Chapter 73
A short distance away, the candlelight danced in the gaps that seemed to exist and seemed to disappear, and the surroundings were as quiet and ambiguous.

The man's slightly protruding phoenix eyes were deep, tightly locked on the girl's eyes, and his thin lips touched the girl's lips, slightly cool and soft, and he opened his mouth to swallow it...

"Ah!"

Su Jiu sneezed suddenly, and the man's face was splashed with saliva. She took a step back and complained, "What are you doing so close to me?"

Ji Yuxian, "..."

Taking a deep breath, the man suddenly frowned slightly, "What did Madam have for dinner?"

"I ate a chicken and had two heads of garlic!" Su Jiu said truthfully.

Ji Yuxian stood up abruptly, closed his eyes, took a deep breath, picked up the handkerchief to wipe off the drool on his face, and squeezed out a few words from his thin lips,

"Ma'am, go back and rest!"

"Oh!"

Su Jiu turned and left the desk, turned around and wanted to say something, but seeing the man's face was ugly, she swallowed the words she was about to say, and walked out the door quickly.

After leaving the study, I heard Ji Yuxian's order from a distance,
"Prepare water immediately, I want to take a bath!"

"Pfft!" Su Jiu laughed and left the main courtyard happily.

After a sleepless night, Su Jiu slept until dawn. When she woke up, she opened the window, and a gust of cold wind came blowing in her face. The sky was white, and it actually snowed at night!
The snow is so thick that there seems to be nothing but endless whiteness between the sky and the earth.

The nanny came in with hot water, and seeing Su Jiu standing by the window, she hurried over to close the window, took out a cloak and put it on Su Jiu, and said angrily, "Women should not catch the cold, miss must be careful!"

Su Jiuman didn't care, "We martial arts practitioners are not afraid of the cold at all!"

In previous winters they lived in those three earthen huts, where the wind was blowing from all sides, and the dripping water turned into ice. They didn't even have cotton-padded clothes, so they slept under mats at night, and they were all right.

The nanny wiped Su Jiu's face with a hot towel, her nose was sore, and she asked softly, "Where are Miss's parents?"

Su Jiu shook her head without any expression on her face, "I don't know."

"How much do you remember about your childhood?"

"I don't remember clearly. When I was very young, I begged with a woman surnamed Zhang. Later, she died of illness, and I joined the Fulong Gang."

"Who are your parents and where do you live? Can't you remember anything?"

"Since they don't want me, I still remember what they did?" Su Jiu sneered.

The nanny paused the hand holding the cloth towel, turned around and put it in the hot water for washing, and said softly, "Maybe the lady got lost accidentally, your mother is still looking for you."

Su Jiu didn't know if she heard it, she yelled that she was hungry, and stepped out of the room.

The nanny looked at her back with complicated eyes, and after a long time, she sighed softly.

It was still snowing outside, and Su Jiu just didn't plan to go out these few days. After breakfast, he and Chang Huan watched the stove drinking and playing dice.

In the study room of Izumo Pavilion, Ji Yuxian was checking the recent account book, and turned to the account book of Juxianju on Yong'an Street, frowning slightly,
"Why has the running water decreased so much in recent days?"

Butler Yu stood beside him and explained in a low voice, "The shopkeeper of Juxianju said that there is a new Qingyuan restaurant opposite, and the business is very good. Now the restaurants on the whole street are affected."

Ji Yuxian's phoenix eyes were light, and while flipping through them, he asked casually, "What's the origin?"

"It's not clear yet, I only heard that the master behind the house is called Su Jiuye." Old Yu frowned slightly, "Yesterday, people from Zhu's Wanfu Building went to make trouble inside and were thrown out later."

"Su Jiuye?" Ji Yuxian stopped looking at the account book, and frowned slightly. He didn't know when there was such a number one person in Shengjing City. "This old slave has already sent someone to investigate the details of Master Su Jiu. If you have any news, please come and report to Young Master immediately!" Old Butler Yu said respectfully.

"Ok!"

Ji Yuxian nodded lightly, threw the account books of Juxianju aside, and continued to check other account books.

In Lianbo Garden, Ren Zhi'er was serving Xie Ying to drink medicine with a medicine bowl.

The last time Xie Ying was thrown into the water by Su Jiu, she was caught in the wind and cold, repeatedly, but now she is better, but she is holding a breath in her chest, and her face is terribly pale.

The servant girl Shao Yao came in and said cautiously, "Second Young Madam, the Eldest Young Master just sent someone to deliver a high-quality thousand-year-old ginseng, and told the servant to boil it for the Second Young Madam!"

