The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Li Xiang went to pay homage to Jiao Xing and didn't return until dark.

He wanted to send his youngest daughter, Sister Mei, to the Kuanyuan, and hand her over to the wet nurse. Li Xiang didn't return to the main house until his daughter was settled.

After spending half a day with Mrs. Xie today, Pingyang's mood improved a lot. Seeing Li Xiang's return, she didn't ask about his sacrifice to Jiao Xing, she just looked at the accounts for that day.

Li Xiang first went to the bathroom to wash up, and when he came out, seeing that Pingyang still had no intention of responding, he leaned on the couch to rest.

Neither of the husband and wife spoke, and the room was silent. After a while, Yuzhu entered the room, lit a candle with a torch, and said to Pingyang: "Ma'am, I just heard from the door that Mr. Biao sent Sister Qing back. gone."

Only then did Ping Yang raise his head and asked, "Where are they? Why haven't we seen anyone?"

Yuzhu smiled, and replied: "Young Master Biao has caught a deer for my sister, and he is calling on the boys at the door to get the deer."

"This kid is really getting wilder and wilder." Pingyang said, then put down the account book in his hand, and said to Yuzhu: "Go, let's go and have a look, cousin is busy with errands now, and he is going crazy with this girl." After playing all day, don't let my sister pester him all the time."

Ping Yang came to the door with Yuzhu, Pei Yunqian and Li Kun brought Sister Qing back from hunting, and saw several people and a few servants busy around a spotted deer.

Seeing Pingyang, Sister Qing happily ran over, shouting: "Mother, come and see, my cousin has trapped a deer for me."

Li Kun had already tripped the little deer. He got up and wiped off his sweat, looked at Sister Qing and said with a smile: "This little deer is only half a year old, and it's time to be mischievous. I want to get it away from the garden." Go, Sister Qing insists on taking it to the yard to raise, I'm worried that if this little guy has fun, he will hurt his brothers and sisters."

When Sister Qing heard this, she pouted and said, "Just order the boys to put a fence in the yard. I just want to keep it in the yard so that I can see it anytime."

Ping Yang looked at the happy deer, and persuaded his daughter: "You should listen to your elder brother and put it in the garden, after all, it's not appropriate to put it in the yard."

"Just put a fence around it, it doesn't matter what matters." Sister Qing pouted and begged, "This deer is so small, I don't feel relieved to leave it alone in the garden, mother, please, let me Keep it in the yard."

Seeing this, Pei Yunqian who was standing at the side said, "Just follow my sister's wishes, let the boys tie the fence tighter."

Sister Qing said coquettishly: "Mother, it doesn't matter if you look at your cousin, just promise me."

Pingyang glared at his daughter: "You, don't bother your cousin to take you to hunt all the time. My cousin is busy with errands now, how can I have so much time to play with you as a child."

Pei Yunqian looked at Pingyang and said with a smile: "It's just like what you said, no matter how busy you are, you can still spend a day playing with the children."

As he spoke, he told the boy: "Take care of this little bastard, don't hurt my sister."

Pingyang said to Pei Yunqian: "You haven't eaten yet, have you? I asked the kitchen to make a hot pot, and you guys can use it while it's hot."

Both Li Kun and Sister Qing agreed, but Pei Yunqian said: "I have something else to do, so I won't eat here."

Li Kun is a martial artist. Ever since Pei Yunqian won the martial arts exam, he has worshiped Pei Yunqian as his teacher. In private, the relationship between the master and the apprentice is very strong.

Seeing that Pei Yunqian was about to leave without eating, Li Kun hurriedly said: "Let's stay, master. I have a jar of newly acquired good wine. It's been a long time since we master and apprentice have had a good drink together."

Sister Qing also said, "Yes, cousin, why don't you stay and have dinner with us."

Pei Yunqian looked at Li Kun first, and said: "I have something to do today, let's change it to another day." Then, he raised his hand and touched Sister Qing's head, and said with a smile: "The horse that has been running for half a day today will go tomorrow Go to the study, let's go back with your mother to rest earlier, you will leave school some other day, and your cousin will take you out for horse racing and hunting."

He looked at Pingyang and said: "It's getting dark, you take your sister and go back quickly."

With that said, Pei Yunqian ignored Pingyang's persuasion, got on the horse and left the palace.

Li Kun took the little deer back to Xianglin Garden with a few servants, Sister Qing followed Pingyang, and said to Pingyang: "Mother, why doesn't my cousin have dinner at the house?"

Pingyang replied: "Didn't my cousin just say that I have to be busy."

"No matter how busy you are, don't you even have time to eat?" Sister Qing muttered in a low voice: "Mother, do you think my cousin doesn't like father?"

"It's because of his father that he doesn't want to come to the door, right?"

Sister Qing has always been sensitive, but Pingyang did not expect a teenager to see this. She looked at her daughter suspiciously and replied, "Where did you hear these words? Don't talk nonsense?"

Sister Qing snorted coldly and said, "I don't need others to say this, hum! I saw it myself."

As he spoke, he sighed slightly and said, "Uncle and father are not the same kind of people."

"I still prefer people like my cousin. I don't like my father."

Pingyang knew that her daughter had always had a grudge against Li Xiang, and she never wanted to get close to Li Xiang, but hearing her daughter say such words made Pingyang very unhappy.

Ping Yang looked at his daughter with a frown, and said coldly: "Your father is not sorry for you at all. You really have no filial piety when you say such things."

Seeing that her mother was angry, Sister Qing quickly replied: "I didn't mean to hate my father, but..."

"I just can't like it, so what can I do?"

Pingyang looked at her daughter, who was still in high spirits just now, but now that she mentions her husband, she suddenly loses face, and her heart softens.

Pingyang took his daughter's hand and said patiently: "The reason why you don't like your father is that you spend too little time with your father and daughter. You are our first child. When you were born, your father He is only in his twenties, and he is still a child, so he doesn't know how to be a father, how to get close to you, and this has caused the relationship between you to become estranged."

Ping Yang looked at his daughter, and persuaded softly: "Your father loves you in his heart, so don't treat him like this. A daughter must be filial."

Sister Qing was silent for a while, and replied: "I don't like my father, not because I don't get close to him often, but because I can't see him making you sad."

Pingyang was startled by her daughter's words, she hurriedly replied: "Your father and I have always been in harmony, why did he make me sad?"

"You child is just too sensitive."

"We're fine, don't keep thinking wildly."

"Mother, don't fool me, I'm not a child anymore." Sister Qing stopped, looked at Pingyang and asked, "Mother, tell me, what happened to Father and Sister Mei's mother in the past?"
