Chapter 136 Provocation
"We are not husband and wife, but what did he call you that day..." Song Yujin's tone was full of surprise, but he couldn't help but continue asking, wanting to get a more definite answer.
"Ange must have called the wrong name accidentally." Ji Zhisui answered while fiddling with the mint in his hand.
After all, Pei Yian's way of addressing himself that day was normal.
Myself and Ang are just family.
After getting a more certain answer, Song Yujin couldn't stop smiling.
"Maybe I misunderstood." So they are not husband and wife. Little Bohe and Pei Yian have nothing to do with each other. That's great!
"Mr. Song, what did you mean by what you said just now?" Ji Zhisui was curious about this question.
"Mr. Pei must have been hiding a lot from you. Aren't you curious about why he was poisoned, and who put the Five Poison Powder in his body?"
This Five Poison Powder is a rare poison, and there are not many people in the world who possess it. I'm afraid that Mr. Pei has been involved in a lot of troubles before, and if Little Bohe continues to stay with him, she might also be affected.
Ji Zhisui lowered her eyes and looked at the green mint leaves in front of her. Having read the plot of the original book, she naturally knew who was responsible for the poison in Pei Yian's body. It was none other than the current ruler.
In order to show his kindness, he did not kill all the Pei family members, but he was afraid that Pei Yian would cause trouble, so he poisoned him, causing him to lose all his martial arts skills and suffer pain all over his body.
If it weren't for the temporary containment of the spiritual spring water, I'm afraid Ang's current condition would be even worse.
The original book mentioned that Pei Yian began to turn evil and his mind became twisted due to the successive departure of his relatives and the various tortures and hardships he suffered in Qizhou County. However, these plots were briefly mentioned. The book mainly described the revenge scenes after he returned to the capital and killed people everywhere.
But now, he had traveled through time, like a butterfly, and inadvertently changed the course of some plots, helping Mrs. Pei and Old Madam Pei, who were supposed to die on the road to exile, avoid disaster.
She used her own skills to open a restaurant with the Pei family. Their life became fulfilling and prosperous, making the development of the story go against the plot of the original novel.
Although the direction of the plot has been changed, she does not regret saving the Pei family. They are so good and should not have ended up like the original book.
The same goes for Ang, who should be a bright and cheerful person. He should not have hatred in his heart and be blinded by hatred.
She did not regret doing these things, at least for her, these things
"This is An Ge's business, there's no need for us to care so much, right?" Ji Zhisui looked at the man in front of him with a wary expression. This man came to him and said so much. Could it be that he wanted to know something from him, or maybe he knew some inside story?
If this person has any bad intentions next time, she will definitely not show mercy!
Song Yujin immediately noticed the defensive look on the woman's face, feeling somewhat helpless. He hurriedly explained, "Little Mint, I'm sad when you look at me like that. I don't mean anything else, I'm just worried about you."
Pei Yian’s previous identity was definitely not simple, and he didn’t want Ji Zhisui to be involved.
Although Song Yujin's expression and tone were serious, Ji Zhisui still did not let down his guard. Perhaps this guy was always casual and joking in front of him, so what he said was not very credible in front of him.
Who knows if this person has ulterior motives?
"Okay, okay, I won't dwell on this matter." In order to let Xiao Mint let down his guard, Song Yujin didn't plan to continue dwelling on this matter.
Anyway, he had already heard from Xiao Bohe that she and Pei Yian were not husband and wife. Thinking of the other party's defensive and disgusted eyes, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He hasn't done anything yet, but the other party has already started to assert their sovereignty?
But Xiao Mint didn't take this matter to heart at all. From this perspective, he won.
Song Yujin was in a very good mood after winning a battle. He squatted down and helped Ji Zhisui take care of the mint plant.
This mint plant is growing well. Ji Zhisui is currently transplanting it, planting the lush mint leaves into other pots.
Now that someone wants to help her take on this job, she naturally doesn't refuse. It was this person who wanted to say bad things about An Ge before. Since he wants to work, then let him do it.
Ji Zhisui stood up and prepared to do other things. Perhaps because she had been squatting for too long, when she stood up, she felt a black screen in front of her eyes and was a little unsteady.
Song Yujin noticed that she was a little shaky, and immediately reacted and stood up to support the staggering person.
He asked with concern in his voice: "Little Mint, what's wrong with you? Are you okay?"
Ji Zhisui slowed down, and the dark scene in front of her eyes became brighter. She shook her head and said, "I'm fine, I just didn't stand firmly."
"You probably have insufficient Qi and blood. I'll take your pulse and prescribe some medicine for you later."
"Sui Niang." A cold and gloomy voice came from behind.
Ji Zhisui turned around and saw Pei Yian standing by the door, holding something in his hands.
Those dark eyes were staring at him... in the direction of his hand.
Ji Zhisui looked over and found that her right arm was still being supported by someone, and the distance between her and Song Yujin was a little too close.
Realizing this, Ji Zhisui felt a little flustered. She herself didn't even know where this panic came from. She immediately stepped back and stayed away from Song Yujin, fearing that she would be involved in any way with him.
Song Yujin didn't make any movement, and even looked straight at Pei Yian, with the corners of his eyebrows and eyes raised.
It is a silent provocation and declaration of war.
"Brother An, I squatted for too long. When I stood up, my vision went dark and I couldn't stand steadily, so Mr. Song supported me from the side." Ji Zhisui hurriedly explained.
Even after explaining, she still felt guilty about Pei Yian's silent expression.
Pei Yian didn't say anything, but just walked towards her step by step with the thing in his hand.
When the man came closer, Ji Zhisui realized that what he was holding was mint, and there were not just one but three plants in total.
"Brother An, where did you get so many mints?" Ji Zhisui asked in surprise.
Pei Yian handed the mint in his hand to her. His face and expression were as normal as ever, as if the gloomy look in his eyes before was just an illusion.
"Sui Niang, you haven't been using mint a lot lately. I collected these from somewhere else."
What he didn't say was how much effort it took to collect these things. He ran all over the market but couldn't find any mint, so he had no choice but to go to the clinic to ask.
There were only mint leaves at the clinic, so he paid the doctor and followed his instructions to the back mountain, where he picked a few mint plants, put them in the soil, and brought them back from the back mountain.
