Chapter 56: 密謀
[Conspire]
Even the maids on either side of them looked different from those in the other courtyards, and the clothes on them looked especially beautiful, even the daughters of small families outside might not be able to wear such clothes. Those maids looked at the two people with a very respectful look, as if they did not have the slightest other thoughts.
Tang Xiaobao was very keen to feel that their eyes seemed to have been roaming over Ji Ling’s body, and seemed to be very interested. Tang Xiaobao was very unhappy with his own perception. However, because they were in someone else’s yard, he did not say anything, but just leaned towards Ji Ling’s side.
Noticing Ji Ling’s small action, Ji Ling just took his hand, even the people on the side looked a bit surprised because of his action, he didn’t care. With this kind of action, the two of them came all the way to the meeting place.
Looking at this gorgeous place in front of him, even though a single item here could be worth a month’s worth of money at his place, Ji Ling still didn’t have any fluctuation.
Waiting for the master of the Ji family to come over with his wife, Ji Ling brought Tang Xiaobao to bow to the two people, and then stood there, waiting for his next words.
The Grand Master looked at his own nephew in front of him, with some doubt in his eyes, of course he knew that Ji Ling’s health had recovered, but for a moment it was still difficult to mix this person in front of him with the sickly child he had seen in the past. But because he himself didn’t have that many heirs, although he didn’t have a way out and was helpless, that was why he turned his attention to his ‘that no good’ little brother’s son that he had observed before.
The older one was physically weaker and weaker due to congenital deficiencies, and although he was talented, he could not give full play to his talent with such a broken body. Therefore, when he realized that his brother wanted to sacrifice him, he didn’t do anything to stop him. Just looking at this calm young man in front of him, many thoughts flashed through the Grand Master’s mind, and then he looked at his chosen husband without a trace. The heart is certain, there is an idea that gradually took shape.
The original hundred turns of the mind, just after a moment, and then looking at him, tone with a little familiarity, “This time back can get used to, if there is that feeling uncomfortable, you can go directly to find the big housekeeper, ask him to handle it for you.”
To the Grand Master’s sudden show of familiarity, Ji Ling was also very frank, looked at him and replied lightly, “Thank you for your concern, this is my home, naturally everywhere is suitable.”
The Great Old Master looked at Ji Ling’s above the road, his heart was certain, then he thought of the rumors he had heard, and wanted to examine him. If he hadn’t heard those rumors about Ji Ling, and his determination to do business and quickly win over the people, he wouldn’t have been so interested in him. Even recruited people back, if this time to find Ji Ling is a usable talent, then he can reconsider the succession of people; if it is still not good for its use, or with his own destruction.
Thinking this way, he wanted to take Ji Ling to the back of the study to talk about some of the problems he had recently encountered in his business, to see how he would deal with them, and then make a judgment. Thinking of this, he looked at his lady and ordered, “Madam, I will take Ji San to the study room.”
Hearing the Grand Master’s words, the First Lady responded mildly, “You go, Grand Master, it’s just as well that I’m taking Ji San’s fu lang to see the fresh flowers I’ve newly planted.”
The Grand Master nodded towards his own lady and prepared to lead Ji Ling towards the back.
Even though there was still a very suitable woman standing in front of him, Tang Xiaobao who saw Ji Ling leaving still couldn’t help but want to follow him, who knew that before he moved his steps, he was pulled by his own big lady’s arm, and then looked at him and smiled very softly and said, “Tang Ge’er, go with me to the small garden to look at the flowers, my children don’t like to come here, so it seems a bit lonely for me to be by myself. If you don’t mind, let’s go to the small garden and look at the flowers. If you don’t mind, then accompany me to take a look.”
The age of the big wife or eldest wife is not too old, in this place where early marriages are common, even the First Lady who has already given birth to several children is only in her thirties, and at this time, because of her good life and proper maintenance, she looks like she is only in her early thirties. For a young man who was already in his twenties in his previous life, Tang Xiaobao had little resistance to this kind of beauty who was only a few years older than himself. Looking at the big madam smiling and staring at herself, Tang Xiaobao’s face reddened, and then stammered, “Madam, I’ll accompany you then.”
Seeing Tang Xiaobao’s blushing face, the grand madam’s smile deepened as she led the way towards the small garden she had carefully planted.
After accompanying Da Fu Ren or The Old Lady to enjoy the flowers for a while, it was only when a maid came to announce that the Grand Master and his men had already come out that she softly instructed her subordinates to go to the kitchen to announce the dishes for today’s meal. After the maid left, she looked at Tang Xiaobao, who had been very quiet and well-behaved, and said with a smile: “Lao Ye and the others have finished their talk, so go back. After lunch, you guys can go back again.”
