Yan Qinglian, as the sister of Yan Mingzhu, actually instigated others to harm her sister secretly.
Pei Duqin lowered his eyes and said, "I understand."
After saying that, Pei Duqin turned around and was about to leave. Pei Ninghe held his arm and refused to let go, crying: "Second brother, I swear every word I just said is true. Please take me away quickly.
, I don’t want to stay any longer!”
But there was no warmth in Pei Duqin's eyes. On the contrary, he felt that the person in front of him was crying and making noise, which made him upset.
Are all women as stupid and timid as his third sister? No, there is one person who is completely different.
Looking down at Pei Ninghe, Pei Duqin's mind reflected Yan Mingzhu's lively and bold face. Even with the ugly birthmark on her face, it could not hide her chic and proud look.
"Second brother?"
Pei Ninghe saw Pei Duqin staring at her face in confusion and called him again.
Suddenly coming back to his senses, Pei Duqin forcibly pulled his hand out of Pei Ninghe's hand, "When you were harming others, why didn't you expect that there would be results like today?
This matter must be personally investigated by His Highness the King of the North. I can no longer take you away with just a few words. You just stay here and don’t cause any more trouble, otherwise even the Pei family won’t be able to save you."
How dare Pei Ninghe say anything more? As long as Pei Duqin can think of a way to get her out of Jingzhao Mansion, she can do whatever she wants.
After coming out of Jingzhao Mansion, Pei Duqin went directly to Baekje Hall.
When he walked into the shop, Pei Duqin saw Yan Mingzhu standing in front of the counter almost at a glance.
Today she wore a pink cardigan with embroidered pear patterns, a white embroidered tube top and a long purple skirt. She tied a simple bow around her waist, and her hair was only decorated with a silver moon tassel hairpin.
, the whole person looks fresh and elegant.
One hand is holding a wolf hair, the other hand is pressing on a piece of rice paper, and he is writing something.
Yan Mingzhu just stood there, saying nothing, but attracting attention for no reason, making people unable to take their eyes away.
Pei Duqin couldn't help but wonder, why hadn't he noticed before that his former sister-in-law had such an otherworldly temperament?
With this thought in his mind, Pei Duqin stopped and his voice softened a little when he spoke: "Miss Yan San."
When Yan Mingzhu heard Pei Duqin's voice, she didn't stop writing in her hand. She didn't even raise her eyelids. She just said lightly: "Second Young Master Pei moves very quickly. He seems to feel sorry for his sister, Liu Xiang."
, give him the bill."
Before Pei Duqin could react, Liu Xiang had already handed a bill to him.
"Second Young Master Pei, Aunt Wang and Pei Ninghe from your mansion take some precious medicinal materials from Baekje Hall almost every day, such as ginseng, deer antlers and the like, and they have always been my girl's mother-in-law.
Pay a penny.
In the past six months, the medicinal materials alone have been converted into almost three hundred taels, plus purchase fees, labor costs and so on. Seeing that Mr. Pei has been a relative of my girl for half a year, I will give you a salary.
For a discount, just pay five hundred taels."
Before Pei Duqin could speak, the attendant Maolin's eyes almost dropped and he exclaimed: "Five hundred taels? Why don't you go and rob?"
"The bill is written very clearly in black and white. If Mr. Pei feels that we are blackmailing you, you can go out and turn right to report it to the official, so that you can leave without sending it away."
Maolin was so angry at Liu Xiang's unceremonious attitude, "You..."
Before he could reply, Pei Duqin raised his hand and said, "Miss Yan San, if I pay these five hundred taels, can today's matter end here?"
Yan Mingzhu stopped writing and raised her eyes to look at him, "Second Master Pei, please clarify something. These five hundred taels are not spent to eliminate disasters, but for your Pei family to eat in my medicine shop.
It was caused by the King's meal, and you should have paid it back."
Pei Duqin said in a nice voice: "Miss Yan San, it is indeed my sister-in-law's fault for hiring someone to cause trouble today. As long as Miss Yan San is willing to let go, I will take her to personally apologize to the girl.
He'er, like Miss Yan San, is still a girl waiting to be married. If she stays in Jingzhao Mansion for a day, her reputation will be seriously affected. I hope Miss Yan San can show her favor. I promise that she will not do it in the future.
Let her appear in front of the girl again."
Hearing this, Yan Mingzhu suddenly smiled, but the smile did not reach her eyes, "Second Young Master Pei, when this good sister in your eyes hired people to make trouble, did you ever consider that if she really called her...
If someone makes a big deal out of things, what will happen to me as the owner of a drug store?
If human lives are involved, at least this drug store will be closed down, or at worst, it will be jailed. If a lonely person like me is caught in prison, no good brother will be willing to run for me.
, who can I turn to for my ruined reputation?"
Yan Mingzhu described it clearly, her voice was clear and calm, but every word she said made people feel extremely distressed.
Everyone knows that the three girls from the Earl's Palace of Pingchang lost their mother at birth and grew up in the Earl's Palace without the love of their mother or father.
She was also married into the Pei family on behalf of her, and suffered all the contempt and humiliation from the Pei family.
Pei Duqin's upper and lower lips moved together, causing Yan Mingzhu to raise his hand. But when Pei Ninghe was trying to harm her, did he ever think of raising his hand?
When Pei Duqin was stunned and speechless, Yan Mingzhu added the second half of the sentence slowly: "Poor people must be hateful, and Pei Ninghe deserves it.
Her crime will be determined by the government. As for what the consequences will be for her, it has nothing to do with me. That's it. I'm very busy. Second Master Pei, please pay off the bill quickly. Don't stand here blocking my business."
Maolin followed Pei Duqin, and had he never seen anyone talking to his young master like this?
After all, his young master is the only legitimate son of the Pei family, and he is also the nephew of Queen Pei. Everyone who meets him has to give him face.
"You are a girl, how can you act like a cunning woman? My young master tries to persuade you with good words, but you talk harshly to me. No wonder even the eldest young master looks down on you..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Pei Duqin: "Maolin, shut up."
Maolin was still aggrieved for him: "Master, she is so rude to you, why do you have to be so humble to her?"
Pei Duqin frowned and said in a deep voice: "Our Pei family did something wrong first. You should go back home quickly and get the banknote."
Maolin was unwilling to give in and wanted to say something, but Pei Duqin glared at him and he could only run back to get the banknote.
During this gap, Pei Duqin saw clearly that Yan Mingzhu was crouching in front of the counter writing a recruitment notice, which asked for a shopkeeper and a drug boy.
He asked curiously: "We only want shopkeepers and medicine boys, but not doctors?"
