Chapter 100: A Happy New Year's Visit
Anti-theft, anti-theft, anti-theft
Shuyu tried to explain: "Eldest sister, I didn't..."
"You forgot how you begged me to propose! It's hard to marry back the pearl of other people's palms, and you just send your young master's temper like this! Where are you, when you are in Dingcui.."
Shu Yu was startled, Pei Man also immediately shut down, turned his head to hold Afu, ruffled her hair, and revealed her covered face: "Afu, don't be like this bastard, Sister will help you deal with him!" ”
It happened to be not far from Rongdong Courtyard, and the group entered Afu's house in three or two steps.
Pei Man pressed Afu into the chair on the right hand, sat on the left hand side, and Shu Yu sat down aggrieved.
Afu sat uneasy, and got up several times to let Shu Yu up, but was stopped by Pei Man.
"Let me ask you, just look at Wang Xi like this to your wife?" Pei Man stared at Shu Yu.
Shuyu lowered his head: "Sister-in-law said that it was the two of us, I.."
"What you two! Don't pretend to be confused for me, you say, the daughter who was born and raised in other people's families is now so flowery, married to you, a gentleman, you, you don't protect others, you let the concubine bully her like this? ”
Shu Yu didn't dare to say anything.
"Wang Xi and Huan Xian are both related to our family, as far as Afu is an outsider, she will rely on you, you are good, when you should come out, you are like a stuffy gourd, you know that you lose your temper with her, what's the use of asking you?"
Pei Man scolded heartily, every word was beautiful, and Afu said it sourly.
Yes, she's the only outsider. If it weren't for her mother-in-law's charity, how much grievance would she have suffered?
"Back then, you said you were going to marry her, I only thought you really liked other girls, and Sister Ah begged for you to get rid of her old face, and when you were our Pei family, people would like to send their daughter in to be angry with you? You see, you see! ”
Pei Man took Afu's hand and shook it in front of Shuyu's eyes: "Look at such a character and appearance, which family you marry into, people are not afraid of falling in their hands, but afraid of melting in their mouths!" ”
"It's good for you, there are still two rooms in this yard, and you are not idle outside, and you go home and bully others like this! Pei Shuyu, see for yourself if you are doing personnel? ”
Shuyu's face couldn't hold back, especially the eldest sister pointed out that he went to Dingcui Pavilion to find fun, he was only afraid that Afu would know, and he would be separated from him, so he begged honestly: "Big sister, I naturally love Afu, but it's not easy for my sister-in-law, I..."
Pei Man is nearly ten years older than their brothers, and she is the eldest sister-in-law like a mother on weekdays, so she will say angrily: "Your sister-in-law is not easy, what does it have to do with Afu?!" When your eldest brother was here, when did you let your sister-in-law suffer such a grievance? See for yourself, compared to your big brother, are you a human being? It's still all day, as if I can replace him.."
This is said seriously, and the man who was beaten by Shu Yutie turned red with his eyes, gritted his teeth stubbornly, and lowered his head.
Ah Fu was still a little relieved in her heart, but this time she actually cramped hard.
Before she could think about it, she knelt in front of Pei Man's knees: "Big sister, big sister, my husband treats me very well, Afu knows it in his heart, but he is a rough man, he is straightforward, and he says a few words about Afu, but Afu recognizes it." Husband and wife, who can respect each other every day? ”
She leaned forward again and mourned: "What's more, Afu is indeed out of character, and her sister-in-law teaches from time to time, and her husband is already very considerate." Although he is not allowed to witness the demeanor of the country's famous Confucian generals of the eldest brother, but thinking about it, from the empathetic aunt and eldest sister, as well as the younger brother who values love and righteousness like the husband, the demeanor of the eldest brother Pei can also be seen. ”
When Pei Man said this, Pei Man's eyes were red, and Shu Yu lowered his head and couldn't see his expression clearly.
Pei Man helped her up: "Good sister, sit down." ”
Helping Afu to the seat, Pei Man wiped away her tears: "Your husband is indeed kind. It's just this nerd.. I want you to be more tolerant. ”
Afu didn't dare to respond, only bowed her head silently.
