I am aging gracefully in the world of famous books

After greeting each other with Ouyang Feng, Pei Xiang took the opportunity to look at him.

This person has a deep nose and eyes, a deep facial contour, and his hair is not pure black, with a few strands of brownish yellow, and he does not look like a pure Middle-earth person.

He is tall, heroic, and his gaze is like lightning. Even if he tried his best to restrain the coldness and majesty around him at this moment, he still gave off a sharp and unruly feeling, like a dormant hero.

——In the future, this is a martial arts master who is one of the five best in the world...

While Pei Xiang was looking at Ouyang Feng, the other party was actually observing her.

Ouyang Feng is such a sensitive person, how could he fail to notice the dissatisfaction of this sister-in-law-to-be with the marriage.He has superb internal energy and sharp eyes and ears. Even if he didn't need to deliberately inquire about it, he had heard the complaints of the second Miss Pei, but he hadn't paid much attention to it.

——It's just Miss Boudoir Jiao's capricious temper. When she arrived at White Camel Mountain, her elder brother came forward to appease her.

It's just... meeting this morning, this Second Miss Pei gave Ouyang Feng another extremely subtle change in his feelings.The person is still the same person, the expression and demeanor are still the same as before, there is no difference, but... there is something different.

Just like the little snake he raised carefully when he was young, after secretly devouring other poisonous insects and vipers, the poison in his body gradually strengthened, but his appearance became more green, lively and lovable.

Later... that little snake poisoned the snake trainer to death while he was practicing in seclusion, and fled quietly into the deep mountains, where he has never been seen again.

Suddenly recalling a childhood experience, Ouyang Feng was slightly taken aback, then burst out laughing.

He felt that he was too vigilant and sensitive, otherwise, how could he associate a slender woman with no martial arts skills as a cunning little poisonous snake?

—Probably some demonic obstacle.Recently, I have been thinking hard about how to improve the family-inherited palm method, which is quite exhausting, and it is inevitable that there will be some illusions.

"Miss Pei, from today onwards, our itinerary will be slightly accelerated. We will travel all the way through mountains and rivers, and we will inevitably be exhausted and exhausted. I hope Miss Pei will forgive me."

Miss Pei didn't really want to "forgive".

She wasn't looking forward to the upcoming wedding, so naturally she wasn't in a hurry to rush to Kunlun White Camel Mountain in the Western Regions, so why bother to speed up the carriage and horses to make herself uncomfortable?

The little girl's expression was easy to understand. Although she was trying her best to avoid revealing her true thoughts, her delicate brows slightly furrowed, her erratic and sly gaze, and her small movements of quietly playing with the tassels around her waist all clearly told Ouyang Feng that she She hates rushing, she doesn't want to endure hardships, she wants to travel slowly.

Such a simple mind and innocent performance allowed Ouyang Feng to completely dispel the doubts brought about by his intuition.

He lowered his eyes indifferently, as if he didn't notice Pei Xiang's dissatisfaction, he made a decision on his own, and then left.

——If you don’t like it, then you don’t like it. Anyway, I want to hand him over to my brother as soon as possible, and then go to retreat and practice.

Pei Xiang stood at the same spot and watched Ouyang Feng leave. After a while, when the other party had gone far away and couldn't notice his every move, he couldn't help stomping his feet angrily and grunting reluctantly.

"Walking away" Ouyang Feng: "..."

——So stupid, how can he be the same as that cunning little green snake?I was really too suspicious.

As a result, the suspicious person really walked away, while Pei Xiang silently breathed a sigh of relief, sighing to himself that he was indeed Ouyang Feng.

Then, with all sincerity, she secretly made a victorious grimace.

After breakfast, Pei Xiang rested for a while, then boarded the carriage with the help of the maid, and continued to travel north and west.

The journey was boring and the carriage was bumpy, so Pei Xiang had to chat with the nanny Wang Mama and others.

Mother Wang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief seeing that her young lady was no longer as sullen as she was a few days ago and seldom spoke.

She said a Bodhisattva's blessing in her heart, and then began to persuade her earnestly.

Mother Wang tried to make Pei Xiang look forward to and pay more attention to the marriage, so that he should not always be full of resistance to Mr. Ouyang.If you keep thinking about it and getting angry, it will be your daughter who suffers in the end.

Pei Xiang just needs an opportunity to change his attitude so as to seek greater freedom and convenience.

So, under the continuous coaxing and persuasion of Wang Mama, she gradually changed her previous indifferent attitude, and when she mentioned her marriage, she was no longer as negative and pessimistic as she was at the beginning, and even occasionally inquired about the eldest son Ouyang Zheng things.

For Pei Xiang's transformation, Ms. Wang is naturally happy to see it succeed.She would send her little maid to inquire about the White Camel Mountain every day, and then relay the information to her own lady.

