Peng Caichen straightened his neck and shouted in embarrassment and shame: "I didn't! I didn't!"
He really didn't have any girlfriend
Wei An had always looked down on him, and now that something like this had happened, Wei An must have thought even less of him. Thinking of this, he was stunned.
Why should he care what Wei An thinks? He doesn't even think highly of Wei An!
Wang, the judge outside, repeatedly and anxiously asked people to come in to urge him. Master Peng was stunned and had no time to think about it, so Peng Caichen was taken away.
Madam Peng stamped her feet, bit her lip, and looked at her husband, anxiously saying, "How could you let him be taken away?! He said he didn't have any young ladies! He's a good boy and he wouldn't lie!"
Moreover, my son originally had a good reputation and was a good and obedient child. Now he was imprisoned in Shuntian Prefecture because of this matter. Whether it is proven in the future or not, it is bad for his future. He is going to take the imperial examination and become an official. How can he continue to study after such a thing happened? !
The Wei family is indeed a den of disasters. Anyone who encounters them will have no good ending.
She was indignant.
Master Peng had already turned to look at her, his eyes suddenly turned cold, and he asked her with his hands behind his back in a hoarse voice: "Let's not talk about this for now, tell me first, what's the matter with the letter to the Zou family?"
Mrs. Peng's eyes flickered.
She really did write the letter to the Zou family, and had someone send it out not long ago.
The people she sent out have not returned yet, and the Zou family has not responded yet. It is not known whether the letter was really taken away by the hanged woman.
She shook her head, bit her lip and frowned, "That's rubble, how can it be worthy of our son? Xici should be the one to match. Yiru is a good child, talented and beautiful. Except for her name not being as famous as Wei'an, she is better than Wei'an in every way. I don't want to let our son down."
This is a mother's wish.
Her son was good in every way, but he had to make such great sacrifices for the family. It was really unfair and she couldn't get over it.
"What are you talking about, sister-in-law?" The second wife hurried over and couldn't help getting angry when she heard what the first wife said: "I advised you at the time that even if you want to fight for this, it's not at this moment. Let's get the marriage done first, and then talk about other things. At that time, we can discuss raising a co-wife and other things..."
The second wife was really angry.
Such a good thing had caused so much trouble for no reason. Besides, the first lady said that Peng Caichen had been wronged. Who wouldn't feel wronged? Her fourth wife had married far away, and she might not be able to see her in this lifetime. What else did she say
Who in this family doesn't live for this family? Who doesn't live for the restoration of Jing'an Marquis Mansion
Why is it that the eldest lady’s son is so extra precious
The second wife felt truly aggrieved.
She was very respectful to her sister-in-law, the eldest lady, at home, and the eldest lady usually had the final say.
However, the eldest lady had always taught and urged them not to hold the Peng family back, but in the end it was the eldest lady who held everyone back.
In all the time she had been married into the Peng family, she had never publicly disobeyed the eldest lady's wishes like this. Mrs. Peng glanced at her and felt a little depressed.
The Second Lady did try to persuade her at first, but she really wouldn't listen.
Master Peng frowned, his eyebrows twitching slightly: "What do you mean by co-wife?"
The second master also looked at the second lady.
The second wife said, "After my eldest sister-in-law planned to marry Princess Shouning, she immediately gave Caichen the niece of the Zou family as his co-wife. I advised her to take it slow, but she didn't say anything at the time, and later she actually sent the letter anyway."
The letter eventually fell into the hands of the girl that Peng Caichen was dating.
Master Peng felt a headache and rubbed his forehead tiredly.
The second master also blamed Mrs. Peng for her bad deeds, but he was the younger brother-in-law and couldn't say anything. He had to turn to Mr. Peng and ask him, "Brother, what should we do now?"
Master Peng had already sorted out the whole thing. He waved his hands in annoyance: "What can we do? It's just a misunderstanding."
The fact is that Mrs. Peng did have other plans to find a wife for Peng Caichen, and she put it into action, but she did not expect that her son actually had a lover outside.
Moreover, this lover was so stupid that he didn't even know that the family she was referring to in the letter was not the Wei family, but Madam Peng's family.
He told the people in the room again, sighed and said: "But this is no big deal, it's not a big deal, it's just a misunderstanding, it will be fine after explaining it clearly. I will go to the Wei family now..."
Mrs. Peng felt something was wrong and quickly grabbed his arm: "No."
She said puzzledly: "The letter I wrote to my mother's family clearly stated that it was for my niece, to pick up my niece. If that girl could really bribe the person who delivered the letter, then... how could she not tell the difference between the Zou family and the Wei family? Even if she wanted to hang herself, she should have been hanged at the door of our house or the Zou family. Why did she hang herself at the door of the Wei family?"
Master Peng was a little surprised.
Too.
It was only then that he reacted.
They don't even know the name of the dead girl. At this point, they should send her family members away and ask them not to cause trouble.
He reacted and quickly urged his men to go out and inquire.
The second wife was dissatisfied: "How can it be that simple? How can the Wei family tolerate this?"
Madam Peng was becoming impatient with the Second Madam's constant complaints and asked in a bad tone, "The Wei family hasn't caused any trouble yet, why did the Second Brother and Sister-in-law start causing trouble for them first?!"
The sisters-in-law have been friends for many years, but they have never been so impolite to each other.
Mrs. Peng opened her mouth to retort, but was stopped by Mr. Peng. She had no choice but to stop, but still muttered in a low voice: "You say one thing and do another..."
The servant went out and came back in, kneeling down in front of Master Peng and Madam Peng, who were already a little anxious, with a mournful face, and cried in a shrill voice: "Master, someone brought a coffin to our door... and said that they wanted us to pay for their daughter's life!"
"What?!"
Master Peng pushed Madam Peng away, his veins throbbing with anger: "How can this be possible!"
Are these people never going to be finished or what
I just asked why he wasn't hanged at the door of Peng's house, but now people are carrying a coffin to the door. This is much more impressive than hanging himself directly at the Peng's house.
The public was already boiling over the death of a person, and now we heard that the girl's family came carrying a coffin to the door to ask for justice. How can this be tolerated
The steward kowtowed and stopped the second master from going out: "Second master, please don't go out. It's very lively outside. There are people watching the fun in three layers inside and outside..."
