Does this count as stealing chickens and rice?
Pei Qiyou returned to the old house, Pei's mother was still sitting on the sofa, with a magazine on the tea table, as if she was waiting for him on purpose.
Seeing him carrying a trolley box into the house, Jiang Yingmei got up: "Have you had dinner?" β
Pei Qiyou nodded, didn't say much, changed his slippers, and was about to go upstairs, but Jiang Yingmei stopped him: "I also saw the magazine." β
"......" Pei Qiyou looked up at his mother.
"This time, it is clear that someone deliberately targeted her, our Pei family, but we were dragged into the water, just wait for the limelight to pass." Pei's mother carefully looked at the expression on her son's face, and her speech became serious: "Mom doesn't have too many requirements, she just hopes that you can start a family and live a good life in peace." β
Pei Qiyou understood what his mother meant, probably she guessed what he was thinking, he didn't start, and said, "I have my own measure." β
didn't get the answer she wanted, Pei Mu opened her mouth and wanted to say something more.
Pei Qiyou: "There's nothing else, I'll go back to the room first." I didn't give Pei Mu a chance to continue persuading, and went up the stairs directly with a trolley box.
Jiang Yingmei said behind him: "It's okay if Yiwei's child falls, when she goes abroad, you can go on a blind date for me." β
β¦β¦
Pei Qiyou returned to the room, just took off his coat, the mobile phone rang, it was the secretary's phone, he picked it up: "How is it?" β
The secretary reported a string of numbers, paused, and said, "Mr. Pei, I also heard that there are many people looking for President Yuansheng today. β
At the same time, there was movement on the fax machine in the study.
Pei Qiyou went to the study, and the materials were printed out, all of which he asked people to sort out, about the relevant information about 'Yizhou Weekly' and Yuan Sheng, hearing the secretary say this, Pei Qiyou flipped through a few pages: "How much impact does that report have caused Cheng DΓΉ now?" β
"It's not too strict, but it's not small," the secretary seemed to be hesitating whether to say it or not, and Pei Qiyou said directly: "Don't beat around the bush." β
"At least in Pei's family, everyone knows about it, and they may not have thought of it before, so - plus the content of the newspaper, every sentence is criticizing Miss Bai and even people related to her, even if it is not the truth, but everyone is the same, in the end, Bai Xiao may not be able to argue. And ......"
The secretary hesitated for a while before saying, "Also, the matter between Miss Bai and the three young people of the Yu family is not a secret in Fengcheng. β
Regardless of whether the content of the report is true or not, it has smeared the face of the Yu family, and Bai Xiao, as a daughter-in-law, should not have a good time.
The secretary added secretly in his heart.
"Let's do it first, I've worked hard for you tonight." Pei Qiyou hung up the phone and stood by the fax machine, and after a long time, he dialed Li Jing's number first.
Li Jing was woken up by the phone, and his voice was hoarse: "Brother Qi You, it's so late, is there something wrong?" β
"Your old man, are you quite familiar with the director of the Press and Publication Bureau in Fengcheng?"
ββ¦β¦ The relationship is good. β
Pei Qiyou walked to the window and looked at the night outside: "I have something I want to ask him to help, can you ask your old man to pull a line?" β
Li Jing was silent for a while and asked, "Is it Bai Xiao's matter?" β
Pei Qiyou didn't answer positively, but Li Jing felt that eight / nine was not far from ten, and said: "I have read both of these reports, whether it is the Yu family or the Xu family, they will intervene in this matter this time." As for the Pei family, although it was involved, it shouldn't have much to do with it. β
Li Jing means that he doesn't have to get involved, sometimes, silence is the best way, and after a while, he will naturally be forgotten.
But Pei Qiyou still didn't change his original intention, he said: "If you feel inconvenient, I can go to someone else." β
When it came to this, Li Jing didn't persuade him again, went to find his old man, took the number of the boss of Yuansheng from Pei Qiyou, and at night, he relied on layers of relationships, and found a person who could speak from the General Administration of Press and Publication to call the boss of Yuansheng, and there was a response soon.
