Pei Zhi stayed in the yard, looking at the pear tree Jiang Li planted in his yard. Jiang Li didn't know what he was busy with recently, and he didn't even come to his own yard.
Even the pear tree planted by two people has not been watered recently.
Shen Zhao came in and saw his master staring at the little pear tree in a daze by the window.
This is the second time today that the master has been in a daze. Is the master thinking about the eldest lady?
The eldest lady came very diligently before, but I don’t know what happened in the past few days.
Thinking of this, Shenzhao tentatively said, "Master? Do you want to go to me to find the eldest lady?"
Pei Zhi turned around when he heard Shen Zhao's voice, his expression a little cold. Shen Zhao stayed beside Pei Zhi and knew what kind of temper his master was. Seeing his master's appearance, he knew that his master was feeling uncomfortable.
He also realized that what he just said was wrong and said, "I know I was wrong."
He should not presume to guess his master's thoughts.
Pei Zhi raised his eyebrows and looked at him, "Do you think I'm thinking about Jiang Li?"
Randomly continued his own words: "What a joke." How could he miss the ginger pear? It's just the pear tree outside, which is annoying for no reason.
Shen Zhao lowered his head and didn't speak. His master's thoughts were on his face. If he couldn't tell it anymore, wouldn't it be that he had been with his master for so many years in vain?
Pei Zhi didn't pursue it and snorted.
If Jiang Li doesn't want to come, then don't come, and she doesn't feel anything wrong.
Shen Zhao bowed his hands and stepped back: "Then I'll go down first."
When Pei Zhi saw him preparing to leave, he seemed to have something to say in his throat and hesitated to speak.
When Shen Zhao was about to step out, he still stopped him.
"Go to Wanliyuan and tell her. If she doesn't come back, I'm afraid her plant will dry up and die."
He twirled his fingertips, and the little girl's smile appeared in front of his eyes again. If the little pear tree really dries up and dies, Jiang Li shouldn’t come crying to him then.
"yes."
Seeing Shen Zhao walking towards Wanliyuan, Pei Zhi felt more comfortable.
After a while, Shen Zhao came back to life.
Pei Zhi saw that there was nothing behind him, and his face couldn't help but darken again and again.
Shen Zhao almost didn't dare to look at his master's expression: "The eldest lady said that she doesn't have time to come over for the time being. Could you please master to take care of her first?"
Shen Zhao didn't expect that the master would take the initiative to give in, but the eldest lady still refused. Could it be that she was really angry with her master for what happened last time.
The master finally brought someone with him, and his whole person was a little more smoky than before. Naturally, he didn't want the relationship between the two to become tense.
"Master, the eldest lady is still young, and some tempers are normal. If Master doesn't put down his dignity, go and apologize to the eldest lady."
"You want me to apologize to her?"
Pei Zhi felt a little funny when he heard this.
In that situation, even if he said he wanted to save her, the man would not let her go. Instead, he felt that Jiang Li was important in his heart and threatened him with her.
In this case, it will be even more disadvantageous.
Shen Zhao didn't dare to speak any more. The master had always been this way, and no one could persuade him to change it. The eldest lady was still angry, so it seemed she could only wait for time to pass.
Pei Zhi only felt depressed. Since Jiang Li didn't want to lie to him, then he shouldn't come.
It's just that his face has always been terribly dark.
On the other side, Wanliyuan.
Jiang Li prepared happily. The birthday gift she wanted to prepare for her third brother was naturally the best.
When the third brother sees this, he will definitely be moved, and the small conflicts between the two people before will probably disappear.
Qian Tan stood aside and said, "Miss, I just came here to look for you based on the omen. Is it because the Third Young Master wants you to come over?"
Jiang Li shook her head: "Third brother wouldn't take the initiative to come to me. It's probably because Shen Zhao feels that the relationship between me and third brother is a bit subtle."
He also said that he was asked to water the little pear tree. The third brother would never say such a thing.
She didn't care so much. Even though she and her third brother were unhappy now, these conflicts would disappear after his birthday, so she didn't worry too much.
Qiantan nodded after hearing what his young lady said. In short, it is always right to listen to the young lady!
Jiang Xue's side.
She heard from her servants that the relationship between Jiang Li and Pei Zhi seemed to have become quite cold these days.
She also secretly inquired about it and knew what it was about. She also heard that Shen Zhao went to Wanliyuan specifically today, and Jiang Li had no intention of going to Hanshuiyuan.
Presumably as long as I stir up trouble in this, the relationship between the two people will be completely dead.
In the past, when Jiang Li tried to please Pei Zhi, she felt disdainful at that time, but later on, she clearly felt that Pei Zhi had indeed helped Jiang Li in some matters.
If the relationship between the two of them is not good, it is indeed a good thing for him.
Thinking of this, she tidied up and went to Pei Zhi's yard.
She is the best at sowing discord.
Shen Zhao stood outside, saw her coming, and said defensively: "Why is the second lady here?"
The second young lady is different from the eldest lady. She is very shady in many things. In the past, she always used her status to bully her master.
"I just came over to see my brother. Why, now that I have become a commoner, can you, a servant, control me?"
Shen Zhao knew that he was living under someone else's roof, but he didn't want to let this woman in.
The master has been in a bad mood these past few days.
"Second Miss, the master is a little inconvenient now."
"He and I are brother and sister, so there is nothing inconvenient. If something happens, I, as the younger sister, can take care of it in advance."
Jiang Xuepi smiled and spoke.
Shen Zhao was about to say something when he heard Pei Zhi's voice coming from the back room.
"Let her in."
Jiang Xue raised her chin slightly when she heard this, and then walked in swaggeringly.
"Third brother, I heard that last time, my sister was held hostage, and third brother did not choose to save her."
"This is what's wrong with the third brother. No one in the house can see how good my sister is to you. The third brother is so unkind and unrighteous. It's no wonder that my sister dislikes you."
Jiang Xue covered her lips and smiled. Jiang Li had been protecting Pei Zhi before, but now she was no longer by his side.
Pei Zhi could tell that she was deliberately provoking, but he still felt a little uncomfortable.
It is true that Jiang Li has never been to her yard because of the incident last time. This afternoon, she specifically asked Shen Zhao to call him, but she also found a reason to reject him.
He remained calm on the surface, but he curled his fingers a little: "It's not your turn to comment on the relationship between Jiang Li and me."
He chuckled and said: "Second Miss, there is something important that you have to tell me in front of me, or you just came here to tell me this."
