MTL - The Fugitive White Moonlight of a Powerful Minister-Chapter 93 just a deal

  Chapter 93 It's just a deal

   "Miss Wen, is this your way of hospitality?" The voice outside the door was accompanied by a low laugh, but it didn't sound pleasant.

  Wen Ning patted Luoshuan's hand: "Women's inner courtyard is not allowed to trespass, Mr. Pei is six yuan, don't you even understand this bit of etiquette?"

   "Usually, Pei will not go to the inner courtyard if he invites him, but why not go to the inner courtyard of his fiancée?"

   "Who is your fiancee!" Wen Ning has suppressed her anger for half a month because of this matter, "It is obvious that you are taking advantage of others, you..."

"how do I?"

  Wen Ning was so angry that he didn't want to argue with him at the gate, so he turned and went into the house.

  However, she didn't want to hear the sound of light feet landing behind her. Looking back, Pei You was already standing in the courtyard.

   Almost forgot, this person is still a master of overcoming walls.

   "You..." Wen Ning frowned, knowing that Pei You couldn't be held back, she didn't go to the room, but instead walked to the gazebo in the yard.

   Sure enough, Pei You followed her and sat down at the stone table in the gazebo.

   "Why did you come to see me?" Wen Ning suppressed her depression.

  Pei You laughed lowly: "It seems to be your maid who said you were looking for me."

  Wen Ning: "..."

   "Then I have nothing to do with you, you can go." Wen Ning turned her face away.

   "Since there is nothing to do, why did you invite me to drink tea that day?"

  How dare he mention this?

Wen Ning looked over, and saw that Pei You's fair face was made even whiter by the white clothes, and the sunlight outside the pavilion was just right, making his complexion brighter, with a red mole on the bridge of his nose, which was even brighter than when he was wearing dark clothes. It looks a bit coquettish.

   "Ask knowingly." Wen Ning snorted coldly.

  She didn't believe that he couldn't guess that she asked him out because she wanted to ask him something.

  He didn't want to tell her.

  There is tea on the stone table, which was just made from the jasmine flowers in the yard this summer. Pei You turned over the teacup and twisted a few flowers in it: "Miss Wen seems to know Pei very well."

  Wen Ning's heart skipped a beat.

"But Pei knows little about Miss Wen." Pei You's complexion is bright today, but the bottom of her eyes is still dark as usual, and she slowly stares at Wen Ning's face, "From the time Pei knew the girl until half a month ago in the teahouse, You have been showing people with a mask. You and I can't help being open and honest, what do you think, just say it."

   "You really don't know what I'm thinking?" Wen Ning suppressed the tone in her heart, "Did you do it on purpose for the wine in your carriage that day?"

   "That's right." Pei You said calmly, "I see that your heart is shaking, but you still can't nod your head, just blowing the wind."

   Hair blowing? So righteous?

  Wen Ning said again: "Then the marriage is so hasty, did you use some tricks behind the scenes?"

   "Frankly speaking, yes." Pei You's eyes fell on her face, "But I don't intend to tell you."

  Wen Ning: "..."

  Just about to explode, Pei You said slowly: "Miss Wen, I always feel that you have a lot of prejudice against Pei."

  Wen Ning's five fingers curled up unconsciously, and Pei You looked at her with a little sunshine in his eyes.

  Seeing that she was silent, Pei You checked the water temperature of the teapot, picked up the teapot with downcast eyes:

   "Miss Wen, Pei thinks he hasn't done anything wrong to you since he met you. Even if he did, it was because you deliberately provoked him first."

  He poured the tea in a leisurely manner: "On the contrary, you caused me a lot of trouble, and I didn't care about you. Ms. Wen might as well tell me, why do you have such deep hostility towards me?"

  Wen Ning's heart beat two beats faster at what he said, and she blinked and said, "When did I have a prejudice against you? Where did I get hostile?"

