Chapter 174: Fifth Sister, Hate Me If You Want to Hate
Wu'an Marquis Mansion.
Ji Ziqi looked at Linyuan Pavilion quietly.
Everyone was shocked by what they saw. She was the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Wu'an, and the only daughter. Even though Ji Wu exploited her and didn't give her good food and clothes, she had received all the education that a legitimate daughter of the Marquis's family should have.
She has been an expert in playing the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting since she was young, and she can also identify all kinds of rare treasures. Having a discerning eye for treasures is one of the compulsory courses for the daughter of a marquis, so that after she gets married, she will not be laughed at for not being able to recognize treasures.
Therefore, she could see that all the items in this pavilion were incomparable to those outside.
Look at this marble blue brick, smooth and heavy, neither soft nor hard when you step on it, it is hot outside, but slightly cool here. This blue brick should not be mined from the mountain, but from the water.
There are also the antique vases on the eight-treasure stand. Each one is a treasure, and the first one is also a genuine one. Taking any one out can cause a huge sensation in the antique market.
The entire Linyuan Pavilion cannot be described simply as magnificent and luxurious.
Ji Ziqi was shocked. This was Fourth Brother's yard. This was the yard that belonged exclusively to the prince. It was so beautiful.
But all she saw was beauty and appreciation, nothing else.
Lu Shui stepped forward and said, "Fifth Miss, the prince wants to see you."
Ji Ziqi nodded and followed him into the house.
She thought her fourth brother's bedroom was just a bedroom, with a bed, a couch, a table, a screen, a few desks, and at most a large entrance hall.
But she didn't expect that her fourth brother's bedroom was composed of three rooms, inside and outside, and she was taken by Lu Shui to the outermost room.
In the middle of the outermost room, there was a marble carved table and several stone benches covered with cushions. On the table were seasonal fruits, which were thoughtfully cut into small pieces. There was also the woman's favorite tea and two plates of desserts.
When Ji Ziqi saw this, he lowered his head slightly.
In her yard, oh no, in her entire second room, you might not see such sweet and tempting fruits and pastries in a month.
Haha, I'm afraid no one would believe it if I told them. They are the legitimate children of the Marquis of Wu'an, but they don't even have an ordinary mansion. They may not even be able to eat a piece of cake, let alone the marble bricks transported from the water and the priceless antiques from the Eight Treasures Pavilion.
Her delicate fingers squeezed tightly.
"Fifth sister, you're here."
At this moment, Ji Chenchuan was pushed out by Lu Shui in a special wheelchair.
However, it is already early summer, but Ji Chenchuan is wrapped in a thick cloak.
When Ji Ziqi looked up and saw her fourth brother in the wheelchair, her eyes lit up at first, and his stunning appearance really made her stunned for a long time.
She knew that her fourth brother was extremely handsome, but she had never imagined him to be so handsome. This perfect face could only be seen in paintings.
only.
The next moment she became worried.
Even though he was stunningly beautiful and had a cool and noble temperament, his lips were strangely pale and his face was bloodless and almost transparent. If he hadn't opened his eyes and smiled, you could have said he was dead.
For some reason, all the resentment in her heart disappeared at this moment, and she stood up suddenly.
"Fourth, Fourth Brother, how could you?"
How could he be so sickly?
She seldom saw her fourth brother, the prince, because her grandmother never allowed them to meet. Moreover, her fourth brother had been in Qingyun Mountain for more than ten years, so she had very few opportunities to meet him.
Ji Chenchuan stretched out his hand, "Fifth sister, please sit down quickly. There's no need to stand up."
Ji Ziqi then sat back obediently, but she was still uneasy.
Ji Chenchuan smiled, "I still remember the last time I saw Fifth Sister, you were still a three-year-old kid. At that time, you asked me for some Wosi Candy?"
Once the conversation starts, the distance between the two people will be brought closer.
When he left, he was only five years old and she was only three years old. They were both ignorant. At that time, he came out of the palace and received a jar of silk candy from the emperor. He was the only one among the heirs of the entire marquis's mansion who had it. When Ji Ziming and his three brothers saw this jar of candy, they were as excited as tigers seeing meat.
Although he was young at that time, he knew very well who was good and who was bad. The more they wanted the candy, the more he refused to give it to them. Just then, a chubby little hand tugged at his clothes. He looked down and saw that it was his soft and sticky fifth sister. She was looking at the candy in his hand with her watery eyes.
Without a second thought, he gave her the whole jar of candy.
She smiled so cutely that her teeth were showing, and his heart softened. The so-called family love was probably like this between him and her.
Ji Ziqi also relaxed and smiled, "Yes, that was the best candy Ziqi had ever tasted. I still remember the taste...but I never thought why I was so bold at that time."
Her father had clearly told her not to conflict with her fourth brother and to protect him, but she was still young and didn't understand. She was also at the age of being greedy, so wouldn't she be unable to walk if she saw candy?
only.
Ji Ziqi's eyes lost their luster. "But this candy is gone after all."
After returning home, she was about to share the candy with her father, mother and brother, but Aunt Li who was beside her grandmother came over and took away the whole jar of candy without saying a word, and said viciously.
"This is a gift from His Majesty to the prince. You are not allowed to touch it."
She didn't understand what these words meant, but her candy was gone, and she cried for three days.
Ji Chenchuan placed a piece of cake on the jade plate next to her, his voice still gentle.
"Fifth sister, do you blame grandma?"
His grandmother loved him to the core and wanted to give her life to him, but she was extremely resentful of his third uncle's family. It was clearly the candy he gave to his fifth sister, but she demanded it back forcefully and said such hurtful words.
In addition, my grandmother watched helplessly as Ji Wu suppressed my third uncle's family, and their lives were as hard as Lin Qingjun's in Qijunyuan.
He was the second son of the Marquis of Wu'an. They should have been treated with great respect and honor, and should have enjoyed unparalleled glory and fine food, but they...
Ji Ziqi thought about it, and finally shook his head, no hatred.
Ji Chenchuan smiled slightly.
"Fifth sister, if you say you don't hate her, you're lying. We're all made of flesh and blood. After all these years of Grandma's behavior, how can I not feel hatred and resentment?"
"But Fifth Sister, if you want to hate someone, then hate me. Don't blame Grandmother, because..."
"Because this is the only way Grandma can protect your family."
Grandma's heart isn't made of iron. Uncle San is her flesh and blood, and Ziqi and Ziran are her dear grandchildren. How could she not feel pain? Uncle San's family has suffered so much over the past ten or twenty years. Isn't she also heartbroken?
Perhaps, it is even more miserable than their family.
But there is no other way, she has to do this. If people find out that something is wrong, they will probably become the next him.
Ji Ziqi looked up suddenly, unable to believe it. What did this mean?
Ji Chenchuan restrained his smile and looked solemn.
"Everyone thinks Grandma is blaming Uncle San for what happened to my parents. Everyone thinks she's trying to torture your family on behalf of my deceased parents."
