Chapter 14: Adding fuel to the fire



After saying this, he smiled at Ye Wanshu again, "Wanwan, go back to your room and rest first. Father will be back from the palace to have dinner with you."

"good."

Ye Wanshu watched him get into the carriage, then followed the servant into Ji's mansion.

Ever since she left the Ji family with her mother, she had not known about the situation of the Ji family. However, she had heard her aunt mention that the one who was now in charge of the family in her mother's place was Aunt Zhou, who had bullied her mother the most.

Although there are still some childhood traumas, things are different now. The Ji family still relies on her to make friends with powerful people, so they are not worried that this woman dares to do anything to her openly.

As soon as I entered the courtyard and reached the entrance of Langfang, I saw Aunt Zhou walking out in bright clothes, wearing a peony red dress with wide sleeves, dressed up very gorgeously.

Even after more than ten years, that fair and delicate face still retains its charm, without any trace of the ravages of time.

Among the group of people following Aunt Zhou, there was a woman who was almost the same size as Ye Wanshu. She was most impressed by her because she was Aunt Zhou's daughter Ji Ningxi.

"You, child, haven't come back home for so many years. Your father and sisters are very worried about you. I was also worried that you were not living well outside, so I persuaded the master to take you back a long time ago."

"Really?" Ye Wanshu pursed her lips. "I miss you all too, so I'm not leaving this time."

Hearing this, Aunt Zhou's face froze, and she replied with a forced smile, "That's how it should be, that's how it should be, a family should be together."

Ji Ningxi remained silent, looking at the master and servants with interest, and suddenly frowned in displeasure.

"Big sister, you came home to see us for the first time, but you came empty-handed?"
