Chapter 080: Abandoning the Truth(1/2)

She used to be a bully and fearful of the strong. It would be fine if she jumped around in the countryside and villages, but she wouldn't dare to act arrogantly with Qiao in front of Master Guan? Unless she didn't want her life. But just leaving like this, she was really unwilling to give up and said hatefully, "Carring the wing room tomorrow, and the tables, chairs, benches, pillows and bedding are all ready. I'll move in the day after tomorrow!"

Liu made up his mind and refused to let the Zhou family take advantage of it. When she moved here, she had to teach these things that were disrespectful to her elders a lesson.

Ji Wan saw through her thoughts at a glance, a hint of mockery flashed in her eyes, and she smiled and said, "Did grandma move here alone?"

"Of course Ayun and A Song are together!"

Liu's attitude was unruly, as if he had regarded this house as his own property.

"That's it." Ji Wan's smile still, "The distance is long. Since grandma wants to come, she must have to stay for a few more days. But in this way, there will be no one at home. If the third uncle comes back, who will cook for him? And the farm work at home will be delayed?"

Liu originally made up his mind to live here for the rest of his life after moving in. There were maids and servants in the house to serve him, and he was frugal. Who would still be willing to go back to the countryside to live a hard life? Of course, she couldn't say this. She looked at Ji Wan coldly, "If you ask you to clean up, how can you get so much nonsense? It's not the season of autumn harvest now, what farm work can you do? Your third uncle is busy on weekdays and it's hard to come back once a month. When it's really a holiday, let him come here directly."

As the saying goes, there are many troubles in front of the widow. Since Zhou has been separated and there is no male master at home, it is even more taboo to avoid being caught and gossiped. Although Ji Yuan is a brother-in-law, he is also a man. If he often comes to Zhou's house and his neighbors see it, he might have to say it behind his back.

Liu's thick-skinned and playful personality really makes a joke. He will definitely throw all the dirty water on Zhou, and then naturally drive their whole family out and occupy the magpie's nest.

A trace of contempt flashed through Ji Wan's eyes, but her face did not show any signs.

"I understand, grandma, it's getting late. You can hurry up and get on the road. I have asked someone to prepare a carriage and take you to your door."

She smiled and looked respectful. In Liu's eyes, she had no choice but to compromise. When she heard that there was a carriage to pick her up, Liu became even more proud and told me: "Move the screen in your house and the items on the shelf to the west wing. The pillows and quilts were all duck down, and clothes, shoes and socks, and they had to be silk. A few maids would come to serve..."

This is not like the attitude of coming here to stay for a few days?

Zhou pursed her lips and did not interrupt her. After she finished speaking, she asked someone to send her out.

Ji Rong was so angry that he said, "Mom, sister, do you really want grandma to move in with us? If she moves in, she will definitely not want to leave. I may not be sure that we will have to steal our house in the future."

It’s not that Ji Rong is stingy and rude to save others, but she is really aware of this grandma’s temperament. She is tricky and domineering, unreasonable, distorted and disrespectful to the old man. If she really lives here for a few days, she will definitely promote everywhere that the house was bought by her son. If she lives there, she will not be able to leave. She is an elder and cannot drive her out, so she can only let her suck blood.

"Don't worry, she dare not."

Ji Wan won’t let Liu disturb their new life.

Ji Rong looked at her in confusion, "Sister, do you have a way?"

In Ji Rong's eyes, his sister was beautiful and smart, and nothing could hurt her.

"Silly girl, have you forgotten that when we split up, the third uncle personally admitted that he wanted to support his grandmother?" Ji Wan touched her head drowningly, "If grandmother has been living here and falls into the eyes of outsiders, she is homeless. In other words, the third uncle is unfilial. As soon as the third aunt died, the third uncle finally recovered his freedom and waited for three years to take the scientific examination and achieve fame. If he gained a reputation of unfiliality, he would never be qualified to take the scientific examination in his life. Then what would he do?"

Ji Rong's eyes suddenly lit up.

"To show filial piety, Uncle San will definitely come to pick up grandma home in person, and to avoid gossip, grandma will not dare to come to our house easily in the future."

“That’s right.”

Ji Yuan regarded his future more than anything else, and Liu regarded this young son as his life. Even for the sake of his son's future, she had to calm down.

"It's getting late, take a shower and go to bed."

