Chapter 409: Delivered to the door, each person has a home
Ji Qingwu immediately understood what she meant.
Qi Peiyao gently stroked her belly again and again.
"Just like the village woman who was trembling with fear today, if something happens to her child one day, she will definitely take my child as revenge."
Ji Qingwu said: "Madam, you have considered everything carefully."
This is indeed an unstable factor, as human hearts are the most vulnerable to tests.
Even if she were in other people's shoes, she wouldn't feel at ease either.
Ji Qingwu thought for a moment and asked doubtfully, "But I was also abducted here."
Why wasn't Qi Peiyao worried that she would do something bad?
Qi Peiyao propped up her head on the couch and used her hand to stir the ears of wheat that were placed on the wooden table beside the couch.
"Yes, you were also abducted. Who isn't?"
Qi Peiyao was also captured and taken into the village...
Hearing this, Ji Qingwu's eyes moved slightly, without any shock or contempt.
The clear eyes just shook for a moment, with a hint of surprise.
Qi Peiyao was not willing to marry these three men. It would be more beneficial to her if she was not in the same mind as these three bandits.
Ji Qingwu looked back at her frankly.
Qi Peiyao said happily, "I really didn't make a mistake about him."
She held the rattle in her hand, making a thudding sound, which seemed to echo her joyful mood.
The woman in front of me was the first one who could remain so calm after being captured and taken into the village.
Moreover, he showed no pity or lament for her experience, and did not stand from the perspective of a judge. Instead, he still looked at her calmly.
Ji Qingwu said: "It seems that Madam has something else to tell me."
When Qi Peiyao heard her words, she laughed.
Unlike her previous pretending to be charming, two sweet dimples appeared on her lips.
Ji Qingwu felt that this was her nature.
The Hu brothers were right, Qi Peiyao was a bit childish.
Qi Peiyao sat up swiftly, not at all like a pregnant woman who was about to give birth. Ji Qingwu felt his heart tighten when he saw her sitting cross-legged.
Qi Peiyao said, "Finally I found someone to chat with. Sit down and talk."
Ji Qingwu's heels were indeed sore after standing for so long, so she didn't hesitate to sit down on the chair next to the wooden table.
Before she could ask, Qi Peiyao's words seemed to be unstoppable and kept coming out, which showed that she had a lot to say.
"In fact, I was originally a daughter of an official family. I was going to marry in Lin'an. My husband's family is a high-ranking official in Lin'an."
No wonder Qi Peiyao yearns for everything in Lin'an, it's because of this.
"But when she passed by this place, she was abducted to this mountain and became the wife of the leader of the bandit group."
Qi Peiyao said this with a relaxed expression, without any heavy or sad emotions.
Ji Qingwu praised sincerely: "You are amazing."
From being forced to be the wife of a bandit leader, to now being under the control of the three leaders.
I guess only she knows the sadness involved.
Qi Peiyao said: "Thank you for not looking at me with sympathy or contempt."
She tilted her head and said, "My life now is much better than those noble ladies who are confined in deep mansions with no view to the sky."
Ji Qingwu nodded in agreement: "The heads of the family love you very much. If you were in Lin'an, your husband might even take a concubine or even have a mistress."
Qi Peiyao said: "Who told you that I was going to marry him to be his wife? I was originally going to marry him to be his concubine."
Ji Qingwu raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise: "You are traveling thousands of miles to become a concubine. Do your parents agree?"
The dimples on Qi Peiyao's lips disappeared, her tone became disappointment, and her eyes were half closed.
"You don't know, in our county, being able to be a concubine in a wealthy family in the imperial city is something that my parents can benefit from. My family has a younger brother who is going to get married, so I can only be exchanged for a high-ranking official in Lin'an to be a concubine."
Ji Qingwu understood again and said, "So, you were taken to Black Wind Village voluntarily."
Qi Peiyao immediately clapped his hands and exclaimed: "You understand me too well. I was the one who offered it to you!"
"On that day, Hu Feng and his gang robbed a wealthy businessman's carriage on the roadside, but they didn't plan to rob me because they looked down on poor people like us."
"But I watched these men from a distance..."
Qi Peiyao recalled the scene at that time.
"I first took a fancy to Hu Chen who came to rob the car. He was clean-looking and well-dressed. He didn't look like a bandit at all. He looked a bit like a scholar."
Ji Qingwu thought about it and thought that the third in command Hu Chen, who was waving a feather fan, looked more like a white-haired fox than a scholar.
Qi Peiyao said: "Later, when Hu Lie came closer with the sledgehammer, I saw his strong thighs and arms that were wider than the door frame, and I thought this man was not bad and was good at doing housework."
Ji Qingwu had seen the second in command, Hu Lie, carrying a jar of wine with one hand. With that hand, he could do no housework at all, and it would be good enough if he didn't tear down the house.
Seeing Ji Qingwu's expression, Qi Peiyao said, "He's pretty good at kneading dough and making steamed buns."
"Speaking of which, I'm a little hungry again."
Qi Peiyao said: "Hu Si!"
After a long time, the little bandit came running in from outside the house: "Madam, what do you want?"
"Go ask your second in command to make me some scallion oil noodles. I want to try this."
The little bandit said, "Okay! I'll go find the second in command right away."
After the people left, Qi Peiyao asked, "Where were we just talking about?"
Ji Qingwu said: "It's time to talk about the big boss."
"I didn't fancy him at the time. I thought that choosing either of these two men as my husband would be better than marrying the old man in Lin'an as a concubine."
Qi Peiyao's eyes sparkled. "Besides, if my family knew that I was kidnapped by bandits, they wouldn't send anyone to look for me, and Lin'an wouldn't regret asking for the money back. This is not the best of both worlds."
She speaks with great enthusiasm, and what she does is inconsistent with people's perception. She acts boldly and has her own logic. She is a very cool girl.
Ji Qingwu's vigilance was lowered a lot.
"Hu Feng is ten years older than me." Qi Peiyao pouted and said, "He is not much younger than my father. In front of him, I am always like a child who never grows up. He always controls me in everything."
Ji Qingwu asked: "Then why would you do that?"
Qi Peiyao spread his hands and said, "Hu Feng is just a hypocrite. He said that I am not allowed to get close to his brothers. In order to keep an eye on me, he brought me with him every day."
"In fact, I have long seen through his little tricks. When men are jealous, they will use many tricks."
Qi Peiyao gradually began to like Hu Feng, which led to her wanting to marry this one and that one, and she also wanted to give everyone a home.
But she couldn't be divided into three equal parts. With all the entanglements among them, it would be better for them to live together and continue to be a family.
