After Pei Zhi heard these words, his eyes subconsciously fell on Jiang Li, but he only saw Jiang Li lowering her head, as if all this had nothing to do with her.
Unable to suppress the nameless fire that rose inexplicably in his heart, he said in a cold voice: "If that's the case, then I'll stay and take a look."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone around was shocked.
The old lady was thinking at the beginning that maybe there would be someone Pei Zhi liked among them, but if not, there was no need to force it.
He had a temper that would not be disciplined, and the old lady just had the attitude of giving it a try, but she did not expect that she would agree so easily.
When Jiang Li heard this, she was a little caught off guard in her eyes.
How could the third brother really agree——
As soon as she raised her head, her eyes met with Pei Zhi's.
Pei Zhi raised his eyebrows and smiled: "So, what do you think of Ah Li?"
Jiang Li met his eyes and lowered her head very quickly.
Why did the third brother ask himself these things? Could it be that he already knew that it was him and his grandmother who gave the opinion!
When the old lady saw the two brothers and sisters like this, she just laughed and said, "Girl Li, of course you would like to have someone beside you who knows both coldness and warmth to take care of you."
When Pei Zhi heard what the old lady said, he shouted, but his eyes were still fixed on Jiang Li.
Jiang Li felt everyone's eyes looking here, fearing that some clues would be discovered, so she nodded hastily: "Yes, of course I am willing to see someone taking care of my third brother."
The old lady nodded with satisfaction after hearing this, while Pei Zhi looked unclear.
The old lady thought that it was time to reconcile the two young men who had a bit of a temper, so she took the initiative and said, "Speaking of this matter, it was Li Yatou's idea."
Nacheng thought, as soon as he said these words, the atmosphere froze.
Jiang Li had been praying silently in her heart, hoping that her grandmother would not tell this matter, but she did not expect that she would be told directly like this, and her name was specially mentioned.
She simply couldn't imagine how dark the face of the person in front of her looked.
After Pei Zhi heard this, his heart suddenly hurt.
It turns out that this is the case. In order to push herself away, Jiang Li actually thought of finding a concubine for herself. Who did she think she was? He was so angry that he said several good words in succession.
"Jiang Li, you are very kind."
Jiang Li felt that the person in front of her looked calm on the surface, but was actually extremely angry.
As soon as Pei Zhi said these words, Jiang Xi, no matter how slow his reaction was, felt something was wrong.
The little sister is obviously thinking about him and wants to find someone to take care of him. If she doesn't appreciate it, why is she still so cold to the little sister?
Jiang Li wanted to explain herself hurriedly, but she opened her mouth but couldn't say anything.
She could clearly see that Pei Zhi's eyes were full of rage.
Pei Zhi stopped looking at her and turned to look at the old lady: "Since it is Ah Li's heart, I can't live up to it as my brother."
"Please, Madam, please choose two that are eye-catching for me and send them to my yard."
After Shen Zhao heard his master say this, he was frightened.
The master was so angry that he acted out of anger. He had been with the master for so long and he had never seen him like this. This time he was really angry.
After Jiang Li heard this, her heart tightened and sour emotions arose.
But he could only stare blankly, not knowing what to say.
The atmosphere calmed down, and the old lady coughed and said tentatively: "Pei Zhi, if you don't like us making the decision for you, you can't joke about it."
Pei Zhi held his hand and said: "Old Madam, I am not joking about these. I also ask Old Madam to hold my eyes for me and choose two to go to my yard."
After hearing this, the old lady felt relieved and nodded: "Don't worry, the one I choose to serve you will definitely be good."
In fact, these things are not important. If Pei Zhi has a tense relationship with them because of this matter, it will be more gain than loss.
After hearing these words, Jiang Li clenched her hands subconsciously, and Pei Zhi stopped caring so much and resigned.
The old lady saw that something was wrong with the atmosphere of the New Year's Eve dinner, so she coughed and said hello: "What are you doing standing around? Eat quickly!"
Only then did everyone turn their attention back.
Jiang Xi asked cautiously next to Jiang Li: "Ah Li, what's wrong with you?"
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Pei Zhi was angry with Jiang Li just now.
Jiang Li didn't know what to say to him, so she could only shake her head.
After finally waiting until the New Year's Eve dinner, Jiang Li made an excuse to say that she was not feeling well and walked into her yard.
