng should go back and rest!" Ji Yuxian said.
The nanny was serving the soup, and she hurriedly said, "Master, I misunderstood what the old slave meant. It is Feng'er's duty to guard the master. If the master does not sleep, how can he go to rest first?"
"It's okay, after drinking the soup, I'm going to sleep too!" Ji Yuxian smiled faintly.
The nanny filled the soup and handed it to Ji Yuxian first, and then to Jin Feng. Looking at the two of them, she smiled lovingly, "I used to make soup for you when you were young. grown up!"
Jin Feng laughed softly, "No matter how many years, it is Jin Feng's luck to still be by Young Master's side!"
Ji Yuxian drank half a bowl of soup and raised his lips slightly.
"Yes, if you can accompany the young master, even if one day I'm gone, you can go away with peace of mind!" said the nanny.
"Mother, it's so nice, why are you saying this in front of the young master?" Jin Feng frowned.
"Nurse will live a long life!" Ji Yuxian said gently.
"Yes, I'm confused, talking nonsense, drink up, and go to bed early after drinking. Maybe it will rain soon!" the nanny said hurriedly.
After finishing the soup, the nanny put it away, left with Jin Feng, and left the study.
Ji Yuxian sat behind the desk and did not put away the account books until the candles dimmed, and got up to go to sleep.
Behind the study is a screen with flowers blooming all the year round, and behind it is a bed with brocade quilts and soft pillows.
Ji Yuxian took off his clothes and lay down on the bed, with one person missing beside him, feeling more and more empty, even his arms seemed to have no place to rest.
Sure enough, it began to rain again, from slow to rapid, and then from rapid to slow, without stopping.
I don't know if Su Jiu fell asleep, or she couldn't fall asleep because of the noise of the rain, Ji Yuxian pursed her thin lips with a gentle smile, and slowly closed her eyes.
After the third watch, the rain stopped. The night was as dark as ink, and all the sounds in the world seemed to be washed away by this heavy rain.
The candles in the study had been extinguished, and the room was dark and quiet. Suddenly, the door creaked slightly, and a figure walked in slowly.
After closing the door behind his back, the visitor got used to the darkness of the room and walked slowly inside.
Turning around the screen and looking at the bed, Ben Cihe's face was expressionless at this moment, and it looked more eerie and strange in the darkness.
Raindrops dripped from the eaves and hit the banana leaves under the window. The slight sound, like human sighs, made the night quiet.
The person who came in stood there for a long while before walking towards the bed again.
Sitting on the edge of the bed, she sighed lightly, her voice hoarse, "Hey, this old slave is also helpless, I hope you will understand me!"
After finishing speaking, he raised his hand and sniffed at the person on the bed.
As soon as she stretched out her hand, suddenly there was a slight sound of gears turning behind the bed, and the bookshelves slowly moved to the two sides. Su Jiu came out slowly holding a shark candle gauze lantern, and said with a smile, "Nurse is really loyal, and she returned it in the middle of the night." Come and serve my husband."
The girl was smiling, her face was delicate, but the dim light in her hand reflected her worry like a ghost, the woman sitting on the edge of the bed was startled, she fell down on the bed and pointed at Su Jiu, " you you"
The girl came over, her smile getting colder, "Did the nanny do something wrong? Why are you so terrified?"
"So it's Young Madam!" The nanny said tremblingly, got up slowly, and said with a dry smile, "It's rainy and cold tonight, the young master sleeps in the study alone, the old servant is worried about coming over to have a look."
Said and took a step back, "Since the young lady is here, the old slave will leave!"
Turn around and walk out hastily.
"Nurse!" A deep voice suddenly came from behind, and the woman's footsteps were suddenly nailed there.
Su Jiu laughed softly, "My husband is still alive? What a surprise!"
The nanny shuddered and turned around slowly, seeing that Ji Yuxian had already sat up, lazily leaning against the bed, under the candlelight, a pair of phoenix eyes on her unparalleled handsome face looked at her coldly.
The nanny hurriedly got down, "The old servant disturbed the young master's rest in the middle of the night, he really deserves to die!"
Ji Yuxian's eyes were dim, indifferent and cold, and he said coolly, "Nurse, are you surprised to see that I'm still alive?"
The nanny asked in fear, "What does the young master mean, the old slave doesn't understand?"
"Don't understand?" Ji Yuxian chuckled, "If you don't understand, why put bloodworms in the lotus seed porridge? Bloodworms can trigger the toxicity of half-moon bites, the nanny must understand!"
The nurse trembled all over, plopped down on her knees, bowed her head and remained silent.
"Nurse deliberately let me eat with Jinfeng, and told me to lower my vigilance, but I have been suffering from half-moon bites for more than ten years, how can I not understand that blood worms do no harm to ordinary people at all!"
The nanny shook her head in panic, "Master misunderstood, this old slave doesn't know what blood worms are, if this old slave really drank blood worms in the soup, the master's toxicity has already occurred."
Su Jiu watched the woman's sophistry with cold eyes, and the coldness in her eyes became more and more intense.
