Extras 19: A piece of hard work
The wedding date must come down, and the news that Pei Muqing is going to marry the daughter of the Du family has spread in Yunzhou City.
The sons and sons of these big families in Yunzhou City got together one by one to tell this joke.
"What kind of arrogant person did you say this Pei Muqing was at the beginning? It's really sad that now I'm reduced to marrying a concubine. A son surnamed Liu said.
As soon as these words came out, someone immediately chimed in: "Who said it wasn't? When he was in Pei's house, I don't know how many unmarried women in our Yunzhou have broken the threshold and want to marry him, but now let alone breaking the threshold, I estimate that he can't even marry a daughter-in-law, so he has to marry a concubine and go home. ”
How could these sons and brothers not know that their future life is as simple as marrying a concubine?
It's almost the same when a concubine marries a concubine, but it's far from being a main room? The concubine said that she was also a daughter if she heard it, but at best she was just a chess piece.
These people ridiculed Pei Muqing's life as miserable, but they didn't know that what Pei Muqing wanted was like this.
In the past, he also thought about marrying someone who was beneficial to him, but after giving up so many things, Pei Muqing saw through many things, and only then did he truly understand the beauty of life and enjoy everything he had not enjoyed before.
Now what he wants is a marriage without benefits, even if he doesn't love Dusoho, at least he has peace of mind and can do whatever he wants.
The gossip outside, Pei Huaiyuan, the head of the Pei family, is naturally clear, and for this reason, he specially looked for Pei Muqing once, of course, in what kind of high posture, commanding tone and Pei Muqing said.
Roughly speaking, if Pei Muqing is willing to admit that he said that he did something wrong before and is willing to reform himself, he is willing to hand over the business to Pei Muqing and let him become the enviable young master of the Pei family from the beginning.
Pei Muqing was a little funny, "Father, there is something I want to ask you?" ”
Pei Huaiyuan raised his eyes. "What's the matter, you just ask."
"I'm curious to know, what is your pursuit in this life?" Pei Muqing finally asked what he was thinking.
Pei Huaiyuan was immersed in his own thoughts, and said leisurely: "You said pursuit? My dad had it when he was younger, but unfortunately when I was away from these. I knew that I was very wrong, Mu Qing. Listen to Daddy, come back..."
Back then, he was the same as his son, in order to realize his pursuit, he did many crazy things, but later he recognized the facts.
After getting the answer, Pei Muqing didn't ask anything more.
Looking at the birds flying by outside the window, he sipped his tea and muttered, "Really? It's just a pity that I can only disappoint my father. ”
Pei Huaiyuan smashed the teacup angrily. Said angrily: "What's the matter with you? I've told you so clearly, do you want to be angry with me? Do you know how much I paid to get you back... Forget it, it's useless to talk to you too much, listen to Dad. As long as you are willing to come back, I will let you marry whoever you want. ”
There was already a deep prayer behind these words.
"Is Dad afraid that the power of the head of the Pei family will fall into the hands of the second uncle?" Pei Muqing was not moved by Pei Huaiyuan because he played the family card, but directly explained Pei Huaiyuan's purpose.
"Pei Muqing, what do you mean? Am I so unbearable in your eyes? Pei Huaiyuan asked.
Pei Muqing's reaction was very light, "Is it my father who knows best." I'll say it one last time, I won't go back to the Pei family, and I won't be the head of the Pei family.
The position of the head of the Pei family should fall into the hands of whoever it should be, he doesn't want to be a pawn anymore, and he won't be a pawn anymore, he is not interested in these things at all, and then mixes them up.
Pei Huaiyuan was so angry that he almost couldn't get up in one breath, "Rebel..."
After scolding, after breaking a teacup, he walked away violently.
Pei Muqing swept his eyes and broke the teacups all over the ground, sighed, didn't say anything, and was quietly stunned.
It wasn't until Pei Muqing's buttocks were a little numb that he stood up, and just as he was about to go out, he saw a wooden box under the stool Pei Huaiyuan was sitting on just now.
Pei Muqing secretly felt strange, this was rarely left by his father? Did you forget or what?
Driven by curiosity, Pei Muqing picked up a red wooden box, and after opening it, he found that the box contained a piece of warm jade that his mother had worn before her death, which was said to be the ancestral heirloom of the Pei family.
Don't...
Pei Muqing couldn't believe it, could it be that his father gave it to him? But isn't it all for the current stepmother?
Seeing that there was a letter inside, Pei Muqing immediately took it out, and after reading it, he finally understood that this was his father's hard work, but he didn't expect it.
Under the mezzanine of the wooden box, there are also 10,000 taels of silver tickets.
"Mu Qing, this is the only and last thing I can do for you as a father..."Pei Huaiyuan's tone was vicissitudes and loneliness.
Pei Muqing's eyes were a little moist, and he didn't expect his father to be... It's so hard-mouthed.
The day after Pei Huaiyuan looked for Pei Muqing, someone came to him again, this time it was none other than Pei Muqing's nominal mother, that is, his stepmother.
