But when she was broke at first, she was also very careful with every penny she could spend, and she would never spend more than two cents. When she was broke, why would she be willing to do something for free? Of course, it was this matter, which was something she was happy to see happen.
Ji Yunxi lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, then raised them to look at him with a cheerful expression and suddenly asked, "Your partner is just lacking an identity and needs a face?"
Wu Weian paused holding the portrait, but his face remained silent, a look of surprise on his face. "Why would you think that? I'm only trying to help you."
"Oh, thank you very much." Ji Yunxi said perfunctorily, and it was obvious from her tone that she didn't believe what he said at all.
Wu Weian avoided the topic and was about to ask her how much she had given to the Fang couple so that they were willing to exonerate the person who killed their son, when he found someone coming to the door.
He had excellent hearing and could detect Ji Mingyan's footsteps as soon as he stepped into the Wu family's gate.
Wu Wei'an said to her, "Your sixth brother is here."
Ji Yunxi: "He should be here to see you."
Wu Wei'an held up the portrait and said, "I'm going to make the mask now. I'm counting on you to stop your sixth brother. I'll be away for the next three days, so I'll leave the Wu family in your care."
Ji Yunxi nodded: "I know, go ahead."
His face was calm and his tone was indifferent, which made people feel at ease when listening to him.
Wu Weian held the portrait in his hand, stepped lightly, floated to the ice jar, took away a bowl of ice jelly with the most rock sugar, and quickly disappeared on the spot.
Ji Yunxi stepped out, closed the door behind her, and walked out of the yard, just in time to meet Ji Mingyan who was running in.
When Ji Mingyan heard that his brother-in-law had fainted, he hurried over: "Third sister, how is your brother-in-law now? Is he awake?"
Ji Yunxi nodded: "I woke up for a while an hour ago, but now I'm asleep again."
Ji Mingyan immediately said, "I'll go see him!"
Ji Yunxi called out to him, "Sixth brother, Doctor Cheng said An Lang needs to rest. It's best not to let anyone disturb him for the next seven days."
Ji Mingyan said aggrievedly: "But I'm not an outsider."
Ji Yunxi reminded him: "But you are a little noisy."
Ji Mingyan was speechless. He admitted this himself, but he couldn't help it. He just liked talking to the people he liked. Was there anything wrong with that?
Ji Mingyan stood there with his head down, occasionally looking up at Ji Yunxi.
He was still thinking about the horse, but he hadn't told anyone about it yet because he hadn't figured out what to do.
But now, my brother-in-law has fainted because he missed the horse and needs to rest for seven days!
Ji Mingyan felt that the horse should be returned to his brother-in-law.
Ji Yunxi noticed his hesitation and asked, "What happened?"
Ji Mingyan hesitated for a while, then told everything to his third sister.
Ji Yunxi didn't expect that the horse was with the fifth brother.
But on second thought, this is actually a good thing.
At least in the next few days, no one will come to my door immediately.
Wu Weian’s seven-day vacation is guaranteed.
Ji Mingyan said, "I'd better go tell my brother-in-law about this. I can't let him stay sick forever!"
Ji Yunxi shook her head: "Sixth brother, this matter cannot be discussed."
Ji Mingyan was puzzled: "Why? My brother-in-law will be fine if I tell him."
"No." Ji Yunxi said slowly, "Doctor Cheng said that Anlang shouldn't be allowed to have too much emotional fluctuations in the next seven days. Although he is sad now, he has calmed down a little and accepted the fact that the horse may not be found. But if you tell him now that the horse has been found, he will definitely be overjoyed. Extreme joy and extreme sorrow are taboos, and I'm afraid Anlang can't bear it. It would be safer to wait until he is better before telling him."
Ji Yunxi knew the personalities of her brothers very well. If she really wanted to trick them, none of them would be able to resist.
Not to mention, Ji Mingyan is the easiest to fool.

In the secret room, there was a dim night pearl placed on the table.
The dim light reflected Wu Weian's face.
He was rarely serious, his lips slightly pursed, and his beautiful hands with distinct joints held an extremely thin needle. The needle tip was dipped in a special dye, and he flexibly moved it back and forth on the skin.
When preparing for the imperial examination, Wu Weian went to bed on time every night, and sometimes he would even be lazy when he got tired of studying.
But now, he only sleeps for one or two hours every day, and has no complaints. Instead, he is intoxicated.
Three days later, Wu Weian walked out of the secret room with a mask in his hand and a strange figure. Then he flew up and opened the cellar door.
The cellar was tucked away in the corner of the granary, unremarkable.
He closed the door again and walked out of the granary without looking around.
It's annoying just looking at it.
These days, the food in the granary is decreasing day by day at a speed visible to the naked eye.
I believe that in a few days, the granary will return to its previous empty appearance.
He couldn't help but wonder, were his subordinates really so broke that they would rather take the food than wait any longer? Couldn't they wait until he had money and then ask him for money?
Wu Weian opened the door of the granary and walked out.
It was already night outside, and the sound of frogs croaking could be heard from the pavilion in the middle of the lake.
Wu Wei'an looked up at the night sky and said, "Come out."
In the darkness, a masked man appeared. He lowered his head and bent over, saying respectfully, "Sir."
Wu Wei'an walked slowly through the courtyard and casually asked, "Three years, huh?"
The masked man nodded: "Yes, sir."
Wu Weian gently threw the freshly made mask in his hand, and the man caught it immediately.
Wu Weian: "Your future identity, Fang Yuan. Madam will tell you the details."
The masked man held the mask in his hand and let out a long sigh.
For three years, he lived in the dark, without an identity.
He should have been dead long ago, but it was the young master who gave him a life.
He waited for three years and finally got the chance to live in the sun.
The masked man said in a deep voice, "Yes, thank you, Master."
