The Male Wife

On the way back, Pei Cheng wanted to say something countless times, but when the words came to his lips, when Pei Cheng and he saw the indifference on Jiang Linzhi's face, he silently closed his mouth again .

Because of his low mood, when Pei Chengzai didn't notice Jiang Yanzhi's weirdness, he glanced at the freshly heated food on the table and said, "Have you eaten yet?"

The servant was almost scared to death just now, heard the words, and hurriedly said: "Master Yan Zhi must wait until the second master and his wife come back before he is willing to eat, and the slave also persuaded him, but Master Yan Zhi just refused to eat, so the slave has no choice. "

The maid in the house echoed the servants.

Pei Cheng glanced at Jiang Yanzhi, who slowly stood up from the small chair, walked to the chair that was taller than him, and then stretched out his hand towards Pei Cheng.

The domestic servant was very good at winking. Seeing that Pei Cheng's face was not good-looking, he hurried over, carefully picked up Jiang Yanzhi, put him on the chair and sat down, and then graciously picked up the bowls and chopsticks, and served soup and rice.

Jiang Linzhi glanced at the room, took off the cloak with a lot of snowflakes, turned and entered the back room.

Pei Cheng's gaze was attracted by Jiang Linzhi. After the other party entered the back room, he retracted his gaze, then looked at Jiang Yanzhi who was already eating obediently with his head down, took a pair of clean chopsticks to pick up food for him, and said: " Why don't you eat first? Don't wait for us to come back"

It may be because he seldom sits at the same table with his elders to eat, so even if Pei Cheng knows some necessary dining etiquette at the dinner table, he doesn't take these things seriously.

Jiang Yanzhi ate with his head down, chewed the food in his mouth in small mouthfuls, and said sullenly after swallowing: "No."

Knowing that the little guy was stubborn in some places, Pei Cheng didn't demand anything strongly from him, and after hearing this, he patted his head again, and the irritability in his heart gradually disappeared.

"I'll give you a new year's money when I go back." Pei Cheng may be in a better mood, so he leaned forward and whispered in Jiang Yanzhi's ear, "I didn't bring any money with me last night, so I didn't prepare it for you. I'll go back later I'll give you a big red envelope, are you happy?"

Maybe it's because he doesn't have a big concept of money, or maybe he doesn't care about these extraneous things at all, Jiang Yanzhi just nodded obediently following Pei Cheng's words.

After not eating much, Jiang Yanzhi put down the bowl and chopsticks.

Pei Cheng frowned, a little surprised. Although Jiang Yanzhi's appetite was not very large during this period, it had increased a lot since he just moved out of the side courtyard, and according to Pei Cheng's understanding of the little guy's appetite, he Should be able to finish a whole bowl of white rice.

But now Jiang Yanzhi just took a few bites and refused to touch it again.

Pei Cheng frowned, looked at Jiang Yanzhi carefully, saw that his face was much paler than what he saw before going out, thought he was not feeling well, so he stretched out his hand and touched the little boy. The guy's forehead was normal except that it was a little cold. Jiang Yanzhi looked at Pei Cheng and said dryly, "Daddy, I'm sleepy."

"Then go back and rest." Pei Cheng picked up the little guy, took the thick cloak handed over by the servant, and covered them both, before turning around and leaving, he took a deep look at the direction of the inner room without looking back. leave.

After Donglai finished handling the matter at hand, when he walked in, he found that Pei Cheng and Jiang Yanzhi were no longer in the room. His eyelids twitched, thinking of what happened at the wonton stall just now, he signaled that he was still packing up the dishes The servant speeded up, and then walked cautiously towards the back room.

Jiang Linzhi changed into a new set of clothes, and was leaning on the bed with a book in his hand. When Donglai walked in, he said without raising his head, "Going back?"

Dong Lai lit the candles in the back room, and said respectfully: "Well, when the servant just came in, the madam had already returned with Master Yanzhi."

Jiang Linzhi froze his hands as he turned the pages of the book, but did not speak.

Dong Lai glanced at Jiang Linzhi worriedly, and thought that his second master's temperament did not seem to please his wife.

Xiyuan.

Qiu Yi was wearing thin clothes, just kneeling in the cold and heavy snow, she was a fragile girl after all, so she fainted in the snow after kneeling for a long time, and didn't get up for a long time.

But when the news of Qiuyi fainted in the snow reached Hu Xiayun's ears, Hu Xiayun didn't take it seriously and sneered, "It's just a little girl who doesn't have long eyes, even if she really freezes to death , then this is also her life, let her continue to kneel."

The servant who ran to tell Hu Xiayun about this matter came back and said that the servants and maids who had been watching the excitement immediately booed, and then dispersed to get busy with their own affairs.

The servant who secretly delivered the medicine package to Qiuyi before did not leave. He gritted his teeth and thought that Qiuyi was punished by Hu Xiayun to kneel in the snow in the backyard of Xiyuan, and Uncle Jiang just happened to be in Xiyuan to accompany the old lady. If he went directly to Uncle Jiang to talk about it right now, he didn't know if the other party would help Qiuyi for the sake of their one-night husband and wife.

