chapter 98

“Auntie Wang, your craftsmanship is really good. It smells like…” Today, in the kitchen, Master Li took a holiday and didn’t come. Elder Madam Wang personally cooked and went to the supermarket to buy some food.

Ji Xiaoli made an exaggerated gesture and sniffed her. The sugar hooves on the table were especially the ones she loved to eat. Old Madam Wang looked at her and couldn’t help but laugh, “I’m just a good dish. I learned it from people back then. If you love to eat, I’ll always prepare it for you in the future.”

“Oh, then I’m lucky!” Ji Xiaoli blew a mouthful of soft skin with a sour and sweet sauce. The meat wasn’t too rotten and was chewy. Just looking at it makes her appetite good, don’t mention the feeling of eating at this time.

Just now, she almost blurted out that Aunty Wang’s family must be very happy to be able to eat such delicious food… But as she thought about it, Qin Zhenyang mentioned that Aunty Wang had never been married in her life and had a good time with a man when she was young. However, that person passed away in battle on the front lines, so she never had the idea of marrying anyone.

Elder Madam Wang narrowed her eyes with a smile and used the chopsticks to pick her food. “Eat more. You’re not fat. Don’t be like those girls. You know how to lose weight and it’s not good for your health.”

Ji Xiaoli knew that her man had a good relationship with her aunt, but she was the same when it came to her side. Ever since she was a child, only her father really cared about her, and now that she had an aunt, she really treated her.

“Auntie Wang, do you like bitter melon?” Although bitter melon was a good thing, but Ji Xiaoli couldn’t enjoy the taste of bitterness.

Elder Madam Wang didn’t nod or shake her head. She smiled and said, “I didn’t like it. I used to like it but I didn’t like it. Every time I ate, I threw the bitter melon into his bowl. Later, he was gone and there was no choice. I tried to eat this thing. It’s not right to say that I don’t like it now, but I can’t leave it…”

Ji Xiaoli paused. “Auntie Wang, you…”

“Let’s not talk about those. It’s been so long, so it doesn’t make much sense… Young Madam, drink this soup. I’ve stewed it for a long time, so I’ll help you brew a bowl.”

Ji Xiaoli sighed. She really wanted to say that if you got married, you might have a better life, but she knew that if she could do that, Aunty Wang would have done it long ago. However, she had always insisted, and her heart was probably with that man.

After dinner, Ji Xiaoli lay on the sofa for a while and prepared to go upstairs to prepare the design drafts. At this time, the doorbell at the entrance of the courtyard rang. Auntie Wang came out of the room and saw the person coming from the view window.

“Xiao Liu, why are you?” It was a staff member beside Old Madam Qin. It turned out that Elder Qin arranged for her.

Liu Mingsheng was quite polite to see her and she was also a junior. She smiled slightly and said, “Aunty Wang, it was the old lady who asked me to come and bring Miss Ji over.”

Bring the young lady over? Old Madam Wang looked a little complicated. At this time, the young master was not home, so why did he take him away? She also knew that Old Madam Xi had a problem with her family. It was precisely because of this that something must have happened that she summoned her back.

“Do you know what’s so urgent?”

Liu Mingsheng scratched his head. “I don’t know. Old Madam didn’t say anything. She just asked me to come over and lead her. Is Miss Ji home now?”

Even though Old Madam Wang didn’t know what was going on, she could still guess that something was amiss. The meaning was clear. If the young lady was at home, even if she didn’t want to go, Liu Mingsheng would force her to take her away!

The abominable thing was that the young master wasn’t home, so she couldn’t stop him even if she wanted to.

“Wait a little, the young lady should be sleeping upstairs. I’ll help you call.” It wasn’t unreasonable for Old Madam Wang to say this. Liu Mingsheng was a man, and there was a woman sleeping above him.

Liu Mingsheng didn’t object when he heard this. He stood on the sofa and waited. Obviously, he acted like he wouldn’t leave if he couldn’t get someone.

Old Madam Wang sighed. When she reached upstairs, she did not enter the bedroom. Instead, she called the young master in front of the bedroom door. She only hoped that the young master could pick up the phone at this time!

However, at this time, Qin Zhenyang was in a meeting in the big team. His phone had already turned off before entering the conference room, so no matter how Old Madam Wang picked up a call, she couldn’t get through.

“Auntie Wang, what happened?” Ji Xiaoli locked herself in the bedroom and thought about drawing drafts. Usually, if there was nothing else, Aunty Wang would never go upstairs to disturb her. She must have something to discuss with her when she came up anxiously.

Old Madam Wang’s usual calmness seemed to have been broken. She sighed, “There’s someone downstairs. It’s Madam Xi.” I don’t know what happened on the other end. I’ll have someone bring you over now.

Lead her over?

Old Madam Qin did pick a good time. Because the military was about to arrive, even though there were no closed training in all the military districts, they were starting to become nervous. The conference was endless, and the youngest son was not within reason, because her husband had left early in the morning. This was also the reason why she had someone bring this person over.

