Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Past

There were several carriages parked in front of the gate of Pei's mansion, and Master Pei placed Mrs. Pei and her son in the carriage at the front. The housekeeper of Pei Mansion commanded the strong men in the mansion to go back and forth from Pei Mansion to a carriage loaded with luggage and belongings.

After settling Mrs. Pei and her son, Master Pei handed a large bag of silver to the housekeeper along with the deed of sale.

"Now give this bag of silver to the servants and maids in the house, and let them find their own way out."

The housekeeper of Pei Mansion took a moment and still took the silver.

When the last box was about to be loaded onto the carriage, the housekeeper of Pei Mansion hurriedly came to restore his life.

"Master, why did you dismiss all your subordinates? Aren't you, Madame, and Young Master coming back? โ€

Master Pei smiled slightly, "Yuexi Country is far away from Liguo, we don't know when we will come back this time, so it's better to make arrangements first." He took out another bag of silver and handed it to the butler, "Take this silver, so that you can go home and retire." โ€

"The old slave is waiting at home, and if you come back, the old slave will still come to serve." The housekeeper of Pei Mansion was very reluctant to cry.

Master Pei patted the butler's shoulder with relief, took out the lock, and locked the door of Pei's mansion with a "click".

Pei Muyun saw all this in his eyes, he turned around and asked Mrs. Pei worriedly: "Mother, won't we come back in the future?" โ€

Mrs. Pei patted his hand gently and said, "Your grandfather is sick, and I am afraid that I will have to stay a little longer to visit his old man this time, so your father has this arrangement." Mrs. Pei pinched the tip of Pei Muyun's nose, "Haven't you always been looking forward to meeting your grandfather, who has never met!" โ€

Pei Muyun looked a little lost, and muttered: "But I haven't said goodbye to Xi'er yet!" โ€

"Silly boy, you can write a letter to Xi'er!" Mrs. Pei reminded.

"Brother Mu!" A sweet and slightly childish girl's voice came from not far away, interrupting the conversation between Pei's mother and son. The owner of the voice was followed by a majestic man in his forties.

Pei Muyun heard the familiar voice in the carriage and sat up from the carriage. He reached out and lifted the curtain of the carriage and poked his head out.

"Xi'er, I'm here." Pei Muyun waved his hand and shouted at the place where the girl's voice came from, and Master Pei also turned around when he heard the voice.

It was the Marquis of Zhongyi and his daughter Li Weixi.

"Brother Li, didn't you go to the palace?" Master Pei greeted him with a smile on his face.

I heard that it was the Marquis of Zhongyi, and Mrs. Pei in the carriage wanted to get off the carriage to give a salute.

"Younger siblings don't need to see each other." After Zhongyi Hou stopped Mrs. Pei, he turned his face to Master Pei and said, "As soon as I returned to the house, I heard from the housekeeper that the subordinates of the virtuous brother's mansion had come and said that you had something important to leave Beijing today, so I came in a hurry." โ€

"Xi'er is here too!" Master Pei touched his head dotingly.

Zhongyi Hou said with a smile: "When the housekeeper and I reported to me, Xi'er was also there, this girl, as soon as I heard that you were leaving, I pestered me to take her to see you off." โ€

"Xi'er, come to Aunt Mei quickly." Mrs. Pei has always been the most loving, more than her son.

Pei Muyun stopped Mrs. Pei, "Mother, don't rob me of my child!" We're leaving, let me talk to Xi'er alone for a while. โ€

As he spoke, Pei Muyun jumped out of the carriage and pulled Li Weixi aside, ignoring the snickering of the adults present.

"Xi'er, it's good to see you again before leaving!" Pei Muyun was very happy about Li Weixi's sudden appearance.

But in the face of this little brother who has always loved her and wants to leave, Li Wei regretted that she was sad and reluctant, "Brother Mu, where are you going and when will you come back?" โ€

"My grandfather is sick, and it may take a long time to visit him this time." Pei Muyun was infected by Li Weixi's emotions, and his heart was also very low in the face of this separation.

Li didn't hesitate to flash his big eyes and asked, "How long is it?" As a young girl, she had no idea about "for a long time".

In fact, Pei Muyun didn't know when he would come back. Faced with Li Weixi's questioning, he had an idea, and said, "When you grow up, I'll come back." โ€

"I'm afraid you won't recognize me?" Li Weixi looked very worried, "I heard my father say that people's appearance changes with age. โ€

"No, it won't!" Pei Muyun comforted: "As long as you keep wearing the night glass, I will always wear the moon Linglong, so I won't be afraid of not knowing each other." โ€

"Hmm." Li nodded obediently.

Looking at Li Weixi's innocent eyes, Pei Muyun sighed, and said in a mature tone that did not belong to his age: "What I'm most worried about now is who will protect you after I leave." After all, your father is away from home all the year round and rarely returns to Beijing. If your stepmother bullies you, who will stand up for you? "Pei Muyun is how old Li is not sorry, and the questions he thinks about are more practical than Li Weixi.

"Brother Mu, you don't know yet!" Li Weixi's immature face was full of pride, "My father's return to Beijing this time is to be recalled by order, the emperor remembered that my father was loyal to the country, and repeatedly made military exploits, and allowed my father to stay in the capital, and he didn't have to personally lead troops to the expedition in the future!" โ€

That's great! Pei Muyun also felt happy for Li from the bottom of his heart. But she was also faintly lost, and her father protected her in the future, and her departure seemed insignificant.

