Chapter 50: The Fiftieth Day of Restraint Young people, you must learn to be moderate. ...
Shan Yin didn't know how Pei Yunhe was so capable.
Half the night passed, she was exhausted, but he was still refreshed.
After combing her hair carefully, he hugged her and played with her hair by her ears from behind. The tingling touch made it seem as if those words were still lingering in her ears.
Those few words were almost all in her dreams for the rest of the night.
At the end of the dream, she did the same, calling his name, waves rolling in her mind, everything was white, and he kept saying "I love you" in her ear.
Shan Yin suddenly woke up.
It didn't seem like a dream. Pei Yunhe did say "I love you" to her more than once.
She stared at the beam of light in front of the window for a moment, and the Tyndall effect also took effect on her heart.
The sounds penetrated and suddenly took on a concrete form.
"woke up?"
The mattress behind her sank in, and the refreshing scent of orange soda and the calming sandalwood enveloped her. Pei Yunhe leaned over to her ear and whispered gently.
She also didn't know why this person could always blend two incompatible temperaments so well, just like gentleness and dark and domineering nature could coexist in him.
But maybe after a long time, she got used to the smell and even developed some attachment to it.
Whenever she was awakened by this smell, she always felt particularly at peace.
So Shan Yin turned around, put his arms around Pei Yunhe's neck, and gently kissed him on the lips.
"Yeah, I'm awake."
Pei Yunhe was still not used to Shan Yin's increasingly intimate attitude and behavior towards him, and always felt flattered.
But he couldn't refuse Dan Yin's kiss, not at all.
In an instant, the mattress rebounded and sank. He pressed Shan Yin under him without saying a word, and only let go of Shan Yin after kissing her until she was unbearable. He gasped and forced himself to keep some distance from her.
That's not like him.
But he doesn't want this to happen.
"Old Chen is already downstairs. You have to get up. There is no time to waste today."
Pei Yunhe said angrily.
Shan Yin was a little confused by his kiss. After a while, Pei Yunhe had already walked around behind her and was helping her put on her underwear.
She shrank back, a little embarrassed, but he straightened her out seriously and methodically adjusted her shoulder straps.
"Dan Yin, don't move. If you move again, we will really be late today."
He was gritting his teeth and holding it back. If she continued to wander around naked like this, he was really afraid that he would not be able to hold it back anymore.
"Oh, okay."
Shan Yin glanced at him from the corner of his eye and chose to obey.
Today they had to go with Xi Minxia to visit an old friend in the suburbs of Nanqiao, as Xi Minxia had instructed them to do yesterday.
After coming out of the maternal and child health hospital yesterday, Xi Minxia adjusted her mentality again and again.
She tried her best not to think too much and not to put any pressure on Shan Yin, saying that she and Pei Kelang were not such old-fashioned parents and would not interfere with the choices of these young people.
It’s just that Dan Yin is weak, his parents passed away early, and he has never been able to recover from some minor ailments since he was a child.
Like Pei Yunhe, Xi Minxia felt that this was not a long-term solution.
It happened to be the Dragon Boat Festival, and Pei Yunhe had a few days off, so Xi Minxia suggested that the whole family go visit a distant relative.
Before retiring, that relative was an expert in gynecology and had treated many dignitaries. When he was still practicing, it was extremely difficult to get an appointment with him.
It just so happened that he had returned to Nanqiao to recuperate the day before yesterday, and Xi Minxia had been planning to go there for a long time. So, she took Shan Yin with her to check it out, so that they could all feel at ease.
The relative's surname was Zhao, and his name was Zhao Jinbai, also known as Mr. Bai.
Although he is over 70 years old, he refuses to admit his age and is very spirited.
Xi Minxia repeatedly warned, "Ahe, you know Mr. Bai's temper. He hates people with bad intentions and being late. So tomorrow I'll ask Lao Chen to pick you two up, and then we'll go all the way over. Don't delay me!"
Therefore, Pei Yunhe did not dare to delay at all. He packed everything for Shan Yin and then went downstairs with the suitcase and two large bags of things.
Shan Yin asked him, "Why do you need to bring luggage?"
Pei Yunhe explained: "It happens to be the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, so I have to stay for two days."
He was afraid that Shan Yin would not be used to it, so he comforted her, "Mr. Bai is not as scary as your mother said. The family is easy to get along with. Just think of it as a vacation in a different environment."
When they arrived at the house in the suburbs, Shan Yin finally understood what Pei Yunhe meant by taking a vacation in a different environment.
The house is hidden in a small hill near Nanqiao. After getting off the car, you still have to walk along the mountain road for more than ten to twenty minutes.
Because it is far away from the hustle and bustle and pollution, the mountain is still lush and green in June.
A vast expanse of white mist dotted the lush greenery, dyeing the mountains like an ink painting. The crisp chirping of birds could be heard everywhere, and the refreshing chill turned into dewdrops covering the surface of the skin. Every breath made people feel relaxed and happy.
