The seven emotions and six desires are all my nourishment

Chapter 540 Laziness Makes Me Happy 34

Xinqin squinted her eyes and looked up at Pei Chi, but Pei Chi didn't look at her, as if he had no interest in her at all.

[Oh my, if this thing hadn't been giving out gifts every day, I would have thought it was an illusion. It's so convincing!]

[Humph, I won't be fooled! Tsk~] Xin Qin saw that the banquet was half over, so he said goodbye to his elders and used Xin Xian as an excuse to go back to the backyard. The three wolves followed him in an instant.

Seeing this, Xin Xian supported her big belly and hurried back to her room.

Xinqin was surrounded by wolves and brought back to her room. After she gave them some pills to eat, the three wolves had fun for a while and then lay down on the ground beside her bed.

"Haa ...

How can we allow civil and military officials to become friends? Why does it feel like this chess game is getting more chaotic?

[Forget it, let's go to sleep first. My stupid father has a higher official position. If I don't marry, will he still be able to support me? You want me to throw myself into his arms? Dream on.]

……

The guests are all satisfied with the food and wine.

Pei Chi left the house and mounted his horse. He turned to look at the Xin family plaque, a smile on his face. "Hey, see you in three days, lazy girl~"

"drive!"

……

"What! I don't agree!"

"Hurry up and reply to the letter. Tell her that Erya has been betrothed to someone else!"

"The sky is high and the emperor is far away, who would know!" Inside the house, Miao Guoguo was getting angry, and the table was slammed by her.

Xin Zongliang has been married to her for so many years, but he has never seen her get angry. This time she got angry at him, let alone... it was quite strange.

"Stop daydreaming and go write!" Miao Guo was really anxious. Seeing that Xin Zongliang was just looking at her without saying a word, she shook his shoulders anxiously.

Xin Zongliang sighed, "If I were still just a ninth-rank county magistrate and no one knew about it, it would be easy to hide the news, but now I am a prefect, and if I take the next step, it is possible that I will be transferred to the capital."

"If we do this without any purpose, then our entire family, young and old, will die!"

"Wuuu, wuuu, I don't care, I don't agree, I don't want to! Wuuu!" Miao Guoguo's face turned pale. The usually strong and capable Miao Guoguo burst into tears in an instant.

Xin Zongliang was startled and quickly hugged her to comfort her awkwardly, "I'll think of a solution. Don't get yourself hurt by being angry!"

"Bah, what's the point of talking about the Xin family's ancestors? We used to have to eat coarse food and no one came to help us. Now the emperor is selecting concubines and he actually wants my daughter to enter the palace! You're dreaming!"

"His father, go find a good person quickly. Didn't you already choose one?"

"They are writing some policy papers in the general's mansion now. You go quickly and choose someone so that Erya can get married as soon as possible!" Miao Guoguo remembered something, wiped her tears and grabbed Xin Zongliang's hand, full of hope.

Xin Zongliang nodded repeatedly, "Okay, okay, I'll go now, you take a rest, don't worry."

"Oh, right, Arya is smart. Take the letter to her first. Don't worry about it here, lest someone with ulterior motives hear it!"

"Yes, I understand! Husband, please come back soon!" Miao Guoguo picked up the letter, told him a few words in a hurry, and ran to the backyard!

Xin Zongliang also lifted his clothes and rushed to Pei Mansion, forgetting about the carriage.

Unfortunately, Pei Chi went out for military training today and has not recovered yet, so he is not at home.

Xin Zongliang was exhausted and was sent to the house where the group of scholars were staying by the Pei mansion's housekeeper.

But what did he see!

Where are those good scholars back then? Who are these bald-headed white-faced buns now?

Xin Zongliang couldn't do this even if he went against his conscience!

At this moment, Xin Zongliang felt both cold and excited.

He walked anxiously and distraught on the street. He was so worried that he kept looking at the men's faces on the street.

Pei Chi straightened his clothes and slowly appeared beside Xin Zongliang on horseback. His tone was respectful and polite, yet warm. "Uncle Xin, what are you investigating now? Do you need my help?"

When Xin Zongliang looked up, he saw a handsome and brave young man. Although his forehead was covered in sweat, he did not look embarrassed.

Xin Zongliang was stunned. [Young and promising, strong and handsome, with a good family background!]

Pei Chi jumped off his horse and walked over to him, asking with concern, "Uncle, what's wrong?"

Xin Zongliang glanced at him from head to toe, then suddenly smiled and grabbed his wrist. "How old are you, nephew? Do you have a wife or concubine at home?"

Pei Chi smiled innocently, "My nephew has just come of age and doesn't have a wife or concubine yet."

"Moreover, my nephew's family has strict traditions. Our ancestors have a family motto that men in the Pei family can only marry one wife and cannot have concubines."

"Oh!! Does my nephew have someone he likes?" Xin Zongliang's eyes lit up even more. What a great family tradition! That's great!

"Haha, uncle, you're kidding. How can I find someone I like when I'm hanging around in the military camp?"

Pei Chi smiled a little embarrassedly and explained.

"Uncle, you don't know that my ancestors were all military commanders, busy fighting all over the world. Therefore, men in my Pei family usually get married late. We'll talk about marriage when we have the chance."

"it is good……"

"Hehe, it's getting late. Why don't you go to your uncle's house for a gathering?" Xin Zongliang grabbed his brother's wrist and pulled him home. Although he asked politely, his actions were actually very tough.

Xin Zongliang decided to bring the man back and then talk to his daughter!
