The Male Wife

Chapter 203 Fainted

The servant ran to Pei Cheng with a small basket of lotus seeds he had just picked to ask for credit.

Pei Cheng held the lotus seeds and walked towards the kitchen while pondering.

Dong Lai was taken aback, he thought Pei Cheng was bluffing when he said that he would cook reunion cakes himself, but he didn't expect it to be true, Dong Lai followed Pei Cheng with a sad face, and whispered: "Ma'am , the cook at home can also make reunion cakes, why do you want to do it yourself?"

"I have nothing to do to make a few." Pei Cheng squinted, glanced at Donglai lightly, and didn't take Donglai seriously, "Why, I even want to tell you how to make some reunion cakes?"

Dong Lai sneered and said that the slave dare not, since he saw Pei Cheng angry, how dare he offend Pei Cheng.

The kitchen was cleared, and all the cooks were driven out, leaving behind a chef in charge of the spoon and a boy who lit the fire. Pei Cheng took the washed lotus seeds and first boiled them into sugar fillings with lard and syrup.

The chef watched from the side, for fear that Pei Cheng would hurt him.

Pei Cheng also cooked before, but it was a matter of his previous life, and the past was unbearable, and he didn't want to think about it again.

Use the dough kneaded by the chef to pull out a small ball, knead it with the palm of your hand, put the lotus seed filling in it, carefully wrap it into a round cake, then start the pan again, after the lard is put down, Pei Cheng first puts the stuffing into the pan The two good reunion cakes were put down carefully.

There was a sound of splashing lard, and Dong Lai looked at Pei Cheng in fear.

In fact, Pei Cheng was not so inferior, but everyone had never seen Pei Cheng cook, and thought he could not cook, so they were very worried.

Pei Cheng didn't bother to explain anything to a group of servants, he threw himself on the reunion cake wholeheartedly, he turned the reunion cake over with a spatula, the first side was already browned, it looked pretty.

Dong Lai and the chef couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then they both thought in their hearts, when did Pei Cheng learn to cook?

He fried six reunion cakes in one go, and when the boiled lotus seed fillings were all used up, Pei Cheng stopped. He took the clean towel handed over by Dong Lai, picked up the plate containing the reunion cakes, and put them in the basket.

Donglai carried the basket, Pei Cheng walked in the front, and the two walked away.

Pei Cheng's waist hurt a little, while he was walking, he thought to himself, maybe it's because he didn't move for a long time, and he just stayed in the kitchen for so long.

Dong Lai looked at Pei Cheng's pretty expression, thought for a while, and said deliberately: "Ma'am, do you want to take two of these six reunion cakes to the master's yard?"

Pei Cheng's footsteps stopped, and he glanced at Donglai with an unpredictable expression. When he was cooking just now, he was only focused on making food for Jiang Yanzhi, but forgot about Jiang Linzhi.

Can……

Pei Cheng's eyes couldn't help hesitating, Jiang Linzhi shouldn't care about his so-called reunion cakes, right?

However, what Pei Cheng didn't know was that Jiang Linzhi cared very much.

"He doesn't like to eat these sweet and greasy things, and he may not be able to eat them if he gives them. Let Yan Zhi keep them, and let him take them to the school to share with the children who play well." Pei Cheng's chest felt a little stuffy ,Feel uncomfortable.

Dong Lai's heart skipped a beat, how could he not care? He cared to death, but Dong Lai couldn't tell Pei Cheng that Jiang Linzhi secretly went to see Pei Cheng almost every night, so he blushed. , "Madam, in fact, the Lord cares a lot."

Pei Cheng glanced at Donglai lightly, and didn't take Donglai's words to heart. He probably felt that Donglai was lying, but he thought about it, and finally said: "I will ask someone to give three to Jiang Linzhi later." .”

Of the six pancakes, the little guy eats one, and the remaining five are given to the school for points, which may not be enough points, so it is better to give Jiang Lin points for three.

Pei Cheng explained this from the bottom of his heart, being a coward once.

Dong Lai, who was still thinking about how to persuade Pei Cheng, suddenly felt relieved. It seemed that there would not be a long quarrel between Madam and Master.Before they had walked for a long time, when the two of them passed the front yard, a servant wearing Zhu family's uniform suddenly jumped out from the corner, he put a jade pendant in Pei Cheng's hand, and said in a low voice: "Someone Let me tell you, you don't belong to yourself, you will leave sooner or later, don't get complacent too early."

After finishing speaking, the boy took a look at Pei Cheng and ran away quickly.

Pei Cheng was startled, the jade pendant in his hand was a little cool and the texture was rough.

Dong Lai was taken aback, and after he realized it, the servant had already run away, and Dong Lai didn't see that the servant had just slipped a jade pendant to Pei Cheng just now, he hurriedly took a step forward, "Ma'am, Didn't that person startle you just now?"

Pei Cheng shook his head, subconsciously hiding the jade pendant.

He still remembered that person just now, it was the boy who stood beside Zhu Wang when Zhu Wang stopped his carriage yesterday.

How could Zhu Wang know about his affairs?

