Nine-fold lotus of the famous family

Chapter 204 Zhou Yu Proposes Marriage, Everyone Considers (1)
"Brother Ze, do you think this Mr. Zhou looks familiar?"

Ji Mingxuan was not in a hurry to step forward at the moment, he pulled Ji Chongze's sleeve and asked in a low voice.

Ji Chongze only gave a bitter smile when he heard the words, "I know this Mr. Zhou. He was a classmate in ethnology."

It is not that Ji Chongze is not envious of the poor students who were originally dependent on others, but now they can soar into the sky, but he is not the material after all, so naturally he stopped thinking about it.

"Hey, why don't I know?"

Ji Mingxuan looked at Ji Chongze in surprise. If there were any new Jinshi in the Ji family, the patriarch would have been told by people beating gongs and drums a long time ago. This Mr. Zhou is not surnamed Ji, why is he still in the Ji family? Been in school?
"Master Zhou's mother is the sister of the second wife of the family. The orphan and widow originally stayed in the family, but she left for some reason three years ago. Now..."

Now he doesn't need to say anything, Ji Chongze's own information is so limited.

When he was in the ethnology school, Zhou Yu was often ridiculed and ridiculed by others, but this young man was always silent. Although his robes were washed white with starch, he loved being clean very much.

Such a person would have a day of elation, which even Ji Chongze himself did not expect.

In a daze, Zhou Yu had already stepped forward, cupping his hands with a smile on his lips, "Brother Chongze, congratulations!"

Ji Youlan is the third sister in the family, and she is Ji Chongze's concubine sister. He should come to congratulate her brother on his marriage. Thinking of this relationship, he can't help being a little closer to Ji Chongze and Zhou Yu.

"Master Zhou is too polite!"

Ji Chongze naturally stepped forward and bowed to give a salute. Ji Mingxuan had already moved over, and smiled obsequiously: "Could it be that Mr. Zhou came here specially to attend Brother Ze's wedding..."

"Cough cough..."

As soon as Ji Mingxuan said this, both Zhou Yu and Ji Chongze coughed unnaturally at the same time, and Ji Chongze's fair and handsome face flushed even more.

He and Zhou Yu haven't gotten along that well yet, Ji Mingxuan's words are really too abrupt.

After a little embarrassment, Zhou Yu smiled indifferently, "It's not on purpose, I came back to visit my aunt, and it coincides with the auspicious day of Chongze's marriage, so naturally I should come to congratulate!"

Zhou Yu's words resolved the embarrassment, and Ji Chongze's complexion improved a bit.

"Master Zhou really has a heart!"

Ji Mingxuan welcomed people in with a smile. Today was full of surprises. It was really not wrong for him to be a foreign visitor, and he made a few new rich people, which is a great reward.

Ji Chonglian is sitting in the Xuan hall of Mrs. Ji at the moment, the wives and girls from various families who came to attend the wedding are also present, everyone is congratulating and complimenting, Yao Shi and Rong Zhi have to socialize, the scene is very lively.

At Ji Chongze's wedding, Ji Minghui naturally also came. She had the highest status among the female family members present, and sat in the first seat under Mrs. Ji. No matter who came up to chat with her, she would always return a dignified and appropriate smile, although she was polite. To the extreme, but there is always such a sense of alienation.

Ji Chonglian originally wanted to go forward, but Ji Minghui's eyes never fell on her after entering the room, Ji Chonglian felt a little uncomfortable.

Turning her head to see Shi Rou and Ji Yuejing sitting together and chatting happily, Ji Chonglian thought for a while, then moved over.

"Fifth Cousin!"

Seeing Ji Chonglian approaching, Shi Rou smiled sweetly at her, Ji Yueqing hurriedly got up and saluted, "Fifth Miss!"

"Don't be so polite, it's all my family!"

Ji Chonglian smiled and took the two of them's hands to sit down, and asked with concern: "Do you want to add some snacks, if you like any flavor, just tell me, I will ask someone to bring some for you when you go back."

Ji Yueqing was slightly surprised, "Fifth Miss is really too polite."

Shi Rou sticks out her tongue, and takes Ji Chonglian's hand with a smile, "My fifth cousin is a nice person, she can do whatever she says, so she won't do those empty things, just be more refreshing!"

Ji Yueqing also thanked her with a smile when she heard the words. After all, her eyes were not bad, and she seemed to see what Ji Chonglian wanted to say to Shi Rou, so she left for a while with an excuse, and gave the place to their sisters.

"Why haven't I seen the eldest cousin and the third cousin?"

Shi Rou looked around for a while, she seemed to see the figures of the two in a daze just now, how come there are no one when she turns her head?
"They like to be quiet, so they come out to show their faces, and then they go back to their own garden."

Ji Chonglian smiled and looked at Shi Rou. Although this cousin is not beautiful, she is smart and cute. She grew up under the doting of her parents, innocent and carefree, and she was very envious of her.

"Oh!"

Shi Rou suddenly realized that Ji Youlan's face was already bruised, if so many wives and girls took turns looking at her, she would inevitably feel uncomfortable, but Ji Furong...

"I remember that the eldest cousin especially likes to be lively, why is it that she has changed her sex after she is married?"

Shi Rou frowned, looking puzzled, Ji Chonglian couldn't help laughing, and flicked her forehead with her fingers, "Only when my cousin is married will we know about this problem!"

Shi Rou was startled, and then realized that Ji Chonglian was making fun of her, she couldn't help but blushed, and pouted, "My fifth cousin makes fun of her!"

"Rou'er has become a big girl in an instant!"

Ji Chonglian lightly smoothed Li Shirou's sideburns, and Shirou laughed a little when she heard that, "The fifth cousin is only a month older than me, why does she sound like my mother?"

"haha, really?"

Ji Chonglian smiled nonchalantly, and looked down on her fingers, "Did your elder brother write back?"

The smile on Shi Rou's face was suppressed in an instant, and she sighed: "I have arrived in the northwest, and I only received the letter to report safety yesterday, and my mother feels even worse."

When Shi Rou said this, she looked at Ji Minghui's side, and she couldn't help but said angrily: "I don't know what the elder brother thinks, what kind of army should he join?! His mother asked him to stay under his father's command, and he didn't obey. It's not good to be like the second brother, if you insist on running so far away, you will make your mother worry about him for nothing!"

Ji Chonglian only felt her heart skip a beat, and a sour feeling gradually spread.

If Shi Rou knew that all this happened because of her, her favorite elder brother would go to the northwest. With such a fact in front of her eyes, would Shi Rou blame her?

But Ji Chonglian didn't muster up the courage to speak out, and Shi Rou sighed: "Mother is not feeling well these days, fifth cousin, mother liked you the most in the past, and when you are free, spend more time with her, comfort and relieve her One time!"

"it is good!"

Ji Chonglian nodded, but her smile was slightly bitter.
