Chapter 180 New Store
Pei Yian's request was neither excessive nor difficult, so the county magistrate and the yamen runner Zhou agreed.
The governor of Huizhou City gave a lot of rewards, and the county magistrate gave part of them to Pei Yian. Although Pei Yian said that these were not his merits, they were what he deserved.
Of course, the original reward cannot be reduced. After this, Pei Yian has a considerable amount of money in his hands, which can be used to buy things for his marriage with Sui Niang.
He bought a lot of things, some of which he bought in Huizhou City, and some of which he bought from ship merchants. These things were at least the best he could get at the moment.
He kept all these things in the room and did it in secret.
Although Ji Zhisui didn't know, it didn't prevent someone from telling her.
Pei Xinghai found a beautiful red silk ribbon in the room. After thinking about it, he realized that these were his third uncle's things, so they must belong to his third aunt.
So, she brought the beautiful red silk ribbon to Ji Zhisui and looked at her third aunt with shining eyes.
"Third Aunt, here...here you are."
Ji Zhisui was a little confused, "Xingxing, where did you get this silk ribbon? Don't just take other people's things!"
Pei Xinghai pouted and complained, "Xingxing...I never took other people's things without permission."
Feeling that his words alone were not convincing enough, Pei Xinghai walked straight forward and pulled Ji Zhisui towards his room.
He brought the people to a state of joy, pointed at those things and said, "Third uncle's, that is, Third aunt's."
Ji Zhisui looked at the joyful scene in the room and couldn't help being a little surprised.
She didn't know when these things appeared at home. Were they prepared by Ang?
After Pei Yian entered the room with the things in his hand, his expression turned into surprise.
He never expected that Sui Niang would suddenly appear in his room, her eyes fixed on the things he had prepared.
Looking at the person standing aside, who has not spoken a word.
Pei Yian's hand holding the thing was tightening unconsciously. He was nervous and a little scared.
What would Sui Niang think when she saw this? Would she think she was too anxious, or perhaps she didn't have such an idea at all?
If it is really the latter, what should I do?
Pei Yian's mind was in a mess, and he didn't have the wise, calm, and strategic look he had when he was searching for clues and interrogating criminals.
Ji Zhisui didn't actually have any complicated emotions in her heart. She was just shocked. It must cost a lot of money to buy so many things, right?
All of Ango's money is in his own hands. Where did he get the money to buy so many things?
This man seemed to be hiding something from me again!
Seeing that the person in front of him was silent for a long time, Pei Yian concealed his anxiety and said, "Sui Niang, I...I didn't mean to hide it from you. Of course, if you don't like it, I can not do it."
Ji Zhisui realized that these seemed to be used for weddings. The Pei family had few relatives and friends in Qizhou County, so these things were naturally not prepared for others. They should be used by themselves.
The only ones in the family who could use these were herself and An Ge, so she didn't have much objection and even felt a little happy in her heart.
The two were husband and wife in name only, but in reality they had nothing, not even worshipping heaven and earth. Now that he had prepared all these, it was full of ritual, and made Ji Zhisui feel that someone cared about him.
No wonder Pei seemed to be preparing to embroider a red wedding dress recently. When she saw me, her face looked a little unnatural. Since she was forcing me, this made sense.
"I don't dislike it, but An Ge, where did you get the money to buy all these things?"
Seeing that there was no disgust or dissatisfaction on the other party's face, and that the surprise he had prepared had been discovered, Pei Yian explained the origins of these things clearly.
Ji Zhisui looked at the joyful expressions in the room and thought of the wound on the other person's back. It would not be an exaggeration to say that these things were worth his life.
She said with some dismay, "Brother An, if you need money, why don't you just come to me? It's not that easy to make money from the government office!"
"I promise I won't do that again. Suisui, don't be angry, just smile." Pei Yian stepped forward and pinched Ji Zhisui's puffy little face, trying to make a smile appear on his face.
Of course, all he got was someone's angry glare.
Maybe because of his martial arts training, the man had slight calluses on his hands. When he said this, his voice was slightly hooked, which inexplicably carried a hint of allure.
Ji Zhisui just felt as if someone had suddenly teased him.
Pei Xinghai looked at his third uncle and then at his third aunt, with deep curiosity in his eyes.
Perhaps his gaze was too focused, Ji Zhisui realized that there was a child in the room, and it was inappropriate for two people to be pulling each other like this.
She pushed away the people around her and met Xingxing's curious eyes with a look of embarrassment on her face. "If everything is fine, I'll leave first."
After saying that, Ji Zhisui turned and left.
Pei Yian knew that Sui Niang must be shy. Meeting Xingxing's curious eyes, he stepped forward and put the red ribbon back in her hand. "Xingxing, be good. These things belong to Third Aunt. Don't touch them."
"Third Uncle, I understand." Pei Xinghai didn't know what the two were saying, he just didn't understand why these two people didn't send it to the third aunt since it belonged to her!
That night, Ji Zhisui originally wanted to give Pei Yian the money he had kept here. Almost all of his private money was with him, and even the things he bought were earned from the extra money he earned at the government office. This kind of money was not easy to earn and could even be life-threatening.
Pei Yian rejected her kindness and only took out a few taels of silver as a token of his appreciation.
"Sui Niang, since we are together, my things are yours, and my private money should also be under your control, right?"
"But..." Ji Zhisui wanted to say something, fearing that the other party would do something dangerous again if he had no money.
"Don't worry, Suisui. I know everything. Besides, this money is just right for expanding the store." Pei Yian rubbed her head.
The other party refused to accept it, and Ji Zhisui couldn't force him. She found that every time An Ge called Sui Sui, she could never refuse his request, and her heart seemed to soften.
Ji Zhisui thought carefully for a long time about the idea of expanding the store. At first, she wanted to go to Huizhou City, but she had lived in Qizhou County for so long that she would not be able to adapt to moving to Huizhou City.
Furthermore, the reputation of Baiwei Restaurant has spread. When people talk about Qizhou County, they will know that there is a very delicious Baiwei Restaurant here. The dishes randomly introduced every day are different and unique, and there is a great sense of mystery.
