The reborn poisonous woman is hard to abandon

Chapter 145 Matchmaker
"Miss, I see that the young master will not easily forgive the young lady this time, do you really want to be their matchmaker?"

On the way back, Zhuyun took the burden Pei gave to Xiao Zhongheng, with a sad face.

She still remembered clearly the last time Pei's mother and daughter came to Lu's house to quarrel, and she didn't want her young lady to share such a superb product again.

The wheels of the carriage creaked and creaked, Xiao Ruan glanced at the bundle in Pei's hand, and couldn't help but sigh.

The Pei family was just a small family in the capital, and it was thanks to Gu's role that they were able to form a family with the Xiao family.

In the past, they didn't think there was anything wrong with the children from this small family, but after going through this time, Xiao Ruan really opened his eyes.

Mrs. Pei's aggressive appearance is something she has never seen or heard before. With such parents, it is no wonder that Pei Yuemei has such an indistinct personality.

"Forget it for now, just put it away after you return home."

After hearing this, Zhuyun felt very happy and quickly agreed.

When the lady said that, it was obvious that she didn't want to meddle in Pei Yuemei's business.

"Speaking of which, Mrs. Pei is really weird. Her daughter wanted the young lady to help make peace with the young master, but she was fine, and kept on burying the young lady. The servant girl didn't leave her eyes when she was in the room for a while. Miss Guo, I wish I could eat you up, it's really annoying!"

As soon as she relaxed, Zhuyun couldn't help talking about Mrs. Pei's badness, with an angry look on her face: "I think she just thinks that Mrs. Gu's evil spirit is better than Miss."

"You are wrong, she is actually just acting today."

"Acting? Miss, the maidservant is getting more and more incomprehensible to what you said. It's already at this time, what kind of drama is that Mrs. Pei still acting?"

Zhuyun seemed to have heard something extraordinary, her face was full of doubts.

Xiao Ruan shook her head helplessly, and then explained to her: "The reason Mrs. Pei is dissatisfied with me is because he thought that I went to Pei's house to help my brother settle the matter and reconcile with her daughter."

"She, she is too arrogant!"

Zhuyun's eyes widened, and she was stunned for a long time before she understood the meaning of Xiao Ruan's words, and immediately showed an inconceivable expression.

Xiao Ruan was amused by his face-changing appearance, and felt incredible in his heart.

If it was true, Mrs. Pei should thank her, but from the moment she entered the room, Mrs. Pei stared at herself, as if she, Xiao Ruan, had done something wrong.

At the beginning, she was still a little unclear why Mrs. Pei was so hostile to her, until she heard what she said to Pei Yuemei when she left angrily, she would be suppressed by herself in the future, and Xiao Ruan felt suddenly enlightened.

Mrs. Pei has not figured out the current situation of Pei Yuemei and Xiao Zhongheng, and thought that Xiao Zhongheng was reluctant to leave Pei Yuemei, and sooner or later he would come to Mrs. Pei to kowtow and admit his mistake, and invite Pei back.

So when she appeared at Pei's house, the other party immediately acted arrogantly.

And being picky about her in every possible way is to suppress it first, not wanting Pei Yuemei to look at other people's faces after returning to Xiao's mansion.

I really love my daughter!

Xiao Ruan shook her head, completely throwing everything about Pei's out of her mind.

Two days later, Xiao Ruan and Mrs. Lu Heng came back from the room to invite An, and suddenly saw Lian Qiao looking for her.

"Miss, there are people from the Pei family again."

"Who is coming from the Pei family again? But that old and ugly old witch?"

As soon as Lu Heng heard the Pei family, all the feathers on his body stood up like a fighting cock, and at the same time he didn't forget to turn his head and tell Qiao'er behind him: "Go, you should quickly inform the young master and tell him that the old hag of the Pei family here we go again!"

"Miss Biao, it's not the old witch who is here!"

Lianqiao naturally knew who the old witch Lu Heng was referring to, and when she saw Qiaoer, she wanted to find Lu Hanrui and quickly stopped her.

Now Lu Heng felt even more strange, and beckoned Qiao'er back, wondering: "If it's not an old witch, then who will come to the Pei family?"

It seemed that Lu Heng's words made people laugh, Lianqiao covered her mouth and explained to Xiao Ruan who was waiting: "Miss, the person who came to the house this time was sent by the former young lady, and she said that she was giving some things to them. Newly made dim sum in the house."

"Hey, what snacks can be made better than mine, we don't care about her!"

With disdain on his face, Lu Heng raised his chin and looked at Xiao Ruan: "Let me tell you, this Pei family is not a good family. If you listen to me, don't give them good looks!"

She knew that Lu Heng was doing it for her own good, but what she said still made Xiao Ruan quite helpless.

They were very fast, and they returned to Xiao Ruan's courtyard in a short while. As soon as they entered the courtyard gate, they saw a round-faced servant girl waiting respectfully.

"Girl, this is the top-quality Yunding fragrant cake that my master asked me to bring to you. If you try it, you will definitely like it."