After thinking about it, the servant gritted his teeth and stomped his feet for the last time, and decided to run to talk to Uncle Jiang.

Uncle Jiang was playing chess with the old lady at that time, and the servant didn't have the guts to ask Uncle Jiang to go out to chat with him, let alone let the old lady avoid it, so he could only bite the bullet and knelt down and said, "Please, old lady!" Save the villain's life!"

Both the old lady and Uncle Jiang were taken aback.

While trembling with fear, the domestic servant told about Qiuyi still kneeling on the snowy ground in the backyard of Xiyuan.

"Madam, please save Qiuyi, Mrs. Jiang, no matter what, she is still a girl, if she kneels like this again, her whole body will be completely ruined." The servant said with tears in his eyes.

The old lady was a little surprised, "I said at first why the autumn clothes disappeared, so it was punished by Hu Xiayun. What mistake did she make to make Hu Xiayun so angry?"

No matter how mischievous Uncle Jiang was outside, he was still ashamed to speak in front of the old lady. He clenched his fist with one hand and coughed softly on his lips.

The old lady still doesn't understand what this means, she frowned and said: "It's okay for Hu Xiayun to mess around, but now it's Chinese New Year, if someone dies in the family, the luck of the family will be in danger for the next year." affected."

At first, Uncle Jiang thought that Hu Xiayun would not do anything to Qiuyi, but after hearing what the servant said, he couldn't help being dissatisfied with Hu Xiayun's increasingly excessive behavior, and said: "Hu Xiayun has indeed become more and more excessive in the past two years. "

"People have fainted, why don't you hurry up and ask the doctor to save him, if this New Year's day really kills people..." The old lady said displeased: "Since we have all been husband and wife, after that Just let her live in the small courtyard in Xiyuan, and give her the status of a concubine."

Uncle Jiang already had a lot of women outside, and he also had a lot of concubines at home, not too many more autumn clothes, and not less than one less autumn clothes, and the Jiang family was not short of this kind of food, so Uncle Jiang has no objection either.

The domestic servant kneeling on the ground did not expect things to go so smoothly, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly kowtowed to thank: "Thank you for your kindness, old lady, thank you for your great kindness, this servant is here to thank Qiuyi Madam, thank you sir."

The old lady narrowed her eyes, "Qiuyi is almost freezing to death in the snow, and no one else came to intercede, why did you come here alone to intercede?"

The servant calmly said, "Qiuyi and I are cousins. When we were young, we both entered Jiang's family together, so our relationship is naturally better."

Uncle Jiang waved his hand, he was too lazy to listen to the relationship between these people, and said, "Didn't you say that people are dying, why don't you hurry up and drag them into the house."

The servant agreed, bowed his waist and left.

And when Hu Xiayun learned that the old lady directly arranged Qiuyi as one of the many concubines of Uncle Jiang, he immediately smashed everything that could be smashed in the room, and rumors continued to spread in the room. The sound of crackling porcelain bowls and teacups shattered. When the old lady heard the news, she clasped her hands together and muttered: "Susui is safe, Suisui is safe, young people are ignorant, alas!"

But having said that, the old lady's eyes were full of disgust for Hu Xiayun's ignorance.

Could it be that Hu Xiayun can't even forget who is the mistress of the Jiang family now, and acts so arrogantly!

Uncle Jiang also felt that Hu Xiayun punished people to kneel down and threw things angrily on the first day of the new year. These things really didn't look like the actions of a famous lady.

The old lady lowered her eyes and tried: "This Hu Xiayun has acted more and more outrageously in the past two years. I think I should teach her again in the next year, otherwise the Jiang family will not be able to gain a foothold in Huacheng in the future because of her."

Uncle Jiang didn't speak, he picked up his teacup, took a sip of tea, and his attitude was acquiesced.

East Court.

Pei Cheng wrapped a few copper plates in red paper for Jiang Yanzhi, Jiang Yanzhi took it and thanked him in a low voice, but said nothing else.

At first, Pei Cheng thought he didn't like it, but after moving to the new home, Pei Cheng went to Jiang Yanzhi's room to look for the little guy one day, but he couldn't find it, but found these copper plates under the little guy's pillow.

It was also at that time that Pei Cheng knew that Jiang Yanzhi's temper was so full of enthusiasm that he followed Jiang Linzhi's. He liked to hide everything and kept Jiang Yanzhi drooping his head, feeling uncomfortable all over.When he and Qi'er were fighting in the snow just now, his clothes were actually all wet, but he only knew how to change his outer clothes, not his inner clothes, so Jiang Yan knew that the inner clothes he was wearing now were still wet , making him very uncomfortable.

When Pei Cheng heard that Jiang Yanzhi wanted to take a bath in broad daylight, although he didn't understand it, he thought about it and said, "Erxi, go prepare hot water." Erxi ran out to prepare hot water.

Pei Cheng found an excuse and ran out, but Jiang Yan didn't know why.

After Pei Cheng came back, the hot water was ready, so Pei Cheng greeted the servants and closed the door.

Jiang Yanzhi felt that something was wrong in vain.

There was a smile on the corner of Pei Cheng's mouth, but his tone was rare and severe, he said sharply, "Take off your clothes."
