Chapter 121 My Wife, The Eldest Princess (10)(1/2)
Ji Shan in the portrait is noble and arrogant. Her face has exquisite makeup, and her eyebrows are full of nobility. I wonder what kind of family can raise a proud daughter like Ji Shan.
Ji Mian looked down at the unconscious outsider lying on the ground. After a moment of silence, he said, "Are they sent by your family to look for you?"
This portrait is obviously not what Jishan looks like now, but what she looked like before. Since they have a portrait of Jishan's previous appearance in their hands...
"No," Ji Shan suddenly interrupted Ji Mian's words. She touched the dagger held by the outsider with her foot, "I think if it was really my family who came to find me, they wouldn't be so rough/violent."
He covered her mouth, blinded her and dragged her away, holding a dagger and threatening her. It didn't look like he expected her to continue living, but more like he came to kill her.
Ji Mian also thought of this at this time. She snatched the dagger from the outsider's hand and led Ji Shan away quickly.
There were quite a few people coming this time, and it seemed they were all here to look for Ji Shan. It was better not to expose their whereabouts.
After the two returned home, Ji Mian studied the dagger carefully. It was very ordinary. Apart from being extremely sharp, it did not leave any writing or marks. Anyone who wanted to kill Ji Shan should be very cautious.
They didn't know how long this group of people would be looking for in Xinyang County. After a brief discussion, the two decided that Ji Shan would embroider at home these days and not go to the embroidery workshop to see when the group of people would leave.
It was another day after school. On her way home, Ji Mian noticed that the number of outsiders on the road had changed from three or four to five or six. This discovery made her eyelids jump.
Ji Mian silently quickened her pace and walked towards the alley where they lived. She was surprised to find an out-of-towner pretending to want to rent a house. He knocked on the door of each house and asked the residents if they had any vacant houses for rent. And the man who knocked on the door pretended to want to rent a house.
At this time, the outsider knocked on Ji Mian's courtyard door, and Ji Mian strode over.
"Knock knock, is there anyone there?"
"Brother, why are you knocking on the door?" Ji Mian walked over with a smile and said politely, carrying a bamboo box.
The man who knocked on the door was pretty handsome, but the muscles on his arms wrapped in clothes and the calluses on his fingers revealed the fact that he was not an ordinary citizen.
The man quickly looked up and down Ji Mian's body and said with a smile, "Is this your home? I just wanted to ask if there is any room available for rent. I would like to rent one."
"Oh, that's it. Unfortunately, my originally vacant room has been turned into a study room, so I can't rent it to you. But I can take you to Yaxing to have a look. There are many and cheap houses owned by Yaxing over there."
Ji Mian enthusiastically introduced to the man: "The tooth shop is not far from here. Just go out of this alley, pass three streets and turn left. Remember to keep walking in. The tooth shop in the back is the best. Let's do this.
Anyway, it’s still early, so I’ll take you there and then come back to study.”
The man was stunned for a moment: "I'll go by myself, so I won't bother you anymore. It's more important for you to study."
Ji Mian smiled and waved her hand: "It's okay, I'll take you there."
The man shook his head and raised his hand to refuse: "No, no, I can just go by myself."
Ji Mian nodded, but suddenly said: "This eldest brother is from out of town, right? It's strange recently. It seems that many outsiders come to our Xinyang County. Is there something wrong?"
The man's eyes sank, and he asked Ji Mian with a hypocritical smile: "I did come from the west. What's wrong? There are many outsiders recently?"
Ji Mian picked up the bamboo box and said, "I grew up in Xinyang County after all. I can tell the difference between locals and outsiders as soon as they speak. I was buying preserves just now when I heard two people talking, and their accents were very different from ours.
"
Ji Mian tilted her head and thought for a moment: "Their accents seem to be similar to yours. They are probably all from the west. How come you all came to our Xinyang County?"
The man withdrew his scrutinizing gaze and sighed: "Hey, you are probably talking about my fellow villager. We came out to find the runaway bride at this time. She was going to marry my brother from the same village, but the day before the wedding, Volume 1
He took away all the betrothal gifts and ran away. My brother was so angry that he fell on the bed, so we had to help him find his wife."
The man relaxed a little: "We didn't want to come either, but we heard that someone found a strange and beautiful woman in Xinyang County. We thought she might be the escaped bride, so we came over to have a look."
Ji Mian opened her mouth in surprise, sighed, and patted the man on the shoulder: "Why don't you report to the official? I have the marriage certificate with me, so I should report to the official."
The man was stunned for a moment and shook his head: "Our village all agreed verbally. They originally wanted to hold the wedding before registering it."
Ji Mian: "That's right...but Xinyang County can't keep people here. Anyone who has some potential will go to Fushu Mansion or the provincial capital to work hard. Has this bride already left?"
The man sighed: "I guess so. We have been here in Xinyang County for several days and still haven't found it."
The two chatted at the door for a while, and after the man once again rejected Ji Mian's warm greetings, he left on his own.
Ji Mian looked deeply at the man's leaving figure. She just had to wait and wait for these people to leave. She probably wouldn't stay long.
"Knock knock"
"Madam, I'm back." Ji Mian knocked on the courtyard door and shouted.
“Squeak——” The door opened, and Ji Shan carefully stuck his head out and looked towards the entrance of the alley, “Is that person gone?”
Ji Mian nodded, took Ji Shan's hand, closed the door and walked to the main hall: "Well, let's go."
Ji Shan was led by Ji Mian. He patted his chest as he walked and then said fearfully: "It scared me to death. I was afraid they would break in if I didn't open the door. Fortunately, you came back in time."
