On the day Ji Yunxi and her group returned to the capital, the news that the Ji family had announced that Wu Weian would get the first place in the exam spread throughout the city.
The news was spreading like wildfire outside, and Ji Yunxi was not idle either. As soon as she arrived at the mansion, she began to count her property.
She first asked someone to call the butler and said, "Calculate how much gold and silver I have in my name and give me a number within today."
The housekeeper replied yes and went down to take inventory.
Then Ji Yunxi called Baofu and Wanxiang over and said, "Go to the warehouse and help me count the jewelry that I no longer use. After sorting them out, take them to the pawnshop."
Baofu was confused: "Miss, what happened?"
Wanxiang didn't even ask any questions and directly dragged Baofu, who wanted to find out the truth, to the warehouse.
Such a big move naturally alarmed the brothers in the mansion.
Less than half an hour later, Ji Mingyan rushed in: "Third sister, what's wrong? Our family is running out of money!"
Otherwise, why would the third sister pawn those jewellery and even count the property?
Ji Yunxi took a sip of tea and replied, "No, our family is quite wealthy."
Ji Mingyan patted his chest and said, "You scared me. I was thinking that if my family had no money, I would have to take action and make a living by selling drugs. But, Third Sister, what are you doing all this for?"
Ji Yunxi didn't hide it: "I'm going to the casino to place a bet tomorrow."
Ji Mingyan was shocked. "Third sister, when did you become addicted to gambling? This won't work! That casino is owned by the Feng family. I've long disliked the Feng family. And you're still gambling there. Aren't you just giving money to the Feng family?"
Ji Yunxi said leisurely, "I bet my husband can get first place."
Ji Mingyan, who was trying to persuade his third sister to give up her gambling addiction and become a Buddha, responded: "?!!"
"Remember to call me when you go to the casino tomorrow!" Ji Mingyan instantly got excited. "I'm going to check how much money I have on hand, too. I want to place a bet too!!!"
Before Ji Yunxi could even utter the word "good", Ji Mingyan jumped out.
She shook her head slightly, not taking it seriously, and continued drinking her tea and looking at her account book.
Before he could even finish turning a page in the account book, Ji Mingshuang strode in: "Ji San!"
Ji Yunxi's hands trembled with fear, and she was speechless: "Seventh Brother, you scared me. Can you please not be so jumpy like Sixth Brother?"
Ji Mingshuang was so angry that his handsome face turned pale: "You want to use all the cash in the family to bet on Wu Wei'an to win the first prize?!"
Really, Ji Mingshuang was really mad to death.
Think about how happy he was when he was traveling abroad. He was cheerful every day and was truly a gentleman of elegance and elegance.
But now, he has only been home for a few months, and he feels like he has been angered into an old man!
Ji Yunxi corrected him: "I won't touch the Ji family's money. I'm touching my own money."
Ji Mingshuang: "Does it make any difference? You have more money in your name than the Ji family!"
All the money in the family was earned by Ji Yunxi alone. Her brothers never interfered with it, so naturally they wouldn't take any of it.
When it came to money, the brothers and sisters were very clear about their budgets. They earned their own money, and each of them paid a certain amount into the Ji Mansion treasury every month for household expenses.
Therefore, the property under Ji Yunxi's name is really a very huge number.
Ji Mingshuang was naturally not jealous of his sister's money, he just felt sorry for her.
In Ji Mingshuang's opinion, this money will definitely be wasted.
Ji Mingshuang saw how hard Ji Yunxi worked to run her business over the years.
Ji Mingshuang was so disappointed with his son: "Ji San, I remember you weren't like this before. You've always been rational and intelligent, and you see things more clearly than I do. But why do you lose your mind when it comes to men?"
Ji Yunxi said seriously: "Seventh Brother, believe me, my judgment will not be wrong. An Lang is indeed capable."
Ji Mingshuang had a hopeless expression: "Forget it! Forget it! It's your own money anyway, I can't control it, and I don't want to control it! Don't come crying to me when the time comes! Even if you and Wu Weian beg on the street, I won't help you!"
After saying this, Ji Mingshuang flicked his sleeves and left.
But at the same time, he has already started thinking about how to make more money. After all, he will have to support his younger sister in the future.
My sister spends a lot of money and wants the best of everything. It costs a lot of money.
Oh, and maybe help support a brother-in-law too.
It makes me angry just thinking about it.
Ji Yunxi looked at Ji Mingshuang's angry back and felt helpless.
So, when she tells the truth, it seems like people around her don't quite believe it?
For example, that day when she told Wu Weian that she was his, although he was not as angry as Seventh Brother, Ji Yunxi felt the other party's smile.
Okay, no big problem.
Ji Yunxi drank a sip of tea and asked the maid to send some chrysanthemum tea to her seventh brother to reduce his fever.
As it got dark, Ji Mingxi returned home and the family had dinner together.
Ji Mingxi had also learned about what was happening in the mansion. He glanced at his sister, who was calmly eating her meal, and asked tentatively, "Yunniang, Mingshuang said something happened during your hunting trip back to Lushan?"
Ji Yunxi raised her eyes: "Which one are you referring to, brother?"
Ji Mingxi asked, "Uh, I heard that Wei An was able to get first place?"
Ji Yunxi nodded: "Yes."
Ji Mingxi looked at his sister for a while, but didn't see Ji Yunxi say anything else.
He went to look at his seventh brother who was eating with a grim face. It seemed that his seventh brother was angry with his third sister and didn't say a word.
Ji Mingxi sighed. Since there was no tea at hand, he could only drink some soup.
Ji Mingyan, who had just come back from borrowing a bunch of money, came running in. He just happened to overhear a few words and told him everything he knew: "Big brother, you don't know, but what those people said at the time was that if my brother-in-law didn't get a top score, it would mean that my third sister had poor taste. But how could my third sister have poor taste? So my brother-in-law will definitely get a top score."
Ji Yunxi glanced at Sixth Brother and was a little surprised.
