The Peasant Wife: The Prime Minister's Beloved

In order to eliminate Xie Tianyi's negative impression of her, Mo Shiyu decided to bring gifts to apologize.

The gift was carefully selected by her from Su Ji Dessert Shop.

These desserts have been quite popular in her social circle recently, and many sisters are competing to buy them.

She tasted it herself and found it to be delicious.

Mo Shiyu didn't know that Su's Dessert was actually one of Chen Xi's businesses.

After all, the opening of several new Su's dessert shops in the county town in recent months made her mistakenly believe that Chen Xi could not have such a business acumen.

In her opinion, Chen Xi was just a country girl, how could she create such exquisite and delicious pastries.

Instructing the servants to carry the carefully prepared gifts, Mo Shiyu set out again for the Chen Mansion.

Last time, she was arrogant; this time, she decided to speak softly, hoping to save something.

Inside the Chen residence, Jiang Da reported to Xie Tianyi the news that Mo Shiyu was coming to visit again.

After hearing this, Xie Tianyi calmly told Jiang Da not to open the door.

He really didn't have the extra time and energy to deal with the unreasonable behavior of the eldest daughter of the Liu family.

Instead of wasting time, it would be better to read a few more pages of books, or accompany Xiaoyang and Xiaochen, or think about how to win Chen Xi's favor. Those are more practical and meaningful things.

Thinking of the last point, Xie Tianyi's face involuntarily flushed with an imperceptible blush, like peach blossoms in the early morning light, with a bit of shyness and gentleness.

Fortunately, Jiang Da has already stepped out of the door, and the lively and lovely twins at home, Xiaoyang and Xiaochen, have also entered their sweet nap time, so no one can see his rare tenderness.

In the clinic, Chen Xi was concentrating on taking the pulse of a patient. Her fingers rested lightly on the patient's wrist, as if she could capture the subtle rhythm of life.

Suddenly, she sneezed twice, her small nostrils trembled slightly, and a hint of doubt flashed in her eyes.

There is a saying among the people: the first is cursing, the second is missing someone, and the third is catching a cold.

Chen Xi thought to himself, is there really someone missing me? No, no, the weather has turned cooler recently, this might be a sign of a cold, I need to put on an extra layer of clothes when I go back home at night.

With this thought, she immediately collected her thoughts and refocused on the patient in front of her. With determination and concentration in her bright eyes, she continued her mission as a doctor.

"No? How is that possible? Go tell Master Xie that I am here to apologize sincerely."

Mo Shiyu dressed up carefully and wore gorgeous clothes. She wanted to appear in front of Xie Tianyi in the most beautiful posture, but she never expected that she couldn't even see him.

Jiang Da stood at the door and responded calmly but firmly: "This is the order of our young master. Please understand and go back."

Mo Shiyu frowned slightly and retorted in disbelief: "I don't believe it. You must have been instructed by Chen Xi to deliberately prevent me from entering. I want to see Xie Tianyi and explain everything to him in person!"

She rushed forward regardless of everything. Although Jiang Da was a warrior, he could not use force to stop her because she was a woman, so he could only try his best to block her.

"Ms. Mo, identity and gender cannot be used as a reason to act arbitrarily. No one can enter here without the permission of the young master."

Jiang Da held the door handle tightly, refusing to budge, like a guardian god.

"You guys, come on, open the door!"

Mo Shiyu turned around and gave orders to the servants who were accompanying them.

Jiang Da was unable to resist the crowd's shove alone. Just when he felt overwhelmed, Xie Tianyi's steady and magnetic voice sounded at the right time, like the first ray of warm sunshine in spring, "Open the door."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Da stepped aside to make way, and the door of the house opened. Mo Shiyu glanced at Jiang Da coldly and walked into the courtyard with a majesty that could not be ignored.

"Mr. Xie, regarding what happened this morning, I was indeed not thoughtful enough. I made rash assertions without knowing the truth. I did not realize that you had already drawn a clear line between yourself and those two people. I have come here to express my sincerest apologies to you."

There was a hint of barely perceptible regret in Mo Shiyu's words.

Xie Tianyi smiled calmly, his eyes not lingering on Mo Shiyu for too long, "Ms. Mo, there is no need to come all the way here to apologize, I don't take it to heart."

He originally planned to visit Chen Xi at the clinic to see if he needed any help, but he was interrupted by Mo Shiyu's slightly arrogant voice as soon as he arrived at the door. Xie Tianyi couldn't help but feel a little unhappy.

"Thank you, Master. This is a dessert I specially selected. It tastes great. The store often sells out in half a day. Would your children like to have a taste?"

Seeing that direct communication failed, Mo Shiyu turned to try to open a gap through Xie Tianyi's two young sons.

"Miss Mo, you should enjoy these desserts by yourself. My children are still young and should not eat too much sweets."

Xie Tianyi refused gently but firmly.

"Master Xie, this dessert is sweet but not greasy, why don't you try it yourself?"

Faced with Mo Shiyu's repeated persuasion, Xie Tianyi just smiled faintly and ignored her.

For him, if he really wanted to taste it, it would be easy to do so. Why did Mo Shiyu have to be so deliberate?

"I have no interest in this kind of food, and I don't need your kindness or apology. Please go back."

Xie Tianyi's tone revealed an unquestionable determination.

"Mr. Xie, what happened this morning was not my intention. Please stop being angry, okay?"

Mo Shiyu seemed to want to salvage something.

"Ms. Mo, you are too kind. I am not upset about this matter, so why should I be angry? If the noise outside had not disturbed my peace, I would not have let you in."

There was a hint of coldness in Xie Tianyi's tone.

"Xie Tianyi, you've really gone too far! I've already humbled myself and apologized, what else do you want?"

There was a hint of anger in Mo Shiyu's voice.

"Hmph, lower yourself? Miss Mo is probably overestimating herself. Jiang Da, show the guest away."

Xie Tianyi snorted coldly, and Jiang Da on the side immediately bowed and signaled Mo Shiyu to leave.

Mo Shiyu has always been determined to achieve her goal, but under the gaze of so many servants, she could only suppress her reluctance and leave in disappointment.

After going through all these twists and turns, Xie Tianyi had no intention of going out. He returned to the house, flipping through the book in his hand while paying close attention to the two little ones, enjoying this rare tranquility.

And inside the prosperous palace, in Mo Shiyu's boudoir, there was another crisp sound of porcelain breaking, which seemed to tell the dissatisfaction and resentment in the owner's heart.

"Doctor! Doctor! Please help me take a look at my grandson!"

An anxious-looking woman, holding a child in her arms, almost rushed into the door of the clinic.

"What's wrong with the child?"

Chen Xi stood up quickly, his eyes full of concern.

"Doctor, look, there are many worms in the child's eyes."

The woman's eyes were full of fear and helplessness.

"What should I do? If his parents knew about this, they would definitely blame me for not taking good care of their precious grandson."
