After seeing off the two old men, Jiang Shiyuan turned back to the general's mansion, but Pei Che hadn't left yet.
Seems to be waiting for her.
For two days, they just held hands quietly for a while, without saying a few words.
What should I do? I have a bunch of nonsense that I want to tell him?
Would Master Pei find her annoying and noisy?
Forget it, forget it.
Jiang Shiyuan felt a little uncertain and decided to exercise some restraint.
Now it's different from before. Before, she only cared about herself and did whatever she wanted.
It's different now, she wants Pei Che to be happy and feel comfortable too.
"Do you need to arrange some people to help?" Pei Che asked when he saw her coming.
Jiang Shiyuan looked at the betrothal gifts piled up on the ground and felt a little overwhelmed: "Why did it suddenly increase again? There are many more things than the last gift list."
There was no emotion in Pei Che's dark eyes, and he said calmly: "They are just little things that take up space and are an eyesore. Just right, give them to the cat to play with."
Jiang Shiyuan suppressed the urge to run away, frowned, and sighed.
"well--"
"If I had known that I would marry the imperial tutor in the future, I would not have worked so hard to mix incense or open an incense shop."
"Master, do you know? I recently carefully made a fragrance, using the best spices and putting a lot of thought into it, but it seems that no one likes it and it's all unsalable." Jiang Shiyuan lowered his head and sighed.
"I was so worried that I didn't sleep all night last night. Can you see my eyes?"
Jiang Shiyuan raised his head again and leaned forward to show him the bruises on his eyes.
She has fair skin, and any little color stands out.
Pei Che raised his hand almost unconsciously, and when his calloused fingertips touched the delicate skin, his movement paused unconsciously.
"Will the Master think I am making a big fuss? A small incense shop that earns a lot of money is not as valuable as the Master's inkstone and cups."
Jiang Shiyuan lowered his eyes, somewhat self-deprecating and frustrated.
Pei Che looked at her, feeling the obvious depression in her tone, and also remembered the last time she insisted on her preferences.
"No, in fact, Taifu is not as good as you. Taifu is standing on the roof of the accumulation of hundreds of people and enjoying the fruits of others' labor, but he is not as good as you, who built your own vast world brick by brick by relying on yourself."
His voice was low and gentle, like a gentle breeze and drizzle. His reasoning did not make her feel empty talk, and his praises also made her excited, as if she, Jiang Shiyuan, was really more powerful than the current Taifu.
Jiang Shiyuan was happy again. She was always happy for the whole day if someone praised her.
"Master, I lied."
Jiang Shiyuan suddenly changed the subject and looked at him intently.
Pei Che lowered his eyes and looked at her doubtfully, and their eyes immediately met.
Jiang Shiyuan raised his head, his eyes sparkling, and a smile on his lips: "That worry is fake."
"I didn't sleep last night because of Master."
He pursed his lips slightly, then suddenly they rose without any warning.
Jiang Shiyuan watched Pei Che's lips curl up and his eyes smile because of his words. His heart felt as if it was filled with honey and sugar. In addition to the sweetness, there was also a little sense of accomplishment.
A sense of achievement that makes you like it and feel happy.
"I didn't sleep all night either." Pei Che responded.
Yeah?
Was Taifu just like her, full of anticipation and yet anxious at the same time, and then spent the whole night hugging the cat and talking to himself?
Well, this time she was coaxed so much that the corners of her mouth were about to fly to the sky.
Jiang Shiyuan didn't dare to look into his eyes again, his gaze shifted and involuntarily fell on his thin lips again, the throbbing in his heart turned into a clamor again.
What should I do? I really want to commit adultery and kiss him.
"Hey - those two over there -"
Jiang Shiyuan was about to make a move when a dissatisfied voice suddenly sounded in his ears. Jiang Shiyuan turned his head and saw Jiang Xingzhuo standing behind them at some point, with a terrified Zhou Jingshen beside him.
Jiang Xingzhuo was also convinced. He had been shouting since he was ten steps away, and had been walking all the way from that end to this end. In the past two days, he was like a deaf person, with no response at all.
It's fine if Jiang Shiyuan is stupid when he comes, but what's wrong with Pei Che?
Jiang Xingzhuo suspected that Pei Che was hiding it on purpose, pretending not to hear his voice and deliberately giving him eye drops.
Isn't it just taking a piece of fish from him? As for holding a grudge now?
The more Jiang Xingzhuo thought about it, the angrier he became.
It's time for all the civil and military officials in the court to come and see how worthless their current Taifu is!
It's just an engagement, is it necessary to be so disgusting at first sight?
What will happen if they get married?
I’ve had enough! He would rather kill the enemies and be stabbed than watch them suffer! !
Jiang Xingzhuo appeared cursing, Jiang Shiyuan's face was burning hot, and he tried to suppress the evil thoughts in his heart.
Forget about one day, but this time!
This time she drank some wine, and then she threw herself on him and took a bite.
"The Zhou family is here to congratulate you. They are too busy to come here, so I brought you in." Jiang Xingzhuo pointed at Zhou Jingshen and said.
Zhou Jingshen was in a daze the whole time he walked.
Although he knew before that Master Pei seemed to value Jiang Shiyuan very much, he was still shocked when he saw the proposal today.
Because Jiang Shiyuan liked riding horses, Pei Che bought the largest ranch in the city and gave it to Jiang Shiyuan for horse racing.
Because Jiang Shiyuan likes to make perfume, Pei Che hired flower farmers around the capital so that Jiang Shiyuan would have endless flowers for the whole season.
This was not enough. As a betrothal gift to Jiang Shiyuan, almost all the gold shops and jewellery pavilions in the capital were emptied, especially the pearls, luminous pearls and oriental pearls, which were almost all brought to the Taifu Mansion and then to the General's Mansion the next day.
Master Pei looks like he wants to pick all the stars in the sky to give to her. How can this be just a marriage?
This clearly means putting you at the top of your heart and loving you deep in your bones.
Zhou Jingshen was shocked by his own idea, but his mind started to work uncontrollably, and an incredible guess emerged -
What if Pei Che has always had a special liking for Jiang Shiyuan?
If that's the case, then all these signs make sense -
Pei Taifu suddenly changed, Pei Taifu did not hide his preference, and Pei Taifu was impatient for the marriage news.
Ahhhh!
Zhou Jingshen suddenly wanted to scream, he seemed to have discovered some incredible secret!
When was that? When did Pei Che fall in love with Jiang Shiyuan?
When did Pei Che and Jiang Shiyuan meet?
Dead brain, think quickly!
All of Zhou Jingshen's curiosity was aroused, and all the blood in his body gathered in one place. He thought desperately, and his mind had never been so sharp.
I remember, I remember, Luming Academy! !
