Delicate Flower - Chapter 334
[Chapter 332 Sigh]
Mrs. Yang was speechless. No matter how arrogant Mrs. Pei was, without Pei You’s support, she did not dare to contradict Pei Lao’an. In addition, Pei Lao’an mentioned her two sons and asked them if they wanted to take them away. She didn’t dare to say a word.
The dispute dissipated when the thunder was loud and the rain was light.
It’s just that Mrs. Pei cried for a long time after she went back, and Mrs. Yang just sighed and didn’t know how to comfort her.
On the other hand, Pei Tong, after returning from Gu’s house, heard that his mother and grandmother were arguing, his expression darkened, and he was alone for a long time before he got up and went to Mrs. Pei’s place.
Gu Xi’s maid, Hexiang, looked worried and asked Gu Xi, “Do you want to persuade Uncle?”
Gu Xi took off her make-up in the mirror, thinking about what her brother told her, “When you don’t have the ability to clean up the mess, don’t mix yourself up. Let’s go in.” She said lightly, “No,” and ordered He Xiang to help her count her dowry. She said, “My brother and sister-in-law will leave for the capital in two days, so I’ll send some rituals over there.
” Use a dowry?
He Xiang said, “The eldest young master has always loved you. If you send something, he will definitely not accept it.”
Gu Xi did not speak, and glanced at He Xiang.
This is the meaning of asking Hexiang to spend less time and do as she instructs.
He Xiang had no choice but to count Gu Xi’s dowry.
Gu Xi sat in front of the dressing table for a long time without moving.
When the ceremony was officially over, two more sheets of paper were added to her dowry list. The items on these two papers were all given to her by her little sister-in-law, Yin Shi, from her dowry.
She knew that it was her sister-in-law to make face for her.
But she was still very uncomfortable.
When did she, Gu Xi, fall to this point?
She decided to fold the things her sister-in-law gave her into silver and give it back to her sister-in-law little by little.
Otherwise, how could she, a little sister-in-law, raise her head and speak in front of her sister-in-law?
Only in this way, she has to calculate carefully how much money she has in her hand so that she will not be shy and stretched.
Gu Xi had collected everything here, and wanted to wait for Pei Tong to come back to say hello to him, but after all three knocks, Pei Tong still hadn’t come back.
She was a little worried, but didn’t want to get involved in the matter between Pei Tong’s mother and son, so she sent the wet nurse to inquire quietly.
When the wet nurse came back, her face was not very good, and Fu Er told her: “The mother and son were arguing, and the uncle and wife were fanning the flames, and the eldest wife was going to hang herself!”
Gu Xi heard a fire in his heart.
This eldest lady has no eyesight. What time is it now? The whole family relies on Pei Yan to enjoy their meals, and they still take Joe there.
As the saying goes, it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge in ten years.
Can’t she bear it?
Endure until Pei Tong studied and entered an official position and was promoted well?
Gu Xi was a little annoyed by the eldest wife, she wanted to go to bed first, but she felt that the newly married Yan Er was too indifferent.
The nurse mentioned to her: “You have to take the opportunity to win over the uncle’s heart. Otherwise, if the eldest wife makes trouble for other things in the future, you will definitely suffer.
” Mrs.
“I’ll save it.” Gu Xi said, instructing the wet nurse, “You should also change your name, so as not to be overheard.”
Like the Gu family, the Pei family lives together with a large family of people. It’s easy to fall into the trap.
Gu Xi couldn’t hold back and said, “Do you know what the Yu family did today?” The
nurse knew her heart and reminded her: “You don’t want to be the Yu family, you are used to talking and it’s easy to miss the point. .” Then he said, “Lao’an is in a bad mood today,
the second wife seems to be packing things, so the third wife invited that Mrs. Shi into the house to give Ai Zhi to Lao’an. I heard that the effect is good, Lao’an has dinner. The time was much better, so the third wife left Mrs. Shi to stay at home for a few more days, and said that she would also give a few other Lao An people a massage, a moxa or something.”
Gu Xi pouted and sneered: “Small family, don’t know the rules. These three aunts and six grandmothers have brought in the door, and I can’t guarantee that they will become a scourge!” The
nurse said: “That’s her business too, we don’t care. ”
Gu Xi nodded.
She waited for another half an hour before Pei Tong returned to her room.
Gu Xi hurriedly
stepped forward to help him change his clothes: “Why did you come back so late? But what is the most important thing?”
He responded and said, “It’s getting late, let’s rest early! What’s the matter? I’ll talk about it tomorrow.”
Gu Xiba had to ask.
When she woke up the next morning, she had breakfast and was going to greet her mother-in-law first, and then go to Laoan Pei’s place. Who knew that she hadn’t had time to go to Mrs. Pei’s place. Mrs. Pei sent a message and said yes Mrs. Yang wants to rush back to the capital, and let them go quickly.
Gu Xi asked curiously, “Didn’t you say you left in two days?”
Pei Tong knew that it was because Mrs. Yang felt that there was no point in staying here, and wanted to go back to the Yang family earlier for the New Year, so she answered vaguely and talked to Gu. Xi went to Mrs. Yang’s place.
Mrs. Yang had packed up everything, and she went to Pei Lao An together after seeing them.
Pei Lao’an didn’t give Mrs. Yang any face at all, and directly said that it was too early to get up, so she would not send Mrs. Yang in person.
Mrs. Yang turned blue with anger.
