Gu Xi also looked at Pei Yan suddenly.
Ever since her ambiguous confession was rejected, she always thought that Pei Yan hated her and looked down on her.
Unexpectedly, she was affirmed by Pei Yan under such circumstances.
She is smarter than Pei Tong
is that true
Does Pei Yan really think so
Gu Xi's nose was a little sour, and his mind was corrected.
She stepped forward to salute Pei Xuan and Pei Yan, and said in a low voice: "I dare not be praised by the two uncles. My husband is upright and cares about the family relationship. I'm afraid he doesn't have the ability to do this for the family. This matter, only the father of the third uncle can decide the situation with one word, and I ask the two uncles to investigate clearly."
This is what it means not to get involved in this matter.
Gu Xi is still as shrewd as in her previous life.
Yu Tang sighed in his heart.
Pei Yan didn't want to let her go.
Regardless of whether Pei Tong and Gu Xi were arguing for real or fake, it was originally a particularly disdainful and cold-hearted thing for Yang's family to threaten their family with his deceased elder brother to help them. His sister-in-law always felt that their family didn't take advantage of Pei's family, and it was all thanks to her natal family that they could be today. It is understandable for women to prefer the family that gave birth to them. But if his two nephews are influenced by their mother and think so, why should he raise a white-eyed wolf? With this skill, it is better to adopt a few abandoned children or orphans, at least eat and drink his, and know who to do things for.
He glanced at Gu Xi indifferently, and asked Pei Tong: "Do you know why the Yang family insists on marrying our family?"
Of course Pei Tong knew.
If he didn't know, he would definitely not agree to talk to his eldest aunt.
Originally, he wanted to gradually alienate the Yang family. But the two uncles of the Yang family are now in prison, and they are threatening their family with his father's affairs. Based on his understanding of the elders in the family, his second uncle can say that his third uncle will definitely not let the Yang family go. If he doesn't make peace with it, the life of the Yang family will be difficult—even if his third uncle fishes out his two uncles under temporary pressure, he will double his revenge on the Yang family in the future. This is what he is worried about. cause of fear.
But when he was swept away by Pei Yan's gaze, his heart felt as if it was tightly pinched by a big hand, and his heart palpitations made him hesitate to speak: "I, I know. So I want to persuade Uncle..."
The corners of Pei Yan's mouth curled up slightly.
Gu Xi shouted "no" in his heart.
She took advantage of the opportunity of quarreling with Pei Tong to bring the elders of the family here, just to separate herself and Pei Tong. When Pei Tong said this, it was obviously in the hands of Pei Yan. Her hard work was wasted. .
She turned around and glared at Pei Tong, just as she was about to ask for help, when Pei Xuan, who had never thought of being lenient and magnanimous, suddenly slapped the table and shouted sharply: "A Tong, look at what you look like now Did my elder brother teach you like this when he was alive? Have you read all the sage books for so many years?"
Everyone was shocked by him at once.
His face was livid, uglier than Pei Yan, and he pointed at Pei Tong angrily: "What is the Yang family using to threaten us? It's your father's business. Let's not say whether this matter is true or not. Death is the most important thing. Your father is gone, and they are still relentlessly involving your father. Do you think such a family is worth dealing with? Or, do you think this is nothing? Not only did you not speak for your father , you still want to make peace for the Yang family. In your heart, is there your father? Is there a Pei family? , Is this what you learned in the Yang family? Ah Tong, you are my elder brother's eldest son, the eldest grandson of our family. What you have done this time really disappoints me!"
It is said that honest people are particularly cruel when they lose their temper.
Yu Tang learned the lesson this time.
Pei Tong was so scolded that his face was red, and he didn't say a word for a long time.
Gu Xi didn't dare to say anything.
The second wife wanted to persuade her, but after thinking about her husband's words, she felt that it was quite reasonable not to say anything. She also remembered that her mother-in-law did not agree to marry the Yang family. The family is not right, and the usual conflicts with the sister-in-law are not because the mother-in-law is picky about the daughter-in-law, but because the Yang family's education is not in place. Like her, as well as her younger brother and daughter-in-law, they all get along very well with their mother-in-law.
Thinking of this, she glanced at Yu Tang.
Yu Tang was looking at Pei Yan as if asking for help.
Pei Yan sighed in her heart, and had no choice but to come forward to save the situation, and her voice was much softer than before, saying: "A Tong, in your generation, you are the boss, you are the example and role model, what you do will affect you Brothers and sisters below. You should think carefully about this matter? There is nothing wrong with Mrs. Gu in this matter today, so please accompany Mrs. Gu. It’s getting late, so we’ll go back first. What’s the matter? Let’s talk about it tomorrow.”
The implication is that you will give me an answer tomorrow if you want to help the Yang family.
As he spoke, he winked at Pei Xuan, signaling him to leave first.
Pei Xuan was furious, snorted coldly, and stood up.
Pei Tong was also in a mess, and when he heard the words, he said yes, and sent his two uncles and aunts out.
On the way, the second wife couldn't help feeling: "It's a pity that my sister-in-law raised these two children like this."
