Chapter 97

In summer, the whole maple forest in front of Ji's house turned red.

The maple forest, which was as red as blood, densely covered the entire maple forest. Coincidentally, this maple forest led to a distant mountain, so the bright red color could not be seen at a glance, as if the sky was about to be burned. It's like getting up.

In addition to being spectacular, I once again sighed that the rich are really inhumane, and it also made me full of apprehension about the upcoming ghost catching ceremony.

I wouldn't naively think that the scene in front of me has nothing to do with the grieving ghost Yin Wushuang mentioned earlier.

Mr. Ji was also alarmed by this incident, and was pushed by Butler Yu to the front of Fenglin after a while.

Early in the morning, he looked much less energetic than yesterday, his eyes were deeply black, and he could tell at a glance that he hadn't slept well all night.

On the contrary, Butler Yu beside him, although he was busy all night, was obviously very energetic.

"This...Master Yin, look..."

Mr. Ji was probably mentally weak. Seeing the scene in front of him, he found Yin Wushuang and asked without saying a word.

Yin Wushuang was standing in front of Fenglin frowning at this moment, apparently also finding the problem difficult.

Hearing Mr. Ji's words, he turned around and said, "Master Ji, I'm afraid this matter will be a little troublesome."

After hearing this, old man Ji didn't say a word. It seemed that he was waiting for him to write later.

"When the matter has come to this point, I will not hide it from you. The ability of this grieving ghost is beyond my previous estimation. If you want my help, you must at least explain the cause and effect of the matter clearly."

Hearing this, I also subconsciously looked at Mr. Ji.

Yin Wushuang and I both know what secrets are hidden in the Ji family.At this time, I really don't understand what else I can't say.

"This one……"

Mr. Ji hesitated for a moment, judging from his reaction, it was indeed exactly what Yin Wushuang said, they were hiding something.

Seeing that he was still hesitating, Yin Wushuang's tone was not as polite as it was at the beginning, and he said directly, "Now you can also see that this grieving ghost's ability is not weak, and it can only develop like this without being taken away by the underworld. Because the karma on him is over. If you continue to hide it, it won't do you any good."

"Hey... It's our fault." Mr. Ji sighed, finally gave up the entanglement in his heart, looked at Yin Wushuang and said, "Master Yin, please follow me into the room and talk about it."

Yin Wushuang looked at me, then at Mr. Ji, then nodded in agreement.

Although preparations were made for the wedding, it was put on hold for the time being.

Yin Wushuang and I followed Mr. Ji back to the living room, and then Mr. Ji dismissed all the servants, leaving only the housekeeper.

"Master Ji, if you have anything to say, you can talk about it now." Yin Wushuang had a rare serious look on his face, which made me nervous too.

Mr. Ji looked at Yin Wushuang helplessly, "It's because we are sorry for my daughter..."

He said, Nannan is Miss Ji's nickname.

"Nannan's marriage is not very good for her. It is said that she is well-matched and married to a powerful family in the city, but I know the old man. The fiancé of Nannan has been sick since childhood. Not to mention being her husband, I'm afraid it's hard to say whether she can live for a few years. The girl married, and she just wanted to have a good time, to see if she could give him a few more breaths."

"In addition, her fiancé is not the core heir of the other family, but just a nephew of the current patriarch. This relationship is not far or near. Even if the husband is gone, the family property will be limited. The rest is a widow with no money. I’m just such a granddaughter, and I didn’t want to wrong her like this, but the family’s business has been tight in recent years, and I have no other way to get the funds back.”

As Mr. Ji said, tears rolled in his eyes.At this moment, I didn't feel the glamor of him being a local tyrant with money and status at all, and gradually he was left with the helplessness of a helpless old man.

But I couldn't tell him to take it easy. I knew that for people like them, it was impossible to give up business.

On the other hand, Yin Wushuang kept his face unchanged and asked coldly, "So, Miss Ji actually doesn't like this marriage. But what does this have to do with resentment? Even if she is resentful in her heart, she is still a living person, so she won't be able to There was such a big commotion."

I complained in my heart that this guy has no sympathy at all, but I have to admire his professionalism and keep calm at all times.

"This... I think it's her mother, Izumi Youzhi, who doesn't want her daughter to suffer such a fate." When Mr. Ji talked about Miss Ji's mother, his tone was obviously a bit regretful.

It was only then that I noticed that A Cai had introduced the personnel relationship in Ji's family before.

The eldest young master of the Ji family died early, the second young master spent his days and nights, and the third young master was in charge of the business. Miss Ji was a lonely lady who was raised in a deep boudoir and no one cared about her.

This seems to be no problem at all, but there is only one thing missing.

The eldest lady's mother was originally the best person to accompany her growing up.

But unfortunately, it seemed that everyone had forgotten her, and no one mentioned her.

Now that Mr. Ji said it, everything has a more reasonable explanation.Her mother was not unwilling to accompany her, but died very early.

This incident probably had a considerable impact on Ji's family, so no one mentioned it like a taboo.

"Why did Miss Ji's mother die?"

Yin Wushuang's questioning sound came again, the tone didn't change much, but it wanted to uncover the old wounds of this family that had been forgotten for many years.

Mr. Ji replied, "dystocia. When she gave birth to her daughter, her mother died of dystocia. At that time, everyone advised her to give up the child, but she insisted on giving birth to the child, even if she paid the price of her life. She It was because she exchanged her own life for her to be able to come to this world, that's why she can't accept her marrying a dying person."

Speaking of this, Mr. Ji couldn't help being moved.

But I subconsciously caressed my own lower abdomen.

There is also a little life waiting to come into this world, so I sincerely agree with Mr. Ji's words.I used to not believe that a mother's love can be so selfless that it doesn't even care about myself. Otherwise, where would all the news of belittling or even abusing one's own children come from?

But it was not until I was about to become a mother myself that I realized that those stories about maternal love were not necessarily stories. This feeling of blood connection made me instinctively feel that children are more important than myself.

Even if it's not human at all.
