Chapter 158
Marshal Du went to the southwest and was on his way home. Mrs. Du was alone in the Du Mansion, and she was really bored for a long time.

Seeing Ji Ziqi, I was very happy.

Originally, she was worried that after the incident in the palace, the marriage would change.

But when the son came back, he didn't say anything, only that Ji Ziqi would come to visit in two days.

That seems to mean business as usual.

Madam Du let go of the big stone in her heart.

She didn't know what Ji Ziqi had encountered in the palace, but her son didn't care about it, so she pretended not to know anything.

Holding Ji Ziqi's hand with a smile, asking for warmth, and kept hinting that the wedding date should be set.

Ji Ziqi nodded with a smile.

Du Feng, who came out of the palace early, couldn't wait to go back to Du's mansion.

I was pestered by that little one yesterday, and I didn't even have time to have a proper talk with his Qi Qi.

It's rare that I'm free today, so I must have some love, um, just talk.

"Mom, I'm back!"

Before the person arrived, the voice had already sounded.

This son!Madam Du couldn't help but rolled her eyes secretly, then reached out and pushed Ji Ziqi, "Go!"

Ji Ziqi's face became hot, he got up and saluted, and said "yes" in a low voice.

She stood up and took a few steps when Du Feng rushed to the door. Seeing Ji Ziqi getting up towards him, he grinned and said, "Qiqi, you're here!"

Ji Ziqi rolled his eyes at him with a coquettish look, which made Du Feng even more envious.

"Mother, I'll take Qiqi around, and I'll come over to have dinner with you again during lunch."

"Go, go!" Madam Du pretended to be impatient and waved to the two of them.

Du Feng got the order, grabbed Ji Ziqi's hand, and led her to his room.

He took out something from his bosom, "Qiqi, your birthday present!"

The thing was wrapped in a piece of cloth, it was thin and long, and it was impossible to guess what it was.

Ji Ziqi remembered the birthday gift Du Feng gave her on Xueye's birthday last year, and he was a little afraid to accept it.

Who knows if this fellow will send some strange things unexpectedly?

"What is it?" she asked without reaching out.

"See for yourself!"

"Could it be something strange again?" Ji Ziqi raised his head and looked into his eyes.

"Guess what?"

"It's so mysterious!" Ji Ziqi muttered in a low voice, and took the object.

Taking it with some apprehension, he slowly opened the layers of wrapped brocade cloth, revealing the true content of the object inside.

It was a hairpin with a small pearl inlaid on its head. Its shape was not very special, nor was its workmanship exquisite.

She looked at him suspiciously.

Du Feng raised his chin slightly and said, "Try pressing that pearl hard."

Ji Ziqi pressed down on the pearl on the head of the hairpin as he said, only to hear a soft pop, and a long needle about the length of his index finger appeared on the head of the hairpin.

Ji Ziqi exclaimed.

Du Feng kissed the top of her hair lightly, "This is specially made for your self-defense."

"Well," Ji Ziqi's nose was a little sour, and he responded softly, "What happened before scared you!"

"It's not just frightened, it's almost frightened!" Du Feng couldn't help gnashing his teeth in his tone.

"When I think about how dare you hide it from me, I want to spank your ass hard!"

Ji Ziqi leaned up to kiss his neck lightly, and said softly, "Du Feng, no matter what happens in the future, I will never hide it from you!"

"That's a deal! Don't hide anything from me in the future!" Du Feng hugged her tightly, stared into her eyes and promised, "I won't hide anything from you either!"

"En." Ji Ziqi met his eyes and nodded solemnly.

After a while.

"Period."

"Ok?"

A faint voice came from above the head: "You haven't given me a birthday present yet."

"Well," Ji Ziqi buried his face in his chest and muffled, "Your birthday is April [-]th, why don't we get married on your birthday next year?"

Du Feng seemed to be woken up, let go of Ji Ziqi, stared at her smiling face, and dared not say anything: "Next year? April [-]? Get married?"

Ji Ziqi's eyes were gentle, the corners of his lips curled up, and he hummed lightly, and a hint of cunning appeared in his clever eyes, "If you think it's too early, you can push back the date of marriage."

Du Feng glared at her hard, "Who thinks it's too early?"

Ji Ziqi smiled and begged for mercy, "No, then it's settled, April [-]th next year."

