Today at noon, Li Nuo didn't eat at Pei Zhe's house.
Although he very much enjoyed the dishes prepared by Mrs. Pei, he felt embarrassed always eating at someone else's home.
Of course, the main reason was that Lord Pei had gone out incognito today to inspect the public sentiment, leaving Mrs. Pei alone at home, so Li Nuo needed to avoid any appearance of impropriety.
Even though he and Mrs. Pei were more than a decade apart in age, people in Daxia married young, with most having married and had children by the age of eighteen.
Mrs. Pei had been married for many years and was only in her mid-thirties this year, still retaining her charm, and Li Nuo didn't want people to gossip.
In the past, he always avoided being alone with her.
Fortunately, the Song Residence was not far from the County Magistrate's Office, so Li Nuo could go back to the Song Residence for lunch and even take a short nap in his wife's room afterward.
