The Male Wife

Chapter 172 What to do

When Jiang Linzhi came back, Pei Cheng was on the second floor of the dim sum shop, and he didn't know what he was doing with the door closed.

The servant came over and told Jiang Linzhi that Pei Cheng didn't seem to be feeling well after he went out and came back, and stayed in the room all the time.Jiang Linzhi frowned.

Dong Lai held the freshly-cooked snacks and a piece of dried fruit from the backyard, stopped in his tracks, walked over, and said, "Madam just took Master Yanzhi to the medical center next door, Madam didn't let the servant follow in, so the servant didn't know what happened."

"What did he go to the hospital for?" Jiang Linzhi said coldly, why did he suddenly go to the hospital when he was not sick or in disaster?

"Maybe it's because I've been tired on the road for the past two days, so I don't feel well." Dong Lai handed the dried fruit snack to the servant standing beside him, and said, "I'm going to the next door medical clinic to ask what's wrong."

Jiang Linzhi waved his hand, "No need." Then, he was about to walk towards the master bedroom on the second floor.

This dim sum shop was only bought a few days ago, the servants who do odd jobs, the chef who is in charge of making pastries, the stewards who deal with customers... These are the people Jiang Linzhi specially asked to find, and they look inconspicuous , but he is extremely loyal to Wuwu Pavilion.

Since you are loyal, you can use it with confidence.

Pei Cheng was sitting on a low couch, on a hot day, with a thin quilt covering his knees, sweating on his forehead, he couldn't figure out why he was pregnant with a second child so soon, and it was still at this time.

He was a little bored, he didn't know whether the appearance of this child was right or wrong.

Five-year-old Jiang Yanzhi was already in a state of half-knowledge about certain things. He carefully gritted his teeth and leaned over. Before Pei Cheng could react, he hugged Pei Cheng's waist, raised his head, and said obediently. "Is Daddy going to give birth to a younger brother for me?" "You," Pei Cheng was startled, staring blankly at Jiang Yanzhi.

He originally thought that Jiang Yan knew or not.

"Liu Songwu's mother is pregnant with my younger brother." Jiang Yanzhi looked at Pei Cheng persistently, "His mother doesn't want him anymore, will you want me?"

"I don't need this in my stomach." Pei Cheng stroked Jiang Yanzhi's hair, and finished the remaining half of the sentence in his heart: but I can't want you.

A shy smile appeared on Jiang Yanzhi's stern face, he let go of the hand holding Pei Cheng's waist, and stepped back, "Then daddy is going to give birth to a younger brother for me?"

"Maybe it's a younger sister." Pei Cheng twitched the corner of his mouth and forced a smile.

The little guy couldn't see Pei Cheng's complicated emotions, "Can I chat with him?"

"No." Pei Cheng had an intuition that he couldn't continue talking about this topic. He picked up the little guy and put him on the side of the low couch, "Promise me not to tell your father about this beforehand, okay?"

"Daddy doesn't want younger siblings?" Jiang Yanzhi was sensitive to Pei Cheng's complicated mood.

The little guy's eyes were too clear and innocent, so Pei Cheng didn't know what to say for a while, "I haven't thought about it yet, so you promise me, don't tell your father yet."

"Okay." Jiang Yanzhi lowered his head for a moment, raised his head solemnly, and stretched out his little finger towards Pei Cheng, "I'll make a hook with you." Pei Cheng stretched out his little finger silently, and made a hook with Jiang Yanzhi.

Jiang Linzhi, who happened to hear the words "Don't tell your father..." outside, pushed the door open, looked at the big and small people in the room who were still hooking their fingers, walked in, and said, "I'm done, I'll take you out Go around.

Pei Cheng just wanted to agree, but when he thought that the "accident" in his stomach hadn't stabilized yet, he forced himself to pretend nothing had happened, and said to Jiang Linzhi, "I'm a little tired and want to rest."

Dong Lai brought in the snacks and dried fruits and placed them on the small table.

After setting things up, Donglai, who was about to leave, heard Jiang Linzhi say, "Donglai, take him to the next room and wait for me." Donglai paused, and left with the reluctant Jiang Yanzhi.

Before Jiang Yanzhi left, he still stared at Pei Cheng anxiously. He was a little afraid that his father would bully his father. After all, his father was so thin. If his father really bullied his father, his father would definitely not be able to beat the couple.

Only Pei Cheng and Jiang Linzhi were left at the door.

Jiang Linzhi came over, glanced at Pei Cheng condescendingly, and noticed that there was something wrong with the other party's expression." He walked over and said, "Why, you don't feel well? "

Pei Cheng shook his head, paused, and nodded again. Jiang Linzhi's going to the hospital must not be hidden from him, so it's better to use the plan.

"I'm a little dizzy, so I went to see the doctor." Pei Cheng met Jiang Linzhi's gaze and forced a smile. His lips were pale, and he looked very weak. "The doctor didn't prescribe medicine, but said that I was poor, so I should take a good rest." Time will be fine."

Jiang Linzhi didn't know whether he believed it or not, but he retracted the gaze that had been staring at Pei Cheng just now, and the low air pressure in the room also relaxed a lot. He pulled Pei Cheng over and let him sit on his lap On the bed, said: "The bed here is not as good as the bed at home, don't rest here, I will take you back."