Unlike Pei Huaiyuan who persuaded him to go back, the Fang family, the mother of the Pei family, first tested Pei Muqing, and saw that he had no intention of going back, so she finally had a showdown with Pei Muqing.
"Mu Qing, if you don't go back, it's okay, the Pei family is in chaos now." After Fang finished speaking, he also carefully paid attention to Pei Muqing's expression.
"Really?" Pei Muqing's expression was very light, and he didn't want to know how the Pei family was doing now.
The Fang clan wanted to say a few more words, but Pei Muqing ordered him to send off the guests, as for Pei Huaiyuan's things to him, Pei Muqing did not mention it to the Fang clan.
After the head of the Pei family and the housewife looked for Pei Muqing one after another, they didn't look for him for the next month, which really made Pei Muqing stable for a while.
On the Du family's side, it was very unpeaceful, Du Ningning, who rarely went back to her parents' house, didn't say anything about coming back three times, and always went to Du Suho's yard.
This phenomenon is very weird, Mrs. Du asked her daughter not to go to Du Suho, but the breath in Du Ningning's heart has not disappeared, if she doesn't often stimulate Du Suho, she will feel even more uncomfortable.
Regarding Du Ningning's provocation, Du Suhe endured it and did not fight back, and several of their sisters had also suffered a lot of provocations before, as long as they ignored it.
What's more, she is about to get married, and it is not suitable for disputes with others, Du Ningning is even more arrogant, and she has all the temper of her eldest lady, and she has found Du Suhe a few times, Du Ningning also feels bored, and Du Suho's life has finally calmed down.
In the nearly two months that Du Suhe was to be married, Pei Muqing asked her a few times, of course, she didn't say a few words each time, but it didn't matter, but she received a lot of gifts.
December is finally coming slowly in everyone's expectations, seeing that the day of Pei Muqing's wedding is getting closer and closer, Qin Long and his wife and Steward Fang are very happy every day, and they can't wait for that day to come soon.
The two newly bought girls, after being trained by Steward Fang, are now very suitable for life in the Pei family.
As for the Du family, Mrs. Du, who was preparing a dowry for Du Suho, was very bad at choosing two dowry girls for Du and her.
With two henchmen looking at Du Suhe, she was a lot more relieved, it would be better if she could hold Pei Muqing, when the people sent it over, Du Suhe did not respond.
just made an excuse that Pei Muqing was from the countryside, and the two girls were afraid that they would not be able to do farm work, and they would disappoint Mrs. Du.
"Son-in-law Pei really said that?" Mrs. Du asked incredulously.
Du Suhe nodded, when Pei Muqing asked her before, she vaguely mentioned it, and she was smart and immediately thought of it, so she rejected Mrs. Du.
"This Pei son-in-law is too inconsiderate, right? You still want your dowry girl to go to the field? ”
"But Pei... Childe said that he had just bought a lot of land, and it was the time when there was a shortage of manpower, and when the time came, it was estimated that the whole family would have to go to the ground; The daughter was thinking that if these two flower-like sisters went, they wouldn't be able to stand the suffering... Therefore, it is enough for the daughter to just let the nurse be the dowry, after all, the nurse is also from the countryside and can do farm work. Du Soho buried his head low, a little shy, and a little afraid of making a fool of himself.
Mrs. Du was finally relieved to see Du Suhe like this, it seems that this Pei Muqing is not a good person, if this girl marries, she will definitely suffer a lot.
Then Mrs. Du went back with two girls who were like flowers and jade and had a body like fire.
Seeing that she gave up so easily, the housekeeper beside Mrs. Du said unwillingly: "Miss, do you really plan to let the fourth miss go like this?" ”
"Or else? Hmph, that little girl really thinks I'm so fooled? But the credibility of her words is very high, anyway... Forget it, let Emerald Green and Emerald Red go back. ”
The worse these concubines live in the future, the happier Mrs. Du will be, so is it really anything that matters? At this time, Mrs. Du didn't expect that she had tried her best to give Du Suho's dowry girl, and finally sent it to Du Ping's mouth.
Early in the morning of December 20th, Steward Fang asked the woman invited from the village to start busy, Fan Ming and his wife were also helping together, Pei Muqing was going to get married, this is in Nanye Village, this is a big deal?
I heard that the marriage is very luxurious, the pomp is also very large, and the most important thing is that everyone is most satisfied, that is, eating and drinking for nothing.
This is a long time ago released in the village, these people in the village have been looking forward to it for a long time, and now that they have finally waited, why don't they make people excited?
Because the bride's place is far away, Pei Muqing prepared the carriage, and after having breakfast and preparing everything, she went to welcome the bride happily accompanied by the matchmaker.
Hui Niang and his wife entertained guests at Pei Muqing's house, and it was also very lively for a while.
Those who came to say goodbye and came to visit, for a while, Hui Niang and his wife couldn't say hello.
The biggest headache for Hui Niang is that Jiang Yu's stinky boy, as soon as he saw her, he pestered her to see two little buns, who made Jiang Yu very curious about the twins?
And the arrival of the prefect of Yunzhou City caused a sensation in Nanye Village for a while~
ps:
It is estimated that there is still about one chapter to finish writing Pei Muqing.
