Chapter 189 Epiphany
Pei Yi couldn't agree more, she frowned and said, "I think you're pretty good, second brother."
Pei Xuan smiled perkyly, and said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "I'm not good. Any girl who marries me will be in great trouble."
Pei Yi glanced at the plates of delicious dishes that the second brother was holding, and said disapprovingly: "No way. Is there any man who can cook nowadays, the second brother is a treasure."
Pei Xuanting shook his head, and walked to the side room with the dishes, while earnestly said: "If you can cook and call him a good man, then Dad is definitely a peerless good man. Let me tell you, among the nobles in Kyoto, you will never find a better man." Daddy is a man who can cook."
Pei Yi was dumbfounded, and asked in surprise: "Really? Daddy can also cook?"
Pei Xuan smiled and said: "It's not all because of you. When Auntie was pregnant with you, she had a very poor appetite and couldn't eat anything. Father saw Auntie getting thinner and became anxious, so he simply thought about Auntie's taste. Let's cook. In the end, Mommy won't eat anyone's cooking except daddy's."
Pei Yi said enviously: "I am so happy to be married to Dad."
Pei Xuanting gave her a very disapproving look, and said bitterly: "Where are you happy? Father is not a good man either. Don't even think about it, are there still fewer concubines in our father's backyard? If he likes A Niang, that won't delay him at all, and he will like one whenever he sees one, and concubine Ji will accept one after another."
Pei Yi's mood became complicated, but after all, she didn't want to say what her father said, so she pursed her lips and fell silent.
Pei Xuanting was carrying vegetables and walking in Chaoshou verandah, and said unhurriedly: "Fanyin, if you believe me, you can't even imagine how bad men are. Don't even mention whether you marry or not. If you fall in love with a man Jun, you just put him in the backyard. With me, elder brother, and father watching over for you, your husbands will not dare to mess around."
"That's not necessarily true." Pei Yi said disapprovingly, "Anyone who wants to mess around, even if you look at him, he will still mess around. Besides, if a man is really capable, who would want to marry him?"
The brothers and sisters had already entered the wing room while talking.
Pei Xuanting put the tray on the big round table, put the dishes inside on the table one by one, shook his head and said with a smile: "If you don't marry, what do you want him to do? My girl from the Pei family is not short of money or power, Having a husband is just icing on the cake, so why don't you still consider him necessary?"
Pei Yi was both moved and surprised.
She never thought that she could hear these words from her second brother, an ancient man. I'm afraid even a modern man doesn't have the same thoughts as her second brother.
Hey, with such a brother who pampers her unconditionally and without a bottom line, she is afraid that she will be spoiled more and more arrogantly.
Tasting a bite of the dish, Pei Yi felt extremely happy, and boasted with a smile: "It's delicious, second brother, your cooking skills are really good!"
Pei Xuanting picked up the food and took a bite, raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "The other day you coax daddy to cook you a meal, that's good."
After the brothers and sisters finished eating, the servants came in to clean up the dishes.
Out of the door, the boys couldn't help whispering: "The second master is too powerful. If he is willing to accept me as a book boy, I will definitely run away with him immediately."
The style of Longyang prevailed in the noble circles of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Usually, the book boys who accompany a nobleman are not just as simple as book boys, but a kind of tacit relationship.
"Hey, don't take pictures of yourself?" Another boy teased, "Besides, I don't think the second master is interested in men."
"Hey..." Boy B sighed, and said with great regret, "Second master can cook. Such a good man, why doesn't he like men?"
Qi Sha came back from the outside, and happened to hear a group of servants expressing their emotions.
He was surprised, stepped forward and asked, "Can the second master cook?"
Qi Kill is Pei Yi's personal bodyguard, and he has a very high status among the servants.
The boys saluted quickly when they saw him.
Some bold and gossipy ones took the initiative to explain: "Second Master is very good at cooking. Just now, Second Master told the kitchen that during the time when Third Master was preparing for the scientific examination, Third Master's three meals a day It's all done by the second master himself."
After he was silent for a while, he seemed to be hit with a stick on the spot, and he suddenly realized a little bit.
Er Ye is an aristocrat who can cook, why can't he cook?
If the third master's three meals a day are all taken care of by himself...
Qi Sha thought of this, and somehow an indescribable sweetness came into his heart.
He has been eating at the table with the third master for so long, and he knows the taste of the third master like the back of his hand.
If only I could learn from the kitchen...
The more Qisha thought about it, the more he felt that it was feasible, and his mood became brighter.
"Hey, why are you stuck here?"
Hearing this question, Qi Sha suddenly woke up, only to see the second master of the Pei family walking out of the wing room at some point.
"Second Master." Qi Sha hastily bowed and saluted, feeling a little annoyed.
I am a dead man, so my vigilance should be high.
But just now, he fantasized about cooking for the third master, but he didn't even notice the surrounding situation.
If an assassin attacked just now, his reaction would definitely be a bit slower.
This is really too fatal and should not be done.
"Hurry up and go in." Pei Xuanting patted Qisha on the shoulder, lowered his voice and said with a smirk, "Remember to find the third master to finish that book quickly. If you are working in front of my third brother, if you don't know big characters, it will affect you ah."
Qi Sha blushed slightly, lowered his head and said, "Got it."
He walked quickly into the wing room, and when he looked up, he saw his third master taking a walk in the house to digest food.
"Third Master." Qisha saluted.
Pei Yi nodded slightly, but did not express anything else.
At noon today, Qi Sha suddenly told her that he wanted to go out of the house, and hoped for her permission.
Pei Yi didn't think too much about it, the main reason was that the boss wanted to do something, and it would be useless for her to think too much, so she agreed directly.
At this moment, Qisha obviously came back after finishing his work.
"Third Master, today I saw that the mansion of County Magistrate Li was sealed up by the government." Qi Sha's tone was light, but inexplicably there was a taste of gloating, "When County Magistrate Li was escorted out of the mansion, He kept clamoring and saying that he was wronged."
Pei Yi smiled and said: "This kind of person just doesn't cry when he sees the coffin."
Qi Sha sneaked a glance at his third master, remained silent and did not speak any more, standing aside as usual.
Pei Yi didn't care, and just walked on her own.
After walking for a while, she sat down and read a book.
Now that the scientific examination is coming, even though the system has added her Poetry and Song Fu skills to the proficient rank, she still can't slack off.
But…
Perceived that You kept glancing at her, Pei Yi couldn't read the book at ease.
