Chapter 109: Back to Pei's House (3)
The Pei family's house is quite Chinese-style, typical of the Yecheng style, with verandahs and pavilions, but there is no traditional carving of beams and columns, but the lines are simple but very fine. Min Xili was taken by Pei Rui, and for the first time he had the concept that the Pei family was a big family. The servants nodded to them along the way, and Min Xili felt as if he had strayed into some kind of time-traveling drama, and he could act directly after changing into a palace costume.
After walking for about ten minutes, Min Xili couldn't help but ask, "Pei Rui, how big is your house?"
Pei Rui looked at it: "It's too big, I don't know, maybe it's more appropriate to ask my second sister this question, she has to run around the house for more than an hour every morning." β
"What's wrong?" asked Pei Rui.
"It's nothing, I'm just wondering, are you a child with fine clothes and food, you don't need to do anything. So why would you move out of your house and you can cook, which surprised me. Min Xili thought that he had no talent for cooking, and he ate very casually, so he could make a simple living.
Pei Rui knew that she was just thinking that she was rich in the Phoenix Mountain Villa, and now that she has entered this mansion, she may have understood what kind of existence the Pei family is.
"It's because you don't have to do anything that you need to move out of here. There is nothing difficult about cooking, a must-have life skill for ordinary people. Pei Rui said a little sadly: "After my mother died, I was really depressed to stay in this house, she said before she died, I only want to be a normal couple with my father, but my father has too little time to accompany her after marriage, and she also has to attend various parties she doesn't like for the complicated affairs of the family, so at that time I was thinking, if I have a wife in the future, I will definitely let her be herself." β
Min Xili looked at him, not knowing what to say. It seems that Pei Rui has been planning his life since then, and even his wife's life after marriage has been thought about, if it is not himself, even if it is anyone in the world, marrying Pei Rui should be happy.
Min Xili felt a warm current flowing in her heart, and the security she had been seeking turned out to be nothing more than the man next to her.
"Why don't you speak?" Pei Rui asked her with a smile when he saw that she was quiet.
Min Xili was led by her, leaned her head lightly on his arm, and it took a long time to organize the language: "I'm just lamenting my good luck, how did I meet you." β
"It's my luck that many people will never meet someone they love in their lifetime. Pei Rui touched her hair, feeling that he could give her everything he could, hoping that she would go well.
But I didn't say it to her in front of her, sometimes it was too big a promise, and I always felt insincere after saying it.
Uncle Ao followed behind them, listening to them chatting and bowing his head and smiling, he had seen too much love and marriage of Lan Yinsu, even if it was Master Pei and Mrs., that kind of love was not as perfect as it seemed to outsiders, and it was estimated that Pei Rui also had such thoughts.
"I haven't come back for too long, I used to think that Phoenix Mountain was empty, but now when I go back to the old house, I feel that Phoenix Mountain is too small. Uncle Ao said.
Min Xili turned around and asked him, "Uncle Ao, I have a little question that I am curious about. β
"What?"
"Why did you want to leave with Pei Rui? Wouldn't it be better to be a majestic butler here?"
"The gentleman wanted to leave the house at that time, but the eldest lady and the master did not agree, and I was forced to give it to him by the master. Otherwise, I don't think my husband would want an old man like me to accompany him. Uncle Ao smiled and helped Pei Rui ask Min Xili: "Do you like this house?"
Min Xili glanced at Pei Rui and didn't tell a lie: "I don't like it very much, the garden is big and complicated, if I want to find him one day, it will be like playing hide and seek." β
Pei Rui just smiled: "Don't worry, since I moved out, I won't move back." The eldest sister may ask you this in a while, just tell the truth. β
"Yes. Good. β
Finally arrived at the Pei family's study, and it was actually a bit polite to say that it was a study, because it was not an exaggeration to say that it was a library building. Pei Rui handed the two new books to the person who took care of them at the door, and the man said, "I'll go and spread the word." β
After the report was ready, Pei Rui, Min Xili and Uncle Ao went upstairs. Min Xili was shocked by such red tape in his heart, thinking about what age this matter was, and his son would have to spread it when he saw his father.
I understand better why Pei Rui moved to the Phoenix Mountain Villa, if he wants to find him, he can see him by opening the door directly.
The two followed the maid to push the door in, and at the door, Min Xili smelled a fragrance of Dandan, light and fluttering, like laurel. As soon as he opened the door, Min Xili saw a row of big osmanthus trees outside the window, and the windows were open, and the smell was very strong.
An old gentleman sat on a soft sofa, and Uncle Ao bowed to him. The old gentleman glanced at Pei Rui and said, "I'm back." β
"Yes. β
And Min Xili glanced at the old gentleman, and found that he looked too similar to Pei Rui, although he was old, but the coldness on his body had not diminished at all, and he looked serious and difficult to approach.
And sitting next to him was Pei Kite, who was wearing a purple cheongsam and had hair shorter than the Admiral.
Before coming to Pei's house again, everyone seemed to be telling Min Xili what a powerful character Pei Yuan was, she was a little older and well-maintained, although she looked very gentle in her dress, she didn't smile, her eyebrows were thin, she was more heroic than Pei Yunyin, and more decisive than Pei Rui.
"Presumably this is Miss Min. Pei Yuan said, her voice did not hear a trace of waves and emotions, neither enthusiastic nor cold.
Pei Rui shouted, "Dad, eldest sister." This is my fiancΓ©e, Min Xili. β
Min Xili was worried, for fear that Old Man Pei and Pei Yuan would let her get out in the next second, so she greeted her stubbornly: "Uncle, eldest sister is good." β
The subordinates had already laid out the tea, and Master Pei smiled suddenly: "Come on, come on, don't stand." I heard that you have lived in Phoenix Mountain for a long time, and this bastard boy will not let us see it, and now you have finally brought it back. β
Then he touched Pei Kite with his elbow: "Laugh at one! Don't scare people." β
Min Xili didn't expect that the meeting, which was serious and terrible a second ago, would be relaxed because of Master Pei's words. I saw Pei Yuan tugging the corners of her mouth, and she wanted to laugh, but she tilted her head and sneezed. And then the face is even more unsightly.
Uncle Ao hurriedly got up and closed the window: "It's October, although it's not too cold, but the temperature is capricious, so take care of the lord and the eldest lady." β
"I'm fine. Pei Yuan's tone was tough.
Min Xili saw Pei Yuan gently touch her nose, and the tip of her nose was still a little red, this symptom seemed to be a bit similar to when Admiral was allergic to pollen: "Is the eldest sister allergic to pollen?"
Uncle Ao knew that the master must have forgotten that Pei Yuan couldn't smell too much of pollen and other things, so he usually didn't come to the study in the east. However, Pei Yuan has always had a pain or something, and she will not tell others that such a small thing as pollen allergy is even more insignificant to her.