The house is also quite old, and is somewhat similar in style to the Su family's old house in Yunsu. Vigorous vines climb freely on the high walls and stone cliffs in front and behind, and the palm-sized leaves are green like aged jade.
Two lion statues are lying on the left and right sides of the door. There is no plaque with a name on the beam, but there is a sentence written in running script: It should be bright and clear.
Just by looking at these words, you can tell that the owner of the house is a generous and cheerful person. This line of words easily makes this heavy house come alive among the green and lush green.
"This was written by Mr. Bai. He was a man of high character and rarely left the house. He loved to write and draw."
Xi Minxia saw Shan Yin raise his eyes and look at her for a few more seconds, then came over to talk to her.
"Come in, there's more to explore inside. If you like this kind of house, I'll take you back to our old house to live there. We have one like this one too, and we can take a closer look then."
Xi Minxia was right, it was indeed difficult to walk in the old garden-style house.
In order to maintain the old landscaping and greening, even though many modern facilities were added later, some paths and ground are still paved with bluestone bricks and mud gravel.
To appear more formal, Shan Yin wore a pair of high heels today. Although they were of comfortable style and material, he had walked on the mountain road for more than ten minutes, and his front and back feet were sore and swollen.
After passing another moon-shaped gate, there were lush flowers and plants beside the pink walls and white tiles. The winding path led directly to the main hall, but the ground on this side was still covered with stones.
Shan Yin stepped forward, her stilettos sinking into the water. She walked steadily, and others couldn't notice anything, but she was only half a step behind Pei Yunhe, who then turned sideways.
She didn't know what he meant, but she saw him suddenly squat down, grab her with one hand, and gently pick her up sideways.
Shan Yin screamed in fright. Pei Kelang and Xi Minxia were still in front, so how could she have the nerve to ask Pei Yunhe to hold her.
Pei Yunhe, however, didn't take it seriously. He spoke to the two elders in front of her and said, "I will carry my own wife on my own back. If you two have any objections, you can handle it yourselves."
After saying that, he walked forward without stopping, leaving Pei Kelang and Xi Minxia looking at each other and shaking their heads.
As they were about to reach the central hall, they could see from afar that the room was full of people. Shan Yin patted Pei Yunhe and said, "Put me down quickly."
"No."
It rained in the mountains two days ago, and there was still a layer of water in the blue brick hall. It was crystal clear when the sun shone on it. If the water fell to the ground and was stepped on, it would splash Dan Yin's cheongsam.
Pei Yunhe carried Shan Yin all the way to the front of the crowd. Shan Yin's face had never been so red before, and it reminded him of the way she always couldn't help herself.
Pei Yunhe thought it looked great.
But there was someone in front, so he reluctantly let Shan Yin go, and Shan Yin jumped to his back.
She patted the hem of her skirt and fumbled to fix her hair.
Pei Yunhe only thought of that sentence, her face flushed slightly, her hair tilted like a phoenix, she was about to call out softly, but she was afraid that others would see her deep feelings.
"cough."
The old man in the middle of the hall coughed loudly, waking Pei Yunhe and asking Shan Yin to look up.
That old man should be Zhao Jinbai, Mr. Bai.
Just as Xi Minxia described, although his hair was gray, he was in good spirits.
He sat in the middle of the hall, his posture as straight as a pine tree, and even more like the pine and cypress, strong, tough and upright.
A pair of eyes, like an eagle's, were particularly bright, and swept straight towards the seat below. All the young people in the room, whether sitting or standing, lowered their heads and kept silent, not daring to move.
The only person standing behind him was a boy in his early twenties, who looked somewhat similar to him, but his posture and temperament were much more lazy and nonchalant, like a naive young man who was ignorant of the world.
The boy had been staring at Shan Yin since Pei Yunhe picked her up. After Pei Yunhe entered the hall and put Shan Yin down, he continued to look at her secretly. He looked at Shan Yin carefully many times, but did not glance at Pei Yunhe, as if he did not dare to.
After Mr. Bai coughed, the boy seemed to be gloating. Not only did he chuckle, he turned around and pulled a cute little girl next to him to talk quietly.
Shan Yin didn't recognize which young master from aristocratic family this was, but he saw that Bai Gong had already heard them whispering behind him.
Just as Bai Gongzheng was about to explode, he suddenly heard a cough beside him.
Shan Yin glanced over and saw Pei Yunhe standing straight, with his chin slightly raised, staring straight at the young master.
He was not as relaxed as he was at home when he was outside. When he pursed his lips and kept silent, he seemed gentle and elegant, but also had a sense of distance and inaccessibility.
At this moment, he stared straight ahead with his eyes half-closed, which made him look even more serious and indifferent.
Seeing that the young master fell silent instantly, Shan Yin immediately stood up straight and dared not move.
But the little girl next to him tilted her head and smiled softly.
"Oh, what a majestic presence."
Mr. Bai sitting there suddenly snorted. Shan Yin realized that he was talking about Pei Yunhe, and his heart immediately tightened.
