The courtyard between the two of them was very close, but Pei Zhi still sent him all the way to the entrance of the courtyard and left only when he saw the little girl entering.
Jiang Li returned to her yard and locked herself in the room. She looked at Pei Zhi walking away with a bamboo umbrella and held her face in her hands.
Her face was terribly hot, and she wanted to use the back of her hands to cool herself down, but her hands seemed to be contaminated with Pei Zhi's smell, with a smell of cold snow, and Jiang Li's face couldn't help but turn redder.
In fact, she herself didn't expect that she would actually be with her third brother like this——
It was clear that there was still quarrel between the two people in the morning.
…
Qiantan and others didn't know what happened. They only knew that after the young lady went to Hanshuiyuan this time, she came back with a radiant face, which completely eliminated the lack of energy from the previous few days.
Qian Tan said to others with seriousness: "Mu Bai, if I guessed correctly, the young lady must have reconciled with the third young master."
Mu Bai just held the sword in his arms, said nothing, and lowered his eyes.
The Third Young Master happened to be by the young lady’s side during this period, and presumably nothing as dangerous as last time would happen. It just so happened that the matters on his side were not over yet...
It's time for some things to be explained.
——
On the second day, Yuan Jing went straight to Hanshuiyuan with a proud look on his face, but failed.
He put away the fan in his hand. If Pei Zhi didn't stay in his courtyard study, where else could he go?
There was something wrong with Shen Zhao's face, as if he was hesitant to speak.
Yuan Jing tapped his fan on his head: "If you have anything to say, just tell me, Mr. Pei."
The master is a dull gourd, and the person accompanying him is also a dull gourd.
Shen Zhao looked complicated and pointed toward the kitchen.
Yuan Jing didn't react when he saw his gesture: "Why are you pointing to the kitchen? I ask where your master is?"
Shen Zhao's voice sounded a little helpless: "Master Yuanjing, the master is in the kitchen now."
Yuan Jing almost dropped the folding fan in his hand: "What, you mean A Zhi is in the kitchen now?"
——
At this time, the smell of sweet pastries came from the kitchen.
The servants in the kitchen have long since disappeared, and it looks very empty.
As soon as Yuan Jing walked to the door, he felt the fragrance wafting out and swallowed subconsciously.
After pushing the door open, he saw Pei Zhi inside.
Pei Zhi was wearing a green cloak today, which was very different from his usual style. At the moment, he was squatting in the kitchen, carefully cooking something in the pot.
Yuan Jing came in waving his fan and joked: "It seems that my trick yesterday was very good."
Pei Zhi ignored him and just looked at the contents of the steamer. There was some flour on his dark sleeves.
It is very different from his usual image.
Seeing that he ignored her, Yuan Jing said angrily: "Well, Pei Zhi, my brother has done so much, but you didn't express anything, not even a word of thanks."
When Pei Zhi heard this, he seemed a little annoyed by him and said, "Well, thank you."
Yuan Jing walked around to him, "How insincere!"
"Speaking of which, I, as a brother, seem to have never eaten anything you cook."
After saying this, he wanted to reach out and take it, but Pei Zhi slapped his hand away: "Don't touch it."
"Okay, okay, you value sex over friends, Ah Zhi, I have seen through you today."
Pei Zhi didn't refute. Thinking of the little girl's cute and innocent appearance yesterday, he felt sweet in his heart.
Yuan Jing looked at Pei Zhi's appearance and said with a bit of carelessness: "Didn't you say before that a gentleman is far away from the kitchen? Why do you take the initiative now -"
When he was staying in Washington at that time, he always wanted to make some food for Hua Yue. Pei Zhi knew these things and couldn't help but make a few sarcastic comments every time.
When Pei Zhi heard this, he looked calm. Hold things in your hands farther away.
Yuan Jing jumped up and angrily retracted his hand that was about to get close to the pastry: "You are just trying to guard against me!"
When did Ah Zhi become so stingy!
Pei Zhi looked at what he had done and felt satisfied.
The little girl likes to eat these things. If she sees them, she will like them.
Seeing that he ignored her, Yuan Jing raised his hand in front of him: "Azhi, I'm talking to you."
Only then did Pei Zhi turn his gaze to him: "What did you just tell me?"
Yuan Jing felt suffocated in his heart.
Pei Zhi picked up the thing in his hand and said, "If you want to eat something, just ask the people in the yard."
The implication is that Yuan Jing doesn't have a bite of what's inside.
After Pei Zhi said this, he no longer cared about Yuan Jing, who was jumping up and down in anger. He carried it carefully and headed towards Wanliyuan.
It's best to eat this thing while it's hot.
Yuan Jing looked at Pei Zhi walking away and sighed in relief.
His brother can now be regarded as getting what he wanted.
Before, I really thought that Pei Zhi might really be lonely all his life. After all, no girl could bear his temperament.
Now it seems that I have thought too much in this aspect——
Pei Zhi walked quickly towards Wanliyuan. Qiantan had just come out of the house and was a little surprised when he saw him: "Third Young Master, why are you here so early?"
Pei Zhi held the thing in his hand and subconsciously wanted to hide it, but the expression on his face did not change: "Where is your lady?"
"The lady hasn't gotten up yet—"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Li's bedroom door was pushed open.
Jiang Li stood at the door of the house, her hair was messy, and she was only wearing pajamas. She just stood at the door and looked at Pei Zhi. Looks extraordinarily pretty.
Qiantan:? ? ?
It was clear that when he came out just now, the lady was still asleep.
——
Jiang Li cleaned herself up and looked at herself in the mirror. She looked particularly cute and charming. She applied a thin layer of pearl powder and put on her new lipstick.
When the third brother came over today, he was wearing an emerald green cloak. She turned her emerald green cloak inside out, and after putting it on, she became even more bright and beautiful.
Just when he was about to step out of the room, he sat down on the pear blossom stool again.
She was troubled.
Wouldn't it look too formal for me to do this? I just agreed yesterday that I would try it with my third brother.
Qiantan's urging came from outside the door. Only then did Jiang Li react, no longer caring so much, and walked over with her skirt in hand.
Pei Zhi put down the tea cup in his hand and saw his little girl coming over.
Jiang Li's steps were bright and moving. She was the pearl he held in his hands when he grew up, and now it is even more dazzling.
"Good morning, third brother."
Jiang Li sat next to him and smiled sweetly. Pei rolled his Adam's apple and opened the pastry box, which contained jujube pastries.
He took it out and placed it in front of Jiang Li: "Try it."
Jiang Li carefully picked up a piece and took a bite.
It tasted like she had never tasted before, sweet and sour, with the fragrance of dates.
She looked at Pei Zhi with surprise in her eyes: "Did the third brother do this himself?"
Pei Zhi nodded: "Do you like it?"
"like!"
As Jiang Li said this, she stuffed the cake in her hand into her mouth, but she choked. She hurriedly picked up the tea on the table and took a sip.
Pei Zhi patted her back gently.
When she saw Pei Zhi's half-smiling eyes, she realized that what she had just drank was the water that her third brother had drunk. The tips of her ears could not help but turn red quietly, but her face pretended to be calm.
Pei Zhi knew that the little girl had a low reputation, so he said with a bit of joking: "The pastry I made is too big, please make it smaller next time."
Jiang Li lowered his head, wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, and muttered, "It's good that Third Brother knows."
Help, why does she always make a fool of herself in front of her third brother!
