"Mother, please have some tea."
Jiang Shiyuan held the tea and knelt down in front of Old Madam Pei. He had just touched the ground when he was pulled up by Old Madam Pei.
"Good boy, get up quickly."
Old Madam Pei drank the tea with a smile on her face, then placed a handful of night pearls on the tray behind Jiang Shiyuan.
"I heard you like these little things. Use them to make a toy. Then come back to me for more when you have enough."
Jiang Shiyuan's eyes widened in surprise.
Come on!
How come he just grabbed a handful of these night-shining pearls and little stones and gave them to her like grabbing a melon?
She wouldn't dare to grab melons like this.
As soon as Mrs. Pei finished speaking, Pei Zheng was already eager to say, "Big brother has this too."
Madam Song gave him a glare and said, "Be more reserved and don't scare your sister-in-law."
Everyone laughed, as if they were used to it.
Jiang Shiyuan was also amused. He took the tea brought by the servant and placed it in front of Pei Zheng and Song with both hands.
"Brother and sister-in-law, please have some tea."
Pei Zheng and Song responded and received the tea. Pei Zheng also followed Mrs. Pei's example and grabbed a handful of tea from the brocade box behind him and put it on the tray.
Hongdou held the tray and her eyes suddenly widened.
A handful of sparkling rubies given by the head of the Pei family.
Mrs. Pei was more reserved and gave him a manor, which was not too big, about half of the mountainside.
Then he met Pei Zanxue's mother. Master Pei was originally from a side branch, but because his mother died early, Mrs. Pei took him in to raise him. Mrs. Pei not only raised him, but also helped him get married and married the daughter of her old sister, Mrs. Wendehou, who was also Ye Wanning's aunt.
Mr. Pei is good at speaking, but the Pei family is very narrow-minded and none of them are generous.
Master Pei drank the tea and casually gave Jiang Shiyuan a handful of bright red coral beads. Each bead was the same size and color, which was very pleasing to the eye.
The second wife, Mrs. Ye, gave a rouge shop. By coincidence, the shop was next to Jiang Shiyuan's incense shop, and the business was very good.
"Sister-in-law, you have a good color. This rouge shop is just right for you."
Jiang Shiyuan was flattered. Pei Che stayed by her side, helping her up when she stood up, and quietly took the things when she was panicking.
If you can't bear anything, you can bear it no matter how much.
Soon, the tray was filled with things.
After paying respects to the elders, it is the turn of the younger generation to pay their respects.
Maybe he was used to Pei Ye and Pei Zanxue calling him "little aunt". Seeing those nephews who were older than him bowing to him, Jiang Shiyuan did not show any fear.
But when it was the turn of those little kids to kneel on the ground and shout to her, "Grandson, meet your grandma"——
Jiang Shiyuan directly pinched Pei Che's hand.
I'm used to it. I'm totally used to it.
Jiang Shiyuan gave each child a big purse, in which were small kumquats bought specially from a gold shop. They were round and had a small leaf, which was very childish.
"Wow - thank you grandma." The children really liked it and cheered continuously.
Jiang Shiyuan held back his laughter and quietly asked Pei Che: "When are we going back to the Taifu Mansion?"
The Pei family was very lively, but she was really having trouble with the constant voice of "Grandma".
"When you return home, we will move back to the Taifu Mansion." Pei Che comforted him.
After serving tea, it was almost time for dinner, and the Pei family alone filled the large table.
This family dinner was very enjoyable. Jiang Shiyuan felt awkward sitting next to Pei Che.
Mrs. Pei was also in high spirits. After dinner, she suggested playing Ye-Dou cards.
"Yuan'er, do you know how to play cards?" asked Mrs. Pei.
Jiang Shiyuan hid the excitement in his eyes and said implicitly, "A little bit."
More than just a little bit.
She is so good at it.
She likes playing chess, but she also likes playing cards and is very talented at it.
