After greeting each other, Madam Cheng was invited to sit in the guest seat.⊥,

Mrs. Ji Er first talked to Madam Cheng for a few family matters.

Ji Xiaotang and Ji Xiaoyun both sat next to Mrs. Ji Second. Ji Xiaoyun was even more curious about Madam Cheng than Ji Xiaotang, and couldn't help but look at her secretly.

Mrs. Ji Er quickly got to the point.

"............ Just these two girls sincerely ask the nanny to come to my house to be an offering and teach these two children."

Mrs. Cheng had already learned about the Ji family and sisters Ji Xiaotang from Mrs. Xie, so there was nothing to ask about. According to Mrs. Cheng's own statement, it was just a meeting to see if it was in line with her.

In fact, she was so obsessed by Mrs. Xie that she wanted to take the opportunity to meet, so she refused Mrs. Ji Er.

Seeing that Madam Cheng was pondering, Mrs. Ji Er asked the little girl to hold the brocade box and give her four gifts.

A piece of colorful satin, two boxes of fragrant tea, a square of gold-sold sweat towel, and a string of agarwood.

Gifts are not light.

"My grandma, don't be too careful. I haven't seen any good things from the people from the nanny's palace. I'm just going to think that I'm doing my best to be a landlord." Although I was eager to invite Madam Cheng to my house, Mrs. Ji Er was not aggressive in his words and attitude.

As Mrs. Xie said to her, Mrs. Ji Er is a person with a temperament and has a generous behavior. The Ji family is a rare and good place for people like her.

Even so, Madam Cheng did not accept the gift, let alone agree.

"...I thank my wife for her value, and I should have agreed immediately. I am old and full of illness. I am a useless person. I am just thinking about going home to support my old age and returning to my roots..."

As Madam Cheng spoke, she showed a refusal.

Ji Xiaotang couldn't let Madam Cheng refuse to say anything.

"Madam, can't you really stay? Please stay."

Ji Xiaotang actually spoke at this time, not only Mrs. Ji and Mrs. Xie, but also Madam Cheng was a little surprised. ()

Ji Xiaotang said this and didn't say anything more. He just looked at Madam Cheng. Madam Cheng is an idea-worthy person, and it would be useless to say too much.

Madam Cheng pondered.

The three of the Ji family, mother and daughter, noticed Ji Xiaotang as soon as she entered the door.

Ji Xiaotang is really too dazzling to ignore.

Even though he was used to seeing all kinds of beauties in the palace, Ji Xiaotang's appearance and demeanor still surprised her. But what touched her even more was Ji Xiaotang's gaze at her.

There are not many curious ingredients, but more warmth.

Yes, Ji Xiaotang's eyes and smile made Madam Cheng feel warm and even familiar.

This little girl has no stranger to her. She seems to have known her for a long time and is very close to her.

Madam Cheng's eyes and mouth showed a faint smile. This was a very rare thing for her.

She didn't expect that she would get along like this when she met Ji Xiaotang. Moreover, Ji Xiaotang sincerely tried to keep her.

This kind of sincerity was the first time she had encountered in these years.

She wanted to go back to Huizhou to calm down, but she actually just wanted to stay away from the troubles. She had people close to her. In her hometown in Huizhou, she actually had no relatives anymore.

"...If the wife and girls are not bad, I will stay for the time being and be a companion for the two girls." Even so, Madam Cheng did not say anything to death. She had a lot of savings around her and did not need to make a living. When she went to the Ji family to serve as a sacrifice, she would just take the word "fate". If "the fate is over", she could lift her legs and leave.

Madam Cheng is always so cautious in doing things, and Ji Xiaotang smiles knowingly.

When Mrs. Ji Er saw that Madam Cheng agreed, she was overjoyed.

"Mum is too humble. It is a blessing for these two children to invite a mother to our family."

Mrs. Ji was also anxious, so she discussed with Madam Cheng and Madam Xie that she would pick Madam Cheng up to live in the Ji family as soon as possible.

"When I went out, I read the calendar. Tomorrow is a good day." Mrs. Ji Er meant that Madam Cheng would live in Ji's house tomorrow.

Mrs. Xie had nothing to say. Madam Cheng thought about it and nodded, saying that she wanted to clean up.

"It finally came true." Mrs. Xie clasped her hands happily, "Madam Cheng likes Xiaotang very much... and Xiaoyun."

"They have joined the fate of Madam Cheng." Mrs. Ji Er said.

"It's not that I'm boasting. Whoever sees it can dislike our two girls?" Mrs. Xie smiled and asked someone to come in and give orders, saying that she would prepare a banquet and celebrate.

"You still have guests, forget it today, we will come again the same day." Mrs. Ji Er hurriedly stopped her.

"It's okay." Mrs. Xie said, "I don't need to interfere in everything there, it's all the adults who are cooking."

Since the guests came, Magistrate Xie lived in the study room in front and took care of the main courtyard nearby, and did not come to Mrs. Xie.

It would be fine if Mrs. Ji Er heard Mrs. Xie say this.

A little girl came outside to report that Xie Huaijin had finished school and came to pay tribute to Mrs. Ji Er.