The two sisters each had a personal maid, Xiang Fan and Xiang Bai. The two were sent by Qi Ji. They were originally a third-class maid in the Qi Mansion, but now they have become the first-class maids around the master. They are naturally happy and serve them very carefully.

During the day, Zhou and Qiu talked about the fact that they had to buy a servant at home. Qiu remembered it in his heart and brought the dentist to him the next day.

"She is in charge. Our family has bought a lot of people from her in the past two years. She is a trustworthy person. I can rest assured that my sister."

He just moved to Dengxian, regardless of his connections or market conditions, Zhou was almost confused and was not as familiar as Qiu.

"It's Mrs. Lau."

Qiu intends to make friends, but she will not refuse in a cold manner.

"Look at you, are you talking politely again?" Qiu saw that she was still a little alienated to her and didn't care. She smiled and said, "My sister's family has bought someone and is experienced. I won't get involved. You can choose slowly. There are still some internal affairs in my mansion, so I left first."

Zhou nodded with a smile, "Zheng Qing, send Mrs. Jiang out."

"yes."

In the end, Zhou bought eight people, four maids and four maids, a total of fifteen taels of silver.

"mother."

The devices and slaves that should be purchased were also purchased. Ji Wan was satisfied and remembered another thing.

"Ah Heng will be five years old next year. I thought I should send him to a private school."

Zhou's face was full of smiles, "I have thought about this. After the spring of next year, I will start to make arrangements. You and Arong can't be idle either. Now there are too many people in your family, so you don't need to do everything in business. When you are idle, you can practice your talents more, such as piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and women's red embroidery, you can't leave it behind."

Ji Wan: “…”

The female red embroidery of piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, and painting... The heroines in the novel learn quickly and learn well. Only when they fall into their own will they know how hard it is and how tired it is.

Fortunately, the original owner of this body has learned it, and it is easy to find the memory. It is just that there are too many daily courses, and Ji Wan said that she is under great pressure.

But whenever she wanted to be lazy, she looked at her sister who was studying hard and enjoying it, and the resentment in her heart disappeared. She was two years younger than her and didn't complain. She had lived for two lifetimes and couldn't stand the fatigue at all? That was too embarrassing.

So I had to grit my teeth and continue to persevere.

Not long after such a day, Liu came. She learned to be smart and gave Zhou enough time to buy the so-called furniture items before she brought Ji Yun and Ji Song to the door.

She didn't bring anything, she didn't have a single package on her, and she clearly wanted to eat Zhou's family.

On this day, Qiu happened to be there, and was talking to Zhou in the main hall. The maid in front came to report. Zhou was surprised at first, and then said to Qiu with an apology: "Madam, wait, my mother-in-law is here, I have to go to greet him in front."

Qiu had known that the Ji family had been separated, and although he didn't know who the old lady was following. Zhou had an uncle and a younger uncle, so no matter how he was, the mother-in-law, shouldn't be supported by her, a widow. Otherwise, she would have moved in that day.

She thought about it for a moment and guessed the reason. I am afraid that the old lady wanted to come and fight Qiu Feng to suck blood when she saw her wife being rich. She looked sarcastic, but there was a smile on her face. She stood up and said, "It turns out that I was bothering her. How could she delay my sister's business? The old lady is an elder, so how can she have guests sitting in the main hall waiting for her elders? Let's do this, I'll go with my sister."

The two left the main hall, and Ji Wan learned the news.

She smiled and looked at the two sisters of the Guo family who followed Qiu, "It's a coincidence today. My third uncle's cousin is here. You can stay here for lunch and see my grandma."

Qiu and Zhou had similar experiences in the first half of their lives, and the two women liked each other very much. Qiu brought their daughter to visit almost every day.

Guo Yan was twelve years old and Guo Li was nine years old. The four girls were of similar age, so it was fun to get together. After getting familiar with him, Guo Yan talked to Ji Wan about his experience of moving to Deng County.

The Chinese New Year was almost over.

Thanks to Yang Hu's help, the three siblings finally had a full New Year. Guo Yan took the unused money to buy rice and noodles, went to the river to catch fish, and prepared to eat during the New Year.

Guo Yan was killing fish at the door, and Qiu came in a carriage and a group of people.

