The next day, Pei Zhu and Ye Xi prepared to go to the Guanyin Temple. Ye Xi rarely went to the temple to pray. In modern times, people went to the temple for sightseeing. In ancient times, she used to go with her mother and almost never had to worry about anything. So today, she didn't prepare anything and wanted to go out with Pei Zhu empty-handed.

Pei Zhu, who was waiting outside the gate, couldn't help but feel a headache when he saw Ye Xi's behavior. He also noticed that Ye Xi didn't seem to have a fixed rule of burning incense and worshipping Buddha since she entered the house, but he knew that Ye's mother had this habit and felt that Ye Xi was different from ordinary women. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at the purse on his waist. Logically speaking, the embroidery should be "passable" after eight or nine years of practice, but now it looks like a beginner.

Pei Zhu sighed and shook his head: "Xi Niang's heart is like a child's. I am really worried about my husband."

"Why do you say that to me, my husband?" Ye Xi was originally preparing to go out happily, but was suddenly confused by Pei Zhu's words. She stared at Pei Zhu and asked in confusion.

Pei Zhu lovingly scratched Ye Xi's nose with the back of his finger and explained, "They say you act like a child and don't understand the ways of the world. How come we didn't even bring a fruit plate or incense when we went to the temple?"

Ye Xi suddenly realized: "Can't we just donate incense oil?" In modern times, they all did the same. At most, they would buy a bunch of incense in the temple. No one would bring a fruit plate.

Pei Zhu smiled and shook his head, then held Ye Xi's hand and got on the carriage. After the carriage went away, a man poked his head out of a nearby alley, took a look at the carriage, and left in a hurry.

What Ye Xi didn't expect was that Pei Zhu actually took her to worship the Goddess of Childbirth and added a large sum of money for incense. She understood what Pei Zhu meant. She thought of the noble's instructions, and the uneasiness in her heart came back. The things she had deliberately avoided in the past two days finally came back.

After nightfall, Pei Zhu pushed hard against Ye Xi. After a while, he suddenly leaned over and asked Ye Xi eagerly, "Xi Niang, can I go in there?"

Ye Xi was silent for a long time. When Pei Zhu thought she would not respond, Ye Xi hugged him back and agreed. Pei Zhu was overjoyed and no longer forbearing. He poured all his love into her body. Pei Zhu found that Ye Xi was not in a good mood after they worshipped the Goddess of Childbearing, and thought she was unwilling. However, they agreed at that time not to have children within one year after marriage. But now it has been a year and a half, which is half a year later than the original plan. However, this cannot be blamed on Ye Xi. After all, he was always running around outside in the second year. Now everything is getting better, and he has time to go home. This matter must be taken seriously.

Ye Xi's behavior tonight made Pei Zhu confused. Although Ye Xi didn't want to, she cooperated when he wanted her to, and behaved as before. But when he asked her, she hesitated for a while. He was really puzzled. After leaving her body, he hugged Ye Xi from behind and asked anxiously: "Xi Niang, don't you want to have a child now?"

"No, I'm just not mentally prepared yet." Ye Xi replied. She was willing, but she had a problem that she hadn't solved yet, and she didn't know what to do. She was worried that disobeying that person would implicate Pei Zhu and the child. Ye Xi even began to pray that the nobleman would either let her go or die so that she could be free. As soon as the thought came out, she was stunned. It turned out that she also had such a vicious side, but she had no other choice. She had no power and no influence, and cursing was the only thing she could do.
