It's already late when dinner arrives. The food and wine at Sihailou are of course good. After all, the meal costs more than two hundred taels.
Did the Pei family ever take this to heart before? But now, they have pawned a few valuable things in exchange for it. Moreover, after this dinner, the money they pawned has been spent, and next, they still have to
A life of living frugally and not having enough to eat.
However, Pei Ji didn't feel reluctant at all.
The six old servants of the Pei family did not feel at all that their master was trying to make a fool of himself. They still respected their master!
The waves wash away the sand, and those left behind are all loyal servants of the Weiwu Hou Mansion.
In fact, Pei Ji can no longer afford servants. He has no monthly money and his life is very tight. He has to grow his own vegetables and eat the cheapest brown rice on the market.
They still persist.
Even now, there is actually nothing left in the Pei family, but a few old servants still stick to their duties as they did when there were many slaves and the master was in glory.
Mu Qingyu observed and was satisfied with this situation.
The backbone of the Pei family is not broken, and the Pei family still has character!
After dinner, Chu Xinyuan was going back home, but Mu Qingyu didn't want to go back, she wanted to stay.
Chu Xinyuan said tenderly: "The king's secret guards are enough to protect the safety of the Pei family!" His secret guards are extremely skilled and are supposed to protect his safety.
The corners of Mu Qingyu's lips raised, as if mockingly: "Your Highness, Prince Liang, just say what you say. There is no need for this expression. There are no outsiders now, so there is no need to act anymore!"
Chu Xinyuan touched his nose, put away his tender expression, and pointed to the Weiwuhou Mansion outside in the dusk: "I still remember meeting the old Pei family master when he was a child. The Weiwuhou Mansion was magnificent at that time.
It’s far from being as desolate and desolate as it is now!”
"It will be fine in the future!" She had no intention of recognizing her relatives before. After all, the Pei family seemed to have never existed in her memory.
Chu Xinyuan said: "We should go back home!"
Mu Qingyu originally wanted to stay, but thinking that she still had something to do, she said, "I'll tell my grandfather first!"
When Pei Ji saw Mu Qingyu approaching, he couldn't hide the love in his eyes. He called out: "Yu'er!" His voice was a little choked.
Because he was sitting in a chair, he could only watch.
Mu Qingyu walked to him, knelt down, and said in a gentle and friendly voice: "Grandpa, can I stay with you from now on?"
Pei Ji was startled and shook his head: "No! You are the princess, you should live in the palace! My grandfather is old and has old bones. He doesn't need anyone to accompany him!"
He smiled again and said: "Yu'er, it's getting late. Go back quickly. Look, the prince is already waiting for you!"
Over there, Chu Xinyuan didn't come near, but he didn't go far either. He just stood there, as if he was really waiting for her patiently and considerately.
Mu Qingyu sighed in her heart. Pei Ji thought that she and Chu Xinyuan were in love. If he knew the truth, he would probably be sad, right? She couldn't say that an old man in his twilight years would be helpless after his daughter died young and his son left far away.
He was not allowed to return to Beijing, and after living alone for more than ten years, I originally thought that my granddaughter was doing well, but if she knew the truth, she would be cruel to him.
Therefore, Mu Qingyu was not going to say anything, she smiled and said: "Okay! Then Yu'er will come see you tomorrow!"
No, there is no need to wait for tomorrow. She agreed to go back to Prince Liang's Mansion today just because she had something important to do, and she would come back as soon as it was done! She couldn't wait!
