Chapter 33 Summer Banquet (1)

Somewhere outside the window, the sound of summer cicadas chirping suddenly came, and the fine window screens covered on the window were penetrated directly.

The second lady seemed to be upset when she heard it, frowned and waved her hand.

Mother Hua said nodded and went out. After a while, the surroundings were quiet and there was no more cicadas. The second lady then leaned onto the couch and sipped in her small cup of tea.

"You said you were rescued by Xiaojiu from the pile of refugees when you were in Hongdu?"

Ye Kui sat on the brocade and whispered: "That's how it is."

The second wife gently placed the teacup aside with graceful manner, glanced at her side, shook her head and said, "It was originally Xiaojiu's business. It's not easy for me, a sister-in-law, to reach my uncle's yard, but where is the Pei family? Even the girl who is in charge of cleaning has been carefully selected. Not everyone can stay in the Pei family."

"It is extremely inappropriate to continue living in the wing room of Jingqueyuan as you are. I look..."

"Second sister-in-law is so excited today!" Before the second wife could finish her words, she was suddenly interrupted by a voice. When the curtain was lifted, Pei Changge entered the house in a silver-blue robe.

The old man of the Pei family died early, and the second master's wife naturally became the eldest sister-in-law. You said that the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother, and the second wife's eldest son Pei Qinglin is only three years younger than Pei Changge, so their uncle and sister-in-law have no such taboos. When they get along, they are more like mother-son who are intimate.

When the second wife saw someone coming in, she smiled, "Look at you, I've brought the person over and asked a few questions, and you came in a hurry. If you don't know, you think I've pulled your wife here!"

Pei Changge sneered in his heart, but a shy smile appeared on his face, "My second sister-in-law is used to making fun of me. I'm not afraid that people don't understand the rules and hit you, right?"

"I've all been on the battlefield, but why do you think it's not as steady as your starling?" The second lady pulled him to the couch intimately, "I heard that you brought a girl back and took it directly to the yard. How can I not mutter in my heart? Your unregulated temperament, I'm really afraid that you will bring back someone's lady!"

Pei Changge looked at Ye Kui quietly. Seeing her look frightened, she blinked at him and knew nothing was wrong. He immediately turned his head and said to the second wife: "It turns out that in the eyes of my second sister-in-law, I am such a bastard?"

"Isn't it just a bastard! Your father and mother don't agree, but you insist on leading your troops to Cangcheng, you're not a bastard!"

Pei Changge felt even more cold when he heard this. Regardless of whether the old man allowed it or not, the emperor suddenly remembered that he was asking him to go to war and didn't know who was behind the scenes!

Ye Kui, who had been lowering her head, was stunned when she heard the second wife's words. She still remembered the ebony hairpin that saved their lives when she first met Pei Changge.

He said it was his mother's relic.

Since he is a relic, it is naturally impossible for his mother to live. So who is the mother mentioned by the second wife? Is Pei Changge a concubine?

"Okay, second sister-in-law, don't scold me." Pei Changge had a bitter face, "Look, you haven't eaten yet, just a girl, why bother to waste your time on meals?"

The second wife frowned, "How are you going to do it?"

Now that the Ye family cannot go back to the place for the time being, Fengcheng Yu Yekui is not familiar with the place, they have never thought about what to do next. In the early years, Qiuxi encouraged him to buy a small house outside to play, so he should agree, but he thought that he would spend more money in the military camp. But now, even if he needs it, he can't buy a suitable house. In recent years, the prices of houses in Fengcheng have been rising continuously. If he wants to buy it, he will have to ask for money from the old man...

Seeing that he suddenly became silent, the second wife thought he had other ideas in her heart, and couldn't help but look at Ye Kui carefully. If it weren't for the thoughts of others, how could she have saved the person so kindly and brought him back to Fengcheng. Over the years, the name of the Pei family Xiaojiu has become increasingly famous in Fengcheng, so she might as well be a favor.

"Since you are an orphan, I think you have no place to go. You are away all year round, and there are not enough girls and women in the yard, so you can stay. I will pick a few more people for you tomorrow. Since I am back, I should have a good time." The second wife looked at Pei Changge's eyes and said something very well.

Pei Changge was not ready to object after listening to it.

It is not a bad thing to be able to stay in the Pei family for the time being. Even if you want to send someone back to the Ye family in the future, there are many ways to do it. It is also convenient for the maid to act.

After leaving the second wife's yard, Pei Changge led the people to another secluded path.

This road ran across the Pei family's garden. Ye Kui smelled the fragrance of flowers in the garden and honestly repeated what he said to Qiuying and the second wife and others before.

Pei Changge sneered after hearing this and cursed: "The hands are getting longer and longer. I have become like this here, and I can't tell what the starlings are there!"

Listening to his words, Ye Kui remembered the mother whom the second wife mentioned before. She was a little curious but afraid of asking awkwardly, so she simply shut up. After a while, she said, "Is there any news about Chi Po?"

"No news has been heard yet. However, Hongdu's situation is not very good, I'm afraid..."

"Others are still anxious, but Chi Po shouldn't have any trouble that easily." Ye Kui pinched Bai Hua casually and interrupted him urgently. She really didn't dare to think about it anymore. If it weren't for the hairpin, she might have let Chi Po go like this, but when the hairpin was on her, she would have no way to find Chi Po.

Pei Changge obviously noticed her uneasiness, so he changed the subject and said, "There will be a banquet tomorrow, and you will go with me."

"Hmm?" Ye Kui was stunned, "Accompany you to the banquet?"

"Of course, the Ye family members received a post from the princess' banquet. With Chunxi's personality and her current status, I am afraid they will go there. You are now going with me as my maid. One is not necessary to face the Ye family, and the other is, you can also take a look at the situation." Pei Changge explained in detail.

Ye Kui will naturally not miss such a good opportunity.

On the evening of the next day, she followed Pei Changge out to the princess's mansion.

Princess Liu Zhu, the most beloved by the emperor, is only fourteen years old, but she had her own mansion outside the palace when she was young. However, the princess still lives in the palace, and this princess's mansion has become a place for banquets and entertainment.

When he got on the carriage, Ye Kui's back suddenly hurt. If he hadn't been holding his hands tightly, he would have fallen. Pei Changge subconsciously reached out to hold her, and the calluses on his palm fell into Ye Kui's eyes.

There are deep traces...

When he was in Taohua Village, he didn't have these things in his hands...

Not far behind her, Qiu Ying was frightened by her movements and screamed, then said, "Master Jiu, look at Qiu Ye's body, how can she go out? Or should I follow her?"
