Chapter 277: The Lady of the Marquisate vs. the Younger Prince 20
Ji Yunhuan rubbed his brows and tried to reason with Liang Er, "Then you can't sleep here either. Not to mention that you are the second master of the Marquis's Mansion, even if you are a servant on night watch, there is no reason for you to sleep on the floor."
Liang Er blinked his eyes and said with a smile, "It's pretty good here. There's no wind, no rain, and it's not cold. Don't worry, sister. I've even slept in a stable before, so I'll be fine."
Liang Er was really stubborn when he got stubborn. He was not easy to deceive this time. He refused to listen to anything. Ji Yunhuan had no choice but to ask Shiqin to move the bedding over and spread it out in the corridor.
"You have to have a name. The old marquis is gone and no one has given you a name. What do you think of the word Ye?"
Ji Yunhuan wrote on Liang Er's heart stroke by stroke, explaining: "Ye, the past cannot be retrieved, the future is bright and brilliant. Liang Ye, the past is just a fleeting glimpse, you have to look forward."
Liang Er frowned and said, "I don't want to have the surname Liang. I want to have the same surname as you. I want to have the surname Ji!"
Ji Yunhuan smiled gently and said, "That's childish talk. You are the old marquis's son, so of course you have to be surnamed Liang. The old marquis gave you his flesh and blood. He just doesn't have time to take care of you, not that he doesn't love you."
Liang Erting was not convinced. What was blood relationship? A voice in his heart told him that he and Ji Yunhuan were one family! Ji Yunhuan gave him soul and mind, so he should be named Ji!
But he didn't want to make Ji Yunhuan unhappy, so he reluctantly agreed, "Then the surname is Liang, Liang Yunye."
"Okay!" Ji Yunhuan agreed, "Let's go to bed early."
A good night's sleep.
Ji Yunhuan thought that she would suffer from insomnia after so many things happened today, but she actually slept very well, even the best sleep she had ever had since moving into the Marquis' Mansion.
Liang Er is a big variable. He can see through her mind. She should be alert. The more foolish a person is, the more dangerous he is because he is uncontrollable.
But she didn't even have the slightest bit of guard against Liang Yunye. She felt really relieved knowing that Liang Yunye was guarding outside.
The next morning, when Ji Yunhuan woke up, Liang Yunye was playing with a water jar in the yard.
It was very quiet in the main room. No one dared to speak loudly for fear of angering the killing god in the yard, who was a ruthless man who even dared to beat the old lady.
The doctor who lived in the guest room was asked to treat the old lady's injuries. He worked hard and wrote a prescription, but he didn't get a single penny and was kicked out of the mansion.
Ji Yunhuan asked the maid in the room to follow the doctor to the clinic to buy medicine and boil it, and stayed in the east wing to take care of Shiqi.
Shiqi is not convenient to move, so he can only stay in the mansion for the time being. Fortunately, Liang Yunye is here. Liang Yunye is very stubborn and will never let irrelevant people break into the east wing.
After everything was packed, Ji Yunhuan could finally take Shiqin out with peace of mind.
Liang Wanzhou returned home drunk and the first thing he saw was Wan Niang standing at the door of the mansion, waiting for him eagerly.
Wan Niang threw herself into Liang Wanzhou's arms, her shoulders half exposed, the hairpins on her head swaying and tinkling.
"The Marquis is finally back. I missed him so much. There was a lot of noise in the yard last night. The old lady and the mistress were arguing and fighting. I was really scared."
"I am a humble servant, and it is a great blessing for me to be able to enter the Marquis' Mansion and serve the Marquis. Unlike Madam, who is of high birth, well-educated, and arrogant by nature, she actually dares to go against the old lady. I would never dare to do that."
Liang Wanzhou burped, and the air was filled with foul smell.
Wan Niang buried her head in Liang Wanzhou's shoulder, revealing an almost unnoticeable expression of disgust. That expression only lasted for a moment, and soon she kissed the Marquis on the lips with a smile on her face.
As soon as Ji Yunhuan came out, he saw such an eye-catching scene and couldn't help but frown.
Wan Niang slid down Liang Wanzhou's body in a boneless manner, and delicately performed a not-so-standard salute towards Ji Yunhuan.
"Greetings to Madam. Madam and the old lady had a quarrel yesterday. Where are you going so early this morning?"
Liang Wanzhou thought that what happened yesterday was done.
He avoided going out on purpose and stayed at Zui Xiang Lou last night. He knew that the Marquis' Mansion had no money now, but he was the Marquis, and how could a dignified Marquis bow to a woman for a little money.
He felt that Ji Yunhuan should take out the money in her hand as she did before. If Ji Yunhuan refused, he would ask the maid beside her.
He believed that with his mother's ability, she would be able to get Ji Yunhuan's dowry. When the mansion became wealthy, he would be able to bring those concubines into the house in a grand manner. And the courtesan from Zui Xiang Lou last night was not bad either, it would be even better if she could be brought in together.
Liang Wanzhou thought Ji Yunhuan was going out to count the dowry, and he didn't care about Ji Yunhuan's cold face. Instead, he comforted her softly:
"The old lady is old. If there is anything she did wrong, you should be more generous and don't bother with her."
Ji Yunhuan dressed up specially today. She had her hair in a bun and her clothes were very fresh in color. She was extremely beautiful, and without the deliberate maturity and steadiness, she had more of a feminine cuteness and liveliness, making her even more beautiful that people could not take their eyes off her.
Liang Wanzhou pushed Wan Niang away and looked at Ji Yunhuan with interest. "Madam, you are very different today. Go quickly and come back. I am waiting for you in the mansion. Madam, you must seize the opportunity. When my concubine enters the mansion in the future, I will have even less time to visit your room."
Ji Yunhuan felt a chill in her heart. Could it be that Liang Wanzhou thought that she was deliberately seducing him?
She dressed brightly to make the princess happy, and also to remind Jing Yu of their youth if they met again.
Ji Yunhuan bowed to Liang Wanzhou perfunctorily and smiled politely, "I am going to the Princess's residence. I am afraid I cannot serve the Marquis. It is better to let Aunt Wan serve the Marquis. When a concubine enters the residence in the future, I will make proper arrangements for the Marquis and will never let the Marquis feel lonely."
Liang Wanzhou's face changed, "You are already a member of the Marquis' Mansion. Even if the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are not on good terms, you shouldn't bother the princess!"
"It is natural to be filial to your elders. Just give the old lady what she wants. We are a family. If you spread this matter to others, wouldn't it hurt the reputation of the Marquis' Mansion and the harmony of the family?"
Ji Yunhuan was surprised and said, "What are you talking about, Marquis? I went to the Princess's residence to teach the little princess her lessons and to bring honor to the Marquis's residence. If the Princess is happy, she might even reward you with a position."
"I have no bad blood with the old lady. It was my second brother who injured her yesterday. But the Marquis is broad-minded and I'm sure he won't hold it against me."
"What second brother?" Liang Wanzhou was still drunk and his brain was still a little slow to react.
Ji Yun's laughter became more gentle, "Liang Er, you should be called Liang Yunye now. Perhaps the old marquis is still alive and saw that the marquis's mansion was too small and the marquis could not support it alone, so he blessed the second brother to recover his sanity. Now the second brother seems to be more intelligent, and he is born with supernatural powers. Even Uncle Fang thinks he is a martial arts genius."
"My second brother is young, and he didn't mean to hurt anyone. If this matter gets out, wouldn't it hurt the reputation of the Marquis's residence and the harmony of the family? Lord Marquis, you should be more magnanimous."