Ji Yuxian got up slowly, walked to the table and poured a cup of tea, and said slowly, "Nurse, this bloodworm has been raised for five years! Bloodworms should be kept in a cool place, out of sunlight, and treated with cordyceps, salvia miltiorrhiza, etc. Every month and a half, she still sucks human blood. Five years ago, my nanny suddenly became ill. Doctor Gu told me after taking her pulse, that she was raising bloodworms. I knew then that my nanny was still alive Don't give up and take my life!"
Su Jiu turned her head to look at Ji Yuxian in astonishment, but only saw his back, hidden in the darkness, vague and lonely.
He knew a long time ago, so he knew five years ago, that the nanny, whom he regarded as his relative, was plotting to kill him.
When the nanny heard this, she slumped down on the ground, her face pale.
"Nurse must be wondering why I am still safe after eating the blood worms that you have carefully fed. Actually, there is no need to be too confused. Since I know that you are raising blood worms, why don't I leave a way out for myself and be rationed by Doctor Gu every month?" Your pills are all mixed with detoxification ingredients, so the blood worms raised by the nanny with her own blood have long been unable to induce half-moon bites, they are just ordinary worms!"
The nanny calmed down after a moment of astonishment, and sneered, "Since the young master already knows, why don't you just kill the old slave?"
Ji Yuxian turned around and looked at her coldly, "I know who is behind your backstage. Back then, she made you eat half of my food because she was jealous that I was the eldest son. But the Ji family has no master, She couldn't kill me, so she tried her best to find this kind of poison, and made me suffer pain that ordinary people can't bear."
The nanny looked up at Ji Yuxian, her previous panic was gone, she just sneered, "So you know everything!"
"The last time Jin Mi was sent back to the other garden, I wanted to see Jin Feng's loyalty and the nanny's care for me, so I didn't care about the past, but the nanny was willing to be used by others. Even at the expense of his own daughter, he sent Jin Mi back to the Ji Mansion again, you let her monitor me, and then report to her."
"Yes!" The nanny knelt on the ground with her back straight, "Young Master's guess is right!"
"mother!"
As soon as the woman finished speaking, she heard a scream from behind the screen.
The woman's complexion changed, and she turned her head suddenly.
Jin Mi and Jin Feng stood behind the screen at some point and heard all the conversation inside.
Jin Feng's face was full of shock, as if he couldn't accept such a fact, his face was terribly pale.
In his heart, his mother is a kind woman who treats the eldest son as his own, better than his own son, and even sacrificed her own life to save the eldest son.The eldest son has always been kind to his mother, and specially built a separate garden that is warm in winter and cool in summer for her to take care of her. Behind such deep love and righteousness, why are there so many dirty tricks hidden.
He couldn't accept it at all for a while!
Jin Mi even burst into tears, walked out from the screen, knelt beside the nanny, and cried, "Mother, this is not true, it is not true, how could you harm the young master, you are better to the young master than the elder brother, no of!"
She has served Ji Yuxian for more than ten years, and every time she visits Bieyuan, her mother will ask about Ji Yuxian's affairs clearly. She always thought that her mother cared about the young master, but it turned out to be surveillance!
Why is this happening?
She was being used by her own mother, she liked Ji Yuxian, and she was doing things to hurt him, why did she treat her like this?
Jin Mi cried on the wet nurse, "Mother, why is this happening? Why?"
This time her leg injury was actually premeditated, that day when she saw Ji Yuxian and Su Jiu making out together, she walked out of the courtyard sullenly, and happened to meet the second wife.
The second lady told her that Ji Yuxian still loves her in her heart, and if something happens to her, she will be anxious and distressed.
It just so happened that that night she was knocked down by the young lady's nanny and cut her leg, so she used this to make the leg injury worse in order to attract Ji Yuxian's attention.
Only now did I realize that the Second Madam's original intention was to lure the nanny to Ji's mansion after her accident, so that her mother would personally kill Ji Yuxian.
But she didn't understand why her mother listened to the second wife, why did she go with the second wife?
The nanny looked at her daughter in tears, and said in a choked voice, "If your mother is gone, you and your brother should take care of each other and stop being willful!"
Jin Mi wept bitterly and shook her head, climbed to Ji Yuxian's feet, and begged, "Young master, my mother was confused for a moment, she never wanted to kill you, she wanted to kill you, how could she rush into the fire to save you, how could she do it for you? Blocking the knife? The young master was deceived by others and wronged my mother."
Ji Yuxian looked at her indifferently, his eyes fell on grandma, and said softly, "Nurse may not know that when you rushed into the fire to save me, I didn't completely pass out, I heard it very clearly, you hugged me At that time, you shouted 'Feng'er'. At that time, you thought it was Jin Feng who was burned in the fire, so you rushed in desperately, right? And that time when someone was going to kill me, and you came to block the knife, You were pushed over by someone, and I have never forgotten the look of surprise and fear on your face."
Jin Mi stayed there for a while, with tears still on her face, looking at Ji Yuxian in astonishment.
Suddenly turned to look at the woman, and asked in a trembling voice, "Mother, is what the young master said true?"
