Chapter 505: That aspect... Okay?

"Can I sleep on the couch with you? But I like soft things, so you can ask Nanny Chen to put a thin mattress on the bed for me."

"Okay, okay, I like your straightforwardness. Not sticky at all." Old Madam Pei was even happier.

"Stay here tonight. I'll ask the kitchen to make your favorite crispy quail. You can go back after you finish eating." Old Madam Pei started to invite guests for dinner again.

"Um, grandma, my sister Hua and I will just have something simple to eat tonight and won't come over." Rong Jin declined.

"What? How can you just eat anything? Lei'er is so thin, she needs to eat some nourishment. How dare you say that you can just eat anything?" Lord Pei, who was standing beside him, was dissatisfied when he heard this.

"That's right. Eating is a big deal. How can we be casual about it? If you find it troublesome, just eat here from now on and go back after eating." Old Madam Pei also spoke.

"Grandma, no need..."

"What do you mean you don't need to? Listen to Lei'er." Old Marquis Pei glared and interrupted Rong Jin.

"Well, grandpa and grandma, there is no problem these days. However, my husband and I will go on duty in a few days, so we will be back late.

If I eat here, it will definitely affect your rest and be troublesome." Hua Lei considered that Mrs. Pei usually eats dinner early.

"It doesn't matter. The days will be longer and we won't have to rest so early." Mrs. Pei said.

"How about this, grandma, how about we come here twice every ten days? That way, we can eat good food and it won't disturb your rest." Hua Lei suggested.

"Grandma, I think Sister Hua's suggestion is very good. Let's come twice every ten days." Rong Jin hurriedly chimed in.

After hearing this, although Mrs. Pei felt that the amount was a bit too little, she agreed as the two children had just gotten married and needed to spend more time together.

However, she was really worried about Rong Jin's casual eating. So, after a few days, she transferred a very good cook from her own small kitchen to the small kitchen of Qixia Courtyard to cook for Hua Lei and the other two.

After lunch, Rong Jin returned to Qixia Courtyard, looking back every few steps. Hua Lei accompanied Old Madam Pei on the small couch. The temperature in the room was suitable, and the two of them only covered themselves with a thin blanket.

Waving her hand to let the maids and servants go down, Madam Pei hugged Hua Lei and asked softly, "Lei'er, are you and Jin'er... okay?"

"Don't worry, grandma, I'm fine." Hua Lei replied with a chuckle.

Looking at Hua Lei's rosy smiling face, Madam Pei was worried that Hua Lei didn't understand what she meant. After hesitating for a moment, she asked, "Lei'er, what I'm asking is, you and Jin'er...are you okay with the bed?"

Hualei blushed for a moment, not knowing how to answer. However, thinking that Mrs. Pei really cared about her, she couldn't help but hug Mrs. Pei's arms tightly and replied softly, "Well, very good."

Madam Pei breathed a sigh of relief, patted Hualei on the back, and said softly, "That's good, that's good."

After a pause, he continued, "Lei'er, Jin'er has never been a concubine before, so she may not know much about that aspect. Plus, she is young and hot-tempered, so she may not know the seriousness of the situation. You should take more responsibility and don't get angry with him.

But don't give in to him in everything, you know. You still have to take care of your health as a girl." Old Madam Pei stroked Hualei's back and taught her softly.

"Well, grandma, don't worry, we are fine, and my husband is very considerate." Hualei hugged Mrs. Pei's arm, and her eye sockets were a little hot. Whether a person is sincere to you can be known from a few simple words.

"This is the best. I feel relieved. I just like to see both you and Jin'er doing well." Old Madam Pei breathed a sigh of relief.

"Lei'er, in a few days, I will give you the account books of the winery, as well as the account books of my own dowry shops and farms.

From now on, these are all yours, so take good care of them." Mrs. Pei thought of the account book again and said to Hua Lei.

"No need, grandma. I can take over the account books of the winery. You can still keep your own dowry shop and farm. If you need my help, I can help you." Hua Lei declined.

"No, I'll give it all to you. I kept it for you. Don't worry, I've already given the other rooms what they should have given.

What is left is for you and Jin'er. You don't need to feel any pressure." Madam Pei said, holding Hua Lei's hand.

"Grandma, there are still many cousins ​​below." Hua Lei reminded.

"Don't worry, I know what's going on. Just take it obediently." Madam Pei smiled, "You are usually quite smart, why are you pushing away good things now that you have them? How stupid."

"Should I put the winery back into the public domain?" Hua Lei asked again.

"No need, it's still the same as before, the winery belongs to you and Jin'er, and you just need to pay 20% to the public school every year." Mrs. Pei said directly. After a pause, Mrs. Pei continued.

"Originally, I wanted to hand over all the household items of the Marquis' Mansion to you, but you are still on duty at the Silin Bureau, so it may be too late.

And I think that once you have seen the vast world outside, you will not care about that little bit of power in the backyard.

So, I think it’s better to leave it in the hands of the third son’s wife for the time being.

Although she is quite shrewd, she is a nice person and she is not secretive, so I feel quite at ease with her.

What do you think? If you want to take it, then I will ask her to hand over the household goods of the Marquis' Mansion to you?" Old Madam Pei asked Hua Lei.

"No, no, grandma, I think you are right. Third Aunt is a very good person and she is also very good at managing the family. Just let her continue to manage the family.

As for me, I lack the ability to manage the household, and I don't have enough time. I think that although the salary of this deputy envoy is not high, it would be a pity to resign.

So I decided not to resign from my official position for the time being and just keep doing it. I also asked my husband for his opinion and he agreed that I could go out.

Grandmother, don't worry. If I have a child and my body doesn't allow it, I will put the child first. "Hua Lei was worried that Mrs. Pei wanted to have a great-grandson as soon as possible, so she would resign and go home, so she promised first.

"Well, you two can decide on this. You have always been a smart kid, I am not worried. Your vision and ability are there, it would be a pity to just resign.

If you work hard, you will be no worse than Jin'er." Mrs. Pei patted Hualei's hand and said, "Besides, I think that even if you have a child, you will handle the affairs of the government and the child well." Mrs. Pei looked trusting.
