Chapter 313: Bastard of the Marquisate (13)

How did the lady suddenly become so beautiful?

Master Ji sat in the room, unable to figure it out.

He clearly remembered that the lady was just plain-looking. She was okay when she was young, and looked very gentle. At that time, he also doted on her for a while.

But gentleness is not as good as the girls in the brothel who are happy to play. Moreover, Madam Ji always controls him in various ways. If he drinks too much, she will control him. If he doesn’t hold an umbrella on rainy days, she will control him. If he goes out for a long time and comes back in the middle of the night, she will always come to him and complain that it is not safe so late.

She always makes all kinds of soups for him to drink. Master Ji has a lot of concubines, is there still a lack of soups?

He soon got annoyed and gradually stopped going to Madam Ji’s yard. One by one, the concubines came in. Although Madam Ji seemed a little uncomfortable at first, she soon cheered up and helped him to properly place these concubines.

Master Ji never had to worry about a fire in the backyard, because Madam Ji was always helping him take care of it.

Until the concubine he favored pushed Chang Yan into the water, from then on, the lady seemed to have never cared about him or smiled at him again.

The two were obviously husband and wife, but they seemed like strangers living in the same mansion.

Master Ji was out drinking and partying, and Madam Ji was the mistress of the house, and they didn't bother each other.

But, how did she suddenly become so beautiful?

Master Ji had no money recently, and the girls in the flower house didn't receive him, and the mistress outside had just broken up with him.

Now when he saw such a beautiful Madam Ji, he immediately had an idea in his mind. After taking a bath, changing clothes and dressing up, he went to the garden for a walk, picked a flower, tidied his hair, and walked towards Madam Ji's yard with his head held high.

It's been too long since he had close contact with Madam Ji. The last few times were quarrels, but Master Ji still remembered that Madam Ji was very easy to coax.

When he took a concubine when he was just married, Madam Ji would be sad and angry. At that time, he only needed to coax her with sweet words, and Madam Ji would forgive him.

As for why the relationship between the two has reached the freezing point for so long, it is because he has not coaxed her anymore.

Now as long as he coaxes her, the lady will definitely be like before.

Thinking of this, Master Ji even had a subtle sense of self-sacrifice. Along the way, he silently recited all kinds of sweet words in his heart and made sufficient preparations.

As long as he can see the lady, he will definitely coax her back.

With this idea, Master Ji was full of confidence.

Then he was stopped at the entrance of Madam Ji's yard.

The girl saluted seriously and said in a calm tone: "Master, the lady has gone to bed, it is not convenient to see you."

Master Ji looked at the big sun hanging in the sky: "At this time? Got to bed??"

The girl remained calm: "Yes, the lady is a little unwell, so she went to bed early."

This is too early.

Master Ji's passion was completely crushed by reality: "Then I will go in without disturbing Madam, you let me in first."

The maid still refused to give in: "Master, Madam told me before going to bed not to see anyone."

"I won't see her, I just put this flower in the room."

Seeing that he couldn't get through, Master Ji frowned and put on his master's style: "Who is the master of the Marquis's Mansion, me or Madam? If you don't get out of the way, I will sell you out."

The maid was not threatened at all, and her tone was still calm: "My indenture is in Madam's hands. If you want to sell me, you can talk to Madam when she wakes up. I have no complaints."

Master Ji: "..."

He simply planned to force his way in, but as soon as he pushed the little girl away, several tall and strong servants in servants' clothes appeared out of nowhere, blocking the door tightly, staring at Master Ji with sharp eyes.

Master Ji: "..."

"Where are you from? Don't you know that servants over the age of sixteen cannot enter the backyard?"

Several servants with muscles all over their bodies and at least 1.9 meters tall stood steadily.

"The young one is fourteen."

"The young one is fifteen."

The last one looked at the strongest man, who looked like he was definitely forty years old, and said in a rough voice: "The young one is thirteen."

Master Ji: "..."

What the hell is thirteen years old? ? Thirty years old is considered young.

"Don't talk nonsense to me, why have I never seen you in the Marquis' Mansion??"

Ji Changze's voice sounded behind him: "It's normal that father has never seen them. These servants were bought by my son outside. They are also pitiful. They sold themselves to bury their father. My son saw that they were young and helpless, so he felt compassion and bought them back to give to his mother to guard the house."

Master Ji was startled by his voice. When he turned around, he was startled by Ji Changyan who was supported by Ji Changze.

"Chang, Chang Yan, why did you get out of bed?"

Ji Chang Yan's face was still a little pale, but he looked much better than before. He was walking slowly with the help of his younger brother.

