Hearing Pei Yun's voice, Xiao Zhiruo's face suddenly brightened. She looked towards the gate of the courtyard and saw Pei Yun coming in with Leng Qingqiu, followed by Zhang Kui.
Pei Feng got furious when he saw Pei Yun. It was this bastard who made him lose consciousness.
But when he saw Leng Qingqiu, he was stunned. Why is there another beautiful girl?
How many beautiful women are there around Pei Yun? A feeling of jealousy burst out from Pei Feng's heart. Why are these beautiful women all around Pei Yun?
What on earth is so attractive about him?
But this was not the time to think about women. He angrily said, "Pei Yun, we came here with good intentions to help you with the betrothal gift, but you told us to get out. Is this how you treat your grandfather and your third uncle?"
"Grandpa? Third uncle?"
Pei Yun laughed and said, "How could I not know that I have a grandfather and an uncle? I don't want to say it a second time. Take your betrothal gifts and get out. You don't need to worry about the affairs between me and the princess."
Although it was Pei Feng who had a grudge against Pei Yun, Pei Yun didn't believe that Pei Yanshu and Pei Li knew nothing about it. Moreover, before Pei Yi died, he wanted to trace his ancestry, but Pei Yanshu refused to acknowledge his son.
This also gave Pei Yun a bad impression of Mr. Pei.
Pei Yi and Pei Zhong became bandits in order to prevent the Pei family from decline. They robbed goods from passing merchants to subsidize the Pei family. Without these two people, the Pei family would have declined long ago.
It's too late to meddle in my affairs now!
Pei Li said in a deep voice: "Pei Yun, I know you have suffered a lot outside these years, but you are the blood of my Pei family, you cannot deny this. We have done something wrong to you, but as a junior, is this the attitude you should have towards your elders?"
"In this world, I, your grandfather, and Pei Feng are related to you by blood, and we are your closest relatives. We are here to help you with the betrothal gifts out of good intentions. Is that wrong?"
"The princess is a daughter of gold, and she is willing to marry you. It is a great blessing for you. Don't you even want to pay the betrothal gift?"
Pei Yun smiled faintly, "Who said I don't have a betrothal gift? Are these betrothal gifts from your Pei family worthy of the princess?"
Pei Feng sneered, "Pei Yun, Pei Yun, why do you have to pretend to be rich? You were a bandit before. Even if you become a thousand households now, how much salary can you get every month?"
"What kind of betrothal gift can you prepare? Brown rice or wild vegetables?"
"We are helping you prepare the betrothal gifts for your own good, so that you don't have to be so poor. You can't let the princess live with you and eat coarse food."
"You are not losing your face, but the face of my Pei family. My Hedong Pei family is a noble family. We are marrying a princess, but you can't even take out a decent betrothal gift. Do you have the face to do that?"
Pei Feng finally got the chance to ridicule Pei Yun. After saying this, he felt refreshed. He had accepted the reality. Since his father and grandfather wanted Pei Yun to return, then let him return to his roots.
He still had the same idea as before. Now that Pei Yun and the princess were married and he was away for a long time, he would have an opportunity to take advantage of her. Playing with Pei Yun's wife would be more fun than playing with his own wife.
Pei Yun raised his eyebrows and resisted the urge to beat Pei Feng to death. He always felt a little regretful that he didn't kill Pei Feng last time. However, when he heard Xue Qianqian say that Pei Feng was impotent, Pei Yun felt relieved.
For a rich and powerful man, it would be very painful if he could not touch a woman, and he would feel that life has lost all fun.
If Pei Yun knew that it was Pei Feng who asked Yanyu Tower to assassinate him, he would probably thank Pei Feng, otherwise he would not have such a powerful guard like Leng Qingqiu.
Hearing Pei Feng say that his betrothal gift was brown rice and wild vegetables, Pei Yun felt that it was time for the Pei family to face reality, otherwise they would always think that they were a great aristocratic family.
Do you think that if you can trace your roots back to your ancestors, they will be grateful to you?
"My betrothal gifts have been prepared long ago and are placed at the Liu family. Please come to the Liu family to receive the betrothal gifts."
Xiao Zhiruo was stunned. Have you prepared the betrothal gifts?
When did this happen? How come I don’t know? You came back with me yesterday, and after the banquet, didn’t you go back to the village?
Could it be that he secretly brought the betrothal gifts down in the middle of the night to give me a surprise?
Xiao Zhiruo's heart was slightly disturbed. Since she came into contact with Pei Yun, Pei Yun's attitude towards her was neither too enthusiastic nor too cold, which made her feel like she was rushing to get married.
At the banquet yesterday, Pei Yun had given a clear response, but he didn't expect the other party to prepare the betrothal gifts so quickly.
So he left me here yesterday so that I wouldn’t be discovered and wanted to give me a surprise.
There is no woman who doesn't like surprises, no matter whether they are modern or ancient. Xiao Zhiruo imagined a lot of them, and finally she became shy.
The Pei family was also a little surprised. Pei Yun left the betrothal gifts at the Liu family?
Considering that Liu Yiyi has been living in the mountains these days, it means that the Liu family and Pei Yun have a good relationship. Could it be that he wants the Liu family to help prepare the betrothal gifts?
Anyway, they would never believe that Pei Yun could offer any betrothal gift. How could a bandit compare with their noble family?
Pei Feng's face was filled with even more sarcasm. "I want to see what kind of betrothal gift you have prepared for the princess."
He didn't believe that the betrothal gift that the Liu family prepared for Pei Yun could compare to that of the Pei family.
A group of people walked towards the Liu family.
…
Liu Mansion.
Liu Jingzhi was about to go out, but before he left, a servant came to report that the princess, the county magistrate, and the Pei family had arrived. Liu Jingzhi was stunned. Why did so many people come? Was there something important?
He hurried out to greet them, and after paying his respects to the princess and Xue Wen, he was just about to ask if there was anything wrong.
Pei Yun had already said, "Uncle Liu, I'm here to get the betrothal gift for the princess."
Liu Jingzhi: ???
What betrothal gift? When did you leave the betrothal gift in my house? It was for the princess. You have never been to my house.
"Captain Pei, you must have remembered it wrongly. There is no betrothal gift."
Pei Feng burst into laughter. "Pei Yun, Pei Yun, I knew you were just being mysterious. If you can't come up with a betrothal gift, just say so. Why bother bringing us around?"
His tone was full of sarcasm. "Pei Yun, stop pretending. How much wealth can you have as a bandit? If you really can't come up with it, just use what we prepared for you. Don't embarrass yourself everywhere."
Xiao Zhiruo looked at Pei Yun with a question mark on her face. She felt that Pei Yun was not such a frivolous person. If he said there would be a betrothal gift, there must be one. Did Liu Jingzhi forget about it?
But Pei Yun said, "Uncle Liu, you forgot. I put the betrothal gifts in Yiyi's room. I'll go get them out."
After saying that, he ran towards Liu Yiyi's room.
Liu Jingzhi scratched his hair and said, "If I remember correctly, you have never been to my house. When did you give the betrothal gift?"
But when he saw Pei Yun running straight towards Liu Yiyi's room, he looked very familiar with it and was a little confused. He was very sure that Pei Yun had never been to Liu's house, so how could he know his daughter's room.
Could it be that my daughter brought Pei Yun back to live with us when I was not at home?
When did the daughter get involved with Pei Yun?
But Pei Yun entered Liu Yiyi's room and started buying things in the mall. This time he was going to slap the Pei family in the face. They said, "I can't come up with a decent betrothal gift, right? I'm going to scare you to death!"
