MTL - The Fugitive White Moonlight of a Powerful Minister-Chapter 161 Tight
Chapter 161 Tight hook
Everyone noticed very keenly that there was suddenly a small follower beside the desolate Mr. Pei.
The little follower is thin and small, and there will be a lot of things when he comes.
When your lord rides in a carriage, he closes the curtains, when your lord sits down, he pours tea, when your lord eats, he serves vegetables, and when someone looks at him, he hides behind your lord, looking very familiar with him.
If it weren't for someone in the know who knew that this little servant was actually a small drug dealer who was locked up a while ago, everyone would have almost thought that this was the personal servant of the adults.
The people of Wuxi have complicated feelings for this small drug dealer.
The reason why the epidemic has been delayed for so long is that there are drug dealers doing evil things, driving up drug prices, and hyping "congshu". A type of thing?
But at that time, the cart of medicinal materials did save many people's lives, and the small drug dealer didn't really make any money...
The waiter was released, and when everyone looked at him, he was a thin, white, white and tender young man, and it was even harder to blame him.
I took the risk to come to Wuxi, but I didn’t earn any money, and I have to go back to Beijing for trial, tsk tsk, it’s so pitiful.
Fortunately, Mr. Pei gave him a chance to pay off his merits and make him follow behind as a handyman. If he did well, he might be able to avoid punishment after returning to Beijing.
Pei You actually didn't suggest that Wen Ning go out.
He wanted her to stay at the official post. The matter in Wuxi was about to be finished, and then he could just go back to Beijing with him.
Where can Wen Ning stay?
She stayed in that wing room alone for more than a month, and now she felt a little creepy when she saw that the window was closed.
She wants to go out, go out to see Wuxi's current appearance, go out to chat with people, talk, and... It's interesting to be by Pei You's side.
At this moment, Pei You is in the county office.
Wuxi, as one of the towns where the epidemic first spread, suffered the most severe losses. In particular, when it first spread, it was spring sowing, which delayed a spring. Many people not only lost their families, but their livelihoods in the next year were also a problem.
The imperial court appropriated a lot of money to sympathize with the victims and help restore order in Wuxi.
Wen Ning looked at Pei You and the county magistrate discussing the name, and actually mentioned how to use the money. No wonder the little girls who guarded her back then cried out when they mentioned "Master Pei".
He discusses serious matters, as if a real gentleman is like water, as elegant as a lotus, but with an innate coercion, every word and action is natural.
Hook people tightly.
She also went to the government office with him when she was in Qiantang, why didn't she feel that way at the time?
The few people were not discussing seriously, but were chatting when they were on duty. Halfway through the conversation, someone brought a plate of lavender pastries. Pei You glanced at it, took a piece very naturally, and handed it to him just poured it. Tea finishers.
Wen Ning was taken aback.
The magistrate who was talking opposite was taken aback for a moment.
Wen Lan, who was sitting on the side, was also taken aback for a moment.
Enough is enough for you two! One was reluctant to stay in the official post, and the other said "it's not right" to change back into women's clothes, insisting on dressing up like a man to conceal the fact that they are tired of being together...
Fun?
Wen Lan coughed forcefully.
Wen Ning glared at him, no need to cough so obviously...
"I didn't have lunch, thank you for your compassion." He took the pastry and kicked Pei You's chair without a trace.
what to do?
Didn't it mean that for the time being, no one can know that her wife, the eldest son, has come to Wuxi, and she is also the small drug dealer who delivered the medicine?
Pei You lowered his eyes calmly, and took a sip of tea.
He didn't mean it.
Wuxi is rich in a kind of purple taro, which has a very different taste from the taro in Beijing. It smells strange and has a sweet and glutinous taste.
This pastry was made of that taro, and when he saw it, he subconsciously took a piece for her.
The county magistrate has a good eye, he is only a seventh-rank official, how can he take care of the affairs of his son? Just act as if you didn't see anything, and continue to talk about the next thing.
On the carriage back home, Wen Lan inevitably babbled again.
He really can't accept his delicate and soft sister, who doesn't want to be a good Mrs. Shizi, but pretends to be a servant serving tea, pouring water and serving vegetables, and seems...very skilled?
Is this how Pei You bullied his sister in Jiangnan?
"Brother, sister-in-law has returned to the capital, why are you still here?" Wen Ning was ringing in his ears.
Don't you want to stay here to help your husband? !
Before Wen Lan could express his dissatisfaction in the future, Pei You, who had been silent all this time, put down the scroll in his hand, and took Wen Ning's hand: "Are the pastries delicious?"
Wen Ning smiled sweetly: "It's delicious."
Wen Lan: "..."
"Stop!" Go straight out of the carriage.
You two are so tired!
He can't control it anymore, when he returns to Beijing, let Daddy scold you!
Pei You raised his eyelids to look at Wen Lan who had lifted the curtain of the car, and as soon as he disappeared, he took Wen Ning into his arms.
"Are you tired today?" Pei You played with her soft fingers.
Wen Ning was too hot, so she didn't lean into Pei You's arms, but leaned against his side and leaned on his shoulder: "I'm not tired. It's quite interesting to hear you guys discuss the uses of money."
"I can go back to Beijing after I finish my work these few days." Pei You rubbed her palms, "Tomorrow will you take a day off at the official post?"
Wen Ning blinked: "Okay..."
