Chapter 10 Introduction
Chen Peiyao had a smile on his face.
It is the opposite of the past, and the softness of the spring breeze is like a breeze.
He already has a good-looking feminine face, and when there is a smile on his face, the phoenix eyes are slightly narrowed, which makes people's hearts itch.
Tang Jiao was a little distracted.
As if sensing her momentary stunnedness, Chen Peiyao returned to his usual indifferent demeanor.
He raised his feet and walked in the direction of the Tang Mansion, Tang Jiao looked at his back and couldn't help but pull the corners of his mouth.
In fact, Chen Peiyao is not as terrible as she thinks.
What about the first assistant of the cabinet in the future? Now he has to lie dormant in the Tang Mansion.
She took Tang Bufan's hand and quickly followed Chen Peiyao's footsteps and walked side by side with him.
"Why didn't my brother take Mo Tong with him?"
"Not used to it."
"Let's take it with you in the future, in case something like last time and today's thing happens, my brother will also have someone to take care of."
Chen Peiyao looked at her smiling appearance, and suddenly asked, "You have never been so attentive to me before." ”
When she first came to Tang's house, although Tang Jiao didn't show obvious rejection of him, she never took the initiative to talk to him, let alone show concern for him like today.
It seems to have changed since the last time I found out that the decoction had been poisoned.
Tang Jiao still smiled, "I didn't know anything before, but we are a family, so we naturally have to be more attentive to my brother." ”
"What if we're not family?"
When he said this suddenly, Tang Jiao was stunned for a moment.
Chen Peiyao: What does this mean?
"Brother is joking, we are a family."
Chen Peiyao pursed his lips slightly.
Yes, the kind premise from the little fox is that he is her family.
But one day she found out that these were all fake, and she was afraid that these kindnesses would become the spearhead against him.
There are some subtle ups and downs in the mood.
The three of them went back to Tang's house, and when they went to the backyard, they happened to meet the Zhou family who came out of Ming's courtyard.
"Second aunt." Tang Jiao and Tang Bufan saluted, and Chen Peiyao next to him just nodded coldly as a greeting.
Zhou looked at the three of them and snorted coldly, "The three of you brothers and sisters are close. ”
"Naturally, the second aunt didn't say that we are brother and sister, so naturally we have to get close." Tang Jiao had a smirk on the corner of her mouth.
Zhou knew that he couldn't say anything about Tang Jiao, so he rolled his eyes and left, scolding as if he was still saying "Let's see" and "See how arrogant you are".
Seeing her like this, Tang Jiao knew that she was not well-intentioned.
didn't continue to walk to her yard, let Tang Bufan and Chen Peiyao go back first, and she entered the Ming courtyard.
Ming was about to go to her, and when he saw her come in, he didn't give her a good face.
"Bufan is back?"
"I'm back," Tang Jiao poured her a cup of tea and asked with a smile, "Mother, what did the second aunt come over to tell you?" When I met her outside, she didn't give me a good face, and scolded me for being a white-eyed wolf. ”
"Scolding you for being wronged?" Ming glanced at her, "Your second aunt just came over and wanted to tell you about a family matter." ”
Tang Jiao's action of drinking tea paused.
Marriage?
Just like in the previous life, the Zhou family still wanted to destroy her in this way.
"Whose son-in-law are you talking about?" Tang Jiao asked.
"It's not a son, it's a distant relative of hers, who is also studying in the academy, although the family is poor, but the child is motivated, and he may not be able to get fame in the future."
Tang Jiao's hand holding the cup loosened a little.
Not that person.
"It seems that my mother also thinks it is good."
"Yes, my mother will ask you what you mean, and if you agree, my mother will let people inquire."
Ming looked at her expectantly, and Tang Jiao was tired for a while.
"Marriage matters, where did I do the master, my mother should discuss it with my father."
With Tang Jiude's mercenary person, her marriage contract can only be used to exchange benefits for the Tang family.
Poor students?
Tang Jiude was the first to disagree.
At dinner that day, Ming brought up the matter at the dinner table.
