I am aging gracefully in the world of famous books

After breakfast, Pei Xiang took a walk in the yard.

Yu Luocha's subordinates passed by her carrying large and small boxes, and occasionally there were a few acquaintances Yuanzhen had known before.

Most of these people who work with Yu Luocha know that Pei Xiang is the former Head of the Sixth Hall of the North, and they also know of her "great achievements" in deceiving Yu Luocha.Therefore, they looked at her with a bit of novelty and "admiration".

"Are you going to live long?" Pei Xiang looked at Yu Luocha with slight dissatisfaction between his brows, "My place is small, but you have too many things."

Yu Luocha pretended not to hear the second half of the sentence, and only answered Pei Xiang's previous question.

"I can accompany you until the child is born, and then I have to return to the northwest."

"It will take more than half a year's work. Are you afraid that there will be chaos down there?"

"It's better to mess up, and take the opportunity to get rid of those who have different intentions, and it can also expose the hidden disadvantages in the church as soon as possible."

Pei Xiang nodded, and didn't ask any further questions about the Western Rakshasa Sect.

After wandering around the flowers for a while, she was ready to go back to the house to read a book.

At this time, a small round head popped up on the wall not far away.

"Aunt Peipei, peaches are delicious, Eggy likes them."

Seeing Lu Dandan, Pei Xiang smiled and rolled his eyes: "Dandan, you're up, are you staying in bed today?"

Lu Dandan pouted and shook her head: "Dandan never stays in bed, Dandan, Dandan likes to close her eyes."

Pei Xiang teased him: "Then why didn't Dandan continue to close her eyes on the small bed this morning?"

"Father said, yes, thank you Aunt Pei Pei."

While talking to Pei Xiang, Lu Dandan rode up on the wall and stretched out his arms towards Pei Xiang.

Pei Xiang hugged Lu Dandan off the wall, put it on the ground and stood firm: "Where's your father?"

"Father said, don't dare to come, Aunt Pei Pei has a big villain here."

Pei Xiang suddenly realized, no wonder Yu Luocha "believed" her promise so easily before, and solved her doubts and mysteries happily.

It turned out that he and Lu Yu had already "colluded" together.

With a sneer on the corner of his mouth, Pei Xiang felt that both of them were a little childish.

"Eggy is really brave, not afraid of big villains."

Lu Dandan proudly puffed out her small chest: "Auntie Peipei gives Guozi, Dandan, man, protect Aunt Peipei."

"Thank you Eggy, Eggy is a man, let's go, Aunt Pei Pei will take you to eat bean cakes."

Pei Xiang took Lu Dandan's little hand and led him into the bright and clean hall.

As soon as she entered the room, Lu Dandan went straight to the wooden table where the cakes were placed, climbed onto the chair and sat down.He didn't grab the pastry directly, but looked at Pei Xiang eagerly, waiting for Pei Xiang to nod his approval.

After Lu Dandan finished eating a whole piece of sweet and glutinous bean cake, Lu Yu, who "did not dare to come", appeared with a smile.

Yu Luocha stared at the uninvited person coldly, and asked quietly:

"You don't want to drink good wine in the Northwest in your life?"

Lu Yu intentionally showed a helpless wry smile, pointed to Lu Dandan who was eating cakes in the room and said:

"Yu Luocha, I didn't take the initiative to find Mrs. Pei, I came to find my apprentice. This kid is too naughty, I'm afraid he will cause trouble."

Yu Luocha snorted, turned her head and told the passing subordinates:

"Go find someone to build the wall in the yard higher, so that Daxia Lu won't lose sight of the child."

Lu Yu immediately made a request to Lu Dandan who was eating pastries:

"Damn, you are already a three-and-a-half-year-old boy. It's time to practice light kung fu from morning to night. Otherwise, you won't be able to see your Aunt Pei Pei in the future."

Lu Dandan raised her head and looked at Lu Yu who suddenly became strict, her eyes were a little confused.

He stared blankly for a while, smiled softly at Pei Xiang, and continued to concentrate on eating pastries.

Pei Xiang coughed lightly, and asked Lu Yu: "Brother Lu, does the disguise contest you mentioned earlier still count?"

Lu Yu quickly responded: "Do what you want, Mrs. Pei, let's talk carefully? If you have any conditions, you can mention them. As long as I have face in front of my old friends, everything is easy to talk about."

"Brother Lu, are you not afraid that I will open my mouth like a lion?"

Lu Yu said with a smile: "Miss Pei is a person, and my eyes, Lu Yu, can still distinguish clearly. This person, after wandering in the rivers and lakes for a long time, has an intuition for knowing people. I believe that Mrs. Pei has something in her heart. Fair and just."

