After sending Luo Ting away in person, Pei Yue turned back and walked towards the back house.

After receiving the news, Taohua and Lin Shuyue hurriedly came to the Yimen to greet them, naturally followed by several maids.

Lin Shuyue's expression looked slightly unnatural. Although she had been with Taohua for half a day, she could clearly feel that this nominal maid was a little alienated from her. After experiencing so many ups and downs, and in Qiujiang Tower, she was

The place is accustomed to people being warm and cold, and Lin Shuyue certainly knows the reason for this alienation.

Pei Yue first smiled at Lin Shuyue, then raised the corners of his mouth and looked at Taohua, opened his arms and said, "Stupid girl, your young master is back."

Originally, Taohua thought she must not cry, even if her tears wet the pillow countless times over the past year, she must smile when she saw the young master. However, after seeing Pei Yue's movements and the warm look on his face

After the smile, all the disguises and shells were shattered in an instant, and big tears fell down. She ran a few steps and threw herself into Pei Yue's arms, whimpering and saying: "Master, I'm so worried about you..."

Pei Yue raised his hand and patted her head gently, comforting: "Don't cry, it won't look good if you turn into a little cat."

Taohua buried her head in his chest and said in a low voice: "It doesn't look good at all..."

Hearing her words, Pei Yue suddenly realized that Taohua was one year older than him. She was no longer a little girl. Even in her previous life, she was still a big girl. Then he felt that the body in his arms was different, although she was still a little girl.

It is not as graceful and graceful as Lin Shuyue, but it still has the warm fragrance of soft jade.

Noticing that there were still a few people watching, Pei Yue let her go, then raised his hand to scratch her nose, and joked: "My Taohua is the most beautiful woman in the world. Who dares to say that you are not good-looking?"

I'll cut off his head and use it as a chamber pot."

Taohua let out a "thump" and almost spit out snot from her excitement. She quickly turned her head to clean it up and said with some embarrassment: "Young master knows how to bully me."

Having said that, her face was filled with sincere joy.

In fact, she has been the saddest person for more than a year, because she knows her identity and status, and at most she is taken as a concubine by the young master. However, the separation time is too long, and she will inevitably feel very uneasy. She is not like Gu Zhen.

His status is not as good as that of Ye Qi

Her martial arts skills and appearance are not stunning, so she would naturally worry about being forgotten by Pei Yue. Especially today, when Ye Qi brought Lin Shuyue back, her worries reached its peak. It was not that she meant to show off to the other party, she just

He was afraid that Pei Yue would become unfamiliar with him when he came back.

Now that she saw her, all the worries in her heart disappeared. The young master was still the same young master as before. He was the young master who depended on her in Dingguo Mansion and always took care of her.

Pei Yue could probably guess what Tao Hua was thinking, but he didn't say it to her face. He took the little girl's hand and smiled at Lin Shuyue: "Let's go in and talk."

"Yes, young master." Lin Shuyue replied politely.

Pei Yue saw this and said softly: "I have told you several times that you should not be polite at home. Do you still regard yourself as an outsider now?"

Lin Shuyue smiled sweetly and shook her head.

Pei Yue asked Taohua: "Where is your sister Ye?"

Taohua answered obediently: "The girl has gone to take a bath."

Pei Yue said with a smile: "Speaking of which, we should all take a bath, Taohua, how about you help the young master?"

Lin Shuyue next to her covered her mouth and smiled softly. Unexpectedly, Taohua was not shy. She looked at Pei Yue with bright eyes, nodded vigorously and said, "Okay!"

Pei Yuedeng suddenly remembered that in Green Willow Manor, this girl climbed into his bed in the middle of the night and insisted on sleeping with her. She also said that this was what a maid should do. As a result, she slept soundly that night, and he was not only very tired

It’s uncomfortable, and I have to help her from time to time

He picked up the quilt that had been kicked off. When he thought of Taohua's troublesome sleeping state, he was a little scared and couldn't help but said awkwardly: "That's all, young master, I'm still used to washing by myself. Just go and help me prepare clean clothes."

."

Taohua's face was full of disappointment, and she sighed softly: "Okay, Master."

