The Male Wife

Chapter 241 Decision

In a few words, after Chu Xun went away, where Chu Baijiao would stay was decided.

Jiang Linzhi wasn't surprised by Pei Cheng's decision at all, but he was still displeased, but he never showed it.

Chu Xun will leave in five days, and will move Chu Baijiao's luggage to Jiang Linzhi's house. Then he said a few words, and then Chu Xun left with the still ignorant Chu Baijiao.

That night, when Jiang Yanzhi learned that Chu Baijiao would live in his home for a period of time after five days, his mind was dazed. Jiang Yanzhi looked at Pei Cheng with a puzzled expression and said, "Father, Why does Chu Baijiao want to live in our house?"

Pei Cheng glanced at Jiang Linzhi's direction with a guilty conscience, and then said: "It's not convenient for her to stay at home alone, so she wants to come to our house for a while, it should be fine."

Jiang Yanzhi took a mouthful of plain rice sullenly, "Well, it's okay."

It's okay to say that it doesn't matter, but in fact, Jiang Yanzhi's face shows that he doesn't mind at all.

Pei Chengpo felt distressed, but he also found it funny. This Jiang Yanzhi, obviously told himself last time that he was willing to be friends with Chu Baijiao, but now that Chu Baijiao was going to live at home for a while, Jiang Yanzhi Yan Zhi is not happy.

Jiang Linzhi took a sip of the soup, and seeing that Pei Cheng was still worrying, he frowned, "Eat obediently."

Pei Cheng was warned, so he stopped thinking about it and ate with his head down.

Jiang Yanzhi didn't have much appetite, so he had to get up and leave after eating two bowls of rice.

Immediately afterwards, Pei Cheng also put down the bowl and chopsticks, "Let me go talk to him, he doesn't seem to be in a good mood."

It seems that compared to Pei Cheng's sensitivity to the little guy's emotions, Jiang Linzhi doesn't mind what Jiang Yanzhi is awkward about, he only cares that Pei Cheng is busy paying attention to other people's affairs, but always forgets that he is still A pregnant woman who needs to be well protected.Jiang Linzhi pulled Pei Cheng and insisted that Pei Cheng drink another bowl of soup before leaving.

Pei Cheng held the soup bowl aggrievedly, finished it obediently, and then watched Jiang Linzhi come over with a straight face, wiping his mouth with a clean cloth towel seriously, Pei Cheng suddenly stopped being angry, Pei Cheng tried Looking at Jiang Linzhi, he asked, "Are you angry because I agreed to Chu Xun's request?"

Jiang Linzhi said lightly: "I know you always feel that you owe Chu Xun."

Pei Cheng was speechless by Jiang Linzhi's words, and finally he could only say embarrassingly: "If you don't repay your kindness, it's not good for anyone to spread it. What's more, if it wasn't because Chu Xun helped me back then , I may not have the ability to live so well in Jiang’s Pianzhai.” Seeing that Jiang Linzhi’s complexion still did not improve, Pei Cheng continued to flatter him: “You also know that during the years in Pianzhai, Hu Xiayun My hand has already started to take over the work of the back house of the Jiang family. She doesn't pay me a monthly payment. The servants in the yard of the side house are not sincere enough to me. If I don't pay them a monthly salary, I will starve to death sooner or later .”

Jiang Linzhi frowned, "Didn't Hu Xiayun send you a monthly payment back then?"

As long as you are a member of the Jiang family, no matter which courtyard you are in, on the [-]st of every month, the head of the house will receive a unique monthly payment from the hands of the head of the house, which is specially for the daily food and clothing of the masters of each courtyard. Degrees and rewards for servants or kept in private treasury.But Jiang Linzhi clearly remembered that he had someone check it back then, and Hu Xiayun would pay the partial house every month.

But why did Pei Cheng say that he didn't give it at all?

Pei Cheng lowered his eyes and said: "I did, but I only give five taels of silver a month, and this money is not enough to buy a set of fashionable clothes, let alone support the whole family. Because of the financial constraints, So after meeting Chu Xun at that time, he told me about the dim sum shop. At that time, he had some spare money, so he asked him to help find a shop, find staff, and open the shop.

Pei Cheng looked at Jiang Linzhi, "You may have some opinions on Chu Xun in your heart, but if he hadn't given me this kindness back then, I might not have had a very good life. I want to repay this kindness."

"The kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by a spring. Since you want to repay your kindness, then I will not stop you." Jiang Linzhi finally let go.Pei Cheng beamed with joy.

Jiang Linzhi's eyes fell on Pei Cheng's stomach, "But you have to pay attention to your body now."

Pei Cheng was startled, "What do you mean?"

"During this period of time, the imperial capital city will not be very peaceful. Maybe it will involve Wuwu Pavilion." Jiang Linzhi is unwilling to tell Pei Cheng about the turbulent waves under the imperial capital city. This is something Pei Cheng should not be responsible for alone "The fact that Chu Xun is going to travel far away is a sign. If you go out during this time, you must bring someone with you, understand?"

Pei Cheng has a quiet temperament and rarely goes out. In addition, this is an unfamiliar imperial capital, so Pei Cheng rarely goes out. "What's wrong with the imperial capital?"

Jiang Linzhi glanced at the sky in an unpredictable way, and said vaguely: "It's probably a matter of the Tian family, and it's hard to say clearly."

Pei Cheng was inexplicable and didn't react for a while, but seeing that Jiang Linzhi didn't want to say more, Pei Cheng didn't continue to press him. He got up and said, "I'll go and see the little guy, don't make him angry. You'll be early later Go back to your room, don't be too busy."

