Chapter 229 Let Ji Zhixu do him a favor

Seeing that Ji Zhixu was about to take the cannon fodder female partner away without saying a word, how could Ruan Hantong do it so easily?

After all, she was thrown into the dungeon and stayed there for five days. If Mrs. Ruan hadn't cried and asked Master Ruan to come over and redeem her, and spent a lot of money, she would have stayed in this cell for a long time.

day.

When she thought about how difficult her life would be after returning home, the hatred in Ruan Hantong's heart grew even more.

How could she, a majestic heroine, suffer such injustice and not go back in revenge?

Mu Daiyao was in a good mood at first because she had concluded a big business deal and was not willing to argue so much with Ruan Hantong.

But seeing that Ruan Hantong refused to give up, pressing forward step by step, and stabbing people with words, she simply refused to give in, directly met his gaze, and asked word by word: "Miss Ruan, what's in your words?"

What do you mean, why, do you think you were thrown into the dungeon because of me?"

Hearing this, Ruan Hantong still looked innocent. She bit her lip and said softly: "I don't dare to mean this."

Don't dare?

It was a joke, as if she was intimidated by Mu Daiyao so she didn't dare to say it.

Mu Daiyao narrowed her eyes, and a sharp light flashed in her eyes. She was not angry, and he really regarded her as the weak and bullyable person before.

"It's best if you don't dare. After all, it's not me who wants to add milk to the food to harm others. It's not me who wants to pass the blame to others after the conspiracy is exposed. Since all this has nothing to do with me, then why don't you invite Ruan

Girl, please stop pestering me."

Speaking of this, Mu Daiyao glanced at Ruan Hantong, who was obviously unconvinced, and said coldly: "After all, being surrounded by flies all day long and making a stink for no reason is not a happy thing.

matter."

As soon as she finished speaking, she turned and left.

When Ji Zhixu heard this, he didn't even want to blink. The next second he saw Yao Niang leaving without waiting for him. He quickly wanted to catch up, but someone grabbed her clothes behind him.

horn.

"Brother Xu! Look at Sister Yao like this. Didn't you say anything to her? She stayed in the Liu Mansion all day today. Do you know what she did there? Don't you worry about her?

·······”

Ruan Handong knew that it would be more effective to stop mid-sentence, so she pursed her lips, lowered her head, and pretended that she had just spoken like that in a moment of urgency, and that she was not deliberately speaking ill of Mu Daiyao behind her back.

"I'm not worried. Yao Niang is such an old person. She naturally has her own sense of proportion in doing things. What's more, I am her husband-in-law. If I can't even give her this little trust, it's my fault, not Yao Niang's.

.”

Faced with Ruan Hantong's question, Ji Zhixu just answered lightly, and motioned Ruan Hantong to let go of his clothes with a cold look.

Seeing this, Ruan Hantong could only smile and let go of his hand.

"One more thing, Miss Ruan, everyone has their own life. I hope you won't pay too much attention to Yao Niang, and don't always keep an eye on what Yao Niang is doing. I hope you can understand.

The meaning behind my words."

Ji Zhixu knew that he could not be with Mu Daiyao all the time, but he also did not want people with evil intentions like Ruan Hantong to appear next to them.

When Ji Zhixu came to Mu Daiyao's side, Mu Daiyao turned her head and glanced at him, jokingly saying: "What, have you settled things with your sister Tong?"

"There's nothing to talk to her about. We're just from the same village. Where are the brothers and sisters? Yaoniang, please stop teasing me."

Ji Zhixu was a little helpless, but he also knew that Mu Daiyao was just joking casually and did not mean to speculate.

But hearing these words in Mu Daiyao's ears made her remember something.

Instead of leaving something to say when the time comes, it would be better for her to mention it first.

Thinking of this, Mu Daiyao lowered her eyes and thought about how to speak, and then pretended to suddenly remember this matter, and said: "Speaking of which, sir, Xiu Yun has not been home for several days, I remember

She is only acquainted with Miss Ruan in the village. Miss Ruan has spent these days in prison, so where did Xiu Yun go?"

Hearing this, Ji Zhixu pursed his lips and was about to speak when he was interrupted by Mu Daiyao.

Her tone was a little apologetic and she sighed.

"To say the least, it's all my fault as a mother who doesn't care enough. I ignored things as soon as they got too many. I thought Xiu Yun would come back on her own. I didn't expect this child to have such a stubborn temper, eh..."

"It's not your fault, Yao Niang. Xiu Yun's temper has been like this since she was a child. It was my neglect of discipline in the past that made her more rebellious as she grew up. And you don't have to worry too much, she has already gone home in the morning.

"

Hearing this, Mu Daiyao felt relieved. When she returned home, she could at least ensure that she would not cause trouble outside, and naturally the blame would not be placed on her.

"Going home? That's good. My husband, please don't blame Xiu Yun. She is still a child after all. If you teach her slowly, she will always learn well."

Seeing Mu Daiyao interceding for Xiu Yun so kindly, even Ji Zhixu couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"I understand, don't worry, Mrs. Yao."

The topic ended with Mu Daiyao's faint smile. She no longer thought about it, but instead thought about the flattery that would be sent to her tomorrow.

As for Ji Zhixu, who was walking beside Mu Dai, the words Ruan Hantong had just said to him echoed uncontrollably in his mind.

Yao Niang stayed in Liu Mansion for a whole day, but she didn't reveal any information to herself.

What on earth was she doing there, who was she going to see, and why did she have to make this trip even with the wounds on her face.

These questions were like little silver needles, piercing Ji Zhixu's heart from time to time.

It didn't hurt, but it was so itchy that he couldn't help but want to ask questions several times.

But every time he was restrained by himself.

He just told others to trust Yao Niang, how could he turn around and forget about it.

"By the way, Mr. Tomorrow, do you need to go hunting in the mountains? If not, can you stay at home and do me a favor?"

Just when Ji Zhixu was hesitating whether to ask or not, Mu Daiyao took the lead and asked him.

"Of course," Ji Zhixu agreed without thinking, and then asked, "What does Yao Niang need from me?"

"Your Majesty will know tomorrow."

Mu Daiyao said with a smile. She didn't plan to tell Ji Zhixu too much before everything was settled, otherwise she would have to waste more time explaining.

But it was precisely because of this that when Ji Zhiqiu knocked on the courtyard door in the evening and told Ji Zhixu everything, his face was expressionless, but there was an indescribable complex emotion in his heart.