"I said he should come back at this time." Mrs. Xie smiled and asked Xie Huaijin to come in.

Xie Huaijin came in and bowed to Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Ji Er, and bowed to Ji Xiaoyun.

Ji Xiaoyun is one year older than Xie Huaijin, and Xie Huaijin wants to call Ji Xiaoyun the sister. Then Ji Xiaotang saluted Xie Huaijin, and Xie Huaijin hurriedly gave him a gift.

"Mom, the peony in our garden is blooming just in time. I will take my second sister and Xiaotang to check it out." Xie Huaijin asked Mrs. Xie.

Mrs. Xie used her eyes to seek the opinions of Mrs. Ji Er, and Mrs. Ji Er looked at her two daughters.

Ji Xiaotang was irresistible, but Ji Xiaoyun shook her head.

She is not familiar with Xie Huaijin. Xie Huaijin and Ji Xiaotang grew up together since childhood, and they are very good. Ji Xiaoyun is unwilling to go with them.

She had been out for a while and wanted to go home and accompany Mrs. Ji.

Looking at Ji Xiaoyun's appearance, Mrs. Ji'er shook her head secretly in her heart.

Old Mrs. Ji raised Ji Xiaoyun and was very doting on Ji Xiaoyun. She almost wanted the stars not to give them to the moon, but she did not teach Ji Xiaoyun well. Although Ji Xiaoyun was very domineering at home, she often bullied Ji Xiaotang. However, when she went out, Ji Xiaoyun was the most timid and a little withdrawn.

This child will not be a good thing for this long time.

Mrs. Ji Er thought so in her heart, the more she wanted Ji Xiaoyun to get in touch with the outside world and experience more.

"Your uncle from Xie's family is not an outsider here, so you sisters will go for a walk. If you have girls and women, you will come back when you go." Mrs. Ji Er said.

Ji Xiaoyun looked around and nodded hesitantly.

"Take good care of your sister." Mrs. Ji Er whispered to Ji Xiaotang.

Ji Xiaotang nodded.

"I'm so happy to take care of your sisters, don't be naughty." Mrs. Xie also instructed Xie Huaijin, and then beat several mature daughters-in-law to accompany their sisters to serve them, so that they could feel at ease to let someone come out.

Xie Huaijin led the way, Ji Xiaotang and Ji Xiaoyun were surrounded by a group of maids and wives, and passed through two moon gates before reaching the entrance of the garden.

The garden of the government office is most famous for peony, which is called Peony Garden.

Now is the season when peony blooms.

The pavilions, towers and pavilions in the garden are small and unique. Looking around, the flowers are blooming and pleasing to the eye.

"I have long wanted to invite my aunt, Xiaotang sister...oh, come and have a walk with my second sister." Xie Huaijin was happy when he saw Ji Xiaotang happy.

"The flowers bloom better this year than in previous years." Ji Xiaotang said.

"...There were people in the garden. For generations, people have planted flowers and trees, and they have taken care of them more carefully." Xie Huaijin said. County Magistrate Xie liked these peonies very much, so he specially found someone to take care of them.

"No wonder."

Xie Huaijin took Ji Xiaotang to the garden while talking, and Ji Xiaoyun was also attracted by the scenery in the garden.

Unlike Ji Xiaotang, Ji Xiaoyun came to the county government.

After walking in the garden, Xie Huaijin took Ji Xiaotang and Ji Xiaoyun to a pavilion in the middle of the garden and sat down. The people who served brought fragrant tea and snacks over.

"The second sister likes it, so I'll ask someone to fold some and take it back and put it in a bottle." Xie Huaijin said to Ji Xiaoyun.

Ji Xiaotang received the instructions from Mrs. Ji. He took good care of Ji Xiaoyun along the way, deliberately looking for topics to talk to her. Xie Huaijin has always done whatever Ji Xiaotang likes, so he is also very friendly to Ji Xiaoyun.

Seeing Xie Huaijin talking to her, Ji Xiaoyun's face turned slightly red.

"Then there is no need to worry about it." Ji Xiaoyun whispered. After all, she is still a little girl. After playing for a while, she is not so reserved and nervous.

"It's not troublesome. The second sister is like at home, so you have to be polite." Xie Huaijin said sincerely.

Ji Xiaoyun looked at Xie Huaijin quickly and stopped talking.

"Xiaotang, I'll tell you..." Xie Huaijin looked around and said to Ji Xiaotang in a low voice.

"What, another murder case occurred?" Ji Xiaotang's eyes widened a little.

Every time Xie Huaijin and Ji Xiaotang meet, they will tell you something new outside to Ji Xiaotang.

Ji Xiaoyun also heard it next to her, and her hands were so scared that she trembled, and she almost spilled out the water from the teacup.

On one hand, he was afraid, but on the other hand, he was curious. Ji Xiaoyun quietly moved towards Ji Xiaotang.

When I get close to my sister, I don’t seem to be so scared, and I can hear it more clearly.

Seeing that Ji Xiaotang was interested, Xie Huaijin said everything he knew.

The murder case was born in Lijiazhuang, thirty miles west of the city.

To be precise, the victim's body appeared in Lijiazhuang.