Xie Ying leaned on the soft pillow, her long hair was loose, and her face was pale. She was overjoyed when she heard the words, and then complained, "Why didn't he come and see me in person?"

Ren Zhi'er quickly comforted her, "The young master has left early and returned late these few days. When he comes back at night, he must be afraid of the cold and give his sister a visit, so he didn't dare to visit her. But the fact that he sent his servants to bring supplements every day shows that he still misses his sister every day. "

Hearing this, Xie Ying's expression eased a little, and she snorted.

Shao Yao bowed her head and stood aside, glanced at Ren Zhi'er, and laughed in a low voice, "The third young lady sent someone to invite the young master to her yard last night, so naturally she knows the young master's whereabouts like the back of the palm of her hand."

As soon as she finished speaking, Ren Zhi'er's face turned pale, and she suddenly raised her head to look at Xie Ying.

Xie Ying stood up with her arms up, staring at Ren Zhi'er firmly, "Did the young master go to your room last night?"

"No!" Ren Zhi'er shrank her shoulders and stepped back, "No, the young master said he was tired."

"Bang!" Xie Ying stretched out her arm and swung the bowl out of Ren Zhi'er's hand, her face was livid, and she cursed angrily, "Bitch, how dare you seduce the young master while I am seriously ill!"

Ren Zhi'er trembled, and immediately fell to her knees under the bed, shaking her head in a panic and said, "My sister dare not!"

"Slut, bitch!" Xie Ying picked up the soft pillow and slapped Ren Zhi'er like crazy.

"Second Young Madam!" Shao Yao rushed over and patted Xie Ying's back, "Don't be so angry!"

"Cough, cough, cough!" Xie Ying bent over and coughed a few times, leaning back heavily.

"Sister!" Ren Zhi'er took two steps forward, stretched out her hand to grab Xie Ying's sleeve, and said in a sobbing voice, "I'm also afraid that the young master will focus on the young lady, and let her be spoiled and arrogant, which will be even more detrimental to my sister. It's for my sister!"

"Bitch, how dare you argue!" Xie Ying raised her hand and picked up Yu Ruyi on her hand and threw it at Ren Zhi'er, gritted her teeth and hissed, "If you dare to climb into the son's bed first, I will tear you apart! "

Ren Zhi'er's forehead was hit, and it immediately swelled up. She knelt on the ground and didn't dare to move, sobbing.

"Second Young Madam, don't be angry!" Shao Yao sat on the edge of the bed and stroked Xie Ying's back.

Xie Ying took a few breaths before her breath gradually stabilized. She looked at the woman kneeling under the bed with cold eyes.

Ever since Ji Yuxian and Su Yuejiu got married, he had never favored any concubine, even if she was sick, he couldn't let Ji Yuxian sleep in someone else's bed first.

This is related to which house the eldest son of the Ji Mansion will be born in in the future, and it is even more related to their future status in the Ji Mansion!
"Okay, get up, I have a headache from crying!" After a while, Xie Yingping took a breath, glanced at the woman, raised her head and stroked her forehead.

"Yes!" Ren Zhi'er wiped her tears and stood up tremblingly.

"You have the skills to seduce the young master, why don't you think about how to deal with Su Yuejiu for me!" Xie Ying said coldly.

The first two times she suffered a big loss at the hands of Su Yuejiu, this time, she can no longer act rashly!

Ren Zhi'er lowered her head and wiped her tears with a silk handkerchief. After a while, she said in a low voice, "Su Yuejiu hurt her sister twice in a row. It seems that she is not weak-tempered as rumored. You and I need to plan carefully!"

Xie Ying nodded, "What's your idea?"

Ren Zhi'er's eyes flickered, she leaned closer to Xie Ying, and said in a low voice, "My sister forgot someone, as long as she appears, Su Yuejiu is nothing in front of you."

"What you said is," Xie Ying looked up.

"Yes, it is Lan Zhihui. If Su Yuejiu hurts her, the young master will never sit idly by."

Xie Ying's eyes were thoughtful, and her face was a little ugly. After all, in Ji Yuxian's heart, none of them could compare to Lan Zhihui.

"Every half a month, Lan Zhihui will come to the mansion to report on the weaving workshop. I have calculated that Ri Lan Zhihui will enter the mansion in the future, and then we can," Ren Zhier whispered in Xie Ying's ear .

After all, Ren Zhi'er smiled coldly, "Even if you can't hurt Su Yuejiu by then, you can still humiliate her and kill her prestige!"

"That's right!" Xie Ying nodded secretly, raised her eyebrows and said, "By the way, I'll invite Miss Shangguan. Since we're going to sing, let's sing more lively!"

Ren Zhier curled her lips into a smile,
"Sister is smart!"
