The Male Wife

Chapter 043 The Cold War

The next day.

Pei Cheng thought that he would be called by the old lady to go to Xiyuan to beat him, but after waiting for a long time, he found that the old lady had no intention of seeing him at all, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

But when Pei Cheng finally breathed a sigh of relief, he reacted belatedly, and he seemed to have regained the distance from Jiang Linzhi at the beginning.

Sitting at the round table, Pei Cheng raised his head and glanced at the direction directly in front of him. Jiang Linzhi was still teaching Jiang Yanzhi how to write - Jiang Linzhi had been taking care of him all day.

Pei Cheng inexplicably felt a little wronged, he didn't know that one day he would be misunderstood what he had with Jiang Sanye, let alone that he would one day be restless because he was worried that Jiang Linzhi would misunderstand him and others.

With his left hand on his knee, Pei Cheng unconsciously patted his knee with his fingers. He ran into Mr. Jiang in the front yard yesterday. At first, Pei Cheng didn't think there was anything wrong, but after he went back last night, after thinking over and over again, he realized that Suddenly realized that maybe it was not a real "encounter."

However, when Jiang Sanye saw his eyes at that time, it didn't look like he was lying.

Pei Cheng took a sip of tea distractedly, but judging from the current situation, even though he and Mr. Jiang met in the front yard by chance yesterday, when this matter was reported to the old lady with embellishments, Things will not become so simple.

For example, he will be sent away from the main house for the second time and return to the side courtyard where he lived for four years-this is not what he wants.

Pei Cheng propped his chin, changed direction, and continued to meditate.

Maybe it was because he thought things were too simple before. Since Pei Cheng was reborn, his emotions have been ups and downs.In addition, he was always thinking about revenge, so he didn't care about other things, which led to him being tricked more than once.

One by one, from the kid who fell into the water to now being framed for having an affair with Mr. Jiang, Pei Cheng is very clear that he has always been in a passive position.

Jiang Linzhi let go of his hand, and signaled Jiang Yanzhi to write with his eyes.

Pei Cheng didn't notice the changes over there, and continued to immerse himself in his own world.

I don't know why, Pei Cheng always feels that since he returned to Jiang's house, what he did and what he did was drawn by a certain thread-in other words, Pei Cheng felt that he seemed to have been drawn by a certain thread since he returned to Jiang's house. At first, the Jiang family seemed to have entered a certain chess game.

And he, Pei Cheng, is just one of the little pawns.

After Jiang Yanzhi finished practicing his calligraphy, he carefully put the pen holder aside, put his hands on his knees, raised his head, and looked at Jiang Linzhi, as if asking for advice.

Jiang Linzhi didn't expect him to be able to write well within a few days, so he just glanced casually and nodded perfunctorily.

Jiang Yanzhi immediately got off the chair, walked quickly towards Pei Cheng with a pair of short legs, and then lay on Pei Cheng's lap.

Only then did Pei Cheng come to his senses, and reflexively glanced at Jiang Linzhi's direction. The man was standing in front of the bookshelf looking for something. Pei Cheng pulled the corner of his mouth down, stood up, and said, "Second Lord, let's go back first." .”

Jiang Linzhi didn't reply.

Pei Cheng took Jiang Yanzhi away in silence.

Pei Cheng suddenly became tired of such a life.From the very beginning, he was unwilling to get involved in the Jiang family's right and wrong, but what happened one after another now made him keep getting involved in the Jiang family's right and wrong.

In particular, this Jiang family also has a Hu Xiayun who is not at all reassuring.

Said that Cao Cao arrived, when Pei Cheng just returned to his yard, he saw a strange maid standing in the yard, Pei Cheng frowned.

The maid walked up a few steps and saluted, "Second young lady, I know the young master, and the servant calls for spring."

"The old lady is looking for me?" Pei Cheng replied subconsciously.

Chun Yi was stunned for a moment, and then said: "No. The servant girl was sent by the Young Madam. The Young Madam said that she wants to discuss with you the gift you will bring when you return to your mother's house."

Pei Cheng bent down, looked at Jiang Yanzhi, and said, "I want to go out and lie down first, you wait here for me."

Jiang Yanzhi pulled his originally indifferent little face, and looked at Pei Cheng expressionlessly.

Pei Cheng had a cold face, straightened his waist, and put on an iron-blooded look that he didn't want to discuss with Jiang Yanzhi at all, "Go back to your father, or go back to the house to play by yourself. I'll be back soon."

After finishing speaking, Pei Cheng signaled the servant to take Jiang Yanzhi to leave.

Chunyi hurriedly followed Pei Cheng's footsteps and left.

Jiang Yanzhi stood where he was, staring blankly at Pei Cheng's back, and when he could not see Pei Cheng at all, he drooped his head and went back the same way to find Jiang Linzhi.

Jiang Linzhi stood in front of the desk and practiced calligraphy. He heard the sound of walking from the door, raised his head, frowned, "What's wrong with your father?"

Jiang Yanzhi kept walking, "Someone is looking for daddy." So he could only come to his father.

Jiang Linzhi put down the penholder and looked at Donglai who was holding the tray.

Dong Lai put down the sweet cakes that were still emitting fragrance from the tray, and explained: "The eldest young lady came to see the lady and said that she wanted to talk about the gift that she would bring when she returned to Jiang's house tomorrow."

Jiang Linzhi didn't express his opinion, but beckoned Jiang Yanzhi to come over and continue practicing calligraphy.