When she was at home, she could win all the battles in the general's mansion. Outside, she even beat Pei Che, for which she even gave Pei Che a slap on the head.
This was the only game in which she could beat Pei Che.
"Then let's play around."
Madam Pei immediately ordered people to clear the table and set out the playing cards.
Madam Pei sat at the head, Jiang Shiyuan was sandwiched between Madam Pei and the first Madam Song, and opposite to her was the second Madam Ye.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law played cards, while the men drank tea and chatted on the side. Pei Che's eyes drifted towards the card table from time to time.
Pei Zheng looked at her and said, "That's enough. Stop being so clingy. You'll be disliked."
Master Pei laughed first.
Pei Zheng looked at him: "Second brother, what are you laughing at?"
Master Pei said bluntly: "You are very experienced in laughing at me, and you have experience in being despised."
Pei Zheng was happy. He admitted that he was a little clingy when he first got married, and he hated to be tied to Song Jinzhi's belt. But, was he, Pei Erlang, so kind?
"I am better than you, right? I like you just because I like you. You are so stubborn. You have a sour face, and when you see me looking at other men, I get jealous and run to propose marriage at night. You throw all the rules and etiquette out of your mind. I am talking about a scumbag!" Pei Zheng was unwilling to show weakness.
Master Pei's face darkened and he said, "The wontons at the end of the alley are made with a century-old craft. My sister-in-law likes them. I'll make wontons for you."
Pei Zheng frowned: "!!"
Pei Zheng was very happy and wanted to ask Pei Che for justice, but Pei Che was busy and his eyes were only on Jiang Shiyuan who was standing opposite him.
He watched her rubbing her hands together, eager to try, but then she moved slowly, frowned and pondered, and finally fell into self-doubt.
Jiang Shiyuan lost.
놊Not only did I lose, I lost three games in a row.
Even though he had the best cards, he was still surrounded and blocked in the end and lost 70% of his money.
how so?
What about her card skills? She is obviously good at fighting!
놆She hasn't played for too long? ?
Seeing that Jiang Shiyuan's cards were playing slower and slower, Mrs. Pei couldn't help laughing and said, "We have a rule in the Pei family. There is a cap on the amount of cards left at the table. My dear wife, I'm afraid you will lose all the money you won today."
Jiang Shiyuan was stunned: Is it such a big deal?
Madam Song looked at the cards and agreed, "That tray is not enough. It will be gone after a few rounds. I need Xiao Ye to bring more. Xiao Ye has wanted the Chengdong Racecourse for a long time. I will win it back for him today."
Jiang Shiyuan was trembling with fear, and he felt that he had a firm grasp on the cards.
Is the Pei family so scary?
She was so confused by Pei Che's victory that she felt that it was a "big gamble" and a great betrayal.
They play at home and they become a horse farm?
etc--
East City Racecourse? Pei Che's?
Seeing Jiang Shiyuan frightened, the second wife Ye opposite couldn't help laughing. The mother-in-law and the eldest sister-in-law were trying to deceive her again, just like they did to her back then.
"There is this rule in the rules, but the rules don't say that you can ask others for help, right, sister-in-law?" Ye reminded.
Jiang Shiyuan immediately understood and looked up pitifully to find Pei Che.
But can Pei Che win?
Pei Che only played once and lost to her.
Almost the first moment she asked for help, Pei Che followed her sight.
He walked over and asked, "Lost?"
"I'll do it."
Pei Che said, taking the cards from Jiang Shiyuan's hand.
He only took a glance at the table and memorized all the cards. Then he bet on the eldest lady and won. Then he followed closely behind Madam Pei and revealed her bottom card.
The card game was fierce, and the three people at the table were caught off guard.
Jiang Shiyuan was stunned: "When did you become so good at playing?"
Pei Che turned his head to look at her: "Why, you are allowed to coax me, but I am allowed to coax you?"