Tang Jiao was eating the meal casually, and she didn't see Chen Peiyao, who was separated by a position, holding chopsticks and glancing at her.
"What do you think, sir?" Ming asked Tang Jiude.
Tang Jiude hesitated for a moment, Tang Jiao felt that he would be stern against it the next moment, but he heard him say: "Scholar, it's okay, change Ming'er, you let people inquire about it." ”
Tang Jiao couldn't calm down, "Dad, didn't you say that you want your daughter to marry into a big family in Fucheng?" Why do you show your daughter a poor student now? ”
"What do you know, what about big families? It is nothing in front of the official, and now that the imperial examination is implemented, a scholar has the opportunity to be an official, and it is better to be a scholar. ”
Tang Jiao lost her appetite, thinking that it would be best to inquire about that student carefully and grasp the handle or something.
But I heard Chen Peiyao suddenly open his mouth and asked: "I don't know what this brother is called, if he wants to come to know me in the academy." ”
The students in the academy are all going to take the children's exam next year, and there are only about 20 people in total, and it is quite clear to inquire about one person.
Ming glanced at Chen Peiyao before he said, "My brother and sister said that the surname is Qi, and his name is Qi Tycoon." ”
"Qi? Some of my classmates do have the surname Qi, but they are not called Qi tycoons. ”
"No way, you must have misremembered," Ming retorted, "I'll have someone inquire tomorrow." ”
She obviously didn't believe Chen Peiyao.
Tang Jiude handed over this matter to the Ming family, obviously not planning to interfere.
After the meal, Tang Jiao took a slow step and deliberately waited for Chen Peiyao to come over.
"Brother, you really don't have a student named Qi Tycoon in your academy?"
Chen Peiyao didn't seem to be in a good mood, "What are you lying to do?" ”
didn't wait for her, turned around and left, Tang Jiao wasted some effort to keep up.
"Thank you, brother."
"You're welcome, I didn't help either," After walking out a few steps, Chen Peiyao suddenly stopped, looked back at the little face that was not very clear in the night, and said, "There is indeed no student named Qi Tycoon in the academy, but there is a handyman named Qi Tycoon." ”
Tang Jiao was stunned for a moment, "Why didn't my brother say it at the dinner table?" ”
If he said it, Tang Jiude would definitely not agree at that time.
"It has nothing to do with me."
Tang Jiao's heart was sudden.
Chen Peiyao: What's wrong?
It was fine before, but all of a sudden what's going on?
The sky was too dark, and there was some distance, Tang Jiao couldn't really see his expression, raised her feet and walked to him, but Chen Peiyao turned his face sideways.
"Brother, did what your mother said make you angry?"
She was a little cautious.
After knowing his future identity and status, no one will do anything to offend him again.
Tang Jiao didn't want the Ming family to appear in Chen Peiyao's grudge book.
Chen Peiyao did not answer.
He wasn't angry.
Just now he said the truth.
Tang Jiao's affairs have nothing to do with him, after all, he wants to become a stranger, and he doesn't need to help her.
On the contrary, the closer she became, the stronger her so-called affection for him, and the more disgusted she became when she learned his identity.
A voice in his heart told him that it wasn't what he wanted to see.
"Brother?"
Tang Jiao came up to her and looked at people seriously with her big eyes, just like the pleasing little fox cub.
No matter how indifferent a person is, he can't stand this softness.
Chen Peiyao sighed helplessly, as if he had compromised with that contradictory self.
"Just ...... Madame won't believe me even if I say this, so I'll let Madam find out for herself. ”
Chen Peiyao didn't say much, but Tang Jiao thought of what to do.
Maybe this is a good opportunity for my mother to see Zhou's face clearly!
"Thank you, brother! I knew you were good to me. ”
Chen Peiyao's eyes fell on her face, thinking, why are her eyes so bright?
"Are you really thankful or are you fake polite?"
It's really this little fox who can pretend to be too good, with a smile on his face, and he doesn't know what to think in his heart.
"Naturally, I'm really grateful."
Chen Peiyao snorted.
Trust her for now.
