Pei Zhi knew that the time was almost here, and he wanted to take it slow for the little girl, but the days were passing day by day, and in a month or two, he would go to Luoyang.
If this matter is not settled now, it will be really troublesome when I go to Luoyang in the future.
He was tending to the pear tree in his yard. It was the end of the Chinese New Year. Jiang Pear hadn't come over in the past few days, but the little pear tree had sprouted some buds.
He looked at it carefully and gently touched the green leaves he had just pulled out.
In fact, he couldn't tell when he fell in love with Jiang Li. He obviously raised her as his sister at the beginning——
Qiantan didn't know what happened. She only knew that the last time, after coming out of Hanshuiyuan, the young lady had been unwilling to go out and locked herself in her room all day long.
She thought it was another quarrel between the young lady and the third young master, so she was careful not to mention it, for fear of making the young lady sad.
Mu Bai looked like he didn't worry about anything and just did whatever he had to do all day long.
——
Jiang Li stayed in the room for a few days, thinking about what her third brother said.
Could it be that he really had special thoughts about his third brother, but he just didn't realize it.
In fact, from another perspective, it is good to stay with the third brother. At least you know what kind of person the third brother is, and you also know that he will definitely be good to you in the future.
In terms of character, Jiang Li has always been trustworthy.
If she really marries to another family in the future, she will never be as comfortable with her third brother.
Jiang Li seemed to suddenly come back to her senses and realized that she had just thought about these things and her cheeks were getting hot.
Now, I am so shameless.
Mu Bai saw Jiang Li in the room outside the window, her eyes darkened a bit, and she turned to leave.
Father, like son.
At this moment, the young lady's eyes and heart are obviously filled with the Third Young Master, it just depends on when the young lady will realize it.
In this life, he is afraid that he will never have a chance again——
Jiang Li had been staying in the room and couldn't think clearly about this matter.
Hua Yue somehow knew that she was in a bad mood and came to look for her. Jiang Li had been bored in the room and thought it would be a good idea to meet her cousin, so she met her.
As soon as Hua Yue came in, the atmosphere in the courtyard was a little different.
Originally deserted, it seemed to suddenly become lively.
"Xiao Lihua, why are you always bored in the house these days? Don't bore yourself to death."
Jiang Li shook her head: "Cousin, I don't want to go out. It's good to stay in the room."
Hua Yue hugged her over: "Young people should go out more often. What's the good of staying in the room?"
"Xiao Lihua, this doesn't look like you anymore."
Her little pear blossom is the most lively.
Jiang Li sighed. She had not thought clearly about what her third brother said, so she had no intention of going out to play.
"Cousin, what does it feel like to be in love?"
Hua Yue got excited when she said this: "Little Lihua, I like it. It is a very mysterious thing."
"You can't tell what it is, you can't grasp it, you can't touch it, but as soon as you see that person, you feel particularly at ease..."
Extra peace of mind——
Jiang Li frowned. When she was with her third brother, she felt particularly at ease. It seemed that as long as he was by her side, she had nothing to fear.
Hua Yue continued: "You will always be thinking about his safety. You just want to see him smile and hope that he is happy."
There was some confusion in Jiang Li's eyes.
"Cousin, I treat many people like this."
No matter which brother he is, he is always in his heart.
Hua Yue looked at her: "When you see him with the woman next to him, you will feel jealous and uncomfortable. A few words from him can affect your emotions."
After Jiang Li heard this, a bold idea suddenly came to his mind.
Therefore, the reason why I was so distressed before was because I was jealous.
Hua Yue looked at her like this, with a bit of curiosity in her eyes: "Xiao Lihua, do you have someone you like?"
Jiang Li was suddenly asked this question, and the figure that instantly appeared in her mind was Pei Zhi.
She was shocked again, picked up the tea on the table, pressed it, and said prevaricating: "Cousin, I stay in the house every day, how can I do that?"
Hua Yue nodded when he heard this, without thinking: "That's true."
Seeing her lack of interest, Hua Yue asked tentatively: "Is it because of Pei Zhi?"
Jiang Li was holding tea in her hand, but when she heard this, she almost spit out the tea in her mouth.
A pair of round almond eyes: "Cousin, you..."
I have never revealed it in front of outsiders, and my third brother certainly has not, so how could my cousin know...
Seeing her reaction, Hua Yue immediately felt that she had guessed it right and slapped her chest: "I knew it was because of him!"
No wonder Yuan Jing specifically said these words in front of him today and secretly asked him to come to Jiang Mansion. He really thought he didn't understand!
The tips of Jiang Li's ears turned red, as if her little thoughts had been exposed.
When she was about to say something, Hua Yue spoke again, with a hint of comfort in her tone: "I also think Pei Zhi's move was inappropriate."
Jiang Li became more and more afraid to look at the person in front of her: "Cousin, do you know everything?"
Hua Yue said in a disapproving tone: "Who doesn't know now that he has not yet married a wife, but he actually wants to take concubines into his room, that's it, if he takes one, he will get two."
"To be honest, I didn't realize he was such a person before."
When Hua Yue said this, he looked heartbroken.
Jiang Li:? ? ?
What is my cousin talking about?
Seeing Jiang Li's confused eyes, Hua Yue scratched his head and asked doubtfully: "Why, am I wrong?"
Jiang Li hurriedly waved her hand and nodded: "No, no, no, my cousin is right."
Just now, she thought that her cousin had made everything clear between her and her third brother.
She said that her cousin had always been single-minded in love, and Yuan Jing had put in a lot of effort to be with her before.
How could he be so sensitive now about his own affairs with his third brother?
Hua Yue spoke again: "Xiao Lihua, but these things are not our business."
"Pei Zhi wants two concubines, that's his own business."
It's just that these words don't sound good after all.
Only then did Jiang Li focus on her words: "Cousin, have you misunderstood? The third brother did not take any concubines."
"It's just that some time ago, my grandmother found some girls and wanted to show them to my third brother."
When Hua Yue heard this, she stared at her with some confusion: "Xiao Lihua, don't you know?"
"Yuan Jingdu told me that Pei Zhi means to keep the two girls as concubines and take them to Luoyang in the future."
"Now the girl is almost finalized."
It is good to say that it is powerful to take it seriously. These girls with innocent family backgrounds are rushing to send them up.
If it were before, how could such a situation happen?
When Jiang Li heard this, she suddenly stood up, as if her heart was being grasped by a pair of big hands.
What does it mean?
Didn't the third brother promise himself to give himself some time to think about it before? Could it be that he couldn't even wait for a while?
Even my cousin knew about it, but I didn't have any news about this. Maybe I was hiding it from myself.
Thinking of this, Jiang Li's palms tightened again. When she thought that her third brother would become someone else's husband in the future, she seemed like she could no longer care so much.
The thoughts in my mind finally emerged.
She suddenly understood that her feelings for her third brother were indeed impure.
Although they may not necessarily reach the level that the third brother thinks of him, they are still somewhat inseparable.
I feel that Third Brother is a very good person in this world. How could those people be worthy of Third Brother?
Her eyes gradually showed a bit of determination, "Cousin, please wait here for me. I have some things to do."
Seeing her serious look, Hua Yue originally wanted to save a word or two, but he kept it in his throat and said nothing more.
Jiang Li held up the hem of her skirt and ran towards Hanshui Courtyard without caring about Hua Yue behind her.