Jiang Linzhi watched Pei Cheng leave.

Cheng San, who had been waiting for a long time, took a step up and whispered in Jiang Linzhi's ear, "Master, that master has come to look for you, and he is waiting for you in the dark pavilion now."

Jiang Linzhi nodded, and strode towards the backyard, Cheng San hurriedly followed behind Jiang Linzhi.

Today, maybe it really is going to change.

Because even the Inorganic Pavilion, which seldom gets involved in court affairs, is willing to receive members of the Chu family in the Dark Pavilion for the first time.Pei Cheng didn't know anything about it at the moment.

Pei Cheng pushed open the door and walked in. Seeing Jiang Yanzhi obediently cross-legged, sitting on a low couch reading a book, he put down the fruit plate in his hand and placed it on the low table in front of Jiang Yanzhi, "Bai Jiao He will come to live at home in a few days, don't you want to see him?"

Jiang Yanzhi said in a low voice: "That's not true, but I don't like it."

Pei Cheng was very interested in the little guy's cautious appearance, "Didn't you tell me in secret before that you like Chu Baijiao very much as a friend, why now that he is coming to live at home for a while, but you don't want to."

Jiang Yanzhi's face was reddened by Pei Cheng's words, "Father, this is not the same thing."

"This is not the same thing." Pei Cheng took out a fruit with a thin skin, and stuffed it into Jiang Yanzhi's mouth.

Jiang Yanzhi's mouth was full of food, "Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh."

Pei Cheng was amused, "Come east, go get a cup of tea."

Dong Lai quickly poured a cup of hot tea and put it on the low table.

Dark Pavilion.

The second prince of Chu, who deliberately dressed low-key, had both arrogance and coldness in his expression, "I have been waiting here for half an hour. Is this how Wuwu Pavilion treats guests?"

Zhu Wan persuaded in a low voice: "Second prince, maybe there is something wrong with Wuji Pavilion, don't worry."

The second prince of Chu is not a stupid person. He knows that he came to Wuji Pavilion this time to find Jiang Linzhi for something important, so he must not offend Wuji Pavilion casually. Wanting to stabilize his emotions, he looked at Zhu Wan coldly, "If this matter doesn't work, it's up to me to deal with you."

Zhu Wan pursed her lips and did not speak. Her father had a showdown with her last night. The Zhu family is now fully supporting Prince Chu's henchmen. It is absolutely impossible for Zhu Wan to leave the Zhu family, so Father Zhu simply took advantage of this This time, Zhu Wan was directly brought in front of the second prince of Chu, so now even Zhu Wan is a pawn of the second prince of Chu.

Fade Chen pushed open the door and walked in, the owner of the Feixin Pavilion of the Inorganic Pavilion, but stood aside without moving.

Jiang Linzhi, who was wearing a black brocade robe, walked in from the outside, "The second prince is coming to the Wuwu Pavilion, and I am disappointed to welcome you."

The second prince of Chu got up, with a humble attitude, "The master is joking. In terms of seniority, the status of this palace in the Jianghu is not as high as that of the master." Dozens of translucent night pearls are placed in the dark pavilion, illuminating the entire room very brightly. , and there is no faint smell of candlelight.But for some reason, the Second Prince Chu looked at the luminous pearls placed in the room, and always felt that it would be better to light a candle.Jiang Linzhi sat down, "The second prince was joking. I don't know why the second prince came to Wuwu Pavilion this time."

The second prince of Chu straightened his robe and said: "I want to do a small business with the pavilion master, but I don't know if the pavilion master is willing to be beautiful."

Subconsciously, Jiang Lin guessed that what the second prince of Chu would say next should be about Chu Xun, but he said with a calm expression on his face, "But it's okay to say."

The second prince of Chu was not polite to him: "I came here today specifically for Chu Xun's affairs. I heard that the little princess Chu Baijiao will stay in the Wuji Pavilion during this time. After Xun left the imperial capital, can the little Princess Chu Baijiao... be handed over to Ben Gong?"

The Second Prince Chu's words were extremely blunt, even his tone was arrogant, obviously he didn't take Wuwu Pavilion seriously.Fade Chen, the owner of the small pavilion of Feixin Pavilion, frowned, suppressing the displeasure in his heart.

Not only Fade Chen, but even the other subordinates of the secret guards in the dark pavilion began to look unsteady after hearing what Prince Chu said.

The tone of the second prince of Chu was really arrogant enough, he didn't pay attention to Wuwu Pavilion at all.

Jiang Linzhi's expression was indifferent, and he didn't change his face because of the tone of the second prince Chu, and said: "Little princess Chu Baijiao, this matter is not something I can change casually. What's more, Wuwu Pavilion has always been for business. And the little princess is obviously not a member of Wuwu Pavilion, how can I treat her as a commodity and do business with the second prince?"

Zhu Wan carefully looked at the second prince of Chu, the second prince was unhappy, Zhu Wan reprimanded: "Jiang Linzhi, the little princess is a member of the royal family, and the second prince and the little princess are also close relatives, you don't have to guard against the second prince, the second prince I won't do anything to the little princess."

If this Chu Baijiao was taken away by the second prince of Chu, who would know what would happen next, and who would dare to guarantee it?

Jiang Linzhi drank tea without expression, without expressing his opinion.

But Jiang Linzhi's attitude has been clearly expressed, and the atmosphere in the dark cabinet has dropped to freezing point.
