The Fugitive White Moonlight of a Powerful Minister

  Chapter 101 This is... Pei You?

  Wen Ning: "..."

  The word "daughter-in-law" is a bit bold...

  She glanced at Pei You with a little embarrassment.

  He didn't react at all, but before crossing the threshold, he stopped and tilted his head slightly: "Are you satisfied with your performance in front of your father-in-law just now?"

   Of course it's... not bad.

   Cough.

   "It's Madam's turn now." Pei You stretched out her hand towards Wen Ning, with dark eyes.

  Wen Ning raised her eyebrows.

   Come and not go indecently.

   Thinking of Wen Tingchun's face full of relief and joy when she just left Wen's residence, she decided to let go of her many prejudices against Pei You for the time being.

  She gently raised her hand and put her five fingers in his palm.

   Fortunately, the people in this manor are much more restrained. Although they are very happy to see them, most of them just bow to each other, calling "eldest son" to Pei You, and "madam" to Wen Ning.

  Pei You simply nodded, and Wen Ning quietly followed behind him.

  But the eyes still couldn't help but look around.

It is said that manors are not like manors in this place, and people reading books can be seen everywhere, and it is said that academies are not like academies. There are men and women, big and small. In addition to scholars, you can also see women weaving and embroidering, playing and playing. Noisy children.

  Tu Bai seems to be very familiar with this place.

  As Pei You's personal bodyguard, he has always been a taciturn, shadow-like existence.

But as soon as he entered the courtyard, he was like a fish entering a river or a bird flying into the sky. His whole body became active, showing the youthful spirit he should have at his age, **** and shaking hands with people one after another, very intimate .

  Pei You obviously didn't bring her to meet the Wangs.

  Then what is this place?

  There were many questions in her mind, but it was inconvenient to ask, Wen Ning just followed Pei You's side step by step, and a servant led them all the way to the deepest part of Zhuangzi.

  The courtyard is cool and clean. It’s July, and azaleas are still blooming. The house is a shoji gate that is rare in Beijing, which looks elegant and dignified.

  Wen Ning was still looking at herself, and suddenly saw Pei Youyingying a big gift: "The student and his wife Wen, come to see the teacher."

  Wen Ning was startled, before she had time to think about it, she immediately bowed down and bowed: "My concubine, Pei Wen, I have seen the teacher."

-

  Pei You actually has a teacher.

  Wen Ning knew that Wang and his wife moved from Lingnan to the capital for Pei You's studies, but she always thought that she just entered the school in the capital and studied with the master in the school.

   Unexpectedly, Zhenger Bajing worshiped the teacher.

  And he is a teacher who seems to be well-known and respected.

   When did you worship as a teacher?

   Did you worship as soon as you came to the capital?

  Why have you never heard him mention it before?

  Wen Ning was thinking constantly in her mind, but on the face she knelt on the futon quietly and obediently, listening to the two chatting.

   "The student originally planned to bring Ah Ning to visit the teacher yesterday, but the Ministry of Industry had something to do temporarily, so it was delayed until today, making the teacher wait for a long time."

  The old man smiled loudly: "You are thinking about coming to see the old man. I am very relieved. What difference does it make if it is sooner or later?"

  "Teachers are like reborn parents to students, and a bride who is married should ask the teacher to look at it earlier." Pei You's voice was clear and clear, no different from the past, but very different.

  Wen Ning quietly glanced at him, then at the seated person.

  His hair and beard are all white, and he looks very old. At first glance, he looks quite immortal.

  Pei You treated him with respect and humility, from face to heart.

   It seems that he really respects this teacher.

  The old man laughed happily when he heard Pei You's words: "It's my luck to be able to get a student like a pardon."

  A waiter brought tea, Wen Ning thought of the agreement she had reached with Pei You before entering the door, so she hurried forward and offered a cup of tea gently: "Teacher, please use tea."

  The old man took it with a smile, and praised: "If there is a woman like this, forgive me and take it seriously."

   "A Ning is what the students long for, and the students should regard it as the arch."

   That sounds really nice...

  Better acting than her.

  Wen Ning silently glanced at him when she sat back.

  Pei You didn't seem to notice, she was sitting upright, very elegant and dignified.

  Wen Ning withdrew her eyes, and continued to make a wooden stake to keep her eyes on her nose, her nose, her nose and her heart.

