Before he finished speaking, Qin Qingdong pointed at Pei An and looked at Xu Lingbai.
Regardless of Xu Lingbai's face, which was red as if he was drunk, he said, "Lingbai, why are you shy? It's the couple who are too presumptuous!"
"Xi Hui——"
Pei An wanted to punch him, but Qin Er jumped half a step away and refused to give in, "If you were just playing in the water, why is your outer robe dry but your underwear wet!"
Swish-!
Pei An's face and body were all hot at this moment. He wanted to say something but stopped himself. He was really at fault. Qin Qingdong snorted and laughed, "You are speechless now! Your wife only uses the medicinal fragrance pills from Doctor Sun's house. The fragrance is unique in the whole capital. I smelled it when you walked in!"
"Okay, okay, let's go for a walk outside."
Pei An blushed and changed the subject.
Qin Qingdong still pursued closely, "You have a sweet wife, but have you ever thought that Ling Bai and I are still single? You two - you really are..."
"Second Young Master, Second Young Master!"
Xu Lingbai quickly stood up, stood between the two of them, and turned to look at Pei An, "Silang, go change into some clean clothes, don't catch a cold."
"Okay, cousin and Xihui, wait a moment, I'll be back soon."
After Pei An left, Qin Qingdong snorted, "Ling Bai, I admire Pei Jizhang. He was never this kind of person before, but Guan Zhou still indulges him."
Xu Lingbai was at a loss, his face still red and hot, and after a long while he murmured, "Second Master, Silang and Guanzhou are in love, this is a good thing."
puff!
Qin Qingdong stretched out his arm and placed it directly on Xu Lingbai's shoulder. He was not as tall as Xu Lingbai, but he did not find it difficult to do so.
On the contrary, he is very dissolute.
"I know. I teased the couple a few times. You see, Ji Zhang is usually mature and steady. He never gets anxious when things happen to him. But Guan Zhou got into trouble a few times. I almost got scared to death when I saw him."
Love is a good thing.
such a pity!
Such a loving couple, but there is no child...
After Pei An changed his clothes and returned to the guest room, Qin Qingdong thought that there was no outsider around, so he asked frankly about his doubts.
Pei An was stunned for a moment.
Then he lowered his head and smiled, "It's okay. Even if we don't have children and no one to look after, Guan Zhou and I will continue as always."
what?
Not only was Qin Qingdong stunned for a moment, but even Xu Lingbai felt a little uncomfortable with these words.
After pondering for a moment, he asked carefully, "If you really don't have a child in this world, it's inevitable that you will feel empty. You and your wife have always loved each other, but I'm afraid you are not destined to have children yet."
Qin Qingdong stopped joking and nodded, "Guan Zhou has not been in good health this year, so he just needs to take care of himself."
Pei An nodded.
"It's okay. Don't mention these things to Guanzhou. My second sister-in-law always keeps on talking about this. If everyone is concerned, Guanzhou will feel more stressed."
"I see. You and your wife are so loving. We are really envious of you."
Pei An smiled and shook his head, "Xi Hui, there is no need to say more. If the fourth young lady from Japan comes to marry you, they will definitely be as loving as you are. As for my cousin, many families in the capital have come to ask about him."
Xu Lingbai quickly waved his hands.
"I'm sorry to bother you, Silang. I have nothing right now. After I'm sent out to work, I can build a small business and then talk about marriage."
Pei An nodded.
"My cousin is neither arrogant nor impatient, which is quite good. They are also the ones who came from the capital to ask about this, so they are not suitable. Otherwise..., I would have introduced a match to my cousin a long time ago."
The blush on Xu Lingbai's face that had just disappeared reappeared on her fair skin.
He shook his head and stammered in refusal.
This caused Qin Qingdong to burst into laughter. "Brother Lingbai, you are so shy. If we really get married tomorrow, how will we spend the wedding night?"
puff!
Xu Lingbai took a mouthful of hot tea and spat it out.
Fortunately, it did not affect the two gentlemen in front of him. Pei An couldn't bear Qin Qingdong's teasing and changed the subject.
"My eldest sister is going to attend Prince An's funeral."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Qingdong was about to put down the black piece when he suddenly froze, "Your elder sister, the Princess of Ming County, is coming back to Beijing?"
Pei An nodded.
"I just received an urgent letter from the Prince's Mansion two days ago."
"You haven't been back for several years, right?"
"It's been about seven or eight years. Ever since I followed Prince Ming back to his fiefdom in southern Yunnan, we've only been in touch through letters. My second brother is fine. He went there once at the beginning of the year. I haven't seen my eldest sister for several years."
Ah!
Qin Qingdong smiled, "I'm afraid your elder sister is coming to choose husbands for the girls?"
Pei An shook his head, "I don't know much about these. My eldest sister is quite different from me in age, and because of my mother, even if the two houses are in contact, it is my second brother and his wife who agree to it."
In a word, the relationship between the siblings seems to be good, but they have not had any private contact for many years.
"I won't live in your mansion when I return. Let Guan Zhou go to the Prince's Mansion to pay respects and settle the matter." Qin Qingdong said this and suddenly remembered something, "Ji Zhang, is your old lady still in seclusion?"
Pei An's face remained calm and he nodded calmly.
"Still living in the small Buddhist courtyard."
This was polite talk, but Qin Qingdong and Xu Lingbai both knew that the old lady had been imprisoned for more than half a year. Qin Qingdong clicked his tongue and said, "Does the Princess of Ming County know about this?"
Pei An shook his head.
"I don't think he knows. My second brother didn't mention it when he went to southern Yunnan last time."
Well, this matter is a little difficult to conceal.
"Your elder sister is a strong person by nature. She will definitely meet less with the old lady when she comes back this time. You have to protect Guan Zhou when the time comes."
Xu Lingbai didn't understand and looked up at Pei An.
Pei An certainly understood, and nodded solemnly, "I've been thinking about this, too. If my elder sister makes trouble, I'll send Guan Zhou to my uncle's house in Jiangzhou."
Ok?
After these words were spoken, not only Xu Lingbai looked sideways, but even Qin Qingdong was shocked.
"Which makes?"
After all, Pei Qiuyun is the princess of a county prince. It is inappropriate for her to avoid her so blatantly.
Pei An held the lamp in one hand, his slender fingers had distinct joints and were very elegant.
He brought the teacup to his lips, smiled gently, and drank half of it. "It's okay. If the eldest sister is unhappy because of mother's birth, it will be a good thing for Guan Zhou to avoid quarrels in the family."
Yes!
Qin Qingdong sighed, "Anyway, Guan Zhou is not a soft-hearted person. If he really clashes with you and my elder sister, it would be a waste of time. It's better to avoid him as soon as possible."
Xu Lingbai was worried, but he didn't dare to ask too much.
I thought it would be great if I could leave for Jiangzhou and hide away for a couple of days.
Originally, the Xiao family's accounts also needed to be explained, but it would be better for the two brothers and sisters to go together instead of suffering in front of Princess Ming.
Now it seems that the Princess of Ming County is not easy to get along with.
The three gentlemen played chess and chatted, and time passed slowly. Over at the hot spring pool, Song Guanzhou in the water looked at Xu Lingqiao sitting by the pool, his face full of helplessness.
"Good sister, we are just a few girls, why are you shy?"
