Pei Tong really didn't know what to do.
He came to question Pei Yan.
In the end, Pei Yan was not wrong, but his father became the one who was wrong.
What position does he have to question Pei Yan
Pei Tong didn't want to divide the clan.
Although he grew up in the capital, he knew very early on that his people are in the south and his roots are in Lin'an. If one day he encounters difficulties outside, he can still ask his people to help him. Go back to Lin'an.
But Pei Yan forced him to make a choice.
He seemed to be standing at a crossroads, not knowing where to go to reach his destination.
Pei Yan can be regarded as seeing clearly.
His nephew is just an uninhibited one.
When Pei Yan was his age, he had already decided to be an official in the capital, and he wanted to be a high-ranking official with a long history. He even has his own plans for how he will live in the future, what kind of wife he will marry, and how he will raise his son.
Of course, now he is thousands of miles away from what he imagined before, but it doesn't mean that he doesn't have a plan for his future life.
His elder brother's biggest failure may be that he failed to cultivate the ability of his two sons to live independently!
Otherwise, how could such a big boy be fooled into not knowing the north, south, east, and west by just a few words!
Pei Yan curled his lips in disdain, thinking that if it continues like this, there will be no conclusion until next year. He doesn't care. In the past, when he was arguing with his colleagues in the court, he often refused to eat or drink, and his teacher joked about it. , He should be allowed to be the censor.
But Yu Tang couldn't do it.
He found that she ate half an apple or pear every day when she took a nap, and occasionally had two snacks in the afternoon.
Yu Tang stayed with him all this afternoon, and he didn't have a chance to have a serious drink of tea or snacks.
Now that it's time for dinner, we can't make everyone hungry because of Pei Tong, right
Pei Yan decided to cut the mess quickly. He said to Pei Tong: "In this case, when the uncle of the Yang family comes over, let him give you advice! After you have discussed it, please invite Master Gu to come and talk. Gu, what do you think?"
The grievances between the Pei family and the Yang family are a mess, no matter what, they know what they should know and what they should not know. Gu Chang is different, Pei Yan does not want Gu Chang to know about Pei You supporting the third prince with 200,000 taels of silver, and giving the third prince a tip-off—the more people know about some things, the harder it is to keep them secret . Even if it is killing people to silence them, too many people have died, and it is a troublesome thing.
Gu Xi immediately stood up and said, "I remember it!"
She can't remember!
Partition walls have ears. No matter how close she is to her elder brother, she dare not tell her elder brother that the Pei family can destroy the nine clans! What if her elder brother told Yin Shi? The Yin family's aunt is famous for taking care of her mother's family. At that time, the Yin family will know, the Zhang family will know, and the Li family may also know... The Pei family will be too dangerous.
She used to think that her husband would move out of the Pei family after he was named on the gold list, so that he could live a happy life for the two of them, and also get some benefits under the banner of the Pei family's children. But now it seems that Pei Tong is even more stupid than she imagined. He believed the words of Mr. Yang and was encouraged to challenge the elders in the family without saying anything. If it was her, she would have already tried to get the evidence that Mr. Yang said, and send it to the elders in the family as a certificate of nomination, so as to seek more benefits and resources.
Maybe this is her fate!
The Li Duan in the match did not take responsibility, and the married Pei Tong was also weak.
Gu Xi felt anxious standing under the scorching sun. If she couldn't find a way to find a shade, no one would care whether she was hot or not, or whether she would get sunburned.
She gritted her teeth, looked respectful, but clenched her hands tightly into fists and said: "Since I am the daughter-in-law of the Pei family, I naturally listen to the elders in everything. My brother, I don't want him to worry about me either. There are some things, as long as our own family knows."
This is a promise not to tell Gu Chang.
Pei Tong was stunned, and seemed to have seen Gu Xi clearly at this moment.
Although she likes to step on the highs and lows, and is good at following the wind, it cannot be denied that she is smart and she is willing to be shameless.
Such people usually live well in big families.
It's not like his mother, who puts on airs and doesn't come down, and even fights with her grandmother.
Pei Tong lowered his eyelids.
Pei Xuan and the second wife nodded in relief, and the second wife said to Gu Xiwen: "You are right if you think so! No matter how good your natal family is, it is also the home of your parents and elder brother. If you marry into the Pei family, you will have children in the Pei family." To raise children, you are the support of your children, and this will be your future home. Brother, you should take care of those who should be taken care of, and assist those who should be helped, but you must maintain a degree like you do at this time." Still feeling emotional Said, "I thought you were still a little naive before, so I was wrong. Life and death are at stake, and we know how to choose. We parents are just worried that you will not be able to live your own life. If your mother is still there , I don’t know how happy I am to hear you say that!”
Gu Xi was very surprised.
She thought she did a good job before, but she didn't expect that in the eyes of the second wife, she was still too "childish".
It can be seen that she does not make people feel perfect in dealing with people.
Gu Xi looked at Yu Tang.
Yu Tang stood beside Pei Yan, her hand was still being held by Pei Yan, she wanted to go back to her seat and sit down, but Pei Yan seemed unwilling to let go, Yu Tang had no choice but to continue to hold hands with Pei Yan, and continued to stand. by his side.
