Pei Che played the leaf cards so skillfully that Jiang Shiyuan was stunned.
Pei Che was right, she was just a piece of rotten wood.
Otherwise, how could he naively think that he could beat Pei Che, and then deliberately eat an extra bowl of rice and flicked his forehead fiercely!
Is that an ordinary forehead?
That is the forehead of the emperor that holds a splendid chapter of the country and the people!
Jiang Shiyuan looked at Pei Che's smooth forehead and curled his lips.
Fortunately, it was not damaged, otherwise she would not be able to become the wife of the Grand Tutor.
…
The situation at the poker table became tense, and finally the whole family joined in the battle.
After Pei Che supported Jiang Shiyuan, the Second Madam was the first to be defeated. Pei Zanxue refused to give in and shouted, "Dad, come quickly. Mom is going to lose."
So Mr. Pei took over the Second Madam's cards, just like when the Second Madam first came to visit the Pei family with the old lady of Marquis De and was deceived and confused by her aunt and sister-in-law.
Our Pei family naturally did not want to let his wife fight alone, so he also joined in. The couple, one holding the cards and the other touching the cards, cooperated well.
This made Old Madam Pei angry, "Are you bullying me, a widow and a lonely person?"
Pei Ziye took the opportunity to get to the old lady's side and said, "See, at the critical moment, even my son is unreliable. I still have to rely on my grandson."
In the final game of cards, everyone fed the old lady a card, allowing her to win a huge sum of money and the game ended successfully.
The Pei family hadn't had such a relaxed gathering for a long time, and it was the first time that Pei Che sat together with his family except for eating.
It's like being like Jiang Shiyuan. Everything I do becomes natural and reasonable. No one will find it strange, and no one will have to think about whether it is right or wrong.
"Thanks."
As the two of them walked back to their room in the moonlight, Pei Che couldn't help but say.
Jiang Shiyuan looked at the shadows of the two holding hands and smiled.
"Why are you saying thank you to me? During the day, you are the big brother, but now it's you. It has nothing to do with me. They love you, and you have always loved them."
Jiang Shiyuan hasn't been this happy for a long time. She likes lively occasions, especially this kind of lively occasions where everyone treats her as a treasure and actively accepts her.
She knew that it was not because she was so likable, nor because she had done so many extraordinary things, but because they loved Pei Che and respected Pei Che, so they liked and recognized her.
"You are a family that is as close as blood. No matter what happens, you will help each other and take care of each other. It has nothing to do with me."
Jiang Shiyuan said, her chest suddenly felt a little stuffy. She looked up at the moonlight in the sky and sighed softly.
"Now, they are your family too. And—"
Pei Che stopped, turned around and held her face: "In the future, we will still be with our own flesh and blood, our own family."
Jiang Shiyuan's nerves twitched, and he thought of a question: "Then will our child also be a younger uncle when he is born?"
Pei Che thought about it seriously: "We are a distant family, and our grandchildren are all married. To be honest, our child can be a grandfather as soon as he is born."
Jiang Shiyuan chuckled: "This generation is really high."
Pei Che took her hand again and walked forward slowly.
The night wind was bleak, but Jiang Shiyuan felt warm in his heart.
How wonderful it is that Pei Che has a harmonious family and so many people care about him.
She was not bad either. She loved her aunt and cousin, had always taken care of her nanny and Hongdou, and now she loved Pei Che again, and she also wanted to divide Pei Che among her family members.
People can't always focus on what they don't have, they should think more about what they already have, right?
"Is the East City Horse Farm yours?" Jiang Shiyuan suddenly asked.
Pei Che did not deny it.
It goes without saying that the horse was trained by him.
"Why did you think of training a horse for me?" His time was so precious.
Pei Che didn't know what he was thinking at the time.
Although he had made up his mind to watch from the sidelines, his heart was still stirred when he heard that she had appeared at Chengdong Racecourse.
Even though she didn't come for him, even though they were just an unintentional intruder and a behind-the-scenes boss.