"Mr. Yuansheng is also anxious at this time, it is said that many of their company's magazines will face a thorough investigation, and I don't know who reported it, saying that their magazines are pornographic, and they can be done with a little money, but this time they don't eat this set." Li Jing talked about this and said with relish: "By the way, there are still people who buy Yuansheng's loose shares in the market, and when they wait until tomorrow, Yuansheng's stock price will fall sharply, and they will buy a large amount at this time, making it clear that they want to meddle in Yuansheng's housework while the fire is robbed." β
"Do you know who bought it?" Pei Qiyou asked.
"The stock economy said that it was inconvenient to disclose, but it hinted that there is more than one account, and all of them are unfamiliar accounts, and some are still abroad."
Pei Qiyou hung up the phone and stared out the window in a certain direction, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a long time, he called his personal financial planner and asked him to take out 40% of his family's funds to buy Yuansheng's stocks, and the financial planner felt that this was not a wise move: "Mr. Pei, according to internal information, something happened to Yuansheng, I'm afraid to buy it now - you can think about it again." β
"No, I know what I'm doing, you just do it."
Pressing the hang up button, Pei Qiyou turned around and saw Jiang Yingmei standing at the door of the study at some point.
Jiang Yingmei's face was very bad, and when Pei Qiyou passed by her with her mobile phone, she turned sideways and said a little harshly: "You really know what you're doing?" β
Pei Qiyou was silent, his fingers clenching his phone.
"What you used to do, I, as a mother, never interfered with you, but now, you are becoming more and more disagreeable."
Jiang Yingmei looked at her son's gaze with disappointment: "If you continue to be in love like this, what will a huge company be tossed into by you?" β
Pei Qiyou looked back at her: "The worst thing is to go back to a few years ago, and we haven't lived that kind of life." β
"Smack!" A slap fell on his face.
Pei Qiyou didn't refute again, he went out of the study directly and went downstairs. Jiang Yingmei hurriedly chased a few steps: "It's so late, where are you going?" β
ββββββββββ
In the evening, when Yu Shaoting returned home, it was pouring rain outside, and the eaves were ticking with the sound of water.
Maybe it was Yu Jingxi who was accompanied at home, Bai Xiao was in a good mood in the afternoon, and when he was about to have dinner, Mrs. Yu's phone came.
"It's the old lady's call." Aunt Li covered the landline microphone and turned her head to the restaurant.
Bai Xiao looked at Yu Shaoting, who was sitting opposite, he didn't mean to get up to pick it up, but looked up at her, as if to say, "Don't pick it up yet?" β
As if he was being driven to the shelves, Bai Xiao went to answer the phone, took the phone, and called the old lady "Mom".
Bai Xiao thought that Mrs. Yu would definitely come to inquire about the reported matter, and at this point in time, it was much later than she expected.
But the first sentence of Mrs. Yu's mouth was-"Xiaoxiao, how is your body?" β
......Bai Xiao was stunned for a moment, and then immediately said, "Well, it's good, Mom, what about you?" Today, Aunt Zhang said that you went out for beauty. β
Mrs. Yu's mood sounded good, and she talked to Bai Xiao for a few words, saying that Mrs. Wang was too fat, and the collapse of the beauty center couldn't put her down, and then the old lady said inadvertently: "I saw the matter of today's magazine, and I blame the third child for not protecting the three of you." β
"But don't worry, this rumor-mongering magazine, I have already reported it just now."
"Mom, in fact, what the report says-" Bai Xiaogang wanted to explain to the old lady that she was the adopted daughter-in-law of the Pei family.
As a result, the old lady intercepted her words and said, "Mom is not an old fool who is like a crowd, and Mom won't believe anything out of nothing, you can rest assured." β
"No......" The phone in Bai Xiao's hand was taken away.
