After saying this, Ji Mingshuang turned away.

Over there, after Ji Mingshuang left, Ji Yunxi went to Dongyun Cloth Shop and stood aside to discuss the matters of the cloth shop with the shopkeeper.
She glanced around and said, "There seem to be a lot more people in the cloth shop today."
The shopkeeper looked at his nose and his heart, and did not dare to answer.
There was no need for the shopkeeper to reply. The ladies in the crowd who had always been at odds with Ji Yunxi all looked at Ji Yunxi with sarcasm in their eyes.
When Ji Yunxi was going to marry Wu Weian, these people secretly laughed at Ji Yunxi for being blind. But things have changed. Now Wu Weian has risen to the top and become the prime minister, second only to the emperor, and is admired by everyone.
The ladies gritted their teeth, feeling very unhappy as they watched Ji Yunxi's life getting better and better over the years.
But they didn't dare say anything.
But things are different now. Lord Wu finally can't stand Ji Yunxi anymore and wants to divorce her!
"I've told you all before, after a woman gets married, she has to take care of the family and be filial to her parents-in-law. Running around all day, calling it business, but really just doing some low-class things. Sooner or later, you'll be kicked out of the house."
"Since my sister mentioned this, I remembered something."
"Oh, what's the matter? Tell me about it."
"My sister has a cousin who has always been cold and aloof. She doesn't pay much attention to others and is indifferent. Later, she married a man and treated him the same way. Guess what happened next?"
"What?"
"Within a few years, my cousin was kicked out of the house, and now she's living a miserable life."
They had long been fed up with Ji Yunxi's behavior. It seemed that no one was pleasing to her, and she was so indifferent to her husband.
Her husband is Lord Wu! He is a man of great talent, well-read, graceful, and fair complexion. When he smiles, he is a modest gentleman, gentle as jade.
Such a man should have married a gentle and virtuous wife, but he chose to marry Ji Yunxi. Over the years, there has always been only Ji Yunxi in the backyard. Even though Ji Yunxi only gave birth to a daughter, Wu Xiang did not take a concubine!
This made these ladies, who had disliked Ji Yunxi since childhood and had always hoped that Ji Yunxi would suffer, very unhappy.
But now, they feel happy.
Prime Minister Wu finally couldn't stand Ji Yunxi anymore and wanted to divorce her. It was truly a cause for celebration for everyone!
If they had not already been married, they would have wanted their father to help them match them up and become Prime Minister Wu's second wife.
Ji Yunxi listened expressionlessly, shook her head and ignored him.
She continued with her work.
The group of ladies also didn't leave. Wherever Ji Yunxi went, they followed her, surrounding her and making indirect insults and veiled comments.
The more he spoke, the more excited he became, with a beaming look on his face.
Suddenly, a carriage stopped at the gate of Dongyun Cloth Shop and Wu Weian walked in.
The noisy store suddenly became quiet. Everyone looked at each other and hurriedly saluted Wu Weian.
Wu Weian waved his hand, indicating that it was not necessary.
The ladies' eyes lit up, waiting for the show to begin. Their trip today was worth it; perhaps they could even witness Prime Minister Wu divorce his wife.
Wu Weian glanced at her and walked to Ji Yunxi.
Ji Yunxi glanced at him and asked, "Why are you here?"
Wu Weian handed over the sandalwood lunch box in his hand: "I'll bring you some soup."
Ji Yunxi: "Hmm?"
Wu Weian: "Seventh Brother came to see me and said you didn't look well. I went back home specially and asked the kitchen to make chicken soup. Remember to drink it."
Ji Yunxi took it: "Thank you."
Wu Wei'an: "You're welcome, Madam, thank you for your hard work."
The other person was quite close to Ji Yunxi, and neither of them lowered their voices, so everyone could hear the questions they asked back and forth clearly.
The glow on the faces of the ladies who had been beaming with joy just now gradually faded away.
What about the divorce?
Wu Wei'an glanced at him calmly and asked, "Why are there so many people in the store today?"
Ji Yunxi thought for a moment and said, "There are a lot of new clothes in the store recently. I'm sure the ladies will be very interested."
Wu Wei'an nodded and smiled at the ladies: "In that case, please don't hesitate to choose."
These people just came to watch the show, wanting to see the joke of Ji Yunxi, who was rumored to have been divorced, and had no intention of buying clothes at all.
But they always wanted to save face, and since Wu Weian had asked for it, it would be unreasonable not to buy it. In the end, before everyone left, they gritted their teeth and took one each.
Dongyun's clothes are not cheap. If she buys one like this, her husband and mother-in-law will find out and they will probably accuse her of wasting money.
Some wives whose mothers-in-law are difficult to get along with have turned pale.
Ji Yunxi retracted her gaze and asked, "How many people have you told about your divorce?"
It had only been two days, and almost everyone in the capital had heard about it.
Wu Wei'an: "Only you."
Ji Yunxi: "Are you sure? You haven't told anyone else?"
Wu Wei'an shook his head, suddenly remembering a fish that had slipped through the net. He narrowed his eyes slightly: "And Yun'an."
Ji Yunxi was speechless: "You and Yun An, are you talking about this?"
Wu Wei'an was silent for a while: "I asked her, if I divorce you, who will she be with?"
Ji Yunxi shrugged lightly and turned to leave.
Wu Wei'an: "Aren't you curious about Yun'an's answer?"
Ji Yunxi: "Isn't this obvious?"

In the East Palace.
The prince sat at the table, doing the homework assigned by the tutor today.
Below, Yun Xiaoan walked back and forth, occasionally running to the door to take a few looks, and then coming back to continue walking.
Thanks to the emperor's training since childhood, the prince is now able to concentrate on doing his own things in any environment without being affected by anything even though he is still a child.
After Yun Xiaoan walked back and forth for who knows how many times, Lin Congchong finally arrived.
Yun Xiaoan ran over and said, "Lin Chongchong, how's it going? What did your mother say?"
Lin Congchong panted and said, "My mother said that in this situation, we can only destroy before we can build again."