Hearing his father's words, he smiled slightly: "Father, what are you talking about? My son is not locked up, so why can't I get out of bed and walk around?"

Master Ji's aura disappeared completely in front of this eldest son, and the word "from the heart" was almost written on his face.

"Father didn't mean that. I just said, aren't you sick? Why don't you stay in the house and take good care of yourself? Father, I feel very distressed when I see you."

"Thank you for your concern, father. My son is fine and his illness is almost cured."

As soon as he heard that Ji Changyan had recovered from his illness, Master Ji's expression suddenly froze.

"You, you, are you okay???"

Why is it fine? ? ?

Isn't he about to die? ? ?

Ji Changyan pretended not to see the disbelief and dejection on Mr. Ji's face, and still smiled and replied very gently: "Yes, it is also the credit of Nagasawa. He learned medical skills and treated his son's disease several times. My health is actually much better."

Ji Changze said next to him: "No, my brother's current body will be almost like a normal person if he rests for a while. My father must be happy for my brother. You can't even say anything about your happiness."

Mr. Ji: "..."

He forced out a smile: "Happy, happy, father is naturally happy."

He was so happy that he almost wanted to slap Ji Changze in the face.

After trying hard to adjust in his heart for a few seconds, Mr. Ji managed to squeeze out a smile. He wanted to express his love, but unfortunately he seemed to have failed. His smile was worse than crying.

"Nagaze, why haven't I heard that you have medical skills before? You can actually cure your elder brother's illness. You are really... amazing."

These words "awesome" were almost said through gritted teeth.

"Father is too praiseworthy, and his son never expected that his son has some talent in studying medicine. By the way, father, you are here to find your mother, but what's the matter?"

Seeing Ji Changze's eyes falling on the flower in his hand, Mr. Ji silently hid the flower behind his back.

"It's nothing, I just came to see your mother."

Ji Changze smiled but said: "My mother has been unwell recently and her eyesight is not very good. She can't see my father. It's better for my father not to come looking for my mother in the future."

It took Master Ji a full ten seconds to realize that Ji Changze seemed to be scolding him.

His eyes widened immediately: "You!"

"Brother!"

The little boy who was still talking and wanting to be beaten immediately hid behind Ji Changyan, only showing half of his face: "Brother, you saw it, my father was so cruel to me when you were sick. Last time he came to my yard with a stick. Go and beat me, if not, if my grandfather hadn't arrived in time, I would have been beaten to death."

Mr. Ji: "..."

He slowly raised his eyes stiffly and met Ji Changyan's cold gaze.

Mr. Ji: "...Things are not what you think, Chang Yan."

Ji Changyan did not listen to his explanation, but simply said: "Since father and mother have been separated for many years, it would be better for you to try not to disturb mother in the future."

"As for this."

He was still a little weak, but his steps were very steady after landing. He took two steps towards Master Ji who subconsciously stepped back, and grabbed the flower in his hand.

He threw it on the ground casually and said calmly: "Father didn't have the habit of sending flowers to mother before, and he won't do it again in the future. I'm afraid my mother will be even more upset when she sees it."

Mr. Ji stared blankly at the flower that was thrown to the ground.

She argued in a low voice: "When you were young, I often sent flowers to your mother."

Ji Changyan was unmoved and walked past Master Ji without even looking at him again.

Ji Changze stabbed Mr. Ji: "My father loved my eldest brother when he was a child, but what about now?"

"Brother, wait for me, I have something to ask you."

The Ninth Young Master of the Hou Mansion ran past quickly and stepped on the flower, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

The petals of the flower fell off after being stepped on, looking extremely miserable.

Mr. Ji stood stiffly on the spot for a while, then slowly squatted down and picked up the flower.

In fact, at the beginning, he was really looking forward to the birth of Chang Yan.

After all, it was his first child. At that time, he would sleep in the pregnant Mrs. Ji's room at night. When the child moved in her belly, he would lie gently on her belly and listen.

Later, when his wife gave birth to a child, he anxiously watched the girls carrying basins of water in and out from outside the room. He also clasped his palms together and prayed to God for the safety of their mother and child.

When did he start to feel that his wife was boring?

He felt that Chang Yan's temperament was not like that of a child, which even frightened him.

But from the beginning, this was obviously the eldest son he had been waiting for.

Master Ji held the flower and looked at the broken petals, with a drop of liquid dripping on it.

Mr. Ji: "..."

He looked at the liquid on the petals, freed up a hand to touch his body but couldn't find the handkerchief, so he reached out to the girl.

"Do you have a handkerchief? I'll wipe my nose."

Girl: "..."

