Nine-fold lotus of the famous family

Chapter 359 You and I, Let Your Heart Go (2)
"Xinyou dare not!"

Shen Xinyou lowered her eyes, a little apprehensive, she wanted to show courtesy to Pei Yan when Ji Chonglian was not around, but he turned a blind eye to everything she did.

When Pei Yan returned to the mansion, she was the happiest person, but he rushed to the main room immediately, and at that time she was rushing back to the house to get dressed, but she didn't even see his face.

They were in love last night, but she couldn't sleep all night. If it wasn't for the heavy makeup on her face, she might not be able to hide the haggard look on her face.

Pei Yan glanced at Shen Xinyou, then at Ji Chonglian, and after a moment of silence, said: "I was negligent about Miss Shen, Lian Er, you know all about it, right?"

"know."

Ji Chonglian nodded with a smile, gentle and generous, but the smile didn't reach her eyes, "Miss Shen's parents are dead, I know you have always been kind, so I want to be a good person to the end."

She didn't mention this matter yesterday. First, the joy of their husband and wife's reunion had overshadowed all of this, and she had forgotten that there was still this incident at the time. Second, it was not appropriate for her to mention this matter first. She wanted to see See what Pei Yan is thinking.

Pei Yan was stunned, for some reason, Ji Chonglian's smile made him feel a little tingly, as if he had done something wrong, but in fact he hadn't done anything.

He can understand that a woman is jealous, but he only wanted to give her a temporary shelter when he brought Shen Xinyou back to Pei's mansion. He definitely had no other unreasonable thoughts. He retreated completely, he didn't want Ji Chonglian to misunderstand anything.

"Lian'er, I..."

Regardless of the presence of maids and servants, Pei Yan tightly grasped Ji Chonglian's hand, as if anxiously trying to explain.

Shen Xinyou saw it in her eyes, her eyes flickered, and her eye sockets were slightly red.

Ji Chonglian sighed, and then slowly said: "I know you are kind-hearted and want to help Miss Shen, but you men will inevitably make mistakes when you think about things. You have kept Miss Shen in the mansion so quietly, knowing Some people say that you are righteous, but those who don’t know think that Miss Shen is coming to be your little girl, isn’t that just ruining her girl’s reputation in vain!”

"It was my fault!"

Pei Yan nodded again and again, but held Ji Chonglian's hand even tighter. He intuitively felt that there was a wave of anger in his wife's heart. Maybe it hadn't erupted yesterday, but the moment he saw Shen Xinyou again, he couldn't suppress it anymore.

Ji Chonglian glanced at Shen Xinyou lightly, and fixed her gaze on Pei Yan, "Then what are you going to do with Miss Shen now?"

Shen Xinyou's face was a little pale, her hands were hanging by her sides and she tightened her clothes, her whole body was trembling faintly, it made people feel a little pitiful, but she would not soften her heart.

Pei Yan's eyes froze, and after thinking about it, he really realized that something was wrong with him. At that time, he rushed to the military camp to handle military affairs, so he left Shen Xinyou in the mansion. He didn't have much time to go back to the mansion on weekdays. Only after procrastination.

But now it's better, he finally found a good man for Shen Xinyou, if they can become husband and wife, they can support each other.

This matter should not be done by a man like him, but now seeing his wife's appearance, if he doesn't make a decision, he might really be a different person inside and out.

Pei Yan turned her head and glanced at Shen Xinyou. At this moment, she raised her eyes in a timely manner. There were tears in her beautiful eyes, and she looked at herself with some expectation.

The moment they looked at each other, Pei Yan's mind was shaken. Only at this moment did he clearly realize that Shen Xinyou had already...

Pei Yan quickly looked away, and turned to Ji Chonglian apologetically, he really didn't know that the matter would develop to this point, if he had known this earlier, he would not have made such a decision because of Shen Xinyou's pleading.

Pei Yan already harbored remorse in his heart. It seemed that he shouldn't have brought up this matter in the first place, so that now the snowball was getting bigger and bigger. If he tried to explain anything, it would become darker and darker.

Fortunately, although there was reproach in his wife's eyes, she hadn't really separated from him after all, otherwise he wouldn't have greeted him so enthusiastically when he returned home last night.

Yes, home... Only when Ji Chonglian is there can he feel like a home. Before that, he didn't care about this empty mansion at all. He even preferred to live in a busy military camp rather than live alone. In the empty garden.

The main room became warm because of the breath of her living. He woke up this morning and paid attention to the layout of the room. The blue curtains were embroidered with delicate lotus pictures, and the windows were pasted with light pink Goryeo paper. When the light comes in, it will give off a faint pink luster. The Jiuqu Palace Lantern on the table, the Ding Kiln Tea Gu, and the fruit plate with glazed ice pattern, these things they have used in Peng Ze's house, he suddenly sees them. A familiar intimacy, even the tea stains accidentally splashed on the dark blue mosaic tablecloth made him feel warm.

This is his beloved wife, and he can't bear to see her feel embarrassed and wronged.

