"Yes." Ji Yunxi nodded, "I will have someone send one or two ounces of Danzhi to your house tomorrow."
Wu Wei'an bowed respectfully to her and said, "I will definitely remember Yunniang's kindness."
One or two ounces of Danzhi was just a drop in the bucket for Ji Yunxi, so she didn't take it seriously: "You're welcome."
"I think the family will invite An Lang to dinner in the next few days." Ji Yunxi paused, "I'll have to trouble you to go there then."
Who is Ji Yunxi?
Everything she eats, wears and uses is the best.
Not to mention the meals at the Ji Mansion.
Free food, anyone who doesn’t eat it is stupid.
Wu Weian naturally agreed.
-
Danzhi's existence makes many people hiding in the dark jealous.
There are desperate criminals, families with sick relatives and friends, etc.
Kaitai Village is full of traps and backed by the Ji family, so few people dare to enter.
The most important thing is that the Ji family is very vengeful. If you steal or rob something from the Ji family, your life will be over.
Even if you just stole a night pearl worth five hundred taels of silver, the Ji family would not hesitate to spend thousands or even tens of thousands of taels of gold and silver, and Quan Dayu would offer a reward for your capture, and the fight would not stop until you are dead.
Therefore, no one ever dared to touch the Ji family's property, and everyone tacitly waited for the owner to leave Kaitai Manor.
This information was collected by his subordinates and sent to Wu Weian a few days ago.
Although Wu Weian had been paying attention to everything in the capital before, he would not investigate it in such detail.
That day, after reading all this, he lamented to his second brother, "If we want to get off the Ji family's pirate ship in the future, it will probably be difficult."
But he didn't expect that his second brother asked him in confusion why he wanted to get off.
Wu Weian had nothing to say.
Is he going to tell his second brother that as a man of steel, he doesn't want to keep selling his body?
But having said that, our family conditions have indeed improved a lot recently, and my second brother's thin face has gained some flesh.
It is true that it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.
She is Ji San, and her heart is despicable.
Wu Weian shook his head and sighed softly.
He took Xuezhu's hand and whispered a few words to her, then got on the Wu family carriage and returned to the Wu Mansion.
And he drove the carriage himself.
In the alley beside Kaitai Manor, Xuezhu watched the young master drive away in the tattered little carriage, with a confused look on her face.
He couldn't understand why the young master wanted him to change from a sweeping boy who only swept heads to a sweeping boy who only protected heads?
He has no experience in protecting people's heads.
Fortunately, the head ran very fast, weaving in and out of the alleys and alleys of Shangjing City very flexibly, leaving the tail behind.
But there are still a few tails following closely.
Xuezhu was an excellent martial artist and was great at hiding in the dark. He was just about to step in to help solve the problem.
As a result, a cold wind blew, carrying some dust with it.
Xuezhu subconsciously covered her nose, squinted her eyes and looked at the white particles floating in the wind, and became eager to move.
I really want to pour a bucket of water to hold the dirty dust back, and then mop it away bit by bit.
But he has important things to do now, and he can't do this, otherwise the young master will scold him.
Xuezhu restrained herself and found that those who were following her had fallen to the ground silently at some point.
The head that the young master asked him to protect began to jump around in the streets and alleys again.
Xuezhu was bewildered:???
However, Xuezhu never wanted to think too much. He just needed to remember these things in his mind and then tell the young master everything.
He continued to follow the bouncing head silently.
Then it was discovered that the head changed its clothes in an empty alley, and continued to jump towards Xuanrenfang, only stopping at Ji Mansion.
Xue Zhu looked at the eldest guard of the Ji Mansion who had shown him the way that day and said with surprise, "Sixth Master is back!"
Xuezhu was still confused:???
He looked at the big guard, then at the plaque on the door of Ji Mansion, and then at the head that had followed him all the way.
Then Xuezhu realized that the face on that head seemed familiar.
"Why do you look familiar?" The kitchen lady looked gossipy.
Wu Weian glanced at her, and she shrank her neck, pursed her lips and stopped talking.
Xuezhu described it in a serious manner: "It looks very similar to the portrait of Madam's sixth brother."
The kitchen lady's eyes lit up: "That person is Ji Mingyan!"
Ever since Ji Yunxi approached Wu Weian, he had his subordinates investigate everything they could about the Ji family, including portraits of her brothers, and had his family members look at them so that they would have an idea of what was going on in the future.
Ji Mingyan, the sixth son of the Ji family, is also a prominent figure in the capital.
But he is not as famous as his younger brothers and sisters because people are reluctant to mention him.
Ji Mingyan works in the Dali Temple and is the chief priest of the Dali Temple.
The truth of the cases he handled was basically solved, because he was very good at forcing confessions and his methods were said to be very cruel.
The people have different opinions on how cruel this method was, and they are not sure which one is true.
But now it seems that poison was used.
The kitchen lady was very interested in Ji Mingyan. She looked to be in her forties or fifties, but her eyes were extremely clear and sparkled with interest. "Xuezhu, did he really take out those poisons and antidotes?"
Wu Wei'an warned calmly: "If you ruin my business, you know the consequences."
-
Ji Mansion.
The servants coming and going were all surprised when they saw the young man in red.
"Sixth Master is back!"
"Hello, Sixth Master!"
"Sixth Master is finally back!"
“…”
The young man in red was very enthusiastic and had a bright smile on his face.
"Hey, you've gained weight."
"Hey, you're getting pretty."
"The bruises are a bit severe right now. What did you do last night?"
"You've made it big." The young man in red touched Tang Hu's head and rubbed it without saying anything. "I heard you're following Ji San now."
