Chapter 38
Speaking of the Zheng family's elegant meeting, the three sons of the Pei family all received the post.

The eldest son, who has children, is not interested in this kind of banquet, so he declined.

The third son will naturally go if he likes to be lively.

It's just that Mr. Pei is often away from home due to his busy schedule, so he doesn't have time to pay attention to these things.

This day Pei Yuan went to greet the old lady and came back, when he passed by the gazebo under the moon, he saw his second brother drinking tea in the gazebo, he couldn't help being surprised.

"It's rare that the second brother is at home today."

Pei Ji'an chuckled, "Occasionally, I have to live my own life, stealing half a day's leisure, brother sit down."

Pei Yuan pushed back his clothes and sat down, "It just so happens that I also want to ask you something."

"Brother, please speak."

"The Zheng Jiaya meeting is coming soon, will my second brother attend?"

"The Zheng family, the servant of the Ministry of Industry?"

"That's right. I heard that many high-ranking officials were invited. The third brother said to go, but he is not a good person. It's best if you can go. Although the Ministry of Industry is disdainful for the Sixth Ministry, but because of this, there is no need to worry about walking with him."

Under the current situation, there is a Pei family and a Xiao family. Some people stand in the Pei family and some people stand in the Xiao family. There are also many neutral factions. The three factions have just reached a peaceful situation.

This is the scene that the Holy Majesty wants to see the most. If anyone destroys it easily, he will inevitably suffer.

Therefore, these three factions acted very cautiously on weekdays. Whoever held a banquet had to be carefully considered for a long time, otherwise there would be suspicion of forming a party for personal gain if they were a little careless.

But if it is the elegant meeting of Zheng's family, the servant of the Ministry of Industry, it will basically not be linked to the words forming a party for private interests.

Without him, because of "scholars, farmers, industry and commerce", the Ministry of Industry is an existence that the sages and officials do not pay attention to.

Therefore, attending the Zheng family banquet has no effect on the party struggle, but it can be more peaceful and enjoyable, or it is convenient for other things.

"In that case, let's go." Pei Ji'an picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Pei Yuan smiled, and said: "Now my mother and grandmother are worrying about our marriage, and they are rushing to make a booklet, but how can a real person see this book clearly? I'll let it go, it's just your temper, You must find someone who suits your wishes to be harmonious, just take advantage of the Zheng family banquet and take a good look."

Pei Ji'an raised her eyebrows, "Brother is waiting for me here."

"In the past, when you were at the border, the old lady worried about you all day long. She didn't think about food and tea, and couldn't even sleep well. Now that you're back, let her old lady watch you get married and start a business. Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?"

Pei Ji'an didn't take it seriously, "Speaking of it, eldest brother's marriage is only more imminent than mine. Tuantuan is young, how can he lack the education of his aunt? Presumably grandma has nagged in front of you a lot because of this, right?"

Pei Yuan was a little embarrassed, not only did he chatter a lot, he would chatter every morning and evening, his ears were almost callused, and now his second brother finally came back to help him share some pressure.

He really has no feelings for those pretentious women. If he is married to such a woman, it is better not to marry, but there are also many virtuous and dignified women. Not at all, even the two rooms in the room, he didn't summon them often.

That's the case if you don't pay attention to feelings and don't pay attention to desires.

It's just that Pei Yuan didn't expect that at this time, one day he would make these two inconsistencies more important.

While the two were talking, the third son Pei Lian also came, his new wife insisted on pestering him to see the old lady, after talking for a while he couldn't sit still and came up with an excuse.

"Coincidentally, the eldest brother and the second brother are here." Pei Lian entered the pavilion with a playful smile and sat down, picked up the teapot on the table and poured tea for himself, but found that it was gone.

Turning around, he saw a maid walking not far away, and beckoned directly: "Come here."

This maid is Qu Fulan.

Yao Xing went to the old lady's room to ask Ann to speak. She was going to deliver tea, but someone summoned her here, so she had to walk over.

Pei Lian shook the teapot in his hand, "Go and bring a pot of tea here, you don't have eyesight, you..." He raised his eyes as he spoke, and after seeing the person's face clearly, the third young master changed his tone instantly, "Are you The girl next to the old lady, Haitang, right? I didn’t pay attention just now, and my tone was a bit serious for a while, don’t mind it.”

The flowers on the edge of the lake were blooming beautifully, attracting fish in the lake to eat the flowers, Shizi Pei was just watching casually, when he heard this, he turned his head and looked over.

Qu Fulan smiled officially, "Third Young Master, what are you talking about? Serving tea and water to the masters is our duty. Please wait a few masters, Haitang will go and serve tea."

After saying that, he bowed again and left.

Pei Yuan shook his head, "Third brother, you are too reckless. After all, this is the old lady's yard. How can the old lady's maid allow you to be presumptuous? You are already married, so you should act more prudently."

Pei Lian hurriedly waved his hands to beg for mercy, "I already know I was wrong, don't blame big brother, I promise I won't dare next time."

The three brothers chatted some more.

It stands to reason that we have finished talking about everything we should have talked about, and there is no more tea. According to Pei Shizi's habit, he should get up and leave, but he just sat still for some reason.

Pei Lian had been looking forward to it for a long time before Haitang came back.

"Why has it been so long?"

"The old lady is also waiting for tea in the room, Haitang first delivered it there before coming here, please forgive me."

Originally, she wanted to send someone here to deliver tea, but it happened that everyone was away, so she could only run errands.

Coincidentally, when she was delivering tea to the old lady's room, she heard that the third young mistress wanted her and Haiyue to attend a banquet in Zheng's mansion.

What do you say that the third house doesn't have any good maids, borrowing the old lady's two maids to show up, and the granddaughter-in-law opens her mouth for the first time, how can the old lady not respond?
Third Young Master Pei hurriedly smiled and said: "Forgive me, forgive me, of course I will forgive you, Hai Tang works hard to serve the old lady every day, I should not bother you."

Qu Fulan didn't talk nonsense with him, but with an official smile on his face, he made tea for them.

It stands to reason that they are resting here, and there should be a servant girl serving tea and water for her. Thinking about the previous one who had something to do and left, she was unlucky enough to be called here, and she had to face such a playful young man.

It's not hard to tell if a man is not interested, just like the third young lady who is not easy to get along with, you don't need too much contact, you can tell just by looking at his face.

What kind of bad luck did she have to run into this couple today?

Thinking of the words of the third young lady, Qu Fulan couldn't understand why she took herself to the Zheng family banquet?

Speaking of this, she thought of what Miss Zheng told her, did Prince Pei know?

She glanced at him indistinctly, thinking about whether to find a chance to mention it, but she met Pei Shizi's eyes, and she was so startled that the tea in her hand almost made a mistake.

Fortunately, Mr. Pei opened his mouth, "When will you get rid of your bad habit of making fun of girls, third brother? Just now your second brother said that he also went to the Zheng family's banquet. Later, you helped reply to the post."

"Second brother is going too?" Third Young Master Pei asked unbelievingly.

Pei Ji'an withdrew her eyes and hummed lightly.