"Can't it be earlier?" Du Feng complained.

"Don't get too close! It's November now, and you have to prepare a dowry. Don't you want me to marry into Du's mansion alone like this!" Ji Ziqi glared at him.

Du Feng looked into her eyes and said affectionately, "You alone are worth ten million taels of gold!"

Ji Ziqi glared at him coquettishly, and couldn't help but smile.

"Then, what about giving birth?" Du Feng was a little worried when he thought of the danger of giving birth to a woman too young.

Ji Ziqi lowered his eyes slightly, and murmured, "If you can bear it, then wait a few more months."

She took a peek at his expression and quickly lowered her eyes, her voice became lower and lower, "If you can't help it, then do whatever you want."

Du Feng looked at her like a pitiful little daughter-in-law at the mercy of others, he was angry, funny, and distressed.

"Then it depends on whether the lady can serve her husband well. If she is satisfied with her husband, I will let you go!"

Ji Ziqi immediately put on a bright smile, and kissed him resonantly on the lips, "Sister-in-law is so kind!"

Du Feng pressed a kiss on her forehead, "Qiqi, I will definitely protect you from now on and prevent you from being hurt any more."

"En." Ji Ziqi replied softly, and at the same time secretly said in his heart, Du Feng, let's work together to become a capable person who makes everyone afraid to move casually and fear.

After the young couple shared their heart and soul together for a nap, Du Kang's voice sounded outside the door, "Master, Miss Ji, it's time for lunch."

Both of them opened their eyes together.

Du Feng was originally worried about whether Ji Ziqi would be a little embarrassed because Du Kang knew she was in his room, but he saw that she had a gentle smile on her face, nothing unusual.

After setting the wedding date, Ji Ziqi has completely let go.

Anyway, in a few months, they will see the two of them getting up and lying together, and now it's just a matter of letting people get used to it.

"Brother Du Kang, long time no see!" After going out, Ji Ziqi greeted Du Kang with a smile when he saw Du Kang standing at the door.

On the contrary, Du Kang was young, a little embarrassed, "Miss Ji, from now on, just call the little Du Kang."

"Du Kang." Ji Ziqi softly called out.

From the time when they were in Tianshun, the friendship they established in the cold sky knew that it would dissipate due to the change of status.

Although he felt a little sad now, Ji Ziqi calmly accepted it.

During lunch, Du Feng told Mrs. Du about the wedding date, "Mother, Qiqi and I decided to get married on April [-] next year, my birthday! The next thing will be troublesome mother."

"What?" Mrs. Du, who had been looking forward to this day for a long time, was so surprised when she heard the good news that she even dropped the chopsticks in her hand.

The servants who were waiting on the side quickly took a pair of clean ones and brought them up.

"April next year? Okay!" Madam Du smiled when she realized it, and then complained a little, "You two children are really serious, how can you decide the wedding date on your own?

You have to find someone to live with you!What if there is a bad day on April [-]th? "

"Auntie!" Ji Ziqi continued with a smile, "The day Du Feng was born must be a good day!"

"Oh, you girl, you can really talk." Madam Du thought that she would soon be able to hug her big fat grandson, and she was so happy from ear to ear, "My mother-in-law also agrees?"

"Aniang only said that she hoped to set a wedding date quickly, and the specific date was just discussed with Du Feng." Ji Ziqi said.

Du Feng on the side lowered his hand and gently pinched her, little girl, how could you discuss with him?Obviously you proposed it on your own initiative.

Ji Ziqi was a little itchy, couldn't help twisting a bit, and glanced at him out of the corner of his eye: If you don't agree, change the date.

Du Feng withdrew his hand angrily.

Although Mrs. Du didn't look sideways, the two of them secretly concealed their small actions from her. She thought in her heart that it was time to get married soon.

With the love and stickiness of these two people, maybe they will have a grandson after the Chinese New Year.

The more Du Fu thought about it, the happier he became, "Ziqi, tell your mother-in-law when you go back today, and my aunt has no objections.

However, on which day in April, my aunt still wanted to let someone take a look at it, otherwise the aunt would feel uneasy. "

Ji Ziqi responded obediently: "Okay, Auntie, I will do as you wish."

Du Feng watched the future mother-in-law and daughter-in-law chatting, feeling extremely happy.

