Wen Zhigu decided to leave Ji Mansion.
Regardless of whether it was because she was too scared to face him, she didn't want to see Ji Xubai for the time being.
Early the next morning, Wen Zhigu called several maids from the Yuyuan over and gave them detailed instructions. When he was explaining, he realized how tedious it was to take care of Ji Xubai.
But even with such a tedious matter, she has never felt tired in the past few days. She has always taken care of this person without any regrets. If it hadn't happened last night, she probably wouldn't have done it. She realized how much thought she had put into this man so that he could recover as soon as possible.
But... despite this, she still had to leave.
And, at least for a long time, she didn't want to see Ji Xubai.
After she finished explaining what she needed to explain, she packed her baggage and planned to go find a place to live according to her previous idea. Then she would arrange the new home and then pick up Xiao Jian. Before that, let Xiao Jian It's better to live here in Jifu.
Lord Ji was shocked when he heard the news that she was leaving early in the morning. His first reaction was: "I know what I know, is that guy Xu Bai going crazy again and saying he wants to drive you away?"
"No, I want to leave on my own."
"How could it be..." Mr. Ji became anxious all of a sudden, "As I know, if you have any problems, please tell me. If Xu Bai does something wrong, I will tell him for you. Don't leave him at this time... "
Wen knew the old story but had no way to tell him about it. He could only tell him: "Master Hou, it has nothing to do with Ji Xubai. I want to leave on my own. Don't worry, I have confessed everything I need to. The servants will know how to take care of Ji Xubai, and his condition is getting better now. As long as he is willing to live well, he can do without me."
Wen Zhigu's determination to leave was there, and it could not be persuaded by Marquis Ji with just a few words. Even though Marquis Ji said many good things to her, Wen Zhigu still did not agree to the old man's stay.
When she left, she took Wen Jian to the elementary school on the way.
The little guy looked a little unhappy, but he didn't dare to say anything.
Wen Zhigu touched the little guy's head and said softly: "Xiao Jian, do you still remember what my mother told you before?"
"Remember." Wen Jian lowered her head, plucked her fingers, and replied: "Mom said that she has found a place to live, and she will take little Jian there."
Wen Zhigu said "hmm" and then said after a moment of silence: "Xiao Jian, mother is going to find a place to live now."
Wen Jian thought for a while and couldn't help but raise her head and ask her, "Mom, can I still come to see dad in the future?"
"Yes, as long as little Jane misses her father, she can visit her father at any time." However, she will not go. At least I won't be there for a while.
When Wen Jian heard Wen Zhigu's words, she felt a little comforted.

The business of the trading house has been very good recently. Xuan Jiu sent letters back and forth several times. It was only on the second day that he heard the news that Ning Chengyuan had returned to the city.
The first reaction was that he felt a little uncomfortable, because Ning Chengyuan did not come to look for him this time, but Xuan Jiu also thought that it was probably because he was too tired not long after returning from the southern border, and anyway, he came to look for him this time. Yes, Xuan Jiu thought about taking the initiative to go to Ning Mansion to find Ning Chengyuan.
After he arrived at Ning Mansion, the guards outside the mansion had already recognized him.