Jiang Yanzhi continued to practice calligraphy obediently.

Xiyuan.

Hu Xiayun took a sip of tea lightly, looked at Pei Cheng with a smile, and said: "It seems that you haven't been back home since you got married. This time, when you go back, bring more good things back so that your family won't complain. "

Pei Cheng raised his eyebrows, Hu Xiayun's implication was that he thought the Pei family was a small family that had never seen a big world?

"Although the Pei family is not as wealthy as the Jiang family, there is still nothing missing in the family." Pei Cheng smiled, "But sister-in-law's words are intentional, and Pei Cheng thanked sister-in-law on behalf of the Pei family."

As soon as the top hat was put on, the smile on Hu Xiayun's face could no longer be held. She coughed dryly and said awkwardly: "It's not up to me, Hu Xiayun, to be the master of the Jiang family. Most of the presents you will bring back to your mother's house this time It's still the master of the mother."

Pei Cheng snorted, looked at her with a half-smile, and said, "Since it's your mother who decides, why is my sister-in-law here to talk to me?" The smile on Hu Xiayun's face couldn't hold back at all, and she pulled her face, "Pei Cheng, You're trying to embarrass me on purpose."

"Hu Xiayun, don't go too far in being a human being." Pei Cheng put down the teacup in his hand heavily, "Man is doing what the sky is watching, you'd better restrain yourself."

The atmosphere became tense for a moment.

Hu Xiayun understood that he was implying that Jiang Yanzhi fell into the water last time, but Hu Xiayun didn't feel guilty at all. She said with a cold face, "Why, it's been so long, and you still want to frame it?"

Pei Cheng sneered, "Planting and framing? Hu's parents and daughters can't do anything else, but this ability to shirk responsibility is not small."

"If you have the ability, how can you let your son fall into the water." Hu Xiayun became angry, and stood up after a while, "Pei Cheng, I called you here today to talk to you about what you will bring back to your mother's house tomorrow. Don’t bring up old stories again, like a market woman who has no knowledge.”

Pei Cheng was hit hard in the chest by Hu Xiayun's words—he still couldn't accept the reality that he was married and had children, let alone hear others describe himself as a woman.

Hu Xiayun won the quarrel, and she immediately regained her energy. She walked up to Pei Cheng, folded her arms around her chest, bent down, and said in a low voice: "I haven't learned enough from the lessons I gave you before? Do you feel that no one lives in a remote house?" It's better, Pei Cheng?"

Pei Cheng raised his eyes, stared fixedly at Hu Xiayun for a long time, and then said, "Just try it."

Hu Xiayun was so frightened by Pei Cheng's look that he took two steps back, feeling uneasy immediately.But when Hu Xiayun finally calmed down, he saw that Pei Cheng had already walked to the door.

Chunyi came up quietly and asked, "Madam, do you want to stop him?"

Hu Xiayun stretched out his hand, waved it, and said, "No, let him go. Sooner or later he will suffer."

After finishing speaking, Hu Xiayun put his hand on Chunyi's arm, walked unnaturally to the chair and sat down.

After a long while, Hu Xiayun realized with a dark face that his back was chilled by Pei Cheng's eyes just now, and he was sweating all over.

And that feeling of being about to suffocate, Hu Xiayun didn't want to experience it again.

Chunyi curled her lips, although she didn't understand, she nodded obediently and said, "Yes."

She didn't understand, since Pei Cheng had nothing to rely on, why couldn't Hu Xiayun send Pei Cheng away with two random reasons like a few years ago?If Pei Cheng was sent away, wouldn't Hu Xiayun's life be much easier now.

Pei Cheng walked to the gate of the courtyard without saying a word, feeling restless.

Uncle Jiang took the butler with him, and the butler was still reporting to him the expenses in this month's mansion, but Uncle Jiang asked the butler to pause first, and then walked up on his own initiative, saying, "Sister and sister."

Pei Cheng raised his head with a swipe, and then saw the smile on Uncle Jiang's face. He became more vigilant, but there was no change on his face. He said, "Master."

Uncle Jiang said, "Come to Xiyuan to find your mother?"

Hearing the old lady's name, Pei Cheng's heart skipped a beat. In fact, Pei Cheng felt that the old lady was more difficult to deal with than Hu Xiayun. He shook his head and said, "The old lady didn't look for me. And at this time, the old lady should be resting. Don't bother."

Pei Cheng is different from Uncle Jiang, the former can only be called the old lady, but the latter can call the old lady his mother.

In the final analysis, it is still a relationship between relatives.

Uncle Jiang said: "Then you came to Xiyuan to find Xia Yun? Is it to talk about the gift you will bring back to Jiang's house tomorrow?"

Pei Cheng nodded silently, "Yes."

Uncle Jiang said clearly: "By the way, will the second brother go back to Jiang's house with you tomorrow?"

"This is the first time I have gone back since I got married. The second master has agreed to accompany me to take a look." Pei Cheng raised his head, looked directly at Uncle Jiang, and asked, "Is there anything else, sir? If there is nothing else, I will go back to accompany you." I understand."

Uncle Jiang nodded, and after watching Pei Cheng leave, he led the butler towards the study.

The butler walked a few steps, looked back at Pei Cheng's back, and clicked his tongue.

This Pei Cheng has really changed a lot since he came back from the side courtyard.

only……

The housekeeper shook his head regretfully, marrying the master in the East Courtyard, it is estimated that this will be the case in this life.