She knew that she had affected Pei You's mind today, and Pei You didn't want her to be by his side anymore.
"The journey back to Beijing is hard, you should take a good rest these few days."
Pei You pinched her chin with two fingers, Wen Ning knew what he was going to do, kissed him on the lips first, jumped off the couch with a smile, ran to sit opposite the tea table, and opened the car window a crack .
The evening wind immediately blew into the carriage, bringing with it the scorching heat of summer, which made Wen Ning's cheeks slightly flushed.
My heart is beating thumpingly, but it is very light, and everything I do is like being wrapped in honey. No matter how happy I look, no matter how I stay together, I don’t get bored.
Is this what it feels like to be in love with each other?
Why haven't I felt this way in my previous life?
Sitting on the couch, Pei You lightly touched the corners of his lips with two fingers, raised his eyebrows slightly, said nothing, picked up the scroll that he had just put down, but he hadn't read the contents of the scroll, so he couldn't help but glance at the book lying on the car. The little girl by the window.
Seeing her pink complexion, with a smile on her brows and eyes, she withdrew her eyes and quietly raised the corners of her lips.
-
After agreeing to rest at the official post, Wen Ning honestly didn't go out.
But now she doesn't have to stay in the room and stay at home, and the official post is not as deserted as before.
Most of the officials and doctors sent by the imperial court have withdrawn to the capital, leaving only a few that Pei You thinks are useful, such as Wen Lan.
Xie Jiajun who came with Pei You still stayed here, especially the first group of elites who followed, almost none of them left.
But the matter in Wuxi is coming to an end, and they don't actually have any official business in their hands, so they are like her, waiting in the official post for Pei You to finish the matter at hand and return to Beijing.
A group of soldiers were together, and the official post was very lively. In the morning, some people practice martial arts, and in the afternoon, some people dance with knives and guns.
Wen Ning really had enough of staying in the wing room, so she went down to the courtyard and sat on the side rail to watch the group of people "fight and kill".
"Small drug dealer, I'm going back to Beijing soon, are you afraid?" After the epidemic, Xie Jiajun and his group finally stopped turning a blind eye to her, and some even came to talk to her and make fun of her.
Of course not.
Wen Ning thought so in her heart, but nodded repeatedly on her face.
Seeing her pitiful appearance, the man slapped the ground and laughed loudly: "Why don't you enter the military camp and redeem your sins?! Look at your small body, you can find a handsome wife after training in the military camp, otherwise Who dares to marry you?"
Thanks, I have a wife now.
Wen Ning moved aside, not wanting to talk to anyone about this, so she pointed to the courtyard and asked, "What do you think they are arguing about?"
Several people in the atrium were playing with guns, but somehow they got into an argument.
"You are wrong! I saw General Xie playing it with my own eyes. It was not like you! Look at this gun, it should be held like this..."
"You're so **** wrong, I was taught by General Xie himself!"
"Stop bragging! The Xie family gun is only passed on to the family members. How could the little general teach you? Go live your big dream!"
The man squatting beside Wen Ning said: "Who are they comparing with the real Xie family gun? It's a pity that they have to compete every other time..."
The man looked more serious, and sighed: "Little General Xie is long gone, who knows what the real Xie family gun should look like?"
Wen Ning held her chin, when Xie Nanci died in battle, she was only two or three years old, so naturally she was not deeply impressed by his prestige.
It’s just that Xie Jiajun was brought out by him. More than ten years have passed, and he still can’t forget him.
After the people in the atrium had quarreled, they began to compete again. Wen Ning actually couldn't understand it, but it was very lively here, so she followed along to watch.
Fortunately, Pei You came back early today, before the application time, Wen Ning watched him walk into the official post with Wen Lan.
He seemed certain that she would be in the atrium, and as soon as she entered the courtyard, her dark eyes would patrol while walking. Wen Ning suddenly became playful, but she lowered half her head so that he would not see her.
Pei You didn't see her, so she didn't show any other expression, but walked faster, probably planning to go to the wing.
Wen Ning crouched under the railing with a smile on her face, and when she saw him getting closer, almost one step away, she stood up abruptly: "Lord Pei!"
She originally wanted to scare Pei You, but she didn't want her to finish her sentence, so she heard a "swoosh"—
"careful!"
Pei You's complexion changed, and he yanked her to the side.
Out of the corner of her eye, Wen Ning saw a long gun coming towards her. Pei You raised her hand and caught the gun directly.
The lively atrium suddenly fell silent.
It was originally a few people playing around, and others were watching. No one expected that someone would accidentally throw the gun out. And in that seemingly empty corner, a figure suddenly appeared, but luckily the gun was intercepted by Mr. Pei.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but seeing Mr. Pei's expression, they couldn't let it go.
Master Pei, who used to look calm, now stared at the atrium with condensed brows and eyes, as if he was going to be angry and punished in the next moment.
Pei You was indeed furious. If he hadn't taken a quick step, the spear would have pierced Wen Ning's head.
His back was covered in cold sweat.
Wen Ning saw his gloomy expression, then glanced at the crowd who were too intimidated by him, and quietly pulled down his sleeves.
She is just a guilty "small drug dealer", he shouldn't get angry because of her abnormality here.
Pei You did not restrain the coldness between his brows, but pursed his thin lips, turned his right hand over, and made another "咻"—
The spear fell steadily back into the gun rack.
In the evening, the official post was so silent that there was no sound of breathing.
