Chapter 351: Love Your Own Wife
Ji Ziqi was waiting at the gate of the mansion early.
"Fifth Miss, she is just a concubine's daughter. Why do you care so much about her? Fifth Miss, why don't we go back early? Look, it's getting dark."
Ji Ziqi frowned, "What do you mean she's a concubine's daughter? Once she marries into the Wu'an Marquis's mansion, she'll be the Crown Prince's Consort and my fourth sister-in-law."
"Also, don't say things like this again. I don't want to hear them either. Got it?"
The servant girl obeyed the order on the surface, but her eyes showed that she didn't care at all.
Ji Ziqi ignored her and looked outside with a look of worry on his face, until the carriage arrived in the night light.
She stepped forward with joy.
"Fourth brother, fourth sister-in-law, you are back. Come quickly, someone, bring a footstool."
Ji Ziqi stepped forward enthusiastically.
Lin Qingjun walked down from the carriage gracefully. Ji Ziqi supported her carefully, and kept telling her to go slower, fearing that she would bump into something.
What made Ji Chenchuan even more speechless was that after she helped Lin Qingjun down, she forgot that her fourth brother was still in the carriage?
Ji Chenchuan coughed lightly as a reminder.
Ji Ziqi suddenly realized that something was missing. He turned around, saluted, and called out, "Fourth Brother."
Ji Chenchuan's expression looked better now, and he was about to say some casual words, but after she bowed, she turned around and pulled Lin Qingjun away.
Ji Chenchuan was stunned. So, he was redundant? Okay.
Ji Chenchuan let the two women walk in front of him and talked to them. Seeing this, the corners of his mouth rose slightly. He felt a sense of warmth that this is how life should be and how family should be.
Ji Ziqi hugged Lin Qingjun's arm and started chattering.
"Fourth sister-in-law, I really didn't expect that you would actually marry my fourth brother."
"That day at Xiangguo Temple, I still remember Fourth Sister-in-law's demeanor. Really, I think people like Fourth Sister-in-law are what I want to be in the future."
When Ji Ziqi said this, his eyes sparkled and his face was full of excitement.
"I'm so happy! I'm even happier than Fourth Brother. Sister-in-law, you don't know that I have no one to talk to in this mansion. I'm so bored. Now that I have Sister-in-law to accompany me, I'm not lonely anymore. From now on, I'll come to play with you every day."
Lin Qingjun also likes Ji Ziqi very much. Although she was very timid at first, she is really brave. She is willing to save Madam Ji without fear of life and death. This filial piety alone is unmatched.
Lin Qingjun was about to agree when Ji Chenchuan hurried forward and intervened.
"No, you can't hang out with your fourth sister-in-law every day. Your fourth sister-in-law and I still have our honeymoon to go on. Go play somewhere else, little kid. If you get bored, spend more time with grandma."
What a joke! After getting rid of Xiao Yuan and Zong Yuancheng, and then Ji Ziran and Ji Ziqi, is he going to live anymore? He has been chasing his wife for two lifetimes. Who understands his pain?
Ji Ziqi uttered an "oh" with disappointment in her eyes, but then she became cheerful again, "It's okay, after you guys have your honeymoon, it won't be too late for me to come and play with Fourth Sister-in-law."
Ji Chenchuan hugged Lin Qingjun and declared his sovereignty.
"That's even worse. If you go play with her, who will accompany me? The woman I finally married is not for you to entertain yourself."
Ji Ziqi didn't dare to go against Ji Chenchuan and could only look at him with misty eyes, feeling extremely aggrieved.
Just as Ji Chenchuan was about to feel proud, he felt a pain in his waist.
Lin Qingjun twisted his waist and said, "Alright, Ziqi is not someone else, what's wrong with coming to play with me? But you, a grown man, how can you stay in the mansion every day? I think sister Ziqi is good, and I am happy to play with her."
She warned, "Ji Chenchuan, that's enough. Didn't you see she was almost crying? A brother should act like a brother."
Ji Chenchuan also looked aggrieved. "You are partial, you are sexist. Who said men can't stay in the mansion? I want to be the man who stays in the mansion and eats your soft rice."
Lin Qingjun sighed secretly, really, I am impressed by him.
"By the way, Ziqi, is this what you were talking about when you were standing at the gate waiting for me to come back?"
She shouldn't be that simple, right?
Ji Ziqi opened her eyes wide in disbelief. "Fourth sister-in-law, you're really smart. You guessed all this? I stood outside because, firstly, I was worried about you. Noble Concubine Ning's banquet is never a good one, and I was afraid you'd be plotted against at the banquet. Secondly, today, I accompanied my grandmother to worship Buddha, and on my way out, I ran into my eldest aunt, Ji Wu. She was holding several account books, and from the look on her face, it looked like she was going to plot against you."
"Fourth sister-in-law, you have to be careful."
This was why she was waiting outside.
Lin Qingjun laughed when he heard this. "She still wants to plot against me? Didn't she suffer enough that day? Fine, go ahead and attack me. I'm not afraid. What's more, I have a good helper like you. Two against one, we're guaranteed to win."
When Ji Ziqi heard this, he was not afraid but became excited instead.
"Can I, can I join in too? Can I deal with her too? That's great. I've wanted revenge for a long time."
She clenched her fingers and her eyes were red.
"I'll finally have the chance to repay her a hundredfold for all the suffering and hardships she's endured over the years. Fourth sister-in-law, you must take me with you. Also, you can't abandon me. From now on, wherever you go, I'll go with you."
Lin Qingjun stroked her hair gently and smiled softly, "Okay, from now on, you go wherever I go, and we will never be separated."
Ji Ziqi smiled through her tears. At this moment, their relationship was not just like sisters, but better than sisters.
This time Ji Chenchuan did not stop them. He watched with a smile on his face. However, he thought that the two of them would almost end their conversation here and go back to their respective homes and mothers. However, he did not expect that he underestimated how much the two women would talk about.
"...By the way, Fourth Sister-in-law, I've read the embroidery book you gave me. I love it. I thought my embroidery skills were pretty good, but after reading yours, I realized I haven't even gotten close."
"Really? I'm glad you like it. Don't be so self-righteous. In fact, your embroidery skills are solid. I also like the handkerchief you gave me."
"As long as Fourth Sister-in-law likes it, I'll embroider it for you next time. By the way, Fourth Sister-in-law, there's a set of stitches in this embroidery booklet. I haven't mastered it in three days. Can you teach me?"
"OK."
Ji Chenchuan looked at the darkening sky and objected forcefully. He pulled Lin Qingjun over with a sullen face and a strong threat. "No, go back now. If you want to learn embroidery, you can learn it another day. It's too late today, my lady. You are already tired enough and dinner is not even served yet."
Ji Ziqi was shocked. "No dinner? Oh, it's all my fault. How could I forget this? I was only thinking about my own happiness when I was talking. I will ask Fourth Sister-in-law for advice another day. Fourth Sister-in-law, go eat quickly. I will come back another day."
After saying that, she ran away as if she was afraid that Lin Qingjun would keep her.
Lin Qingjun's mouth twitched. "There's no need to be so fast, right? She can stay and eat with us. Ji Chenchuan, it's all your fault for scaring your sister away. She's ignoring you now."
Ji Chenchuan:??? This can all be blamed on him?
Well, you should spoil your own wife.
"Yes, yes, I was wrong. Next time, I will definitely invite Fifth Sister to dinner with me, okay?"
But they didn't notice that a pair of sinister eyes were staring at their retreating figures...