Of course, she would also pretend to inadvertently reveal Pei Xiang's concern and importance to the marriage to the people of Baituoshan, trying to leave a good impression on them.

A few days later, Pei Xiang felt that the time was almost up, so he decided to carry out the next step.

In the evening, the convoy stopped in a bustling and well-connected town, preparing to take a short rest.

After staying in the inn, Pei Xiang said that she wanted to taste the snacks made by the nanny herself, so she asked Mama Wang to leave her side for a while, and then she ordered the big maid, Qiu Shi, to go out to buy some preserved fruits and snacks and local specialties for her.

As a result, only Biyun, who was relatively young, was left beside Pei Xiang.

"Biyun, go and find out for me, and ask if the Second Young Master Ouyang is in the room? If so, please send a message for me, saying that I have something to visit, and ask the Second Young Master if it is convenient for you to receive him?"

"Okay, Second Miss, I'll go and inquire now."

Biyun got the order and immediately left the room to go to work without any delay.

Pei Xiang looked at the brisk back of the little girl, and smiled slightly, that's why she kept Biyun.

If Qiu Shi or Mama Wang were here, they would have to ask Pei Xiang why he wanted to find Ouyang Feng.If she knew her real purpose, she might not agree with her, and even tried to persuade her, unlike the young Biyun who was so simple and straightforward, doing what she was told to do.

After a while, Biyun came back, but not alone.

Ouyang Feng followed behind Biyun, standing under the steps with his hands behind his back.

Pei Xiang hurriedly got up and went out, and met and talked with Ouyang Feng in the open space around.

"Second son, the little girl has something to ask for."

"Miss Pei just give orders."

"I want to learn some simple medical skills and learn to identify medicinal materials. I hope that the second son can order someone to help me purchase some common medicinal materials and medical books, and then assign a subordinate who can teach me."

Ouyang Feng looked puzzled.

Pei Xiang showed a shy smile.She subconsciously avoided Ouyang Feng's sharp gaze, and let her gaze fall on a certain leaf not far away. After a few breaths of silence, she slowly explained the reason:

"Second son, I heard that Ouyang Zheng... the eldest son's health is not very good, and he spends years with soup and medicine. I thought, as... I should do what I can for the eldest son. If I have some superficial medical skills , must be able to take care of the eldest son more properly."

"Miss Pei is virtuous and intelligent. If my brother knows Miss Pei's heart, he will be grateful. It's just that Miss Pei doesn't need to work so hard, and the servants in the village will take care of the work of serving people. Whatever Miss Pei needs, just tell the servants to do it." , why bother to do it yourself.”

Pei Xiang bit her lip, and unconsciously twirled the string of the sachet with her slender fingers. After hesitating for a moment, she glanced at Ouyang Feng helplessly, and then said quickly:

"How can this be the same? Serving soup and feeding medicine should be done by the wife herself. Mama Wang said... no, I am willing to take care of the eldest son myself, but I have never taken care of others before, so I want to learn to recognize him first." Identify herbs.

"At the very least, I can understand whether the prescriptions are good or bad, and I can know the taboos of each soup and medicine that the eldest son drinks, and what kind of food should be used with it. And... how to maintain and adjust breath in daily life, and the different solar terms throughout the year How to arrange daily life, what needs to be paid attention to when sick, how to make patients feel more comfortable and happy... I want to learn some of these in advance."

Pei Xiangyue spoke more seriously, and her expression gradually became determined and clear from the shy and hesitant at the beginning.After expressing her thoughts in one breath, she was able to look at her future husband's younger brother calmly.

At this moment, she overcame the shyness and embarrassment of her youngest daughter, gradually revealed the calmness of Pei's daughter, and discussed taking care of Ouyang Zheng as a serious matter.

Such a change made Ouyang Feng slightly surprised and a little moved.

He thought to himself, he still remembered that a few days ago, this sister-in-law-to-be didn't care much about her marriage, but she didn't expect to change her attitude today, and it changed so much—she was willing to take the initiative to learn how to take care of her brother Ouyang Zheng up.

For Ouyang Feng, this is a good thing.

Of course he knew that the personal care of his wife was different from the service of servants, and the refusal just now was mostly a polite temptation.If his sister-in-law-to-be really had such intentions, would he still stop her?

——Besides, it's just to learn some superficial medical skills. Of course, the future mistress of Ouyang's family has this freedom.

——Not only that, but after she and her elder brother get married, if she wants to learn more advanced medical skills, poison skills and martial arts, our Ouyang family will do our best to satisfy.

——But why did her attitude suddenly change?

Ouyang Feng had doubts in his heart, but he would not embarrass Pei Xiang in the open, so without Pei Xiang saying anything, he decisively agreed to her request.

