"Miss, no one with other surnames is allowed to enter the Pei family's library." Even the person who sweeps the room is surnamed Pei.
"Ah? Then I'll wait for him here?"
Yanshan bowed and said, "You are my fiancée, so you are not considered an outsider. You can do it."
In fact, what he was thinking was that maybe in the future she might not necessarily become the grandmother, but might even become the wife.
"If you say so, I won't go in." She glanced at the corridor next to her and walked over. "I'll just sit here and wait for him."
"Send someone who can go in and inform them." After saying that, she actually sat down in the corridor, supporting her head with her hands, as if looking at the scenery.
The weather now is neither spring nor summer. Yanshan saw that Tu Qingyu was not wearing thick clothes. The Pei family knew what their master was thinking, so they didn't dare to let anyone blow the wind here.
Someone was quickly sent in to pass the message.
After a while, Pei Jian came out.
He was still wearing the familiar black robe, and when he walked over, he brought with him a terrifying sense of oppression.
Tu Qingyu stood up and called out to him with a smile, "Uncle Pei."
The oppressive feeling was instantly half gone.
"It's getting late. If you don't go back soon, your parents will be worried." As soon as he stood still, he started to say farewell.
Tu Qingyu curled his lips, "No, my parents won't worry if I'm with you."
Pei Jian sighed, "Let's go back early. Sanwuzhai has just started doing business at this hour. Didn't you say the other day that you liked their roasted meat?"
"You are chasing me away." Tu Qingyu quickly came to a conclusion.
Pei Jian was silent.
Her eyes reddened, "You're really trying to drive me away, Pei Jian, why are you like this?"
The servants around lowered their heads, and some wished they were not there.
After so many years, this is the first person who dares to call an adult by his name.
Pei Jian was also surprised. She used to feel a little strange when she first heard him call her Uncle Pei, but after getting used to it, it didn't matter to her.
Now, she called him by his name, and he felt even weirder than when he first heard Uncle Pei.
"You..." He moved his lips and finally spoke, "Someone, send Miss Tu back."
"Hmph!" She snorted heavily, "Since you don't want me to come, then I won't come again."
After saying that, she lifted her skirt, turned around and left, and soon she was out of everyone's sight.
Yanshan looked at his master and couldn't help but ask, "Master, do you want to chase him?"
Pei Jian: "Send someone to watch her go through the Tu family's gate and come back."
I understand. This means that we must ensure Miss Tu’s safety.
For a long time afterwards, the two had no contact.
He didn't take the initiative to look for her, and Tu Qingyu also took the initiative to avoid her, as if he was sulking.
Until Tu's mother found Tu Qingyu and said, "Son, there will be a flower viewing banquet in the Moon Palace in a couple of days. Come with me."
"Why is there another banquet in the palace?" She didn't look very happy.
I was already planning how to make use of this banquet.
"This flower viewing banquet is the Empress Dowager's way of choosing a husband for the late Emperor's Princess De'an. Young men and young ladies from various families will be there, and it will be the occasion for the ladies of each family to select suitable candidates for their children of marriageable age."
"I'm already engaged, so I won't go."
"Mom sees that you haven't left the house these days. You must be bored. Why don't you go out and play?"
"I don't want to go." Her face clearly showed that she was unhappy.
"Son, what's wrong with you?" Tu's mother was very worried. "If you are unhappy, tell me. As long as your parents can do it, they will definitely satisfy you."
"Really?" Her eyes lit up, and she looked at Mother Tu and said seriously, "Then I don't want to marry Pei Kangsheng."
Mother Tu was shocked, "You don't like him?"
"I never liked it, it's just you who think I like it." She didn't have the shyness of a girl in the boudoir at all, and she didn't shy away from talking about her lifelong event.
Tu's mother didn't think anything was wrong, so she continued, "So what did you do before..."
"Before, I thought that no matter who I married, I would be destined to spend my whole life struggling in the backyard.
But now that I've met Pei Kangsheng several times, I've discovered that I really don't like him.
He's a conceited man who loves to go to brothels. When we got engaged, we agreed not to marry anyone else, but when I went to Pei's house that day, I clearly saw him being intimate with the maidservant next to him."
In fact, she didn’t see it, but it doesn’t matter. Dabao saw it, and as long as his parents believe it, that’s fine.
"What?" Tu's mother exploded. "We haven't even gotten married yet, and he dares to act like this?"
They had also heard about the brothel incident, but Pei Jian was punished later, and since he didn't really sleep with the girls in the brothel, they didn't pursue the matter.
Now he doesn't even let the girls around him go?
"Mother..." Tu Qingyu pulled her, "Don't be anxious, just listen to me."
"Okay, go ahead."
"Besides, he doesn't like me. Every time we meet, he lectures me, saying I'm not good in this way or that way.
I was thinking, if I marry him, then neither of us will submit to the other, wouldn't we just become a couple of resentful lovers?"
"There's actually such a thing?" Tu's mother was furious. "It's outrageous, outrageous!"
She stood up and walked around the room.
After a moment, she clapped her hands and said, "No, I have to talk to your father about this."
How could her baby suffer such an injustice? Thinking about her daughter being unhappy after marriage in the future, her heart ached.
That night, Mrs. Tu took Mr. Tu aside and gave him a good scolding.
