Chapter 1079 Halfway up the Tree, I Heard My Name

After Ji Feng was silent all the way, he stood at the ferry, looking at the two-story giant ship approaching from far away on the coastline, and said to Liu Wei beside him: "There is something I have never asked you about. Who is traveling with you on the same road? And the young man who lost Xiaobing once seems to have not been seen for a while?"

Ji Feng was talking about Liu Moyi.

Liu Wei didn't quite remember Ji Feng and Liu Mo having met before. Of course, Liu Mo had been at the Yamen in those two days, so maybe he met Ji Feng by chance.

However, since Liu Mo was alone, Liu Wei didn't think Ji Feng would recognize anything.

After all, there were many differences in appearance between Mo Yi and her. Although they were siblings, their looks were indeed very different.

"Are you looking for him?" Liu Wei asked tentatively.

Ji Feng lowered his eyes and said, "He is a member of our Ji family just like you."

"Mr. Bu Lao, don't worry anymore. You need to know that I still want to talk to you, but for Ji Bing's sake. The reason why I like this kid is precisely because, like me, he is not like you." The Ji family, his mother's surname is Yue, even though we are related to you, the Ji family has long been estranged. Because of him, I am willing to tell you the whereabouts of the jade pendant, so I hope that you, the Ji family, can also take care of yourself."

Ji Feng knew that Liu Wei had no good impression of the Ji family because of his previous unpleasant experiences. Although he still remembered the young man in his heart, looking at Liu Wei's expression, Ji Feng really couldn't say anything more.

At this time, a distant ship had entered the port.

After the boat stopped, passengers came off one after another.

Ji Bing stood far away at the harbor, searching among the passengers disembarking with bright eyes. It was not until the crowd began to dwindle that he saw a rough man with a beard at the end.

"Uncle Xing!" Ji Bing stretched his neck and raised his hands, trying to make Ji Xing, who was dressed in disguise, see him.

Ji Xing indeed saw him, not only saw him, but also saw Ji Feng and Liu Wei standing some distance away.

He was stunned for a moment, and it wasn't until the person behind him bumped into him that Ji Xing came to his senses and walked forward. He walked up to Ji Bing, held the child's hand, and walked with the child to Liu Wei.

"Long time no see." Liu Wei said hello calmly.

Ji Xing said nothing and just nodded to her as a greeting.

Liu Wei didn't care either. The last time she saw him in Guyong Mansion, she knew that Ji Xing was not a talkative person.

When we went back, we also took a carriage, but this time, Ji Feng and Ji Bing sat in the carriage, while Liu Wei and Ji Xing sat on the shaft outside.

The coachman was driven to the rear of the car.

Ji Xing had been to Qingzhou before and was familiar with the roads. He took the reins of the horse and drove seriously, looking straight ahead.

"Why don't you ask me what I want to say?"

Liu Wei tilted her head to look at Ji Xing, but when their eyes were about to meet, Ji Xing looked away again.

Ji Xing looked into the distance and said in a cold voice: "They are very good."

Liu Wei smiled, leaned her back against the car wall, and narrowed her eyes: "How good is that?"

"I only punished them by facing the wall." Ji Xing was talking about Ji Cha and Ji Jin. He was the one who took the two sisters back that day. Although Liu Wei didn't say anything when they left, it was obvious that Liu Wei was still a little worried.

After all, Ji Cha and Ji Jin broke the family rules and came to her to fulfill her grandmother's wish.

"anything else?"

Ji Cha, Ji Jin, and Liu Wei are concerned, but Liu Wei is far less concerned about the other person who is still in the Ji family. Is it exactly the same as the modern one?

Ji Xing paused for a moment, then pursed his lips and said, "She's also very good."

Liu Wei said: "You know, people are actually very interesting. For example, when people lie, they will deliberately avoid the main position. This is a subconscious mind of self-preservation and self-persuasion. For example, I want to ask you to go to a teahouse today. If you don't want to go when we get together, maybe the reason you have thought of is that your wife at home needs you to rush back immediately. Then you will tell me, "She wants me to go back," instead of "so and so, so and so wants me to go back." The omission of the subject position is an extremely unconfident self-expression. Just like just now, you know that I asked whether my grandmother is well. According to the identity of my grandmother, you should call your grandmother your cousin. If your grandmother is really good, , you would say, 'My cousin is very good' instead of 'she', so, Brother Ji, you lied, tell me, why?"

In terms of identifying authenticity, Liu Wei always has his own method.

Even though Ji Xing knew that he couldn't lie in front of this woman, he still didn't expect that he would be seen through as soon as he opened his mouth.

After exhaling, Ji Xing did not avoid Liu Wei's gaze this time. Instead, he looked straight at her and said seriously: "I don't have a wife."

Liu Wei: "...I'm not asking you this."

Ji Xing frowned and said, "Your grandmother is indeed not good."

"What happened?" After finding his mother and Mo, his grandmother in Lingzhou became Liu Wei's last concern.

In other words, it is the concern and longing for modern grandmothers.

"sick."

"What disease?"

"memory."

Liu Wei didn't understand.

Ji Xing explained: "One day your grandmother woke up and started looking for your grandfather. She hugged Ji Wei and called your mother's name."

"You mean...my grandmother can't remember people?" Liu Wei was a little stunned, and a disease flashed in her mind, Alzheimer's disease, also commonly known as Alzheimer's disease.

"It's not that I don't remember it at all." Ji Xing said, "It's just that it seems that I have forgotten the experience of these decades. Your grandmother's memory stopped at the year your grandfather left home."

Alzheimer's disease is a common neurological degenerative disease in the elderly. Patients' daily living abilities will gradually decline. They cannot recognize their spouses, children, dress, and eat, and some have auditory hallucinations.

Ancient people aged at an early age, and there were countless elderly people suffering from this disease. Liu Wei was not surprised that her grandmother also suffered from this disease, but at the same time, she still felt very sad when she knew about it.

Ji Xing saw her serious expression and comforted her softly: "Ji Cha and Ji Jin are taking care of your grandmother. It's okay."

At this time, the Yamen also arrived.

The carriage stopped, and Ji Feng and Ji Bing walked out of the carriage.

Liu Wei couldn't say anything anymore and just watched the three people enter the Yamen without looking back.

Ji Xing has arrived. After discussing with Ji Feng, the two decided to make a quick decision and set off for Kyoto early tomorrow morning.

Ji Bing took advantage of the night and climbed up the tree to steal the white orchid spider.

Ji Bing and the others were arranged in the guest room of the Yamen, but the Qingzhou Mansion Yamen was not a very big Yamen, and the distance between guest rooms was only a few steps away.

Ji Feng and Ji Xing were in the same room today. The two were talking in the room. Ji Bing was climbing a tree outside. The branches of the big tree were spread wide. When Ji Bing was halfway up, he heard the conversation in Ji Feng's room.

He didn't pay attention at first. The child was only interested in the white orchid spider on the top of the tree, but he was surprised to hear his name.

"Xiao Bing's father is really dead?"
