Lord Ji Hou smiled and said, "I appreciate Brother Song's sincerity! It's normal for this kid to have a bit of a temper. Everyone has their youthful days!"

Is he really not angry?

That would be strange!

In the past, he just despised the Bo Mansion, but he was not dissatisfied. Now, not only is he dissatisfied, but he is also a little annoyed!

He knew about this yesterday, so he deliberately didn't go to court today.

Putting aside the question of how the Song family would preserve the reputation of the Marquisate, the fact that they had chosen the princess without informing them, and had the youngest son propose marriage at the critical juncture the afternoon before yesterday, was, in the eyes of all the civil and military officials in the court, a blatant provocation to the royal family!

However, since the selection of concubines was handled by the Queen Mother, if he dared to openly get angry at the Song family, the Queen Mother and the Xie family would immediately attack the Ji family, so he had to be patient for the time being.

Seeing the Marquis's attitude, Song Ming and the Li couple immediately became more enthusiastic about the Marquis's Mansion.

Song Ming's heart, which had been trembling with fear, finally settled down. His throat was choked with sobs as he uttered, "You are truly righteous! You are truly righteous, Lord!"

His voice rose a few notes in excitement. "Such generosity makes me truly ashamed! From now on, the Earl's Mansion will be willing to sacrifice our lives to repay the Marquis' Mansion for their forgiveness!"

Ji Xiangli smiled and waved his hand, his back teeth grinding against each other.

He turned around and ordered Steward Ji: "Go and call the Second Miss and Miss Sun over to accompany Miss Chuchu, who is visiting the mansion for the first time, and take a walk in the garden together!"

Anyone who can become the chief steward in a noble family always has a bit of shrewdness in his hair.

Manager Ji quickly figured out what was going on and hurriedly took the order to leave.

Originally, the Bo family and the Hou family had an engagement, and the Bo family brought a Miss Chuchu with them, the meaning of which was self-evident.

However, the Marquis did not ask him to call the Prince, but instead asked the Second Miss and Miss Sun to come out and accompany them. The meaning was very clear.

Song Chuchu also understood what the Marquis meant. She stood up and saluted, "Uncle, there is no need to mobilize so many people. Chuchu just came back from looking for her relatives half a year ago, and this is her first time to the Yongping Marquis' Mansion.

"Uncle is the master of the Marquis' Mansion. Watching him speak, Chuchu feels that she can learn many more skills than before. This is an opportunity that many people can't ask for. This is Chuchu's great fortune!"

Ji Xiangli was shocked.

He originally thought that the daughter who came back from the countryside would be a fool, but he didn't expect that her smart words and polite manners made him unable to find any flaws at all.

Only then did he take a closer look at Song Chuchu's appearance. Although she was not as elegant and bright as Song Wu he had met many years ago, she was also a delicate and pretty beauty.

He relaxed his brows and smiled, jokingly saying to Song Ming, "Look at this child. You two are so lucky!"

Not to mention Ji Xiangli was surprised when he heard Song Chuchu's words, even Song Ming and Li were shocked.

This kid is no worse than that bastard Song Wu! He's even better at gossiping than both him and his wife!

Steward Ji returned soon and said respectfully to Lord Ji, "Master, the Second Miss went out riding today, and Miss Sun packed up to go see the Third Prince!"

Song Chuchu quickly stood up again: "Really, there's no need to bother. I envy Miss Sun. She grew up with the Third Prince as a child. If she wanted to see him, she would just go to her sweetheart."

After Yingying sat down, she lowered her head and smiled bitterly, her eyes reddened at the right moment, and she looked lonely and forbearing.

Then, as if she had thought of something, she added with a smile, "Second Miss, I envy you too. With a smile, you step out the door, and the wind blows down a thousand miles of falling flowers. How many women envy such a carefree and open-minded life? Only the daughter of the Marquis's Mansion can live such a carefree life!"

After this, Ji Xiangli was shocked again.