Shu Yu stood up and said in a low voice: "Big sister, sit down for a while, Shu Yu will go to Zaifutang to read some official documents." ”
There are some official documents to read for the New Year, but Pei Man knew that his sentence just now "as if it could be for him" hurt the second brother's heart, so he was silent and let him go.
The two watched as he walked out with his hands behind his back, as if he had a thousand loads on his shoulders, and even though he tried to straighten his spine, there was still some reluctance to reveal it.
After a long time, Pei Man sighed: "Alas, it's all my fault for my temperament, I tried to be quick for a while, and I hurt Shuyu again." ”
Afu took her hand and said softly: "Sister Afu is for Afu's good, Afu knows." ”
Pei Man's heart warmed, he held her back, and said with emotion: "As soon as I saw you, I felt that you were a little similar to my Shuer, and I really couldn't see others bullying you." ”
Afu remembered that when she was serving tea on the second day of marriage, she also saw Pei Man's youngest daughter Shuer, who looked quite standard, but she was a little more bookish than her mother Pei Man, and she thought that she was with her father.
Afu said: "Shuer is a noble girl, so I naturally can't compare." Filial piety is also very good, and he was on the list at a young age! ”
Pei Man smiled heartily: "Alas, it's just the care of some in-laws." But your mother's second brother is called Xiang Mingyan, he is really talented! ”
She gave a thumbs up, making Afu giggle.
"I heard my husband say that in the past, Sister Ah often came back to see her father, why did I get married for almost half a year, but Sister Ah never came back?"
At the mention of this, Pei Man's face was a little gloomy.
She hesitated for a moment, looked at Afu's soft eyes, and finally decided to tell the truth: "When Sister Ah married Gu Yuansi, she relied on the help of her family. After talking about the family affairs, I learned that there was a pregnant wife in his family at that time, so I asked him to either divorce his wife or become a concubine, who expected that the Yang family had known Gu Yuanxi since childhood, and they were both dead scholars, and they jumped into the river after giving birth to their eldest son. ”
Afu was shocked, but she didn't dare to say anything, but her eyes widened inadvertently.
Pei Man expected her reaction and laughed miserably: "I am a little unhappy in my heart, I want to take care of the Yang family's son more, but for so many years, Gu Yuanxi has not allowed me to get close to Gu Yanxian at all." ”
Afu interjected: "Yan Xian.. Is it the son of the Yang family? ”
Pei Man nodded: "Yes." During the palace test this year, I thought to myself, anyway, I want to ask for a fame for filial piety, and I simply help Yan ask for one first, which can be regarded as selling his personal favor, but your brother-in-law will not allow me to live or die, and he will reprimand me, saying that if I rely on the power of Pei Fu again, he will reconcile with me..."
"Later, I still bought Xiao Ze a fame, and the price was that I would only have to come to Pei's Mansion twice a year in the future."
Afu was stunned.
She looked at Pei Man with a rebellious smile on the corner of her mouth in amazement, that smile was completely inconsistent with her slightly kind appearance, as if she was laughing at Gu Yuansi's scholarly temperament, so innocent and ridiculous.
Yes, where is the blood relationship cut off if you don't move around, as long as the Pei family doesn't fall for a day, Pei Man will never return to her parents' house, and when she goes out, everyone nods and bows The eldest girl of the Pei family, Gu Yuansigh, a writer who has to give in.
Afu was dumbfounded, and only after a while did she say with difficulty: "Sister Ah just doesn't come home, and she is also her husband's own sister and father's eldest daughter, which is all estranged." ”
Afu thought of the lively little girl with a little shyness: "Sister, speaking of filial piety, she is slightly older than me, although it is my aunt and nephew, it is really inconvenient for me to take him out, but Shuer can follow me from time to time, anyway, she is almost old enough to see her mother-in-law's family, and I will follow my aunt all day long." ”
Pei Man's eyes lit up, and he thought carefully: "You are really reasonable, I got married late, and I forgot that Shuer is actually twelve years old this year, so it is time to look at each other." You are the second lady of the Pei family, and it is easy to move around."
Pei Man clapped his hands: "Okay, I didn't bring her back today, thinking that I am not here, let the children cultivate some feelings with Gu Yuanxi." I'll send Shure over another day. Oh, I don't think I can come often, so I'll let someone send her over, and you'll be one more little girl, let her follow. ”