Pei Xiang smiled: "Brother Lu is putting a high hat on me. I have already thought about the terms of the transaction, but now I am afraid to say it."

"Miss Pei, please tell me."

Pei Xiang hesitated for a moment, and instead of immediately stating the conditions he had thought about in his heart, he asked seriously:

"Brother Lu, tell me about the time and method of the competition first. Also, can you introduce your old friend in detail?"

Lu Yu sat down opposite Yu Luocha, and said loudly:

"The time for the contest is set to be one year later. It will be better than either of you's disguise, and who can deceive the other. As for the more specific method, we will discuss it after my old friend shows up.

"Hey, mentioning my old friend, you probably haven't heard of him, just call him Li Gui. He doesn't like to be famous, and he doesn't like to get along with too many people, but it's not because of humility or inferiority. of.

"He is the kind of person who is extremely proud. He is most proud of his lightness skills and disguise skills. As long as he has a little wine and is not drunk, he will feel that everyone else in the world is stupid, and he is not as clever and observant as he is. "

Pei Xiang raised his eyebrows: "A person who has become a leader in a certain field or profession naturally has the confidence to be proud. Brother Lu, you don't have to find someone to beat him just because of this, do you?"

Lu Yu glared: "I'm not the kind of narrow-minded person. How can I be jealous of an excellent person for no reason? Oh, I want you to win him because I made a bet with that guy. The content of the bet is It was he who proposed it on his own initiative, very tricky. If I lose..."

Speaking of this, Lu Yu found that both Pei Xiang and Yu Luocha were staring at him intently. Obviously, these two people were very curious about the content of the bet.

Lu Yu suddenly couldn't continue.

He crossed his arms and glanced at the husband and wife opposite him, feeling that the old saying goes well, what kind of pot goes with what kind of lid, what and what will eventually see each other.

——Tsk tsk, don't look at the conflicts between these two people in private, but watching other people's excitement from the sidelines is exactly the same.

"If I lose..." Lu Yu rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "Since I met Mrs. Pei, I will definitely not lose. So, I won't talk about the specific content of the bet."

Yu Luocha shook her head and said, "If you don't mention the content of the bet, my wife will not be able to measure how much or how little she will help you, and it will be even more difficult to propose an equivalent exchange."

Pei Xiang immediately smiled and echoed what Yu Luocha said.

"That's true. Brother Lu, I believe that your friend must be a hero among men. If I want to defeat him, I will definitely have to put in a lot of effort, and I may even use the means of suppressing the bottom of the box. This will make me feel embarrassed Yes, because once the secret technique of pressing the bottom of the box is used, it will lose its mystery and surprise attack. In this way, it will be a big loss for people like me who are not very good at martial arts."

Yu Luocha sighed softly: "It's not just a big loss, the means of saving life can certainly be called a priceless treasure. If it's just to win a bet, there is no need to expose it at all."

Pei Xiang nodded in agreement and looked sincerely: "I have passed the age of being competitive, and I know what is the most important thing. So Brother Lu, I have to tell you clearly in advance that I may not do my best during the competition. It's not worth it after all."

Lu Yu opened his eyes wide to look at this cheeky couple, and felt that today was an eye-opener.

"Wait, although I'm not happy to tell you the details of the bet, I can give you very valuable terms of exchange. Miss Pei, you should do your best just for the bargaining chips I offer you."

Pei Xiang raised his eyebrows, his beautiful spring-like eyes seemed to be able to speak, silently urging Lu Yu.

Lu Yu took a deep breath and said slowly:

"I was thinking about it before. Now it seems that Mrs. Pei and Master Yu are so in tune with each other in terms of how to behave in the world. It can be seen that I don't need to give any more treasures. After all, I am a poor ghost who wanders the rivers and lakes. How can I compare with the leader A Rakshasa leader of a huge sect? How about this, I will make a promise of favor, Mrs. Pei, as long as you beat my old friend Li Gui, I will owe you a favor, how about it?"

Pei Xiang thought, that's of course good, Lu Yu's promise of favor is worth more than any gold, silver and jewelry.She was procrastinating before and beat the side drum around, but she was actually waiting for this condition.

But on the surface, Pei Xiang didn't show the slightest bit of complacency or satisfaction.She frowned slightly, and asked Lu Yu pretending to be cautious, what kind of debt is he?

Lu Yu has just repaid a debt of favor he owed in his early years, so he explained with an example:

"Just like escorting Feng Yiwei this time, I am repaying the favor. Normally, I will do one thing for others unconditionally. Of course, this thing must be within my ability and not conflict with my bottom line."

