Chapter 327: Defend the Eight Front Teeth (1)_1
Shuang Xi also felt that his young master was too good to Pei Qin, valued her too much. When the New Year’s time had come, several families proposed marriage matches to the young master, and he had turned them all down, saying he needed to observe mourning for his fiancée who had died because of him; only after he made a name for himself would he marry someone young and beautiful, which angered the lady of the house so much she wanted to beat him.
Just after his birthday had passed, he came a long way to find Pei Qin again. Shuang Xi worried that once Pei Qin’s mourning period ended, his young master would bring her home and insist on marrying her. Wouldn’t that turn the house upside down!?

Startled, Grandma Miao quickly turned and walked away. After all, she had seen that Young Master Shen from the wealthy family was staying at Pei Qin’s house.
Shen Songming had already come inside carrying his luggage, turned his head to glance at Shuang Xi, and without much thought, called out to Pei Qin, "I’ve finished the work! Come out and see!"
"Brother Song Ming! My older sister isn’t at home!" Pei Yuan came out to receive him.
Pei Qian quickly said, "She’s at the workshop, I’ll go get her!" and hurriedly ran off.
Song Ming frowned, what was she doing at the workshop? To see that pretty boy Mo Jiu? He asked Pei Yuan, "Does your older sister often go to the workshop?"
