Chapter 190: Extra 8: Still Playing? (Pei Ji and Jiang Rou)
That night, it rained heavily and hail fell from time to time, making the doors and windows crackle.
Jiang Rou called Pei Ji several times, but he refused to come in. Finally, Jiang Rou lost her temper and he compromised.
The two of them lay on the bed, separated by a quilt, staring at each other, neither of them able to fall asleep.
In the end, it was Pei Ji who started the conversation.
"Sister Rou'er, if one day you find out that I've lied to you, will you leave me?"
Jiang Rou's heart skipped a beat. "Could it be that you've already married?"
“…Not really.”
Pei Ji turned sideways and looked at her through the quilt. "But I have a home and parents. There are some things I haven't had time to tell you."
"oh."
Jiang Rou didn't seem to care much. "The family doesn't mind adding two sets of bowls and chopsticks. We can just take them over when the time comes. But we need to build a bigger wooden house, two rooms, oh no, three rooms, so the children can live there too."
"child?"
"Yes, I am the clan leader. If I don't have any children, who will inherit the position of clan leader?"
Jiang Rou propped herself up and said, "Don't tell me you don't plan to have a child."
Pei Ji suppressed his laughter and said nothing.
"Hey, say something!"
Jiang Rou was a little annoyed and reached out to pull his quilt.
Pei Ji covered himself with the quilt and laughed even harder.
Jiang Rou became even angrier. She rolled up her sleeves, crawled over to him, and tickled him through the quilt.
"Do you want a child or not? Just tell me clearly!"
Pei Ji seemed to be very ticklish, and when she tickled him, he couldn't stop laughing.
"Yes! I want ten or eight, I want a whole nest, sister Rou'er, good sister, stop scratching!"
"Who wants a litter for you? Do you think I'm a pig?"
Pei Ji's waist was the most ticklish area, and Jiang Rou noticed it, so she specifically tickled his waist.
Not satisfied with scratching through the quilt, he put his hand inside to scratch.
I don’t know where I scratched, but the person under the quilt suddenly groaned.
"Why are you pretending?" Jiang Rou hit him again.
Now, Pei Ji finally lifted the quilt, revealing his red face.
She held her hand down and said, "Good sister, stop playing."
"No, you haven't told me yet. Do you think I'm a little pig?"
As she said that, Jiang Rou tried to break free from him.
"Rou'er!" Pei Ji's voice contained a warning, "Be obedient."
Jiang Rou refused to do so. She chuckled twice and put her other hand into his quilt.
Suddenly, the sky began to spin.
The quilt was lifted up at some point, and Jiang Rou was trapped underneath.
Pei Ji pressed her down and raised her hands above her head.
Jiang Rou saw that under the sleeves of his white inner shirt, his arms were bulging with blue veins and his blood vessels were throbbing.
The young man's turbulent and passionate eyes were full of aggression, and he looked at her like a hungry wolf.
Rou'er's lips are so beautiful, plump and rosy, I really want to eat them in one bite...
"Still playing?"
The hoarse voice entered Jiang Rou's ears, making her head numb, and her voice trembled involuntarily.
"No, no more playing."
Pei Ji laughed, "Little fool."
He freed one hand and touched the top of her head, then lay down beside her.
The sound of rain gradually stopped, the night deepened, and both of them could hear each other's heartbeats.
And the sound of swallowing saliva.
"Pei Ji."
"Um?"
The girl didn't say anything else, just raised her head.
"Bo~"
Kissed his face.
The boy's heart beat like a drum, "Sister Rou'er."
"Um?"
"It was too fast. I didn't feel it."
"…Are you stupid? Can't you kiss it back yourself if you don't feel it?"
silence.
Time seemed to have stood still.
The boy's body was stiff and he didn't move. Finally, Jiang Rou mustered up the courage and kissed him on the lips.
This time, he felt it.
Very soft and sweet.
He didn't give her a chance to escape. He held her waist and kissed her for a long time until she was out of breath, then he reluctantly let go.
In the dim light, the two saw each other's slightly swollen lips and giggled.
——
Zhou Dian came back a month later.
He ran home excitedly, carrying candy figures, cakes, and various small toys he bought from the city.
"Little bastard, look what Master bought you?"
The first thing I saw when I entered the room was Pei Ji kneading dough.
His sky was falling.
"I don't agree to this marriage!"
"Why? Could it be that you want to marry me yourself?"
"...Well you little bastard!"
Zhou Dian was so angry that he wanted to hit her, but Pei Ji grabbed his wrist and said, "A gentleman should use words, not fists."
"Go to hell, old man. I'm not a gentleman!"
Zhou Dian was furious.
Because he couldn't bear to hit Jiang Rou, even if Pei Ji didn't take action, he couldn't have slapped her.
But Pei Ji's blocking would make Rourou think that he really wanted to hit her, and he would never be able to clear himself even if he jumped into the Yellow River.
"You! Where did this wild man come from?"
"Savage?" Pei Ji felt a little amused. He was the eldest son of the Marquis of Yongyi and the great general who protected the country, yet he was called a savage?
But that person happened to be Rou'er's master, so he had to endure it. "He's from the capital."
"Do you have parents at home, a house, or money?"
When Jiang Rou heard him ask this, she immediately became unhappy, "I married his body, not his money."
"Shut up!"
The old man blew his beard and glared at her, then shouted at Pei Ji, "Speak!"
Pei Ji pursed his lips and said, "My parents are still alive. We have a few houses and a few servants, and we have enough money to live on."
Jiang Rou was surprised. "A house? A servant? Your family is so rich, and you still work as a prostitute?"
Pei Ji smiled sheepishly and whispered in her ear, "Okay, Rou'er, I'll explain it to you later."
Now, Zhou Dian finally figured it out.
"You don't even know his background, and you still want to follow him?"
Jiang Rou corrected, "I didn't follow him, he followed me!"
"Shut up, I don't agree anyway!"
"You have to agree even if you don't want to. I am the clan leader now! Do you dare to disobey me?"
“…”
——
Zhou Dian finally succumbed to the tyranny of the young patriarch.
"You two can get married, but you promised me to study medicine well, and then..."
The young couple interrupted him at the same time, "Then stay by your side and take care of you in your old age."
Zhou Dian snorted proudly, then secretly looked at Jiang Rou, his eyes red.
This little girl lost her parents when she was three years old. He raised her with every bit of food and drink, not just her piss.
If he didn't have to go out to practice medicine regularly, he would not have entrusted Rourou to that guy Li Er.
He thought that there would be plenty of time in the future for the master and disciple to spend together, but he didn't know that this dead girl was kidnapped at the age of fifteen.
Zhou Dian is back, and Ling Yuan's affairs have come to an end. Pei Ji decides to take the little girl back to Beijing to meet his parents and discuss the betrothal gifts and marriage.
Jiang Rou was very nervous. "Are your family members easy to get along with? Are they as fierce as Mrs. Chu's parents-in-law?"
"Of course not."
Pei Ji smiled and pinched her face, then carried her on his back and walked out along the winding path.
"My parents are very kind, and my mother is also very good at making peach blossom cakes. The peach blossoms have fallen this year, so it's a bit too late. I'll ask her to make it for you next year, okay?"
"good."
The two of them talked as they walked, laughing all the way.
Jiang Rou was struggling over whether to spend a huge amount of money to buy a donkey cart, when she saw an army in the distance, riding their horses, braving the wind and rushing towards them.
The leading strong man saw them from a distance and began to shout: "General, so you are here, you are looking for death for us!"
Pei Ji raised the corner of his lips in surprise, "Monkey?"