   "Then why do you hesitate so much about the deal with me that has all benefits but no harm?" Pei You retorted almost immediately.

"You have no affection for Yan Li." He said firmly, "Pei never pretends to be a gentleman, but he doesn't bother to do the thing of beating mandarin ducks. Even if it's Shen Jin, who was in marriage with you before, Pei can congratulate you The two of you have been in love for a long time, and you have been in love for a hundred years, no kind of deal can find you."

   "But you know that the benefits of marrying into the Duke's mansion are a hundred times greater than those of marrying into the Yan family, but you still hesitate to move forward. Why?" Pei You stared at her with dark eyes, "What are you afraid of?"

   This is not a question, but an affirmative sentence.

  Wen Ning's heart beat two beats faster.

  Pei You was so thoughtful that she saw through her deepest secret emotions.

  Of course she was afraid. Once bitten by a snake, she was afraid of well ropes for ten years. How could she accept marrying him so calmly?

  Wen Ning grabbed the sachet by her side, reminding herself to be careful to expose more flaws.

  Pei You just poured her scented tea, pushed it to her, she picked it up, pretended to drink tea, and took a sip.

   "You are eager to know why the marriage is progressing so quickly, but you are just... worried that I am plotting against you?"

   "Then did you plot against me?" Wen Ning asked directly.

   "Is there anything in you worth my calculation?"

   "Then why is the marriage so rushed? Do you really plan to marry me on July 18?"

  Pei You smiled very lightly, and looked over with a very light eyebrow: "Miss Wen, it's just a deal."

"You have what you want, and I have what I need. The date is set on July 18. Naturally, it is because this day is the most convenient, the most trouble-free, and the most beneficial for you and me. Why do you bother with the process and reasons behind it? You Just know that what you deserve will be given to you. The sooner it starts, the sooner it will end, right?"

  Wen Ning held the teacup, the aroma of jasmine blossomed on her lips and tongue.

   After all, it is the number one scholar who can compete with the Confucian scholars in the Golden Luan Palace, but Wen Ning actually told him to say that it is irrefutable, and on the contrary, it seems... that she is really making trouble for no reason.

  She did have prejudice and hostility towards Pei You, and this prejudice and hostility caused her to distrust him a lot.

  And this prejudice and hostility comes from what Pei You did to her in the previous life. Strictly speaking, it really has nothing to do with this Pei You in front of her.

  She blinked: "Then I am the person involved, so I must have the right to know?"

   "Miss Wen, sometimes knowing too much is not a good thing." Pei You didn't give in, took a sip of tea and said, "You just need to know that it doesn't hurt your ultimate interests."

   "So when I enter the government, I just live my own life and don't care about the rest, right?"

"yes."

  Wen stared at Pei You.

  She is different from Pei You, in such a bright sun, her eyes are brown, clear and clear, like a shallow stream in summer.

  Pei You also looked at her.

  The black eyes are always airtight, making it difficult for people to see clearly and guess clearly.

   "Pei You, you will keep your promise, won't you?"

   "Pei does not claim to be a gentleman, but he is not a villain who crosses rivers and destroys bridges."

  At noon in mid-June, it wasn't too hot, but it wasn't cool either. The lively voices of people in the outer courtyard came through the lush trees and layers of walls, like another world.

   The two people sitting in the gazebo looked at each other for a moment, and it seemed like a long time had passed.

   As the breeze blew, the sleeves of the two fluttered, and Xia Chan chirped a few times.

  Wen Ning withdrew her eyes, stood up, and raised her brows lightly: "Then let's go, my fiancé, it's time to watch the ceremony."

  Pei You narrowed her eyes, and there was a chuckle on the corner of her lips, which looked soft under the sun: "Let's go, my fiancee."

-

  Wen Lan and He Luan's wedding was lively and smooth. Wen Ning secretly got red eyes when she watched Wen Lan carefully lead He Luan into the bridal chamber.