She was full of disgust in her heart, and she took out her handkerchief and handed it to Master Ji with an expressionless face, and sternly refused when the other party wanted to give it back to her.

"No need. Master, just take it and use it. I have other veils."

Who wants a handkerchief with a snot stained on it?

Master Ji was completely unaware of the other party's dislike, but instead looked up and down at this little girl's pretty face.

Oh, this girl is attracted to him.

Handkerchiefs will be given to him.

Tsk, it's a pity that it's the people around the madam. Since Nagasawa's biological mother passed away, the madam has not allowed him to touch the people around her anymore.

Master Ji felt a little regretful in his heart, but just because he couldn't touch her didn't mean he didn't want to talk about her. Before he left, he didn't forget to say something to the girl: "Master understands your heart, but I can't help it. All I can say is that it's fate. "

Girl: "..."

Seeing Mr. Ji wiping his nose and leaving, not forgetting to hold the flower before leaving, she sneezed in disgust and walked into the house, just in time to see Mrs. Ji standing in front of the window looking at Mr. Ji's background.

The girl's heart tightened.

Madam will not really relent.

"lady?"

Mrs. Ji heard her voice and turned around slowly: "Look at his appearance, he seems to be very affectionate towards me."

She had always been gentle, but now her eyes were full of coldness, and her words seemed to be tinged with coldness.

"It's absolutely disgusting."

****

Ji Changze is also commenting on Mr. Ji's behavior.

"I just found out that other people ignored him when he had no money, so I finally realized that my mother was the best to him, and she would be nice to him even if I didn't need his money. Then I acted like I was hurt when my mother rejected me."

"How do you say that, belated affection is worse than grass."

Ji Changyan sat upright and raised his eyes when he heard this: "Who said this, why have I never heard of it?"

"I don't know where I heard it from. I just heard it anyway, but I think this sentence is still not quite right. What did the grass do wrong? Why should it be shamed? The grass is much better than people, at least the grass can't Doing something as disgusting as my father."

Ji Changyan quietly looked at his younger brother who was eating skewers while beeping. Seeing that the other person didn't pay attention to his gaze at all, but instead ate more and more energetically, he had to remind him:

"Nagaze, I'm still ill and can't eat these."

Ji Changze finished chewing a mutton skewer and threw the skewer aside: "I know, so I just ate it myself."

Ji Changyan: "I can't eat it. Isn't it inhumane for you to eat it in front of me?"

After saying that, he saw his troubled brother suddenly realized, and then he turned his back and continued to chew. While chewing back, he said vaguely as if he had made a deal: "Isn't this much better, brother?"

Ji Changyan let out a long sigh and continued to ask warmly: "You said you wanted to ask me something, what is it?"

"Actually, it's not a big deal. I just want to say that the Hou Mansion seems to be running out of money."

Ji Changze finished the remaining skewers in a few seconds, took out his handkerchief and wiped his mouth, then turned around with a look like "it's a small problem, it's nothing."

"My father has been buying things he likes over the years no matter how expensive they are. Before my grandfather didn't care about him, he would just move the warehouse. Now the Marquis Mansion seems to be okay, but in fact he has lost a lot of money, so I just I want to ask my brother how to deal with this matter."

Ji Changyan nodded: "You want to talk about ways to make money?"

"If you want to make money, the eldest brother will naturally be able to earn it, but after all, the Marquis Mansion will still be my father's in the future. I don't know how many years it will take until it is passed to the eldest brother."

If he killed his father, Mr. Ji would be disgusting, but not to the extent that the two of them would dirty their hands because of him.

Ji Changyan understood his brother's underlying meaning and looked at him with raised eyebrows: "What you mean is, is there any better way?"

Ji Changze had a sinister smile on his face, no, a righteous smile.

He leaned close to his elder brother's ear and whispered a few words.

Ji Changyan's expression gradually changed. When Ji Changze sat back down, he looked at him in surprise.

"Is it really possible?"

Seeing that his first reaction was not that this would absolutely not work, but rather how to do it, Ji Changze praised in his heart.

With Ji Changyan's temperament and talent, if he hadn't been ill for so long, he would have been in a high position long ago.

"Brother, don't worry. Since I brought it up, I'm sure of it."

After Ji Changze's words, Ji Changyan didn't hesitate and nodded happily.

"If it can really be done, then it can be considered as venting anger for my mother."

When the two brothers got together and the younger brother muttered and made a lot of plans, Master Ji had given up on being courteous to Mrs. Ji and instead chose a concubine.

This concubine has a child. I don't know if it is Master Ji's misunderstanding. He always feels that the concubine is not very willing to serve him.

No, it must be an illusion.