I heard from the seniors in the army that the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is the most difficult to deal with. Once there is a quarrel, the husband and son will suffer.

If you help the old lady, you are preparing that your daughter-in-law will not have a good face for a few months, and even worse, you will not even be allowed to enter the door.

After helping the daughter-in-law, the old lady cried and shouted that it is useless to raise children!
If both sides do not help each other, it will be even more serious, the old lady and daughter-in-law will join forces to punish you to death!
In short, both left and right are wrong!
But now it seems that he should not have such worries in the future.

After returning to Jiang's mansion, Ji Ziqi told Jiang Ling about the engagement date with Du Feng.

"April [-], so fast?" Jiang Ling exclaimed, and immediately thought of the most practical question, "Where is the dowry in time?"

Ji Zi didn't care about it when his term expired, "Mother, the Du family doesn't care about this anyway, I also have private money. It's fine to just bring the money over there!"

Jiang Ling got angry, and reached out her hand to touch her forehead, "You damn girl! Did you talk like that? What do you mean by directly carrying money? Is there any family that only carries money when marrying a daughter?"

"Mother!" Ji Ziqi, who hadn't been affected by Jiang Ling's anger for a long time, was a little stunned.

"I didn't want to marry before, but now I'm fine. As soon as I say I want to marry, I wish I could become someone else's right away!" Jiang Lingqi didn't come anywhere, and if he had chicken feathers at hand, he might just slap his upper body.

Ji Ziqi was dumbfounded, "Mother, didn't you say to set the wedding date as soon as possible?"

"Niang Rang set the wedding date as soon as possible. She didn't say that she wanted you to marry as soon as possible. It will happen in August and September. Why did you make it in such a hurry and set it in April?" Jiang Ling said angrily.

"Mother, April [-]th is Du Feng's birthday. I thought I had never given him a birthday gift, so I made it on that day." Ji Ziqi looked at Jiang Ling eagerly, with a bit of pitifulness:
"Mother, I've already made an agreement with Aunt Du, so what should I do?"

"What else can I do?" Jiang Ling gave her an angry look, "Get ready for the dowry!"

Then he still got angry and said: "These days, stay at home more honestly, and help mother prepare the dowry!"

"Yes, mother!" Ji Ziqi hugged Jiang Ling's arm, raised his face and said coquettishly, "I still love my daughter the most! I will go to the Sorcerer Association in the future, and my daughter will definitely come back sooner."

"You, you," Jiang Ling tapped her forehead again, "I've always been the most obedient and avoid causing trouble, but once I come here, I will give mother a big trouble!
Mom, it's better to say, your father will probably spend a long time coaxing him again!

Spend more time with your father these days, and meet Du Feng less, so that your father can feel more at ease. "

"En." Ji Ziqi nodded obediently.

-

A day later, Ji Ziqi went to the Artisan Association.

Although the danger is gone, Du Feng is worried that there will be a remnant party who will not give up, so he still sends Du Le to her.

The two had entered the stage of preparing for marriage, so Du Le changed his words directly and called the young lady.

The Magician Association is as usual, but it can be clearly felt that the atmosphere has become much better.

Many people who had objections to her before, when they saw her now, they all actively nodded their heads.

Ji Ziqi also smiled back one by one.

Ye Yueha also came back last month, and learned a lot from Gu Fuzi about what happened in the past few months.

Although Gu Fuzi did not clearly explain the reason why the queen kept Ji Ziqi in the palace after she called her into the palace.

But although Ye Yueha has an upright and straightforward personality, he has been married and has a child, and he is not ignorant of this matter between men and women.

So when he saw Ji Ziqi, he didn't mention anything about the imperial palace with a wink. Instead, he regretted that he had never been to the now-sealed Linxianju.

"Junior Sister Ji, is Linxianju really as good as the rumors in the market? Is Qin Niang really so charming?"

Ji Ziqi said: "Uh, Brother Ye, you can ask Brother Tian and others about this question! It's not easy for my sister to answer you!"

Ye Yueha was a little sluggish, "I just heard from Senior Brother Tian and others. And the number game, I heard it is very delicate!

Senior brother is so sorry, I should have come back sooner! "

Is it really okay to keep talking about Linxianju to a person who escaped from Qin Niang's sword not long ago?

