The Male Wife

Jiang Linzhi picked up the noodles with chopsticks, took a bite, frowned, and added a spoonful of chili, "What else do you like to eat besides these?"

It's not that he doesn't know Pei Cheng's taste, Jiang Linzhi simply wants to know what other hobbies Pei Cheng has besides eating wontons on the street.

Pei Cheng ate a mouthful of wontons. Hearing this, he thought about it seriously, and then said: "No more."

He has two hobbies in his life, one is reading story books, and it should be reading account books.

Jiang Linzhi knew that Pei Cheng liked to read story books, so he bought a lot of new story books for him every month and placed them at home for him to read casually. As for the account books, Pei Cheng now has in his hands nothing but inorganic pavilions. In addition to the monthly account books, he also held the account books of the cockfighting field and Jiang Linzhi's private warehouse.

Jiang Linzhi didn't continue to ask, he lowered his head to eat the noodles, he ate very fast, at least faster than Pei Cheng who likes to chew slowly.

After Pei Cheng finished eating, he wiped his mouth and said, "You didn't eat so fast before." The implication is that Jiang Linzhi seems to be a different person now.

Jiang Linzhi didn't deny it either, he nodded and said, "I've been too busy during this period." Because he was busy, he would eat faster.

In fact, what Pei Cheng didn't know was that Jiang Linzhi's eating speed has always been very fast. This is a habit he developed when he first started working outside in his early years. Because he was too busy, he always ate after he was busy. Sometimes I even get busy while eating, so I put aside the rich family habits that I was raised since I was a child.

But Jiang Rinzhi didn't intend to let Pei Cheng know about these inside stories, so as not to let the latter think wildly in his heart, so he didn't explain in detail, but just gave a specious answer.

After eating, because the food stall is not far from the Lianhua River, the two simply walked away.

And just before Pei Cheng and Jiang Linzhi went out, Jiang Yanzhi hugged Jiang Yan, stood in the lobby of his house and began to direct the servants to clean the house.

The red happy characters, the flowers that can be seen everywhere on the ground, and the big boxes that are placed from the front of the corridor to the back of the corridor. Jiang Yan pointed to the box in front of him, feeling so excited that he also called out to his brother to carry him to look at the box.

In fact, what interested him was not the box, but what was inside the box.

Jiang Yanzhi has been taking care of this small family for a long time, so he doesn't know what this little guy is thinking. He looked at the little guy without changing his face, and then said: "These boxes are all father's betrothal gifts. Do you miss father's gift?" Are you angry?"

Jiang Yan pursed his lips.

The little guy is still young, so he can't understand the full meaning of Jiang Yanzhi's words, but he can hear the word "father".

Of course, he couldn't be afraid of the tall, strong, always stern, sullen and majestic father.

Jiang Yanzhi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the little guy was well-behaved, "Be more obedient and wait for father and father to come back."

Jiang Yan hugged his brother's neck aggrievedly.

Jiang Yanzhi let the little guy act like a baby with him, but he didn't care.

Jiang Yan hummed and murmured, but no one could understand what he was saying.

Jiang Yan Zhiquan pretended not to hear it.

Because he was still wondering if these dowries were enough.However, these dowry gifts were prepared by the housekeeper and father, so there would be nothing missing.Jiang Yanzhi thought in his heart.

Pei Cheng is still outside now, taking a leisurely walk along the river with Jiang Linzhi, waiting for the beautiful night view of the river when night comes.

Pei Cheng held a sugar figurine in his hand. When he was passing by the sugar figurine's booth just now, Pei Cheng just kept his eyes on for a few seconds, and Jiang Linzhi insisted on buying it for him.

I don't like to eat very much, but I am still happy.

Pei Cheng took a bite, it was too sweet, but for Pei Cheng who always likes to eat sweets, this food is quite delicious.

Jiang Linzhi said: "I still remember that when we got married that year, the dowry gift from Jiang's family to Pei's family was actually not much."

I don’t know why Jiang Linzhi brought up the topic that had ended a long time ago. This surprised Pei Cheng, who was eating candy, but after thinking about it, Pei Cheng probably guessed what the other party was thinking, but Pei Cheng still I simply thought that the other party just wanted to bring up the past.

So Pei Cheng accompanied him to reminisce about the past, "When my parents decided to marry me to Jiang's family, it was just because of the shady things in the underground, and in addition, the dowry in Huaguo for marrying a man's wife is not as good as marrying a woman. It doesn't matter more or less." What's more, those dowry gifts did not fall into his own hands in the end, so Pei Cheng didn't care about it.

Jiang Linzhi said: "How many things did you bring to Jiang's house?"

Because at that time, he was not interested in Pei Cheng, the man and wife who was forced into him, so Jiang Linzhi didn't pay too much attention to the bride price, or even didn't care.

So he didn't pay attention to how much bride price Pei Cheng brought at that time.

When he said this, Pei Cheng was also a little confused. He stood there and thought about it seriously, and then told Jiang Linzhi very regretfully, "I can't remember clearly, but there are not many."

