On December 23rd, the almanac says, magpies begin to nest.

Yongrenfang, Qingfeng Street.

A spacious carriage appeared on the street, and the driver was a young man with a dull face. It was cold today, but his clothes were not bloated, and he showed a strong and lean body.

The carriage stopped in front of a closed mansion. Deng Zai tightened the reins, turned around and said, "Young Master, we are here."

Pei Yue opened the car door and came out, followed by two girls, Ye Qi and Tao Hua.

Deng Zai quickly put the short boy next to the car, and then stretched out his arm. Pei Yue glared at him and said displeased: "Who did you learn the bad rules from?"

Deng Zai smiled honestly and said: "Young Master, I went out to inquire these days and found out that General Wu Xun and his disciples are all in such a pomp."

Pei Yue shook his head and said: "I told you a long time ago that our family doesn't like this. Now the main store has hired a few grooms. You don't have to come here to drive. Is it just for this kind of thing that I asked my husband to teach you?

?”

Deng Zai nodded in agreement, but said a little stubbornly: "Young Master, I can only rest assured if I can do these things myself."

His eyes were a little complicated, obviously remembering that time when he didn't insist on seeing each other off, Pei Yue was attacked on the official road, which almost caused a catastrophe.

Seeing his persistence, Pei Yue couldn't help but reprimand him too much. He smiled helplessly and said, "That's all, it's up to you."

He turned around and looked at the closed door of the mansion. There were four brand new gilded characters on the plaque on the gatehouse.

Zhongshanzifu.

Taohua raised her hands, took a few breaths of hot air into her palms, looked at the majestic gate in front of her, with excitement and a hint of confusion in her eyes, and murmured: "Master, is this our home?"

Pei Yue stretched out his hand to rub her hair out of habit, and said with a smile, "Yes, it's our home."

Peach Blossom's sparkling eyes were a little moist. She quickly turned her head and said softly: "That's great."

Ye Qi didn't mind the occasional intimacy between the master and servant. Today she was wearing Ruyi cloud-pattern feather gauze and a hibiscus-colored brocade fur cloak. Her eyebrows were straight and her lips were red, although she didn't dress up deliberately.

, just with a suet-colored orchid hairpin in her hair, she is already as charming as a clear water hibiscus.

Compared with the heroic style of the past, today's Ye Qi has a more feminine temperament.

She looked at the mansion, which covered a large area, and said with a faint smile: "The emperor treats you well. The specifications of this mansion are enough to be given to a marquis."

Although Wang Pingzhang's night attack on the Chen family had nothing to do with her, and she would not be as extreme as Chen Xizhi, after all, she had lived in the Hengduan Mountains for several years, and she had no good impression of Emperor Kaiping who was the instigator, so she naturally showed no awe in her words.

Pei Yue knew that with Ye Qi's cultivation level, he didn't have to worry about his words being overheard. He nodded and said, "Although a title will definitely give you a house, I didn't expect him to be so generous. However, the salary given by the court was too small. With the five hundred

If we want to support this big house with our food, our whole family will have to drink from the northwest wind."

Ye Qi smiled and said: "Perhaps I know that you are now the big owner of Xiangyun Company, and you can make a lot of money every day from your honeycomb briquette business. Naturally, you won't take this small amount of money seriously."

Pei Yue sighed softly: "You don't know how expensive firewood and rice are when you are not a business owner. Although the business of the company is very good, it is not an easy task to invest a lot of money in the future and pay dividends to the young masters."

Ye Qidao: "Send someone to Taiping Bank to withdraw my money."

Pei Yue refused without pretense, nodded and said: "I'll ask for it when I need it. The total amount of money they invested in the stock before was 300,000 taels. Excluding Gu Fan's 50,000 taels, and those used in the early stage, there are also

More than 100,000 taels should be able to support it for the time being."

Ye Qi stopped asking. To her, money was an external possession. Although she would usually say things like "There is a road at the end of the world" when joking, but since she held hands with Pei Yue several times, she has never been interested in it in her life.

The money will be given to others.

