"Oh, what if the one I like already has a wife? Is there anyone in this world that I can't get?"
A domineering and arrogant voice came into her ears. Although there was a lot of noise, Song Niannian could still hear it.
As if it was destined, Pei Qinyu looked up and saw an inn with the wooden windows open, revealing two beautiful faces.
The woman with a sweet smile and arrogant eyes covered her face with a blue fan, and her eyes fell gently and quietly on Song Niannian and Pei Qinyu.
"Lower your head." Song Niannian instinctively raised her hand and immediately covered Pei Qinyu's face.
"Nian Niang?"
Pei Qinyu frowned in confusion.
Song Niannian could feel the gazes from upstairs, following her like a shadow, as if attracted by her actions, and the gazes were fixed on her and Pei Qinyu for a longer time.
"Tsk, a country girl, only she would treat a country scholar as a treasure. Miss, look at her stingy look, does she really think her husband is a hot commodity? Do you think he is the best in the world? Don't you know that there are 3,000 men in this world, and the best ones are all in the capital?"
"Hmph." A cold laugh ended the conversation, and the opened wooden window slammed shut.
.
Song Niannian stood on the street, looking at Pei Qinyu.
Song Niannian covered his eyes, revealing the lower half of his face. His thin lips were red, and he could be seen as a very handsome man.
The cloth robe looks a little plain on Pei Qinyu, but it looks even better, and he has the elegant demeanor of a bamboo-like gentleman... If you like noble and elegant gentlemen, it is hard not to like Pei Qinyu.
Pei Qinyu is still the male protagonist of this world!
"Niang Nian, are you okay?" Pei Qinyu held Song Niannian's hand.
He looked at her, his eyes like deep pools, his long eyelashes searching into hers.
It's been a long time since I competed with others for a man~
In this battle, the men's defense battle has completely started. Looking closely at Pei Qinyu, one can't help but feel his blood boiling.
"Okay, there was a bug that almost flew into your eye, husband, are you feeling uncomfortable?"
…
The invisible plot pushes Pei Qinyu and Song Niannian forward.
After many twists and turns, Pei Qinyu finally settled down with Song Niannian in the courtyard where he had lived in the capital in the original plot.
And holding Pei Yan's hand, he followed Pei Qinyu into here.
Song Niannian looked at every brick and tile here.
She seemed to hear the silent mockery of the abuse system.
It was clear that the system had been completely destroyed by her, but the remaining power could still make Song Niannian feel very uncomfortable.
"Host, give birth to more children! Only if you have more children, even if Pei Qinyu really doesn't want you anymore, we can still get more points after completing the task. You can even remarry with his children." The childbearing system comforted clumsily.
As a system, the fertility system cannot see into Song Niannian's thoughts.
What it felt was Song Niannian's negative emotions.
Song Niannian smiled gently, innocent and pretty.
As a tasker who has experienced several abusive worlds and is not afraid of pain.
Is it possible that her negative fluctuations weren't caused by a bad mood, but rather that she hadn't experienced this kind of devastation in a long time, and she couldn't help but wrestle with the abusive plot again?!
.
In the plot, Pei Qinyu and Princess Duanning first met before the Spring Examination.
At that time, the candidates who came to Beijing from the countryside to take the imperial examinations lived in the capital, where every inch of land was worth a lot of money, and their lives were very difficult. As a last resort, he set up a letter stall in the capital, reading letters and copying documents for others to supplement his life.
Duan Ning has lived a life of luxury since childhood, and she loves to dress up as a man and have fun in the capital.
Half of the capital knew that Princess Duanning liked to wear red clothes, liked plain men, and liked to ride horses in the downtown area.
She is the youngest princess of the current emperor, and her mother is a noble concubine who is deeply loved by the emperor.
Even if she caused a disaster, Princess Duan Ning could always escape unscathed with the protection of the imperial concubine and her family.
That day, Duan Ning was riding his horse in the busy streets east of the city when he accidentally knocked down a woman who was holding a baby wrapped in swaddling clothes in her arms. The baby fell to the ground and the fierce horse raised its front hooves high and stomped heavily on the frightened baby.
If the horse's hoof hits it, the baby in the cradle will surely die.
In an emergency, Pei Qinyu tried to grab the baby with her body, but was stepped heavily on the back by the horse.
The Spring Examination was approaching, and Pei Qinyu had to lie in bed for ten days before she was barely able to take part in it.
Duan Ning rode away on her horse at that time. Later, in the Golden Throne Hall, she hid behind a screen and secretly watched the second-class Jinshi who had passed the palace examination personally go to the Golden Throne Hall to receive the title.
Pei Qinyu was among them.
Because of his injury, his face was slightly pale and he looked like a sick person.
The emperor liked strong and agile people, so he chose someone else as the top scholar, and Pei Qinyu only got the second place.
Duan Ning felt guilty towards Pei Qinyu. After the palace examination, she said a lot of good things about Pei Qinyu to the emperor, explained the whole story, and asked the emperor to repay her kindness by giving Pei Qinyu a good position.
The successful candidates in the special examination that year were assigned to the Hanlin Academy as envoys, but Pei Qinyu, the runner-up, stood out and was admitted to the Ministry of Rites, one of the six ministries, and became a fifth-rank deacon of the Ministry.
…
.
In order to survive, Pei Qinyu, as expected, chose to set up a stall in the east of the city and work as a clerk.
Song Niannian took Pei Yan with her, hoping to find a job in the capital.
So she found a job selling sesame cakes and set up a small stall while Pei Qinyu was writing documents.
A small stove with a blazing fire inside. All you need to do is spread a layer of oil, pepper and salt on the dough that has been fermented in advance, and put it into the fire to bake it gently.
In less than three minutes, the crispy outside and fragrant inside sesame cake was ready. It was steaming hot and the fragrance spread from ten miles away, and it smelled very tempting.
Because of her reputation as a "master chef", Song Niannian's pancake stall had only been open for two days when peddlers and hawkers from all around lined up to buy her pancakes, and some even made reservations with her in advance, numbering as many as twenty or thirty people.
The east of the city is a mixed place, with a sesame seed bun costing two cents each, which is exactly what those who do manual labor like the most.
Even if Song Niannian's sesame cakes were used as dry food and dried in the air, they would not be difficult to chew. On the contrary, the sesame-covered parts were crispy and fragrant, and the crunch was so strong that people couldn't stop eating them after taking a bite.
After Song Niannian sold sesame cakes for two days, the neighbors gave her a nickname, "Seed Cake Xishi."
Song Niannian couldn't take Pei Yan with her, so Pei Yan could only follow Pei Qinyu.
Within a few days, Song Niannian was making a fortune, and the few copper coins that Pei Qinyu earned from writing documents in the cold wind were not even a fraction of Song Niannian's.
Song Niannian discussed with Pei Qinyu, "My husband, they say that all things are inferior except for studying. Now you are also a scholar, with some status. If people knew that you were writing documents on the street to make money, I am afraid that you would be criticized after the Spring Examination."
"How about you stay home and study hard, and I'll go out and sell sesame cakes every day to support you? It's like husband and wife following each other's lead, and finding a way for us to make a living?"
Pei Qinyu was unwilling.
Song Niannian and he have suffered a lot. Now the money they have is enough to support their lives, but it is inevitable that they will run out of money.
As a husband, he would never let Song Niannian show up in public and sell sesame cakes to support him!
Song Niannian couldn't persuade Pei Qinyu.
