Early the next morning, Mother Feng gave Qiao Rui a thick bundle of thirty banknotes. "Ma'am, my husband asked me to transfer this money to you. He said it was your pocket money. I was afraid that it would be inconvenient for you to use a check, so I asked Fang Mo to get you cash overnight."

"Then he's really thoughtful!" Qiao Rui took the money, glanced at it, and said immediately, feeling rather heavy, "Thank you Mama Feng."

Feng's mother shook her head, "Madam, you are welcome."

After Qiao Rui took it, she took out two stacks and gave it to Mama Feng: "This is for you and Uncle Feng. I'm new here, so please take care of me if I don't understand."

"Oh, this is absolutely unacceptable." Feng's mother said: "This is what Lao Feng and I should do. Madam, you don't have to be polite to us."

"Feng Ma, I'm not being polite to you, just treat it as me buying gifts for you." Qiao Rui still insisted on giving Feng Ma the money.

Mama Feng couldn't help it, she just said: "Ma'am, sir will be angry if he finds out."

"Then don't tell him." Qiao Rui said: "He said he would give me 30 a month, and how I spend it has nothing to do with him."

She smiled slightly, turned around and went upstairs with the rest of the money.

Mama Feng watched Qiao Rui go upstairs in surprise, thinking that this girl is so strong.

28 cash, most young ladies can't carry it, but she is fine, it's as easy as holding a book.

The lady is so strong.

Mama Feng later told Pei Liyan about it.

Pei Liyan was surprised when he heard this, but he still said, "Since she gave it to you, you can accept it."

"Sir, is this appropriate?"

"She's right. I've given it to her. I don't care how she spends it."

"Yes!" Mama Feng didn't say anything more.

Qiao Rui took the money back into the room, but she didn't come out.

Mama Feng called her downstairs to have breakfast.

Qiao Rui came down and found herself alone, so she asked, "Is Mr. Pei not there?"

"Mr. has gone to the company."

"Got it." Qiao Rui felt much relieved.

Eating alone is delicious.

Just after eating, I was about to stroll around in the villa yard to get familiar with the familiar environment, when I saw a car entering the villa.

Then, Feng's mother came from afar and reported to her: "Madam, the old man is here and said he wants to see you."

"Master Pei?" Qiao Rui asked.

Mama Feng nodded. "Yeah, but you'll have to call me Grandpa with sir."

The old man of the Pei family came early in the morning, and he chose to come when Pei Liyan was leaving. He wanted to say something to him alone.

Qiao Rui felt that Mr. Qiao might not be a good person.

Sure enough, when she returned to the living room and saw the majestic old man sitting on the sofa, she couldn't help being surprised.

The last time I was in the banquet hall, I only had a quick glimpse of the old man's face, but now that I looked closely, the old man must have been a handsome man when he was young.

Even though he is nearly seventy years old, he still maintains a thin and tall body, with a short and hard beard, a pair of brown and black eyes sunken deep in the eye sockets, a few white hairs in his hair, and sharp facial features, which can be vaguely seen Pei Liyan's shadow.

The old man's gaze was very sharp, with a strong sense of oppression, which was hard to ignore.

Qiao Rui stood in front of the old man, letting the old man look at him with probing eyes.

The more the old man looked at it, the more he frowned, because the disgust in his bones was so obvious.

Qiao Rui is also very smart, so she can tell that the old man is not so polite when he looks at her.

She didn't speak, and let the old man look at her calmly.

Mr. Pei looked at Qiao Rui for a while, and felt that this girl had a little courage, that she dared to face his sharp gaze without changing her face.

But when he thought of his best grandson being bullied by such a girl, he was still a little bit unwilling and unconvinced.

The old man calmed himself down a little, and said in a deep voice, "You are Qiao Rui?"

"Yes, Mr. Pei, I'm Qiao Rui." Qiao Rui said calmly, "We should have met in the banquet hall that day."

Mr. Pei was taken aback. Did this girl imply that she had a bad memory?

He half-closed his eyes and said in a cold voice, "Do I need your reminder?"

Qiao Rui: "I'm afraid you'd forget!"

"I have a good memory, I don't need you to remind me."

"Oh, I see, Mr. Pei." Qiao Rui thought to herself, this old man has a lot to do.

Mr. Pei glanced at her, and said again: "Didn't you get the license from Li Yan, why didn't you call me Grandpa?"

"Actually, I know that you don't like to recognize me in your heart." Qiao Rui smiled indifferently: "Anyway, sooner or later you will have to get a divorce, so I won't make you unhappy."

Hearing the word divorce, the dowry old man's face darkened, and he said in a deep voice: "No one in our Pei family dares to mention the word divorce in front of me."

Qiao Rui was taken aback, but she didn't expect the old man of the Pei family to be so powerful.

She pursed her lips and said, "I'm sorry, I was the one to be abrupt."

"Hmph!" The old man snorted coldly: "You are sober in the world, and you know that Pei Liyan chose you not because he liked you, but couldn't you persist in rejecting him at that time?"

Qiao Rui raised her eyes and met the displeased gaze of the old man. The old man's eyes were sharp and vicissitudes, and he looked like someone who had experienced too many hardships and baptisms in life.

In front of him, there are some things, don't be smart.

Qiao Rui didn't answer and asked instead: "Didn't Mr. Pei ask Mr. Pei to choose a new wife that night? I thought Mr. Pei had acquiesced."

"Heh! You are eloquent." Old Master Pei glanced at Qiao Rui's face again. The face was too ordinary, and the shape of the face was not bad, but there was really nothing to recommend about it.

The more Mr. Pei watched, the more irritable he became. He knew that his grandson was angry with him, but he couldn't lose his life's happiness.

Qiao Rui said indifferently: "Old Man Pei is absurd."

Mr. Pei gasped: "When did I praise you?"

Qiao Rui didn't take it seriously. "Oh, then what do you mean that what you just said is not a compliment?"

Mr. Pei was taken aback by the question, and said coldly, "What do you care about me?"

Qiao Rui was stunned for a moment, and murmured: "Are all the old men in the city so unreasonable?"

Mr. Pei looked at her, "You say I'm unreasonable?"

That's right!

Out of basic politeness, Qiao Rui forbears it, and suppresses her sharpness a lot, not to be as knowledgeable as the old people. "No, Qiao Rui dare not."

"Don't you dare?" Mr. Pei snorted coldly: "I think you are quite courageous."

Qiao Rui said again: "Thank you, Grandpa Pei, for your compliment."

"I'm not praising you!"

Qiao Rui showed a ignorant expression, as if she was watching a vexatious old man with dementia.

"Put away that expression of yours." The old man growled angrily.

For a while, the atmosphere was a little awkward.

Qiao Rui asked back, "Do I have an expression?"

Mama Feng happened to serve tea again, so she naturally heard part of the conversation, and glanced at the old man worriedly.

The old man couldn't keep his face from being refuted by Qiao Rui, so he couldn't help but said in a deep voice: "Okay, okay, tell me first, what did that kid Pei Liyan agree with you?"

"Sorry, you should ask Pei Liyan." Qiao Rui said, "I promised him to keep it a secret."
