The female supporting role has arrived on the battlefield

Chapter 57 The Vicious Wife (28)

As a last resort, Wei Zichen could only stand far away and shout: "Miss Ji, I am Wei Zichen, do you remember?"

Of course Ji Ning remembered it, he only thought that the other party was coming to see him off, he raised the curtain of the carriage, but he didn't want to but saw that the other party and the two guards behind him were carrying a cloth bag on their backs.

"You are this?"

Wei Zichen picked up a sword and said, "The imperial decree ordered me to make a private visit as an imperial envoy. I thought Miss Ji was leaving Beijing too, so we could be companions on the road and take care of each other. Ji's father and mother also thought it was very good. "

No wonder Mother Ji didn't mention Wei Zichen at all when she left just now. She thought that Mother Ji had given up trying to match them up, and she didn't think she was waiting here.

Wei Zichen just licked his face and rode beside the carriage, talking to her from time to time.

Ji Ning mostly ignored it, but Wei Zichen was not discouraged.

There is no modern means of transportation, only relying on horse-drawn carriages and boats to travel very slowly. Ji Ning will travel for half a year every year, and come back in winter to celebrate the New Year with Ji's family.

As for Wei Zichen, since he has an official position, it is difficult for him to leave Beijing privately, but he can spend a month or two with her almost every year to play for a while, and the two gradually get to know each other.

But further, there is none.

Just like a confidant, Ji Ning did not give expectations and hopes, and Wei Zichen also pretended not to know.

Finally, a year after Wei Zi was promoted to a fourth-rank official, that is, the fifth year after winning the number one scholar, he resigned resolutely.

Although the new emperor was a pity, he happened to make room for the confidant he wanted to train, so he gave Wei Zichen a lot of gold and silver and agreed.

Wei Zichen, on the other hand, exchanged his belongings for bank notes, and left the capital with his guards on horseback, completely becoming Ji Ning's little follower.

The two have traveled around the mountains and rivers for many years, and they have a lot of common topics, and they regard them as confidants, but that's all.

As the time spent playing together as companions grew longer, Wei Zichen looked away a lot. Sometimes it is not necessary to be together, and it is also a kind of happiness to guard silently.

Perhaps it was because the original owner had been busy dealing with trivial matters in the mansion and the accounts of the shops under his name since he married into Wan's family, and coupled with Wan's mother's harsh words and taking so many years of medicine, Ning's health was not very good in his later years. But the early sixties are coming to an end.

Wei Zichen, who always abided by etiquette to her, couldn't help but stepped forward to hold her hand: "You hold on, I'll call the imperial doctor right away, no matter how expensive the medicine is, you will be fine."

"It's useless. It's not that I haven't taken tonics these years. Besides, I'm so old. Instead of drinking those bitter medicines, I might as well let nature take its course."

It is because the medicine is three-point poisonous. It is precisely because Ji Ning knows this truth that he did not continue to drink the tonic, but he did not pretend that his body should eat and drink. He just stopped the bitter and unpalatable tonic.

"Over the years, I have traveled to many countries, tasted different scenery, and tried a lot of food that I have never eaten before. I think it is enough. My life is more meaningful than many people. Xiao Huai's grandson is also engaged , Ji’s business is also good, and Yinqiao has also become a grandmother, I have no regrets. And thank you for being with me for so many years, you will always be my best friend, but it’s a pity that you have never been willing to get married.”

"I said that my courtship has always been effective. Life is not just about getting married and having children. I think the company of knowing each other for so many years is enough. I only hope that in the next life I can meet you earlier and protect you."

"You're fine, really, it's just that we met at the wrong time."

As Ji Ning spoke, he felt sleepy, and the choked voice seemed to get farther and farther away until he could no longer hear it.

When Ji Ning left, Ji's father and mother passed away more than ten years ago, Ji Huai and his children and grandchildren were sad, but they also knew that Ji Ning left without regret. In Ji Huai's words, Wei Zichen was respected and cared for like an elder in the family.

One year after Ji Ning was buried, Wei Zichen presented to the emperor the landform map of various countries that he had drawn with all his heart, and left half of the large reward he received to the Ji family, and took the remaining half with him to continue to visit the mountains, rivers and five mountains. .

After Wan Cen was imprisoned, all the servants in the mansion were sold to the dental firm, and the jewelry was also confiscated and returned to the creditor.

Even if she is used to enjoying a life, she has to go out to find a job, but because she is old and lazy, she only finds a dishwashing job that barely feeds her hunger.

It was hard to wait until Wan Cen was released from prison. Although Wan Cen lost his fame and was unable to take the imperial examination, Wan's mother had inquired that Wan Cen could earn more money from washing dishes than she could from reading and writing as a ghost writer or copying books for the study. If it is not possible, you can leave the capital to open a private school in a small place.

However, Wan Cen has been in prison for five years and has suffered so much. Whenever he thinks of his previous self-satisfaction, he always regrets it.

Wan Cen doesn't know how to criticize himself, so he regrets more times, and after a long time, he blames all of this on Yan Rou Wan's mother.

If it wasn't for Yan Rou's deception and temptation, he wouldn't take Yan Rou as his concubine and make Ji Ning angry, otherwise Ji Ning would definitely be willing to spend money for him. They all dredged up their connections and became county magistrates, and their official positions were promoted again and again.

And Wanmu, if Wanmu hadn't disliked Ji Ning's status as a merchant's daughter and wanted him to marry a wife with a higher family status after high school, Ji Ning would have already had a child, which would become a bond between the two of them. , will not be so unfeeling to him, and will support him everywhere.

Therefore, after Wan Cen was released from prison, he stole nearly a tael of silver that Wan Mu had collected and searched over the years, and then there was no news at all, regardless of Wan Mu's life or death.

Soon, the nearly one tael of silver was spent by him, and he wanted to be a ghostwriter to earn money, but he was penniless and couldn't even afford a piece of paper, let alone pen, ink, paper and inkstone, so he had no choice but to steal it. Grab food.

Wan Cen was originally a scholar, not healthy and inexperienced. He was found and beaten up the first time, and he never dared to steal again, so he could only beg along the street.

When I wandered to a small county far away from the capital, I heard a beggar traveling with me say that there was a female Bodhisattva passing by in the suburbs. It was a little late to go home, and she wanted to distribute steamed buns to pray for her parents, so she hurried away with a broken bowl.

When she was approaching Wan Cen, she caught a glimpse of that familiar face, no longer weak, old or indifferent in her impression, but full of smiles, as soft and beautiful as a girl. The servant girl was helping to give alms, and beside her was a The same handsome young man said something to her, Ji Ning frowned happily.

For some reason, Wan Cen was suddenly a little scared when Ji Ning saw him in a mess and wanted to run away, but the hunger in his belly made him unable to move.