Yu Shaoting was already standing beside her, holding her shoulder with the other hand, rubbing gently, he said a few words to Mrs. Yu and hung up the phone.
Bai Xiao had doubts in his heart and wanted to ask him, but Yu Shaoting put down the landline and put his arm around her shoulder: "It's been so long to answer the phone, go over for dinner." β
β¦β¦
Compound, Yu family's side.
Mrs. Yu put down the landline phone and sighed, Aunt Zhang set up the dishes and chopsticks in the restaurant: "Madam, you can eat." β
Sitting down at the dining table, Mrs. Yu looked to the second floor: "What about the old two?" β
"The chief hasn't come back yet." Aunt Zhang said: "It may be that the army has something to do temporarily, and I left in a hurry just now." β
Old Mrs. Yu nodded, just picked up the bowl, her heart was still not happy, she looked up at Aunt Zhang and said, "Ajuan, you say, am I easy?" β
"You've broken your heart for the chief and the three young men all these years."
"What can be done, it's not easy for the junior to ask for a daughter-in-law, it's still a second marriage, the second marriage is over, now it's said that it's the cousin of the ex-wife, it's also forgotten, and now I know that it turned out to be the Pei family's child-" The old lady was halfway through speaking, and suddenly realized that she had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly covered her mouth.
"Madame-" Aunt Zhang thought something was wrong with the old lady.
"It's okay, it's okay." Mrs. Yu said, and couldn't help but sigh a long time: "The old man thinks I'm stupid, in fact, I'm much more witty than him, some things, what do you want to do so much, the raw rice has been cooked, this day, I still have to live, besides, the daughter-in-law Xiaosan is a baby." β
Aunt Zhang smiled and filled the old lady with a bowl of soup: "You, this is wise and foolish." β
ββββββββββ
After dinner, Bai Xiao still asked Yu Shaoting: "Mom, is it, I still don't know what happened to me in Pei's house?" β
Yu Shaoting took her hand, held it, put it on his leg and gently rubbed it back and forth, with some ambiguous/ambiguous movements, and said: "Old lady, I have never believed in the news in gossip magazines, and I was still on the phone just now, let me tell you, don't take it too seriously." β
"Really?" Bai Xiao didn't believe it, "Then why didn't she tell me herself?" β
"Let me tell you, tell yourself, don't you mean the same thing?" In the last half of the sentence, he said it a little frivolously.
Bai Xiao's attention was successfully diverted, and the two sat next to each other on the sofa, her cheeks were slightly hot, and she let go of his hand and got up: "I'll practice yoga for a while." β
"You're still going to practice this?" He leaned back on the couch and looked at her waist with interest.
ββ¦β¦ I just learned it recently. Bai Xiao was uncomfortable with him, so she went to get a special blanket for practicing yoga and spread it on the ground, in fact, she wanted to learn yoga for pregnant women, and she specially bought a disc on the Internet, but she was afraid of hurting the baby in her belly.
Yu Jingxi, however, has a strong interest in yoga, and every time Bai Xiao puts on music, he practices together, holding his little belly in style.
Yu Shaoting poured a glass of water and came out of the kitchen, did not rush over, but leaned on the pillar next to him, drinking water slowly, while looking at the mother and son in the living room like watching a circus, in the yoga instructor's commentary, Bai Xiao's mobile phone on the dining table rang.
Yu Shaoting glanced at the caller ID, didn't call Bai Xiao, but took the mobile phone and went to the corner to pick it up: "Hey? β
β¦β¦
Pei Qiyou didn't know why he drove here and why he called her, and he didn't even hang up immediately after Yu Shaoting picked it up.
He sat in the car, and the windshield wipers swept the water column off the windshield left and right.
Yu Shaoting came out of the villa, he was holding a dark umbrella, shirt and trousers, the heavy rain wet his trouser legs, and also wet the left half of his shoulder, but he still walked over in the two shining lights, and then put away the umbrella, opened the passenger door and got into the car.
