Chapter 694: Opposition
When she looked up again, she said with a slightly embarrassed look: "But, I met Mr. Ji San at the door today, and he didn't seem to like me very much..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Zihang, dressed in white brocade clothes with cloud patterns, rushed in.
His bloodshot eyes swept over Xia Chuhe, and he stared at Ji Nanchuan with anger on his face.
"Father, you can't let this woman in."
"Mother is the mistress of the Yongning Marquis's Mansion. What kind of situation have you put her in by doing this? You have an affair with another woman. Aren't you afraid of being ridiculed by the whole world?"
Ji Zihang today is very different from his previous high-spirited self.
The face that used to be fair and rosy has now become dull and bloodless, as if all the energy has been drained away, and the whole person looks very haggard.
"Why are you here instead of staying in your room?"
Ji Nanchuan stood up and looked at Ji Zihang with displeasure on his face.
Since his son failed in the Canglang Poetry Contest and was expelled from the Royal Academy, his reputation was ruined. He has locked himself up at home and secluded himself.
No matter how others called him, he was unwilling to go out or contact outsiders.
Ji Nanchuan once thought that Ji Zihang had given up on himself.
He went from being a favored child of heaven to an ordinary, down-and-out, incompetent person.
Ji Nanchuan was very disappointed with Ji Zihang's change.
Thinking back to the beginning, he invested the most in Ji Zihang and Ji Qingqing.
Ji Nanchuan had high hopes for the two of them and felt that the Yongning Marquisate would be able to create a more glorious future with their help.
But he didn't expect that these two people, whom he had high hopes for, would completely destroy the good reputation that the Yongning Marquisate had worked so hard to build.
He didn't know what was wrong with Ji Zihang today. He usually never even went out of the house, but today he took the initiative to come out and run here to make trouble with him.
Even in front of Xia Chuhe.
Ji Nanchuan suddenly felt humiliated and yelled at the servants outside.
"Come quickly, bring the Third Young Master Ji to me. It's inappropriate to make such a fuss!"
Two servants came in and tried to pull Ji Zihang down.
Unexpectedly, Ji Zihang broke free from the servant's hand and pushed the two of them out.
He looked at Ji Nanchuan with red eyes, "Father, I will never agree to let this woman enter the house. The Yongning Marquisate is not so poor that it needs a woman to help it."
After he finished speaking, he turned to look at Xia Chuhe and said through gritted teeth: "The Yongning Marquis's Mansion has a mistress, and the mistress will always be my mother, Meng."
"I don't care where you came from or what your relationship with my father was. Since you decided to leave and didn't choose to marry him, now you can forget about entering the Yongning Marquis's Mansion."
"A vain woman like you is not qualified to marry my father. My mother has worked hard for the Yongning Marquisate her entire life. What have you done for the Marquisate? Do you think it's natural that you want to take her place?"
"I'm going to make this clear today. If you want to enter the Yongning Marquis's Mansion, you can't do that unless you step over my dead body."
Upon hearing this, Ji Nanchuan's face instantly turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.
What he didn't know was that Ji Zihang had never met Xia Chuhe. The reason he came here was because Meng asked her maid to call Ji Zihang.
Meng knew that Ji Nanchuan felt sorry for Ji Zihang, so she started crying in front of Ji Zihang.
She said that Ji Nanchuan had found a new love and was planning to marry another woman, and that she, as the mistress, was likely to be divorced soon.
From now on, the three young masters of the Ji family will be without a mother.
He also said that Ji Nanchuan had no conscience. He had been managing the Yongning Marquis Mansion for so many years, but this was the result he got.
Although I was wrong, does that mean Ji Nanchuan was not wrong?
He should never, ever do this to her.
Mrs. Meng cried very sadly in front of Ji Zihang, which made Ji Zihang feel very sorry.
In an impulse, he ran straight to the front hall, found Ji Nanchuan, and said harsh words in front of Xia Chuhe.
Xia Chuhe sneered in her heart. How could she not guess who Ji Zihang was standing up for?
Of course, the more Meng made trouble, the more Ji Nanchuan hated her.
Based on my understanding of Ji Nanchuan, he is definitely not the kind of person who can be easily manipulated by a woman.
What Meng did was nothing but digging his own grave.
When necessary, Xia Chuhe doesn't mind learning to be a green tea.
If Meng dares to harm her parents and destroy the Xia family, she will never let her go.
Thinking of this, she immediately acted gentle and innocent and explained to Ji Zihang.
"Mr. Ji San, you may have misunderstood something. I have no intention of replacing Madam Meng."
"I just have a good relationship with your father. I know your mansion is in trouble now, so I want to help you. I don't have any other intentions."
It would have been fine if she didn't say anything, but as soon as she said it, Ji Zihang got angry.
When will it be the turn of an outsider to help their Yongning Marquis Mansion?
Ji Zihang knew that Xia Chuhe was Ji Nanchuan's first love.
The two had been in a relationship for a long time and were even considering getting married.
Such an identity is even more dangerous.
Besides, just now, he heard Xia Chuhe call Ji Nanchuan "Chuan Lang."
Ji Zihang concluded in his heart that Xia Chuhe was a big white lotus.
If the Yongning Marquisate allowed her to be the mistress, she would give birth to a child for Ji Nanchuan.
Then the three brothers will never have a good life again.
Ji Zihang thought about this and said bitterly: "You know whether it is a misunderstanding or not. My father was deceived by you, but I will not be deceived by you."
"If you know what's good for you, take your things and get out of the mansion right now."
Xia Chuhe's maid Luzhu saw that Ji Zihang had such a bad temper. She was angry and pulled Xia Chuhe's hand and said:
"Madam, since the Yongning Marquisate doesn't need our help, let's just take our things and leave."
"You know, these jewels of yours are your dowry that you have accumulated for most of your life. You usually don't even wear them yourself."
"You are willing to give these things to help others, but they don't even appreciate it. So why should we continue to give them what they want?"
"Madam, in my opinion, we should not stay here to avoid being criticized."
As Luzhu spoke, she walked over, took the jewelry box from the table, and held it in her arms.
She looked indignant, and she took Xia Chuhe's hand and prepared to walk out.
Xia Chuhe also let her pull her.
At the critical moment, Ji Nanchuan stepped forward to stop them.
His eyes fell on the jewelry box, his eyes flashed, and he said: "Chu He, don't listen to Zi Hang's nonsense. What I promised you will always count."
