After this matter was resolved, Jiang Li felt much refreshed. Seeing that she was happy, Pei Zhi also took her to the market twice.
Just once, I saw Song Luoling.
When he saw the two of them, his face was full of joy and he stopped the carriage on purpose, his tone already tinged with condescension.
"Mr. Rongan County, long time no see."
Jiang Li didn't want to talk to her anymore, but Song Luolin became even more proud. He wanted to embarrass Jiang Li, but the maid next to him persuaded her: "Miss, Mr. Ji told me to keep a low profile recently."
Song Luoling thought of this and ridiculed Jiang Li before leaving.
Jiang Li felt that the more like this, the better, which meant that Song Luoling really didn't notice anything was wrong.
Ji Qinsheng indeed has some great skills in this aspect.
When I returned to Jiang's house, I felt that the atmosphere today was a little different.
Jiang Li felt strange that as soon as she came back, she was called to Jing'an Hall by the old lady.
There were many things placed in Jing'an Hall, and Jiang Li felt confused.
The old lady sighed: "The mother of the head of the Li family in Luoyang is here today."
"Li family?"
Jiang Li had some impression of this. He was one of the four major aristocratic families in Luoyang, with a small population, his daughter was lost early, and his son was stupid.
The Jiang family and the Li family have nothing to do with each other, so what are they doing here?
Jiang Li asked.
The old lady sighed: "Girl Li, they said they want to marry you and become the wife of the Li family."
Jiang Li didn't react. She had seen the young master of the Li family, but he was a fool. She had never interacted with them, so how could she choose her as her daughter-in-law.
It really puzzled her.
"Grandma, how could this happen?"
Jiang Li's tone was unpredictable: "Grandma, as far as I know, there is something abnormal about the young master of the Li family."
The Li family took the initiative to come to the door. The old lady knew this, so she was so worried.
If it is normal, according to this family background, it is also worthy of Li Yatou.
But there is such a fool over there, no wonder, the Li family's mistress will come to the door in person, because Dading is careful that their family is difficult to refuse.
Jiang Zhen in Jiangzhou is still hanging around in the officialdom. If he offends the Li family——
The old lady looked gloomy and felt bitter in her heart, then she said, "Today, the Li family's mother came to visit, and she brought someone with her. She is Jiang Xue. I heard that she is the young lady that the Li family has been looking for for so many years."
It's really a bad fate.
After Jiang Li heard this, she reacted instantly.
It turns out that the eldest lady of the Li family is Jiang Xue. No wonder the Li family asked her to marry her by name.
The old lady held her granddaughter in her arms and said, "Girl Li, no matter what happens, grandma will not let you get married."
Jiang Xue was Li Qingxue, and she asked Jiang Li to marry her, so she must have wanted to learn from each other.
If Li Yatou really entered the Li family, there would be no way for her to survive.
——
Naturally, Pei Zhi also heard about this. People in Hanshui Academy who knew about his affair with Jiang Li did not dare to speak out for fear of getting into trouble.
Early the next morning.
In the Jing'an Hall, the old lady sat in the main seat and Pei Zhi sat in the right seat.
The young man dressed in black is tall and tall, and has an unruly aura.
Playing with the cup with one hand, he said straight to the point: "Old madam, the Li family is coming. The Jiang family can't protect Jiang Li, but I can."
The old lady picked up the teacup in front of her and took a sip, her fingers tightening slightly.
A glint flashed in the old man's eyes: "Pei Zhi, why should I trust you?"
Pei Zhi came to see him early this morning, which surprised her a little. However, even if Pei Zhi did not come to him today, he would still call him over.
He sat in his seat, with a bit of fun in his expression, and said with a smile: "If the old lady had other options, she wouldn't have asked me to come over."
Pei Zhi was also angry when he heard that the Li family came to his door yesterday.
What kind of thing dares to covet the little girl he raised.
When the old lady heard him talking like this, she felt that a junior said these words directly, and she felt a little uncomfortable on her face.
"Pei Zhi, do you think that our Jiang family has to be you?"
Pei Zhi snorted coldly when he heard this. Now the Jiang family has no choice but to take care of themselves.
However, although Pei Zhi is arrogant, he does have some real abilities.
Especially the lot she solved before made her feel a little more determined.
"Can you find a way to resolve what happened yesterday?"
Pei Zhi originally wanted to talk about this: "Of course there is, but the old lady has to promise me something."
"Whatever it is, you tell me, as long as my Jiang family can give it, you can take it."
Nothing is as important as my own pear girl!
Pei Zhi smiled when he heard this: "Old madam, the way is to ask Ah Li to marry me."
"What!"
"Pei Zhi, you are brother and sister!"
The old lady was shocked when she heard this, and the people around her were also keenly aware that something was wrong, and they were all led out by the grandmother beside the old lady.
"Old madam, Ah Li and I have been together for some time."
"After all, Ah Li wants to marry someone, so if that's the case, why can't that person be me."
"There is no blood connection between me and her."
The old lady's mind was in chaos, and many things from the past came to mind.
My heart finally reacted.
Yes, Li Yatou and Pei Zhi seem to be too close to each other in many things.
It's just that I have never thought about this before.
She sat down and Pei Zhi saved his majesty's life. Now that the Holy Family is strong and Pei Zhi is a man of means, if he is really willing to become the backing of the Jiang family, it will only be good for their family.
And he is indeed kind to Li Yatou.
Now, it seems there is no other way——
The old lady said: "If I entrust Jiang Li to you, you can really ensure that she is safe."
"Old Madam, just believe me."
The old lady finally made a concession: "Now that the words have come to this, I have one more request, that is, if this request cannot be agreed, the previous talks will have to be abandoned."
Pei Zhi raised his eyebrows when he heard this and said with narrow eyes: "If you have any requests, the old lady can just say it."
"Please also protect my Jiang family no matter what situation we are in in the future."
The eldest grandson is an honest person and will not develop in this direction in the future. Jiang Xi is also too impetuous. A Zhen alone cannot protect the family business.
Pei Zhi straightened his expression, stood up and handed over his hands: "Don't worry, old lady, as long as this junior is still here, he will definitely protect the Jiang family."
Even if the old lady doesn't say this, she will do it herself.
The old lady clearly felt that the weight of what he said was different, and he called himself a junior, so she relaxed her brows.
He said three words in a row: "Ah Li is lucky to meet you."
Pei Zhi chuckled: "It's also my luck."
I also remembered that when I went out with myself yesterday, the little girl specially learned a pear blossom makeup. When I asked myself if it looked good, the playful and cute appearance came to mind again.
To him, the little girl is a family member, someone he must protect even if he is injured.
The corners of Pei Zhi's eyes raised slightly. The little girl is from the Jiang family. If the Jiang family is willing to use her for his own use, it will only be good for both parties.
The old lady sighed deeply.
I am getting older, and I am beginning to feel incompetent in many things.
At least Pei Zhi stayed with Li Yatou and could protect her.
