The Male Wife

Pei Cheng took Jiang Linzhi and gave him a lantern, feeling a little complicated.

Jiang Yanzhi took the lantern that Pei Cheng gave him, and flew up happily.

The wind started to blow at night, and many elderly people have gradually left. The bustling streets are basically only young boys and girls and young couples in pairs.

After walking for a while, Pei Cheng noticed that Jiang Yanzhi's face was turning red unnaturally, he frowned, quickly caught up with Jiang Linzhi, and said, "Yanzhi is not feeling well, let's go back first. "

Jiang Linzhi hadn't planned to come out to watch the lantern, but on the one hand, he planned to see those people turn against each other, and on the other hand, he had promised to take Pei Cheng out to watch the lantern.So when Pei Cheng offered to go back, he agreed without any hesitation.

A group of people hurried back after buying two lanterns.

After returning to Jiang's house, because of Jiang Yanzhi's body, everyone went back to the east courtyard as soon as they entered the door, so Pei Cheng didn't know what was happening in Xiyuan at this moment.

Not long after, the servant brought the doctor to the East Hospital, and after checking Jiang Yanzhi's pulse, he prescribed a new decoction for a few days before leaving.

Pei Cheng accompanied Jiang Yanzhi to drink the medicine, and gently put him to sleep before going back to the room to rest.

Jiang Linzhi hadn't rested yet. He stood at the window, looked at the withered flowers and branches in the house, and said, "Tomorrow, someone will pull out all the flowers in the backyard, and we will plant a new batch in the next spring."

The medicine prescribed by the Jiang family "specially" for the doctor invited by Jiang Linzhi was too strong to drink, and he would be noticed if he didn't drink it, so the medicine was poured into the flower field, and the flowers wouldn't last long.

Dong Lai nodded, Xindao East Hospital has to change a batch of flowers and black soil every year, I am afraid that if they change a few more times, the people in Xiyuan will probably notice that the second master did not drink those passive medicines at all, and said: " Second master, Xiyuan is still in trouble."

"The old lady hasn't slept yet?" Jiang Linzhi said.

"She was asleep at first, but she was woken up by the alarm. When the old lady woke up and heard what happened in Lianting, she was so angry that she almost fainted." Dong Lai whispered, "The uncle is still at Liu's house and hasn't come back yet."

"The Liu family probably won't let the Jiang family go easily." Jiang Linzhi said, "Even less will they let Hu Xiayun go easily."

Dong Lai echoed softly: "When the servant came back, he found out that the old lady had slapped Young Master Qi'er. I guess this day has really changed."

Jiang Linzhi didn't say anything. After a while, he closed the window and said, "Go down. Xiyuan is Xiyuan. Don't talk too much about Xiyuan in the east courtyard. Keep your mouth shut."

It should have been used to Jiang Linzhi's uncertain temperament, so Dong Lai just nodded lightly when he heard the words, expressing his understanding, and then left lightly.

Jiang Linzhi walked to the bed, sat down, picked up the scroll that he had just read half of last time, and read it for a long time without turning a page.

The next day.

As soon as Pei Cheng got up, he heard about what happened in Xiyuan last night from the mouth of a broken servant. Uncle Jiang came back from Liu's house and angrily punished Qi'er to kneel in the ancestral hall all night. Hu Xiayun angrily argued with Uncle Jiang, But he was slapped directly by the old lady, completely honest.

The next day, after kneeling all night, Qi'er, who still hadn't had a drop of water, was taken to Liu's house by Uncle Jiang, saying that he wanted to make amends to Liu Songwu.Although Qi'er insisted that he did not push Liu Songwu out of the lake, Liu Songwu was the only one around when the accident happened, and Qi'er's confusing explanation at that time has completely convinced the people around him that it was Qi'er from the Jiang family who pushed Liu Songwu. Liu Songwu fell into the lake.

But Uncle Jiang and Qi'er were turned away by the Liu family in front of a group of servants.

At that time, the housekeeper of the Liu family was standing at the door, with a few servants to stop Uncle Jiang, and said politely and distantly: "Master Jiang, Master Qi'er, it's not that the old slaves don't let the two of you in, it's because the master ordered you to die." , this old slave also acted according to the master's orders, and I ask Young Master Jiang and Young Master Qi'er to forgive me."

With a dark face, Uncle Jiang dragged Qi'er back to the Jiang's house without dragging his feet.

The Jiang family and the Liu family have formed a grudge.

When Pei Cheng knew about this, the smile on his face deepened, and after he had breakfast, he went directly to Jiang Linzhi.

However, when Pei Cheng just walked into Jiang Linzhi's yard, several gardeners walked towards him. Pei Cheng didn't intend to pay attention to it at first, but from the corner of his eyes, he caught sight of the broken flower branch in the gardener's hand, and his footsteps stopped. Pei Cheng walked over directly.

The gardener froze in place, thinking that he had done a poor job, which made the master angry.

Pei Cheng pointed to the dead flower in the gardener's hand and said, "What's the matter with this flower?"

Pei Cheng doesn't understand flowers, but he knows that ordinary withered and dead flowers shouldn't look like the ones held by a gardener... The roots of these flowers are all black, and they look a bit like they were poisoned to death.

Pei Cheng thought so in his heart, but he didn't say it out, after all he didn't understand these things, it would be bad if he said something wrong.

"This, this, the villain is not very clear." The gardener seemed to be worried about touching some taboos, and said vaguely: "If the second young lady has nothing to say, the villain will leave first."

After finishing speaking, the gardener hurriedly left the east courtyard with the dead flowers.

