Jie a husband is too arrogant

Chapter 72 Ambiguous (Part [-])
Xiao Lie looked down at the moist and white emerald jade, the tentacles were warm and carried the body temperature of the girl, he stretched out his hand to pull the girl's arm, and put the jade pendant in her palm, his eyes were faint, his thin lips parted slightly, "Let's put it in your place first!"

Su Jiu raised her eyebrows and asked puzzledly, "Why?"

He chased her several times before to beg for this jade pendant, which should be very important to him, but now that she has returned it, he doesn't want it anymore.

"Well, when I want it, you can return it to me!" The man shot back, his voice was low, "Put it away, don't lose it!"

"That's not for sure, if you put it here, I might just take it someday when I don't have money!" Su Jiu shrugged, half jokingly said.

The man's black eyes were stained with a smile, but he didn't say a word. Even if she wanted to be a pawnshop, no pawn shop in Shengjing City would dare to accept it.

"Come, eat meat!" Su Jiu no longer entangled with Yu's matter, and put her hands in her arms again, holding meat for Xiao Lie with chopsticks.

The soup pot was steaming, and the two of them drank hot wine without feeling cold. They ate until Su Jiu's stomach was full before he put down his chopsticks contentedly.

It was getting late, Xiao Lie got up to say goodbye.

Going downstairs, the guests in the lobby have almost left, only a few wine fighters are still punching.

Su Jiu sent Xiao Lie out, and saw an ebony and vermilion lacquered carriage parked outside the door, low-key but luxurious.

"You, will you be in the store all the time?" Before getting into the carriage, Xiao Lie suddenly turned around and asked.

Su Jiu nodded, "Daylight should always be here!"

Xiao Lie nodded slightly, said no more, turned around and got into the carriage.

Su Jiu stood on the stone steps and watched the carriage go away before returning to the restaurant. Qiao An came up to him and asked, "Who is this man? How did the boss know him?"

His demeanor is graceful and dignified, not like ordinary people.

"The staff of Prince Rui's residence are friends of Nangongshu!" Su Jiu said casually, saving the matter of stealing money in the middle.

"Prince Rui's Mansion..." Qiao An murmured to himself, frowning slightly, the last time Su Jiu entered Prince Rui's Mansion to steal boneless ginseng was probably related to this person, he was just an aide, how could he have such a magnanimity?
Su Jiu sat on the chair, Chang Huan jumped over, poured tea for her, and smiled handsomely, "Boss, I've found out whoever caused the trouble just now!"

"Really?" Su Jiu became interested, put down the wine glass, and asked hastily, "Who is it?"

"After I followed them, I saw them enter the Wanfu Building." Chang Huan replied.

Qiao An sat down beside Su Jiu, and said in a low voice, "Wanfulou is the restaurant of the Zhu family in Shengjing, and it's on this street."

"Zhu family?" Su Jiu's eyes froze slightly.

"Correct!"

The Zhu family is an imperial merchant just like the Ji Mansion, and they are very powerful in Shengjing. They are the largest merchants besides the Ji Mansion. They own countless restaurants and money houses, and Wanfu Lou belongs to the Zhu family.

The shopkeeper of Wanfulou must have seen the booming business of Qingyuan Restaurant, so he was jealous and evil, and sent someone to make trouble on purpose.

And this time they fought, the two families had settled their grievances.

"The second wife of the Ji Mansion is the concubine daughter of the Zhu family, and also the concubine sister of the current head of the Zhu family." Qiao An said calmly, "But as far as I know during this period of time, although the Ji mansion and the Zhu family are obviously married, but The back-and-forth rivalry is fierce."

Su Jiu nodded secretly, if the Ji Mansion and the Zhu Family are in a competitive relationship, then is the second lady facing the Ji Mansion or the Zhu Family?

"The people in Wanfulou didn't get any bargains today, and they might come again in a few days, so everyone should pay more attention!" Su Jiu confessed.

"Don't worry, master!"

Busy until dark, when Su Jiu and Chang Huan went back to Ji's Mansion, the nanny was waiting anxiously at the door, when she saw Su Jiu came back, she hurried forward and said, "Miss, the second lady is here again today, and the lady is not here twice, the second lady is here." Madame has begun to suspect."

"What do you suspect?" Su Jiu asked as he walked.

"Miss doesn't have anyone close to her in Shengjing, but she goes out of the mansion every day. The second lady naturally suspects where Miss is going."

The Su family also has two main families in Shengjing, but the relationship is not close, and they have not seen each other for a long time. The second wife knows a little about the affairs of the Su family, and knows that it is impossible for Su Jiu to visit the main family, so Su Jiu is puzzled What do you do every day when you go out.

Su Jiu slowed down, "What did the second lady say?"

"I didn't say anything, I'm afraid that the second lady will secretly investigate the young lady!" The nanny followed Su Jiu, lowering her voice.

Su Jiu sneered, "Let her check!"

She wants to see what she can find out?
If she is found out to be a bandit, will she be frightened to death!
"Miss has just married into the Ji Mansion, her status is unstable, she still needs to be cautious, don't go out these few days!"

