Chapter 14 Please Warm Me Up
Seeing Jiang Shihong come in, Wu quickly put away her anger, stood up and walked to Jiang Shihong: "The Marquis is here."
"Why is the gift list on the ground?" Jiang Shihong asked.
Wu picked up the gift list on the ground and handed it to Jiang Shihong, saying, "My Lord, take a look."
Jiang Shihong unfolded it and took a look, then said, "What's wrong with this?"
"These are all gifts with nice names, but they are actually worthless. For example, this pair of golden toads looking at the moon are actually toads and beads carved from wood, painted with a layer of yellow paint!" These are the dowries that Wu gave to Jiang Zhaoyue. They have nice names, but they are actually things she doesn't want.
result!
result!
That bitch Jiang Zhaoyue is back!
"Why would the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion do things this way?" Jiang Shihong frowned.
"That must be..." Wu was about to scold Jiang Zhaoyue, but Jiang Zhaoyue was Jiang Shihong's biological daughter after all. She paused and continued, "Zhaoyue said something to the Duke of Zhenguo, the Duke's wife, or Pei Jingzhou, so they misunderstood us and treated us so poorly."
"Zhaoyue is so ignorant!" Jiang Shihong said unhappily, "Today Junyi just wanted Pei Jingzhou to teach Zhaoyue a lesson, and Pei Jingzhou got angry at that time."
"Is Pei Jingzhou angry?"
"Yeah." Jiang Shihong nodded.
"No wonder he was in a bad mood when eating." Wu hated Jiang Zhaoyue even more.
Jiang Shihong sighed and said, "I'll explain it to Pei Jingzhou when I meet him next time."
"Was it helpful?"
"What else can we do?"
"We still have to start with Zhaoyue."
Jiang Shihong looked at Wu and said, "Zhaoyue is now the daughter-in-law of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion. She has an extraordinary status and she is willful. If she gets impulsive, who knows what she will do."
"I know. I'll plan it well."
"Okay, put this gift list away. I'm going to rest for a while." Jiang Shihong walked towards the inner room.
Wu looked at the gift list in her hand, and felt pain in her heart when she thought about how she had given such a priceless gift out of consideration for the reputation of the Chengning Marquis' Mansion. She couldn't help but throw it on the table and curse Jiang Zhaoyue madly in her heart.
Jiang Zhaoyue knew that Wu would scold her, but she didn't care at all. She sat in the moving carriage and explained the gift list to Pei Jingzhou.
"So." Pei Jingzhou looked at her and said, "You didn't deliver any of the gifts my father listed to the Marquis of Chengning's mansion?"
"Yes." Jiang Zhaoyue replied: "I said, they are not worth it."
"This is against the rules." When Jiang Zhaoyue was sorting out her dowry, she said that she had prepared the list of gifts for the return visit. Pei Jingzhou thought that he had made it very clear when he was angry, and she should do as he wished.
Unexpectedly, she still insisted on her own opinion. Not only did she not prepare gifts according to her father's gift list, she also returned some of the dowry.
"She was the first to break the rules."
"Then as a daughter..." Pei Jingzhou's mind flashed back to the appearance of Marquis Chengning's family. He really didn't deserve those gifts. He changed the subject: "You did the right thing!"
"Really?" Jiang Zhaoyue asked with a smile.
"Yeah." Pei Jingzhou nodded.
"I saved money for the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. I'm such a good wife!"
Pei Jingzhou was speechless.
"Really?" Jiang Zhaoyue moved closer to Pei Jingzhou.
Pei Jingzhou immediately moved to the side.
"Second Master, I am a good wife, right?" Jiang Zhaoyue moved closer to him again.
"Have some self-respect." Pei Jingzhou moved aside again.
"Then tell me, am I a good wife for the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion?"
This woman really has no self-awareness. Pei Jingzhou was helpless. Just at this moment, the carriage stopped.
"Second Master, Second Madam, we've arrived at the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion." Pei Jing's voice rang out.
Pei Jingzhou felt as if he had been pardoned, and quickly stood up and said, "We're here." He quickly got out of the carriage.
