My Cousin is So Weak

Chapter 40: Encountering an old friend at the Princess Mansion

Jiang Shiyuan was surprised that Cheng Dengping would appear at the princess mansion.

They didn't have many interactions with each other in their previous life. They met this person because of their second sister Jiang Shijin. He was the inconspicuous second uncle of the Jiang family. In my impression, this person has always been polite, gentle and not impatient. , he is a person with a gentle smile on his face.

Why did it seem that when I looked at him today, his face was a little more embarrassed and angry, which was very different from the person Jiang Shiyuan had in his impression.

If she hadn't suddenly seen him today, Jiang Shiyuan would have almost forgotten this person. She had never seen this person in the princess's house in her previous life. Could it be that because of her rebirth and her second sister's replacement marriage, many things and people have gone wrong? A different path?

For a moment, my mind was a little confused and confused.

Pei Zichen saw it, and some doubts flashed in his eyes. He had never seen his cousin like this since he arrived in Xijing City. Looking at her eyes, the men in front of him suddenly became a thorn in his side. Somewhat surprising.

"What's wrong? Is there anyone you know?"

Awakened by his words, Jiang Shiyuan calmed down and then spoke.

"No, I just don't know what the princess plans to do? I'm just a little curious."

"If you are curious, go in and take a look. The princess will tell you the truth."

"My cousin is quite confident."

Pei Zisu smiled and did not answer, but the determination and indifference in his eyes made Jiang Shiyuan's heart skip a beat. Most of the time he saw him recently, he always looked smiling, but in fact he It's still General Pei who is famous for his skills in Hanzhou.

For such a young and promising person, he must have some methods that are difficult for ordinary people to understand.

Thinking of this, Jiang Shiyuan sighed softly, and then entered the door of the princess's mansion with Pei Zisu. The boy in front of the door was very respectful when he saw the two of them entering, and led them there. The hidden green hall.

The scenery in front of the hall was still the same. When the two of them were sitting in front of the beautiful balcony and looking at the greenery not far away, Pei Zisu suddenly spoke.

"My aunt must have told you that my mother and siblings are coming over. Everyone in the family knows that I want to get married to you. I have fulfilled my promise to you before, and my father and clan members have agreed. Therefore, After you and I get married, you can live in Hanzhou and Xijing forever if you want."

"My cousin acted so quickly. I thought this matter would not be discussed again until after the new year."

"It's not easy to hold this beauty back in my arms. Ah Nian should know how anxious I am."

Jiang Shiyuan looked sideways at Pei Zifan, and somehow she felt a sense of oppression. However, this sense of oppression did not make her feel afraid, but she was just a little surprised. His obsession with her seemed a bit deep and powerful. .

So, when I thought about it, I asked more questions.

"Cousin, why are you so obsessed? If I hadn't agreed to this marriage, how would you have made the decision?"

After hearing this, Pei Zisu's eyes were calm, but when he looked at Jiang Shiyuan, he seemed to see many other things through her, and then he focused his eyes, condensed into a little regret and more gratitude, then he He spoke slowly.

"Some people and some things, if you miss it once, you won't want to miss it a second time. My heart will be as strong as a rock, and I won't give up until the result is what I want. So, A-Nian, you won't let it go." This is the marriage."

His determination and affection made Jiang Shiyuan a little confused about how to answer.

There was helplessness and a little distress in his eyes. Thinking of his premature death in his previous life, he suddenly felt that life was short. He stepped forward and planned to say a few words of comfort, but the appearance of Princess Qinghuan broke the atmosphere of the two chatting.

"My maid has met the princess."

"I have met the princess." When Princess Qinghuan came over, she did not notice the previous collision between the two, but instead said teasingly.

"Last time, you two were very good at avoiding suspicion, but now you are more straightforward. You are not afraid of rumors outside and just come to the house together. Why did you come here to thank me as a matchmaker?"

"Of course I have to thank the princess. If I don't have to help with the house matter, I won't be able to buy such a good house."

Pei Zisu was the first to speak, but he was calm.

"I like to hear what little General Pei said, but it's not for you. If it weren't for the fact that the bride you want to marry is A-Nian, I wouldn't want to give up my love for this house."

"Cut love?"

Hearing this, Jiang Shiyuan was slightly surprised, but he immediately knew where the house was, so he asked with uncertainty in his eyes.

"The new house my cousin bought is Ning'an Garden?"

Pei Zifeng smiled and nodded, agreeing to the matter. When Jiang Shiyuan looked at Princess Qinghuan again, his expression was no longer calm.

"The princess spent a long time building that garden. Didn't she say she wanted to move there in two years? Why did she suddenly get excited and sell it to her cousin?"

"He is anxious to get a ready-made house, but even if he buys the house, it will take at least two or three years for major construction to be completed. You can wait, but General Pei can't wait, so he came to threaten me."

"The princess is joking, how dare I threaten you?"

Princess Qinghuan laughed heartily when she heard this. A house was exchanged for a top-secret report from the pillar of the Pei family in Hanzhou. This was a good deal for her, not to mention that she also received the money for the house. , but because this matter involved other matters in the DPRK, she couldn't say much, so she followed this reason and whispered in Jiang Shiyuan's ear.

"The Pei family is really wealthy. The princess asked a high price for the house. It was good for him. He agreed directly without even saying anything back. It seemed that he smiled for the beauty. This little general Pei really spent a lot of money. No matter what.”

Jiang Shiyuan knew exactly what Ning'an Garden looked like.

The construction of many places there was originally arranged by her and Princess Qinghuan. At that time, the two of them joked that if they were not married in the future, they would live together, so there is also a hidden place in Ning'an Garden. Cuitang was completely built according to Jiang Shiyuan's preferences.

Compared with the current place in the Princess Mansion, it is more elegant and comfortable.

"Princess, doesn't this go against the rules?"

"Who dares to say no to something that my father has approved?"

"Your Majesty also knows?"

"Your little general Pei is very impeccable in his work. Now people all over the capital are asking, and no one knows about the house he built in the capital. I originally wanted to talk to my father, but it would be better for him to come to me as soon as possible. The matter was settled earlier, but I don’t know the specific reason, but he really put a lot of thought into this marriage, A-Nian.”

Princess Qinghuan's words made Jiang Shiyuan suddenly understand what he had just said. Indeed, as long as it was what he wanted, he would get what he wanted in the end, which was in line with his temper.

It's just that this kind of domineering attitude of doing everything first and leaving no way for others to fall back has to be changed. Thinking of his early death, Jiang Shiyuan felt the need to have a serious talk with him.