How can there be any concubine in the world who is unwilling to serve her husband?

One night passed, Master Ji wandered away. As soon as the concubine left, he hid in the room and started crying. The serving girl looked at the master distressedly and comforted in a low voice: "Auntie, please stop crying. If If my brother finds out, he will definitely feel distressed."

The concubine cried a little softer, but her eyes were full of sadness: "How can I not cry? What does he think of me? Even if I am a concubine, I am still a human being. I gave him a son. If he really If they give me away, I will hang myself to avoid damaging my child’s reputation.”

"Auntie, please stop crying. Didn't the master say that I would give you away? Maybe he won't agree."

"Why not? Did he give Meier and the others away not long ago? Although Meier and the others came from the Flower House, they have always been innocent. He coaxed them to redeem themselves with sweet words, but in the end they were treated as if they were old and yellow. Give it to others, if they knew it would be like this, it would be better to have thousands of people riding on it in the flower house."

At any rate, their appearance was considered a courtesan in the flower house when they were young, and they could save their savings.

Hualou will not hold people hostage until they get old. As long as they give them enough money, they can leave. Then there will be nothing wrong with the money.

It's great now that she has been married to Master Ji as a concubine. Not to mention being a slave and a maid, she has to be transferred to others at will.

They are concubines, but they don't want to be good for several people.

When she thought about the message her family had given her, saying that an adult wanted to bring her over after Master Ji said a few words about her, it was almost certain that the adult was now asking her family about her. Are there any sisters or sisters that you would like to serve together?

If this was placed in someone else's house, my concubine might not believe it.

But who told Mr. Ji to have a criminal record?

He was a person who liked the new and disliked the old. Once the concubine he loved had a new love, he turned into an eyeball. If someone asked for it, he would give it to him easily.

I had a concubine before who gave birth to a daughter. Because Mr. Ji was a big talker and talked to his gang of friends outside about his affair with the concubine, they took it seriously and asked him for it, but he actually wanted it. Give.

If Madam hadn't known about this and stopped her, I'm afraid that the concubine would have had no choice but to hang herself so that her daughter would not be looked down upon in her husband's house.

What can stop this is not that Mr. Ji loves his daughter, but his wife's toughness.

He had a lot of sons and daughters, and when they got too many, he didn't care much about them. Anyway, he didn't interfere with those children when they grew up. It didn't matter to him whether they were living a good life or not.

Thinking of this, the concubine cried harder and harder; "If I am really sent out, what will Brother Fourteen do?"

The girl comforted her for a few words, then suddenly thought of something and held the concubine's hand: "Auntie, let's go find the madam."

"Madam is kind and will definitely not ignore it."

This concubine is timid and usually doesn't dare to get close to Madam Ji. When she heard this, she hesitated: "Does Madam really care?"

"Yes, I will definitely do it. Madam is the daughter of the Zhou family. She is the most upright and polite person. Even if it is for Brother Fourteen, she will keep my aunt."

"Look at Ninth Brother, it's just that my mother has been by Madam's side for a few years, and she has been raised like her own son. Madam is so kind, and Fourteenth Brother also calls Madam Mother. She will definitely do it for Fourteenth Brother. Helping my aunt."

The concubine listened, and she really had hope in her heart.

Everyone in the backyard knew that the master was a fool. If the wife hadn't been taking care of him, they and the concubines would have long ago not known what would have happened to them.

She staggered and let the girl support her to find Mrs. Ji.

When they got to the yard, they heard the girl say that Mrs. Ji wanted to make peace with Mr. Ji.

A bolt from the blue, nothing more than that.

How could they live a good life without their wife's protection?

The concubine simply rolled her eyes and fainted in despair.

When the news came back to the backyard, a lot of people fainted again, and those who didn't faint cried until the sky was dark. In an instant, the entire backyard was covered with heavy weight.

At this time, a girl who was serving Ji Changze quietly gave this aunt an idea because she was somewhat related to one of the aunts.

On this day, when Mrs. Ji took Ji Changze out to buy some jewelry for the child's fiancée, as soon as they left the yard, a dozen concubines who had been guarding them rushed out and knelt down at Mrs. Ji's feet several times, crying. Intestinal rupture:

"Madam! What will we do if you leave!!"

"You, the master, and the slaves don't dare to stop me, but I hope you can take us away too!!"

Mrs. Ji was stunned when she saw several crying beauties in white weakly hugging her thighs, sobbing and begging:

"Please take us away, slaves and maids, we don't want anything else. You just treat us like kittens and puppies, and servant girls, madam!", Lily's free and fastest update, no anti-theft, no anti-theft.