It was just that the two were chatting, and the old man suddenly said: "This time you personally supervised the construction of five schools in Jiangning, so that the other seven prefectures in the south of the Yangtze River dare not neglect. In just two months, twenty schools have been opened. The people clapped their hands and applauded. But I heard that the governor of Liangjiang was involved in this matter, is there anyone in the DPRK looking for trouble for you?"

   This is about court affairs, she should not listen to it.

  Wen Ning immediately said softly to the side: "Husband, when Ah Ning just came, she saw Zhuangzi's elegance and beauty, and wanted to go out for a stroll, is that okay?"

  She thought she said this very appropriately, and the timing was very sensible, but Pei You's eyelids visibly twitched.

   Then the black eyes stared at her without blinking.

   That's... right?

  Wen Ning blinked, Pei You lowered her eyes and nodded: "Go."

  Wen Ning breathed a sigh of relief.

   Coming out of the house, Wen Ning originally wanted to find Tu Bai. After all, she was very curious about Zhuangzi, so she could ask Tu Bai.

  However, I went around and couldn't find him.

  She had to wander around with no purpose.

  The more you shop, the more curious you become.

  In addition to the men who read books and the women who embroidered, she also saw farmers farming, and even a few sword-wielders dressed in quackery.

  These people of all kinds gather together, and the unexpected harmony and tranquility make this place look like a paradise.

  Wen Ning went further and further away unknowingly, and when she was hesitating whether to talk to someone to solve her confusion, a crisp voice came from behind: "Young Master's bride, are you lost?"

-

   Of course she wasn't lost.

   Probably the reason why she escaped from the Wen Mansion since she was a child and wandered the streets and alleys of the capital. Her sense of direction is not bad.

  Although the villa is indeed a bit big, and many yards are similar in size and shape, it is not enough to make her lose her sense of direction.

  But Wen Ning turned her head and saw that the child behind her was small, but looked smart and shrewd. She tilted her head and sighed, "Yes, I'm lost. Can you guide me?"

  She still holds the previous point of view, children will not lie, she has so many doubts in her heart, she can just ask this child.

   This child looked about the same size as the young master of Yan Li's family, only four years old, but his eyes were clear and his words were clear: "The bride of the eldest son's family, come with me."

   "My name is Douding. I am five years old this year. I am the bride of the eldest son's family. You can call me Doudou, Ding Ding, or Xiao Douding."

   Before Wen Ning could ask, Douding introduced himself.

  Wen Ning was amused by his words and wanted to laugh: "Good little Douding, why are you here alone?"

  Just now she walked a little far away, and there was no one around.

   "I've always been here alone." Douding raised his head.

  Wen Ning was taken aback, and Douding said again: "My friends here and I are both orphans. The teacher took us in and asked Agui to take care of us."

  This answer surprised Wen Ning: "Are all the teachers here taken in?"

  Douding nodded heavily: "Brother Tubai is too, the bride of the eldest son's family, don't you know?"

   Without waiting for Wen Ning to answer, he continued: "I've been here since I was three years old, and Brother Tubai didn't come here until he was a teenager! Agui said that he was seriously injured when he came here and almost died."

  So it’s just white, so it came from this manor?

   "The eldest son's bride, can I hold you by the hand?" Douding suddenly raised his head and asked.

   "Of course." Wen Ning knelt down, held his hand, and smiled, "But, can you stop calling me 'Eldest Prince's Bride'?"

   "Then what should I call you?" Douding wore a pair of buns, tilted his head and said, "I don't want to call you 'Madam', you don't seem that old..."

  Wen Ning was amused by him again: "Then you call me... Sister Ning?"

   "It doesn't seem very respectful to call it that."

  Wen Ning stood up, led him forward, and asked as she walked, "You all respect Pei... my husband?"

   "Of course! The eldest son is the best!"

   "Why do you call him 'Eldest Prince'?"

  Douding replied naturally: "Because he is the eldest son! He is the first disciple of the teacher to enter the family."

   "So...then there are other sons here?"

   "Of course! And..." Douding covered his mouth again in the middle of speaking, and said with wide eyes, "Ah Gui said that you should not talk about the affairs of the young masters."

  Wen Ning thought about it, so the people in this village are all orphans or homeless? For example, the injured Tubai. Are they all kept here by that old man?

   And those who are called "Young Master" are all disciples accepted by that old man?

   "Xiao Douding, is the eldest son also taken in by the teacher?" Wen Ning asked intentionally.

  Douding shook his head: "Of course not. The teacher only takes in those who have no family, the eldest son has a family!"

   Sure enough.

   "Then do you know when the teacher accepted the eldest son as a disciple?"