Pei Cheng has no backbone at all at this moment, and his heart is a little confused. He originally thought that his rebirth was basically God's knowledge.But now it has developed, he knows, Jiang Linzhi knows, and the inexplicable Taoist knows, and now it is very likely that even Zhu Wang knows about himself.

Dong Lai saw that Pei Cheng's expression was pale, something was wrong, and he was a little worried, but he didn't want to ask any more questions, so he could only grit his teeth secretly, thinking that he would talk to the steward later about what just happened.

After Pei Cheng was plundered from the Inorganic Pavilion last time, a major reform has taken place in the Inorganic Pavilion. Many people have been kicked out of the position of small stewards. Now they have to start training again, and then through their own efforts to Climb to the original position.

So now if Pei Cheng is taken away under their noses again, it will not be as simple as it was at the beginning. Thinking of this, Dong Lai couldn't help but become more worried.

When Pei Cheng was about to reach the familiar courtyard, his footsteps stopped, and then he remembered that this place no longer belonged to him. He pretended to be nonchalant, raised his feet and continued walking, then walked to the next courtyard, and pushed open the courtyard door , quicken the pace and walk in.

During this period, Pei Cheng has been tightly holding the jade pendant in his hand.

Dong Lai followed behind Pei Cheng with a worried expression on his face.

However, when Donglai put the basket containing the reunion cakes on the table, he was kicked out by Cheng Pei. Donglai thought that Cheng Pei was going to take a break, so he went out considerately.

Sitting on the low couch, Pei Cheng looked at the jade pendant in front of him, his face was full of deep thought, he didn't know this jade pendant, but he felt it was very strange.

A flash of inspiration flashed, Pei Cheng stood up from the round chair, pursed his lips, stuffed the jade pendant into his arms, and strode out.

Dong Lai had just stood at the door, and before he could stand still, he heard the sound of the door opening behind him, and was taken aback. However, before he had time to ask Pei Cheng, he saw Pei Cheng striding towards the door. go outside.

Donglai quickly followed.

Pei Cheng was only thinking about the jade pendant, and he didn't care about Dong Lai who was going to follow behind him.

Jiang Linzhi's study.

Pei Cheng pushed open the door of the study, glanced at the two servants guarding the door and Dong Lai, and ordered: "You stay here and don't come in."

The domestic servants met Donglai's eyes, and no one dared to say no, because they all knew that Pei Cheng was Jiang Linzhi's darling, and they couldn't touch him. What's more, Pei Cheng had to learn from the housekeeper to manage the backyard ledger before. The study checked the information for a few days, but Jiang Linzhi didn't say anything.

So the servant and Donglai dared not say anything.

Pei Cheng closed the door, took the candle in the house, and walked to the bookshelf on the wall of the back room. He had stayed here for a few days because of the time to settle accounts, and he came in to cross the river a few times when he was idle and bored. Rin's book.

Pei Cheng remembered that when he came to look through the bookshelf, he found an ancient book from the corner. That ancient book was not an ordinary ancient book, it contained special records of monsters, ghosts and snake gods, so Pei Cheng still read it at that time. With relish.

It wasn't until Pei Cheng had a cold war with Jiang Linzhi that he didn't finish reading the rest of the book.

After searching for a long time with a candle, Pei Cheng quickly found the ancient book he was flipping through last time. Because he was not tall enough, Pei Cheng tiptoed to take down the ancient book.

Holding the candle, he walked to the low couch on the side, put down the candle first, and then Pei Cheng took out the jade pendant stuffed in his bosom, and placed it on the low table.

Pei Cheng held the ancient book and flipped through it page by page.

When turning to more than 100 pages, Pei Cheng paused his hands, picked up the jade pendant that had just been casually placed on the low table, glanced at the ancient book, and then at the jade pendant.

This jade pendant...

Pei Cheng threw the jade pendant aside in disappointment, and then closed the ancient book.

There is a biography in this ancient book that specifically records the jade pendant. It is said that there is a piece of jade pendant in the legend that can make people travel between the future and the present, but no one knows the price paid.

When Pei Cheng got this jade pendant just now, he thought it was the jade pendant recorded in ancient books, so he excitedly ran over to compare it with the jade pendant, but he didn't expect it to be his own wild imagination.

Pei Cheng rubbed his forehead irritably, and sighed, he always wanted to know whether the secret of his rebirth was man-made or made by heaven, that's why he was so excited when he saw this jade pendant—a little servant What he said when he handed this jade pendant to Pei Cheng made Pei Cheng really think that the secret of his rebirth was hidden in this jade pendant.

After a while, Pei Cheng stood up and picked up the jade pendant, but the water chestnut of this inferior jade pendant accidentally cut Pei Cheng's hand.

"Hiss—" Pei Cheng cried out in pain, his hand shook, and the jade pendant that was in his hand fell to the ground with a thud.

Click.

The jade pendant was thrown to pieces.

Pei Cheng was stunned, then squatted down, just about to pick up the jade pendant, but his eyes darkened, his mind became dizzy, and he passed out without warning.

In the distance, in a homestay in the imperial capital.

Qingzhuo laughed loudly, "It's done!"

Bai Zhuo was preoccupied, and sent Pei Cheng back to his world in violation of the law of heaven. I don't know whether it was right or wrong.
