After this incident, when they returned to the Shen family, it was almost curfew. After asking the doorman, they found out that everyone else had already returned, and they were the only two who came back last.
Pei Yu originally wanted to go back, but was stopped by Chen Li. "Ayu, why are you going back at this time? Stay here and celebrate the New Year with us."
"good."
His house is deserted. Is he going back at this time to handle official business during the New Year?
As for investigating the assassination tonight, don’t we have so many subordinates?
If so many people can't figure out the problem, there's no point in keeping them around.
I smelled myself and there was a hint of blood, but if I changed my clothes now, it would be too conspicuous.
He returned to his own yard, took out two sachets, and hung one on each of them. This was the yard where Shen Changshan and the others were.
As soon as I walked into the yard, I heard the sound of people playing mahjong and Mo Qing's occasional chattering.
"Mom and Dad, we're back."
"I'm back. Come in and sit down. It's windy outside."
When she opened the door and walked in, a wave of heat hit her in the face. Shen Mochi was also there, wanting to pounce on her, but Shen Li was pushing his little head against her.
"Ah Chi, dear, I just came back from outside and I'm dirty. I'll hold you tomorrow, okay? Here, this is a toy I brought for you."
"good."
Shen Mochi took the wooden toy from her hand and started playing with it.
Mo Qing and Shen Yuanzhou raised their heads and took a look, frowning slightly, but seeing that the two were fine, they didn't say anything.
One of them is a doctor, and the other has been in the underworld for a while and is particularly sensitive to the smell of blood.
They brought sachets with them, and since there were so many people in the room, no one else noticed the smell on them.
Shen Mochi felt sleepy after playing for a while. Just when he was about to fall asleep, the adults in the room took out the red envelopes they had prepared and stuffed them in front of him.
Shen Mochi blinked his big eyes and first looked up at Xu Taohua, "Mom..."
Xu Taohua was also stunned for a moment, but soon figured out the key.
"Achi, remember to say thank you!"
Soon the room was filled with the sound of a child's tender voice, and the last sentence, "Thank you, my handsome uncle," shocked everyone.
"cough!"
Pei Yu coughed lightly, breaking the awkwardness in the room, and Xu Taohua hurriedly carried the person to sleep.
This poor kid, I've told him many times not to call me that, but he just won't listen.
Chen Li was also at a loss whether to laugh or cry. Obviously, she knew that her parents and sister-in-law had already told her eldest nephew, but the boy was stubborn and refused to change his words. She did not force him, so the title of "handsome uncle-in-law" fell on Pei Yu.
Mo Qing saw Pei Yu's uncontrollable smile, shook his head, and said to Lin Cuicui across from him, "Auntie, let's continue fighting and ignore them."
"OK."
Lin Cuicui had good luck at cards tonight and won a lot of money, so she had a smile on her face the whole time.
Pei Yu sat next to Shen Li. The things they had just bought were already on the table. Some of them were still edible, but some were cold and could not be eaten. Whoever wanted to eat them could go and get them.
It was not until midnight that everyone dispersed. Pei Yu returned to the next room, but instead of going back to his room to sleep, he sat in the study.
"Have you found out? Who sent it?"
Tian Qing knelt on one knee and said, "Master, I have found out that it was the assassins of the Lin family. Because of your actions in Jiangnan during this period, many of the Lin family's secret businesses have been destroyed. They were so angry that they sent people to assassinate you."
"Lin family."
Pei Yu drummed his fingers on the table. The Lin family was considered a new noble family, but there was no capable person in the family and it was on the verge of collapse. He didn't expect that they had done so many illegal things in secret.
"In that case, let's find something for them to do to keep them busy. Besides, Mr. Lin is old now, and it's time for him to enjoy his retirement."
While Pei Yu was speaking, he picked up his pen and wrote a letter, "Send it back to the capital without delay."
"yes."
If I send it now, it won’t be as good as the New Year’s gift, but the New Year isn’t over yet, is it?
I hope Mr. Lin likes this gift.
Pei Yu dealt with official business for a while before going to wash up and rest.
Chen Li returned to the room, but did not go to bed immediately. Instead, she followed her previous habit and practiced her internal strength and supernatural powers first, and only went to bed when the time was almost up.
I woke up early the next morning and went to the dining room, but what I saw was not a prepared breakfast, but kneaded noodles and meat filling.
"Ali, you're awake. Let's make dumplings for ourselves this morning."
"OK."
The family members were rolling out dough and making dumplings. Not long after, Pei Yu and Mo Qing also arrived.
Mo Qing squeezed next to Lin Cuicui and said, "Auntie, I want to make dumplings too. Can you teach me?"
"good."
After washing his hands, Pei Yu walked to Chen Li. Making dumplings was a distant memory for him. He still remembered that his mother taught him how to make dumplings before she passed away, but it had been so long that he could no longer remember it.
Holding a piece of dumpling wrapper, "Ali, how do you make this?"
Chen Li took a piece of dumpling wrapper and demonstrated it to him in slow motion. Then she watched him clumsily make the dumplings with a slight smile on her lips. It was rare to see him do something with so much effort.
Pei Yu’s first dumpling is ready. All I can say is that the filling doesn’t come out, but it’s not very pretty.
Next, Pei Yu made more than ten dumplings seriously and persistently. In the end, the dumplings he made were no different from the ones they made.
But Mo Qing is not like that. He is very skillful, but that is only in the field of medicine. He has absolutely no talent in cooking.