The woman closed her eyes, her face was ashen, and she said softly, "Yes, I never thought of saving you!"
Jin Mi's face turned pale all of a sudden, and she fell to the ground dejectedly.
It turned out that everything was fake!
Kindness is fake, love is fake, everything is fake!
"Why did you do this? Mother, why did you do this?" Jin Mi rushed over, grabbed the woman by the collar, and shook it vigorously.
The woman looked crazily sad, as if the world she had lived in for nearly 20 years was collapsing before her eyes in an instant.
When Su Jiu heard this from the side, she felt extremely heavy in her heart, pressed against her chest, and even began to have trouble breathing. She reached out to hold Ji Yuxian's hand, and held it firmly.
At this moment, she finally understood why something was wrong with Ji Yuxian at night?
At that time, he had already guessed that the nanny was going to do something to him, so he must have felt very sad.
His father died young and his mother was seriously ill. The nanny raised him and stayed by his side all the time. He really regarded the nanny as his relative and Jinfeng as his brother, so even if he later found out that the poison on his body was caused by the nanny , and never did anything to this woman!
He had been hoping that the nanny would give up the blood worm, but he was disappointed in the end!
"Mother, why on earth did you do this? Tell me!" Jin Mi was still questioning, unable to believe it.
The woman looked pained, "I am here to avenge your father!"
Ji Yuxian narrowed his eyes slightly, and Jin Mi was even more stunned, "Father? Didn't you say that father died of illness?"
"No, your father was killed by Ji Zhongyi!" The woman gritted her teeth and said bitterly.
"My father?" Ji Yuxian frowned, "Who told you this? She?"
The woman looked up at Ji Yuxian, "My husband was in charge of the business in the Ji Mansion back then, and was in charge of the business in Chongzhou. Later, a villain got in the way, saying that my husband embezzled the owner's money. Ji Zhongyi listened to the slander and secretly killed my husband!"
Jin Mi was stunned, and stared blankly at Ji Yuxian, could it be that there was a hatred between them for killing their father?
Ji Yuxian's eyes were cold, "Is this what Uncle Jin told you?"
The woman paused, "No, when I rushed to Chongzhou to see my husband, he was already dead. I found out later by myself."
"Didn't someone let you see the truth on purpose?" Ji Yuxian sneered, his father was upright and acted upright, there was no way he would do such a thing!
"The truth is the truth, whether someone else let me find out on purpose is also the truth!" The woman has maintained her belief for more than ten years, so she will naturally persist.
Ji Yuxian didn't say any more, knowing that women would not believe him.
He was still young and didn't know about what happened back then. He believed in his father, but evidence can explain everything!
"The matter has come to this point, I have nothing to say, the eldest son wants to kill or cut up at will. It's just that Mi'er and Feng'er are innocent, and they don't know what I did. I hope you will not kill everything!" The decision to die.
Jin Mi just knelt aside and wept.
Ji Yuxian looked at the woman indifferently, and shouted, "Jin Feng!"
Jin Feng had been standing behind the screen, at this time Fang Chen stepped over, knelt on the ground with his knees down, bowed his head, "Master!"
His figure was heavy, as if a thousand catties weighed him down.
Su Jiu looked at him, and suddenly thought, not only Ji Yuxian, but also Jin Feng was hurt in the whole incident. He has always believed in loyal people and things, but after today, they all fell. Fatal blow.
Ji Yuxian said, "Send your mother and Jinmi to the other garden!"
The woman suddenly raised her head, her eyes were red, "What is the meaning of this, eldest son?"
She knew Ji Yuxian's decisive nature, and he knew what he had done, so she thought she would die for sure!
Jin Feng said, "My mother intends to kill the young master. She is old and seriously ill. The son should bear all the responsibilities for her. Whether the young master reports to the government or lynches, Jin Feng has no complaints!"
Ji Yuxian's expression was gloomy, "Jin Feng, you have been loyal to me for more than ten years. That other garden is my gift to you. Take your mother and sister back. From then on, we will have nothing to do with each other, and we will settle our grievances! "
Jin Feng's body trembled, and he lowered his head heavily.
The woman didn't want to, and shouted angrily, "You don't need to be so tolerant with hypocrisy, you Ji family members are all good at buying people's hearts! The other garden belongs to your Ji mansion, it belongs to my enemy, and I live in it." Every day I feel that my life will be shortened by one day, I would rather die than go back!"
Ji Yuxian's face remained unchanged, and he took Su Jiu's hand and walked out, "Wherever you want to go, you can do whatever you want!"
"Ji Yuxian, kill me! I don't want to be favored by you again, Ji Yuxian!" The woman cried out in pain, making a gesture to rush forward.
Stopped by Jin Feng and Jin Mi, crying out in pain,
"mother!"
The woman yelled and fell limply on the ground, "The Ji family is our sworn enemy, our enemy!"
When Su Jiu and Ji Yuxian left the study room, they could still hear the heart-piercing cries of the woman in the room, echoing in the silent rainy night, it sounded like a creepy despair and pain.
