[Red House] Li Changan

May passed by in a hurry, and the capital became really hot. Even the wind blowing at night was accompanied by a wave of heat, making it difficult to sleep at night. people.

Holding a bowl of chilled plum juice in her hand, Daiyu sat on the swing, looked up at the vines on the swing, and couldn't help but roll her eyes with a smile.

Unexpectedly, when I made this swing, even these arrangements were made.

"Girl, it's hot outside, do you want to go inside?" Zicuckoo was a little worried about heatstroke, after all, it was so hot that I could see waves of heat waves in the air, if it wasn't for the shade of trees I'm afraid I won't be able to stay for a moment.

Hearing this, Daiyu shook her head, took a porcelain spoon and put a full spoonful into her mouth, the coolness from her mouth spread all over her body, she squinted her eyes.

It’s so stuffy inside the house, but it’s still comfortable outside. When the wind blows, with the ice cubes placed next to it, the cool style is extra comfortable.

Seeing Daiyu like this, Zijuan couldn't help laughing, why is she still like a child, it wasn't always like this before.

"I really can't help you."

"Where's the Snow Goose?"

"Packing up things in the house, I said yes, I want to organize things so that I won't find them when I get them." Zijuan hesitated after speaking, not knowing whether to say it or not.

In the past two days, Xueyan was a little strange.

Daiyu was stunned when she heard this, and couldn't help but look up at Zijuan: "Is there something wrong?"

"In the past two days, she has always stayed in the room, and it seems that General Pei hasn't come for several days. I wonder if there is something wrong with the government office, so that's why I didn't come."

Now Daiyu finally understood why she always felt something was wrong. It turned out that Pei Yuan hadn't been here for several days.

Thinking about it carefully, Li Changan has been going home as usual these few days. It is conceivable that the yamen should not be so busy, so——

Pei Yuan should have time to come over. After all, the two families are not far away, so what is the reason for not coming?

Could it be a quarrel?

But do people like Pei Yuan seem to be able to quarrel and lose their temper?Not really.

With her feet firmly on the ground, Daiyu glanced into the room, but she couldn't see the snow geese, so she couldn't help saying: "Later, you push the snow geese away, and I'll ask Mr. Xiang if he knows what's going on."

Besides Li Changan, Daiyu couldn't think of anyone to ask about this matter, especially——

Xueyan is thin-skinned, and it's a matter of marriage. Pei Yuan is still a general, so even if they quarreled, Xueyan might not say it even if she was really wronged.

It's really only appropriate for her to ask.

After thinking and thinking, Daiyu couldn't help worrying, if she got married in the future, if she was wronged, what should she do?

"You go to work first, I'll stay by myself for a while." Daiyu raised her eyes to Zicuckoo, and said with a smile, "I'm afraid it's not a big deal, otherwise my husband wouldn't hide it from me. Probably, there was something awkward about it."

"Young master told me when I went out as soon as possible, don't wait for him to come back at night, let the girl rest first, there is something in the yamen, so I will come back late." Zijuan nodded, remembering Li Changan's advice in the morning, and hastily explained.

"Oh, I see."

Daiyu nodded in agreement, thinking about Xueyan and Pei Yuan again, she couldn't help lowering her head, thinking carefully.

Li Changan will come back later, it seems that he can only ask tomorrow.

The bell of the clock rang, and Li Changan had just returned home wearing stars and wearing a moon. He hurriedly washed and entered the room. Seeing the person who was not sleeping soundly on the bed, he couldn't help laughing.

In summer nights, even if the windows are open and the heat-relieving water is put in the room, it won't do much after all. Even a cold-natured person like Daiyu can get so hot that her arms are all outside the quilt.

Just when she got close to the side of the bed, she saw Daiyu groaning and turning her body to face inside.

Li Changan couldn't help but relax his movements and laughed.

Daiyu, who was so hot that she couldn't sleep, felt someone approaching in a daze, but her movements were too light, and the heat stuck to her body, giving her the illusion that she was struggling to even open her eyes.

As soon as he turned over and was about to continue sleeping, he felt someone lying down behind him, and subconsciously reached out to touch it.

"Master?"

"Woke you up?" Li Changan sighed softly, picked up the fan placed by the bed and gently shook it, a gust of wind brushed against Daiyu's cheeks, making Daiyu feel much more comfortable.

Hearing this, Daiyu opened her eyes, turned her head to look at Li Changan and smiled, "Is the yamen very busy? Didn't you say that you have a lot of free time a while ago?"

"Recently, there are things that need to be dealt with, and it will be fine after a while."

Daiyu nodded, leaning against Li Changan habitually, but just when she was hugged together, she felt hot, and her sleepiness also faded a lot, she couldn't help but chuckled, and withdrew from Li Changan's arms.

Seeing this, Li Changan couldn't help but said: "Too hot to sleep? Ask Zijuan and the others to put two more basins of ice in there tomorrow, so I'm afraid it will be able to—"

"No, it's just something on my mind, so I can't sleep well."

"Is it about Old Pei and Xueyan?"

"you know?"

Daiyu looked surprised, she thought that Li Changan didn't know, but if Li Changan knew, then this matter would be easy to handle, and she didn't need to ask any more questions, because Pei Yuan might have already confided in Li Changan.

So, what was the trouble?

Seeing the expression on Daiyu's face, Li Changan couldn't help smiling and said: "I didn't mean to hide it from you, I didn't know until I arrived at the Yamen today, but it's true, Lao Pei's temperament is indeed straightforward and generous, but he can't help being careless. Xueyan is a girl's family. , careful thinking, these two people can think of different things for the same thing, that's why they got awkward."

"what's up?"

"About the dowry."

聘礼

How can the dowry be awkward?Daiyu looked puzzled, and kept asking: "Brother Pei, did he say something else when he said the dowry?"

The fan in Li Changan's hand was still shaking, but he stretched out his hand to wrap around Daiyu's shoulder, and moved his body so that Daiyu could rest on his arm.

It's not a big deal, but...

Pei Yuan thought that Xueyan had no relatives, and the only ones who could be regarded as relatives were Daiyu and Zijuan, so the betrothal gift should be more, so as to show his importance.

But when she was talking about it, Xueyan misunderstood her and thought that Pei Yuan regarded her as a vain person.

After going back and forth, Xue Yan felt aggrieved and uncomfortable, and Pei Yuan didn't know how he had offended Xue Yan, and when the two sides quarreled, Pei Yuan also developed some temper, and simply hid in the yamen and did not come back.

After hearing Li Changan's words, Daiyu couldn't laugh or cry.

It's true that the two of them have the same straightforward temperament, even this misunderstanding can be awkward for three days, if Pei Yuan couldn't help but tell Li Changan, the awkwardness would probably continue.

Leaning into Li Changan's arms, Daiyu couldn't help laughing: "What should I do? If Big Brother Pei doesn't come back, Xueyan will never go to him. This—"

"Don't worry, within a day, Lao Pei will definitely come to the house. When the time comes, I hope the lady will give more pointers."

"kindness?"

"Otherwise, I'm afraid there will be a next time."

Looking at Li Chang'an in astonishment, Daiyu laughed and understood: "Got it."
