Chapter 48 The house collapsed
The Zhou Mansion is located behind the largest commercial street in Ningzhou. It can be regarded as a quiet place. Pei Zhan and Tao Zhen are dressed in such a way that the people in the Zhou Mansion look down on them. However, Mr. Zhou attaches great importance to reputation, and the servants in the mansion do not dare to make any mistakes. , and it was not too difficult for them to go in and report.

Pei Zhan didn't look good.

"Just be patient, the kid is difficult to deal with." Tao Zhen thought that he was not so embarrassed by the servants. After all, after being a noble son for more than ten years, he was suddenly being embarrassed like this, and he must not be able to bear it.

Pei Zhan said: "I know."

Tao Zhen looked at him.

Pei Zhan said: "After the Pei family's accident, I went to see many people..."

He went to find all his old friends, family friends, and relatives. The good ones could even come in and say a few words, but many of them were kicked away before he even entered.

Pei Zhan had tasted the warmth and warmth of human relationships as early as in the capital.

He didn't care about the attitudes of the servants, they just obeyed their master.

He sneered and looked at Tao Zhen. Speaking of which, he had been to the Tao family, otherwise he wouldn't have known that it was really the Tao family who stabbed him in the back.

Tao Zhen always felt cool to be looked at by him, and he didn't know what happened to make him unhappy again. Fortunately, he had the wisdom to shut up.

Mrs. Pei came soon after. It had been a few days since she had seen her, but it felt like several years had passed.

"Mom, how are you doing?" Tao Zhen asked.

Mrs. Pei smiled and said: "It's good. I'm with a few embroiderers, and they also like that Xiao Heng takes good care of him."

The relationship between the several embroiderers is cooperation rather than competition. They all want to finish their work and go home for the New Year. Everyone gets along very happily. Pei Heng is well-behaved and cute, and everyone likes her very much. There is nothing wrong with Mrs. Pei. The only worry is Tao Zhenhe. Pei Zhan.

Hearing what Mrs. Pei said was good, Tao Zhen breathed a sigh of relief and finally put his heart back in his stomach.

Snowflakes started to fall again in the afternoon, and the two of them were exhausted when they returned home. They had a simple meal, washed themselves, and then went to bed.

Perhaps because he was tired, Tao Zhen was sleeping deeply, and he vaguely heard some movement, followed by a loud roar.

Tao Zhen woke up from her dream and was stunned for a moment. She only saw a piece of her house smashed down from a corner. She understood what happened immediately, put on her clothes and ran out.

The west room where Pei Zhan lived collapsed.

"Pei Zhan...Pei Zhan..." Tao Zhen called his name while digging into the ruins. Fortunately, the Pei family lived in a thatched house, and the things that fell down were not heavy. When Pei Zhan was pulled up, he looked confused and his head There are still a few straws floating on it.

It is estimated that Mr. Pei never thought that one day he would be buried because the house he lived in collapsed.

Tao Zhen was amused when she saw him standing stupidly in unlined clothes and barefoot, and pulled him into her room. Then Pei Zhan remembered something and felt cold.

Tao Zhen rummaged through the cabinets, but she didn't have any men's clothes. She pulled up the quilt and handed it to him: "It's okay, I'll dig out your clothes and boots."

Went out after saying that.

The gray quilt is clean, with the girl's unique body fragrance and body temperature.Pei Zhan suddenly remembered that it snowed heavily in the capital that year and the red plum blossoms in Tao's house were in bloom. He and Pei Huan went to Tao's house to enjoy the plum blossoms.

Pei Zhan was running in the woods, and Pei Huan told him to be careful. When the two of them walked out a long way, they saw a girl standing on the side path. She was wearing a red cloak, with white skin, pink and phoenix eyes, and a small cherry mouth, like a girl who strayed into the woods. The little fox was standing under the plum blossom tree and talking to her maid. Suddenly she laughed, like the snow in winter melting and the flowers blooming in spring...

Pei Zhan retracted his thoughts. Tao Zhen threw the clothes to him and knocked his shoes on the wall to knock off the snow before throwing them to him.

Pei Zhan got dressed, and the two of them went to check the condition of the house.

Pei Zhan's west room was completely collapsed by the snow and was uninhabitable. Mrs. Pei's side was fine, but there was a big hole in the corner and a piece of the wall underneath fell off. The whole room was instantly blown away by the wind. , it is definitely not possible to live in it.

The only one with the least damage was Tao Zhen's room. Pei Zhan picked up some straw and went to the roof to block the gap.

Tao Zhen said: "Let's repair it tomorrow!"

She felt very uncomfortable. She finally saved some money, but the house collapsed again. Fortunately, Mrs. Pei and Xiao Heng were not there, otherwise she would have suffered the same.

"Go to my house and spend the night first," Tao Zhen said.

Pei Zhan was startled and glanced at Tao Zhen. Tao Zhen saw it and pretended not to notice how complicated he looked at him.

Lonely.

Doesn't Tao Zhen know?On the exile road, men and women were crowded together, and there were not so many rules.Compared with life, these are obviously not that concerning.

Tao Zhen's room became much colder after struggling for a long time. She went to get some charcoal fire and the room became warm.

Both of them obviously couldn't sleep. If nothing else, the house might collapse at any time, and someone had to keep watch.

Pei Zhan said: "You can sleep, I will watch over you."

Tao Zhen nodded, but she couldn't sleep even while lying on the bed. Pei Zhan sat on a chair with his back to her, staring at the window in a daze.

The thatched house is gone, and I don’t know how much it will cost to rebuild it.

The two of them had their own thoughts and no one could sleep.

Tao Zhen tossed and turned for a long time before she finally fell asleep. When she woke up, it was already dawn. Tao Zhen got dressed and went out. She saw Pei Zhan squatting in the west room digging for something. He didn't have many things of his own, just a few. After looking for some clothes or something, he gave up.

The snow in the yard was deep, making it difficult to walk even a step. In such a snowy day, it would be difficult to find someone to repair their house.

Tao Zhen went to the kitchen to cook some food, and the two of them ate simply. Pei Zhan said, "I'll go to the village and ask if anyone knows how to repair it."

That's all there is to it.