Three black lines appeared on Ji Ziqi's forehead, and he changed the subject, "Brother Ye, it's already this hour, why are you still here, and didn't go to Wuya Hall?"

"I heard that Junior Sister Ji is coming today, Senior Brother is waiting for you here." Ye Yueha said.

Ji Ziqi was a little moved, "Senior Brother Naye, let's go together!"

The two bid farewell to Master Gu and went to Wuya Hall together.

Tian Li and the others in Wuya Hall had waited so long that their necks grew long. When they saw Ji Ziqi's figure, they immediately stood up and shouted excitedly, "Junior Sister Ji is here!"

Before Ji Ziqi entered the door, he was frightened by a group of people swarming over.

A few people who had ridiculed her before spoke first, "Junior Sister Ji, in the past, senior brother was ignorant, deceived by others, and wrongly blamed Junior Sister, please don't be offended!"

"Junior Sister Ji, you don't care about villains, don't be as knowledgeable as our senior brothers!"

"Junior Sister Ji, thanks to the questions you gave last time, the senior brother got a lower grade in the exam and kept his qualification certificate as a first-class art student."

A group of people spoke one sentence at a time, which made Ji Ziqi dizzy.

After everyone finished talking and stood aside obediently and orderly, Tian Li waved his hands, "Let's all go away!"

The group of people retreated and returned to their positions.

Ji Ziqi was dumbfounded, and asked softly, "Senior Brother Tian, ​​what's going on?"

Tian Li smiled cunningly, and said in a low voice: "Didn't you bet with them last time that our brothers and sisters would get top grades in the exam?
Later, when the results of the qualifying examination came out in September, it was indeed a top grade.

In addition, Chairman Mei and the group of people who spread rumors were also arrested at that time, and these people became honest one by one.

But Junior Sister Ji has been wronged, how can we brothers and sisters get over it so easily?
So after the results came out, I told those people that I must apologize when my junior sister comes!
Otherwise, our brothers and sisters will fight with them!The best grades of that group of people are only A, and they know that they are not as good as our senior brothers.

And several of them kept their current grade certificates, and it was all because of you secretly listening to them a few times when you explained to us before that they got their current grades.

No, there is just what happened. "

Ji Ziqi secretly extended his thumb and winked at him, "Brother Tian, ​​you are amazing!"

Tian Li laughed triumphantly, "Of course!"

While talking, Rong Ruo came to report that a man named Yang Gong in the ancient school was looking for Ji Ziqi, and Master Gu asked him to call her over.

Because of an accident in Fan's residence, Fan Tong joined the Future Sorcerer's Association for a few days, and Master Gu didn't find anyone else, he just told Fan Tong that he would come back after he settled down.

So now all the errands are done by Rong Ruo.

Yang Gong?Palm beads?How could she come out to find her?
"Junior Sister Ji, if you have something to do, you should do it first. Senior brother won't bother you. Let's get together again after you finish your work." Tian Li said: "This time senior brother found another good place, next time I'll take you to see it!"

again?Ji Ziqi thought of Qin Niang's vicious sword stabbing at her, and Li Yuan's unwilling face, so he laughed, not daring to respond.

Zhangzhu dressed up as a man, because he was in the middle of the capital, he didn't deliberately hide it, and when he came to the Artisan Association to report his name, Gu Fuzi received the Gu Xuetang himself.

When he went to Southern Qin earlier, Zhangzhu used Yang Gong's name, so Master Gu knew it immediately.

"Master, you're welcome. I'm Yang Gong, the younger brother of your student Yang Cheng. Please sit down and talk."

Uncovered palm beads can hardly hide their beauty, making the simple ancient school brighten up.

Rong Ruo looked a little dumbfounded.

Because Zhang Zhu didn't reveal the identity of the princess, Rong Ruo didn't know.

Seeing Rong Ruo's stunned look, Master Gu was afraid that he would make a fool of himself, and that he would accidentally bump into Feng Yan, so he dismissed him and asked him to find Ji Ziqi.

No one was present, so Master Gu directly called Zhang Zhu by the title, "Princess, you have a noble status, I dare not go to Tan Yue! Just answer standing up."

Because of Ji Ziqi being imprisoned in the palace for more than two months, Gu Fuzi also felt some resentment towards the royal family in his heart.