After spending the morning together, Tang Xiaobao felt that the First Lady in front of him was a good person, so hearing her suggestion, he nodded and followed her back.
When she arrived at the place where she started, she saw that the two had already been sitting there, still talking about something. The moment they stepped in, Ji Ling seemed to sense it and turned her head to look at him, quickly scanning up and down, and then quickly turned back to the topic of conversation.
The other two people present noticed this action of Ji Ling and exchanged a glance with each other.
The First Madam walked up to the Grand Master, still smiling, and softly asked, “Grand Master, when I came back just now, I saw that it was getting late, so I asked the kitchen to prepare lunch, so why don’t we wait for Ji San and his husband to finish eating before we go back later.”
Hearing the words of the First Lady, the Grand Master nodded, looking at his virtuous and capable wife with great satisfaction, and then looked at his nephews and said, “You guys will finish eating before going back.”
“Yes.” Ji Ling did not make any excuses.
Soon after, the maid who prepared the lunch came to show that the food was ready, seeing this situation, the Grand Master nodded, and then brought his party to the place where the meal was served.
Once you entered the door, you will see the table above the spectacular meal, Tang Xiaobao suddenly ate a shock, usually such a table are those who eat banquet family will be organized, and each time is more than ten people. He secretly counted the number of people eating this time, seeing only four, and suddenly felt very extravagant. But even though he is thinking like this in his heart, his face did not show. In addition to Tang Xiaobao, the other three appeared to be very frank, as if they were usually like this.
Because it was just an ordinary family meal, there was no need for so many formalities. All of them ate a good meal under the decoration of the subordinates, and when they finished eating, Ji Ling took Tang Xiaobao to leave. When they left, they got a bunch of things from big masters. He gave it to Ji Ling. His poor health needed to make up for a little bit, so he asked Ji Ling to take them back.
Ji Ling thanked them and took them back frankly.
After the two left, the Grand Master and his wife returned to the room, sat down and ate their tea one bite at a time. After a while, it was the First Lady who opened her mouth first, asking softly, “Grand Master, what do you think?”
To his own wife, the Grand Master has always felt very satisfied, usually having something to discuss, so now also does not hide, directly saying his own ideas, “I originally thought that his fame is because someone behind the guidance, who knows today tried to find out, actually is his idea. I’m afraid that no one in the next generation of the Ji family can compare to him.”
Hearing the Grand Master’s high opinion of Ji Ling, the Grand Madam was not surprised, and only asked from the side, “Then what does the Grand Master intend to do now?”
Hearing his wife’s question, the Grand Master paused for two seconds, and finally said in a slightly low voice, “After I am a hundred years old, if the Ji family is still in the hands of Ji Ling, it is estimated that the family will still be able to flourish. I don’t feel comfortable leaving it to others.”
The First Lady sat there, and hearing her grandmaster’s words, she picked up a hand towel and wiped the tears that appeared at the corners of her eyes, and said in a somewhat choked tone, “Grandmaster, it’s all my fault.”
Seeing the First Madam sitting there in tears, the Grand Master’s heart felt very bad. Although his own wife did not give birth to a son for him, that party’s concubines are very generous to promote the backyard, and even tried all kinds of methods, but there is no son. After so many years, he also resigned himself to his fate. To his own wife, still having a little pity, holding her hand, “Madam, do not blame yourself. I think if it is possible, this Ji family in the future may be handed over to the hands of this Ji San, but he grew up so big, we have not had any favor for him. I’m just worried that if he gains power in the future, he won’t favor his real father.” He had seen too many people who were out of control when they gained power, and Ji Ling’s business mind made him very satisfied, but he was also afraid of raising a white-eyed wolf who would not recognize others.
Hearing her husband say this, the First Lady (The Elder lady) thought about it for a while and said with a little thought, “It’s impossible to be towards Second Brother and the others, it’s just that we can’t guess Ji San’s character, so it might not be easy to control him when the time comes.”
The Grand Master nodded in agreement.
Seeing her Lao Ye’s support, the First Lady then said, “I still have a few unmarried girls at home, one of them is the most sensible, her talent, appearance, and personality are nothing to sneeze at, and she’s also close to me, and her family is not bad at all. In my opinion, why don’t we let Ji Ling marry her?” While saying this, in front of his eyes, appeared Tang Xiaobao’s face, the tone of voice slightly colder, “his original husband is only from a small family, even if it is now he turned into a concubine, he probably would not say anything.”
