Chapter 220 I am the head of the family
Mrs. Ji Si couldn't help but exclaim: "Why...why...what did our Brother Bin do wrong? They are slandering people."
Li Yong raised his eyes: "Preparing military rations is an important matter for the court. If anyone does not want to cause trouble, the court must strictly handle the case. Therefore, the Ji family should not shelter Ji Yuanbin anymore and hand him over to the yamen as soon as possible to explain the whole matter clearly."
Old Master Ji almost jumped up: "What does this mean? Let's hand over Brother Bin? But Brother Bin is gone..."
Li Yong smiled coldly, his face full of suspicion.
Master Ji Si was cold and he finally understood what Li Yong meant. The court thought they had hidden Brother Bin.
Li Yong picked up the tea with an expressionless face and took a sip: "This will not be of any benefit to Brother Bin. The court has really convicted him. Even if the Ji family hides the criminal, he will also be convicted. The fourth master does not care about the rest of the family, but also thinks about Ji Yuanheng, who has just entered the officialdom."
Old Master Ji couldn't help but tremble all over: "No...no...this kind of thing, let the court investigate it, we don't..."
"The merchant said that after the death of someone, Ji Yuanbin fled on a horse. The merchant also brought back the witness," Li Yong looked at Master Ji Si, "You can go to Shuntian Prefecture and ask."
Mrs. Ji Si murmured and couldn't speak. She looked at Ji Yanran in panic, as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw: "Yanran, please say something for us quickly. How dare we do such a thing? It's really... it's really that your second brother is gone."
Ji Yanran was about to speak, but with a bang, Li Yong threw the tea bowl in his hand heavily on the table, which scared Mrs. Ji Si's face suddenly pale.
Li Yong said coldly: "This matter has nothing to do with Yanran. How could she know what they did? Just like when she was in Taiyuan Prefecture, they ignored it."
Master Ji Si couldn't help swallowing. They ignored Ji Yanran back then because the Li family was also dissatisfied with this marriage. Why did they have to get into trouble? How could they think that Li Yong is protecting Ji Yanran now and have to settle the old accounts with them.
Seeing this, Old Master Ji trembled and said, "There must be a misunderstanding in this."
Li Yong was already impatient: "Anyway, I will not shelter anyone from making mistakes, and even more so for his own family. Everyone should take care of themselves. If something happens in the future, don't blame me for not reminding me."
Before the Ji family could speak, Li Yong stood up and walked to Ji Yanran: "Let's go!"
Ji Yanran looked at Li Yong. Her third master rarely spoke on weekdays. Many times he only gave a look to make people feel appreciated. She didn't find that he was still an eloquent.
Old Master Ji was so angry that he shivered, as if he was back when Ji Chengen was there. He looked arrogant every day. Although he sent a lot of things during the holidays, he was just giving charity proudly. He asked Ji Chengen to take the fourth brother to study, but Ji Chengen said that everyone has different qualifications and should not force them, and insisted that the fourth brother go to do business. In the final analysis, he wanted to suppress them.
They didn't dare to speak at that time, but now it's different. Brother Heng has already entered the government and they will not be humiliated. You must know that Brother Heng is on duty with Lord Zhou in the prince's mansion. Even if Brother Heng comes back, even if Ji Yanran wants to help, they may not appreciate it.
Old Master Ji suddenly screamed, "This is someone who wants to frame us."
Seeing Li Yong and Ji Yanran go out, they seem to turn a deaf ear to his words.
Old Master Ji became even more excited: "What do you want to do?"
Under the light, Ji Yanran's goose yellow dress seemed to be covered with a layer of white color, and looked so glamorous.
She turned her head and smiled slightly, her voice clear: "Don't the old man know very well? He lives in our house and planted our fertile fields. We have been giving alms to you all the time."
The people in the room looked shocked.
Who would have thought that someone would stand in front of them and say such a sentence?
"You actually dare..."
Ji Yanran looked at Mrs. Ji Si: "Auntie Si still remembers what you said to my mother?"
"Sister-in-law, don't worry, we will do our best to take care of Yanran."
This made Mrs. Ji Si furious.
Ji Yanran raised her face and said so many good things when her father entrusted her to the old man and the fourth uncle. In her memory, her father knelt on the ground and asked, her mother's eyes were filled with tears, and her brother kowtowed to the fourth uncle in a regular manner. They just wanted her to be safe.
Ji Yanran's eyes slowly fell on Mr. Ji's face: "Isn't this very fair? Abandoning others will definitely be abandoned in the future.
My second brother hurried to Suzhou to occupy the land, otherwise he would not have sold land without my permission. Now that he is causing trouble, can I still bear it?”
Mrs. Ji Si saw Ji Yanran's lips tilted up as if she showed the kindest smile in the world, just like Ji Chengen and his wife back then, but Ji Yanran said clearly: "No, no more."
Mrs. Ji Si couldn't help but take a breath, and she suddenly felt at a loss.
"This is the Ji family, but it is not your Ji family, but my family's ancestral property. The place we work hard to maintain has nothing to do with you."
Ji Yanran's voice was not loud but it was scary.
Master Ji Si suddenly didn't know the person in front of him. He had known for a long time that Ji Yanran was not a good person, but he didn't expect her to be so... decisive and calm, and her abnormal majesty made people involuntarily scared.
Just like a noble lady who is tall and noble, she is not the one who can only hide her reputation at the cost of her reputation.
"I'll move out from here tomorrow. I have the final say here. I'm the family."
After the girl said something, she walked out calmly, leaving darkness behind her.
Old Master Ji screamed: "Don't regret it. Who will help you in the future... You... I won't leave... This is my home, and it's you who should leave..."
As soon as Mr. Ji finished speaking, he heard the doorman come and say, "Mr., there are many people coming to the house. It's my aunt who asked them to come in."
This is really going to drive them out.
They could not fight with Ji Yanran in the Ji family, and they would not be able to survive after the news came out.
"I want to go to the clan," said Mr. Ji, "I want to ask the clan leader to come forward to punish her. How dare she put down the wrongdoing at this time."
Master Ji Si had a bad premonition, but Ji Yanran would really do this.
...
The carriage was parked at the Li family, and Ji Yanran asked someone to help her walk down.
There are only a few lights illuminating the road ahead in the darkness, just like when she came here, everything had to be explored and moved forward. She didn't know where the road ahead was, and she didn't know how far she would go.
No, it’s not just her, but everyone is the case.
Not far away, he stretched out a hand and firmly grabbed her.
The temperature in her palm made her feel unprecedented peace.
The years are peaceful and the world is stable, perhaps this is how it is.
In modern times, she is an orphan who never thought about getting these things. Everything has changed after she came here. Should she change her mind?