Qiu went out of Taohua Village, so the villagers naturally knew her. When the maid lifted the curtain of the car, she carefully helped her get out of the car. The luxurious brocade and the rich and graceful manner in which he raised his hand made Guo Yan think that he had an illusion.

My mother's beauty has always been simple and low-key. When was it so bright and ostentatious?

This may be the reason why my mother left behind the three siblings to remarry.

The woman walked slowly, stepped on her beautiful cotton shoes, and walked in the mud in the countryside, looking out of place.

She said: "Sister Yan, I'm here to pick you up."

Guo Yan tried hard to look up and saw his mother who had not seen him for many years, and there was a slight light in her eyes.

Those eyes were as gentle and kind as when she was a child, which made her feel that her mother was not so cold-blooded and ruthless. She had never abandoned her children and just went out for a long trip.

But grandma's words are still in my ears.

"She was so angry that she remarried and became a rich wife. She would never come back in the future. No one is allowed to mention this woman again, and my Guo family doesn't have such a daughter-in-law!"

Whenever grandma mentioned her mother, she was so angry that she trembled all over and her face turned ashen.

Guo Yan still remembers that when her father was terminally ill, her mother was so worried that she burst into tears. On the day her father died, her mother also cried so hard that she fainted. But she didn't understand why her father's body was not cold and she left without saying goodbye and never returned?

She was only eight years old at that time and was just a child. She had just lost her father and had a mother. It was the darkest time in her life.

Later, grandparents also died one after another...

Facing the leaking roof, the dilapidated house, and the crying younger brother and sister, Guo Yan gritted her teeth and took on the responsibility of her elder sister, and carried the stormy home with her thin shoulders. When she gritted her teeth and swallowed her blood and tears into her stomach, she must have missed her biological mother often, wanted a warm embrace, and wanted to get her mother's comfort and care.

So when Qiu came back to pick them up with a gentle and loving smile, Guo Yan's heart was touched. It was a child who was instinctively dependent on his mother.

It is precisely because of this innate dependence and love that she hates her mother so much after being abandoned.

In fact, when grandparents passed away, Guo Yan went to find her mother. But the concierge refused to let her in, saying that the wife had just given birth to a young man and was in confinement...

At that time, the concierge saw her covered in patches, her eyes full of disgust. Before she could say that she was their wife's daughter, she drove her away.

My mother remarried and gave birth to a younger brother, so I don't want them anymore...

Nine-year-old Guo Yan stood on the long street outside the Jiang Mansion, staring at the tall door plaque, and his heart felt unprecedented hatred and despair.

Before that, she always had fantasies and felt that her mother who loved her so much would definitely not want her. But at that moment, she realized the reality.

So when her mother came to pick them up in a glorious way, she was briefly shocked and refused.

But she wants to consider the future for her younger brothers and sisters.

Grandpa and grandma have passed away, and it is all up to her to support her. She is weak and unable to go to the fields to farm. The family owes a lot of debts. If this continues, the two sisters can only sell themselves as maids. She doesn't care, but she doesn't want her younger brothers and sisters to suffer with her. If she sells herself as a slave, she will never be free in her life.

If my father knows him in the spring, he will be in peace.

The woman said, taking the three siblings to live a good life and taking good care of them in the future. She cried sadly and spoke earnestly, and her words were full of a mother's love and care for her children. Guo Yan didn't believe it, but her young brother didn't have a clear memory of childhood. A child's instinctive desire for maternal love made Goudan cry. Her sister also covered her face and cried, and she was very sad.

Guo Yan burst into tears, gritted her teeth and agreed to take her brother and sister away, but she refused to leave. She did not believe in the hypocritical woman, nor did she forgive her abandonment at the time, and would rather starve to death than accept the woman's charity.

Seeing that she didn't leave, my younger brothers and sisters all came over to hug her, and refused to leave her alone.

No matter what she said, her younger brother and sister would not listen.

The woman cried sadly and couldn't stop repenting and promised that Guo Yan finally compromised for the sake of her younger brother and sister.

The Jiang family is a wealthy businessman, with countless shops, restaurants, money houses, silk and satin houses, etc. everywhere. The Jiang family is naturally rich and rich, with every flower and grass piled up with gold and silver. She has an independent yard and a maid serving her. She eats fine food three times a day, and is no longer wearing coarse linen clothes, but silk and cotton clothes.