When Pei Xiang saw Ouyang Feng nodding, he immediately showed his face, and quickly ordered Biyun to follow the guards of Baituo Mountain to go out to buy medicinal materials.

"Biyun, you don't need a lot of everything, but you have to buy all the common medicinal materials and put them on my carriage in batches. From now on, when I'm on the road every day, I will identify the medicinal materials in the carriage."

Biyun responded, then hesitated and said:

"Second Miss, the key to the silver box is with Mama Wang. Without her permission, we can't withdraw the money, or I'll go to the kitchen..."

Pei Xiang interrupted Biyun: "Go and get two gold hairpins from my jewelry box. Don't tell Mama Wang, otherwise she will start nagging again."

"Yes, girl."

Biyun bowed and turned to leave.

Ouyang Feng raised his hand to signal, a guard suddenly appeared from the corner and stopped Biyun's footsteps.

"Bai Wu, take this little girl to buy all the things you need, and then tell Bai Jiu to prepare well. From tomorrow, let her tell Miss Pei about the identification of medicinal materials and the uncle's daily preferences."

"As ordered."

Bai Wu replied in a deep voice, and then quickly left Pei Xiang's sight with Bi Yun.

Seeing that Biyun disappeared without taking the money, Pei Xiang couldn't help showing anxiety.

Ouyang Feng said softly: "Baituoshan is not so poor that Miss Pei can sell her jewelry."

"But……"

Ouyang Feng was too lazy to bother about money, so he took a step forward and asked Pei Xiang directly:

"Miss Pei is dissatisfied with the old woman beside her? If that's the case, just deal with it directly. Why do you need to act according to her face?"

Pei Xiang was taken aback by this sudden question, she blinked, then shook her head again and again after realizing:

"Why did the second son say that? Mother Wang is my nurse. I grew up under her care since I was a child. I have a deep relationship with her. I have no dissatisfaction with her."

"But you still need her permission to spend the money."

"It's always been like this." Pei Xiang looked at Ouyang Feng in confusion, as if he didn't know why he suddenly became cold. "My mother is in charge of everything in my house. She helps me manage my servants and money. Taking care of my food, clothing, housing and transportation, I can’t do without Mama Wang. Moreover, she didn’t restrict me, but sometimes advised me and told me what to do. Like this time, when I suddenly wanted to spend a lot of money, she would definitely Ask why."

Ouyang Feng frowned, the more he listened, the more he felt that Miss Pei was a little too dependent on her wet nurse.Now she let the other party take care of everything in the house, and she needs to consult a servant woman for advice to spend money, and she still doesn't think it's inappropriate!

——After arriving at White Camel Mountain in the future, will she still let this Mama Wang take charge of the internal affairs of the villa?

——It would be fine if this Mama Wang was just the nanny of the second girl Pei, but she is still a loyal servant of the Pei family...

——People with two hearts are not allowed on White Camel Mountain.

"Miss Pei, people around you don't agree with you studying medicine?"

Ouyang Feng suppressed his dissatisfaction and sharply raised new questions again.

Pei Xiang's cheeks flushed suddenly, her eyes flickered, as if she was a child who had been exposed as a prankster, and her tone was too cautious.

"This, this, Second Young Master Ouyang, you, uh, do you think there is something wrong with me studying medicine?"

Ouyang Feng's eyes narrowed slightly, he suddenly thought of the rigid rules of the Pei family, and a flash of clarity flashed across his eyes.

He said in a deep voice, "Of course there is no mistake."

"Really?"

Pei Xiang looked at the person who gave an affirmative answer with some joy, and said with joy:

"If I talk to Ms. Wang about this first, she will definitely not agree. The daughters of our family and the Pei family should not touch these things. The most important thing is to support the husband, teach the children and host the middle class. However, if If I keep insisting, Ms. Wang will definitely agree to me in the end, she won't let me embarrass her."

Ouyang Feng thought to himself, if the servants of White Camel Mountain dared to treat him like this, they would have been fed poisonous snakes long ago.

"So, in order to save trouble, Miss Pei bypassed that old lady and directly talked to me about studying medicine?"

Pei Xiang smiled embarrassedly, and readily admitted:

"I want to ask you first. If you don't want to take care of it, I will pester Mother Wang. Anyway, I can always persuade her, but it may take a lot of time."

Ouyang Feng nodded slightly, he understood the cause and effect of what happened today.

He waited and found that Pei Xiang didn't make any new requests, so he turned around and left.

After returning to the room, Ouyang Feng asked his subordinate Cui Yu to ask about the master and servant of the Pei family. The most important question was why Pei Xiang's attitude suddenly changed and he became enthusiastic towards his elder brother.

Cui Yu thought for a while, and replied seriously:

"My subordinates heard that it was Mrs. Wang's persuasion by Miss Pei's side. In recent days, the driving time has been lengthened, the speed of the car is fast, and the road conditions are bumpy. Miss Pei has nothing to do in the car, so she can only talk to the people around her. Come to pass the time.

