Sir Song, do you want to pledge yourself to me?

Chapter 91 How to be a Prodigal Son

During dinner, Ji Wei heard that Ji Nuan had returned, so she came over to explain the production of the medicine and to have a meal.

Ji He ate and talked, sharing all his experiences along the way. When he mentioned that he and Ji Chuan went to the ceramic workshop and missed the scene of Ji Nuan "tricking others", he beat his chest and stamped his feet in regret for a long time, which made everyone laugh.

Ji Wei was a person who couldn't sit still and loved to listen to gossip. When she heard about this, her curiosity was immediately piqued.

She couldn't help but ask curiously, "Second brother, quickly tell us how Sister Nuannuan tricked that guy?"

Ji Nuan, who was listening at the side, couldn't help but laugh and said seriously, "Hey! Be careful with your words, I'm still here! I don't think I'm trying to trick anyone, it's just that I'm stupid, and I don't want others to be smart?" She added a bit of self-deprecation and humor, which made the atmosphere more relaxed and cheerful.

Father Ji suddenly burst into laughter, turning into a brainless braggart. "Right, right, right, you still don't let my daughter be smart? Our Nuannuan is smart, so how can she be called a liar?"

"Okay, okay, Sister Nuannuan, I said the wrong thing." Ji Wei apologized quickly, her perfunctory words obvious at a glance. After that, she complained to Ji's father: "Hey, second uncle, just let my second brother tell us what happened! We are so curious."

"Brother, you tell the story. I was not there at the time. I heard it from the third brother. He didn't explain it clearly to me." Ji He wronged Ji Chuan this time. Ji Chuan also heard Ji Nuan's general description. How could she explain it clearly to him?

Ji Shan recalled how Miss Shen was fooled around by his younger sister, and he couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"The story hasn't started yet, what are you laughing at, brother?" The second sister-in-law couldn't wait any longer and urged Ji Shan to start speaking quickly.

"I laughed at that guy for being so easy to fool!" Ji Shan said with a smile, and then slowly recounted what happened. Although he didn't have the eloquence of a storyteller like Chen Yu, he still told the whole story from beginning to end, making everyone listen with great interest.

"Oh my, how come Miss Shen is such a spendthrift? Can their family afford such trouble?" After listening to Ji Shan's story, the second sister-in-law couldn't help but sigh. She was very surprised by Miss Shen's behavior. She spent more than 20,000 taels on a single trip. This was unheard of.

Ji Shan continued, "I heard from the shopkeeper that Miss Shen is the youngest daughter of the family. She might have been spoiled by her family. That's why she is so willful and doesn't consider the consequences."

After hearing this, the eldest sister-in-law couldn't help but say: "Isn't that too willful? That's more than 20,000 taels, not 2 taels. These parents are too good at spoiling their children!" She shook her head, obviously disagreeing with this way of education.

Ji's father said from the side: "I think this child is just ignorant. Look at my daughter Nuannuan, she's very good, she's not spoiled and she's sensible." As he spoke, his face was filled with pride, as if he was very good at raising children.

After hearing Ji's father's boasting, Ji's mother rolled her eyes at him and said, "In your eyes, your daughter is the best! No one else's children are worth your attention."

After hearing this, Ji Nuan pretended to be angry and asked with a puffed face: "Mom, what do you mean? Do you want to say something bad about me?" She deliberately acted as if she was aggrieved, which made everyone laugh.

Ji's mother couldn't help laughing. "Hey, you little brat, am I saying you're not good? I was talking about your father! He only has you, his precious daughter, in his eyes. No one else can compare to you."

Ji Nuan also had the same proud expression as her father, "Hehe, that's because my dad loves me! After all, I'm his daughter!"

"Sister Nuannuan, my father loves me very much too." Ji Wei said on the side, with a happy smile on her face. Then she asked Ji Nuan, "The herbs that need to be ground were all prepared yesterday. When will we have new work to do?"

Ji Nuan smiled and said, "We can start making pills tomorrow. Some medicines need to be bottled directly."

"That's great!" Ji Wei was extremely happy when she heard this. "I'll notify them tomorrow morning. It's great to be able to make money again!" She was full of enthusiasm and anticipation for her work, and she smiled so hard that her eyes were invisible.

Ji Nuan looked at Ji Wei and felt that she was always on her side and loved making money, so she thought about it and asked, "Wei'er, do you want to be my housekeeper?"

Ji Wei didn't react for a moment, "Don't you already have your third brother as the chief steward?"

"He's in charge of the shop in Shuangxi County. I'm asking you to be a female official here, responsible for leading the team in making finished medicine." After Ji Nuan finished explaining, he asked her seductively, "Ten taels of silver a month, are you willing to do it?"

When Ji Wei heard about this treatment, her eyes immediately lit up.

She excitedly put down her chopsticks, hugged Ji Nuan and said, "Let's do it! Sister Nuan Nuan, you have to teach me. I will definitely try my best to do what you ask me to do!"

Ji Nuan nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay, I'll write you a letter of engagement later. You can take it back to show it to your uncle and aunt. If they all agree, sign it, and I will pay you according to the agreement in the letter of engagement."

Ji Wei nodded happily, "Okay, my parents will agree too. They just hope that I can be as capable as you! Thank you for giving me this opportunity, Sister Nuannuan."

Ji Nuan acted like a boss, patted Ji Wei on the shoulder and encouraged her, "Do a good job, Manager Ji! I believe you can handle this job, keep going!"

When Ji Wei heard this title, she smiled so hard that her teeth couldn't see her eyes. She nodded repeatedly and said, "Don't worry, Sister Nuannuan! I will do my best and won't let you down!" Her tone was full of confidence and determination, as if she had already seen her glorious future career as a housekeeper.

After dinner, Ji Nuan took Ji Wei to her room, wrote a letter of engagement for her, and then took out a small box from the box.

"Open it and see if you like it?" Ji Nuan said with a smile.

Ji Wei was very surprised and quickly opened the box.

Inside was a pair of exquisite silver hairpins and a pair of silver bracelets, shining with charming light.

"For me?" she asked in surprise.

Ji Nuan nodded, "Yeah. But don't tell anyone outside."

"I know." Ji Wei said with a smart look, blinking her big eyes, "Don't make them jealous of me! Don't worry, Sister Nuannuan, I know what to say and what not to say."

Ji Wei hugged Ji Nuan, rubbed her shoulders, and said happily, "Sister Nuannuan, you are so kind. You didn't forget to bring me a gift when you came back."

Ji Nuan patted her on the back gently and said with a smile, "Okay, it's getting dark, I'll take you home."

Ji Wei hugged Ji Nuan and refused to let go, saying coquettishly, "Sister Nuan Nuan, I don't want to go home. I just want to sleep with you."

"No." Ji Nuan refused decisively. She was hiding a big secret, and if she slept with her, she was afraid that she would accidentally reveal it. "I have to get up early every day to practice, which will disturb your rest."

Although Ji Wei was reluctant, she had no choice but to compromise, "Okay, then you take me home."

She reluctantly let go of his hand and followed Ji Nuan out of the room.
