Nine-fold lotus of the famous family

Chapter 171 His Choice, Returning to Danyang (3)
"Ah."

Qin Zidu slowly sat up straight, tapped his index finger rhythmically on the octagonal mahogany round table, his gaze gradually became serious.

He has also stayed in Danyang for a while, and he has to figure out a way as soon as possible. Gu Xueyan can afford it, but the date of departure is getting shorter and shorter, and he can't wait any longer.

"Come on, let's go out for a walk!"

Qin Zi didn't even want to stay at Ji's house, so he simply went out to get some air, maybe he came up with this way.

"Okay!"

Huawei was so happy when he heard that he was going out, he was already itching in his heart, even if he wandered around Danyang Street, it was better than staying in this house.

Ji Chonglian accompanied the old lady Ji to have lunch, and the two grandparents chatted aside, and accidentally talked about Ji Chonglian's handling of the servants, the old lady sighed, and said in a deep voice: "It's also because I'm so weak. People lack discipline, which makes them lawless, and you are right to do this, the family rules should be established, otherwise, if there are guests visiting in the future, it will be a joke!"

"Grandma doesn't blame me for being severely punished?"

Ji Chonglian blinked. The old lady Ji never mentioned Qin Zidu's matter to her, and she didn't know whether she was trying to avoid it or had other plans, but the old lady didn't open her mouth, so how could she ask directly?
"The servants are talking badly, and it is the master's reputation that is bad. No amount of punishment can be too high for such a person."

The old lady Ji straightened her back, and her eyes turned cold in an instant. It seems that this matter also leaked from Xuanyitang. The people in Xuanyitang have followed her for many years, and she really wants to punish her , she was a little bit ruthless, the older a person is, the softer his heart becomes, if Ji Chonglian were to do this, she would agree with it with both hands.

"Yes, the granddaughter is relieved when grandma says that."

Ji Chonglian responded with a smile, got up and rubbed Mrs. Ji's shoulders and legs, and there was silence between the two grandparents for a while.

After a long while, I heard the old lady say: "It's not that I don't want to tell you about this, it's just that grandma wants to see it again."

Ji Chonglian's face turned red when she heard this, but she couldn't suppress the doubt in her heart, she couldn't help biting her lips and said: "Grandmother, why did the Qin family propose marriage to our family? The granddaughter doesn't understand..."

"Hey!"

The old lady Ji sighed, then pulled Ji Chonglian up, patted the back of her hand and said: "This is also the fate that your father made in the past, if not, do you really think I will let them return to Danyang?"

"grandmother?"

Ji Chonglian looked at Mrs. Ji in surprise. The previously vague events were suddenly linked together, and her thoughts suddenly brightened.

It turns out that the old lady allowed Ji Mingxuan and Aunt Liu to return to Danyang because of her? !

"You know what our Ji's family is like now. Although your uncle has recovered, but after all, a single tree cannot grow into a forest. If there is no help from the court, it will not work..."

Although the old lady Ji also wanted to find a good marriage for Ji Chonglian, she also made many considerations in private, and she must choose the one that is most beneficial to the entire Ji family.

Ji Minghui is the married daughter of the Ji family, no matter whether the Shi family gets closer to the Ji family or not, this relationship cannot be broken.

But in the Qin family, first Qin Zuojun served as the deputy envoy of the Salt Transport Department, and later Qin Zi was appointed by the emperor as Tanhualang. How many people like this upstart in the court are waiting to curry favor, but are bound by the marriage contract back then. As far as the Qin family is concerned, it can be said that it is a good relationship from heaven.

During these days, she has also paid close attention to Qin Zidu. Although the impetuousness and arrogance of young people are indispensable occasionally, his character is generally trustworthy, his manners are gentle, and he is a good-looking talent.
Looking at Ji Chonglian again, she is beautiful, meticulous, and dignified, and she feels that the two are as compatible as a golden boy and a jade girl.

Ji Chonglian remained silent, but her heart sank slowly. At this moment, Pei Yan's figure uncontrollably appeared in her mind, and she suddenly felt a sense of astringency in her heart.

He said to ask her to wait for him. Although she didn't respond, she had been doing it subconsciously.

But now Mrs. Ji suddenly wants her to accept Qin Zidu and let her marry into the Qin family. Although it is for the benefit of the entire Ji family on the one hand, which girl can refuse such a talented Tanhualang?

Ji Chonglian glanced at the old lady Ji sadly. If the old lady really decided, can she still refuse?
"what happened?"

Sensing the depression of Ji Chonglian's complex, the old lady Ji immediately turned serious, looked her left and right, took her hand and squeezed it gently, "Of course grandma won't agree to this marriage for you, Mr. Qin's character Grandmother sees sex and appearance, that's the best...Of course, even though grandma likes it, you still need to look at it..."

Mrs. Ji said this, thought for a while, and said: "How about this, one day I will find a chance to call Mr. Qin to come alone, and then you can hide behind the screen and take a look, if you still don't like it , Grandma will never force you to say anything."

Mrs. Ji's words were for Ji Chonglian's sake. She had no reason to refuse at all, so she could only nod in response.

"Your eldest aunt is too good at this person, even she can't pick out a job, can you say it's okay?"

Seeing that Ji Chonglian was still in a daze, the old lady Ji dragged Ji Minghui out to talk about the matter. She knew that the two aunts and nephews had a good relationship on weekdays, so maybe with Ji Minghui's reassurance, this girl would be more receptive.

"It's been a long time since I saw my eldest aunt."

Only then did Ji Chonglian take a deep breath and raised her head.

Since that day she ordered Hong Ying to send Ge Er back to Shifu, and attached a letter written by herself, counting the days, there was indeed no news from Ji Minghui for a long time.

"Your eldest aunt..."

The old lady Ji sighed at this point, "Your eldest cousin insists on joining the army, but your eldest aunt can't stop him. Now that he has left, she may be a little sad."

"what?"

Ji Chonglian's eyes widened in shock, she felt her heart beating tremblingly, and her words were as soft as cotton wool, "When did this happen?"

"It's been a few days. It seems that your eldest cousin left home the day after you dealt with the servant."

The old lady Ji sighed and shook her head, "I never saw him being so stubborn before, I thought he was just acting like a strong brother under your uncle's appointment, but who knew he was going to join the army in the frontier fortress, It just so happened that your eldest uncle had some friendship with General Luo under the Throne of Yan, so he was sent to the northwest..."

It's Northwest again, isn't that with Pei Yan?
Ji Chonglian swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, her hands were tightly twisted on her knees, but her heart could no longer calm down.