When Pei Laoan knew about it, she grabbed Yu Tang – originally she was going to let Yu Tang see off guests on her behalf, but since Mrs. Yang felt wronged, she was afraid that Yu Tang would ask when she went to see Mrs. Yang. Listening to the gossip, she simply asked Aunt Chen to see off the guests.
Mrs. Yang walked away.
Mrs. Pei wanted to go back to her parents’ home.
She pulled her son to discuss with red eyes: “Don’t persuade those who have lost it, I don’t want to stay here for another day. If you don’t want to see your mother die, you can find a way for me to go to the capital, Go to your uncle to study. One day take me and your brother to the capital. We are in the capital, and we have our own house!”
Pei You bought it himself.
After Pei You’s death, the Pei family didn’t know whether they were acting deaf or not paying attention. The house was always in their hands.
Pei Tong thought of the warmth of the family when his father was alive, and his eyes were red, and he whispered to his mother: “Just bear with it, our family will definitely be reunited in the capital.”
Mrs. Pei felt a little better.
In the middle of the twelfth lunar month, the shop began to take stock and closed, and every household began to pickle fish and marinate meat, and fried twisted rice cakes to make rice cakes. The eldest master of the Li family’s ancestral house suddenly came to visit Pei Yan, and pulled Pei Yan to a secluded place with a pale face and said: “I’m afraid I’m going to trouble the third master again.”
Pei Yan was very impatient.
Yu Tang couldn’t go back because of the New Year, so he wanted to go home and have a look when he was young. He planned to send Yu Tang back to her parents’ house, and then had a casual meal at Yu’s house. In the afternoon, she went to the shop to have a look, and then picked up Yu Tang back. In the evening, I went to Pei Lao’an for dinner.
When the Sect Master of the Li family came like this, it was estimated that this matter was going to waste.
He frowned almost invisible, and said, “What happened?”
The eldest master of the Li family’s clan said with a wry smile, “Li Duan was stabbed to death!”
Hearing this news, even Pei Yan was frightened. After a big
jump, he said in a tight voice: “What’s the matter?”
The eldest master of the Li family’s ancestral house’s smile was even more bitter, and said: “Didn’t I say before that Li Yi took other people’s money and wasted lives? That bitter master is also a stubborn stubborn. Yes, I heard that Li Duan is a seed for reading, and the Li family will be able to make a comeback in the future relying on Li Duan, the bitter master is uneasy, and he has traveled all the way to find this place and kill Li Duan!”
This is really…
Pei Yan didn’t speak for a long time. .
The eldest master of the Li family’s ancestral house sighed: “Originally, when their family was rich and noble, they separated from us, but they couldn’t write two words “Li” in one stroke. Li Yi was exiled, and Li Jun followed to take care of his father. , suddenly encountered such a catastrophe, it is said that he is already lying on the bed sobbing and speechless, we can’t watch him destroy the corpse in the wilderness, right?”
According to Pei Yan’s thoughts, there is nothing wrong with the corpse in the wilderness.
It’s just in front of the people of the Li family’s ancestral house, he can’t say that.
He said: “Then what can I do?”
The eldest master of the Li family’s ancestral house glanced at Pei Yan and said, “The incident happened in Hangzhou, and it is considered a major case. It is said that Mr. Li will try it in person. The staff told me that Mr. Li was wicked and he felt that the bitter master was justifiable, so he probably would not sentence him to be executed. I just thought, Li Duan is from our Lin’an, could you please tell Mr. Li and hand over this case? Come to Lin’an for trial.” The
Li family was counted among the big squires in Lin’an, and Pei Yan came forward to help intercede, and the case was transferred to Lord Wu, and the bitter master would definitely be sentenced to death.
Pei Yan didn’t want to help with this.

He said: “Even if the case comes to Lin’an for trial, it will eventually be shown to Master Li. Besides, this matter is so serious, I don’t think it’s appropriate for me to come forward to plead with him.
” The eldest man was very surprised. He didn’t expect Pei Yan not to help the local people, so he quickly said: “I also think about the reputation of our Lin’an people…”
Pei Yan interrupted him mercilessly, saying: “If For the sake of the reputation of Lin’an people, we should not obstruct the judgment of Mr. Li. No one in the world makes mistakes. Knowing that mistakes can be corrected is a great thing. As I said, we Lin’an people should take this as a lesson, not only as officials outside the world To be clean, benevolent and kind-hearted, this is the real way to be an official.” The Li family’s
clan could not say Pei Yan, and he left in disappointment. After returning home, he thought about it for a long time, but he had to admit that Pei Yan said something. reason.
Later, he often used this matter to educate the children of the Li family, making Pei Yan even more famous, and even wrote it in the history books, which is another story.
In the city of Hangzhou, Li Guang, the newly appointed governor of Zhejiang Province, waited for a long time and did not wait for Pei Yan to intercede. He couldn’t help asking the staff around him: “What does he mean? Let me be sentenced like this? Li Duan is from Lin’an. And I heard that Mrs. Li has gone crazy, and he helped to send it to the nunnery.”
But he didn’t come out to say hello to Li Duan.
His staff told Li Guang what the eldest master of the Li family had said, and laughed: “Perhaps Pei Xiaguang thinks as you think, and thinks that the Li family should have what they should have. What’s wrong
!”
Li Guang pondered for a long time, nodded slightly, then had a very good impression of Pei Yan, and secretly felt that Pei Yan was his confidant.