Pei Cheng stood still and watched the back of the gardener leaving.

Jiang Linzhi stood at the window and said lightly, "Come in."

Pei Cheng suddenly turned his head to look in the direction of the window, and he saw Jiang Linzhi now, and he didn't know if the other party was standing at the window from the beginning, but he didn't see the other party; or it was because the other party came over after hearing his voice .

Dong Lai came out from the house, holding a bowl of unfinished medicine in his hand, bowed his body, and said respectfully, "Ma'am."

Pei Cheng suddenly pointed to the medicine bowl Donglai was holding in his hand, and said, "Is this the second master's medicine?"

Dong Lai seemed a little surprised, he probably didn't expect Pei Cheng to ask himself this question, he hesitated for a while before answering: "Yes."

Pei Cheng nodded and walked into the house.

Jiang Linzhi was still standing at the window, and when Pei Cheng entered the room, he said, "How is Yan Zhi's illness?"

"I just took the medicine and fell asleep again."

Jiang Linzhi nodded, walked to the low couch, picked up a book he was still reading, flipped through it, turned to the page he saw last time, lowered his head and continued to read, ignoring Pei Cheng who was still standing.

Pei Cheng walked over, but instead of sitting on the low couch with Jiang Linzhi, he sat on a chair, thought for a while, and then said, "Second Master, if someone finds out, what should we do?"

Jiang Linzhi raised his eyes, as if he was interested in Pei Cheng's question, "How should I say it?"

"The matter is such a big mess, it is absolutely impossible for the uncle and Hu Xiayun to let it go like this." Pei Cheng was indeed happy at the beginning, but after he was happy, he couldn't help but worry about Jiang Linzhi.

"Madam is worried that they will find out about me." Jiang Linzhi said casually, and turned another page, as if he didn't take this matter to heart.

Pei Cheng said, "It's not me, it's us."

Jiang Linzhi looked up, a little surprised, but more indifferent, "It's up to you. I will deal with this matter, Madam can rest assured."

Pei Cheng didn't speak, but looked at Jiang Linzhi fixedly, feeling complicated in his heart.

Jiang Linzhi turned another page, and he seemed to turn another page without looking at it, but Pei Cheng didn't notice.

Pei Cheng pursed his lips and said, "If the second master is sure about this matter, then I won't say any more."

Jiang Linzhi didn't respond.

Pei Cheng waited for a while, but he didn't get anything. He looked a little disappointed, so he said he wanted to go back.

Jiang Linzhi didn't hold back, but his tone was extremely cold, "Go back."

Pei Cheng had something on his mind, didn't notice Jiang Linzhi's strange tone, and left on his own.

After Pei Cheng left, Donglai walked in, but he didn't come over, just stood at the door and waited.

Not long after, Jiang Linzhi suddenly threw the half-read book on the ground, and said coldly, "Get out!"

Dong Lai was taken aback, a layer of cold sweat appeared on his back, he didn't dare to stay, and left quickly.

Jiang Linzhi maintained the original posture, his eyes fell on the book thrown on the ground, his lips were pursed, his deep eyes were full of coldness.

the other side.

Hu Xiayun knelt on the ground, and the room was burning with incense. Although a window was opened, the smell of incense in the room was still a bit strong.The old lady sitting on the chair took a sip of hot tea, then put the teacup on the table, she said coldly: "Xia Yun, I am very disappointed in you."

Hu Xiayun shook her head, lowered her head, and hurriedly said: "Mother, this matter is Xia Yun's negligence. Xia Yun promises that there will be no next time." The old lady sneered, "Do you still want to have a next time? Now the Jiang family You have formed a grudge with the Liu family, tell me, how will the business of our two families continue in the future."

Hu Xiayun looked embarrassed, "This, old lady, is all Xia Yun's fault."

The old lady waved her hand wearily. She didn't sleep last night because she was worried that her brother would be angry with Jiang's family, so she sent the maid who married with her to go home early in the morning, but she didn't expect that, Not only did the elder brother not see the person he sent, he even... even asked the servants to treat the boss in public.

The old lady knew that things were getting serious.

If it was said that Liu Songwu's relationship with the Liu family was somewhat embarrassing because Liu Songwu pushed Jiang to know about the loss of the lake, then now it is a feud.

The old lady said: "The boss is still dealing with the next trouble in the shop. Next, there will probably be more trouble." How could Hu Xiayun not know what this meant? She gritted her teeth, fearing that the old lady would blame herself, so Taking care of himself, he deliberately directed the disaster to Pei Cheng, saying: "Mother, I think this family has offended the villain."

The old lady frowned and said: "What nonsense are you talking about? The family is in a good state, how could you offend the villain."

"Didn't mother find out that since Pei Cheng moved back to the main house, the family's troubles have been one after another." Hu Xiayun said seriously, "First, Jiang Yanzhi fell into the water, which made the relationship between the Jiangliu family worse. , and now Song Wu fell into the water again, you said, isn't this a villain who violated the original good Feng Shui at home??

The old lady felt that what Hu Xiayun said made sense, but hesitated for a moment, and said, "If it's not because of Cheng Pei's return, it's because of something else..."

"But the family has been doing well before, and nothing happened." Hu Xiayun immediately said, "As soon as Pei Cheng came back with Jiang Yanzhi, there were so many things. Who else could it be?"

The old lady stopped talking.

After a while, the old lady said: "Which is right and which is wrong, I will invite an eminent monk to take a look. If it is true that Pei Cheng's return has violated the Feng Shui of the family, let him go back to the side house."

Hu Xiayun's expression brightened.
