Jiang Li looked at Pei Zhi's face and walked out. As soon as she opened the door, the wind blew on her face.
She narrowed her eyes: "Bold, who gave you the courage to speak like this to the third brother!"
When the boy heard the sound and saw Jiang Li again, he hurriedly knelt down.
"This servant didn't know that the eldest lady was here and disturbed the eldest lady."
Jiang Li pretended to speak, showing a bit of momentum: "I'm fine if you hit me, but who gave you the courage to talk to Third Brother like this?"
"Miss, I——"
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Jiang Li: "As the third brother's servant, you failed to fulfill your obligations. You really deserve to be punished."
When the boy heard this, he felt aggrieved and afraid.
He had heard that the eldest lady had a good attitude towards the third young master, but he thought it was a rumor and didn't take it to heart.
The current appearance is probably true.
Jiang Li then spoke: "You are so disrespectful to the master, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep you in this house."
Hearing this, the boy quickly knelt down and kowtowed.
"This slave deserves to die. This slave will never dare to do it again. Please, Miss, please don't drive me out of the house."
He has parents, wife and children to support at home, and they all rely on his job. What should he do if something goes wrong?
Moreover, if other mansions knew that he was kicked out by Jiang Mansion, they would probably not let him serve him anymore.
Jiang Li felt a little soft after hearing this, and raised her eyes to look in the direction of Pei Zhi's study.
The window was opened by Pei Zhi at some point, looking at the two of them with a pair of smiling eyes.
Jiang Li shuddered when she saw this look.
Pei Zhi wanted to see how he would deal with this person.
He is forcing himself——
If he followed Pei Zhi's wishes, he would naturally give the young man a good punishment and then drive him out of the house.
However, she couldn't do such a thing.
They, the masters, have not taken the lead. How can the fault be all blamed on them? This is too unfair.
She coughed and tried her best to ignore the sight behind her: "No matter what, you bumped into the third brother after all. You can get twenty pieces of bread yourself and two months' salary as a fine."
"Remember, if anyone dares to attack Third Brother in the future, they will be at odds with me, Jiang Li."
He also had to teach him a lesson and let everyone know that he could not bully the third brother.
The young man burst into tears when he heard this. As long as he was not kicked out of the house, these things were acceptable to him!
"Yes, I have taken note of it. Thank you, miss. Thank you, miss."
Jiang Li sighed: "Okay, if I find someone doing this to Third Brother again in the future, I will never forgive him."
After the boy took the order and left, Jiang Li turned around angrily: "Third brother, I have already punished him for you."
Pei Zhi twirled his fingertips and curved the corners of his lips slightly.
Jiang Li is really a little different from others.
Seeing his smile, Jiang Li didn't dare to step forward. She didn't punish the boy. Could Pei Zhi be angry with him?
He was uncertain. Although he was reborn and returned, Pei Zhi's inner thoughts were really uncertain.
At this time, a man in black clothes had a sword on his waist, his ponytail was tied high, and there was no other color on his body.
He came from the aisle carrying a soup cup. After a quick glance, he realized what he was doing and said, "Miss, please go in first, the master is not angry with you."
Jiang Li realized that the person in front of her was a sign.
In his previous life, he was always with Pei Zhi.
He can be said to be loyal to Pei Zhi. Since he said so, Pei Zhi must not be angry with him.
"Thank you."
After Jiang Li said this, she took the soup cup from his hand and walked quickly inside.
Shen Zhao looked at the figure entering. If the eldest lady was sincere to her master, he, a servant, would only feel relieved.
Master, life in Jiang Mansion has been really hard these past few years.
——
Jiang Li smiled a little flatteringly and put down the soup cup: "Third brother, drink it while it's hot."
Pei Zhi just looked at her without saying anything, and gently flipped through the book in his hand.
Jiang Li pinched her handkerchief and coughed twice to lighten the atmosphere.
"Third brother, what do you think of me handling this?"
She wasn't pretending, she had just gone out to get some cold wind, and she was indeed feeling a little uncomfortable at the moment.
Hearing this, Pei Zhi looked at her with pale eyes, but it was precisely this calmness that made people feel frightened.
She curled her lips and said, "Is this how A-Li loves me?"
It was obviously very cold, but she was sweating a little.
"Third brother, we can't blame them completely for this matter. They are indeed at fault, but it is also us who are the masters who failed to restrain themselves."
"I am punishing him like this to let everyone know what will happen if you dare to bully Third Brother! Please rest assured, Third Brother, this situation will definitely not happen again in the future."
Jiang Li secretly looked at Pei Zhi, but she still pretended to be nothing.
After a while, Pei Zhi chuckled: "Ah Li handled it very well."
Jiang Li couldn't tell whether Pei Zhi was really praising him or mocking him.
"Then third brother, please rest early. I feel a little uncomfortable, so I will go back first."
Pei Zhi nodded, and Jiang Li left.
Jiang Li looked a little embarrassed. She couldn't tell Pei Zhi's attitude towards her at all, and she didn't know whether the things she did had slightly changed Pei Zhi's view of herself.
I can only comfort myself that it didn't happen overnight, and I feel relieved in my heart.
After returning to the yard, it was really cold.
He said that his health was not good and his vitality was damaged, and now he stayed outside for too long, causing cold air to enter his body.
I heard that the old lady was so anxious that she called in several doctors, but to no avail.
The fever persisted.
When Pei Zhi heard these things, he sneered slightly.
No wonder Jiang Li didn't come to see him during this time. It turned out that he was really sick.
He remembered that the last time Jiang Li came to see him, he had a thick layer of pearl powder on his face, and he really thought he couldn't tell.
Tsk, so stupid.
He picked up the book in his hand and wanted to continue reading from where he was, but he felt a little irritated in his heart for no reason.
There are indeed quacks in this mansion. It took so long to treat even a small cold, but it was really useless.
Seemingly thinking of something, Pei Zhi threw the medicine bottle on his table over.
"Shen Zhao, give this medicine to her."
Shen Zhao took it and obviously paused. This was something Master Yuan Jing specially left for his master for emergencies.
Master Yuanjing's things were probably worth thousands of gold to ordinary people, but they were hard to come by, but the master gave them to Jiang Li like this.
Is the master obsessed with the eldest lady?
Pei Zhi's hand while turning the book paused, and when he realized that the person hadn't left yet, he narrowed his eyelids and said, "What?"
Shen Zhao put away his thoughts and handed over his hand: "Master, don't worry, my subordinates will take good care of the eldest lady."
The master has his own reasons for doing this, as long as he fulfills the master's instructions conscientiously.
Pei Zhi then continued to turn the pages, with the corners of his lips slightly raised.
Since you said you want to take care of yourself, you have to do it yourself and slowly learn it to be interesting.
