Chapter 33 Jealousy (please vote for collection recommendation)
  "Squeak!."

The courtyard was empty and quiet. When Pei Zhaoxue pushed the door open, the sound was very obvious, instantly attracting the attention of Cui Shao and the waiter.

The clerk was from the Shen family shop. He also participated in the wedding of Shen Yuan as the second lady of the Shen family, and had seen the face of Pei Zhaoxue, the groom.

So when he got closer, walked out of the darkness into the light, and saw his jade-like face clearly, my heart suddenly skipped a beat, and I subconsciously wanted to call him "Uncle."

Pei Zhaoxue guessed his intention and interrupted him before he did: "You can go back. I have something to say to Mr. Cui."

The night wind picked up at this moment, and the cheap lanterns in the corridor swayed, the lights flickered on and off, and Pei Zhaoxue's stern face came into Cui Shao's eyes.

The dim yellow light illuminated his silver-white crane cloak. He stepped forward, and the silver thread on the moon-white robe seemed to come alive. Following his walking movements, a clear radiance like moonlight overflowed.

Cui Shao had never seen Pei Zhaoxue before. The first time he saw his appearance, another figure emerged uncontrollably in his heart.

That figure is equally unattainable. The two of them have their own merits, but they are equally stunning.

He inquired about Shen Yuan and found out that she was married to Pei Zhaoxue, the prime minister known as "Pei He" at that time.

It is said that this person is unique and beautiful, and there is no other person in the world.

Cui Shao just stared at the person in front of him for a while and determined that he should be Pei Zhaoxue.

"Bae Zaifu."

He had a humble status. Pei Zhaoxue was a first-class official and had to bow.

Pei Zhaoxue was also looking at Cui Shao.

The boy in front of him, to be precise, should be a young man.

One glance at his bone age showed that he was nineteen years old, but his physical condition made him look like he was sixteen or seventeen years old.

The half of the face that was exposed could be called handsome, but it was so thin that the bones were almost poking at the skin, making it very uncomfortable to look at.

The hidden half of the face seems to have scars, and it can be vaguely seen that they are corrosive scars.

"You are Cui Shao." Pei Zhaoxue looked away, his eyes fell on the bundle in Cui Shao's hand, and asked him what his relationship was with Shen Yuan.

Cui Shao noticed that Pei Zhaoxue was looking at the clothes in his hand, and subconsciously clenched them tightly, as if he was afraid that he would snatch them away.

"Me and Mrs. Shen."

The young man lowered his narrow eyes, somewhat unsure of what to say.

He was said to be a savior, but that was in her dream. He was said to be a friend, but his identity was not equal to hers.

After murmuring for a long time, I finally came up with a reasonably useful relationship.

"Partner."

Pei Zhaoxue narrowed her eyes and picked up a piece of clothing from his hand.

It can be seen that the clothes are sewn by hand. The fabric is Yun brocade that he is familiar with. The collar and cuffs are sewn with moire and water ripple embroidery, both of which are simple styles that he likes.

Indeed, he had seen Shen Yuan sewing it himself.

But now, it appears in the hands of another man.

Pei Zhaoxue crinkled the clothes in her hands and continued to ask in a hoarse voice: "Did she tell you to give these clothes to you, or did you want them yourself?"

Cui Shao saw him crumpling his clothes, frowning and reaching out to take it back.

"Of course Madam Shen told me this. Didn't Pei Zaifu also hear what the guy said just now?"

Pei Zhaoxue let Cui Shao snatch the clothes back, with an incomprehensible look in Ruifeng's eyes.

Mo Er saw that the clothes were similar to the ones worn by Pei Zhaoxue. He wanted to get them back for him, but he heard him say in a dull voice: "Can I go in and change into the clothes?"

Seeing that he didn't mean to rob him, Cui Shao was puzzled but still did it. The size of the clothes was unexpected by both of them, and they fit perfectly.

Pei Zhaoxue stared at the young man who had changed into new clothes and suddenly chuckled.

"Take it off and take the rest."

Cui Shao frowned and wanted to refuse, but he didn't know what the relationship between Shen Yuan and Pei Zhaoxue was, and he was afraid that if he offended Pei Zhaoxue, she would also be offended, so in the end he had no choice but to do so and change back to the dusty clothes before.

"Mo Er, take him to a nearby clothing store to buy a few new sets of clothes."

The young man took a bundle of clothes back to the carriage. When Mo Er came back from doing his work, the gloom on his face was still not relieved.

Seeing that he was back, Pei Zhaoxue glanced at Cui Shaoli's back and asked Mo Er inexplicably.

"How do you think I compare to him?"

"Ah? Cui Shao?"

Seeing Pei Zhaoxue nodding, Mo Er scratched his head and replied: "There is no comparison between him and the master, whether it is appearance, talent, knowledge or status."

Pei Zhaoxue felt more comfortable and didn't ask any more questions.

The carriage returned to Pei Mansion in Tingzhou from the capital, and it was already dark.

Perhaps because he had done something guilty, or perhaps because he was afraid of disturbing Shen Yuan, Pei Zhaoxue did not choose to go back to Luohuayuan, but went to the courtyard where he lived before marriage to sleep.

Early the next morning, when the snow stopped completely, several roosters crowed one after another, almost penetrating the sky.

Shocked, Pei Zhaoxue raised her eyebrows and asked Mo Er what was going on. Why were there so many rooster crows in the White Lotus Courtyard?
  Mo Er got up early and looked a bit speechless.

After hearing the words, he hesitated for a while, but still told everything he knew.

Bailianyuan, perhaps it is more appropriate to call it a livestock farm now.

Shen Yuan came over early in the morning to check on the results of what he had asked Zhi Luo to do last night.

Seeing many plump piglets taking a bath in the warm pool, with many ducks swimming above, I nodded with satisfaction.

"Yes, the quality seems to be good, but those big roosters crow a little too loudly, which is quite noisy."

Zhiluo glanced at the warm pool filled with chickens, ducks, fish, geese, and pigs, as well as the free-range poultry in Bailian Courtyard, and asked Shen Yuan if this was too wasteful.

"Especially the natural spring in the courtyard. It's better to use it for these animals than for human beings."

Shen Yuan threw a handful of rotten vegetable leaves to the piglets in the warm pool, and said with a smile: "It's okay, mainly because this place has been defiled by others, and I feel uncomfortable living here again, but it's a waste to leave it empty. , it’s better to use it to raise something.”

The snow stopped in the morning, and Fang Xuelin, who lived here last night, moved her things to the yard where she used to live almost overnight.

But halfway through, it started to snow heavily, and there was still some left.

At this moment, the servants from Fang Xuelin's courtyard came one after another. When they came in, they saw so many livestock occupying the corners of the Bailian courtyard. They all looked like vegetables, and it felt like they had been slapped a few times for nothing.

As soon as they moved out of the place where they used to live, livestock took over the territory. They were told that they were not even as good as these livestock now. After all, they were no longer qualified to live here.

Zhi Luoben still didn't understand Shen Yuan's intention.

Now that I saw the servants in Fang Xuelin's courtyard carrying things out one by one with dark faces, I understood the meaning and looked at Shen Yuan with admiration.

"Young Madam is so awesome. I have never thought that I can humiliate people in this way. It's better now, Miss Fang." Before Zhi Luo finished speaking, he caught a glimpse of a moon-white figure approaching from the corner of his eye, and hurriedly fell silent. He tugged on Shen Yuan's sleeve.

"Young Madam, my uncle is here."

 Pei Zhaoxue: What the hell is going on?