Is she doing that well
Gu Xi sneered in his heart.
Not necessarily
If she were the second wife, she could pick out a lot of Yu Tang's faults...
As Gu Xi thought about it, a young servant came in to report that Master Yang and Gu Chang had both arrived, and they had been ordered by Pei Yan to have tea in the hall.
Pei Yan didn't even think about it, and asked someone to invite the elder of the Yang family over: "Explain to Mr. Gu that it's an important matter, and I'll wrong him to sit a little longer."
The servant went away in response.
Pei Tong said nervously: "Really, do you really want to divide the clan?"
Only when things like dividing the family property and the clan would all the uncles from the natal family be invited over.
Pei Yan snorted coldly and did not respond.
Others naturally can't speak anymore, as for what they think, then no one can control anyone else.
Soon, Master Yang rushed in quickly.
Although he tried his best to hide it, there was still a smug smile on his face.
Pei Yan looked down on him even more.
With the attitude of the old master of the Yang family, Pei Tong actually still messed around with him, I really don't know if he should praise the old master of the Yang family for his wit and scheming? He still scolded Pei Tong for his incompetence, and he couldn't even see people.
He was not polite, and asked Mr. Yang to sit down, and after the servant girl served tea and retired, he cut to the chase and talked about the purpose of inviting Mr. Yang this time.
The elder of the Yang family's expression became more and more dispirited the more he heard it, and he was shocked for the last time, and he didn't speak for a long time.
No matter how stupid Pei Tong was, he knew that he had messed up the matter.
The corners of his mouth fluttered, and he called "Uncle" in a voice like a gnat, staring pitifully at the old man of the Yang family, as if he wanted the old man to save him from the fire.
The elder of the Yang family saw it and scolded his mother in his heart.
Be it the matter of the two hundred thousand taels of silver or the assassination of the second prince, not only did he know that he was also Pei You's accomplice, he just didn't expect that Pei You was poisoned to death by his father.
Pei Yancai didn't care about him, and asked coldly: "My father killed my brother, do you have any opinions?"
The father wants the son to die, but the son must die.
It's just that such confused fathers are rare. But for people like the Pei family, if it gets out, people will only say that Mrs. Pei made a decisive decision, was resolute and calm, and if he didn't put the label of "unfilial" on Pei You's head, he would be a good person who didn't hurt people.
Elder Yang was shocked by the cause of Pei You's death, but more worried.
It stands to reason that no matter who happened to such a family, they would have to hide it, but the Pei family turned upside down in front of him like beans in a bamboo tube. Pei family, what does this mean
Do you want the Yang family to join the Pei family
The Yang family wanted to marry the Pei family, didn't they just want to share weal and woe with the Pei family? After the Pei family flatly refused, they suddenly told him the secret that everyone feared was not hidden deep enough.
What is Pei Yan going to do
If he is plotting against the Yang family, what purpose is he trying to achieve
The elder of the Yang family has changed from being confident before to being ignorant.
He couldn't help looking at Pei Xuan.
I want to find out something from Pei Xuan, an honest man.
But to his disappointment, Pei Xuan was not only expressionless, but also looked at him with guarded eyes.
Elder Yang secretly smiled wryly, so he could only follow Pei Yan's words and murmur: "You say that my brother-in-law's death is related to the old man, what evidence do you have?"
Pei Yan had always looked down upon the Yang family's attitude of pretending they hadn't seen the coffin. Seeing that Mr. Yang was repeating his old tricks, no one in the circle was too lazy to talk to him, and said bluntly: "If you don't want to believe it, then Let’s just pretend that my elder brother died of a sudden illness. It’s just that your nephew listened to your words and suspected that I had harmed my elder brother. Now there are two ways to go. One is for you to sue me. However, I want to paraphrase your words , you better have evidence, otherwise I will sue Pei Tong for 'disobedience'. Second, you have no evidence to prove that I harmed brother, and you can't get over this hurdle in your heart, so let Pei Tong go out and live alone. Also It’s what I just said, branching.” After finishing speaking, he looked at the leaky clock and said, “I’ll give you an hour, and you make a decision quickly. Or you and your uncle, Pei Tong, go straight to the west. The yamen of the Dali Division is over there. Or ask Mr. Yang to go out of the flower hall to the west and help Pei Tong to count the belongings, and I will ask someone to preside over the separation."
When he spoke, his expression was very stern, and his tone was very firm, giving people a feeling that he would do what he said.
In fact, he has always been a man of his word, so no one dares to neglect what he said.
This is especially true at this time.
Pei Yanteng stood up, glanced coldly at Pei Tong, and said, "There is no one idle here, and we can't just wait. Pei Tong, you husband and wife and your uncle can discuss it while having dinner. !Second brother, let's go to entertain Mr. Gu, we can't call Mr. Gu over, let Mr. Gu sit on the bench, and no one even entertains dinner, right? Ah Tang, you accompany the second sister-in-law and A Dan They eat dinner together, lest any of the servants have a long tongue and frighten the children!"
In this way, the eldest wife's natal family is invited, and it is not allowed to be heard by others. The servants at home will definitely whisper in private.