But Yu Tang felt that it might not necessarily be the eldest wife's fault, otherwise how could the Yang family have something to do with the Pei family
She thought of Pei Yan running around for this matter, if the Yang family really didn't mention what Pei You left behind and just begged for it, even for Pei Tong's sake, Pei Yan wouldn't be able to let him go.
At that time, it will still be Pei Yan's business!
Yu Tang felt uncomfortable, and couldn't help but said: "When uncle was alive, the two children grew up by his side, right? Even if they are sent to the Yang family to study, uncle should have agreed, right?"
When she said this, the second wife was okay, but the brothers Pei Yan and Pei Xuan were all taken aback.
Pei Xuan even murmured: "When Brother Ah was alive, Ah Tong and Ah Fei both studied with Eldest Brother. It was after Eldest Brother passed away that sister-in-law wanted to send their brothers to Yang's family to study. When I was in the capital, I didn't study with the Yang family..."
It can be seen that it is not the Yang family that affects the two brothers, but the dead Pei You.
For the rest of the journey, no one spoke, and the atmosphere was very depressing. The two brothers said something hastily, and then they broke up at the intersection.
Yu Tang grabbed Pei Yan's clothes and asked softly, "Did I say something wrong?"
"No!" Seeing that Yu Tang was a little uneasy, Pei Yan hugged Yu Tang lightly and kissed her on the forehead before saying, "I don't know the true face of Mount Lu, but because I'm in this mountain. There are some things, just We just don’t want to think about it.”
If you think too much, you will inevitably feel fear.
His radiant elder brother, known as the number one talented person in the south of the Yangtze River, may believe that the Yang family is better than their two brothers.
Otherwise, where did the Yang family come from.
Pei Yan felt uncomfortable and couldn't fall asleep even after tossing and turning.
Yu Tang also stayed up all night, and when he woke up the next day, his eye circles were blue.
Pei Yan felt even more uncomfortable when she saw it, so she asked Qing Yuan to bring an egg and apply it to her eyes herself.
Yu Tang shook Pei Yan's hand, and said softly: "I'm fine. Even if Mrs. Yin comes over, I can take a nap at noon. But you, are you going out today? If you have nothing to do, you can rest at home! Aren't you Said, it is the Yang family who are anxious, not us. Even if the uncle left evidence, the Yang family would not dare to use it casually, otherwise their family would not be able to escape. "
Pei Yan really didn't want to go out today, and he didn't want Yu Tang to get caught up in it and be frightened, so he smiled: "Why don't we go out for a stroll? Speaking of which, you have been in the capital for so long, and I haven't been with you well .”
Yu Tang wanted to make Pei Yan happy, so he immediately agreed with a smile, and asked him, "Where are we going for a stroll? What should we bring?"
Because it was decided temporarily, Pei Yan didn't think of any good ideas for a while, and said: "How about we go shopping in the street? Buy something for Mom and let them take it back. There is also the house of father-in-law, and your eldest Uncle's house." Speaking of this, it also talked about Yu Yuan, "What is he doing these days? I'm not at home every day, and I haven't asked him. Is his business going well?"
Yu Tang smiled and nodded.
The Pei family allowed his elder brother to live here as a way of expressing their opinion and support. The people in the sixth department would more or less look at the Pei family's face. The Peng family simply did not recommend a local lacquerware master in Fujian. Say hello.
"It has been reported." She said, "I'll wait for the official announcement from the Ministry of Rites. He will take advantage of these few days to visit this and that, saying that he knows more people, and he will know sooner if there is any news in the future." I saw that the matter of the tribute has not been officially settled, so I didn't tell you specifically."
"That's good!" Pei Yan said, "It's best for him to be on his own." Otherwise, even if you rely on Pei's family to do business, others will look down on you from the bottom of their hearts. When dealing with Yuan, it is difficult for really beneficial news to reach Yu Yuan's ears, and it is also difficult for Yu Yuan to become bigger and stronger in business and stand out from others.
The two talked about where to go to play.
Pei Wu begged to see him, saying that someone from the Tao family had sent a post and wanted to visit Pei Yan tomorrow.
Yu Tang was stunned.
"I'm still wondering why the Tao family hasn't come to Beijing to do business on Wanshou next year!" Pei Yan explained to her with a smile: "The Tao family used to be in the grocery business, so they did a good job in maritime trade. Those Western chime bells Dolls, dolls, scented dew, etc. are almost all their business. For the emperor’s birthday, who doesn’t want to buy something different. They must not be absent.” Then he asked Yu Tang in a negotiating tone, “How about , let's go to Tao's shop today? You can go and see if there is anything good to buy. I saw someone bought a doll to give away last time, and you can buy one too!"
"Why didn't you buy one and give it to me?" Yu Tang said dissatisfiedly.
Pei Yan said disapprovingly: "I think that doll is weird, but you never play cards according to the rules, maybe you will think it's good. You should go and see for yourself. In case you buy it back, it's okay to throw it away. It's okay if you don't throw it away. no."
