I was divorced because I got pregnant during the lean years, so I went back to my parents’ home and

As soon as Ji Xiaobei walked over, the two old women were pushed to the back.

"Bei, what did you see?" Mrs. Huang beat her chest anxiously.

Ji Xiaobei retracted his neck and said angrily: "I didn't see anything, but eight horse legs... You two can look!"

The horsemen had already entered the yard, leaving only two horses at the door.

During dinner, Haixia came back. He said that he had passed the academy's assessment and could go to study tomorrow.

He was packing his things in the house.

Two old women were making cotton clothes in the house with lights on.

As usual, Ji Xiaobei took Ji Deyan for a walk.

After she went out the door, the two horses were still in the alley on the west side. She couldn't help but look over there a few more times.

The old lady is also a pitiful person. She can only see her grandson when she is sick.

After walking around twice, she heard voices coming from the next yard. In order to avoid suspicion, she took a few quick steps and entered the house.

Go back to the house to eat fried soybeans.

Fu Jichang and Heita mounted their horses and prepared to return to the government office.

After officially taking office, he had been checking the household registration and tax documents of Anzhou Prefecture. The accounts were in a mess, which gave him a headache.

When Ah Huang went to the government office to look for him, he had just returned from the western suburbs.

There was an incident of soldiers and officers disturbing the public at the Xijiao Guard Station, and a conflict broke out between the two sides, which had a rather bad impact.

Although the Western Suburbs Guard Station in Anzhou was not under the jurisdiction of the Anzhou government, Fu Jichang was the judge appointed by the emperor. Since this incident happened in Anzhou, the Western Suburbs Guard Station still had to ask people from the government office to intervene.

Moreover, the commander of the Western Suburbs Guard was Fu Jichang’s old friend He Ye.

After Liang Zhizhou received the news, he reported it to Fu Jichang immediately. It would be better for Fu Jichang to handle the matter personally.

So Fu Jichang pulled himself away from the pile of information and hurried to the western suburbs.

After finishing dealing with matters in the western suburbs, I had just arrived at the government office and had not had time to drink a sip of water when Ah Huang came.

After rushing back, the court physician was taking the old lady's pulse and said that she had caught a cold, but it was nothing serious and she would be fine after a rest.

Seeing that the old lady was fine, he felt relieved.

During this period, Fu Jichang was so tired that his voice changed, he lost weight, and his eyes were bloodshot.

Just as he and Heita were about to leave, Ah Huang came out.

"Young Master!" Ah Huang called out sadly.

"Uncle Huang, is there something wrong?" Fu Jichang asked in a hoarse voice.

"Sir, Aunt Zhang said that the old lady always thinks of you and asked you to come back more often when you have time..."

"Okay, I understand! Is there anything else?" Fu Jichang saw Ah Huang hesitating.

"No, I just hope you can come back more often. When you're not here, everything at home is fine..."

Ah Huang said with a gloomy look.

"Don't worry, Madam Gui will take care of the old lady! If you have any problems, come to the government office to find me directly. Take this sign..."

Fu Jichang took off a wooden sign from his waist and handed it to Ah Huang.

"Uncle Huang, I just arrived at the Anzhou government office, and everything is not yet sorted out. You and Aunt Zhang should take care of the family affairs..."

"Sir, don't worry!"

Fu Jichang pulled the reins of his horse and went towards the North Lane with Heita, one in front and one behind.

The two men hiding at the back door of Magnolia Courtyard watched through the crack in the door as the two horses galloped away.

Ji Xiaobei sat in the room with his feet up, listening to the sound of horse hooves gradually fading away.

Ji Xiaobei: What kind of job does the old lady's grandson have? It's even harder than the 996 working hours of office workers!

It’s not easy!

Last time, Ji Xiaobei bought so many beans at the Nanjiao Market, and Mrs. Lin fried them and gave them to Ji Xiaobei as a snack.

This thing is crispy and delicious.

If you eat too much, you want to drink water, and if you drink too much water, you have to go to the toilet.

Ji Xiaobei has gone to the toilet three times.

She was squatting in the toilet and heard someone talking in the North Alley.

I couldn't hear clearly, it sounded like a man and a woman were arguing in low voices.

Ji Xiaobei pulled up his trousers and went to the door.

This terrible curiosity!

In the moonlight, she saw two people, one tall and one short, standing at the gate of Magnolia Courtyard.

The man snorted angrily: "As soon as he came back, you became a different person, distracted. You are the wife and he is the son. Don't you know it?"

The woman's cold voice: "Don't talk nonsense, recognize your own identity and be a good coachman!"

The man raised his voice: "You know best who I am. I am not someone who can be summoned and dismissed at will!"

The woman's humiliating and angry voice: "You, what do you want to do?"

The man sneered: "What do I want to do? I want to do what you always wanted to do before!"

“You!… Ugh…”

……

Ji Xiaobei stood at the door, staring in amazement.

Mother!

As expected, the coachman was not a real coachman.

Having an affair with Madam Gui...

Mrs. Gui also covets the old lady's grandson...

Ji Xiaobei felt like his three views were shattered. Incest?

She slapped her head and suddenly understood. How could Mrs. Gui, who was so young, be the mother of the old lady's grandson?

It must be an aunt or a concubine.

She went to the door and when she looked again, the coachman had already picked up Madam Gui by the waist, kicked open the door of Magnolia Courtyard and entered the yard.

Ji Xiaobei: …

The bigger your curiosity, the bigger the stage.

I really broadened my horizons.

After returning to the house, she suddenly understood why Mrs. Gui was getting medicine at the pharmacy...

Her head banged...

The medicine is for the old lady. Is there poison in it?

Mrs. Gui is so cruel.

How to do?

How to do?

Ji Xiaobei can't sleep!

She even wanted to tell the old lady's grandson everything she knew.

However, he was an outsider, and if he exposed the ugly deeds of his family, the old lady's grandson would kill him on the spot.

The ancients, especially scholars, cared most about face and believed that family disgrace should not be made public.

His servants have to remind him about this.

Ji Xiaobei tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. If it was just Madam Gui and the coachman having an affair, it wouldn't be a big deal.

Mrs. Gui was young and couldn't control herself, and the coachman just needed her. It was consensual, and they were both adults, so it was nothing.

However, Mrs. Gui tampered with the old lady's medicine, and human life is at stake!

However, these were just her own guesses, and she didn't dare to speak them out rashly without solid evidence.

what……

Ji Xiaobei felt that this was the most difficult thing he had encountered since traveling through time.

Fortunately, she didn't wear it to a wealthy family, because she was not good at palace fighting.

The next day, she sat at the dinner table with panda eyes and looked listless.

Mrs. Huang hurriedly pulled her hand and asked what was wrong.

"I didn't sleep well!" Ji Xiaobei said lazily.

"It's hard to sleep in the later stages. Go to sleep after dinner."

Mrs. Lin said.

Haixia, who was eating his meal, raised his head and looked at Ji Xiaobei in confusion:

Late stage, why is it late stage?

Are you sick?

"Mrs. Huang, Sister Xiaobei, are you sick?" he asked.

"You stupid kid, eat quickly, then go to the academy and study, don't ask questions."
