He actually wanted to refuse, but he glanced at his daughter and found that she was lowering her head and kicking stones out of boredom, which meant she didn't object.
Alas, girls cannot be kept at home when they grow up!
The couple has been worrying about their youngest daughter's marriage for the past two years, but she has never given in. So this is the case.
After knowing the situation, Shen Changshan looked at Pei Yu with more and more critical eyes. Isn't this kid just a little better looking?
After waiting for a while, she found that no one in her family spoke. She looked up and found that her parents were looking at Pei Yu with a very critical look. Well, how should I put it, it was like a father-in-law looking at his son-in-law.
"Dad, Pei Yu is asking you a question?"
"Ah? Oh, Master Pei, you're welcome. Please."
"Uncle and aunt, please."
A few people exchanged polite words at the door before going in. Chen Li had a headache watching this. Why didn’t she realize before that her parents could do this?
Tianqing silently drove the carriage in, and then asked two servants to help carry the gifts over.
In the living room, Shen Changshan was chatting with Pei Yu, but the topic went off track.
"Why did Master Pei come out alone? Isn't he accompanied by his family?"
Pei Yu's eyes flickered slightly, and he hesitated for a moment before saying, "My parents are dead, I have no brothers or sisters, and now I am alone."
After hearing this, Lin Cuicui reached out and twisted Shen Changshan's waist, saying, "Why bring up this when there are so many other things to bring up?"
However, this is also good. After Ali gets married, she will not have parents-in-law, aunts, and uncles to serve her, and she can live a happy and leisurely life.
Shen Changshan was a little satisfied in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face: "So it was me who mentioned Mr. Pei's sad story."
Pei Yu's smile faded a bit, and his eyes looked a little lonely. "It's okay. It's been a long time since it happened. I just feel lonely and alone."
Chen Li felt something was not right the more she listened. Could it be that Pei Yu was resorting to some self-torture tactic?
Is it necessary?
Shen Changshan saw that he was a little lonely, and knew that he had mentioned his sad story, so he quickly changed the subject.
At this time, Tianqing came up with people and gifts.
"This is a small gift from me. I'm sorry to bother you so much, but I hope you won't refuse."
"this……"
Shen Changshan looked at his daughter. These gifts were exquisitely packaged and obviously very expensive. Could he accept them?
Chen Li glared at Pei Yu, not knowing when he learned to be so arrogant.
"Mr. Pei, I'm afraid it's inappropriate to have so many gifts."
"Yes, yes, yes."
Shen Changshan always felt that if he accepted his gift, he would be selling his daughter.
Pei Yu chuckled and shook his head, "These were given to me by others. I don't need them all by myself. Besides, Ah Li saved my life. These things are not worth mentioning."
That "Ali" was so loud that the whole family couldn't pretend not to understand it.
Tianqing lowered his head, his mouth twitching. His master was becoming more and more shameless, and he didn't know who learned it from.
Maybe it's because I've been spending too much time with Dr. Mo in the past two years, and I've learned some of his signature skills.
Mo Qing: A-choo~
Chen Li raised her head and gave Pei Yu a warning look, signaling him to restrain himself.
"Father and mother, if that's the case, then please accept it."
Seeing that she was about to get angry, Pei Yu didn't dare to make her angry anymore, and spoke much more honestly afterwards.
During dinner, Shen Changshan and Shen Qian'an signaled to Pei Yu more than once to let him eat alone, but he pretended to be stupid and didn't understand.
"Aunt~"
Shen Mochi ran over, threw himself in front of Shen Li, and quickly climbed up along her knees.
"Aunt, what are you busy with today? Why didn't you come to see Achi?"
Chen Li pinched his little fleshy hand, "We have guests at home today."
"oh oh."
After the aunt and nephew said a few words, he looked up and called everyone one by one, and then he found that there was a person he didn't know in the dining room.
She looked at Pei Yu with confused eyes, then her eyes suddenly lit up, and she leaned close to Chen Li's ear and whispered, "Aunt, he's so handsome!"
It seemed like she was speaking quietly, but everyone in the room heard it. Xu Taohua took her son from Chen Li's arms and sat him down. "Dinner is ready. Today we have your favorite steamed pork ribs."
"Where is it? Let me see!"
Afterwards, everyone finished their meal quietly and then dispersed. Pei Yu's presence was too strong, but he himself did not have such a high level of ideological awareness. He insisted on standing there while the family was talking, so everyone had to go back to their own yard.
Chen Li walked back to the yard and sat in the study to practice calligraphy and calm her mind. She had only written a few articles when she heard rain outside the window.
The rain was not heavy, and the sound of water rustling on the bamboo leaves was heard. Chen Li pushed open the window and walked back to find a figure at the door.
Opening the door of the study, "Why, Master Pei doesn't want to be a gentleman anymore?"
Pei Yu shook his head. "A-Li, you must have some misunderstanding about me. I have never been a gentleman."
"However, if Ali likes a gentleman, I can pretend to be one."
Chen Li discovered that his face was really getting thicker and thicker.
"What are you doing here so late at night?"
"It's still early and I can't sleep, so I came to play a game with you."
After thinking for two seconds, he stepped aside to make way for her and said, "Come in."
Pei Yu walked in, his eyebrows slightly curved, obviously in a very good mood.
Pei Yu didn't look around after entering. He walked to the window and sat down, then took the pear-shaped Go board and placed it on the table.
"Were you practicing calligraphy just now?"
"Um."
He looked down at his sleeve and found that it was stained with some ink.