The frightened look on Queen Ji Shan's face fell into Ji Mian's eyes, but ripples appeared in her heart. Ji Mian pulled Ji Shan into her arms and held her tightly.
Ji Shan was caught off guard and was pulled into Ji Mian's arms, asking softly: "What's wrong? Were you punished by the teacher in school?"
Ji Mian said nothing.
Ji Shan thought that Ji Mian had been wronged in school, so he put his head on Ji Mian's shoulder and gently patted Ji Mian's back with his palm: "Don't feel bad. If you are tired from studying, take a rest. You can't do it during this period."
You worked hard, I know.”
"Don't push yourself too hard, I know you are great, you-"
"I'm sorry, I don't have the ability to prevent you from showing your face or leaving the door..." Ji Mian blamed herself.
Ji Mian's words surprised Ji Shan: "...No, what does this have to do with you?"
Ji Mian lowered his head: "Yes."
Ji Shan tapped the melon on Ji Mian's head with his finger: "You are stupid because of studying. I wear a mask to hide from people who want to kill me. If I don't go out, I will hide from people who come to look for me. They are all me.
Due to your own reasons, you have protected me very well."
Ji Shan let go of Ji Mian and turned around in front of her: "My hands and feet are sound, I don't have to worry about food and housing, what else are you dissatisfied with?"
Ji Mian looked at Shang Jishan and said seriously: "I will let you live a good life in the future."
Jishan laughed, she finally knew how to defeat Ji Mian.
Ji Shan took a step forward, helped Ji Mian adjust her robe, and said with a smile: "Okay, no matter where you are in the future, no matter your status, I will accompany you and be your wife, okay?"
After Ji Shan finished speaking, he raised his eyes and looked at Ji Mian tenderly, and Ji Mian's heart softened instantly.
"This is what you said, madam, I recognize you."
The word "wife" was accentuated, and the two of them established their relationship simply and unexpectedly, made an agreement, and made an oath.
No matter what the status of either party is in the future, they will never leave each other behind. No matter whether they are rich or poor, they will never be separated.
Sure enough, three days later, under Ji Mian's careful observation, the group of outsiders left, and their lives became calm and stable again.
Ji Shan still went to work in the embroidery workshop to support his family, while Ji Mian was preparing seriously for the exam in school.
"The way to a great university lies in being clear and virtuous, in being close to the people, and in striving for perfection. After knowing the cessation, there will be concentration. After concentration, one can be still. After being quiet, one can be at peace. After being at ease, one can then think about it. After thinking about it, one can gain..."
The classmates were all shaking their heads and reciting "The Great Learning" loudly, while Ji Mian, who was sitting in the corner, pinched the bridge of his nose and looked at the "Laws of the Wei Dynasty" on the desk. The rules in it made Ji Mian's head hurt.
"Ahem..." A dry cough came from behind Ji Mian. Ji Mian turned around and saw that it was Hall Chief Su.
Principal Su tapped Ji Mian's desk with a ruler and said in a serious voice, "You are the only one who doesn't study in the morning. What do you want to do?"
Ji Mian sighed, held up the book of laws and regulations to Director Su, and complained: "While reading, there are some laws and regulations in it that I find difficult to accept."
Why is there such a severe master-slave relationship in same-sex marriages? And the master can marry a concubine, but the slave can only obey?
In Ji Mian's opinion, this nonsense makes no sense. The master is a woman, and the slave is also a woman. Same-sex love is for the sake of falling in love. They gave up having children, giving up the so-called passing on blood, giving up the so-called passing on the family line, but they still remain the same.
Falling into the cage of a severe master-slave relationship.
There is a master and slave in a marriage relationship, but there is no scientific examination. Both the master and the slave can participate in the scientific examination, but many people subconsciously think that only the master can participate in the scientific examination, and the slave cannot.
Bullshit! She just came from Fang, and she still came to study and take the scientific examination.
Tangzhang Su asked: "What is unacceptable?"
Ji Mian: "Heterosexual marriage has always been harsh on women in the relationship between men and women, but now in the so-called same-sex marriage with freedom and equality in marriage, there is a master-slave relationship of unequal status. It is undoubtedly an unfair exchange between men and women.
If you use a name to apply to same-sex marriage, what kind of freedom and equality is this?"
Director Su was silent and looked at Ji Mian, obviously agreeing with her point of view. However, the same-sex married students who came to study were almost always the party in charge of the marriage. Now that Ji Mian had been speaking for Cong Fang, he suddenly felt
The position is in danger.
A student who had always been dissatisfied with Ji Renjian stood up and refuted: "It sounds so nice, but you are not the main party? If you have the ability, you can take your wife to the Marriage Office for divorce and then re-register the marriage. You can choose the party yourself!"
"It's just that it's really hypocritical to take advantage of the owner's benefits and belittle the owner."
"The owner has to work hard to support his family. What's wrong with having more power?"
"..."
Many classmates criticized, refuted, and were dissatisfied with Ji Mian's remarks.
Principal Su slapped his ruler, and just as he was about to scold them for being noisy during class time, he heard Ji Mian's light but thunderous words.
"I just follow Fang."
Class A was silent for a moment, and even Director Su looked at Ji Mian in surprise.
Ji Renjian is from the side, and her lady, who looks as gentle as water, is the main side?
Yang Fangfei, who had not spoken before, was shocked when she heard this. She slapped the table and stood up: "Impossible, how could you Ji Renjian be willing to be a follower!"
Ji Renjian is not willing, but she, Ji Mian, is.