Everyone looked at it quietly for a while, and Ye Qi smiled and asked: "Since you are quite satisfied with this house, why don't you move in?"

Pei Yue lowered his voice and said, "Now is not the time."

Ye Qi stared at him curiously.

"Uncle Gu will go to the south in the next year. The waves in Beijing are high and the wind is strong. I am very eye-catching because of the briquette business. Staying in the capital will inevitably lead to countless troubles. These two years are very important to me.

, we can’t waste time on those meaningless fights, continuing to stay in Green Willow Village is the most appropriate choice.”

"That's fine. I also think it's more comfortable to live in the village."

"Let's go, it's getting late, Uncle Gu and his family are waiting for us."

When turning around to get in the car, Ye Qi smiled suddenly, looked at Pei Yue and asked, "This is Yongrenfang, very close to that house. Why don't you go and see the most talented woman in Kyoto?"

The corner of Pei Yue's mouth twitched. Of course he knew that Shen's mansion was in Yongrenfang, and it was only three streets away from this house. It only took half a stick of incense to drive there. Looking at the smile on Ye Qi's face, he

He replied with a serious face: "We didn't meet him last time, why are we meeting this time? That adult is a bit scary, and I don't really want to deal with him."

What this said is that the Silent Cloud was responsible for Li Yinzhong's hand. The latter lost his official position as the Left Governor of the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion and was driven to the South Camp as the coach. Although the coach of the Beijing Camp is an extremely prestigious military position, Li Yinzhong's predecessor was Gu Liang

Except for Li Jin and the Yanshan Guards who had already gone to the border, the other troops in the South Camp were also soldiers brought out by Gu Liang. When Pei Yue disappeared, Gu Liang's horse set foot in the Fengcheng Hou Mansion. Needless to say, the relationship between the two.

It is said that Li Pingzhong's life has been very difficult recently.

As for the eldest young master Li Zijun, he had been exiled to Guping Town in the Western Region for a long time. He should have arrived in the military town now, living a hard life in the company of a group of rude military men.

Pei Yue and Ye Qi boarded the carriage. Peach Blossom stood with her eyes wide open. She couldn't figure out what riddles these two were playing. At the same time, her heart was slightly sour. It was obvious that I was the one who came first. It was obvious that I had been with the young master since I was a child.

, why do the young master and Miss Ye have such a tacit understanding?

"Silly girl, why are you so stunned?" Pei Yue stood on the carriage and stretched out his hand to Taohua.

A sweet smile immediately bloomed on Taohua's face, and she held Pei Yue's hand and got into the car.

The carriage left Yongrenfang, bypassed Zhuquefang, where Dingguo Mansion was located, and turned to Xingyefang in the northeast.

Although he couldn't see the outside scenery from the carriage, let alone the buildings of Dingguo Mansion, Pei Yue's face was still slightly sad. Ye Qi looked at his expression and sighed softly: "I really won't go back to Dingguo Mansion."

?”

Taohua also looked at her young master with some worry.

Pei Yue thought for a while, shook his head and said, "I won't go."

Ye Qi said softly: "That eldest sister of yours is a pitiful person."

Pei Yue forced a smile, exhaled a breath and said: "Because of this, I can't go back. I just sent her biological father to Shanglin Prison, and then turned around and pretended to be a close brother in front of her. What is this? How to be a human being.

You can't be so shameless. If she hates me because of this, it's a good thing, it's better than her continuing to be in the middle."

Ye Qi looked at him more and more appreciatively and said with relief: "As long as Pei Rong doesn't die, there will still be a brother-sister relationship between you."

Pei Yue said: "I asked someone to send her a letter. I believe she can understand the difficulties I have to do. As for Pei Rong, I actually underestimated the second child. After thinking about it again, I'm afraid he would have done it long ago.

Be prepared to deal with me. Believe it or not, even if Pei Rong is uncomfortable in Shanglin Prison at the moment, it is not as painful as we imagined."

"Of course I believe you, what are you going to do next?"

"As long as I can keep him inside, Peirong is just a walking corpse to me. There are more important things waiting for me to do."
