Chapter 99: Could it be his childhood sweetheart?
Pei Daozhu said softly: "Sister-in-law, what are these words?" After the divorce was originally withdrawn, Brother Rong turned around and got engaged to his cousin, and I got along with Jiu Ye after a year. If you talk about affection, I can't match Brother Rong. ”
Aunt Chen choked.
Not to mention anything else, just a "sister-in-law" made her ashamed and annoyed.
After all, Pei Daozhu was engaged to her son, so what's the matter with calling her "sister-in-law" now?!
She remembered that when Pei Daozhu came to visit her, she called "aunt" one by one, looking filial and easy to handle, which looked like today's prickly head!
Gu Yanwan saw that her future aunt was angry, so she took the initiative to relieve her: "Ananda just passed the door, why should you be in a hurry to embarrass your aunt?" Now that we are a family, the family should be harmonious, and the grievances of the past should be written off, right? ”
Bae Daozhu smiled.
These words sounded as if she was deliberately retaliating against Aunt Chen.
She was right: "I have never taken the grievances of the past to heart. Today's dispute is also the reason why she brought it up first. ”
Gu Yanwan shook the fan lightly: "Is Ananda accusing my aunt?" It's all your own family, so why do you need to distinguish between right and wrong? After all, you are a junior, so why not let your aunt have some? Home and everything is prosperous, this is the truth. ”
She has an elegant posture and teaches Pei Daozhu in an inexplicably noble tone.
In her eyes, Pei Daozhu is a concubine.
And she is the granddaughter-in-law of the Xiao family who is about to marry Ming Media.
She was naturally qualified to teach her.
Pei Daozhu refused to be wronged.
I was wronged on the first day I entered the door, and I will definitely be wronged even more in the future.
She looked at Xiao Heng, and her beautiful Danfeng eyes were sad.
It's like a young beast that has been bullied outside, seeking the protection of its parents.
Xiao Heng refused to let her be wronged.
His woman, he himself has never been reprimanded, what is the matter of being reprimanded by outsiders?
He raised his eyes: "Miss Gu hasn't married yet, so she has a 'family member', I don't know, I thought you couldn't wait to marry in." Besides, Ananda is a generation older than you, and you should not make it again in the future. ”
Gu Yanwan: "......?!" ”
She squeezed the handle of the fan, and her fingertips turned white because she was pushing too hard.
She bit her lower lip in embarrassment.
She couldn't believe that the Ninth Master would lose her face for a concubine.
Isn't her Gu Yanwan's identity more noble than Pei Daozhu's concubine?
Xiao Heng wrote lightly: "Cousins or something, it's all before I left the cabinet." If Miss Gu sees herself as the Xiao family, she should be called Aunt Ananda. ”
Little Auntie......
Gu Yanwan seemed to have swallowed a stone, and she panicked.
Pei Daozhu is obviously her cousin, why did she become her little aunt?
That's how she can open her mouth!
Being stared at by everyone, she lowered her eyes and had to whisper yes.
Old Madam Xiao saw their open and secret battles in her eyes.
She was amazed.
She whispered to Mama Jiang: "I thought that Jiulang was a person who didn't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, but now it seems that he clearly understands." ”
Mama Jiang laughed: "How can there be a Lang Jun in the world who doesn't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade?" At the end of the day, I just don't like it enough. Miss Pei is both beautiful and beautiful, and she also gave birth to a seven-trick heart, the old slave looked, our ninth master was afraid that it would be planted on her. ”
Old Madam Xiao looked pleased.
Xiao family, I'm sorry for Xiao Heng for a lifetime.
If you can find a confidant for him, it can be regarded as a little compensation.
……
After coming out of the old lady's yard.
Pei Daozhu followed Xiao Heng and walked back.
She now sees him as a tool that can be used, and her resentment is not as big as before, and the most important thing now is to ease the relationship, and the second is to capture his heart.
She played with the folding fan and said softly, "You're quite short." ”
Xiao Heng's voice was faint: "Hitting a dog depends on the owner." ”
Pei Daozhu choked.
Who are the dogs?
This guy looks at the light wind and Jiyue is very pleasing to the girls, but in fact, he can talk to death.
Back in Wangbeiju, Xiao Heng wanted to go to the study to deal with business.
Pei Daozhu is also idle.
In the afternoon, she simply cooked by herself and made a few plates of pastries.
She also served two pots of carefully cooked new tea, put them in a rosewood openwork food box, and sent them to Xiao Heng.
Xiao Heng's study was very large, and he and his staff were discussing in the inner room.
Bae Daozhu has no stage fright.
She went in and generously put the food box on the table: "I'm afraid that all the adults will be hungry, so I specially made some pastries for you." ”
When you open the food box, the pastry looks delicate and delicious, and the portion is sufficient.
Several staff members looked at each other with satisfied expressions.
A while ago, an Aunt Cui also came over to deliver refreshments, but she gave them to her master alone and did not prepare their share.
This Pei girl is different, she actually took them into account.
It can be seen that the action is thoughtful and meticulous.
Only a woman who knows the general situation in this way is worthy of staying by her master's side.
Xiao Heng picked up a piece of pastry and took a small bite.
He doesn't like sweets on weekdays, but the pastries made by Pei Daozhu are sweet but not greasy, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, which melts in the mouth, which is more delicious than the palace dining room.
I had long heard Pei Maozhi mention that she had excellent cooking skills, and she didn't disappoint him.
He is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and his cooking skills are also excellent.
What else is there in this world that this woman doesn't know?
Bae Daozhu took in their subtle expressions and always maintained a gentle and reserved smile.
To envelop a Langjun, it is better to start with the people around him.
After all, it is these right-hand men who have been in contact with him for the longest time.
After the Son of Heaven is established, he still needs to consult the ministers, and Xiao Heng is an important minister, isn't it the same?
If she wants to ascend to the throne, she must first conquer his staff.
After delivering the refreshments, she didn't continue to disturb them and consciously exited the inner room.
There were no servant maids or servants in the outer study.
She held the food box and hesitated for a moment, but her eyes still fell on Xiao Heng's bookcase.
She remembered the first time she went to Xiao Mansion, there was a wooden box on Xiao Heng's bookcase, and there was a scroll of portraits hidden in the wooden box, and she was taken away by Xiao Heng before she could unfold it and take a closer look.
The wooden box......
I don't know if he brought it to Jinliang Garden?
Pei Daozhu thought and approached the bookcase lightly.
After a moment's search, she found the wooden box under the bookcase.
Curious, she carefully opened the wooden box and picked up the scroll.
The scroll is a few years old, and the paper is yellowed and brittle.
As the scroll unfolded, a six or seven-year-old girl jumped onto the page.
She sat on the white stone in the depths of the mountain temple, looking back and looking at her delicate expression, the pines and cypresses and white cranes around her added a bit of fairy energy, and the shawl on her arm swayed in the wind, like a little god girl.
On the picture scroll, the inscription is repeated two words -
Dongzhu.
He inscribed it over and over again, and the handwriting was so strong that it seemed to memorize the name, as if to engrave it deeply in his heart.
Pei Daozhu held the picture scroll in his hand and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Who is Dongzhu?
Could it be Xiao Heng's childhood sweetheart?
But she hadn't heard that there was a girl named Dongzhu in Jiankang City.

Good night
