Ji's house is located at the corner of Lihua Lane. The gold-lacquered plaque and vermilion door all indicate the extraordinary status of the Ji family.
Mrs. Ji has two sons and one daughter, her legitimate daughter Ji Mengxian, her eldest son Ji Donglin, and her second son Ji Boping. Both of them are now officials in the imperial court and have considerable power. The Ji family has many branches, but they do not live in the Ji family.
In the house, people live in other houses.
Ji Mengxian married in Linyang, had only one son and a daughter, and had never been to the capital. Now Liu Yun returned to the capital for the first time.
Ji Donglin has a wife and a concubine, and has two sons. Ji Yinxiu is his second son. His eldest son is very promising. He is now the same age as Dongfang Ye and is considered the most promising among his peers.
Ji Boping's first wife passed away a few years ago and never renewed her marriage. She has two concubines and a son and two daughters. The son works as an errand in the Ministry of Household Affairs, and the two daughters are a few years older than Liu Yun.
When Liu Yun arrived at Ji's house, it was time to prepare dinner. She and Dongfang Ye walked into the main hall. Everyone had already returned home and were chatting in the front hall. When they saw them coming in, they stopped talking and turned to look at them.
"Liu Yun, please send your greetings to my grandmother, uncle, and uncle." Liu Yun looked around at everyone and said his blessing slightly.
"Old Madam, Master Ji, everything is well." Dongfang Ye supported her and nodded slightly at the crowd.
The two people who faced each other like a golden boy and a beautiful girl made everyone think a little more deeply.
"Is this girl Liuyun? Come to grandma and let her take a good look." Mrs. Ji waved towards Liuyun, and her words were a little more affectionate than usual.
She used to love her legitimate daughter Mengxian very much, but later she married to Linyang City and broke her mother's heart. The mother and daughter separated from each other and became angry until many things happened and Ji Mengxian passed away.
After that, she tried her best to put pressure on Mu Mansion and not allow them to renew their relationship, just for the sake of Liu Yun and Yu Chen. Although her daughter did not marry as she wished, the child was innocent after all.
"Grandma..." Liu Yun smiled affectionately, putting on an innocent and harmless look, like a well-protected girl. Although her belly was slightly protruding, her face was still young and beautiful.
"The girl is really similar to your mother. Looking at her coquettish and pretty look, she looks exactly like Mengxian back then..." Speaking of her beloved daughter, the old lady seemed a little sad, but she immediately put it away.
Feeling sad, he looked at Liu Yun and kept nodding, "Your mother taught you well, very well."
The old lady has been a good person all her life, and she can see the intelligence in Liuyun's eyes at a glance. This girl is not showy, she is obviously a girl who knows how to measure, and she is really not the same as the two eldest ladies in the family who are loved to no end.
Along the way, I couldn't help but feel sad when I thought of my daughter who died young.
"My mother always talked about my grandmother before she was alive, and she was worried about my grandmother's health." Liu Yun giggled coquettishly, and now she is getting better at playing the role of an innocent girl.
"Yes, your mother was the most well-behaved when she was at home." The old lady sighed. Although so many years had passed, the original incident still seemed like yesterday. Her daughter's stubborn persistence,
Even facing death is still vivid in my mind.
Seeing the sadness on the old lady's face, Liu Yun quickly hugged the old lady affectionately and said, "Yun'er has always wanted to come to the capital to see her grandmother."
The grandfather and grandson were whispering as if no one was around. After a while, the old lady was amused by Liu Yun and couldn't stop smiling. Everyone on the side felt it was amazing. The old lady's status in the Ji family was always calm and serious, and she rarely showed her emotions like this.
, it has always been rare to see my granddaughter, and I feel happy.
"How is the little Marquis doing? I haven't seen you in court these past few days. I heard that the emperor has promised that you don't have to go to court?" Ji Donglin is the head of the Ji family. His brows are stern, but he doesn't care about his juniors.
A slightly more ferocious look appeared.
"Uncle, just call me Ah Ye. Today I just accompanied Yun'er back to my grandmother's house to visit relatives." The implication is that there are no official matters at home. He is not a cabinet bachelor now, but he is just accompanying his wife to visit relatives.
Just my husband.
"Okay, Ah Ye..." Ji Donglin is also a smart man. Seeing his faint smile, he naturally understood what he meant and said to him, "Liu Yun is lucky to marry you."
Originally it was just a compliment, but Dongfang Ye replied extremely seriously: "No, it's my blessing."
For him, being able to marry Liu Yun is really the greatest blessing in his life.
Seeing his serious answer made Ji Donglin look at him a few more times. He had always heard that the eldest son of the Dongfang family had a cold and silent personality, but now it seemed that he had true feelings for Liu Yun. He suddenly thought of his sister Ji Mengxian.
That girl is also so stupid that she married Linyang far away. There are many things that others don't know, so how can he, the eldest brother, not know it? But many times, everyone has their own helplessness, and even if they know many things, they can only treat them as nothing.
I don't know.
"The Emperor has always praised the young Marquis for his graceful demeanor and open-mindedness. Now it seems that it is true." The words were obviously a compliment, but to Ji Boping, they had a bit more weird meaning.
"Your Majesty is so complimentary." Dongfang Ye's modesty was just right, and his smile was also very appropriate.
After all, they are children of aristocratic families. Although Lord Dongfang has left the capital, all three of his sons are outstanding. Needless to say, Dongfang Lin is outstanding. Everyone in the court can see his excellence. At a young age, he was firmly seated as Minister of the Ministry of Industry.
throne, in addition to the influence left by the Dongfang family in the imperial court, his own abilities cannot be underestimated.
As for this eldest son, he has always been a legendary figure in the capital. Not only is he highly praised by the emperor, but his reputation in the military camp is very incredible. Originally, the emperor handed over the military power of Prince An to Dongfang Ye.
Everyone thought that it would cause resistance from the soldiers in the military camp. Who knew that instead of resisting, those soldiers seemed to accept it happily? It really made people wonder what the ability of this sickly young master could subdue people.
.
As for the third son of the Dongfang family, he has managed the Dongfang family's industry with great success. Who knows that if it weren't for the Dongfang family's wealth, Dongfang Lin, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, would have been pulled down from his position long ago. How could he be the minister of the Ministry of Industry now?
location.
Therefore, the three young masters of the Dongfang family are all very capable. Although Lord Dongfang has left the capital, everyone has always been somewhat afraid of the Dongfang family, even the Ji family, which is now at the height of its power.
"Okay, okay, stop standing and go to the dining room to eat." The old lady took Liu Yun's hand and said affectionately, "After dinner, let Yuntian take you to the courtyard where your mother lived. Although it is empty,
It has been there for more than 20 years, but it will be repaired in a few years, and people will always take care of it. If you rarely come back, just live there."
Living in her mother's yard? A strange light flashed in Liu Yun's eyes, she had exactly what she wanted.
As for the complicated expressions on everyone's face at this time, they all fell into the eyes of Liu Yun who swept them away.