"Well, thank you, master, we have collected the pastries, you can go now."

Lu Heng was worried that Xiao Ruan's skin was not thick enough, so he got up and walked to the girl, took the food box, and asked someone to take her away.

"Gu, girl! My master still gave me something to say..."

The round-faced girl didn't think that the Lu family still had such a way of hospitality, she was startled, and begged Xiao Ruan before she was kicked out.

Xia Ruan secretly gave Lu Heng a thumbs up, and then said: "What are you talking about, just say it."

The round-faced servant girl heard the words, and then hurriedly said: "My master wants me to ask the girl, did the girl pass the gift to your brother."

"Go back and tell your master, when I go to Xiao's mansion, I will naturally send it up for him."

The servant girl was stunned and immediately answered: "So, the girl means that she hasn't sent it yet?"

"Our lady..."

Seeing that Zhuyun was being stopped from speaking, Xiao Ruan turned his eyes to the little maid: "I will send it off when I have time."

After the round-faced maid left, Lu Heng couldn't help being curious anymore, and asked around Xiao Ruan, "What did the girl ask you to give? Why is it so mysterious?"

Knowing that she couldn't hide it from Lu Heng, Xiao Ruan simply told the story of Pei Shi asking her to intercede and get back together with Xiao Zhongheng.

"This woman is too thick-skinned. She doesn't even think about how she treated you back then, but now she wants to bribe you with a box of pastries!"

As Lu Heng spoke, he opened the food box that Mrs. Pei sent, and after seeing that the pastries inside were only mediocre, the irony in his eyes became even more serious.

And Xiao Ruan was staring at the food box on the table, with a dark look in his eyes.

It was only two days before Pei Yuemei was in a hurry to contact her. Obviously she could come here in person to show her sincerity, but she called a maid to come over, which was really "sincere".

After going through this for a few days, Xiao Ruan still didn't send anything to the Xiao Mansion, and Pei Shi changed from asking every two days to once a day.

"Miss, how about if they come back tomorrow, the servant will say that the things have been delivered?"

Lianqiao was stunned by Pei's eager look, and couldn't help but offer advice.

Xiao Ruan thought for a while, then nodded, but saw a tall figure appearing in her room.

She never expected that Huo Xun would appear in front of her at this time, Xiao Ruan hurriedly adjusted her clothes, and found that there was nothing wrong with her clothes, so she got up to greet her.

Huo Xun hadn't come to see her for a few days, when Xiao Ruan saw the man in front of him, he suddenly had an indescribable feeling like it was in a lifetime.

Zhuyun, Lianqiao and the others looked at each other, and quickly asked everyone in the room to retreat, leaving a time for the two of them to be alone.

"You're not busy in the army anymore? How come you have time to see me?"

Having not seen him for many days, Xiao Ruan looked at Huo Xun's whole body from top to bottom, seeing that he didn't seem to have changed from the last time we met, he felt relieved.

She occasionally heard Lu Hanrui mention that Huo Xun was going to perform a mysterious mission this time, which seemed a little dangerous.

But now it seems that everything is fine.

"No matter how busy I am, I should make time to see you."

Huo Xun looked at Xiao Ruan with soft eyes, and didn't mention that he was going to carry out a secret mission. Then, without waiting for Xiao Ruan's reply, he handed over the burden that he had been holding in his hand to her.

"I accidentally hunted a white fox this time. I can make you a fur coat. Let's see if you like it?"

With a movement of Huo Xun's hands, he opened the bundle, revealing the snow-white fox fur inside.

Xiao Ruan looked at the fox fur, saw that the fur was shiny, it was an extremely rare white fox, and he didn't dare to pick it up for a while.

Such a snow-white fox fur can already be worth tens of thousands of taels of silver, and the one Huo Xun gave him is obviously bigger than usual, so it is naturally more precious.

Now this person is going to give it to himself like this?

"What? Don't you like it?"

Seeing Xiao Ruan staring at him blankly, Huo Xun unconsciously helped her put away the snow-white fox fur without any impurities.

He explained in the same way: "I heard the prince said that all the concubines in the palace love fox fur, but I don't know what style you like, so I gave you fox fur."

"Well, I like it very much, very much."

Xiao Ruan had just put away the package he handed over, when suddenly he saw Huo Xun staring at him with a smile on his face, blushing inexplicably.

"I'm here this time, and I have another piece of good news to tell you, would you like to hear it?"

"If you speak out, I am naturally willing to listen."

Stared at by the burning gaze of the man in front of him, Xiao Ruan felt more and more fiery on his face, and cast a sideways glance at him and said angrily: "What good news is it, you tell me? Don't make any more fools."

"Naturally, it's good news to make you happy!"

Huo Xun deliberately stimulated Xiao Ruan's appetite, seeing that she was in a hurry, he said slowly: "Your brother has achieved excellent results in this official examination and has been promoted to a fifth-rank official, do you think this is good news? "

"You, what you say is true!"

The news was so huge that Xiao Ruan couldn't believe it.