Qiantan had been following the young lady, and knowing that something was wrong with the young lady, she said, "Miss, what happened to the third young master? Otherwise, why don't the young lady take the initiative to ask?"
Jiang Li shook her head. Others didn't know what happened to her third brother, but she knew it very well in her heart.
As soon as I returned to the yard, I noticed something was wrong with the yard, as if it had been rearranged.
Jiang Li was confused, could it be that her third brother had been here?
Soon, this suspicion was broken. Mubai jumped down from the treetops nearby, holding a red lantern in her hand: "Miss, Happy New Year!"
Jiang Li hadn't seen him for a long time, and now she suddenly saw him, but she didn't react. "Mubai, where have you been during this time?"
I couldn't find it myself.
Mu Bai was a little embarrassed: "Miss, something happened to me, and I was in a hurry so I didn't have time to tell the lady."
Jiang Li shook her head: "It doesn't matter, you are free to come and go."
"It's just that if something happens next time, you'd better write me a letter afterwards, otherwise I'll always be thinking of you."
Mu Bai nodded when he heard this. The lady cared about him. When he heard these words, he felt very warm in his heart.
He handed the lantern in his hand to Jiang Li: "Miss, when I came back, I saw how beautiful this lantern was, so I bought it for the lady."
Jiang Li looked at Mu Bai in front of him with a shy smile, and reached out to take it: "Then I won't be polite."
A pair of almond-shaped eyes are curved, and the faint light from the lantern shines on the face, making it look particularly beautiful.
Shuang Ning, who happened to be passing by outside the yard, took this scene into consideration and raised a smile on her lips.
The master has been troubled by this matter recently, and he is worried that he can't find a breakthrough. Today, these things happened one after another...
After several people entered the room, Jiang Li asked: "Mubai, what have you been doing during this time?"
When Mu Bai heard this, he pursed his lips and thought. There were some things that he didn't know how to say yet.
Jiang Li reacted immediately when she saw his hesitant expression: "Mu Bai, I'm just asking casually. If you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me. Tell me when you want to tell me."
Seeing Jiang Li's sincere face, Mu Bai nodded.
After finishing speaking, Jiang Li lay down at the table again, thinking about what happened on New Year's Eve, feeling depressed.
The third brother seemed to be in an extremely angry state at that time. How could anything he said in that state be truly taken seriously?
If the third brother casually hangs out with other people because of such a thing, Jiang Li will only feel that it is irresponsible to everyone.
Thinking of this, Jiang Li stood up and prepared to go towards Hanshuiyuan.
But just like last time, courage came and went quickly. She just stood up and sat down again.
No, if I go there now, what identity will I use to go there? I originally proposed it to my grandmother, but now it happens again and again. What will the third brother think of me?
Moreover, the relationship between these two people was already awkwardly tight.
Mu Bai saw Jiang Li's hesitation and got an idea of what Qian Tan said.
He said solemnly: "Miss, instead of worrying here all the time, it is better to take the initiative and see what the third young master really thinks."
"If it is as the young lady thinks, then the third young master should indeed be persuaded. But if the third young master has such thoughts in the first place, the young lady is not worried for no reason."
"You can do whatever you want, that's how you behave like a lady."
After Jiang Li heard this, she raised her head and looked at him seriously: "Do you really think so? Do you also think I should go?"
Mu Bai said: "It's not that I think Miss should go, but that Miss wants to go."
Qian Tan also spoke at the side: "Yes, Miss, if you keep thinking about this matter, you probably won't be able to sleep well tonight."
Jiang Li was already conflicted, but after hearing what the two of them said, she became more determined.
No matter what, I still have to ask the third brother, at least I know what the third brother is thinking.
Moreover, there is a secret emotion in her heart.
On the one hand, she was thinking that she hoped that her third brother could be normal and not have such a relationship with her, so she took the initiative to find her grandmother to find a concubine for her third brother.
But on the other hand, she felt in her heart that the third brother was so wise and powerful, how could any girl be worthy of him?
When she thought that the third brother might have chosen two women at random to come to Hanshuiyuan, the annoyance in Jiang Li's heart became deeper and deeper.
Thinking of this, she suddenly snapped: "No, I want to go find my third brother, and I have to go now!"