There was a smile in Lin Shuyue's eyes, but she was also a little surprised. Before anything happened to the Lin family, she was the daughter of a famous family. When had she ever seen such a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere in the back house?

When she thought of this, Taohua's alienation from her just now became unimportant, and she was full of expectations for her future life.

After everyone had washed and bathed, the lanterns in the mansion were first lit, and the banquet was already set up in the flower hall.

Pei Yue sat in the main seat, Ye Qi was opposite him, and Taohua and Lin Shuyue stood side by side.

After drinking from the door cup, Pei Yue took the clean chopsticks and took the initiative to help the three of them pick up the food. He said with a smile: "All the heroines have worked hard over the past year. I feel really sorry. I will try my best to make up for it in the future."

Ye Qi smiled and said nothing, Lin Shuyue looked affectionate, but Taohua said with tears in her eyes: "Master, you are obviously the hardest worker, you should eat more meat."

Then he put a piece of rabbit meat into Pei Yue's bowl.

Pei Yue sighed: "After all, my love for you was not in vain."

Taohua smiled innocently.

Pei Yue asked again: "By the way, has your mother ever come to see you?"

Taohua was startled, shook her head and said, "I have never met my mother."

Pei Yue looked at Ye Qi with doubts on his face. He remembered that after Chen Xizhi committed suicide, he once told Leng Ning that he could come to Kyoto and see Taohua from time to time. At least there would be no need to separate mother and daughter.

Ye Qi said softly: "Aunt Leng returned to Southern Zhou. After all, her family is there. She said she would come back to Kyoto in a year and a half."

"That's fine."

Pei Yue responded, then looked at Lin Shuyue and said, "I will ask Taohua to take someone to clean up a small courtyard for you, and provide you with a maid and a wife. You can stay here for the time being."

These words suddenly silenced the room.

Lin Shuyue's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and her hands were clenched together nervously.

Ye Qi frowned slightly and said, "Don't she live in the back house?"

At this moment, even Taohua, who had always been ignorant, realized that something was wrong. She had heard from Ye Qi before that this beautiful girl Lin was already in the young master's room, and now she didn't live with Pei Yue. Could it be that the young master didn't intend to?

Taking concubines?

Pei Yue glanced at it and realized that they had misunderstood his thoughts, so he smiled and said: "What nonsense are you talking about? Although I can't give Shu Yue the title of a principal wife, I can't make it too simple. Then who do I regard her as?

?When Lin Andu comes to Kyoto with Zang Fengwei, let him meet Shu Yue, then hold a serious banquet and let Shu Yue enter the Pei family."

Lin Shuyue touched Xia Fei's cheeks, and at the same time, her eyes were filled with tears.

How could there be so much fuss about taking a concubine in this day and age? It was just a matter of being carried through the door in a sedan chair.

Pei Yue said this clearly to give her a ceremony. Even though she was still a concubine with a low status in the eyes of the world, it could still let people know that Pei Yue loved and valued her.

Lin Shuyue held back her tears and shook her head: "Master, there is no need for this..."

Pei Yue interrupted her and said without any doubt: "Be obedient."

Lin Shuyue looked at him with tender eyes and said obediently: "Yes."

Taohua was very envious when she saw this scene and looked at Pei Yue eagerly.

Pei Yue couldn't help but raise his hand and pat her forehead, and said with a smile: "You have one too, waiting for your mother to come to Kyoto."

Taohua smiled "hehe" and put a few more pieces of rabbit meat into Pei Yue's bowl.

Ye Qi stared at Pei Yue with great interest, as if to say that you are really cunning, and you solved the harmonious problem of the back house with just one hand.

Pei Yue coughed lightly and asked seriously: "Ye Qi, I plan to go to Guangping Marquis Mansion to visit my aunt tomorrow, will you go?"

Ye Qi chuckled and said: "Go, I miss sister Zhen'er very much too."

Pei Yue wanted to slap himself, so why bother asking for trouble in front of Ye Qi?

Compared with Lin Shuyue and Taohua, it is hundreds of times more difficult to deal with these two masters.
