Chapter 126 Where is the real Cheng girl?
The people in the next room were kneeling on the ground.
In the middle of winter, the north wind blew in from the window, making people shiver.
But why are some people sweating profusely?
"Everyone, please introduce yourselves."
Pei Yanli stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at the person kneeling on the ground, and spoke chilling words in the calmest tone.
"If I hear any more of that gossip once you leave this door, I'll have someone come to your door and cut off your tongues!"
"Your Majesty, please spare my life, Your Majesty, please spare my life..."
Some people regretted it too late.
I really shouldn't have come here to spread gossip for a few taels of silver.
Now it's hurting itself.
Several people who looked like maids in the small room opposite quietly left and went downstairs.
They originally wanted to wait for Cheng Shuyi to have a quarrel with those people, and then go over to fish in troubled waters and publicize what Cheng Shuyi had done six years ago.
Who knew the prince would suddenly appear?
It seems that the big show tonight cannot be performed, so they should quickly escape from this dangerous place.
It would be over if the prince recognized me.
Pei Yanli took care of the problem next door, and Cheng Shuyi felt relieved.
She took a piece of pulled noodles from the plate, pulled it a few times, tore it into pieces and put it into the pot to cook.
Pei Yanli finished his business next door and came over, and her noodles were just cooked and out of the pot.
"Meet the prince——"
Shen Zhou and Lin Yu stood up respectfully and saluted.
Pei Yanli nodded and turned his gaze to Cheng Shuyi: "Where's the child?"
"I went downstairs to buy candied haws."
Cheng Shuyi took his son's bowl and filled it with noodles for Pei Yanli. "You can find a place to eat by yourself. I'll go back after I finish eating."
Shen Zhou and Lin Yu invited her to dinner tonight, so Pei Yanli was not suitable to be here.
Cheng Shuyi sent the Regent away with a bowl of noodles and told him to find a place to eat by himself.
This action shocked Shen Zhou and Lin Yu.
"Then I'll wait for you downstairs, take your time eating." Pei Yanli took the noodles and obediently went downstairs to find a place to eat.
As soon as Pei Yanli left, Shen Zhou and Lin Yu finally relaxed.
Sit down and continue eating.
"Sister, you and the prince have a really good relationship." Shen Zhou said jokingly.
She didn't even dare to talk to Shen Ting like that at home.
"It's okay. He often quarrels with me." Cheng Shuyi walked to the window.
The four children downstairs had already bought some candied haws and were picking up stones and throwing them into the river in front of Shengjing Yiwei's main gate.
Cheng Shuyi shouted, "Chang'er, Yan'er, bring your brothers and sisters up here. I have gifts for you."
The purpose of having this meal was to celebrate the promotion of her two godsons.
She naturally prepared gifts.
The four children threw all the stones in their hands into the water and turned around to run upstairs.
But only Chang'er and Yan'er went upstairs.
"Godmother, as scheduled, she went downstairs to play with the prince." Shen Huaichang said sensibly.
"Then leave them alone."
Cheng Shuyi took out two long small boxes from behind, one for each of you, and said, "This is a gift from your godmother for your promotion. Take it."
The two children bowed to her happily before taking the things.
"Thank you, godmother!"
When the box was opened, there were two brushes that looked identical.
But the details are different.
"These two pens look similar, but Chang'er's nib is made of goat hair, while Yan'er's nib is made of wolf hair."
Cheng Shuyi gave a special explanation to avoid any misunderstanding in the future.
"The goat-hair brush is soft, and the strokes it writes are plump, graceful and round, which is more suitable for Changge'er."
"Brother Yan practices martial arts daily, and his wolf-hair brush is hard, suitable for people with strong wrist strength."
"My sister is thoughtful."
Shen Zhou looked at the pen in the box and knew at a glance how valuable it was.
She was flattered. "This pen holder is pure white and smooth. Is it made of jade? And the pearl on the top of the pen is so precious!"
Cheng Shuyi explained: "It's not jade, it's imitation ivory craftsmanship."
"Ivory!" Shen Zhou was even more shocked. "Is it the giant beast with a long nose and fan-shaped ears mentioned in ancient books?"
"Oh my, this is too valuable. We can't have it, we can't have it..."
Having said that, Shen Zhou pushed the box back.
Even on the desk in the emperor's study, there are only a few ivory pens.
How can they use such an expensive pen!
Cheng Shuyi pressed the pen into the two children's hands again and said, "There's no need to make such a fuss, sisters. This is a replica, not real ivory."
"I boycott the ivory trade."
The two were still a little worried, "Is it really a replica?"
Lin Yu continued, "But the pearls on this pen top are worth quite a bit of money, right? Yan'er can't afford it."
Cheng Shuyi grilled a piece of pork belly for himself, dipped it in cumin powder on both sides, wrapped it in lettuce leaves and put it into his mouth.
"Pearls aren't expensive either." She said, "My Pearl House is opening the day after tomorrow. If you two sisters come and support me, I'll give you a discount."
The flyers for the Pearl Tower will only be delivered to each mansion tomorrow morning, and the styles have not been announced yet.
The two of them had only heard Cheng Shuyi say it.
"We must go and support our sister."
-
Knowing that the Regent is waiting downstairs.
Shen Zhou and Lin Yu didn't dare to spend too long on this meal.
They dispersed after a while.
Shengjing Yiwei is just across the river from Pingxi Lane, and you can reach it by crossing the stone bridge.
The three women came on foot and left on foot.
Pei Yanli rode a horse.
He led the horse, let the two kids sit on it, and he and Cheng Shuyi strolled home together.
"Did you hear the gossip just now?" Pei Yanli asked tentatively.
"I heard it." Cheng Shuyi looked up at him, raised an eyebrow and said bluntly, "And I have a rough guess as to who spread it."
She was not affected at all and spoke her mind.
This made Pei Yanli feel a lot more at ease.
He said helplessly: "Mother is too anxious, but do you really not care at all?"
"What do you care about?" Cheng Shuyi let go of his hand, stroked up his arm, and said jokingly: "I did seduce you, didn't I?"
Although the medicine she bought six years ago was fake, her purpose was not to seduce him.
But the result was what she wanted, no matter what the process was like.
Besides, it has already happened and she can't change it.
Pei Yanli held down her restless hand and said that when they got home, he would make her regret teasing him.
"Shuyi, there is something I don't understand."
"Since you are taking over the identity of the only daughter of the Marquis of Changyang, then where is the real only daughter of the Marquis of Changyang?"
After two trips to Yun City, Pei Yanli knew Cheng Shuyi's true identity.
She is from Yun City, so where is the real daughter of the Cheng family?
Cheng Shuyi shook his head, "I don't know."
"I can only guess. Since I can travel between ancient and modern times, it means that traveling through books, rebirth, the end of the world, mind reading, and systems are also possible."
"Perhaps she has also obtained her own golden finger and has gone to live a new life somewhere else."
Cheng Shuyi babble out a bunch of unfamiliar words.
Pei Yanli didn't understand at all, "What do you mean by transmigrating into a book, the end of the world, and what is the system?"
"That's it..." Cheng Shuyi opened his mouth, not knowing how to explain: "I'll download a Tomato novel for you when I have time."
This world is also a huge tomato novel.
