Chen Li looked at him. He looked very calm, but there was still some nervousness in his eyes and his ears were already red. It was obvious that he was not as calm as he appeared.
Chen Li also straightened her expression, "Pei Yu, I told you last time that I can't tolerate any grain of sand in my eyes. You know what I want from my future husband."
Pei Yu nodded, fearing that Chen Li would eliminate him in the next second.
"I know. I'm not a sentimental person. It's good for two people."
Shen Li chuckled, "Don't be anxious, just listen to me first."
Pei Yu picked up the teacup and took a sip to ease the embarrassment on his face.
"It's not that I don't have feelings for you, but they're not enough for us to go to the end, so..."
Pei Yu's heart was in a state of great anxiety, and his heartbeat quickened as it rose and fell.
"Let's give it a try first. If it's a good match, we can get married. If it's not, we can just break up."
Since she had decided to make it clear, Chen Li did not hide her thoughts and said it directly.
But why did Pei Yu look a little dazed?
Pei Yu listened to this sentence completely at this time, but he felt that the most important thing was the sentence "talking about marriage", so the others were not important to him.
After a while, he put on a silly smile and said firmly, "We must be the most suitable!"
Chen Li nodded. Who knows?
"Pei Yu, I don't care how many people you've had in the past, but from now on, there can only be me. If I find out you're cheating on me, haha..."
His eyes glanced at his lower three positions for an unknown reason, and the meaning was very clear.
Pei Yu subconsciously squeezed his legs together, "Ali, you can't misunderstand me. I'm different from others. I don't have any concubines at home. I'm still innocent."
The voice became quieter and quieter, but Chen Li had good hearing and heard it accurately.
The corners of his mouth curled slightly as he praised, "Yes, innocence is a man's best dowry."
Pei Yu: “…”
I always feel that there is something wrong with this sentence, but Ali seems very happy. Forget it, as long as she is happy.
"Knock~"
Shen Li stood up and said, "Wait here for me, I'll go out and take a look."
"good."
Pei Yu was already thinking in his mind whether he should pay a formal visit tomorrow and what gift to bring. This was his first visit as the future son-in-law, and he had to leave a good impression.
"Miss, Madam said you would eat in the courtyard. I will bring it to you."
"Well, give it to me."
"yes."
The food was brought into the reception room at the side. At this time, Tianqing also came over with a mutton pot.
Well, it’s hard for him to climb over the eaves and walls.
Pei Yu walked out of the study and the two sat down to eat. Pei Yu was in a very good mood the whole time, and even the tiredness on his face seemed much less. This was probably because people are in high spirits when they are happy.
The mutton hotpot is an authentic northern recipe. Chili peppers are added to it, so it doesn’t have the fishy smell of mutton. The bones are stewed until they are soft and easy to remove from the bones. I ate it last time and found it quite delicious.
Pei Yu picked vegetables for Chen Li while eating, taking very good care of her.
"Are you going back to Beijing for the New Year this year?"
"I won't go back. I'll be alone if I go back. It's too lonely."
Having said that, he looked at Chen Li expectantly, “Ali, can I celebrate the New Year with you this year?”
Seeing that she remained silent for a long time, Pei Yu concealed the disappointment in his eyes and said, "Okay, then I'll live alone, okay?"
He seemed like a big wolfdog abandoned by his owner, feeling very aggrieved.
The show is over!
But he said last time that his parents are no longer around, and I've never heard him mention having any brothers or sisters. It would be a bit lonely to spend the New Year alone.
"I didn't say no."
Pei Yu immediately climbed up the ladder and said, "Then I will prepare the gift tomorrow."
Just as he was about to babble about what gift he was going to prepare, Chen Li hurriedly interrupted his spell.
"Eat first, and go back and figure it out."
"good."
After dinner, Chen Li ordered everyone to leave, "Pei Yu, you should go back and rest."
Pei Yu moved the stool next to her and said, "That's fine, but you have to change your name."
Others call me Ajing Ajing, but I call myself by my full name.
Wow, he suddenly turned from a cool and aloof male god into a clingy big dog.
"What do you think is a suitable name?"
"You can call me A Yu or Zi An."
What is a face? Pei Yu said that it can be discarded temporarily.
"Okay, I get it. I'll think about it. You should go back and get some rest. Look at the dark circles under your eyes. Staying up late will make you look older. I like your face the most."
Pei Yu instantly felt a sense of crisis, "I'm going to rest now."
After he washed up and lay down on the bed, he felt very fortunate that he had a good-looking face that most people could not compare to.
It didn't take long before I fell asleep and didn't wake up until the evening.
Here, after sending Pei Yu away, Chen Li took a carriage to relax for half a day. Today was the Little New Year, and the business in the store was very good. Many people took away the food, and the employees were very motivated.
The half-day leisure business was so hot that it naturally attracted a lot of jealous eyes. However, Chen Li specifically instructed Bai Yao and Yang Gui to be careful, especially the people who made the cakes, and not to leak the recipe.
In addition, the half-day off benefits are good, which are not available in other places. Employees also have time to rest, so they are full of motivation.
In the evening, Chen Li returned with two boxes of pastries. She had one of them delivered to her room, and then she walked towards her parents' yard carrying the lunch box.
"Ali is back."
"Well, I brought back some snacks from the store."
He placed the snacks on the table beside him, then lowered his head and said to Shen Mochi who was hugging his legs, "We're about to eat, so we can't have snacks now."
"Yeah, I know, auntie, hug me~"
She picked him up and sat him on a chair beside her. "By the way, Mom and Dad, Pei Yu might celebrate the New Year with us this year."
The three people in the room were stunned by her words.
Master Pei is coming home to celebrate the New Year?
Master Pei is here again?
Shen Changshan still had another thought in his mind, is this his future son-in-law coming to visit?
"Ali, why did Master Pei come to our house to celebrate the New Year?"
He was very curious and didn't want to wonder why, so he decided to ask directly.
Lin Cuicui and Xu Taohua stared at Chen Li with burning eyes. Is it what they thought?
Chen Li raised her head with a smile in her eyes, "Dad, Mom, Sister-in-law, it's just as you think. I decided to try it with Pei Yu first."
"Try?"
"Well, let's see if our personalities are compatible first. As for whether we can even get to the stage of discussing marriage, we'll have to wait and see."
Three people:?
Isn’t this a bit of a disadvantage?
Chen Li chuckled, "Do you think I'm the type to suffer a loss?"
The three of them shook their heads in unison, that’s really not the case!
"That's fine, besides, with Pei Yu's looks and family background, he won't suffer any loss."
The three of them didn't quite agree with this, but given her personality, they felt relieved knowing that she wouldn't suffer any loss.
