Chapter 252 Did your mother appear in your dream?
One can imagine the smell on her body. Zheng Yufu pinched her nose and stepped back in disgust. This look fell into everyone's eyes, making them dislike her even more.
Seeing that there was no one for her among the three carriages, she became unhappy and walked to Pei Ji's carriage and said, "Brother Pei, I wonder where my carriage is."
Ah Lin in the carriage was so happy. Her carriage? What kind of carriage did she have?
Pei Ji's brows were furrowed so much that he almost pinched a fly to death.
"There are only three carriages, no extra ones. I'm afraid Miss Zheng will follow the crowd behind and leave together." Alin's voice came from the carriage. Zheng Yufu was so angry that she almost bit her tongue.
She asked unwillingly, "But, but I am just a weak woman. If... there is really no carriage for me to ride, why not I ride with Brother Pei?" The last part of her voice was actually slightly shy.
A Lin in the carriage was shocked by her audacity. He had noticed that this woman always looked at the young master, but he didn't expect that she had such an idea!
If Miss Song knew about this, she might misunderstand her own son!
No, he couldn't let this woman become a troublemaker.
"no."
Zheng Yufu was immediately displeased and asked sharply, "Why? This carriage is so big, what's wrong with me being the only one here?"
"Because, because my mother asked a fortune teller to tell me my fortune, and she said that if I get close to any girl this year, I will be unlucky!" Alin gritted his teeth and lied directly.
Pei Ji glanced at him from the side, with a half-smile, "How could I not know about this? And, your mother? Your mother has been dead for so many years. She told you in a dream."
Alin's face turned red with embarrassment.
He is doing this to help the young master!
Before he could say anything, Pei Ji decisively spoke up. He, who was usually soft-spoken, raised his voice so that everyone around him could hear, "Miss Zheng, it's not appropriate for men and women to touch each other. Besides, I'm not used to riding in the same carriage with anyone."
Zheng Yufu felt hot on her face after being rejected so bluntly.
The soldiers around her looked at her with eyes full of ridicule, making her almost too embarrassed to stay.
But then he thought, if he couldn't ride in a carriage, what about Song Dynasty porcelain? Why could Song Dynasty porcelain be ridden?
"What about Miss Song? Miss Song has a carriage to ride in, why can't I? We are both women, why are you showing favoritism? Otherwise, let me ride with Miss Song." Zheng Yufu felt that she had already given in enough.
This time, she impersonated the female family member of one of Pei Ji's soldiers in order to get him to take her back to the capital. Logically speaking, her "father" had died with Pei Ji, so shouldn't her status be higher than Song Ci's?
Sitting in the carriage, Song Ci drank tea leisurely, listening to Zheng Yufu's shouting outside with a sneer on his face.
But before she could even speak, the soldiers around her became unhappy.
"What nonsense are you talking about! What's wrong with Miss Song? Why are you competing with Miss Song?"
"Do you know how much Miss Song has paid? Besides, she already had a carriage when she came, but she lost it because of us. This carriage was personally found by Lord Pei and given to her. How can it be considered partiality? When you came, you were penniless."
"Miss Zheng, please stop yelling. It's been half a day. We've already reported this to the capital because you delayed our departure. If you can't make it back in time and the emperor holds you accountable, can you handle the consequences?"
Zheng Yufu was speechless after being questioned.
But she still refused to accept it. Song Ci was just a woman. This was a border, a battlefield. What had she contributed? At most, she could only make soup and cook. What was there to brag about?
But she was stronger than the force, so she decided to suppress it temporarily and find an opportunity to ask for the carriage. She had to get on the carriage no matter what, and she couldn't bear to walk back like this.
She is not one of those cheap soldiers.
Pei Ji was not idle in the carriage either. He sent someone to ask Song Ci and others if there was enough hot water. He also brought some good tea leaves. He also asked if the carriage was comfortable and whether it would shake Song Ci.
In short, he asked back and forth several times along the way, which made Wanxiang a little annoyed.
"Why is Mr. Pei so hesitant now?" She muttered, lowered the carriage curtain, and looked at Tian'er who was smiling.
"Look at what I'm doing? I didn't make you angry." Tian'er raised the corners of her lips and smiled.
"why are you laughing."
"I'm laughing. Master Pei really cares about the young lady. He wants to take care of everything."
Wanxiang didn't know much about love between men and women, but she immediately reacted after being reminded of this.
Yes, if he hadn't cared about it, how could he have been so thorough? He would send someone to ask about everything, and the person who came to ask was A Lin, Pei Ji's closest attendant.
Her eyes were suddenly filled with emotions, sometimes happy, sometimes sad.
Tian'er noticed that something was wrong with her and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I don't know whether to be happy or sad right now."
Song Ci also looked over curiously, wondering why Wanxiang said that.
"Ms. Pei is nervous, why are you so sad?"
Wanxiang tugged at her skirt, looking uneasy. "I heard the Pei family is very prestigious, with a lot of wealth and strict rules. I'm afraid the young lady will take me with her if she marries them. You're lucky, as you grew up by Princess Le Yi's side, so you won't make mistakes. But I don't understand the rules and am used to being free and undisciplined. What if I embarrass the young lady?"
After she finished speaking, Song Ci almost spit out the tea she had just drunk. How did they get to the point of getting married?
Although she knew that Pei Ji and she shared the same thoughts, she also had many concerns.
What's more, there is a huge gap between the Song family and the Pei family. Pei Ji was poisoned in his previous life, but he was still able to climb to such a powerful position. In this life, the poison has been cured, and he has no worries at all. What should he do?
Everything is unknown, and Song Ci never places its hopes on others.
The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
"Please put aside your unfounded worries. This whole marriage thing is just nonsense."
Wanxiang noticed that her tone was wrong, "Miss, are you unhappy?"
Song Ci didn't say anything, but just looked at the curtain that fluttered from time to time, with a thoughtful look on his face.
Tian'er was afraid that she would continue to ask, so she pulled Wanxiang and lowered her voice, "Miss, you might be hungry. Didn't A Lin send milk cakes earlier? Let Miss have a taste."
The carriage is only this big, and no matter how soft Tian'er's voice is, Song Ci can hear it as long as he is not deaf.
She couldn't bring herself to tell Wanxiang what was going on in her mind, but she also knew that something was wrong with her just now, so she softened her tone, "I'm a little hungry, hurry up and give me some tea. This tea is really good, it wouldn't be a waste if I had a few more cups."
