I just happened to run into two people acting suspiciously.
They are Ji Mingyan and Ji Mingshuang.
Ji Mingyan was carrying a box of things and Ji Mingshuang was holding a stack of books when they were caught by their third sister at the back door of their house.
Ji Yunxi raised her eyebrows: "Where are you going?"
Ji Mingshuang: "Go to Brother Li's house..."
Ji Mingyan: "Go find my brother-in-law!"
The two men obviously did not reconcile their statements and were exposed on the spot.
Ji Mingshuang glared at Ji Mingyan.
The two of them had clearly agreed privately to keep this trip a secret from Ji San.
After all, Ji San has been bewitched by Wu Weian and has lost his mind. Even if he rashly tells Ji San that something is wrong with Wu Weian, Ji San may not believe it. Instead, he may rush to ask Wu Weian directly. What if Wu Weian sends Ji San away with a few words?
Ji Mingshuang's idea was that he and Ji Mingyan would go to Wu Weian's house first to see the situation. After getting to the bottom of the matter, they would put the evidence in front of Ji San. Ji San would have to believe it even if he didn't want to, thus defeating Wu Weian's conspiracy in one fell swoop.
But, Ji Mingyan, this fool, ruined everything!
Ji Yunxi said calmly, "I'm going to look for him too, so let's go together."
Ji Mingyan: "Okay." He got on his sister's carriage first.
I have to say, my sister's carriage is really comfortable.
Ji Mingshuang was so angry that he sat in the carriage with a sullen face.
Ji Mingyan couldn't help but reason with his seventh brother again: "Mingshuang, I just think there's no need to hide this from third sister. Third sister and brother-in-law are husband and wife. They are going to spend their lives together. There shouldn't be any concealment."
Ji Mingshuang: "..."
Ji Yunxi then asked, "What happened?"
Ji Mingyan told Ji Yunxi everything about taking the pulse.
This was similar to what Ji Yunxi had guessed. She nodded and said, "Sixth Brother, can it be cured?"
Ji Mingyan held his chin in his hand and said, "I don't have any idea right now, but don't worry, Third Sister. I, Sixth Brother, will definitely find a way! I will definitely bring my brother-in-law back from the brink of death!"
Ji Yunxi was just asking; she wasn't really worried at all. Wu Wei'an looked like he was going to live a hundred years. "Okay, thank you, Sixth Brother."
Ji Mingshuang next to him didn't say anything. He was just observing his sister.
My younger sister has been different from other girls since she was young. She is like an adult at a young age. She is calm and patient when encountering problems, and it seems that she can solve any problem.
Sometimes he even had the illusion that it was not her brothers at home who protected her, but she who protected them.
Except for her own marriage.
At first it was Yang Weitian, and now it is Wu Weian.
In Ji Mingshuang's opinion, she was extremely irrational and was no longer like herself when she met a man.
But what if it’s not?
What if Wu Weian is not simple, and Ji San knows more about him than them?
As soon as this idea came into his mind, Ji Mingshuang was frightened by his own thoughts.
Ji Yunxi noticed the look on Seventh Brother's face. She picked up the cup and took a sip of water. "Seventh Brother, what's wrong with you?"
Ji Mingshuang stared at her: "You are not surprised at all when you know that your brother-in-law was poisoned."
Ji Yunxi didn't hide it: "I did guess it a long time ago."
Ji Mingshuang was surprised: "Then why did you get engaged to him?!"
Ji Mingyan was also surprised, but his focus was obviously different from Ji Mingshuang's: "So how did my brother-in-law get poisoned, and who was helping him?"
Ji Yunxi replied to Ji Mingshuang first: "I only found out about this after we got engaged."
Then he replied to Ji Mingyan: "I asked him, but he didn't tell me, so I don't know either."
Ji Mingshuang was furious: "He's a marriage fraud! He clearly knew he didn't have much time left, yet he still agreed to the marriage!"
Before he could finish his words, Ji Mingyan hit him on the head.
Ji Mingshuang: "Ji Mingyan!!"
Ji Mingyan looked disappointed: "You are so confused, Mingshuang! Wasn't it Third Sister who initiated the marriage? It was Third Sister who wanted to marry her brother-in-law, right? And who says that poisoning means you won't live long? I told you I will definitely cure it."
Ji Mingshuang had to remind him: "For hundreds of years, no one has been able to cure the Golden Toad Gu poison. Anyone who is poisoned by it will surely die."
Ji Mingyan clenched his fist, his eyes shining like stars: "Then I will be the first one!"
Ji Mingshuang's mouth twitched: "..."
He really didn't know what to say, he really didn't know what to do.
Facing the two people in the carriage, Ji Mingshuang said that he was really powerless.
Ji San and Ji Mingyan both have absolute confidence in themselves, and no one can change what they have decided.
Therefore, he should learn from his elder brother.
Only the eldest brother wouldn't be upset by his family.
Ji Mingshuang even suddenly realized that his elder brother's temperament was shaped by this.
Seeing that Seventh Brother was truly pitiful, Ji Yunxi offered some words of comfort: "Seventh Brother, the engagement is already decided. There's no point in saying more. Besides, it's a blessing in disguise, isn't it? Otherwise, would you want me to enter the palace?"
When Ji Ming's energy reached its peak, he was like a Buddha. He closed his eyes and said calmly, "Hmm."
What else could he do? He might really have to start trying to accept that Wu Wei'an was his brother-in-law.
But he still had doubts. He opened his eyes again and said unwillingly, "But Ji San, don't you want to know why Wu Wei'an was poisoned? Is he as he appears to be? What is his purpose?"
Ji Yunxi flipped through the books in her hand, shook her head, and said honestly, "I don't want to."
Ji Mingshuang: "..."
Ji Yunxi really didn't want to know.
She has never been a very curious person. It is enough for her to know that Wu Weian is a ruthless man with deep scheming and will be able to hold the position of prime minister in the future.
Now she has a golden finger, she knows the plot and knows Wu Weian's ending, which is equivalent to her having picked a stock that is bound to soar.
In that case, does she still need to know about the stock’s childhood and life?
