Although I can't recognize the Ming family yet, it would be good to start contacting them as friends, so Yan Mingzhu nodded in agreement.
After the banquet, without Yan Mingzhu going over, Pei Duqin took the initiative to come over and apologized first: "Miss Yan, we were at the banquet just now. It was He'er who made the mistake first. I apologize to you on her behalf."
Yan Mingzhu gave him a salty look, "I received your apology, but I don't accept it. What Pei Ninghe did to me was not just verbal abuse. But if she kowtows in front of me and admits her mistake, until
I broke my head and I can consider whether to forgive her."
The other party's words seemed a bit aggressive in Pei Duqin's ears. He frowned and said, "Miss Yan San, why are you so stubborn? Although you were in the limelight at the banquet today and won the favor of His Highness King Dingbei.
of praise.
But while you were in the limelight, you shot dozens of white pigeons to death. It is really too cruel to exchange the lives of pigeons for the praise of others."
To say that Pei Duqin is a scholar, he clearly wants to scold Yan Mingzhu for being cruel and ruthless, but he does not scold Yan Mingzhu directly, but instead sarcastically sarcastically criticizes him.
Mingyu saw that this person dared to bully her new good friend, and just as she was about to refute, a voice sounded out ahead of her: "Miss Yan!"
Hearing the sound and looking over, he saw Feiyu carrying a large birdcage and striding towards this direction.
Seeing that it was Feiyu, Yan Mingzhu smiled and asked, "Do you have something important to do, Feiyu guard?"
"It's not an important matter, but His Highness said that these white pigeons have cooperated with Miss Yan's wonderful performance, so they belong to you, Miss Yan. You can take them back and raise them for a few days, and you can also make soup to nourish your skin!"
Pei Duqin took a closer look and found that the white pigeons in the birdcage were all alive and kicking. He couldn't help but wonder: "How can these pigeons still be alive? Weren't they shot down directly?"
Feiyu looked at him like an idiot, "Before Miss Yan shot the arrow, she wanted a blunt arrow. If she shoots the white pigeon, it will only make it fall from the sky, and she will not actually shoot the pigeon."
Damn it, you can’t even see it in such an obvious place, so you’re not blind, right?”
Pfft, Mingyu laughed openly at first.
For a moment, the expression on Pei Duqin's face was a little ugly, because just now, he had just called Yan Mingzhu cruel, but when he turned around, he was slapped in the face, and he couldn't have been too fast.
But soon, Pei Duqin took the initiative to admit his mistake: "I didn't understand the situation and misunderstood Miss Yan San. I'm really sorry. By the way, Miss Yan San, your dowry is all in the carriage outside the house. If you want to count it,
…”
Before she finished speaking, Yan Mingzhu interrupted directly: "Of course we have to do an inventory. After all, I don't trust your Pei family's style."
Pei Duqin knew that he was wrong and did not object.
Mingyu also stretched out his hand and said: "Zhuzhu, let me help you count them together!"
At first, the Yongyi Hou Mansion was afraid that Yan Mingzhu would be wronged if she married into the Pei family, so after that, they prepared ten boxes of gold, silver and jewelry and carried them all to the Pei family.
It took three large carriages to bring these ten boxes of dowry. All the carriages were parked in the alley opposite the princess's mansion.
After Yan Mingzhu passed by, she ordered people to take all the boxes out of the car and she counted them in person.
Opening one of the boxes, Yan Mingzhu picked up a pearl necklace, looked at it for a few times, rummaged through the box again, then straightened up and looked at Pei Duqin.
"Trying to use shoddy goods to replace my box of valuable treasures with a bunch of worthless jewelry. Is this what your Pei family calls returning everything in full?"
Pei Duqin was stunned for a moment, frowned and said: "The gold, silver and jewelry in the box have all been counted, and everything is correct. How can you say that the inferior ones are passed off as good ones?"
Yan Mingzhu sneered and didn't say much nonsense. She just picked up a pearl necklace and threw it at him.
After Pei Duqin caught it, he looked carefully and saw a layer of frost on his face. "This pearl is fake. What's going on?"
Mao Lin, the personal attendant, was also confused, "Master, these dowries are all arranged by Aunt Wang. Could it be Aunt Wang..."
Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Pei also came out of the eldest princess's mansion, and she saw Pei Duqin and the others opposite, apparently returning the dowry.
Pei Ninghe saw that Yan Mingzhu was going to take back the ten boxes of dowry. Although most of them were fakes, she was still very unhappy.
Deliberately whispering in Mrs. Pei's ear: "Mom, Yan Mingzhu took the dowry but didn't get out. Instead, she stayed so close to her second brother. Could it be that she regretted it and wanted to seduce him again after being divorced by her eldest brother, right?
Yan Mingzhu is a little bitch with a lot of tricks. The second brother has always kept himself clean. If he is confused by her..."
Mrs. Pei gave her a cold look and interrupted her directly: "How can Qin'er like a woman that even the elders look down on? Put away your little thoughts and don't think that I don't know what you want.
do what."
With Pei Ninghe's little moral integrity, how could he possibly play tricks with her if he had all his thoughts on his face?
Pei Ninghe's smile froze, and she wished Mrs. Pei would die quickly. On the surface, she responded with a low eyebrow, "Mother, how dare He'er have other thoughts? He'er is just worried about his second brother."
Just at this moment, Pei Duqin turned his head and looked over, his eyes falling on Pei Ninghe.
For some reason, Pei Ninghe had a bad premonition.
The next second, I heard Pei Duqin say: "He'er, come here."
Pei Ninghe really didn't want to go there, because Yan Mingzhu was standing there. Now she saw that Yan Mingzhu was still a little bit numb, and she felt that the burning feeling on her face had not gone away.
But she didn't dare to disobey Pei Duqin, so she could only walk over reluctantly.
He put on a smile and said, "Second brother, what are you calling me for?"
"Have you all put back all the gold and silver jewelry in the treasure chest? Have you mixed it with fakes in an attempt to pass it off as inferior?"
Pei Ninghe's heart skipped a beat, it's over, why was he discovered so quickly!
Yan Mingzhu, this bitch, actually counted the dowry in front of her. What a despicable and shameless person!
If I had known this would happen, she would not come to today's banquet. What should I do now?
Pei Ninghe was panicking and tried her best to control the expression on her face, "Second brother, you... what are you talking about? How could I do such a thing? We have returned Yan Mingzhu's things, how could it be possible?
There are fakes.
She must have done something to try to blackmail our Pei family, second brother, you must not be fooled by her!"
When Pei Duqin saw Pei Ninghe's expression, he knew she was lying.
But before he could speak, Yan Mingzhu walked up to Pei Ninghe in a few steps.
The sudden approaching distance made Pei Ninghe tremble. Almost out of instinct, he raised his hand to cover his face, "Yan Mingzhu, what do you want to do..."