Especially that person is still his nominal student.

Just like Ji Ziqi's previous understanding of the royal family, Gu Fuzi also gained a deeper understanding of the royal family through this incident.

If in the past, Zhang Zhu said so, he might have given up.

Now because of this dissatisfaction and recognition, Gu Fuzi decided that it is better to abide by etiquette.

When Ji Ziqi came to the ancient school, he saw Zhang Zhu dressed as a man while sitting and drinking tea, and Gu Fuzi standing with his hands down.

"Zi Qi!" Seeing her, Zhang Zhu put down the teacup in his hand and called out with a smile.

"Minister Ji Xiaoxue has seen the princess!" Ji Ziqi was about to salute, but Zhang Zhu reached out to stop her, "I am Yang Gong today."

Ji Ziqi complained silently in his heart, you are sometimes princesses and Yang Gong, and princes and Yang Cheng, I am really tired of playing with you.

"Princess, are you looking for a girl today?" Ji Ziqi asked with a decent smile.

The just right smile still couldn't conceal the alienation and strangeness in the words, and he was stunned.

That's right, Brother Huang imprisoned her for so long, forbidding her to see anyone, and not allowing anyone to see her, even if she wanted to.

The father, the queen, and the queen did not speak out to persuade her, so it is no wonder that she has complaints in her heart.

"Ziqi, I came to see you today because I want to hear your opinion on something." Zhang Zhu glanced at Gu Fuzi who was standing beside him.

Gu Fuzi immediately said: "Princess, Xiaoxue, please talk slowly, the old man will leave."

"Ziqi, sit down and talk." Zhang Zhu turned his eyes to the stool beside her.

"Yes, princess." Ji Ziqi Shi Shi sat down.

She will not make herself uncomfortable like Master Gu.Since the princess ordered her to sit, she naturally had to obey.

Ji Ziqi's attitude was obviously alienated, and Zhang Zhu stopped exchanging pleasantries, and went straight to the topic: "When I invited you into the palace before, do you remember what you said?"

Ji Ziqi nodded slightly, and said, "Minister, remember!"

Zhang Zhu said: "I once relayed these words to my father, and he was very happy to hear that, saying that with you, the Li country can prosper for at least another 50 years.

Perhaps it was precisely because of those words, when the emperor asked that if you marry you as the imperial concubine, the next generation of children must be excellent, and the Li country can at least prosper for more than a hundred years.

The emperor's father was tempted for a moment, and he acquiesced to the emperor's brother to approach you as Yang Cheng.

Then, because the emperor brother blocked a sword for you and was seriously injured, the father, the queen mother felt sorry for the emperor brother, knowing that his behavior was wrong, she still acquiesced. "

Ji Ziqi smiled and said, "The princess came here today just to say that?"

Zhang Zhu watched her facial expression carefully, "This is just one of them, I think I need to explain to you, the whole story of the attitude of the father, the queen and the queen on this matter."

"I understand, princess, please continue!" Ji Ziqi's expression remained unchanged.

Zhang Zhu was a little stunned, but what she said just now meant an apology.

The queen mother said that the whole world belongs to the royal family, how can the royal family make mistakes?

It's not easy for her to say this, but Ji Ziqi's expression is still so normal?
Ji Ziqi looked back at her with a smile, without making a sound, but the expression in his eyes seemed to be covered with a thick layer of fog, but Zhang Zhu couldn't see clearly.

"Ziqi..." She couldn't help calling softly.

Ji Ziqi still kept the smile he had just now, and said with a smile: "The daughter of the people is here, please tell me, princess!"

Zhangzhu suddenly didn't know what to do, what should I say next?Will she also refuse her request like Lord Lin refused her father?
Ji Ziqi waited quietly for her to speak.

Zhangzhu hesitated for a moment, but finally said, "Three days ago, Emperor Father asked Mr. Lin to invite you to the Ministry of Accounts to help enrich the national treasury.

Lord Lin refused, on the grounds that you just went home and needed to recuperate for a few days; this morning, the emperor made the request again, and Lord Lin refused again.

The reason this time is that your wedding date with him has been fixed, and time is running out, so you need to concentrate on preparing the dowry!
Father feels somewhat ashamed of you, Master Lin's reasons are also reasonable, so he dare not push too much.

