Chapter 110: The Feast of Confession (4)
The maids still don't know the truth. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
In fact, Doudou and Pei Jinxin haven't seen each other for nearly two years.
The day of Gu Ge's birthday banquet the year before last was the last time the two met.
Doudou has been very busy since he returned to Beijing last year, and Pei Jinxin is also very busy.
One was busy recognizing relatives, and the other was busy showing love to Fu Shaoyun, although they were nominal cousins and good friends, they didn't even take a picture.
Doudou didn't want to see Pei Jinxin.
No matter how generous she is, when she sees someone who occupies her own name, her relatives, and the daughter of an "enemy", she will be a little congested.
Pei Jinxin didn't want to see Doudou either.
No matter how she doesn't care, she can't face her sweetheart, not to mention that now it's not just her sweetheart, everything she has belongs to the girl opposite.
In the past two years, the girls in the cardamom years have changed a lot.
Doudou is more beautiful than before, and Pei Jinxin has actually grown up, but recently he has become extremely haggard, and the lines on his face have become more and more cold and hard.
Sure enough, it was the same as Queen Pei, Doudou couldn't help muttering to himself.
Although it was night, the light was a little dim, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for the two to stand facing each other.
Doudou moved his lips, wanting to say hello to Pei Jinxin indiscriminately, in fact, he just wanted to break the dullness.
Only a hurried footstep was heard, and a slender figure appeared behind Pei Jinxin.
Doudou looked up and saw that it was a white peony.
This maid is also loyal, she used to help the lord of Ruijia fight, but now that the lord of the county has fallen, she is still so diligent.
Bai Shao saw that her own girl and the second girl of Yuan were facing each other, and hurriedly gave Doudou a big gift, so she panted and pulled Pei Jinxin and said, "Girl, let's go back!"
She is about to die, and now that the girl is down, the status of these maids who are waiting with her in the Hou Mansion has also plummeted, how dare she confront the lady's biological daughter.
It's all to blame on the second prince!
His own girl is obviously staying in the house, and he wants to let people spread the word to let the girl come out to meet.
That's it, anyway, he is always the girl's cousin, and with his care, the girl's life can be a little better.
But the second prince clearly came to the Hou Mansion early in the morning, why did he wait until the evening to come to see the girl, why did he go early?
Now that the girl has met the second girl, who knows what terrible things will happen.
Pei Jinxin gently shook off Bai Shao's hand, looked at Doudou and said, "Yuanyuan, I have something to tell you." ”
Whether it was in the past or wanted to be there, Doudou never felt that he and Pei Jinxin had anything to say.
It's a pity that I don't want to, but I have to agree.
In the past, due to the other party's noble status, as long as she didn't want to attract attention, she had to perfunctory Pei Jinxin.
Now that the other party's noble identity is gone, if she doesn't want to be eye-catching, she still has to perfunctory her.
People are contradictory, not only worship the high and the low, but also easily sympathize with the weak.
The people who used to think that she was befriending the lord of Ruijia will now all sympathize with Pei Jinxin.
Once Pei Jinxin makes a fuss, people will only say that they are taking revenge on her and bullying her.
Doudou smiled faintly: "Say it." ”
Pei Jinxin pointed to a pavilion a hundred feet away and said, "Let's go over there and say, don't let people follow." ”
Doudou frowned, what is this trying to do?
Seeing that she didn't mean to leave, Pei Jinxin bit her lip and said, "Are you afraid that I will beat you?"
Doudou sneered, this girl is really enough.
Such an inferior method of agitation is too embarrassing to use it.
Well, she admits that the agitation really works.
In terms of fighting, Pei Jinxin is naturally not an opponent, but her lentils don't want to have a reputation for bullying and revenge on the day of the confession banquet.
She instructed Cai Qing and the others, "You wait here." ”
Ignoring Pei Jinxin, he took a lantern from a mother-in-law's hand, and walked towards the pavilion with long legs.
Doudou hung the lantern on the branch next to the pavilion and turned his head to look at Pei Jinxin: "If you have something to say, hurry up." ”
Pei Jinxin gathered the cloak on his body and said, "Yuanyuan, I heard that you don't want to be the county lord, and you don't want to change your surname Pei?"
Doudou's brows squeezed together stretched, this girl is quite well-informed.
At the confession banquet in the outer courtyard, Lao Weiyuan announced in front of the noble and high-ranking officials that she was the second concubine of the Hou Mansion, but in order not to forget the nurturing grace of the Jingnan Hou Mansion, let her continue to be surnamed Yuan.
Of course, this was not the original intention of the Pei family, but since she was unwilling to change her surname, Lao Wei Yuanhou could achieve the best effect by publicly announcing it like this.
It can not only make the Marquis of Jingnan feel warm, but also show His Majesty the Emperor that the Pei family is not eager to win over the Huo family, and that he does not covet the position of the prince, which can be described as the best of both worlds.
Even she heard this news from Diancui, but she didn't expect Pei Jinxin to already know.
But when she thought about it, there was nothing strange about it.
Yu Wenheng was very comfortable in and out of the Weiyuan Marquis's Mansion, presumably he had already seen Pei Jinxin.
She smiled: "That's right, I've never liked to be restrained, and I don't know the rules, the county lord or something is still exempt, as for the surname, the surname Yuan or the surname Pei Chong?"
Pei Jinxin smiled bitterly: "That's true, whether your surname is Pei or your surname is Yuan, you are the pearl of your hand held in the palm of your hand, as for the title of county lord, I have been the county lord of Ruijia for more than ten years, and what did I get in the end?"
Doudou felt that she was really empathetic, and Pei Jinxin could understand the meaning of these two sentences casually.
Indeed, if Pei Jinxin didn't have the title of Lord Ruijia, she would not have been so "famous" all these years.
There are more arrogant girls in the capital, and no one's reputation is as loud as that of the lord of Ruijia.
With a resounding name, no matter what action there is, it will be infinitely magnified, and good things will not be mentioned, and once there is something wrong with the behavior, it will quickly spread thousands of miles away.
Pei Jinxin hasn't actually done anything bad over the years, but his reputation is already stinky.
But these are not enough to make Doudou sympathize with Pei Jinxin.
There are not many county lords with titles in the Great Zhou Dynasty, but they are not few, how come others have not fallen into such a reputation?
Even if it is Yuwen Siqing, except for a few insiders, who would know that she is actually a woman dressed in the garb of a noble girl****** to put it bluntly, or Pei Jinxin is not good enough, what is the matter with the title of county lord?
As for saying that he is a pearl in the palm of his hand, this statement is even more ridiculous.
Who in this world is born to be liked unconditionally?
It's just a biological parent, if you want to be really loved by someone who is not related by blood, how can you not want to pay at all?
It's not that grandmothers and fathers don't love me purely.
But no matter how kind their hearts are, and then they adopt her in the face of their mother, if she is ignorant and disobedient, and they don't really treat them as their relatives all these years, how can they really hold themselves in the palm of their hands and love them?
Doudou said: "Pei Jinxin, don't you feel ashamed to say such things? Whether it's your father or mother, or even His Majesty the Emperor, who of them hasn't really loved you all these years?"
Pei Jinxin muttered: "What are you talking about in the past, but what about in the future?"