"Brother Mu, what's wrong with you?" In the face of Pei Muyun's sudden silence, Li Weixi looked very inexplicable.

"I ยทยทยทยทยทยท"

"Mu'er, it's time for us to go." Master Pei's voice interrupted their conversation.

Pei Muyun looked at Li Weixi and said reluctantly: "Xi'er, I'm leaving." โ€

"Brother Mu, this is for you." Li didn't hesitate to struggle for a long time, and finally decided to stuff the things in his hand to Pei Muyun.

Pei Muyun spread out his palm and saw that it was a purse with exquisite materials and rough workmanship. The two sides of the purse were crookedly embroidered with the words "Mu" and "Xi", and he knew that the words on the front and back sides represented the two of them.

"This is what I learned from the embroidery girl a while ago, and this is the first time I have done it, so I didn't do it very well. I was going to say I'll give it to you when I make a beautiful one later. Unexpectedly, you were suddenly leaving, so I gave this purse to you as a thought. โ€

"Thank you, Xi'er." Looking at Li Wei, who was a little embarrassed, Pei Muyun was very moved. He carefully placed his purse into the placket as if it were a treasure, closest to his heart.

Under the repeated urging of Master Pei, Pei Muyun got into the carriage step by step. As soon as the coachman whipped his whip, the horses began to unleash their hooves, and the carriage moved slowly.

Watching the carriage drift away, the young Li didn't hesitate to feel the fact that her brother Mu was about to leave her. She couldn't help shouting behind the carriage: "Brother Mu, don't forget me when you get there, remember to write to me." โ€

"Xi'er, wait for me! I will come back and marry you. Pei Muyun, who always poked his head out of the carriage and looked back, blurted out.

The speed of the carriage became faster and faster, and the figure of Li Weixi gradually blurred and gradually disappeared. At this point, Pei Muyun slowly retracted his head back into the carriage, but his hand touched the purse in his heart and never let go.

Pei Muyun pulled his thoughts back and reached out to take out the purse from his arms. The purse that he has never left for ten years, the purse that has long been yellowed and faded, the purse that he did not hesitate to embroider by hand. The sentence "Xi'er, wait for me!" I will come back and marry you" Pei Muyun never forget. Now that things are people, he has never blamed Li Weihe, and he can only blame fate for making people.

When they left the country of Yuexi with their family, they suddenly encountered a group of gangsters when they were about to arrive in the country of Li. caused Pei Muyun's parents to die on the spot, if it weren't for a wandering monk, I am afraid that he would have already become a lonely ghost. The monk took him to a temple on the mountain, took him as an apprentice, taught him martial arts, and raised him as an adult. Over the years, Pei Muyun never dared to mention revenge in front of his master, just because whenever he mentioned it, he would always be reprimanded by his master and punished him for copying scriptures. But Pei Muyun has never forgotten the hatred of killing his father and mother for a moment in his heart, and he has never forgotten Li Weixi.

A few years ago, Pei Muyun's master traveled west in a crane, and he took care of the master's aftermath, and then went down the mountain to embark on the road of revenge. After many investigations, he was able to find the bandit leader of the year, and the bandit leader gave everything he knew in order to survive. Back then, the bandit leader attacked Pei Muyun's family, not for money but for employment, and the only requirement of the people who hired them was to divide Pei's husband and wife and their young son. The rest of the cadres are not allowed to leave a single living mouth. At this point, Pei Muyun learned that things were far more complicated than he imagined. Although the fate of these gangsters can be imagined, the identity of the person behind them and their true purpose are not known, and they only know that the other party has an inconspicuous characteristic. Even if he learned this, Pei Muyun was at a loss.

Since then, Pei Muyun has made his home all over the world. While working as a bounty hunter, he is looking around for news. It's just that there is a vast sea of people, and it's not easy to find someone who doesn't even know his general appearance and age.

Recently, Pei Muyun got the news again that the Lu family brothers seemed to know some inside information, so he returned to Yuexi Country again, and it took several twists and turns to make some friendships with the Lu family brothers. Even so, he never set foot in the capital. First, it is not easy to expose oneself outside the city, and it is not easy for others to follow them. Second, he was afraid that he would not hesitate to go to find a strong one.

At the beginning, Pei Muyun learned that Li Wei had become demented a few years ago, so he wanted to take her with him as soon as possible and no longer let her be hurt in any way. But he immediately dispelled this idea, just because he was carrying a sea of blood and hatred, and if he took Li Wei with him, she would only be hurt. Rather than this, it is better to let her stay in the Zhongyi Marquis Mansion for the time being, at least her life is worry-free.

Now it seems that this decision was wrong, and it forcibly ripped off the red line between him and Li Weixi. However, Pei Muyun does not intend to give up. Let's see that tonight's relationship with Zhao Qingcheng is not a beautiful couple, and the gestures are very rusty. In Pei Muyun's opinion, the two of them did not have the deep affection that newlywed Yan'er should have, and they didn't even seem to have done the least respectful of each other. This puzzled him! Also, why did the dementia suddenly get better? This is also a big question in his mind.

At this moment, Pei Muyun's mind was full of a smile. He took a deep breath and put the purse in his hand back into his arms again.

"The revenge has not been avenged, why do children love each other!" He reminded himself.

Pei Muyun packed up his mood and planned a trip to Lufu tomorrow.