Jiang Zhaoyue looked at his back, raised her lips slightly, and whispered: "Can you escape?"
"Second Madam." Xiang Qiao called.
Jiang Zhaoyue slowly stood up and got out of the carriage.
Xiangqiao stood in front of the car and reached out to help Jiang Zhaoyue.
"I don't need your help." Jiang Zhaoyue looked at Pei Jingzhou beside him: "Second Master."
Pei Jingzhou turned his head and came over.
Jiang Zhaoyue reached out to Pei Jingzhou.
"Yingge, help the second lady get off the carriage." Pei Jingzhou said.
"Yes." Yingge responded.
"No, I want Second Master to help me." Jiang Zhaoyue said in a low voice.
As the head maidservant beside Pei Jingzhou, Yingge had seen many women playing tricks in front of Pei Jingzhou, and she expected that Jiang Zhaoyue would be humiliated. Unexpectedly, Pei Jingzhou walked to the carriage with a cold face and reached out to grab Jiang Zhaoyue's arm.
Nanny Sun and others couldn't believe that the Second Master would actually help the Second Mistress.
Jiang Zhaoyue knew that Pei Jingzhou was afraid that she would cause trouble and embarrass him, but her goal was achieved, and she slowly stepped down from the carriage on the wooden steps.
As soon as she touched the ground, she tilted her body and hugged Pei Jingzhou's waist.
So detailed!
So hard!
What a nice waist!
"Jiang Zhaoyue." Pei Jingzhou suppressed his annoyance and called out in a low voice with gritted teeth.
"Are your legs numb?" Jiang Zhaoyue slowly stood up straight, and when she withdrew her hand, she gently pinched Pei Jingzhou's waist.
Pei Jingzhou's scalp suddenly felt numb, and his dark eyes stared at Jiang Zhaoyue.
Jiang Zhaoyue pretended not to understand the meaning in his eyes and said, "Okay, no more numbness, Second Master, let's go back."
"You have to respect yourself in public." Pei Jingzhou said with a cold face.
"I know, I know." Jiang Zhaoyue said in a nonchalant tone.
Pei Jingzhou stepped forward.
Jiang Zhaoyue followed with a smile.
The two came to Songqing Hall together.
Pei Maokun and Wang were both there and asked about some matters concerning the return visit.
Jiang Zhaoyue and Pei Jingzhou both replied that everything was fine.
Pei Maokun and Wang didn't say much and let them go back to rest.
Jiang Zhaoyue and Pei Jingzhou have been extremely tired since their marriage.
After dinner, the two of them cleaned up a bit and went to bed.
Jiang Zhaoyue turned to look at Pei Jingzhou who was lying next to him.
"Sleep well at night." Pei Jingzhou said with his eyes closed.
"Okay." Jiang Zhaoyue agreed readily, then asked, "Second Master, do you want the bridal chamber?"
Pei Jingzhou's eyelids twitched: "Jiang Zhaoyue——"
"I know, I respect myself, I respect myself." Jiang Zhaoyue leaned towards Pei Jingzhou.
"What are you doing?" Pei Jingzhou opened his eyes as if frightened and looked over.
"What are you doing? I'm not going to eat you." Jiang Zhaoyue huddled in the quilt, revealing only her bright little face. "It's getting colder at night. I'm staying warm by leaning on you."
Pei Jingzhou had a stern face and said nothing.
"If you don't believe me, feel it for yourself." Jiang Zhaoyue stretched out her white and tender little feet from her quilt, directly to Pei Jingzhou, and pressed them against Pei Jingzhou's legs.
Pei Jingzhou hissed from the cold.
"Is it cool?" Jiang Zhaoyue asked.
"Why don't you cover yourself with the quilt?"
"It's covered."
"foot."
"Second Master." Jiang Zhaoyue said with a smile, "Second Master, you are amazing. You feel so warm and comfortable. Why don't you warm my feet?"
"You wish!" Pei Jingzhou reached out and pushed Jiang Zhaoyue's legs back, tucked the quilt in, and called out, "Yingge."
"Yes, Second Master." Yingge answered from outside the door.
"Why are you calling Yingge?" Jiang Zhaoyue asked.
