Shen Mochi looked at Shen Jingyuan. He actually wanted to sleep with his parents, but since his grandmother said so, he might as well accompany her tonight.
"Mom and Dad, I'll be with you tomorrow night."
As he said that, he walked to Lin Cuicui with his short legs, took her hand and walked with her.
Shen Jingyuan looked at Shen Li and Pei Yu, “Prince, A Li, it’s so late, let’s talk about it tomorrow.”
"Your Highness, it's getting dark. I'll take you back to rest first."
Pei Yu: It is dark, yes, but he is not blind yet, so there is no need for him to send me off.
"No, I know the way. I can go back by myself."
Chen Li looked at her elder brother who was staring at her and Pei Yu hungrily, and couldn't help but smile.
Pei Yu saw it, was he on guard against him?
"Okay, since you and your sister still have something to say, I'll go back first."
After he walked away, Shen Jingyuan said: "Ali, you haven't gotten married yet, this..."
"Okay, big brother, I know, you can rest assured."
Chen Li quickly interrupted him. She didn't want to hear those words from her eldest brother.
Looking at Shen Li who was running away quickly, Shen Jingyuan shook his head and helped his drunk wife back.
As soon as Chen Li returned to her room, Pei Yu came in.
"Aren't you going back to rest?"
Pei Yu sat down next to her, looked at the chessboard on the table and said, "If I go to bed, who will play chess with you?"
"I can also practice calligraphy."
Pei Yu continued, "I can grind ink for you."
Chen Li raised her hand, "No, my ink is very cheap, not worthy of the prince."
"Who said that? Whatever my princess uses, no matter how cheap it is, is worthy of this king."
Chen Li chuckled, remembering what he said when his mother asked him to stay a few more days that night.
"What are you going to prepare?
Pei Yu raised his eyebrows and said, "Keep it secret. Ah Li will know in a few days."
"Forget it, let's play chess."
Chen Li wrinkled her nose, having already guessed what he was going to prepare, but was it necessary to be so mysterious?
Seeing that he is quite excited, I won’t expose him and let him be happy for a while.
A smile appeared on Pei Yu's lips. Ali was wrong this time. He had prepared the betrothal gifts, but the gifts required a pair of live geese.
Geese come and go at their appointed times, but they never break their promises. If they lose their mate, they will never pair up again. A pair of geese in a betrothal gift symbolizes the love and fidelity between husband and wife.
Pei Yu would of course have to prepare such an important thing himself. It's not that his people couldn't prepare it, but it would be best if he could capture it himself.
His men have already found out where the wild geese are and will set out to catch them tomorrow.
Pei Yu grabbed her as she was about to stand up and pulled her into his arms. "A-Li, they say a day without seeing you feels like three autumns. Count how many three autumns it has been since we last saw each other."
"Who taught you to calculate like this?"
Pei Yu leaned close to her red lips and asked, "Who said we can't do this?"
There was a hint of alcohol in his breath. Shen Litou leaned back slightly, too lazy to argue with him. This guy was just playing tricks here because he was drunk.
When she leaned back, Pei Yu stretched out his big hand to hold her head steady, and lowered his head towards her rosy lips. He had wanted to do this just now.
Chen Li hugged his waist and put her hand in, trying to get some benefits for herself, since he wouldn't do anything reckless anyway.
Pei Yu noticed her movements, his tall body shook, and then his attack became more fierce.
After a while, the two of them sat by the window playing chess. After all the excitement just now, the remaining drunkenness soon disappeared completely.
Half an hour later, the chess game between the two was decided. Pei Yu didn't want to go back yet, but before he could say anything, he heard noises outside.
Listening carefully, she found that several servants were coming into her yard, holding several lanterns in their hands, and one of them was holding a plate of snacks.
"Miss, the eldest master asked us to bring you some food."
Chen Li tried to suppress her laughter, and Pei Yu's face darkened. Even if these servants didn't tell him who had sent them, he could guess.
In fact, Shen Jingyuan had instructed the servant not to mention his name, but the servant thought that if he did so, the young lady would not know how good the young master was to her, so he completely forgot Shen Jingyuan's instructions.
Chen Li collected the chess pieces on the chessboard one by one. Seeing Pei Yu didn't say anything, she raised her voice and said, "I'm going to sleep. I'm not hungry. You guys can have some snacks."
"yes."
Pei Yu continued to have a gloomy face. He had been on guard against him just now, and knowing that he couldn't stop him, he simply used this trick.
Sure, I set myself up here.
Except when fighting, he usually looks honest and simple, as if he has no sharp claws. I didn't expect that he is actually a sesame-filled one.
"Alright, go back and rest. You've come such a long way, and you've only had an hour to rest. That's not enough."
Even if her elder brother didn't ask anyone to remind her, she was planning to chase him away. However, she didn't expect that her elder brother would do this, which saved her from being the bad guy.
"Well, I'll leave early tomorrow morning and come back in three days at the latest. Ah Li, wait for me."
"Okay, I'll wait for you to come back."
Pei Yu helped her collect the chess pieces, then stood up and went back reluctantly.
Chen Li planned the time. He would probably come to propose marriage when he came back. In two days, he could dig up the potatoes and corn on the mountain and in the backyard.
The quality of this batch was not as good as the ones she handed over to Pei Yu personally. She made a few plans in her mind so that she could fool people when the time came.
Actually, I don’t really want to lie to anyone, but it seems a bit unreasonable if I don’t give an explanation.
The next morning, after breakfast, Pei Yu rode away on horseback.
Lin Cuicui sighed, "A-Li, Zi'an is so busy. If you two get married in the future, you are not allowed to quarrel over this."
Chen Li stepped forward and took his arm, "Mom, why are you on his side?"
Lin Cuicui followed her inside and said, "If you were on your side, you would see that your father and I are very busy all day long. Zi'an is in a high position, so he must be even busier."
"You can keep an eye on it, but you can't argue with him just because he's busy, okay?"
Chen Li leaned on her shoulder, "I know, mother. Besides, although A Yu is in the highest position, he has a lot of people under him. If he has to do everything himself, why should he support so many people? Don't you think so, big brother?"
Shen Jingyuan, who was talking to Xu Taohua when he was suddenly called by his own sister, heard what Ali said even though he was talking to his wife.
He didn't say anything about his younger sister's unkind behavior. Ali just didn't know how to explain it to her mother.
"Mother, the prince has many capable people under his command. After the wedding, he will arrange his time properly. Don't worry."
"That's good."
Lin Cuicui agreed verbally, but she was still worried in her heart. How could she not be worried? She only had one daughter, so it would be a lie to say that she was not worried.
