The Male Wife

Early the next morning, the Jiang family in Hwaseong began to get busy, making preparations for the upcoming wedding of Jiang Lixun, the head of the Jiang family, to welcome guests.

I heard that there will be many dignitaries and guests coming to the Jiang family today, and the servants will face the guests with a hundred times more energy, lest they will be beaten to death by the master if there is any mistake.

And the Hu family who also received the invitation.After the Patriarch of the Hu family got up early, he ate breakfast slowly, and then glanced at Jiang Qier who got up and left without even saying hello after breakfast, frowned, and said displeasedly: "I don't know how Hu Xiayun taught Yes, they don't even have the most basic etiquette."

Mrs. Hu wiped her mouth, "When the parents were still there, Hu Xiayun hadn't entered the prison, and Hu Xiayun and Jiang Qier were extremely arrogant, but now that the parents are gone, and Hu Xiayun is gone, there is no one for Jiang Qier. Qi'er backed him up, although he no longer acts high-profile, but he still has the temperament that he was raised from a young age."

The head of the Hu family and Mrs. Hu are Hu Xiayun's elder brother and sister-in-law.

It's just that after Xiao Yao'er, who has always been favored, passed away, her child was in her natal family, so naturally she wouldn't get much attention.Even if you get attention, it is negative attention.

Jiang Qi'er knew that his uncle and aunt didn't like him, so he tried his best not to buy from his uncle and aunt during this time, but even so, the other party still didn't like him.After a long time, Jiang Qier no longer pretended to be a filial and thoughtful child in front of these two people, and no one cared about what to eat and play.

It's just that life is still not easy.

Patriarch Hu sneered, he naturally disdained Mrs. Hu's previous remarks, but after a long time, he still had some small thoughts in his heart, Patriarch Hu said: "Today is Jiang Lixun's wedding day, let the servants see Take care of Jiang Qi'er. The old lady Jiang sent her to our Hu family just because she wanted to see Jiang Lixun spend this big wedding day well."

"Master, do you really intend to remain indifferent to Jiang Lixun's remarriage? Our relationship with the Jiang family cannot really be broken just because of Hu Xiayun's death. After all, we sometimes have to deal with the Jiang family for business matters. I'm involved." Mrs. Hu saw the matter very carefully, and she also had her own precautions.

The head of the Hu family didn't want to discuss this kind of thing at this time. He put down the bowl and chopsticks, picked up the teacup, took a sip, and spat it out again, "Xia Yun is the eldest daughter of our Hu family after all. She has an accident, and the Hu family has nothing to do. If you continue to communicate with the Jiang family as if nothing happened, what will happen to the reputation of the Hu family in Huacheng in the future."

After all, Mrs. Hu is a woman, and she has always obeyed Patriarch Hu's words. Hearing the words, she sensed that Patriarch Hu was angry, so she put on a flattering smile on her face, and turned the matter over without a trace. Never mention it again.

Patriarch Hu, who was still displeased at first, soon turned for the better.

At the same time, when Jiang Qier returned to her small courtyard, she saw a servant in a gray gown standing in the courtyard where she had been alone all this time. He walked over and walked away, After keeping an absolute distance, he said, "Who are you?"

"Master."

The servant in the gray gown turned around with an ordinary face, as if he couldn't find it in the crowd.

Master?

Ah.

Jiang Qier didn't know what she was laughing at in her heart, but she didn't show it at all on her face, Jiang Qier looked at the next person, "Who are you?"

"Master, today is your father's big wedding day. Don't tell me you want to stay at the Hu's house all the time and don't plan to go back to do something? At least, you have to let them know that you are still you, you are still the young master of the Jiang family. The family business should be inherited by you." The servant did not answer Jiang Qier's question directly, but said this, "Is the young master really willing to stay in the Hu family for the rest of his life?"

Staying in the Hu family for the rest of her life was something Jiang Qier never thought about.

The servant seemed to have seen something from Jiang Qier's hesitant expression, he quickly lowered his head, and continued: "I stayed at the Hu family when I was young, and I received the kindness of the young lady in the early years, I can't bear to watch Young master, you have been trapped in Hu's house, so I know that there is a way to leave Hu's house, and it will not be known to outsiders in a short time."

"You really want to help me?" After all, she was still a child, Jiang Qi'er believed the other party's words in a few words.

In fact, looking at it from another angle, Jiang Qier, who had been in Hu's house for a while, was already impatient with being trapped. If someone told him now, he would have a way to take Jiang Qier away.No matter what, Jiang Qier is willing to give it a try.

The servant in the gray gown nodded hastily. He looked around in a panic, as if he was a little worried that people would see the scene where he came to find Jiang Qier on this trip. He took a step forward, and before he could speak, he saw Jiang Qi'er took a step back subconsciously, so she laughed, stood where she was, and lowered her voice.