Thinking of this, Pei Yan's expression turned back, and he said to Shen Xinyou seriously: "Miss Shen, I have really wronged you by letting you take care of the general affairs of the mansion these days, and now Lian'er has come to Liangcheng, she is my wife , I can rest assured that I will hand over the general affairs of the mansion to her, thank you for your hard work these days!"

Shen Xinyou bit her lips and widened her eyes, but there was a sense of unwillingness and resentment in her heart. Pei Yan was going to seize power for Ji Chonglian when she came back to the mansion, so what are her hard work and dedication these days?Everything in the mansion seems to be on the right track, but who knows the bitterness of her hard work at the beginning, and all this is just for others to marry?

"My lord... are you trying to drive me away?"

When Shen Xinyou said this, big tears were already falling down. The servants and maidservants around her hurriedly lowered their heads, and unknowingly took two steps back, pretending to turn a blind eye.

Pei Yan shook his head, and said slowly: "I took you in the mansion at the beginning because of your parents' death and loneliness, but this is not a long-term solution after all, so I asked Mr. Cai to help me when I returned to the barracks this time." After paying attention, he recommended Yang Baihu to me. This man is simple, honest and upright, and he is indeed a person who can be trusted for life. If you..."

"I do not!"

Before Pei Yan finished speaking, she was interrupted by Shen Xinyou's words. She wiped away the hot tears rolling down her cheeks, choked up and said: "Since your lord is not willing to protect Xinyou from the wind and rain, I will never have any more troubles in this mansion." Yan stays here, and asks my wife to please allow three days, after three days, I will wait for Xinyou to sort out the accounts and return them to my wife!"

After saying this, Shen Xinyou couldn't stay any longer, and ran out of the flower hall wiping her tears. The rest of the servants and maids didn't dare to make a sound. Presumptuously, he hurriedly saluted and ran out after Shen Xinyou.

Lin Tao covered her lips and snickered, Caiqiu waved all the waiters out of the flower hall, and only the two of them stood guard at the door.

"If you plan for others, others may not accept your affection. Miss Shen has high ambitions, and I'm afraid a mere head of a hundred households will not be able to impress you."

Seeing that there was no one around, Ji Chonglian couldn't help but snorted softly, does Shen Xinyou really like Pei Yan, I'm afraid not always!
"I've done what I can, and there's nothing she can do if she doesn't want to."

Pei Yan spread his hands, but he didn't feel anything, he did what he thought he should do, since Shen Xinyou didn't want to, he would definitely not force it.

Ji Chonglian blinked, and a narrow smile rose from the corner of her lips, "Then what are you going to do?"

"I heard Miss Shen once mentioned that she has a distant cousin in Gansu, so I gave her 200 taels of Cheng Yi, and sent two guards to escort her to her aunt in Gansu, which is considered my duty."

Pei Yan smiled at Ji Chonglian, obviously, Shen Xinyou's departure did not affect the appetite of the meal, took a piece of greasy chicken thigh with chopsticks and put it in Ji Chonglian's bowl, "Lian'er, if you don't like She is in the mansion, why didn't I send her away when I came back?"

For Pei Yan, Shen Xinyou just met him by chance, he has done his best to achieve this, and Ji Chonglian is his beloved wife, who wants to spend his whole life with him, the status of the two of them is naturally incomparable, and he can't do it for him An irrelevant outsider affected the relationship between their husband and wife.

Ji Chonglian withdrew the right hand held by Pei Yan, and picked up the chopsticks to pick up the chicken skin. Hearing Pei Yan's question, she couldn't help but give him a blank look, and said angrily: "Why should I take care of the mess you caused? Clean it up? Besides, if I really touch Miss Shen, what the neighbors will say, I'm afraid my reputation as a jealous woman has already spread all over Liangcheng."

"How can she be a jealous woman? She is obviously a virtuous woman and a clever woman. I have heard that if it were not for the good strategy you offered to King Yan, the siege of locusts in Liangcheng would not be so easy to solve. You are Liangcheng right now. A great benefactor in the eyes of the people!"

Pei Yan said this with pride, and he couldn't help looking at Ji Chonglian with a hint of pride, this is the woman he fancy, she is really extraordinary!
"Stop flattering me, I'm not in a good mood yet!"

Ji Chonglian turned her head away, Pei Yan hurriedly pulled the round stool to sit a little closer to her, persuading and coaxing her, the couple reconciled.

And the episode about Shen Xinyou was like a small stone falling into the lake, it didn't stir up any waves, and after a while, it was calm.

Shen Xinyou cried bitterly along the way, and finally ran to her own room, and fell down on the bed crying as soon as she entered the door.

Fang'er followed closely behind her, but was stopped by a little girl when she was about to enter the garden, she gave an annoyed look, "Tell me what's going on, girl, I'm just worried!"

The little maid was obviously taken aback by Fang'er's anger, and said tremblingly: "Fang...Sister Fang'er, Mrs. Zhang's servant Su Xin begged to see Miss Shen."