In desperation, let me talk to you and listen to your thoughts. "

Ji Ziqi lowered his eyes and asked, "What does the princess want to hear?"

Zhang Zhu said: "Naturally, it is whether you are willing to go to the Ministry of Households to promote your idea of ​​economic development!"

Ji Ziqi replied: "If Your Majesty has an order, women dare not disobey!"

"It's that simple?" Zhang Zhu seemed a little unbelievable, "If the emperor gives the order, will you really try your best to follow it?"

"Princess, as a citizen of the Li Kingdom, a civilian girl has an obligation to benefit the people of the Li Kingdom." Ji Ziqi smiled and looked at Zhang Zhu.

why not?What she wants to do is not to be loyal to the royal family, but to be responsible to the people.

why not?Only when she becomes stronger and her influence becomes stronger can she protect herself and her family.

Not only is she going, but she has to do better!

Ji Ziqi continued: "Princess, please rest assured, Minnv will clarify her determination with Master Lin tomorrow!"

Zhang Zhu asked in a daze: "Then what about your marriage? I heard that it is tentatively scheduled for April, and the time is really tight!"

"Thank you, Princess, for your concern! Marriage is handled by the elders in the family, women know the importance, and will not lose the big because of the small!" Ji Ziqi respectfully said.

Is it too small to lose the big?So, which one is small and which one is big?

"So, congratulations first!" Zhang Zhu looked at her silently for a long time, "Father has agreed to allow me to work with you to advance the plan of economic development.

I have temporarily moved out of the palace and moved into the Princess Mansion. If anything happens, you can send someone to the Princess Mansion to inform me.

I will make arrangements, and all information about looking for Yang Gong will be conveyed as soon as possible. "

"Yes, princess!" After finishing speaking, Ji Ziqi stood up, saluted and presented the palm beads respectfully.

Zhang Zhu quietly looked at Ji Ziqi, who lowered his head and looked down, feeling no joy or anger but alienation, got up and left for a while.

In Jiang's mansion, Ji Zhongchun was still angry, deeply feeling that his dignity as the head of the family had been hurt, and his mood as a father had been hit.

He failed to be lord in matters of engagement.

Regarding the matter of marriage, he also failed to be the Lord, and he was the last to know.

He is not stupid, he knows the reason why his daughter hastily set the wedding date.

But none of this can stop him, as a father, from feeling sad when he sees his daughter who has been pampered so carefully and is about to become another man's bride.

And as the head of the family, he was the last to know the grief.

Ji Zhongchun lay listlessly on the bed all day, not even going to the shop.

No matter how Jiang Ling coaxed him, he just refused to get up.

Jiang Ling was annoyed and funny, "Brother Chun, the marriage date of girls here has always been agreed upon by both parents-in-law and mother-in-law.

Which man in charge would intervene in this matter?It's all settled before telling the man in charge, what kind of sulking are you doing? "

Ji Zhongchun still turned his body sideways and ignored her.

Jiang Ling looked at his generous back with a slightly lonely expression, suddenly felt a little sad, and said softly: "Brother Chun, I know you don't want to part with Xiaoxue, so how can I part with it in my heart?
But when the daughter grows up, she has to get married. Could it be possible to stay at home and raise her for the rest of her life?If you feel so uncomfortable, Xiaoxue will feel uncomfortable too!

As parents, we cannot be the backing of our children, nor can we hinder them!

Let go of your hands happily and watch her be happy and have children. This is the best gift we as parents can give to our children! "

Ji Zhongchun didn't understand, but he still felt very uncomfortable.

The two have been husband and wife for many years, how could Jiang Ling not know what he was thinking, sighed, stood up and said: "Brother Chun, you should take a good rest today.

After Xiaoxue comes back later, don't be like this, ah.I'll go out first to see how dinner is getting ready. "

After Ji Ziqi came back early, he heard Jiang Ling talk about Ji Zhongchun's situation, so he went to the kitchen first, planning to cook a lotus seed soup before going to coax her father at night.

I have to talk to Jiang Ling about the dowry, she may not have time to help again.

When Ji Zhongchun came out for dinner, his face was still a little sluggish. Seeing that he was in a bad mood, the family didn't dare to joke casually, so they quickly finished their dinner and went back to their room.

