Chapter 374 Horse Farm Provocation
The chicken soup was very rich, and the oil at the bottom had been drained away. It was served with big wontons, and Song Ci tasted very sweet.
When she looked up, she saw Pei Ji was just looking at her without moving his chopsticks.
She subconsciously felt that there was something on her face and reached out to wipe it: "But there is something on my face."
"No, I just think it smells good watching you eat."
He even felt at ease. It was a feeling that was hard to explain. Ever since Pei Ji was old enough to understand things, he had always been alone: eating alone, working alone, and studying alone.
He has become accustomed to being alone for many years.
I originally thought that such days would continue forever, but I never expected that he would marry Song Ci.
Song Dynasty porcelain has this kind of magic that makes her and those around her feel happy and at ease.
"Don't just look at me, eat too."
"good."
The two of them each ate a big bowl of wontons and were very satisfied.
Pei Ji finished eating but was in no hurry to leave. He turned to her and said, "I have nothing to do today. Why don't I take you out?"
Song Ci turned her head to look at him, her eyes full of joy. Pei Ji knew that she was happy.
Being stuck in the courtyard all day is not Song Ci's personality. She is free and unrestrained. She is a free-flying bird, not a caged bird trapped in the backyard.
The two of them left in a carriage. Song Ci lifted the curtain and looked out the window. The breeze blew on her face, blowing away the unpleasantness and events of recent days, making her feel a little better.
A few strands of hair were blown around her ears, and Pei Ji reached out to help her tidy them up, his movements gentle and delicate.
"If you like, I'll take you out often in the future."
"Where are we going today?"
"Do you like riding horses?"
His question was very sudden. Song Ci was slightly stunned. She had no experience in riding a horse, but she didn't mind it. Then the two decided to give it a try.
When Pei Ji arrived at the racecourse, he took A Lin into the racecourse to choose a horse. Song Ci stood there waiting. The weather was very good today. The racecourse was very spacious, with no clouds in the sky and an endless blue sky.
But this tranquility was soon broken by a group of people who appeared before them.
"Miss Song, that's not right. I should call you the Crown Prince's wife now."
The young lady standing in front of him was followed by two young ladies in pink and goose yellow dresses. The three of them looked Song Ci up and down. The lady was okay, but the eyes of the two young ladies behind her were not friendly.
Song Ci nodded slightly, "May I ask who it is, Madam?"
The lady smiled and said, "It's all my fault. I didn't have time to introduce him. My husband's last name is Yue."
Song Ci still couldn't remember this family, so she just smiled and said, "Mrs. Yue."
Madam Yue looked around and said, "Did the Crown Prince's wife come to the horse farm alone today?"
Before she could speak, the young lady in the light yellow dress smiled and covered her lips with her hands. "Mother, you are putting the Crown Prince's wife in a difficult position. She was born in a humble family, so how could she know how to ride a horse? She must have come here to have some fun."
The lady in the pink dress said unhappily, "Sister, what nonsense are you talking about? Ask the Crown Prince's wife to apologize."
The light yellow lady said: "What did I say wrong, Madam Crown Prince, can you ride a horse?"
Song Ci: "I can't."
The disdain on her face was even more obvious. "That's what I said."
At this time, the lady seemed to have just realized something and smiled at Song Ci with a bad intention, "Don't blame me, Madam Crown Prince. My daughter has been spoiled. I will definitely scold her later."
"Yes, Madam Crown Prince, please don't blame my sister. She is young and ignorant."
If he really felt guilty, he would have stopped the lady from speaking at the beginning. Now he is just trying to smooth things over.
Song Ci didn't take it to heart. She had heard such words countless times. If she were angry at everyone, she would have died of anger long ago.
"What are you doing?"
At this time, Pei Ji, who was walking with his horse, slowly walked behind Song Ci and held her shoulder with one hand. The lady in front of him froze for a moment, then said, "I didn't expect that the prince would be here too."
Pei Ji ignored him and looked at Song Ci instead, "What's wrong?"
Song Ci shook her head. She didn't want these people to affect her mood, so she didn't plan to tell Pei Ji about these little blowjobs.
Song Ci: "I'm fine. Have you chosen the horse?"
Pei Ji: "Well, I picked a horse with a gentle temperament. This horse is suitable for you."
The two of them were talking and laughing. Pei Ji's handsome face was really eye-catching in the huge carriage. His appearance was the best in the capital. No matter who's young lady or young lady, no one had ever said that Pei Ji was not good-looking.
The lady in front was fine, but the two young ladies behind him stared with their eyes wide open, and didn't come back to their senses for a long time.
"Don't look, everyone's gone."
The two young ladies came back to their senses, their faces showing no embarrassment at all. The yellow-haired young lady was outgoing and asked directly, "This prince is surprisingly so young. I heard that he is very much favored by the emperor and he is so handsome..."
The lady in the pink dress smiled but didn't respond.
"So what if he is good-looking? He is already married, and your father will not allow you to be his concubine." The lady said helplessly.
These two daughters were born well, but they were really spoiled. She was not kidding about this.
The lady in the light yellow dress didn't care. Her eyes followed Pei Ji's back and she murmured with some regret: "What a pity, marrying such a man. With his looks and family background, how can the prince's wife be worthy of him?"
"I think it's the prince who likes this young lady very much." The lady said in a firm tone.
"Mother, she is only slightly prettier, which is why she is so beloved by the prince. If I were to take the position of young lady, I am sure the prince would like me."
Seeing that she was getting more and more outrageous, the lady reached out and pulled her, "Stop talking nonsense to me. It's outrageous. You're not even married yet, and you're not ashamed to say such things."
"I'm not ashamed. He's the most beautiful man I've ever seen. If I could marry him, I'd be willing to die."
The lady in pink dress was also thoughtful. Thinking of Pei Ji's appearance, she couldn't help but feel distracted.
A beauty like that is rare in the capital, and I have never seen anyone better than Pei Ji.
"Don't forget, your uncle's position as imperial merchant was taken away by the Song family." When the lady said this, the smile on her face gradually disappeared.
They are the Imperial Concubine, a branch of her maternal family. They originally lived quite well thanks to the Imperial Concubine's halo and wealthy family background. However, they never expected that the position of Imperial Merchant, which they were sure to win this year, would be snatched away by the suddenly emerged and unknown Qiao family.
After careful inquiry, I found out that the Qiao family had a relationship with the Pei family.
They naturally understood that it was Song Ci who asked Pei Ji for mercy, which helped the Qiao family obtain the position of imperial merchant.
However, they were not wrong.
"What is Mother going to do?"