Visiting someone else's home and threatening the younger generation in that family does seem a bit overbearing.
Shan Yin was worried that Pei Yunhe would make Bai Gong unhappy, and his thoughts were racing. He was thinking about how to apologize to him, but he heard Bai Gong speak loudly.
"Okay, okay, you're the only one who can control this monkey of mine."
It's not blame?
Shan Yin looked up again and saw that Mr. Bai was laughing out loud with a beaming smile on his face.
He turned around and glared at the young master behind him, then raised his crutch and pointed at Pei Yunhe: "You kid, you still know how to come here? If you don't come, there won't even be anyone at home to play chess with me!"
Pei Yunhe also restrained his expression, raised his eyes, took Shan Yin's hand and walked forward.
"Aren't you busy with work? I came to see you as soon as I got some time off."
Mr. Bai glared at him, but he was not angry. He just looked at Shan Yin and then looked back at Pei Yunhe meaningfully.
"Don't try to fool me, old man. I see it's not just work, is it?"
Pei Yunhe smiled generously, "You have a keen eye."
As he spoke, he patted Shan Yin's back lightly and led Shan Yin to the front, "My wife, Shan Yin."
Then he said to Shan Yin, "This is Mr. Bai, calling for help."
Shan Yin nodded and greeted Bai Gong politely.
She is naturally beautiful and gentle, and is always polite, so the first impression she makes is absolutely impeccable.
At this time, Pei Yunhe also waved to Lao Chen who followed him outside. Lao Chen came up and handed him a long brocade box. Pei Yunhe took it and carried it with both hands to Bai Gong.
"Dan Yin is here to visit you for the first time. This small gift is not enough to show respect."
Shan Yin turned around immediately.
Aren’t the gifts she prepared placed together with those prepared by Xi Minxia?
When did it come in a separate brocade box?
Pei Yunhe didn't have time to look at her, only the smile on his lips was smug and mysterious.
"He's more disciplined than you."
Mr. Bai didn't know the key to this. He glanced at Pei Yunhe, took the brocade box and opened it.
When the scroll was stretched out, it turned out to be a picture of pine trees and cranes.
Pines and cypresses are evergreen and do not wither even in winter.
The crane is noble and becomes stronger as it ages.
The brushstrokes in his paintings are natural and vigorous, overflowing with talent. There is stillness in movement and movement in stillness, and they are lifelike.
Bai Gong's eyes lit up immediately. He admired it for a few seconds and asked Shan Yin with some admiration, "Did you draw this?"
Shan Yin was still stunned. When asked suddenly, she nodded quickly: "I just drew it randomly when I was bored. I'm sorry to make Mr. Bai laugh."
"Good, good, good!" Mr. Bai sighed three times, unable to hide his joy.
He has always loved collecting calligraphy and paintings, and he also paints a few of his own in his spare time.
It's a pity that none of the younger generations in his family are good at painting, nor do they understand the techniques involved. It has been a long time since there was anyone to appreciate the work together, and it has been a long time since they have seen such a good work.
He turned to Pei Yunhe and said, "You are such a lucky guy! You actually got such a good wife!"
"Who says it isn't?"
This gift touched Mr. Bai's heart, and Pei Yunhe was naturally proud of it.
He didn't care whether the words were meant to belittle himself or not, and quickly took Shan Yin to please him.
"Since you are satisfied with this gift, shouldn't you, as the elder, also show some appreciation?"
Coincidentally, Pei Kelang and Xi Minxia, who had fallen behind a lot, were led to the main hall by servants.
Seeing that Pei Yunhe was chatting with Bai Gong, Xi Minxia hurried forward, fearing that she would offend the elder.
"Uncle Bai! We are late, too late!"
After a long round of greetings, Mr. Bai was not the kind of person who liked to be polite. After learning the purpose of the Pei family's visit, he ordered the people around him to get the things needed for the consultation, while raising his eyebrows and looking at Pei Yunhe.
"So that's what you're thinking about?"
Pei Yunhe smiled and said the same thing: "Who said it wasn't?"
Mr. Bai also laughed twice, no longer feeling depressed, but even more cheerful, "You are a man who loves his wife."
As he spoke, the servant brought up a red sandalwood carved armchair.
Mr. Bai asked Shan Yin to sit over and without any reservations, he took Shan Yin's pulse and read his face immediately.
At first, he was very calm and composed. He took the patient's pulse silently and made judgments leisurely.
But after half a minute, Mr. Bai suddenly frowned, which made Shan Yin and the Pei family feel uneasy.
"What's wrong? Uncle Bai, Yinyin is..."
Xi Minxia was worried and anxious, and did not dare to ask loudly, for fear of disturbing Mr. Bai's consultation.
But after another half minute, Mr. Bai suddenly relaxed his brows.
He raised his eyes and glanced at Pei Yunhe, who was obviously very anxious but still had a calm and composed expression.
With a smile on his face, he pushed Shan Yin's arm.
"Young people, learn moderation."
