What happened a few years ago left the originally loving couple with a rift that can never be repaired.

Today's Pei Tingyan is a first-class Wuning Marquis and the left waiter of the household department, and he is an uncle who holds authority and style, but when he returns home, he can no longer find the feeling of heart-to-heart with his beloved wife.

Being invited to Xixia Courtyard by Gu Xi has become extinct in recent years.

He knew in his heart that if it weren't for the sake of leaving him some dignity in front of his three children, Gu Xi wouldn't even bother to do superficial work.

To be honest, he did feel a little guilty about what happened back then, but he didn't think it was serious, as Xin'er just said, the concubines are just some things, as long as they are not people whose heads were kicked by a donkey, who would have a share with their wives for a few things.

It's just that he and Gu Xi were very affectionate at the beginning, and they haven't had time to think about whether to take a concubine, as for whether they will really take a concubine in the future, who can speculate about what has not yet happened.

Who knew what he hadn't had time to think about, his good sister thought about it for him, and even took advantage of her young daughter.

It's impossible for anyone to feel comfortable in their hearts when they encounter such a thing, but they won't really tear their faces with their sister.

And it has already happened, and it is not the work of the husband to completely shift the responsibility to others.

What he didn't expect was that Gu Xi was so concerned about this matter.

Since he had another woman, Gu Xi had never made trouble, never shook his face, and never even tried to torture his concubines.

She is still the gentle and virtuous woman, the lady who keeps the house in order, the daughter-in-law who is filial to her in-laws, and the mother who loves her children.

But he just knew that Gu Xi had changed, and he could no longer change back into that little woman with beautiful eyes full of happiness.

The lukewarm towards oneself has lasted for a few years and has never changed.

The words he heard when he was standing at the door were the first time he had heard about those things from Gu Xi's mouth.

She said she didn't care about anything anymore.

This fact that he had already understood, and when he heard Gu Xi say it with his own ears today, his heart still hurt as if he had been cut by a knife. This is the woman I have liked for 30 years, and I plan to hold it in the palm of my hand and cherish my lover for the rest of my life.

But she no longer needs this love and affection.

Holding his daughter, who was almost as high as his chin in his arms, Pei Tingyan smiled helplessly: "Madame is in a lot of interest today, and she is willing to appreciate her face and invite her husband to have dinner together." ”

Gu Xi knew that Pei Tingyan's words had been heard, but he didn't feel that there was anything wrong, so he only smiled lightly: "Master Hou is free today, and neither Jincheng nor Jinhong have come back yet." ”

Pei Jinxin took his father's hand into the room and sat down, and said coquettishly: "Daddy, you see that my hands are injured, and my ten fingers are wrapped, and you only care about talking to your mother and don't care about others." ”

Pei Tingyan stretched out his hand and scratched his daughter's nose and said with a smile: "You treat your father as a fool, your mother used to do this when she was young, and your father also helped to make flower juice." As he spoke, he couldn't help but feel a little sour.

Gu Xi's heart also moved, but it was only a move.

She poured a cup of tea for Pei Tingyan's father and daughter, and then took a sip of the tea in front of her: "Master Hou, I invited you over today to discuss Jincheng's marriage." ”

Pei Tingyan didn't seem surprised, and said with a smile: "Jin Cheng is sixteen years old this year, it's time to consider marrying a daughter-in-law, Madame's vision has always been good, you are in charge." ”

Pei Jinxin also seemed to be interested, and hurriedly said: "The eldest brother is a well-known handsome young man in the capital, you can't just find a girl to be my sister-in-law, it must be pleasing to my eyes, otherwise ......"

Gu Xi naturally wouldn't let her daughter mess around with such a big matter, she glanced at Pei Jinxin and signaled her not to intervene.

On the other hand, he said to Pei Tingyan: "My sister's daughter Yuan Xiang will be fourteen years old soon, I think she and Jincheng are very suitable in all aspects, if Master Hou has no opinion, I will go to the door in a few days to ask my sister and brother-in-law what they mean." ”

Pei Tingyan raised his eyebrows: "Yuan Zongzhi's daughter? "I suddenly felt a little unhappy in my heart.

Back then, a group of aristocratic teenagers in their prime, including several princes, all used to study under the old family of Gu Ge, and they knew each other when they were children, such a pair of beautiful sisters, who would not be a little careful about them?

Gu Chao has the aura of His Royal Highness the Prince's fiancée, and his personality is arrogant, which makes people can only watch from afar. Gu Xi is smart and gentle, and there are more people he likes.

Yuan Zongzhi, who is very high in his bones, is also unavoidable, if it weren't for the fact that most of his energy was spent on studying the imperial examination at that time, and his own ancestors started quickly, Gu Xi might have been Mrs. Yuan a long time ago.

He has had no contact with the Yuan family for so many years, and he has almost forgotten about these things about the rotten grains.

Now that Gu Xi suddenly wants to be in-laws with Yuan Zongzhi, is there anything worse in the world?

He just wanted to express a small protest, but Pei Jinxin stopped doing it first.

She shouted directly: "I don't want that wild girl in Yuanxiang to be my sister-in-law, where is she worthy of being a big brother from head to toe." ”

Pei Tingyan never felt that her daughter and her heart wanted to pass like this, and stroked the top of her hair with a smile: "I don't think it's suitable either, my sister's temper is very big, presumably her daughter ......"

Gu Xi just informed them, put the teacup on the table and said, "It's just that I unilaterally have such a plan, whether it will be successful or not." I have seen Xiang'er several times, and most of her appearance and personality are with her brother-in-law, and she is not as arrogant as her sister, she will definitely be a good daughter-in-law. ”

When the matter came to this, Pei Tingyan dared to say anything, so he had to sneer and say: "In this case, everything is decided by Mrs. ”

Pei Jinxin also made a small calculation on the side.

Cousin Wan told her that Yuan Xiang wanted to marry Brother Heng as the princess, and she didn't seem to object to her aunt's intentions, and her uncle was immediately a heavenly official, so it would be very beneficial to really be Brother Heng's father-in-law.

At least it's much better than marrying Su Lin, even she knows that the Marquis of Zhongyong's Mansion has long been an empty shelf, so it's just a little better in reputation.

But she didn't want Yuan Xiang's wild girl to be Brother Heng's princess, so wouldn't she be the crown princess of Da Zhou in the future, or even the queen of the world, and she would have to kowtow when she saw her.

It's better to let her marry her eldest brother according to her mother's wishes, and when the time comes, it will be convenient for her to bully her when she marries into the Pei family.

It's just that in this way, you have to wronged the eldest brother.

Gu Xi smiled: "Then it's decided, in a few days, sister, after they settle down, I will send someone to the next post." Don't go out and talk nonsense until it's a foregone conclusion, even with those who are close to you. ”

This last sentence is obviously about Pei Jinxin, which means that she should not go to Queen Pei to talk nonsense.

Pei Jinxin pouted and snorted a little unwillingly. (To be continued.) )
