Chapter 417
Seeing Ji Yunqing's indignant look, it seemed that she was really angry about Ji Er belittling her. Ji Er didn't know what to say.
Are you saying that she is so self-deprecating?
Or is she just shameless?
Ji Er took a deep breath and repeated in his mind several times, "Only those who endure hardship can become successful people," and forced himself to calm down.
"Thank you for your teaching, sister, but——"
"But what but?"
Ji Yunqing picked up her words and said with a look of disapproval: "Second sister, you don't mean to say that you are so shameless? Are you so good at belittling yourself?
Even if your father forced you to be a lowly person, you wouldn't do this, right?"
Ji Yunqing sighed in a rhythmic tone: "Thinking back to those days, your father doted on you so much.
He held you in his hands and took good care of you, and couldn't bear to see you feel sad. How come you became like this now? What on earth did he think of you?"
After hearing what she said, even though Ji Erduo had experienced a lot and was thick-skinned and experienced, he couldn't stand it: "It's not like that, my father didn't force me to do it."
Ji Yunqing's eyes flickered, and he said in a persuasive way: "This is strange. Apart from your father, who else would force you like this?"
She wanted to see who had ordered Ji Er to come here.
Ji Er suddenly came back to her senses: "Sister, I wanted to come to you on my own. I know that the prince doesn't like me, but we are both daughters of the Ji family, and we must always consider the Ji family."
She spoke earnestly, tears welling in her eyes: "Sister, we were all raised by the Ji family. Don't you have any feelings for our father and mother? They gave birth to us and raised us for so many years!"
"Oh"
Ji Yunqing responded dryly.
Compared to Ji Er's abundant emotions, Ji Yunqing was extremely lacking in emotions in this regard. Not only were his eyes wet with tears, even the corners of his lips were not wet.
Ji Er was furious when he saw her like this: "Sister, why are you like this? I didn't know you were so cold-blooded and heartless."
"I will treat them the same way they treated me. The person who gave birth to me is gone, and as for the person who raised me... Who wouldn't raise their children? Do they give birth to children to eat?"
Thinking of how pale and skinny she looked when she first came, and how she was sent away in such a hurry three days after she jumped into the river, Ji Yunqing was furious: "You didn't even take good care of her, and you still have the nerve to question me?"
"Why are you looking at me? You are well fed and alive, you can do whatever you want. Did I have the conditions to do that?"
Ji Er thought she was exaggerating.
"No matter what, Daddy raised you and sent you to marry!"
"Send me to marry? Am I marrying?"
Ji Er wanted to say that King Zhao was a good guy. He had a noble status, handsome appearance, and was also good to Ji Yunqing. What else was she dissatisfied with?
But Ji Yunqing shut her up with a word: "The prince is so nice, why doesn't he marry here himself?"
Ji Er: “…”
Ji Yunqing was unwavering: "If you want me to pimp for you and Prince Zhao, you must meet one condition, that is, our father, Old Man Ji, climbs into the prince's bed and becomes his concubine!"
Ji Er: “…”
She was incredulous: "Are you crazy? Daddy is a man. If it were Mom, she would..." Not necessarily
No, no, no, she shook her head violently. How could she say that?
Ji Yunqing also had the same incredible expression: "Are you crazy? Madam Ji is not only a woman, but also your biological mother.
Don't you know how precious a woman's reputation is? And you are still ruining her reputation with such reckless words! "
Ji Er: “…” Then wouldn’t it damage my reputation if I let my father seduce the prince?
Ji Yunqing had a good reason: "Daddy went to seduce, at best he would be called a playboy. If he succeeded, both of them would be called playboys, but if he failed, he would be called playboys alone."
In a patriarchal society, no matter what outrageous things men do, there will be no serious consequences, and they may even be praised.
Just like King Zhao, his small paintings have been circulated, so now he should continue to do what he should do, right?
When you meet familiar people, you may just tease them a few times at most, and nothing will be affected.
Oh, Ji Yunqing heard that some people would even secretly download a picture of Meng and put it on the head of their bed.
He has even become more recognizable and popular among the people.
If it were a girl, her body would have been destroyed by her family long ago. If it were quick, she would have started over in her next life.
When Ji Er left, it was as if he was sleepwalking.
Ji Yunqing ignored her inner struggle and walked her out the door as if nothing had happened.
Before leaving, Ji Er did not forget to struggle: "I will tell Dad about this..."
Ji Yunqing was not threatened at all: "You can do whatever you want, I don't care"
Seeing that she was really heartless, Ji Er rolled his eyes and suddenly said something: "Speaking of which, my mother sent me a message a while ago saying that she met my cousin Zeng."
Ji Yunqing was surprised: "Really?"
Ji Er secretly observed her expression and determined that Ji Yunqing still had feelings for that poor scholar.
Finally getting back on track, Ji Er said proudly: "I don't know much about my cousin. I know my sister is anxious, but I can't do anything about it. Let's talk about it next time!"
After saying this, she left feeling refreshed.
Zeng Cheng was Ji Yunqing's former fiancé, and they had even eloped together. How could Ji Yunqing forget him so easily!
Ji Yunqing reminded enthusiastically from behind: "You're leaving now? Don't forget Daddy's lifelong happiness!"
It was visible to the naked eye that Ji Er almost sprained his ankle and was barely caught by the maid.
From a distance, I could hear Ji Er scolding the maid: "Why are you so clumsy? You can't even help your master, are you trying to find another master? You are a traitor."
After everyone left, Ji Yunqing sat down to rest again, and Xuancao quickly brought a cup of hot water.
When Nanny An heard the conversation between the two, she couldn't help but say a few words: "Master, what if the Ji family takes it seriously?"
If I really seduce the prince, I don’t know what he will think if he finds out that my master was behind this.
For a moment, Ji Yunqing was speechless.
"Mammy, do you mean that he, an old and frail man, could force a man who is in the prime of his life and strong and healthy?"
Isn't this worrying too much?
"What if I take the medicine..."
Nanny An couldn't persuade him any further. It was hard to watch an old man drugging a young and strong man.
Ji Yunqing comforted her: "Don't worry, Mammy, if the prince comes over, I will tell him what happened today in person."
If you don't come, there's nothing you can do.
Even so, Nanny An frowned secretly, wondering if the master was not respectful enough to the prince?
It's not just disrespectful, it's too presumptuous!
How dare other masters come up with such a bad idea?
I'm afraid I can't think of such a thing even if I rack my brains.
In the next few days, Ji Yunqing's place became quiet again.
