Chapter 439 Marriage or Enmity?

Han Chan hesitated a little.

Pei Xiaoran saw her worry, just after turning a corner, there was a river next to the street, Pei Xiaoran said:
"Anyway, the scar has already formed. It's the same if you treat it earlier or later. Don't worry, why don't we first see what Sister Silkworm is capable of?"

Only then did Han Chan nod her head.

After the carriage turned a corner, before it came to a complete stop, Pei Xiaoran excitedly jumped off the carriage first.

She is really happy from the bottom of her heart.

As long as the scar on Han Chan's face can be removed, so that she doesn't have to go out every day wearing a black cloth, no matter whether the method is really effective or not, she is willing to try it.

Seeing Pei Xiaoran who was happier than Han Chan herself, Sang Can couldn't help showing a smile from the bottom of her heart.

It's great to be under such a person...

Although it has entered spring at this time, the spring is cold and the ice on the river has not completely melted.

But this was not a problem for Pei Xiaoran. She found the biggest stone from the bank of the river, then lifted it up, and threw it towards the middle of the river with all her strength.

There was only a 'crash', and cracks spread rapidly from the place where it was smashed like a spider's web.

Immediately afterwards, the ice on the entire river surface broke apart, and the ice blocks began to slowly drift away with the current.

Pei Xiaoran patted the dust on his hands, turned around and asked Mulberry Silkworm:

"Sister Silkworm, is this okay?"

Silkworm nodded, and then slowly walked down the stone steps on the river bank until he reached the lowest level, the one closest to the river, before stopping.

She first took out a small porcelain bottle from her slanted cloth bag, then sat down, poured the contents of the small porcelain bottle into the palm of her hand, and spread it on the soles of her shoes.

Pedestrians on the road saw Pei Xiaoran hitting the ice with stones at first, and thought it was a child playing.

Unexpectedly, immediately after that, a young girl walked down and made such a weird move, the passers-by on the road who couldn't help being attracted stopped and stretched their necks to look down.

What poured out of the small porcelain bottle was a paste, covered with a layer of oil, the color was black and smudged, and I don't know what it was.

After she finished smearing, she stood up and started walking along the river bank.

Pei Xiaoran scratched his head, completely unable to understand what the silkworm was doing.

But then, her eyes widened in disbelief.

The people on the shore even let out an exclamation in unison.

Along the places where the silkworms walked, countless fish appeared out of nowhere and scrambled to jump out of the water, trying to eat the paste left behind by the soles of the shoes.

When the fish jumped up and down, there was a burst of crackling and splashing, and the scene was very spectacular.

However, even weirder things are yet to come.

After all the paste was eaten, the fish shoal dispersed, but the remaining fish were floating on the water surface with their belly upside down, and they could be easily caught with one's hand.

Pei Xiaoran squatted down, stretched out a little finger, and poked a small fish closest to her, but the other party didn't respond at all.

"Dead, dead?"

"No, just dizzy."

Mulberry silkworm happened to come back at this moment and replied with a smile.

Pei Xiaoran looked at her in a daze, and murmured puzzledly:
"What... what's going on here? Even if it's feeding, the reaction of these fish won't be so big, right?"

"Of course it's not as simple as feeding," Mulberry Silkworm smiled and shook the mysterious small porcelain bottle in his hand, explaining to her:
"I took five eggs with green shells that had been soaked in a cool place for seven days, mashed them with mutton, flour, sunflowers, wild star anise, fennel, and herbal medicine, and then made a paste with suet. Only then did the fish that asked about the smell of mutton rush to the shore to compete for food."

Wow, so amazing?

Moreover, if this trick is used for fishing, wouldn't it be enough to just stand on the shore and put the fish basket directly into it?
Pei Xiaoran was amazed.

Mulberry silkworm turned her head, looked at Han Chan who was also dazed, and blinked at her, as if saying:

Well, now you finally believe it, right?

Han Chan lowered her head in embarrassment, and finally a little hope of recovery was kindled in her heart.

But at this moment, footsteps came from the side. It turned out that someone came down and wanted to catch the fish floating on the water.

But when they touched those fish, those fish seemed to be awakened by someone, suddenly turned over, and quickly swam away from their hands.

Those people caught the air and stomped their feet angrily, and some looked towards the silkworm, as if they wanted her to lure the fish into a stun again.

Pei Xiaoran hurriedly said:

"Let's go quickly, I'm afraid we won't be able to leave if it's too late."

The few people rushed ashore in a tacit understanding, got into the carriage, and left quickly.

The people in Tuliu Xing are still discussing endlessly about the spectacle just now.

As for Pei's residence, it was also very lively.

It is said that the parents are the ones to make decisions about marriage, but Mrs. Ye is busy taking care of her injured daughter, and Pei Zengshan is busy with Zhuangzi's affairs again and is not at home.

Therefore, after inquiring about the identity and origin of the young man who fell in love at first sight in the garden pavilion, Pei Huaixin impatiently brought Pei Shangchun to the old lady, and wanted the old lady to help make the decision and facilitate the marriage.

The old lady hugged a beloved granddaughter, and was coaxed into a smile by the sweet words of the two granddaughters, and said with a smile:

"So it's for this matter, it's a trivial matter! When your father comes back, I'll let him do it right away!"

Seeing that the old lady agreed so readily, Pei Huaixin was instantly elated, and hugged the old lady even more happily shouting at each grandmother.

It's just that before Pei Zengshan came back, for some reason, the news spread quietly in the mansion and reached Pei Xingshan's ears.

Pei Xingshan was teaching Pei Wenchang how to wield a knife and a gun, and when he heard the news, he almost lost his breath.

Although he could no longer enter the court hall for the time being, he has been paying close attention to the news in the court, so he has heard a little about Nie Xichen.

It was heard that the Holy Majesty wanted to send Nie Xichen back to Lv Wei together with the five thousand surrendered soldiers and horses he brought, and enthroned him as the new Lv Wei lord.

Not only that, but also some Suzaku soldiers will be sent to garrison around Lu Wei to protect Lu Wei from the enemy.

This matter has been settled, what is missing is nothing more than an imperial decree.

This is obviously because the Holy Majesty wants to make friends with Lu Wei.

And what does the old lady want to do?
Betroth a concubine to the future Lord Lu Wei as a queen? !
This is not a marriage, this is to make enemies with Lu Wei, right? !

If you just want to be an aunt, you don't have to wait for Pei Zengshan to come back, just give it to Nie Xichen.

Since he wanted to wait for his younger brother to come back before handling this matter, it was obvious that the old lady wanted to betroth Pei Huaixin to Nie Xichen as his wife!

Pei Xingshan immediately went to the old lady's Fushouyuan and sternly dismissed the matter!
