Chapter 201
When Pei Jing came to the front hall, he saw a middle-aged man in his thirties sitting in front of the hall. When he saw Pei Jing coming in, he quickly stood up and said with a smile, "Lieutenant Pei is back, can I see the invitation?"

Pei Jing laughed when he saw him, he was an acquaintance, this person was one of Cao Dacheng's entourage in Yunzhou government office, named Lu Hong, Cao Dacheng trusted and valued him very much.

Pei Jing smiled and asked him to sit down, and he sat on the side with a smile and said: "Brother Lu is so out of touch, just call me Pei Jing. It's just to send a post, but I'd like to ask Brother Lu to come by himself and find a little friend at random. It’s enough to say no.”

Lv Hong smiled and said: "We are familiar with each other, but we still have to follow the rules, but didn't I not salute you when I saw you in private?"

Pei Jing pretended to be angry and said, "It's a good thing Brother Lu doesn't have such a mother-in-law. You have to salute me, and I won't allow you to enter this door in the future."

Lu Hong laughed loudly: "Okay, I know you're a man, so I won't say polite words. To celebrate your promotion tomorrow, Mr. Cao will specially hold a family banquet for you. Brother Pei, you must welcome it." Appreciate it."

Pei Jing said with a smile: "We must arrive on time."

Lu Hong stood up and said: "Okay, now that the word has arrived, Brother Yu has something else to say, so let's leave first, because it's a family banquet, and it's not formal, brother Pei can bring his wife along with him."

Pei Jing smiled and said, "Okay."

He personally sent Lu Hong out of the door, and Chen Miao walked beside him, not very happy, and said softly: "I really don't want to go to the government's banquet."

Pei Jing knew that she didn't want to see Yao Fupei, but it was said that Yao Fupei seemed to be favored by Cao Dacheng's side, so if it was a family banquet, she would definitely attend.

He thought for a while, since his daughter-in-law didn't want to go, why bother, he laughed, hugged Chen Miao lightly, and said in a low voice, "If you don't want to go, you won't go, it's just a entertainment, why let yourself eat I'm not happy."

Chen Miao smiled lightly, bowed her head and thought for a while, before saying, "Go, since the other post has also been downloaded, and you specifically asked me to go, you also agreed, so you can't break your promise."

Pei Jing smiled softly, "I don't want you to be unhappy."

Chen Miao only felt warm in her heart, and she smiled softly, "Just go, what am I afraid of?"

Pei Jing bent his lips and smiled, lowered his head and kissed Chen Miaoguangjie's forehead lightly, and said with a smile: "Come on, I'll take you to the street to choose some good clothes and jewelry, now you are the wife of the captain anyway, you can't wear them It’s so shabby that people underestimate it.”

Chen Miao laughed: "Clothes are fine, but is it worth buying jewelry? If you take out the few pieces that uncle gave you, I'm afraid it will dazzle other people's eyes!"

Pei Jing thought about it, and laughed himself first: "Okay then, let's go buy some clothes, time is too tight, it's too late to do it now, let's go to the tailor shop to pick some clothes."

The two of them did what they said, and went out to the street holding hands, going directly to the biggest tailor shop.

Chen Miao has a good figure, with thin shoulders, willow waist and well-proportioned limbs, and her clothes are easy to choose.Pei Jing picked out a few new and good designs and gave them to Chen Miao, asking her to try one by one.

Chen Miao held several pieces of clothes that cost about one hundred taels and tried them on one by one. Pei Jing's eyes shone brightly, and she patted her thigh and only shouted yes.

According to Pei Jing's intention, I was afraid that they would have to pack them all up and take them back, but Chen Miao felt sorry for the money and didn't want to buy more, so in the end she only picked two pieces and took them back.

After returning home, Chen Miao took out some jewelry that Pei Songmao gave her and carefully selected them.

Pei Songmao gave her five things in total, a five-color golden phoenix gemstone hairpin, a ruby ​​hair button, a pair of twisted gold inlaid jade bracelets, a pair of fine jade teardrop earrings, and a pair of Necklace in gold and green onyx.

Chen Miao looked left and right, and she felt good. Pei Jing couldn't help laughing when she saw that she was hesitating.

"This is just a whole set of hair masks for you. Can't you just wear them all? Do you still need to choose?"

Chen Miao glared at him: "Wouldn't it be enviable to be hated if I wear it all? What's more, I'm not an upstart, so I wear it on purpose to show off?"

Chen Miao didn't listen to Pei Jing, and thought for a long time, then put on the ruby ​​hair button and the pair of teardrop-shaped earrings. She didn't wear the pair of twisted gold bracelets on her wrists, but took out from the bottom of the box even though she was on her. When she was at her worst, she was not willing to sell the pair of silver bracelets left by her mother.

At the end of Si time on the second day, Pei Jing rode a horse by himself, hired a sedan chair for Chen Miao, and headed towards the Yunzhou government office together.

When they came to the gate of the mansion, one of the servants saw Pei Jing coming on horseback from a distance, and told Cao Dacheng earlier, Cao Dacheng actually stood at the gate to greet him.

Cao Dacheng has been the magistrate in Yunzhou for more than eight years. It took him nearly 12 years to go from a magistrate of the seventh rank to a magistrate of the fifth rank.

As for Pei Jing, it took only half a year for Pei Jing to go from a recruit to the fifth-rank infantry captain today.

It would be impossible if Cao Dacheng wasn't jealous at all, but no one can control his personal luck and circumstances.Even if he was envious and jealous in his heart, Cao Da had been an official for many years, so he was able to control his small emotions with ease, otherwise he wouldn't have set up such a dust-cleaning banquet for Pei Jing the day after he returned to Yunzhou.

Although Pei Jing was young, he was promoted fast enough, and it was foreseeable that this young man's career in the future would definitely not be too bumpy.

So Cao Dacheng took the first step to show his kindness to him. In the future, Pei Jing will really become a marquis and worship general one day. Even if he doesn't expect him to promote himself much, at least he won't have an enemy out of thin air.

Pei Jing was a little flattered to see Cao Dacheng waiting for him at the door. After all, before leaving Yunzhou, when he saw him, he still had to bow down and salute, saying "Master Cao". Goodbye, people, it's already an equal-level discussion.

A civic official and a military commander are both of the fifth rank.

Pei Jing got off his horse quickly, walked up to Cao Dacheng a few steps ahead and said with a smile, "Lord Cao."

Chen Miao got off the sedan chair and came to Pei Jing's side and paid respects: "I have seen Mr. Cao."

Cao Dacheng chuckled, and hurriedly said with a smile: "The virtuous couple are really affectionate, really enviable."

Chen Miao said with a smile: "Lord Cao also has a virtuous helper. I don't know if my elder sister Qin is fine recently, but is she inside?"

Cao Dacheng was slightly taken aback, and then he remembered that Mrs. Pei still has a lot of friendship with his wife.

He hurriedly said: "Zhuo Jing is probably still dressing up at the moment, she will come out when she is young, it is windy outside, the two of you should go to the flower hall to sit down and chat slowly."