"Come here at night, what's the matter?" Yu Shaoting's eyes glanced at him, as if he really didn't know the purpose of his coming here.
Pei Qiyou got straight to the point: "You bought Yuansheng's loose shares on the market, right?" There is also a thorough investigation of Yuansheng's magazine, which is also related to you. β
Yu Shaoting smiled quietly: "When did Yuan Sheng get in touch with you?" β
"......" Pei Qiyou didn't speak, but his hand was tightly gripping the steering wheel.
For Yu Shaoting, in Bai Xiao's matter, Pei Qiyou has already learned his methods, even if he doesn't admit it, Pei Qiyou feels that those things are inseparable from him, just like now, every time he calls Bai Xiao, what he hears is Yu Shaoting's annoying voice.
"It's raining a lot outside, go back early, and don't let the family worry."
Pei Qiyou heard Yu Shaoting's fake preaching, his face turned even darker, but Yu Shaoting didn't mind, and directly opened the door and got out of the car.
Before closing the car door, Pei Qiyou finally couldn't bear it anymore, turned around and said to the man standing outside the car: "I have something to tell her, you let her out." β
"Say whatever you want, sue me, and I'll help you convey it."
Compared with Yu Shaoting's light clouds, Pei Qiyou was obviously a little breathless, and he opened the car door directly, regardless of the heavy rain, rushed to Yu Shaoting, the two were about the same height, and he picked up Yu Shaoting's collar: "You despicable villain, is it interesting to dominate her like this?" β
Yu Shaoting raised his eyebrows slightly: "Why is it boring?" She is practicing yoga at home at this time, with her son, if you don't mind, you can go in and sit. β
Pei Qiyou's hand holding the collar of his shirt was slightly stiff, and his eyes, which were flushed red by the rain, stared at him deadly.
Yu Shaoting's mobile phone vibrated in his trouser pocket.
He looked back at Pei Qiyou, and answered directly in front of him: "Well, Jin Sheng has something to do, he is gone, and he will go back immediately." β
Pei Qiyou was furious when he heard him talking nonsense with his eyes open.
Putting away the mobile phone, Yu Shaoting raised his hand and pulled away Pei Qiyou's hand, looked at his angry eyes, and said lightly: "For other people's wives, don't make up your mind, bear with you once or twice, don't take it as connivance, you should have heard Yi Wei say that I'm not a good person." β
β¦β¦
Bai Xiao heard the sound of the door opening, turned her head to look over, Yu Shaoting was changing her shoes at the entrance, she got up from the blanket, went to the bathroom and got him a towel.
"Is it raining so hard outside?" She noticed that his entire back was almost wet.
When Yu Shaoting took the towel, he took her hand and looked at her directly: "Just go upstairs and take a shower." β
Bai Xiao understood what he meant, was a little embarrassed, glanced at the children who were still practicing yoga in the living room, and saw that Aunt Li was still there, so he hesitated and followed him upstairs.
As soon as she entered the master bedroom, Yu Shaoting hugged her from behind, and while undressing her, she lowered her head and kissed her neck: "It's so fragrant." β
Bai Xiao was amused by him, when the two met frankly, he coaxed her in her ear and asked her to turn her back, the two tacitly knew about it, she lay there obediently, and the hot and wet kiss went down from her shoulder...... [imagine the part below the neck]

Different from the affection in this place, the Xia family in the capital is already in chaos.
Late that night, a certain descendant of the Xia family was arrested by the police for drug abuse in a private house in the capital.
When the Xia family was in a hurry to bail people out, the next day's Internet exposed that Xia Jianyao was breading a second/milk outside, only twenty years old, and even posted a bed photo of Xia Jianyao and the second/milk. The sister-in-law of the Xia family saw the second/grandmother who made a victory gesture in the photo, and she didn't mention it in one breath, and fainted directly
