Chapter 25: Romance

The next morning, after each sister had breakfast, they took a car to Zhongfu together.

The strength of Jingzhou Jiedu and Yizhou Jiedu is equal, Zhu Zhen and Zhong Yuliang are one of the few heroes in the world, and the two states are bordered, there are many contacts, they are afraid of each other, and there has never been a conflict. Back then, Zhu Zhen married Da Pang Shi, Zhong Yuliang and Pei Shi married, but Da Pang Shi and Pei Shi were friends in the boudoir, before Da Pang Shi died, the two mansions still had contacts.

Later, Xiao Pang entered the door and tried his best to erase all traces of Da Pang Zi's existence, and naturally he would no longer have contact with Pei.

Zhu Yuyan handed over the post last night, today the carriage is about to arrive, the Zhong Mansion is coming to explore, and when Zhu Yuyan arrives at the Zhong Mansion, the Pei family has already led a concubine in the house to welcome out of the second door.

Zhu Yuyan hurriedly got out of the carriage and got down, and Pei Shi came over to her and opened his arms, "Come here, I see, she really looks like your mother!" ”

Pei is over forty years old, because he has never given birth, his face does not look old, and he looks like a flower. She has beautiful eyebrows and eyes, graceful charm, and treats Zhu Yuyan close to enthusiasm, which makes Zhu Yuyan feel like seeing her mother alive.

She bowed, and Pei Shi had already pulled her up, "Good boy, don't be so polite!" ”

Zhu Yuyan got up, her eyes were red, and she became more and more pitiful.

Because he was outside, Pei didn't say much, and after Zhu Yuyi had saluted, he said, "Let's all go in, what do you say when you stand at the door?" ”

When they arrived at Pei's upper courtyard, they saw each other again, sat down, Pei introduced a few aunts in the house who had established rules to meet Zhu Yuyan's sisters, Zhu Yuyi didn't see Zhu Yuyan's Zhong Qianna, and asked, "Madam, why didn't you see Sister Wenxiu?" I heard in Jingzhou that Sister Grace is a fairy, and I wanted to meet her. ”

"She went to her uncle's house today, because her cousin is sick, and I don't know if she will come back now?"

"Shouldn't her uncle's house be Madame's maiden home? She is a concubine and gave birth to a daughter, can she still recognize her aunt's maiden family as her uncle's family? ”

Among those here, apart from Pei's, which one is not a concubine? Hearing Zhu Yuyi's words, they all lowered their heads to hide the displeasure on their faces. Pei Shi was stunned for a moment, she had never seen such a straightforward girl in her life, she was still in the boudoir, and when she saw Zhu Yuyan hearing it, it was the same as if she hadn't heard it, she also understood it in her heart, and said with a smile, "I am empty under my knees, and which one of the general's concubines is not my child, since it is my own, I will inevitably be lenient on weekdays." It's not like your mother, who has many rules and makes you laugh! ”

Zhu Yuyan said, "I have also heard the reputation of a curvaceous sister in Jingzhou for a long time, and I thought I would be able to see Aunt Pei here." ”

"What's so hard about that? She just went to take a look, and soon returned. Sit down for a while, and don't be in a hurry to leave when the day comes. ”

Zhu Yuyan had this intention, and nodded hurriedly and agreed.

Pei Shi said this, and someone went out immediately. Zhu Yuyan understood in her heart, but she was afraid that she had called someone to call Zhong Qianna back. After a while, a housekeeper's daughter-in-law came in, secretly glanced at Zhu Yuyan, and leaned into Pei's ear to say a word. ”

Zhu Yuyi was indignant, she had a concubine, and she even asked a few concubines to accompany her. However, Pei Shi said that her knees were empty, and Zhu Yuyi decided not to deal with a chicken that did not lay eggs.

When there were only his own people in the house, Pei Shi hurriedly said angrily, "You kid, you came here, why do you still bring so many gifts?" How do you want me to go? ”

Zhu Yuyan knelt down on Pei's knees, "I really have a request for Aunt Pei!" ”

Pei's face changed slightly, and the color of the red circles under his eyes faded, and Zhu Yuyan just didn't see it, "Yesterday in the city, Yuyan met a person on the street, and wanted to be rude to Yuyan, and Yuyan's friend hurt him. When I inquired, I learned that he had a relationship with Lord Zhong. After Yuyan's mother died, her eldest sister married in the capital, and she was alone for many years, with no one to teach, so she really didn't know how to deal with such a thing. It was the grandmother next to her who told Yuyan that Aunt Pei had an old relationship with her mother, so she begged to come to the door with a shy face and asked Aunt Pei for mercy. ”

Pei Shi saw her white little face, her eyebrows and eyes were more beautiful than the people in the painting, she spoke softly, although she was crying and choking, she was not in a hurry, and at a glance she knew that she was an extremely restrained person. The girl's family met street gangsters on the street, and she must have panicked, and a friend came forward to stick a knife in both sides, which should be a reassuring thing, but who knew that it was a local snake.

Pei Shi sighed and helped her up, "What should I do?" Tell me who it is. ”

"I heard that it's the cousin of my curvaceous sister's mother's family." Yuyan lowered her head, dipped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and said calmly.

The mother-in-law beside Pei's side stepped forward and reminded Pei in a low voice, "Today, Aunt He said that something happened to her mother's family, and she took the eldest girl back, and she didn't say what was going on, no wonder the eldest lady didn't know." ”

Aunt He gave birth to Zhong Yuliang's eldest son, ranking second among the aunts in the house, and in the future, the position of the envoy of this section will be inherited by the eldest son. Pei Shi is such a shrewd person, even if he tells the people around her to call her the eldest lady, it seems that he has allowed her to be called the second lady, but in fact, he is reminding the He family that she Pei will always be the biggest.

Yuyan didn't know about these twists and turns, but Pei's situation in the mansion, she had been in Xiao Dingquan's harem, and she could weigh it just by thinking about it. And Pei's family, who has no heirs, can live still in Zhong Yuliang's backyard, it is conceivable that he is also a person with great means.

Pei Shi didn't say anything, but instructed Yuyan, "Let's play here for a day today, so that your sister can get to know Graceful." ”

Yuyan proposed to go to find her sister and take a look at the garden together, she got up and wanted to take Yuyan in person. The mother-in-law next to her reminded her to add a piece of clothing, saying that it was windy today. Pei Shi entered the inner room, and the mother-in-law also went in, and after a while when she came out, Pei Shi had already changed her smiling face and asked, "Who is the friend you said helped you teach the He family?" ”

Zhu Yuyan hurriedly said respectfully, "It's the ninth master of the Xiao family." Coming out of Xiakou, this way, we were walking with the Ninth Master, and his ship was behind us. What happened yesterday, he was originally going to come over today to apologize, who would have thought that last night, Beijing came to report, the ninth master returned to Beijing in accordance with the order, and Yuyan had to come alone. ”

Yuyan saluted again, Pei Shi was busy helping her again, Yuyan said earnestly, "This matter may be a romantic affair for a man, but for Yuyan, once it is publicized, it will be a disaster." Yuyan is not afraid of life and death, but this time when she goes to Beijing, she may affect her sister. ”
