Mrs. Qi's lips moved, her face turned green and white. She couldn't believe that the calmness and momentum exuding from this little girl were very similar to Pei Yanzhou.
In the end, the old lady spoke and scolded.
"Okay, you are also the mother-in-law of a house. How unbecoming is it to make such a scene? Jinyin girl, please get up and wait in the prince's courtyard from now on."
"Yes, I thank you, madam, for your forgiveness."
Maybe it was the punishment of kneeling last night and today that made her feel cold. When Song Jinyin spoke, her voice became hoarse each time.
She retreated behind Pei Yanzhou again, as if nothing happened just now, she lowered her head quietly and listened to the old lady's greetings.
Once these words were mentioned to Pei Yanzhou, the room became more lively.
"Yan Zhou has more and more errands to do now. Those who serve around him, especially those who follow him outside, should carefully pick them up before bringing them up."
"No."
Mrs. Liu took the old lady's words and said with a smile.
"Our Duke has also said that from now on, the entire Duke's palace will be supported by the Crown Prince, and the Crown Prince's affairs should be the first priority."
The old lady nodded after hearing this.
At this age, what she values most in her heart is the Duke's Mansion and her grandson, Pei Yanzhou, and there is no room for any mistakes.
But when her eyes reflected Song Jinyin's pale face, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
"Ms. Liu is right, the boss is somewhat sober now."
"Yes, mother, the Duke of Guo has been pushing forward many invitations from his colleagues, and is focusing on our Duke's residence."
Perhaps he was too lazy to listen to this. Just as the people below were about to speak in agreement, a cold and hard voice came over, interrupting the coming and going in the room.
"My grandson has been sitting here for a long time. I wonder if my grandma is in a hurry to call her over. Is there something wrong?"
Pei Yanzhou concealed his impatience, straightened his sleeves unhurriedly, and looked at the old lady with a softer look on his face.
There was a laziness and casualness in his knowing tone.
The old lady originally wanted to ask around in circles, but now looking at her grandson's appearance, she couldn't tell that he had lost his patience, so she opened her mouth without covering up any more.
"What do you think of what happened to the Ye family girl today?"
"How do you see it?"
Pei Yanzhou chuckled and said: "Squeamish and a child's nature, when his temper comes, he insists on taking it out on my maid."
Song Jinyin heard this man's words clearly.
Even though she already knew the answer in her heart, Song Jinyin still felt a little embarrassed when she heard him speak so softly and coquettishly, and even doted on Ye Wanqiu when he punished her.
She almost forgot that Pei Yanzhou liked girls who were a bit arrogant.
From the beginning, he showed his disgust at his own stubbornness.
Even if what happened back then had nothing to do with him, Pei Yanzhou would not use such a conniving tone towards her.
The fluctuation lasts only a moment.
Song Jinyin endured the pain in her knees and stood upright.
Seeing Pei Yanzhou's casual reply, the old lady had a vague suspicion in her heart, but she couldn't help but added with a smile: "Grandma is not asking about the character of the girl from the Ye family."
"What does grandma mean?"
After asking such a question, the old lady's heart felt like a bright mirror, and she completely stopped thinking.
Her grandson was already very thoughtful, but since his mother passed away, his temperament had become colder and colder, making it difficult for people to see what was in his heart.
But there is only one thing that no one needs to guess, that is what he wants, and he will never leave the initiative to others.
"That's all, I was in a hurry after all."
The old lady shook her head and glanced at Song Jinyin's half-downcast face.
The little girl's clothes were a little thin. Although her whole face could not be seen, the exposed side of her chin looked much thinner than last time.
After all, she was not ashamed of the bastard things her boss had done, so she was softer than others towards the mother and daughter Liu.
Especially since Mrs. Liu had promised that she would never be pregnant again in this life, her grudge gradually disappeared a lot.
Seeing this, she sighed again and said: "But having said that, your yard is too deserted. I look at this girl Jin Yin. She may be too busy alone. I will call two maids for you later." In the past, although you were not in a hurry to get married, the backyard was not always empty. Jin Yin is also a sensible person, so she can take care of the affairs between women for the time being. "
The eyes of the two ladies in the second and third bedrooms instantly fell on Song Jinyin again.
Speaking of which, the relationship between the two of them could not be put on the table. Even with the prostitution contract, others would feel that Song Jinyin was guilty of disregarding human ethics.
It's just that even the old lady avoids talking about it, and others don't dare to touch this bad luck.
Now I am thinking about sending a maid to the prince's courtyard, probably just to make this matter less conspicuous.
But Pei Yanzhou sneered when he heard this.
He slowly played with the jade pendant around his waist, seemed to think for a moment, and then suddenly called Song Jinyin's name.
A heart-chilling smile appeared on the corner of his merciless lips, and he tilted his head slightly: "Song Jinyin, grandma is afraid that you will be too busy, what do you think?"
Song Jinyin didn't hesitate this time, and walked directly to the front and knelt down. Her knees and the front of her calves seemed to be numb.
She knocked her forehead to the ground and made a muffled sound.
Pei Yanzhou was angry.
Although she didn't know what he was angry about, if she didn't follow his wishes at this moment, she would probably have to endure another day of punishment after returning to the yard today.
"I'm so busy here, I don't dare to be lazy."
"Jinyin, what are you..."
The old lady frowned slightly, wanting Madam Liu to help her up, but when she turned around, she saw that Madam Liu always looked calm and decent, as if the person kneeling below had nothing to do with her.
Yes.
When this girl was insulted just now, Ms. Liu didn't make any move.
Come to think of it, I really don't intend to stay in this relationship anymore.
"Grandma, you see, this girl is not as hardworking as you think."
The smile on Pei Yanzhou's lips was still there, but his eyes were already dark.
I don't know since when, Song Jinyin's stubborn high spirits gradually dissipated with the extinguished light in her eyes.
She was clearly beside him, within his reach, but she seemed to be moving away, thinking of leaving him and this cold mansion.
Pei Yanzhou felt panicked for a moment.
But more importantly, it was the coolness he forced on himself.
Why did Song Jinyin abandon him?
From the moment she helped the vain Liu family, from the moment she took her out of the house and prevented her from seeing her mother for the last time.
Ever since she went on a date with another man.
Song Jinyin, never think of leaving him.
Pei Yanzhou's voice became colder again.
"Don't mention this matter again in the future. It's enough to send such low-class bed-warming maids once. If there are too many, it will be difficult to explain when the imperial concubine enters the house in the future."
Song Jinyin still didn't understand why he came to Fuluyuan to discuss marriage and took her with him.
Right now, every word Pei Yanzhou said was hitting her.
In front of Ms. Liu, the scenes from that year were reopened bit by bit.
Song Jinyin suddenly realized that Pei Yanzhou was taking revenge.
Revenge for Madam Liu to step into his yard, revenge for having been thrust into his side like this.
After saying this, Pei Yanzhou stood up.
Because she was walking too hastily, Song Jinyin followed him a little unsteadily.
Outside the yard is the howling cold wind.
Pei Yanzhou was stunned for a moment, and finally did not step onto the corridor. Instead, he walked onto the path against the wind, blocking most of the coolness in front of him.
Song Jinyin followed him and finally took a moment to breathe.
But as soon as the two of them walked a short distance, they saw a man turning out from the side, wearing a dark blue robe, with a green and white jade hanging from his waist, with a smiling face, gentle and elegant.
When he saw Pei Yanzhou, he politely called "big brother".
It was Pei Jinzhi, the eldest son of the second wife.