But this might be their latest relationship.
The distance from the observation deck to the horse farm may also be the closest distance between him and her.
Therefore, some greedy people want to maintain this relationship that does not cross the line but has an extra layer of bond than strangers, just for comfort.
"Do you always say hello every time I ride a horse?" Jiang Shiyuan asked again.
Pei Che nodded and said truthfully: "Yeah. I like to see you galloping, because as long as I see you happy, my guilt will be lighter."
Jiang Shiyuan reached out and covered his mouth. She didn't like hearing that word.
This is why she didn't want to talk too much about the past, because she couldn't avoid the bitter memories of Pei Che.
Pei Che was much calmer. He kissed her palm and held her hand to continue walking forward.
"Whether it's the horses from the Chengdong Horse Farm or any other horses you find, don't feel burdened. Think of it as my self-salvation."
Jiang Shiyuan, however, grasped the key point in his words. She was always good at grasping the key point.
"Others? Anything else?"
Besides Madam Ru, the white sandalwood, the transcribed books, and the horse in the east of the city, is there anything else?
Then she would have to look for it carefully.
Jiang Shiyuan showed great interest.
How could she feel burdened?
If she knew that Pei Che had been silently protecting her, she would not have been resentful and avoiding him for so many years.
She always resented him, blaming him for being heartless and treating her like a cat or a dog, taking her home to kill time and kicking her aside when he got tired of her.
They had clearly spent such a cold day together, and had agreed to fly kites together and celebrate her birthday, so how could he just disappear like that?
She thought, perhaps it was the emperor's urgent order that forced him to leave the capital overnight. Didn't his parents also receive the order in times of crisis and leave the capital overnight for the northwest? Didn't they also not have time to talk to themselves?
However, my parents wrote to me immediately after they arrived in the Northwest.
She thought that Pei Che would write to her when he arrived in Shuzhou.
She took out the map her parents used when they went to war, and calculated over and over again the travel time from the capital to Shuzhou.
He should be there in a month.
Perhaps within a month, his letter would have been sent halfway, and she would receive it next month.
But she waited month after month, and nothing happened.
He had been in Shuzhou for many years and had never sent her a single word.
How could Pei Che be so ruthless?
While she was blaming him, she reflected on herself again and again. She recalled every moment she had spent with him over and over again, and discovered many problems.
Did she burn down his study on purpose and he saw through it, or was she always trying to be clever and making him dislike her?
She broke a lot of his things, told a lot of lies, and talked all day long. Even his teacher didn't like her.
She heard them discussing themselves in the study. Master Cui said that she was naughty, noisy and trouble-making, and wanted to send her back to the general's mansion.
Everything became traceable. In the first year, she was just suspicious. In the second year, the suspicion turned into certainty. In the third year, she was convinced.
Look, Jiang Shiyuan, you were naughty and mischievous, so you were driven out of the palace and rejected by Pei Che.
Otherwise, why didn't he send you a single message in the past few years? Even if you ask her, will she still act foolishly? 'Nothing.
If only he had asked, if only he had, she would have answered him:
Jiang Shiyuan no longer acts foolishly. She no longer causes trouble. She is quiet and well-behaved.
She blamed him, but she blamed herself even more.
So, on the day he returned to Beijing from Shuzhou, she went to Ruyi Tower and saw him from afar, but for many years afterwards, she never took the initiative to see him once.
Even though the current Taifu Mansion was the original villa, and even though the distance from the General's Mansion to see Pei Che had never changed.
But she didn't dare knock on that door again.
Now, Pei Che told her that he had never left her in the past ten years, so how could she feel burdened?
She would only regard his protection as scattered pearls, as a surprise that was lost and found again, stringing them together again and giving them to her former self.
Jiang Shiyuan, the letter you were waiting for has already been delivered to you, but you just didn't notice it.
Therefore, she would try to find those past events little by little, even if it was just a glance or a passing by.
