Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

Chapter 484 The Ji family has no offspring with the surname Ji (Part [-])
The rituals are neatly stacked in the hall, and there are many boxes, large and small, scattered and orderly.

No matter how carefully it was taken care of, but the rain was too heavy, and it was inevitable that it would be partially wet. The rainwater pooled into small puddles of water stains on the bluestone brick floor.

The old lady was sitting in the upper seat, her hands were clenched tightly, her fingertips unconsciously pinched her tiger's jaw, her lips were trembling as she stared at Ji Wuyan, "Girl...you..."

Ji's surname is not a common surname at all.

Even when we met for the first time, I was shocked by the similar look in this girl's eyes and that person's, but it only made me a little more liking and protective, but more, it was gone.

I dare not have.

She understands that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.What's more, even though they are similar, if you look closely, they have completely different temperaments. That person is like a fire, free and easy, but this young girl is like a shadowless wind, with a bit of unpredictable coldness in her chic, deeper It's more hidden, and it's more hidden... Look, she actually hides such a secret.

"It's... the old lady." Ji Wuyan got up halfway, and slightly bowed his knees to salute, "The little girl comes from the Ji family in Yunzhou, and is a branch of the Ji family. I have no choice but to hide something before, and I hope the old lady will not blame her." .”

After finishing speaking, it was another salute.

The old lady Bai didn't speak, her tiger's jaw was pinched and stabbed intermittently, only this kind of pain could keep her sitting upright on the chair like this without showing any strangeness.The little girl probably didn't know how much she knew about the Ji family's affairs, so she said such a thing.

The Ji family, an ancient tribe with a history of hundreds of years, occupied Saibei in the early years, and was a real behemoth.A woman is in charge of the house, and the saint is the respected, monopolizing the power.The rules in the clan are strict, and the surname "Ji" is a symbol of power for this ancient tribe. Even though the Ji family has been around for a hundred years and has many members, not everyone can use "Ji" as the surname. It is an honor, but also a responsibility, there is no such honor for a broken bloodline.

The identity of this little girl...is clearly revealed.

Old Madam Bai's eyes fell on the corners of her eyes with a little cinnabar, looking at this not particularly brilliant appearance, she secretly had a guess.Because of this speculation, the heartache became more and more convulsive. How difficult and helpless is it for such a big child to leave his hometown and come to the unaccompanied city of Yanjing?However, she didn't mention a word, even if she showed her favor many times, she never asked the Bai family for help...

Damn girl...

"Old lady..."

The nurse behind reminded her, and the old lady Bai trembled suddenly with her fingertips grasping the tiger's mouth, she came to her senses, looked Ji Wuyan carefully from head to toe, then smiled and waved her hand, letting her sit down without revealing herself. He reprimanded sternly, "Grandma, grandma called me before, but I haven't seen you for a long time, so it's strange, right?" The smile in his eyes couldn't be faked, and his eyes were full of kindness.At first, I thought I was very close to this girl, but now I like it more and more in my heart.

"Grandmother..." she called, pursing her lips slightly, as if aggrieved, like a cat that has been neglected all the time, "I thought I had hidden things from you before, but now you are going to annoy me... so I dare not continue Calling your grandmother."

"Annoyed? Of course I'm annoyed!" The old lady said with a tigerish face, "If this kid hadn't come to visit me, why would you still want to keep this old woman from telling me when? If you don’t cultivate, what kind of juniors you teach will really pass through the door and not enter!" In the end, she swallowed "your grandmother" back on her lips, this girl is hiding her hidden identity, if she suddenly exposes it like this , Everyone is embarrassed, and it will be troublesome to explain it at that time. Forget it, forget it.

Thinking like this, he turned to Shangguan Chu and asked, "I heard that your business is doing well these years, how is your family doing?"

"Going back to the old lady, everything is fine at home, but before leaving, my grandmother asked me to send you a letter, saying... everything is fine, I just miss you." Saying that, she got up and handed it over.

Mammy stepped out to receive the letter, but was stopped by the old lady.

Standing up halfway, the outstretched hands are trembling, trembling with traces of old age, but also the shyness and apprehension of a young girl.After hesitating for a moment, he held the envelope in his hand, but he didn't open it. He just lowered his head and trembled, rubbing his fingertips carefully. There was a mark of the pinch on the tiger's mouth.

"I just miss... she speaks nicely, and I miss her often writing to me... I'm old, but I'm still like this, and I'm used to saying nice things to bluff people." There was disgust in the words, but the actions were serious, After caressing carefully, he carefully put it into his arms, seemed a little worried, and patted his chest, with a smile under his eyes, and the creases at the corners of his eyes gradually deepened.

After a while, he murmured softly, "This old guy..."

"In the early years, your grandmother and I...were also people who rode fierce horses and drew big bows together. Now...we are old and have to walk with a cane. She is probably better than me, and her body has always been stronger than me. I'm better. I have to be supported when I go in and out..." Mrs. Bai muttered, and then she looked at the boxes in the hall, "You two children, the money you earned from business It wasn't brought by the strong wind, not to mention that Shangguan's family is now in the south of the Yangtze River and doesn't enjoy the temple salary, and the whole family has to rely on these for food and drink... You said you come here, how can I, an old woman, accept the gift of this car? Take it back take it back!"

"It's not worth a lot of money...they are all Jiangnan specialties, as well as silk products and tea from Yunzhou, which are very cheap in the local area." In front of the elders, Shangguan Chu Lian was domineering, gentle and obedient. The big boy next door couldn't even imagine the way he lightly made people beat Chen Jiahui before.He put down the teacup in his hand, and said, "These were prepared by my grandmother. She knew that the younger generation was coming, and she had thought about it for a long time. She picked them according to your preferences when you were young. Preferences have changed..."

"If the younger generation takes it back tonight, grandma will not blame herself if she finds out about it?"

Speaking of which, it doesn't make sense to take it back.The old sisters haven't seen each other for many years. They originally thought that Shangguan would get married so they could see each other, but I heard that she was very dissatisfied with Shangguan's family marrying her heir, and they would never see each other. Therefore, I haven't seen each other. with.Later, I thought about going to the south of the Yangtze River, but before I set off, there were always such and such things... As I got older, my status got higher, and there were more times when I couldn't help myself.

In such a flash, most of my life has passed.

This time, we should be able to meet... If the marriage between this girl and the Ning family is really going to happen, this old guy must be there.
