When Pei Quyan saw the housekeeper of Pei's residence coming in, Xiao Zhengyao had just brought Xiao Yi over to congratulate him.
Seeing that Pei's housekeeper looked unhappy, he asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?!"
The housekeeper of the Pei residence came forward and whispered something in Pei Quyan's ear. Then Pei Quyan smiled and said, "Brother Zhong, Brother Xiao, I'm sorry, I have to leave for a while."
Having said that, Pei Quyan told Ji Yuqi to treat the distinguished guests here well, and then left quickly.
Ji Yuqi smiled and nodded in agreement.
Although the Pei residence’s steward’s voice was subtle enough, the words “The secret guards have sent word that the young master is currently in Jincheng” still clearly fell on her eardrums…
When the old lady of the Pei family led Ji Niancheng downstairs, Ji Yuqi was alone, shuttling between various families.
Although she hadn't attended any chaebol banquets for many years, when Ji Fengran was still alive, he would always take her to upper-class gatherings. It had to be said that Ji Fengran had trained her to be very good at diplomacy.
Anyone who talked to her was amused by her and felt very happy.
Pei Quyan said: The Du family is the most legitimate family among the Pei family's in-laws.
The so-called main vein is probably the closest one.
The second is: accessory pulse.
Next: secondary pulse.
Originally, Ji Yuqi was a little confused about the relationship between the Du family and the Pei family. It was not until the old lady of the Pei family brought Ji Niancheng over that she figured it out.
It turns out that the Du family is the old lady’s maiden family from the Pei family.
The most prestigious family in Weicheng.
Although he has not been to the imperial capital, his comprehensive financial power is not low in Country Z.
The Du family's patriarch and mistress, upon seeing the old lady from the Pei family, first called her affectionately, "Aunt."
He turned his gaze to Ji Niancheng who had already rubbed against Ji Yuqi.
The Pei family mistress asked, "What's the name of the Pei family's little prince?!"
Ji Yuqi replied: "Pei Nianzhi."
The Du Family Patriarch said: "Nianzhi?! 'zhi' refers to everything, so this is a good name."
The Du family's mistress said, "According to the long-standing rules of the Pei family: female relatives cannot participate in the ceremony of the direct line of descent. After the crown prince's ceremony, I only caught a glimpse of Nianzhi from afar in Qin Palace. I was too far away just now, so I couldn't see him clearly. Now I can see clearly: Nianzhi and Yucheng look exactly like when they were children. Yucheng is so young, and he has become a father. It is truly enviable."
The Du family head said, "Isn't it?! Among the six ancient families in Jingcheng, the Pei family has always been the most blessed. Yucheng has a successor at such a young age."
The Du family's mistress said, "The Pei family also needs to divide people, okay?!"
As she spoke, the Du family's mistress involuntarily glanced at the group of female relatives not far away, then smiled and said, "The Pei family's Chenyuan doesn't have such good fortune. I heard that the month before last, the head mistress of Chenyuan had a difficult labor when giving birth to her fourth princess and almost died on the operating table. It is said that the mistress of Chenyuan has lost her fertility. Back then, Chenyuan put so much thought and effort into the division of the family, and now, look, there's not even a legitimate heir left. Is this retribution?"
When the mistress of the Du family turned her head to look at the group of female relatives, Ji Yuqi didn't understand what she was looking at.
At this moment, I suddenly realized.
Of course, shortly after the dinner, when the Pei family of four came to congratulate Pei Quyan, Ji Yuqi felt that the old lady and the young lady of the Pei family looked at her in a strange way. Especially the old lady of the Pei family, who was clearly smiling, but there was no trace of smile in her eyes.
