Mrs. Pei fainted again on the spot. Pei Chi, who was in custody, held back tears and shouted, "Yu'er, take care of mother!"
Pei Yu's eyes were red with anger. She asked the maid to look at her mother. She couldn't bear it and ran over to push away the two soldiers who were guarding her father. She said angrily: "It's my brother who broke the law. He has nothing to do with my father. Why did you take my father away without any evidence?"
"Miss Pei, of course you won't come here to arrest someone without evidence. When Mr. Pei breaks the law, he often does things under the reputation of Mr. Pei. Do you think this has anything to do with it?" The man said calmly. smiled.
After hearing this, Pei Yu looked at Pei Chi in confusion and disbelief. Pei Chi lowered his head with red eyes and a guilty conscience, saying nothing.
Pei Yu cried angrily in an instant: "Pei Chi, you bastard! How could you do this!"
Pei Yu watched helplessly as King Cheng's men took away Pei Chi and his father, and wanted to drive them out of Pei's house, saying that they would blockade Pei's house and investigate Pei's house.
What made Pei Yu feel that the bullying was too much. These officers and soldiers did not even let them pack their valuables. They only asked them to pack some food and clothing and sent them away.
Before leaving, Mrs. Pei looked at the Pei Mansion reluctantly and asked one of the officers and soldiers, could they still go back
The officers and soldiers just replied expressionlessly: "As long as Mr. Pei does not break the law, the Pei Mansion will naturally return it."
Pei Yu pulled her mother to her side and said angrily: "Mom, don't worry, dad will stand upright and will not be afraid of investigation! It won't take long for us to go home!"
However... Pei Yu was, after all, a wealthy little girl in the Pei family. She suddenly lost her home, had no savings, and even a place to live was a problem.
But she can't let her mother live on the street...
Pei Yu could only go to the pawn shop once, gritted her teeth, and pawned her favorite necklace.
With the money she got in exchange, she rented a small courtyard so that her mother could settle down.
Pei Yu only asked one maid to stay to take care of Mrs. Pei. She sent the others away to their respective homes. She had no money to support them in this situation.
Mrs. Pei sat in the room and cried silently. She didn't want Pei Yu to worry, but she was really sad...
Pei Yu knew that her mother was very sad, and because of this, she hated Cheng Wang even more for arresting people indiscriminately.
Perhaps in the eyes of others, King Cheng was a good official who was loved by the people, but Pei Yu hated him.
In Pei Yu's view, the Chengwang only cares about his own great achievements. He doesn't care whether his father has accepted bribes or not. He only sees that his brother has taken bribes and will also implicate his father. He just feels that arresting his father will show his selflessness!
However, her father is not such a person at all!
Yet he framed his father like this!
Even if dad's grievances are cleared in the future, who is dad? Why should he suffer such injustice? Why should he be imprisoned? !
The more Pei Yu thought about it, the more he hated it.
"Yu'er..." While eating dinner, Mrs. Pei saw Pei Yu holding a bowl in her hand and biting her chopsticks tightly, so she called her hoarsely.
Pei Yu came to her senses, pursed her lips and said, "What's wrong, mother..."
"Still thinking about it?"
Pei Yu said in a low voice: "Mother, isn't it the same?"
"I believe in your father, but... I don't trust your brother..."
When Pei Chi was mentioned, Pei Yu became completely angry: "Mom, don't mention it. If it weren't for that bastard, how could it have hurt daddy! It also made it impossible for us to even go home!"
