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

Nanny Zhang's hands were shaking badly, and Fu Jichang took the key calmly.

He looked up at Madam Gui and said, "Madam Zhang did not take good care of the old lady. She made a big mistake. Considering that she has served the old lady diligently all her life, please forgive her and let her go to the farm outside the city. Xiaomei and Ah Huang should also go to the farm together."

Nanny Zhang fell to the ground crying, and suddenly she stood up and slammed into the big pillar in front of the door.

Fu Jichang was quick to act and grabbed her arm.

"Sir, let me die to atone for my sin. I didn't serve the old lady well. I deserve to die!"

"It will be a relief when you die. I told you to go to the farm, didn't you hear me?" Fu Jichang roared.

Nanny Zhang was so frightened that she was shaking all over. She had watched Fu Jichang grow up, but she had never seen him get so angry.

Ah Huang knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly to express his gratitude.

Xiaomei kowtowed repeatedly with trembling hands.

The three of them had lived in the old lady's yard all year round, and being exiled to the farm was tantamount to a death sentence.

Any servant in the Fu family who made mistakes would be sent to a farm in the countryside, where they would do heavy farm work, go hungry, and eventually die from exhaustion.

Mrs. Gui raised the corner of her mouth in a barely perceptible smile.

Ertou, who was kneeling on the ground, raised his eyelids and saw only a pair of embroidered shoes of Mrs. Gui.

At this time, Heita hurried in and whispered a few words into Fu Jichang's ear.

Fu Jichang frowned even more and asked, "So urgent?"

Heita nodded.

Fu Jichang handed the key to Heita and said, "To Madam Gui!"

"I have something else to do. Madam Gui, you take care of the household affairs. The servants should sell what needs to be sold and buy new things. The things in the warehouse in the North Lane courtyard should be counted. When I come back, show me the accounts!"

"Yes, son!"

Mrs. Gui lowered her head slightly and watched Fu Jichang step out of the yard with his strong legs. She felt a little strange in her heart.

From now on, when the old lady is away and the young master comes back, the huge Fu Mansion will be ruled by just the two of them.

Thinking of his lean waist and tough, cold face, her heart trembled slightly.

There was a fiery impulse in my body.

This had never happened before. She was sold to the Fu family at the age of seventeen and became a concubine of Master Fu.

Mr. Fu is very busy every day, but he can't bear it as he is old.

She and the other two concubines were looking forward to the master coming to the courtyard.

But later, she found that her joy was in vain. The master just came to her room to rest and was too lazy to even comfort her.

There is no such thing.

The master always says that he is very tired.

She was so angry that she burst into tears.

But when she saw the young master, her heart was filled with love and her eyes were full of affection, just like a dried-up fish seeing a source of water.

She knew clearly that the water source did not belong to her and that one step forward would be into an abyss, but she just couldn't hold back.

From then on, his figure lived in her heart.

Mrs. Gui stared at the direction of the gate in a trance, listening to the sound of horse hooves gradually fading away.

Ertou coughed lightly, bringing Mrs. Gui back to her senses.

She saw a pair of jealous eyes staring at her.

She turned her face away and pretended not to see it.

Fu Jichang and Heita rode out of the North Lane and walked for a while before Fu Jichang pulled the reins.

"Let Xuyou and Yongheng secretly keep an eye on the house. Report anything unusual to me as soon as possible. Then go to the capital to get a doctor and send him to Miss Ji next door!"

"Miss Ji? Which Ji..." Heita asked stutteringly.

"Ji Xiaobei!"

Black Tower: Ah!

Miss Ji next door, why is it Ji Xiaobei? What’s going on?

He squeezed the horse's belly and chased after his master.

"I have official business to attend to, so I'll go back to the government office first..." Fu Jichang ran away.

Heita pulled the reins of the horse in a daze and turned three circles on the spot.

How did they come to Anzhou?

How did they rent the Fu family’s yard?

Who else came besides Ji Xiaobei?

Stone, Strait, Aqi, are you here?

Who else is coming?

A bunch of questions flashed through his mind, and he wanted to ride back to ask them.

What a jeer, young master, he only says a little bit and keeps us on suspense!

The old lady is not missing...We must find a doctor as soon as possible...

It took him a long time to come back to his senses and ride away...

.

Ji Xiaobei paced in the yard, listening to the noise coming from next door.

The sound of horse hooves, the gurgling of carriages, the whimpering of tears, and the sound of footsteps rose and fell in the alley.

The broken door of her house was tightly closed.

I don’t want to eat the melon at all, even though the melon next door is very big.

Wait a minute, what should I do if the old lady wakes up and cries and shouts about wanting to go home?

Huang Po had just finished taking the old lady's pulse and came out. She shook her head at Ji Xiaobei and said:

"How could he be so sleepy? He used up both his hands but he didn't wake up. He was sleeping so soundly."

Mrs. Lin asked quickly, "How is it?"

Mrs. Huang shook her head and said, "This pulse is a bit complicated, I can't tell for sure!"

"Forget it, let's cook first!"

Mrs. Lin let Mrs. Huang, who looked embarrassed, go and cook.

There was a sound at the door, a low whimpering cry, and the door was shaking from being hit.

Ji Deyan rushed out like a bullet, scratching the hole with his front paws.

The piece of wood that fell off was stuck in tightly and couldn't be removed.

Ji Xiaobei took a few quick steps and saw a ball of white fluff through the crack in the door.

"Little curly-haired puppy!" Ji Xiaobei opened the door and pulled it in.

Little Curly struggled to jump out of Ji Xiaobei's arms and ran to the backyard with Ji Deyan.

Ji Xiaobei: ...Damn, Ji Deyan is more attractive than me?

A pitch-black ball and a fluffy white ball were happily chasing each other in the backyard.

When I was tired, I rolled around in the vegetable patch and dug holes.

When Mrs. Lin heard the noise, she rushed to the backyard with a fire poker.

"Fuck you Ji Deyan, come out here! I'm going to break your legs... and you come out too..."

Mrs. Lin didn't dare to scold Little Curly because that was Fu Jichang's dog.

As the saying goes, when it comes to beating a dog, it depends on the owner.

The little curly-haired boy was so scared that he stared at Mrs. Lin with a pair of frightened eyes.

Ji Deyan pulled the little curly-haired boy out of the vegetable patch, sobbing and comforting him.

The fear in Curly's eyes suddenly disappeared.

Ji Deyan: Mrs. Lin has a sharp tongue but a soft heart!

She said breaking your legs was just a scare tactic!

Curly: Yeah, yeah!

The two little ones went to play in the chicken coop again, scaring the hens so much that they fled in panic.

"My dear, chickens need to lay eggs. You two..."

"Mom, keep your voice down, don't wake up the old lady!"

Ji Xiaobei stood behind Mrs. Lin and reminded her.

Mrs. Lin was so angry that she threw the fire stick far away, stomped her feet and went to the vegetable patch to support her seedlings.

The three of them were waiting hungrily for the old lady to wake up so they could have dinner together.

But the food was cold and the old lady was still asleep.

Two dark figures lying on the roof of Fu Jichang's yard were sniffing hard.

"Eternity, Eternity..." Xu Yu nudged the motionless Eternity with his elbow.

"What?" Yongheng continued to sniff motionlessly, carefully identifying the source of the fragrance.

He pointed towards Ji Xiaobei's house with his hand.

In a moment he flew to the roof of Ji Xiaobei's house.