After a brief wash, Ji Ziqi brought the boiled lotus seed soup to the Ji couple's room.

When Ji Zhongchun saw her, there was joy in his eyes, which turned into disappointment.

She pretended not to see, and said with a smile: "Father, my daughter sees that you eat less at night, so she specially cooked lotus seed soup to honor you."

Then he gave him a playful wink, "I only cooked it for you, dad, not even my grandpa."

Hearing that it was specially for him, Ji Zhongchun's spirit improved.

Seeing his daughter's flower-like face, looking at him tenderly and delicately, Ji Zhongchun was both satisfied and disappointed.

Seeing his father down a big bowl of lotus seed soup, Ji Ziqi said in a low voice: "Father, I will come back often to see you and mother, grandpa, and Xiaoyu, Xiaofeng and Xiaoxing.

Even if the daughter is married, she is still the daughter of the father, unless the father intends to treat the daughter as a married daughter, like the water thrown out, and does not intend to take it back. "

Seeing that Ji Zhongchun's face was still gloomy, he changed into a coquettish tone: "Father, my daughter still thinks that if Du Feng bullies me in the future, she will ask you for help? You can't let my daughter go!"

Ji Zhongchun's face began to soften, and he reprimanded with a straight face: "What nonsense are you talking about? You are my father's daughter, and you will be it all your life!"

"Yeah." Ji Ziqi rested his head on Ji Zhongchun's shoulder, and said softly, "Father, my daughter will often bring her grandchildren home for a long-term stay, so don't think that her daughter will disturb you!"

Ji Zhongchun was so soft in his heart that he pretended to be majestic as a parent on his face: "Girls are always talking about their grandchildren before they are married. How can it be proper?"

"Father taught me a lesson! My daughter knows her mistake!" Ji Ziqi rubbed his head on his shoulder, and responded obediently.

Only then was Ji Zhongchun satisfied, and with a grin on his lips, he couldn't help showing his signature Father Ji's smile.

Father is done coaxing, and there is still mother to explain.

Before Ji Ziqi left with the tray, he said to Jiang Ling, "Mother, are you free now? I have something to tell you."

Jiang Ling nodded, and the mother and daughter came to Sanyuan together.

Ji Ziqi recounted the fact that Princess Zhangzhu came to her today, "Mother, I decided to go to the household department to help Mrs. Lin, so I may have to trouble you about the dowry and wedding dress."

Jiang Ling nodded clearly, and patted her hand, "Mother just said that out of anger that day, since Mother's Xiaoxue is not a thing in the pool, how can she be trapped in these boudoir trivial matters?
Mother has already told your grandmother about your wedding date, and she said that she will come to help mother at the beginning of next month.

It's the first time to marry a daughter, and my mother is afraid that there will be some incomprehension. Since she is an old man with experience, my mother will feel more at ease!
Xiaoxue, you can do what you should do with peace of mind.Mother believes that any choice you make is for the sake of our family! "

Ji Ziqi hummed lightly.

-

Master Lin, who returned to the household department after the morning court, saw Ji Ziqi waiting for him, he was both pleasantly surprised and surprised, "Xiaoxue, why are you here?"

"I miss you, my lord!" Ji Ziqi said with a smile.

Knowing that the words were to make him happy, Lord Lin still smiled, "Okay, stop being silly, tell me, what can I do for you?"

Ji Ziqi stepped forward to take his arm, and said considerately: "Grandfather, you are exhausted from the morning, please sit down first, and Xiaoxue will make you a pot of tea first."

Master Lin was very happy, and with Ji Ziqi's support, he sat on the grand master's chair.

After the tea was poured, Ji Ziqi got to the point: "Master, Princess Zhangzhu came to look for Xiaoxue yesterday."

The smile on Mr. Lin's face turned cold, "But I told you again that I asked you to come to the household department to help the grandfather?"

"Yes." Ji Ziqi smiled and said, "Master, you are really good, you can guess right."

"Xiaoxue, you don't need to worry about this matter. The grandfather has already rejected His Majesty on the grounds that you want to buy a dowry."

Mr. Lin didn't take her obvious sycophancy seriously, and snorted:

"As a subject, Grandpa should do his best for His Majesty and Li country, but he can't stand by and watch his great-granddaughter being bullied without being indifferent."