"That mother Wang took the opportunity to find out the pros and cons, and gradually softened Miss Pei's attitude. Nowadays, the servants of the Pei family have to inquire about some things about the uncle every day, and then report to Miss Pei.

"My subordinates understand that when Miss Pei learns about the wise deeds of the uncle, she must secretly agree with her heart. All the previous depressions were mostly caused by the fear of being away from home for the first time. Now that the journey is halfway through, and the second master is protecting me all the way, I am afraid. The mood must have faded away."

In other words, since leaving home and marrying far away has become a foregone conclusion, of course we have to look forward, and it is time to care about our future husband.Otherwise, wouldn't it be even more uncomfortable if you came to White Camel Mountain and lost Ouyang Zheng's favor?

Ouyang Feng pondered for a moment, thinking of the second Miss Pei's dependence and trust on the nanny, he didn't feel that this change was abrupt and suspicious at all.

At this moment, he was convinced that Pei Xiang really planned to treat Ouyang Zheng sincerely.The matter of studying medicine may be mixed with her own interests and selfishness, but more, as she said, it should be to take better care of and get close to Ouyang Zheng, and strive to be a good wife.

After thinking about this, Ouyang Feng felt certain, and then began to think about another question.

"Who is responsible for the affairs around Miss Pei? Among the servants she brought, who does she rely on most?"

"Of course it's Mama Wang, and then there's a maid named Qiushi."

"Where is the one called Biyun?"

"Biyun?" Cui Yu tried to think about it, "Is she a little girl running errands? This subordinate didn't pay much attention to her before, Second Master, do you need your subordinate to send someone to watch Biyun?"

Ouyang Feng shook his head, picked up his teacup and took a sip of the hot tea.

——The hostess of White Camel Mountain does not need to be manipulated by a servant girl.

"The next time you pass by a town to rest for supplies, ask someone to give some medicine to Wang Mama and that Qiushi, so that they can't continue to leave with the convoy."

"Yes."

Ouyang Feng thought of the usual style of his subordinates, so he specially warned:

"Don't use the deadly poison. We and the Pei family are in-laws, not enemies."

"Remember this, subordinates."

"Well, after we arrive at White Camel Mountain, you arrange for someone to send the two of them back to Pei's house, and say that they are not acclimatized. Miss Pei is kind-hearted, and she is willing to let the servants around her go back to their hometown to reunite with their relatives and friends."

"This...would Miss Pei be reluctant to let Mama Wang and Qiushi go back?"

Ouyang Feng glanced at Cui Yu lightly, Cui Yu suddenly felt cold all over, and lowered his head firmly.

"Subordinates talk too much!"

Ouyang Feng teased the little black snake hidden in his sleeve, and said after a while: "Go down."

Cui Yu felt relieved, but he didn't dare to show it on his face, he quickly bowed and exited Ouyang Feng's room.

There was only one person's breathing in the room.

Ouyang Feng let the little snake out and let it crawl on the table, and he started to practice his family's inner strength. One person and one snake lived together in silence all night.

On the other hand, when Mother Wang came back from the kitchen and learned that Pei Xiang intended to study medicine, she really showed disapproval.

"Why does the girl have to suffer like that? She also made herself smell like medicine."

Pei Xiang explained the reason for deceiving Ouyang Feng again.

After listening to Ms. Wang, although she felt that it was a good thing for a husband and wife to be close, she didn't have to worry about everything herself. How could the precious daughter of the Pei family do the drudgery of making and feeding medicine or massage and kneading?

Ms. Wang wanted to persuade her again, so Pei Xiang immediately covered her ears, pretending to be impatient and turning her back.

The situation of this little daughter made Wang Mama dumbfounded, she thought that her daughter was still a child, so she wanted to learn to take care of others, how could it be so easy?Maybe you will regret it after learning for two or three days.

——When the time comes, the girl will give up without persuading herself.

Seeing this, Pei Xiang sighed inwardly.She knew that Mama Wang's love for the original owner was true, but Mama Wang knew the original owner too well and was used to making decisions for the original owner. If she stayed by Pei Xiang's side, conflicts would break out between the two sooner or later. Get together as early as possible.

What's more, after she came to White Camel Mountain, whether she will leave or stay is uncertain, and she may do some dangerous things.

If these Pei family members were allowed to stay on White Camel Mountain, it would not only make her feel at a loss, but also easily cause the Pei family servants to lose their lives.After all, the poisonous snakes and insects on White Camel Mountain are not vegetarians.

Now, not only would she use Ouyang Feng's hand to send Wang Mama and Qiu Shi back to the Pei family, but after a while, she would also send away the rest of the Pei family one after another.