Ji Xiaoli frowned but her expression didn’t change. She forced herself to calm down and squeezed out a faint smile. “Then I’ll clean up and go with him when I’m back. Don’t let him wait too long.”

To say that she wasn’t nervous, it was a lie. At Qin Zheng’s engagement banquet, she had experienced Old Madam Qin’s poisonous tongue and ruthlessness. However, right now, she had already come to invite her. If she didn’t go, she would definitely be speechless.

“Young Madam, why don’t I go over with you? Even if there’s anything, I can help you…” Old Madam Wang looked at her calmly, the more anxious she became. If she really treated the young master as her own son, then to the young lady, she already regarded her as her daughter or daughter-in-law.

Ji Xiaoli shook her head. “Auntie Wang, you’re at home. It’s okay.” Even if Madam Qin didn’t like me anymore, she wouldn’t really do anything to me. If you go and speak for me, she might really think I am a monster.

“Why?”

Ji Xiaoli stuck out her tongue, “I’ve only been in this house for a year, but I’ve been able to make Aunty Wang go through the fire for me. So in her eyes, I must be a monster who can bewitch people.”

Old Madam Wang wanted to laugh, but she was still worried. She muttered to herself, “Even if it’s really a monster, it’s a monster that both the young master and I like. It’s not an unforgivable one.”

Next, Ji Xiaoli changed into a new outfit. When she was at home, she wore more casual clothes. However, since she was going to see Madam Qin, if she dressed like this, she might be said to be disrespectful to her elders. Therefore, she changed into a serious dress and put on a light makeup. Then she picked up her hand and packed her clothes downstairs.

Liu Mingsheng, who was downstairs, waited for just a quarter of an hour. He didn’t think that he had waited for long. Seeing someone come down, he was very satisfied. He glanced at the Third Master’s daughter-in-law.

The the Qin Family is rumored that the wife of the Third Master must be a demoness, otherwise how can the Third Master, who has never been close to women, be so distant from the family for a woman. The old lady and the old head are against it, and he is determined to be with this woman.

However, in Liu Mingsheng’s opinion, this woman was indeed not the same as the legendary one. It was not enough to say that she was enchanting or anything. She wasn’t gorgeous. At most, she was a beautiful woman, but she was very patient.

At this glance, he actually understood Qin San.

He stood up from the sofa and walked over to him with a faint smile. “Miss Ji, I’m Liu Mingsheng. Madam Xi asked me to pick you up.”

In the words of the staff and guards of the Qin Family, as well as the maids and housekeeper, this woman was even the wife of the Third Master, but she was not recognized by the old head. She could only be Miss Ji and not the Third Young Lady.

Ji Xiaoli didn’t seem to hear his illness clearly. The smile on her face was faint, “I’m ready. Since there’s nothing else, let’s go.”

Auntie Wang’s eyes were a little worried and she secretly said, “Don’t worry, young lady. I’ll tell him when he comes back.”

It’s just that the young master came back early in the morning and returned late at night. I’m afraid that even if he knows it then it doesn’t make sense.

Ji Xiaoli followed the man into the black Bentley car. The two of them were speechless all the way. After about half an hour, they reached the Qin Family house.

“Miss Ji, we’re here.”

This was the first time Ji Xiaoli had come here. Qin Zheng’s engagement banquet wasn’t held here. When she saw everything here, especially when she saw the armed guards outside the big residence, she was stunned and her eyes seemed to have a different emotion.

“Miss Ji, Old Madam is waiting for you in the living room.”

Mrs. Qin was sitting on the sofa sipping tea. She looked impatient and looked up at the time. “Why are you so slow?” This woman is too arrogant!

They waited for almost an hour.

Zhang Xiue was also sitting on the other side. She helped him add some tea and was about to interject to sarcastically when she suddenly saw someone walking over with a woman.

“Mother, she’s already here.”

Madam Qin suddenly raised her head. The green cup was still in her hand when a sharp gaze swept over to look at the woman who had been brought over.

It was her! The third child who seduced him didn’t even return home. He would rather live outside than be with her! This was not only the case now; this woman was also related to her grandson.

Madam Qin was still confused about whether Qin Zheng had stolen Third Bro’s woman. However, the eldest daughter-in-law had been muttering in her ear that it was this woman who seduced her. Otherwise, a grown man wouldn’t have been recruited so quickly. It wasn’t bad if she thought about it carefully, it was just a wish to beat her.

If this woman was honest, she wouldn’t meet Qin Zheng alone or have anything to do next! In other words, she could only say that this woman was not a peaceful person!

Madam Qin pursed her lips and placed the cup down. However, there was a loud noise in the quiet living room. She narrowed her eyes coldly and there was a hint of impatience on her lips. “Miss Ji, this is our second time meeting!”