Pei Xiang nodded knowingly, and then sighed regretfully: "In this way, the person who asked you to repay the debt has lost money. Brother Lu is so capable, but if he only uses it to prevent the assassination of Shaying Pavilion, it is a bit overkill."

Yu Luocha suddenly retorted: "It's not considered an overkill, Lu Yu's ability...so be it."

Doubt appeared in Pei Xiang's eyes: "Is that so?"

Yu Luocha's tone was contemptuous: "I know him better than you. If there are other more important matters, the other party may not trust him with confidence."

Lu Yu couldn't help grinding his teeth, and impulsively argued:

"A man who uses any means to protect his beloved wife is not overqualified. The person who asked me for help decided to use my favor because he knew my ability. Because he knew that only by asking me to help, his Only then can the wife be safe and secure."

Pei Xiang's eyes lit up, and he immediately said, "It turns out that the person who asked Big Brother Lu to help is the owner of Ximen Villa."

Yu Luocha also smiled slightly, turned her head and said to Pei Xiang:

"Okay, the doubts in your heart have finally been completely resolved. The person who asked Lu Yu to act was Ximenshen, not Feng Yiwei. This is not a drama directed and acted by Mrs. Ximen. You have not been fooled."

Lu Yu immediately realized that he had fallen into a trap again.

His face was tense and he looked angry.

It's a pity that the two people who talked together were too practical. After getting the answer they wanted to know, the two stopped talking to Lu Yu and were busy exposing each other's faults instead.

Yu Luocha said: "To tell the truth, you are an expert in deceiving people through acting."

Pei Xiang retorted: "Am I born to like to rack my brains to make up nonsense? I have always been forced, persecuted by cunning and hypocritical evil forces."

Yu Luocha sneered: "Then there is no evil force to persecute you now, why do you keep changing your appearance?"

Pei Xiang was very confident: "Of course it's because I'm so good-looking. I don't want you to look more and take advantage."

Lu Yu knocked on the table angrily, and suddenly shouted loudly to Lu Dandan in the room:

"Damn, don't think I didn't notice it when I was outside the house. You have already eaten too much dim sum today. You are not allowed to take another piece. Do you want to become Lu Pangpang, who is despised by girls? There is already one here." Poor man who is rejected by his wife, I don't hope that you will grow up to be a Lu idiot and a big bastard who won't please women."

Pei Xiangxin said, if Lu Dandan is the future Lu Xiaofeng, he will be a favorite.At least he is more popular with women than Lu Yu, who is both a father and a teacher. Of course, there are also many troubles caused by women.

Yu Luocha sneered and said: "Although I have only been here for less than a day, I know that your apprentice's popularity is much stronger than yours. Instead of worrying about the future of that little guy, you might as well pay attention to your own female popularity."

Lu Yu was very unconvinced by Yu Luocha's evaluation.He felt that this was all slander, the anger of a failed man who would not please his wife.

Yu Luocha shook his head and asked Lu Yu: "Do you think Ximenshen is a good man? Do you think his way of protecting his wife is commendable?"

Lu Yu raised his eyebrows and asked, "Otherwise?"

Yu Luocha just smiled and didn't have the patience to explain to Lu Yu.

In other words, when he saw that Lu Yu was curious, he stopped talking maliciously.

Pei Xiang suddenly thought of another thing, she asked Yu Luocha for confirmation:

"You investigated Shaying Pavilion before, do you know who wanted to kill Ximen's wife, Feng Yiwei?"

Yu Luocha told Pei Xiang a name.

Pei Xiang was thoughtful.

"This Ximenshen...he didn't stop Han Ning'er from hiring a killer, but he asked Brother Lu to protect his wife. Is he...is he trying to seize this opportunity and threaten Han Ning'er? No, it should be to threaten someone People related to Han Ning'er."

Yu Luocha nodded slightly:

"I also have the same idea. He found out that Han Ning'er was going to kill Feng Yiwei, not only did he not stop it in advance, he even quarreled with Feng Yiwei, letting Feng Yiwei leave the strict protection of Wanmei Villa, and providing Shaying Pavilion with an opportunity. But he didn't want Feng Yiwei to have an accident, so he asked Lu Yu to protect her.

"In this way, he is equivalent to holding a handle on Han Ning'er. Someone who cares about Han Ning'er, if he doesn't want Han Ning'er's reputation to be ruined or controlled by others, he must give up some benefits. As for this As for the specific benefits, probably only Ximenshen and a certain person know."

Pei Xiang agreed: "Someone? Actually, it's easy to guess. This person is probably Han Ning'er's mother and Ximenshen's aunt. This should be related to the internal grievances of Ximen's family."