With a dry cough, the servant in the gray coat quickly said: "There is a wooden door behind the kitchen. That door is the small door for the servants in the back kitchen to go in and out when they go out to buy fresh fruits and vegetables. When lunch is approaching, the servants will be in the back kitchen. The inside and the front yard are busy, and there are very few people at the back door. At that time, the young master can find time to leave."

"Go out, turn right, and you will reach the nearby city street after a certain distance. Then, the young master will find time to return to Jiang's house." The servant in the gray coat thought for a while, gritted his teeth, and took out five coins from his waist. The copper plate was then placed in Jiang Qier's hand, "Although this copper plate is small, it is indeed a slave to my heart. I hope the young master will not despise it."

"You chose to help me, thank you very much." Jiang Qi'er was still a little wary of this person in his heart, but he still accepted the other party's copper coins. He was young, so he didn't expect so many twists and turns, only thought that he finally found the opportunity , I can leave the Hu family.

The task of the servant in the gray gown was successfully completed, so he didn't stay here any longer. He nodded, said that he had other things to do, and left in a hurry.

Jiang Qier, who was single-mindedly thinking that he would be able to go back later, did not notice the strange happy expression on his face when the servant left. He looked at the back of the servant leaving, waited for a while, and then turned towards the back kitchen .

He's been in Hu's house long enough, and he doesn't want to stay here to waste time.

Not long after, Jiang Linzhi of Jiangzhai in the north of the city received the news.

Knowing that Jiang Qi'er is now heading towards Jiang's house, he nodded reassuringly, "Keep watching him, don't let anyone disappear under your nose."

The hidden guard standing in the corner nodded and left quickly.

Pei Cheng changed into a green shirt that he hadn't worn for a long time. He liked plain long shirts, but the clothes that Jiang Linzhi ordered for Pei Cheng were basically white shirts.

Putting on the belt, Pei Cheng looked at the corners of the sleeves embroidered with vivid bamboo leaves, and the corner of his mouth twitched. He liked the bamboo planted behind the house in Xinxinan, and when he found free time, he always Love to go to that place for a while, after a long time, Jiang Linzhi thought that Pei Cheng liked to look at bamboo leaves, so he asked the embroiderer to prepare a batch of green or white shirts embroidered with bamboo leaves for Pei Cheng.

Although it looks good, Pei Cheng is still embarrassed to say that he doesn't really like bamboo leaves, he just simply likes the bamboo forest.

But sometimes it's better not to tell than to tell the truth.

Pei Cheng looked at the faint green leaves embroidered on his sleeves and fell into deep thought. After a long time, Dong Lai called out to Pei Cheng nervously, and then Pei Cheng came to his senses. He said, "Are you ready to go?"

Dong Lai heaved a sigh of relief. He just looked at Pei Cheng's appearance and thought something was wrong, "Well, is Madam feeling unwell? Why don't the servants go out and tell the master."

"It's okay." Pei Cheng waved his hand, walked out on his own, and pushed open the door, just in time to see Jiang Linzhi watching Fade Chen leave, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Linzhi glanced at Pei Cheng, and didn't ask much why Pei Cheng had been changing clothes inside for so long just now. He always had endless patience with Pei Cheng, and he did so willingly.

It's just that Pei Cheng is sometimes slow, and he doesn't realize that Jiang Linzhi's attitude towards him and others, including the attitude towards the two cubs, is very different.

Jiang Linzhi was dressed in black and had a cold face. Compared with him a year ago, there was a little more warmth in his eyes, but this warmth only occasionally flashed.

In fact, Pei Cheng has always felt that Jiang Linzhi a year later seems to be more unpredictable than Jiang Linzhi a year ago, but the other party has always answered his questions, and also shared the same bed. For such a long time, Pei Cheng has long learned to subconsciously ignore the horror in Jiang Linzhi's eyes when facing Jiang Linzhi.

Jiang Lin took a step forward, carefully adjusted the corners of Pei Cheng's clothes, and then said: "I will go to Jiang's house later, if you encounter any trouble, you can come back with Donglai first, and come back to accompany you when I am done. .”

Pei Cheng was startled, and understood that the other party was implying that the wedding banquet later would not be passed so easily.

Not knowing what to think of, Pei Cheng pursed his lips, but he still didn't say anything, but he pulled out his sleeve from Jiang Linzhi's hand, and left Jiang Linzhi's side expressionlessly.

Dong Lai, who was standing behind the two, was almost frightened when he saw Pei Cheng give Jiang Linzhi a face and leave. He stood there in fear, wondering whether he should catch up.

Jiang Linzhi glanced at Donglai, and then quickly chased after him, "I don't worry about you staying with me."

"I'm back, I'm worried." Pei Cheng said without turning his head.

Unexpectedly, he would get this answer. Jiang Linzhi's pace slowed down, and then he smiled helplessly. He habitually held Pei Cheng's hand, and the two slowly walked outside side by side, "Well, you will follow later I."

Only then did Pei Cheng's pursed lips raise a faint smile, which was fleeting.

In fact, Pei Cheng is really easy to coax.