Su Jiu thought for a moment, "Okay, I got it!"

They returned to Qifengyuan, and Madam Fan was waiting at the door. Seeing Su Jiu coming back, she hurriedly said, "Young madam is back, and just now the eldest son sent someone to say that if the young lady returns to the mansion, she will go to the main courtyard."

Su Jiu was startled, could it be that Ji Yuxian is still waiting for her to have dinner?

"I'll go and have a look, you guys go back first!" Su Jiu turned to Nanny and Chang Huan.

"I'll go there with Miss!" Chang Huan immediately followed.

"No need!" Su Jiu said, and strode towards the Izumo Pavilion.

Once inside, Mr. Yu was waiting for her in the yard, leading her to the study, "Young Madam, the eldest son is in the study."

Not eating?

Su Jiu was even more curious about what Ji Yuxian asked her to do.

As night fell, the red lights in the corridor lit up one by one, shining on the girl's black hair like ink, floating like a moonlight.

"Young Madam, please!" Old Yu pushed open the door of his study and stood aside respectfully.

Su Jiu nodded and stepped in.

The candlelight in the study room was warm and yellow, and it was a bit quieter than in the daytime. Ji Yuxian was standing behind the huge golden nanmu desk, holding up a pen and practicing calligraphy. When he heard footsteps, he did not lift his head. coming!"

The man was dressed in red, his face was as bright as jade, and the candlelight engulfed his body with a faint brilliance, which was as enchanting as fire, but it seemed to be isolated from the world, making people unable to get close.

Su Jiu stood a foot away from him, and asked softly, "What do you need from me?"

"Come here!" The man's voice was sweet and melodious like a piano.

Su Jiu took a few steps closer, and saw that the man's handwriting on the paper was like flowing water, which was extremely pleasing to the eye. Of course, she didn't know any of the words on it.

"Help me sharpen the ink!" the man said suddenly.

Grinding ink?

Su Jiu was startled for a while before responding in a low voice, "Oh!"

Walking to the desk, Su Jiu saw the inkstone and grinding block on it, and her heart pounded, how to grind this?
She has sharpened knives, but not ink!

Seeing Su Jiu standing there without moving for a while, Ji Yuxian glanced over, raised his eyebrows and smiled, "What's wrong?"

Su Jiu clenched her fists under her long sleeves, looked up at him calmly, "I, I won't!"

Ji Yuxian seemed to be taken aback for a moment, and looked straight at her, "No?"

"That's right, when I usually write, the servant girl grinds the ink and gives it to me. I haven't grinded it." Su Jiu said nonsense.

Ji Yuxian looked at her meaningfully, didn't know if she believed her or not, so she just nodded and smiled, "Then Madam, let's learn for the sake of my husband!"

After finishing speaking, he added clear water to the inkstone, put the grinding block in Su Jiu's hand, and said softly, "Circular ink."

"Oh!" Su Jiu responded, and took the grinding block to grind it in circles in the inkstone.

"Don't use too much force!" Ji Yuxian glanced lightly.

"The posture should be correct, and the palm and the inkstone should be kept vertical."

"Add more water, not too much!"

The man explained in a low voice while writing. Gradually, Su Jiu's posture of rubbing ink really took on a certain look.

"Ma'am, have you often been out of the house recently?" The man suddenly asked.

Su Jiu paused her hands grinding the ink, and said casually, "Yes, I just came to Shengjing and walked around."

"Alright, Madam will live in Shengjing for a long time in the future, so she really needs to get acquainted with it." Ji Yuxian said casually.

Su Jiu looked at the man's sculpted side face, and became more and more puzzled. Ji Yuxian came to her so late just to grind ink for him?
Doesn't he have a personal maid?
Su Jiu was absent-minded and couldn't control the strength of his hands. The ink block slid off the inkstone, and immediately threw a bunch of ink dots on the rice paper that Ji Yuxian had just written.

Su Jiu took a deep breath, and hurriedly reached out to wipe it off. As a result, the more she wiped the ink, the more dizzy she became, and it gradually became a paste...

Ji Yuxian spent an entire night writing, completely ruined it!
Su Jiu's palms were stained with black ink, and she rubbed against her body. She was so guilty that she didn't dare to look at the man's face, "Sorry!"

Looking at the blurred handwriting, Ji Yuxian took a deep breath, put down the pen, leaned closer to the girl, and said with a smile,
"I'm fascinated by what you think, tell me to my husband!"

The man looked at her with a pair of enchanting eyes, which blocked the candlelight, but it was more captivating than the firelight. Su Jiu couldn't help but took a step back, his eyes flickered, "No."

Ji Yuxian took a step forward, trapped her between his chest and the bookshelf with both arms, bent down, the warm breath brushed against the girl's ear, her voice was sexy and low,

"there is nothing?"

Su Jiu raised her head, and immediately fell into his shining phoenix eyes, her heart skipped a beat, and she forgot what she wanted to say.

Four eyes met, Ji Yuxian lowered his head slightly, his thin lips slid across the girl's cheeks, and slowly approached her pink lips.