   "Of course I know! The eldest son came before I came. He asked the teacher to make an exception when he was sixteen and accepted him as the first disciple!"

  Sixteen years old, at that time she had not left Wenfu, no wonder he had never heard of it.

   "Then will he come here often?"

"In the past, he came here once every five days, and after he returned home, he seldom came here." Douding said a little disappointed, "Eldest Young Master's new wife, can you allow Eldest Young Master to come back often in the future? We Everyone loves him!"

  This is really strange.

   Respect is all.

  Pei You still has time to be liked.

   It is still the time when many people like it.

  Wen Ning wanted to ask again, but the little girl next to her suddenly yelled out in surprise, "Young master!"

   let go of her hand, and rushed forward like the wind.

"Eh?"

  Wen Ning wanted to catch him, but in vain.

   Looking up, she saw that Pei You had already squatted down, and picked up the child who rushed over.

  Wen Ning froze for a moment.

  Pei You... holding a baby?

  Holding Douding with one hand, a few rays of the setting sun shone into his black eyes: "Douding has grown taller."

  The voice was as light as ever, but it was different from the usual lightness.

  Douding smiled happily, and put his arms around his neck: "My lord, your bride got lost just now, I brought her back to you!"

   "Oh?" Pei You's eyes fell on his face, with a little smile, "Tell me, Douding, how did you bring my new wife?"

  Wen Ning stood there in a daze, forgetting to move for a moment.

   Douding's crisp voice kept ringing in her ears, but she only saw Pei You holding the child.

He used to like to be neat and tidy, and his black clothes were spotless, but Douding was different, whether he was a child or a child with no adults around him, his clothes were covered with a lot of dust, his face was not so clean, his nose and cheeks All stained with black and gray.

   But Pei You didn't feel disgusted at all, and listened to him patiently, and even reached out to help him wipe the dust off his face.

no…

  This is... Pei You?

   This is Pei You who saw the child's head on the ground without blinking his eyelids, and even showed a little pleasure?

  The impact of this scene on Wen Ning is like seeing a cheetah holding a lamb in its arms and lovingly licking it.

   Until she boarded the carriage back to the city, Wen Ning was still a little overwhelmed.

  How could Pei You be so gentle.

  Gentleness is just the skin of his disguise, and the inside is a dark and ruthless heart.

  But from the moment he stepped into Wangguizhuang, it seemed like he had become someone she didn't know.

  Be respectful to the teacher, patient and gentle to the children, even the smile in his eyes is very different from the usual maliciousness.

   This made Wen Ning extremely uncomfortable.

  It was as if... the truth she had always held was overturned overnight, and she was told that she was always wrong.

  Wen Ning found it hard to accept.

   Pretend it?

  She glanced uncomfortably at Pei You who got into the car and began to rest with her eyes closed.

  Out of Wanggui Mountain, he turned into his usual appearance, warm and moist, thin and thin, but it was as if he had put on an invisible armor, revealing a faint and sharp coolness.

   Which one is his shell?

  Aware of her thoughts, Wen Ning felt a little ridiculous again.

  In just one afternoon, he wanted to overthrow his perception of him for more than ten years.

   "Don't like this place?" Pei You asked her suddenly.

of course not.

  This place is so beautiful that it is almost illusory, it is the kind of paradise that only exists in scripts.

   So much so that he was rendered unreal.

  Wen Ning asked back: "Why did you bring me here?"

  Pei You opened his eyes, but the bottom of his eyes was still indifferent: "Being a teacher is like serving a father. Of course, when you marry a wife, you should give the teacher the palm of your hand."

  In his previous life, he never brought her to meet this teacher.

   In her previous life, she was still married. She never even knew about Wangguizhuang, or even that he had a teacher.

   Just like the Wangs, he never mentioned it in front of her.

  Thinking of this, a strange unease suddenly flashed across Wen Ning's heart, but it was only fleeting and fleeting.

   "Pei You, have you... encountered some trouble?" Wen stared at his closed eyes again.

  This person loves books like hell, whenever he is free, he will definitely hold a book in his hand.

   But for the whole day, the journey to Wenfu in the morning was only a short distance away. After leaving Beijing, he kept his eyes closed and dozed off during such a long journey. The eyelashes are full, and the index finger taps, obviously thinking about something.

  Pei You suddenly smiled, and he was no longer the illusory him: "Miss Wen really knows Pei."

  He stared at Wen Ning with dark eyes: "Then please stay in Qinghui Hall tonight, Madam. No matter what happens outside, don't take half a step."