"Why can't I remember?" Jiang Linzhi frowned. It stands to reason that even if a man married, he would also prepare a dowry like a woman, so Pei Cheng must have prepared a dowry when he got married.But for some reason, Pei Cheng didn't know how much dowry he had brought over.

The dowry is privately kept by Pei Cheng himself, and the ownership belongs to Pei Cheng, so Pei Cheng will not be ignorant.

But Pei Cheng really didn't know, "Those things, on the third day after I married into the Jiang family, Mrs. Jiang used a reason to move them to the warehouse of the Jiang family. Those dowries were not placed in my house from the beginning. In the yard, so I didn't get the news until after the things were moved, so it was too late."

Mrs. Jiang wanted to take Pei Cheng's dowry, so Pei Cheng, who had no support in the Jiang family, naturally had no choice, so Pei Cheng could only let Mrs. Jiang take his dowry away.

Hearing this, Jiang Linzhi frowned and said, "The Pei family will not give you a lot of dowry, and the Jiang family will not lack such things." The implication is why Mrs. Jiang is so outrageous in doing things, even a little dowry Also grab it.

It's been too long in the past, Pei Cheng didn't take it to heart at the beginning, so now he doesn't take it to heart, Pei Cheng casually said: "It's been so long, there is no need to bring it up again."

"Yeah." It's been too many years, even if you really want to seek justice, now is not a good time.

So Jiang Linzhi didn't say anything about it.

Instead, he took Pei Cheng to a stall not far away, and carefully accompanied him to choose the lotus lantern.

After choosing two lotus lanterns, Pei Cheng squatted on the ground, holding a pen, carefully wrote down his wish stroke by stroke, then lit the lotus lanterns, and then carefully placed the lotus lanterns on the gentle river surface.

Jiang Linzhi stood beside Pei Cheng and put the lantern together with Pei Cheng.

When it was dark, many young men and women ran to the river happily with the lotus lanterns they had prepared, carefully placed the lotus lanterns with their wishes on the river, and at the same time watched eagerly at themselves. The lotus lantern on the river surface, I thought in my heart that the lantern must not be extinguished, otherwise how would the Bodhisattva see his wish.

Some people are happy, some are sad, some people's lotus lanterns tremblingly carry their owner's wishes and slowly sail to the distance, leaving a little light at the end, disappearing into the clouds and fog, some people's lotus lanterns are over before they start, In the end, its owner ran back dejectedly to buy a new lantern, wrote down his wish seriously, and started all over again.

Pei Cheng's luck was a little bit good, his lotus lantern had gone through many twists and turns, several times it was almost blown out by the light wind, but then somehow, it stabilized slowly again.

In the end, in the lotus of Pei Cheng's beautiful wish, he rode away.

And Jiang Linzhi was the unlucky one, the lotus lantern ended before it started, and now the extinguished lotus lantern is sinking in despair, gradually being swallowed by the river water.

Pei Cheng looked a little distressed.

"Why are there two identical lamps, one is gone and the other is still there?" Pei Cheng said suddenly, "The workmanship is different."

Jiang Linzhi remained calm, "Cheng San, go buy another one."

Cheng San passed through the crowd quickly, ran back, bought a lamp as fast as he could, then ran back and put it in front of Jiang Linzhi.

Jiang Linzhi rewrote a new wish, then put down the lamp, watching it wobble, unwaveringly, and slowly drive out of the river along the water.

Pei Cheng looked at the lotus lantern dangling out of his sight, and he was very happy. He didn't know why he was happy, but he was very happy in his heart.

After setting off the lanterns, there were only a lot of people putting up the lanterns nearby. Pei Cheng didn't intend to stay by the dark river any longer, so he said, "Let's go out for a walk."

At the Lotus Lantern Festival, there were quite a few vendors who set up lantern riddles. Pei Cheng glanced at it from a distance and found it boring, so he said, "There's nothing to see, let's go back."

There was really nothing to see, the only lotus lantern that I wanted to see was finished, and the rest was not worth seeing, so Pei Cheng wanted to go back.

Jiang Linzhi looked at Pei Cheng fixedly.

Pei Cheng was puzzled by the man's eyes.

"What's wrong?" Pei Cheng stretched out his hand and touched his face, feeling very puzzled, "Is there something wrong with me?"

Jiang Linzhi shook his head. He looked away, pretending to be calm and said: "It's still early, let's go back."

I don't know if the things at home are finished. If it is done, everyone will be happy to go back now, but if it is not done after returning, it will be quite embarrassing.

Jiang Linzhi, who was unwilling to take risks, thought about walking back slowly.

Pei Cheng squinted his eyes and looked Jiang Linzhi up and down, "Is there something you are hiding from me? Jiang Lin's heart moved, and he looked at Pei Cheng, and the eyes of the two intersected in mid-air.

In the end, Pei Cheng was defeated, "Forget it, let's walk back."

Since you want to walk back, let's walk back, it's not a big deal.