Pei Cheng just wanted to nod his head and followed Jiang Linzhi's intentions, but then he realized that he hadn't looked at the dim sum shop carefully, so he said, "I haven't finished my tour yet."

"There is still a lot of time, go back and rest first." Jiang Linzhi's attitude is tough, "If you are not feeling well, you should go back and rest, don't be brave."

Worried that Jiang Linzhi would find another doctor for him, so in order to hide his secret longer and wait for Pei Cheng, he could only agree, "Okay."

Jiang Linzhi took Pei Cheng out and stepped into the carriage that had been guarding the door early.

It may be due to psychological factors, or it may be due to the exhaustion of the past few days, so not long after getting into the carriage, Pei Cheng leaned against the carriage and fell asleep. When he woke up again, he was already lying on a strange bed. Not a single person.

There were only lightly flickering candles in the room, which lit the room at an angle.

Pei Cheng covered his aching head after sleeping for a long time, lifted the quilt and got out of bed, and looked around the room.

The bed is big and comfortable, covered with a thick blanket, which is soft and comfortable. Although it is summer, I don't feel hot on the blanket. It may be because ice cubes are placed in the room to dissipate the heat.

Pei Cheng brought over his coat and put it on his body, the air-conditioning in the room was a bit chilly.

This should be Jiang Linzhi's house in the imperial capital, Pei Cheng thought after walking around the inner room.

The layout of the back room is very simple and clean, focusing on simplicity and comfort. Apart from a comfortable large desk, there are only books on one wall and a few picturesque paintings on the wall.

Pei Cheng yawned and walked out. Jiang Linzhi was sitting on a chair outside to deal with things. When he walked over, he heard Jiang Linzhi say without raising his head: "Are you hungry?"

"Well, I'm hungry." Pei Cheng said obediently.

Jiang Linzhi raised his eyes and glanced at Pei Cheng, feeling a little helpless in his eyes, "How can I sleep so well after sleeping for several hours?" Pei Cheng immediately felt guilty, his eyes were a little erratic, "Maybe it's because I've been here for a few days. I didn't rest well on the road."

Jiang Linzhi put the scrolls on the table away, stood up, walked to the door, gave a few orders to the outside, then walked in and said, "I'll finish the soup later to cool off the heat."

Pei Cheng did not refuse, the weather is hot now, drinking some soup to cool off the heat is good for the body, and he is pregnant with a child now, so he should pay more attention to these things.

Seeing Jiang Linzhi go back to deal with his affairs, Pei Cheng thought for a while, walked over, and said, "I want to go out to find someone tomorrow."

"Looking for someone?" Jiang Linzhi, who was concentrating on dealing with Wuwu Pavilion, raised his eyelids, deep in his eyes were full of deep thoughts, "Do you have any acquaintances in the emperor?"

Didn't hear the strong jealousy in the man's words, Pei Cheng picked up the shop deed of the dim sum shop on the table by himself, flipped through it, put it down again, and said, "Well, I know one."

Jiang Linzhi put the ledger in the drawer calmly, and said casually, "Really, why don't I know."

He just received a message about Pei Cheng from his subordinates today, saying that someone from the Baihou Mansion in the imperial capital was secretly investigating the relationship between Pei Cheng and the Jiang family... Jiang Linzhi's face did not change, but his heart was stirred stormy sea.

One Baihou Mansion is not enough for him to take it seriously, but if Pei Cheng secretly contacts someone in Baihou Mansion behind his back, it will make it difficult for him to calm down.

Pei Cheng didn't realize that the man was angry at the moment, so he smiled and said: "I met him a few years ago, and we have been communicating with each other in letters these years, but we haven't seen each other again. He lives in the imperial capital. , it stands to reason that I should come to meet him, so as not to be rude."

"How many years have you communicated in the letter?" Jiang Linzhi looked at Pei Cheng, "It's convenient for me to know who that person is?"

Pei Cheng was in a daze, feeling inexplicably that Jiang Linzhi might be angry, but he couldn't tell what was wrong, "Well, when I first started running the dim sum shop, I still relied on him for help, he was very kind to me, I should I'm going to visit. As for who the other party is...I haven't confirmed it yet, so it's hard to say."

"You don't know who he is, so you dare to communicate with him for several years?" The jealousy has been completely overturned, but Jiang Linzhi's face still maintains his usual calmness, but the sneer at the corner of his mouth makes him People clearly know that he is not really in a good mood at the moment.

"Are you angry? Why?" Pei Cheng frowned, "You don't think I have anything to do with him, do you?"

"Do you know who that person is?" Jiang Linzhi said simply.

Pei Cheng: "I only know that he lives in Baihou Mansion, I don't know anything else."

The anger burning in Jiang Linzhi's heart completely burned out his reason, "Since you know that he is from Baihou Mansion, why do you want to get too close to him?"

"Second Master also knows that Lord Jingjing's mansion is difficult to deal with, so why has he never been cruel to Young Master these years, and made him completely abandon his thoughts on Second Master." Pei Cheng felt displeased.

Jiang Linzhi's face froze.

Jiang Linzhi had a close relationship with Chu Jingtian, so why couldn't he communicate with his benefactor in the letter.

With a creak, the servant came in with a steaming meal, breaking the embarrassment in the room.
