Chapter 369 The child is not with the mother, but with the father
Ji Bolian was angry.
Not just ordinary anger.
He originally wanted to take his granddaughter home with him. He was so excited when he set out, but when he arrived at Wei's house and didn't see Jiujiu, he was very depressed.
Ji Bolian vented his anger on the Wei family.
He stood at the door of the front hall and accused hundreds of people of not being able to look down on a child.
The Wei family said they had not seen the child. Even if they had seen it, they had no time to pay attention to it. Everyone was hesitant and unable to explain why.
Ji Bolian scolded them all with a straight face, and accused them of "inadequate supervision".
Wei Tongyou, who had a slightly closer relationship with Ji Qingwu, stood up and said a few words of defense, but was silenced by Ji Bolian's long speech citing scriptures.
Mrs. Wei of Yiyangzhai learned that Ji Bolian had left the Wei family, and she immediately put down her prayer beads and left them on the incense table.
Confirmed: "Really left?"
Aunt Feng nodded: "Let's go. The nursing staff watched as we left, and took away all my wife's things."
Mrs. Wei let out a long sigh.
Aunt Feng asked in confusion: "The Wei and Ji families have always been at odds with each other. The uncle of the Ji family is really rude to the young ladies in the family. What do you think?"
Mrs. Wei continued: "Why didn't you go out and take a look? Why are you so afraid?"
The old lady got up and stood by the door, looking at the clear sky outside.
"Don't look at the fact that the boss of the Ji family is a third-grade salt transport envoy. Those who have been able to sit in this position in the past dynasties are all virtuous ministers who are highly valued by their superiors."
Nanny Feng asked even more doubtfully: "But last time Prime Minister Su and the wife of the Song family were at the door, and you went out to calm the scene. How can the official power of the Ji family uncle be greater than that of the prime minister?"
< br>
Mrs. Wei looked back at her and reminded her: "Have you forgotten what position Ji Bolian held before he was transferred to the south to serve as an official?"
Grandma Feng remembered it and suddenly realized: "You still have a good memory, you were really good back then"
It's true, because of this Master Ji, this famous uncle-in-law, there has been a lot of "turmoil".
Mrs. Wei said: "When Ji Bolian was in charge of the Sixth Section, he supervised the six ministries and impeached hundreds of officials. Even the emperor's decree was blocked by him."
Grandma Feng helped the old lady go outside to bask in the sun.
Mrs. Wei walked slowly and said: "I'm not really afraid of him. The Ji family wants to take Ji Qingwu back, which suits my heart. It's better to just go with the flow."
Nanny Feng said anxiously: "But what if the eldest son comes back and finds that the wife he married is gone, and there is another quarrel?"
Wei Ting was fighting with the old lady at home, which caused such a big fuss.
Mrs. Wei said: "I tried it out for Ting'er. This Ji Wu has no friendship with him. The long-term pain is worse than the short-term pain. Besides, I can't be blamed for this. It's his father-in-law who is dissatisfied with him."
< br>
"You are so fair. I feel sorry for the eldest son."
Mrs. Wei said: "How can I be so open-minded? There is nothing I can do about it. What happened to Ting'er's mother is a lesson learned from the past. After all, you can't stay by force, which will harm others and yourself."
Aunt Feng sincerely felt that Wei Ting was not worth it, and said: "Ji Wu can't even look down on a man like our eldest son. His eyes are as high as the sky. I don't think any other family will dare to want her in the future."
Mrs. Wei said: "Let's wait and see."

Ji Bolian returned to Ji's house with a grin on his face.
Mrs. Ji originally wanted to discuss with him again, not to be arrogant and let Qingwu return to the Wei family.
As a result, he learned that Ji Bolian went to the Wei family in person and not only returned the betrothal gift, but also brought back the dowry. He was so angry that he had a headache. Later in the evening, Giblian still entered the door of Anjuyuan, but after arriving, he began to show his face.
Mrs. Qiao was lighting incense sticks and glanced at him: "Master Ji, who are you showing off your shame to?"
Ji Bolian sat down, looked at the slaves in the room, and said in a deep voice: "Go to Wutong Garden and find Xiao Wu."
As if she hadn't heard anything, Mrs. Qiao spread out the account books on the table and said nonchalantly: "If you want to go, go by yourself. What do you want me to do?"
Ji Bolian pretended to be the head of the family, but no one paid attention to him. There was nothing to say between the couple and they fell into silence.
When the incense tablets were less than half burned, Ji Bolian finally couldn't bear it anymore and cleared his throat at Chunhua. Chunhua lowered his head with a look and retreated.
He came next to Mrs. Qiao, pushed her arm, and urged: "Go and ask Xiao Wu where she hid her granddaughter?"
Mrs. Qiao had better information than Mrs. Ji, and she had long known that he had gone to Wei's house and lost his temper.
"How do you know that it was Xiao Wu who hid the child and that it wasn't lost by someone from the Wei family?"
Ji Bolian glared and said: "Can a mother lose her child? She must have hidden it."
Qiao's hand paused while flipping through the ledger.

After Ji Bolian finished speaking, he realized something was wrong and added: "It was my husband's fault. I said the wrong thing in a hurry."
Xiao Wu was lost when he was a child, which was a forbidden area that the couple could not mention. Even if Ji Qingwu returned home, the two of them were still very sensitive about this topic.
Especially Qiao, she will cry whenever she mentions it.
Ji Bo patted her shoulder repeatedly and said, "My granddaughter is not in the Wei family, nor is she with Xiao Wu. Aren't you worried?"
Mr. Qiao was not worried at all.
Ever since I found out that this little granddaughter was the daughter of the current emperor, I felt confident.
Where else could it be?
Not with my mother, but with my father.
But Mr. Qiao did not dare to tell Ji Bolian the shocking news.
Seeing Mrs. Qiao lowering her head and not answering, Ji Bolian began to doubt his own judgment and said suspiciously: "How about I go to Jingzhaoyin to report to the official now? According to the confession of the Wei family, the child has been missing for two days."
< br>
Mr. Qiao impatiently closed the ledger with a snap.
"Whether you are done or not, I look at the account books, and you are buzzing in my ears, never stopping."
Mr. Qiao put the ledger away, locked it in a box, and put it in the cabinet.
Ji Bolian was anxious and wanted to know where his granddaughter was. He said: "You are so angry with me. How can you still look like the upright and polite daughter of the Taifu?"
Mrs. Qiao got off the bed, put on her shoes and was about to go out, saying, "Is this the first day you recognize me? Don't you know what I look like after more than twenty years?"
Ji Bolian chased her and asked: "I just said a few words. If we don't agree with each other, you are leaving. Where are you going?"
Because his tone was anxious, the volume was inevitably a bit louder.
Mrs. Qiao sneered and said: "You tricked me into marrying into the Ji family, and I guarded this mess every day. You left for several years, and you even shouted at me. From now on, I will leave the family affairs to you."< br>
She thrust the housekeeper's key into Ji Bolian's hand and said without looking back: "I'm going to stay at Xiaowu's place for one night. I see you are upset."
Gibren knew that she had a hard mouth and a soft heart, so he shouted after her: "As a husband, I know that Madam has a kind heart and knows the priorities of things. Go quickly, go quickly, and after asking, please send me a message as soon as possible."
"I'll be waiting in Anjuyuan!"
