"Is this the best gift?"
Pei Che looked at the twenty-seven grasshoppers neatly arranged in front of him.
Although they looked majestic, he was long past the age for playing with these toys. Besides, he had already collected a grasshopper like this ten years ago.
There is no need to collect twenty-seven more.
"Also, twenty-seven in lunar age, twenty-six in actual age."
Ever since he was called "Old Pei" last time, Pei Che, who was very sensitive about age, picked up a grasshopper and threw it aside.
Jiang Shiyuan at the side couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Are you sure it's lost?"
Today is Pei Che's birthday. She started thinking about giving him a birthday present half a month ago, but she couldn't think of what this man needed.
He always stuffed piles of gold, silver and jewelry into her hands.
Every year people give him pens, ink and books as gifts, but there is nothing new.
She was willing to give a gift, of course, it must be unique and unforgettable, so she wanted this grasshopper that carried their common memories.
Jiang Shiyuan picked up a grasshopper and said seriously, "This is not an ordinary grasshopper. This is a magic grasshopper that has been cast by a fairy in the sky and can help people fulfill their wishes. It is more powerful than the Bodhisattva in the temple. If you throw one away, you will have one less wish, okay?"
Pei Che looked at her: "Is that fairy's surname Jiang?"
Jiang Shiyuan nodded and raised his eyebrows to meet his gaze: "My surname is Jiang, my name is Ai Pei, and my courtesy name is Buyu."
Pei Che smiled, stretched out his hand to pull her into his arms, lowered his head and kissed her.
That is indeed the best gift.
"Any wish can come true, unconditionally?"
"Unconditionally."
Jiang Shiyuan felt a slight itch on his cheek and dodged for a moment, but was pulled back by Pei Che.
"We've been married for more than two months, what do you want to do to me, huh?"
Pei Che bit her earlobe and questioned angrily.
But that morning she broke her promise and failed to get up to light the lamp for him. She called him "husband" once, and never called him that again.
It would have been fine if he was just called Grand Tutor or Lord Pei, but they actually called him 'Old Pei'.
Is he old?
He is in the prime of life.
Jiang Shiyuan sneered, knowing exactly what he wanted to hear, but he refused: "I respect you and value you, so is there anything wrong with calling you 'Grand Tutor' and 'Master Pei'?"
Before he could finish his words, he felt a tingling sensation in his ears. He knew her sensitive spots very well. Jiang Shiyuan trembled and gave in.
"You know what I want to hear."
Pei Che gently rubbed the soft flesh beside her ear, refusing to let go until she agreed.
Jiang Shiyuan's scalp was numbed by him, and she could only call out in a trembling voice: "Husband, please forgive me."
Pei Che let out a light laugh of pleasure.
The first wish was used up by Pei Che.
He reached in and tried to make a second move, but was stopped by Jiang Shiyuan, "Let's go, mother and brother are still waiting for us at the old house."
Pei Che didn't like to celebrate anything, nor did he think a small birthday was worth celebrating. In previous years, he would remember what day it was only when Mrs. Pei sent him a bowl of longevity noodles.
But this year is different.
Some people think that he is unique and treat his birthday as a celebration. They send him blessings as soon as he opens his eyes and prepare unique gifts.
"good."
Pei Che suppressed his surging emotions and let her go for the time being.
The two of them packed up a bit and took a car back to the Pei family's old house.
Pei Che and Jiang Shiyuan heard the sound of gongs and drums when the carriage was still far away. They got off the carriage and looked -
The Pei residence was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and there was a stage at the door with gongs and drums playing. If you didn't know, you would think the Pei family was having another wedding.
Pei Che's eyes darkened, and Jiang Shiyuan smiled: "It's obvious that this was arranged by my eldest brother."
After entering the door, I saw Pei Zheng busying around, and the Pei Mansion was decorated with new decorations.
"Juro is back."
When Pei Zheng saw Pei Che, he immediately waved, put his arm around Pei Che's shoulders, and pulled him into the courtyard of Pei Che's old residence.
As soon as he entered the door, Jiang Shiyuan couldn't help but exclaimed: "Wow——"
I saw that the room was filled with brocade boxes, like a small mountain.
"Are these the gifts that Big Brother prepared for my husband?" Jiang Shiyuan smacked his lips.
Pei Zheng's posture clearly made up for Pei Che's previous twenty-six, oh no, twenty years.
Pei Zheng straightened his chest and pointed backwards: "The pile of things on the table are yours. There are eighteen of them."
"Me too?!"
Jiang Shiyuan widened his eyes in surprise and turned around to see that there was indeed a pile of brocade boxes of different sizes on the square table not far away.
Pei Zheng nodded: "Yes, let's make up for both of your birthdays today, and then we can celebrate them separately in the future."
Jiang Shiyuan didn't know whether the master of the Pei family treated her as Pei Che or treated Pei Che as her, or whether in his eyes, Pei Che and she would always be the younger brother and sister who needed care.
"Thank you, brother."
Jiang Shiyuan happily opened his presents and from the first box he found a pair of jade bracelets, which were crystal clear and of high quality.
Put it on, put it on.
Jiang Shiyuan immediately put it on his hand and opened the second one.
The second one was a sapphire ring. The gem on it was as big as a pigeon egg and it shone so brightly that it was blinding.
Wear it, wear it, must wear it!
"So happy?"
Pei Che looked at her, excited like a mouse that fell into a rice jar, his eyes shining, and he couldn't help but want to laugh.
"Aren't you happy to receive gifts? Others receive one a year, but I receive eighteen at a time. What's more, today is not my birthday. It's like a windfall from heaven. God blesses me. I'm so happy."
Jiang Shiyuan raised his hand, squinted his eyes to admire the shining little stone in his hand, and couldn't help but sighed: "Your old Pei family is really rich!"
Jiang Shiyuan realized that he had triggered the "prohibition" after he finished speaking, and hurriedly turned to look at Pei Che.
Pei Che stood behind her with his back to the light, smiling and looking affectionate, "Then I'll give you mine too."
Jiang Shiyuan was happy in her heart but did not show it on her face. She proudly stretched out her hand with a large gem ring and a jade bracelet and stretched it in front of him.
"It's so heavy. My hands are tired. Master Pei, give me a hand."
Pei Che chuckled, held her fingers, and led her from her birthday present to his birthday present.
"Will you give me all the demolitions?"
"Well, all for you."
"Okay, then I'll work harder."
Jiang Shiyuan reluctantly opened Pei Che's first gift and burst into laughter.
"There is a reason why Sister Jinzhi fell in love with Big Brother, and it has nothing to do with wontons." She was sure.
The head of the Pei family seemed to have anticipated this, and all the gifts he gave to Pei Che were in pairs, the same colored glaze cups, the same clay inkstones, two of each.
Pei Che has it, and so does she.