  In the previous life, Wen Lan died in a foreign land, and He Luan passed away in an epidemic next autumn.

  In this life, they will have a different ending.

  It was nearly Xu time when the guests dispersed.

  Probably because Pei You was by her side, Wen Ning was not blatantly scrutinized and discussed by so many people, but instead heard a few voices saying "Pei Shizi and Wen's girl are really a match for each other".

  He Luan walked through the door, and Wen's residence instantly became more alive.

  Wen Lan didn't say much, and rushed home every day when she was off duty, wishing she could stick with He Luan all the time. As for Wen Qi, because of Wen Tingchun's confession, he may have to prepare a dowry for Wen Ning recently, and he will still live at home for the time being.

  Wen Ning also felt that the life at home was suddenly enriched, He Luan was Wen Lan's at night, and hers during the day.

  He Luan looks deserted on the outside, but she has a very good temper, but she doesn't talk much, and only listens to Wen Ning whispering in her ear.

  Three days after He Luan entered the door, the Duke's Mansion sent a betrothal gift.

   That day caused another commotion in the capital.

  After all, the dowry of the Duke's Mansion is spectacular, and the marriage of the two is full of drama, almost everyone knows about it.

  Wen Ning also went to look at it that night, and her first reaction was...

   In the future, the dowry will not be refunded, right?

  cough…

   On the second day after the dowry gift was delivered, the matchmaker came to the door and said that a date had been chosen, and that next year he would be lonely and not suitable for marriage. The best day of this year would be the eighteenth day of the next month.

  Although a little hasty, Wen Tingchun nodded in agreement.

  Wen Ning knew that the meeting would be on July 18th, so there was nothing unexpected. She only felt that Pei You, a person who takes one step counts as a hundred steps, planned everything early.

   But he can still make everything go according to his plan.

   After accepting the betrothal gift and setting a date, the next step is to prepare the dowry for Wen Ning non-stop.

  Wen Tingchun didn't allow her to intervene, and once again assumed the role of father and mother. Wen Lan was newly married, so he only called Wen Qi to help.

  Of course, Wen Ning sent out all the people in the yard to help, and the most capable Linglan was naturally indispensable.

  I thought she would just wait leisurely until July 18 to "marry". A few days after the dowry was delivered, Pei You rushed into her yard again.

  This person is probably addicted to climbing over the wall, knocking on her window at night.

  Fortunately, only Chun Xing, who was a bit confused, was left in the yard, and she asked her to help Linglan with a few perfunctory words, leaving only her and Pei You in Xiangti Garden.

  She didn't want him to enter her boudoir, so the two of them were in the pavilion last time.

   But last time it was noon, this time it was night.

   "Don't blame me for not reminding you, you seem to be very busy?" He sat under the moonlight, elegant and elegant, with picturesque eyes.

  Wen Ning wants to say that she doesn't need to be on duty. These days, Wen Tingchun is afraid that she will go out and cause some trouble that will damage the reputation of the Duke's Mansion, so she wished that Xiangti Garden would not let her out.

  Pei You said again: "I looked at the wedding dress worn by my sister-in-law that day, should I embroider it myself?"

  He entered the scene quite quickly, and "Sister-in-law" was called out.

  Wen Ning laughed dryly: "The wedding dress has to be embroidered at least a year and a half in advance, which is too embarrassing for me."

   "The hijab can always be embroidered?"

   I don't want to embroider.

…

   "It's not impossible not to embroider." Pei You also smiled, "Deduct one thousand taels of silver."

   "Why?!"

   "The wife of the eldest son of the Duke's Mansion can't even embroider a decent hijab, which will damage the reputation of our Duke's Mansion, so of course it has to be confiscated."

  Wen Ning: "..."

  Embroidery!

   She embroiders!

   It’s a deal, one thousand taels per hijab, it’s worth it!

  With something to do at hand, the time passed quickly again, and soon, the days entered July.