It must be said that the second sentence really touched his heart. Which head of a family doesn't like to be praised for his ability and for making his children live an enviable life?

Just two sentences, but of extremely high level.

Not only does he appropriately express his courtesy, understanding, talent and cultivation, but more importantly, it makes people feel comfortable listening to it!

He knew countless people, but now he felt that this Miss Chuchu might not be what he expected.

He looked at Song Chuchu again.

He couldn't help but feel a little wary of the woman in front of him.

The prophecy of the Bo Mansion had occurred many years ago at Xuanyuan Temple, with his late wife present. There was only one person in the world who could be so honored by the old temple master.

But at this moment, Chu Chu mentioned that she envied Ji Tang for being able to go out with his sweetheart, the Third Prince. Was she hinting at her relationship with her youngest son Ji Bozhou, or was she interested in the Third Prince?

If you are interested in the Third Prince... No, the Third Prince's wife must belong to your granddaughter Ji Tang!

Then, seeing Lord Ji Hou said to General Manager Ji, "Then go and see if the prince is in the mansion. He didn't even come to see the uncle when he came. What a shame! Ask him to come and take Miss Chuchu out for a walk!"

Manager Ji was confused.

Could it be that my guess just now was wrong?

He hurried to find Ji Bozhou again.

Song Chuchu felt relieved when she heard what Lord Ji said.

Become!

She had prepared countless times for coming to the Marquis' Mansion today.

In her previous life, after Song Wu was divorced, she married into the Marquis's Mansion and naturally knew the temperament of her future father-in-law.

Steward Ji came back again: "My Lord, the Crown Prince is not at home today. He has an appointment with some young masters to go out for a poetry gathering."

He wiped his sweat. The prince was at home, but he was unwilling to come out to see them and was very angry.

He couldn't say that in front of others, so he lied.

Song Chuchu certainly knew that Manager Ji had lied, but this lie was beyond her expectations.

At this critical moment, given Ji Bozhou's temper, he certainly wasn't in the mood to go out and drink and write poetry. He was definitely in the mansion, but he just didn't want to see her.

In his previous life, also in this house, he was so obsessed with her.

Song Chuchu's eyes suddenly turned cold. Although she felt extremely disappointed and unwilling, she was no longer worried!

In short, it's all in her pocket!

Song Ming and Li originally believed what Manager Ji said, but soon they saw a figure passing in front of the flower hall.

That person was Ji Bozhou.

Lord Ji glanced at the people hurrying by outside, and Steward Ji immediately lowered his head.

Lord Ji's face trembled and his expression suddenly became a little ugly.

The visit ended soon, and Song Ming's heart was hanging in the air again.

The Marquis was not angry, but the Crown Prince was.

In the carriage, Li couldn't help but lament: "It's a pity that our Chuchu is so outstanding, but the prince..."

Song Chuchu sneered: "Mother, please don't say such depressing words! The prince will marry me!"

Song Ming's heart was beating fast: "But the prince is obviously angry..."

Song Chusi's injuries had healed a little, so he went with them today. However, because his parents were trying so hard to let Song Chuchu perform, he didn't say anything.

He said now: "But we have apologized and sent gifts, it's not us who are angry about Second Brother Ji!"

Song Chushi had been ordered not to speak all day, and now that he had a chance, he also rushed to speak: "That's right! It's Song Wu who is angry, not Chu Chu. He sees Song Wu is unhappy, so why don't we ask Song Wu to get out and not get in his way!"

Although it was an inappropriate statement, it really meant that to Li and Song Ming.

The day before yesterday, Li wanted to get rid of Song Wu but was almost struck by lightning. She really felt that this man seemed to have a bit of an evil nature, and she couldn't offend him. The prince also showed his anger to the Bo Mansion because of her.

Since he is no longer useful, we can't keep him around!

Song Ming also said quietly: "We can no longer get any good results from the prince. We can only do our best to protect the Marquis' Mansion!"
