"No wonder you are tempted by Xie Yuxiu. You and Xie Yuxiu's marriage, I have a tacit understanding with Mrs. Jingping Hou, and I specially begged your grandfather for this. ”

Mrs. Pei gently patted her daughter's back, and the coldness in her eyes flashed.

She said coldly: "As a result, on the day you saw each other, Xie Shizi broke through with his own eyes that you had an affair with your aunt's cousin. For any man, this is a great disgrace. But in order to maintain your reputation, Xie Shizi not only concealed the matter, but also took the initiative to choose Zheng Yin in the second room in order not to embarrass you, preferring to have the reputation of 'unrighteousness and frivolity' on his back. Such a bright and transparent young man, my mother is now bound to win this son-in-law! ”

Mrs. Pei looked approving, and she was extremely satisfied with Xie Yuxiu in her heart.

Such a young man with unparalleled appearance, don't talk about his daughter, even if he misses this son-in-law, it will be a regret for his life!

Hearing this, Pei Jingshu's long eyelashes blinked, and she looked at her mother expectantly.

What her mother said was exactly what Pei Jingshu was thinking.

Her eyes were full of anticipation, and she said timidly: "But mother, now that the wood is complete, is it possible for me and him to do so?" ”

"Who told me just now that Xie Yuxiu didn't marry?" Mrs. Pei, who was looking at her daughter with tearful eyes, was soft-hearted, and in order to make her daughter feel relieved, she deliberately quipped.

Seeing her daughter's anxious white face, Mrs. Pei finally didn't let her daughter be anxious for too long, and she said very confidently: "Don't worry, Mrs. Jingping will never choose your cousin as her daughter-in-law." ”

Pei Zhengyin's girl is not qualified to enter Wang Qingyun's eyes.

……

The main hall of the Pei family put on a posture of three sessions.

Mrs. Pei squeezed the handkerchief in her hand hard, kept wiping her tears, and cried: "Mother, it is the daughter-in-law who does not know people clearly, so she will lead the wolf into the house." Although Cheng Pei is my nephew, if something like this happens, our Pei family must not keep him. ”

Old Madam Pei's fingers slowly flicked the jade bracelet on her wrist, and when she heard this, she lifted her eyelids, and glanced at the young man kneeling in the hall with cold and clear eyes.

"As the saying goes, Shengmien, Doumien, there are many people in this world who will take revenge. Eldest daughter-in-law, you don't have to blame yourself too much. ”

Old Madam Pei's merciless words made Cheng Pei, who was kneeling on the ground, tremble, and for a while, he was ashamed and remorseful.

Mrs. Pei now regards this nephew as a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh, so naturally she will not help him speak.

Mrs. Pei said with a sad face: "Mother, you have also seen the son of the Xie family, such a handsome young man, and his daughter-in-law has only seen her in her life. This was originally a great event, but now I don't know how it will end? ”

Although Mrs. Pei has investigated all the causes and consequences, in front of Mrs. Pei, she did not mention her grievances in every word.

Mrs. Pei's favorite eldest daughter-in-law is this.

Compared with the shrewd calculation of the second daughter-in-law, the left and right of the third daughter-in-law, the younger daughter-in-law's eyes are dust-free, and the eldest daughter-in-law is dignified and inward-looking, neither aggressive, low-key, forbearing, but also will never blindly swallow her anger.

Her fairness, generosity, tolerance, wisdom, and transparency are all traits that Mrs. Pei admires the most.

Over the years, the eldest son has been suppressing the second son in the court, and it was the eldest daughter-in-law who allocated a Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing from her dowry list to compensate the second room, so that the house could maintain a superficial harmony.

With a virtuous helper like the eldest daughter-in-law, the eldest son's future in the court is not bad.

Mrs. Pei can't let smart people be wronged, so it will only chill the eldest daughter-in-law's heart.

Mrs. Pei said slowly: "There are many girls in our Pei family. The eldest daughter-in-law, you brought the child of the Cheng family, worried about the melon field and plums, and never let the child enter the inner courtyard. As for how he got in yesterday......"

Old Madam Pei glanced at her most trusted mother Zou and ordered, "Go and call all the mothers-in-law who are guarding the corner door of the inner courtyard in." I'd like to see who is so bold as to play tricks right under my nose. ”

Old Madam Pei's tone was slow and methodical, and the terrifying light in her eyes made several daughters-in-law lower their heads together.

The girl in the room was even more trembling and didn't dare to speak,

Compared with the leniency and severity of Mrs. Pei's family, Mu is like a spring breeze, when this old lady is in power, she can't rub a little sand in her eyes, and she cleans up the iron bucket managed by the Pei family, inside and outside, and its rewards and punishments are even comparable to the barracks.

Mrs. Pei took action personally, but in just a few sticks of incense, the matter was investigated.

After listening to Zou's mother's confession, Mrs. Pei looked at Mrs. Pei with cold eyes, slapped the table, and shouted, "You did a good deed!" ”

Second Mrs. Pei was taken aback, her body trembled involuntarily, and she knelt down to plead guilty: "Mother, daughter-in-law is wronged." ”

"Do you think I'm old and confused?" Old Madam Pei's eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of her naturally upturned lips hooked a sneer: "Or do you want to beat a rake?" ”

Seeing this, Mrs. Pei San got up and poured a cup of warm tea, personally served it to Mrs. Pei, and persuaded softly: "Mother is angry, and the second sister-in-law is just confused for a while." Mother, forgive her for this. ”

Although Mrs. Pei San said words of pleading, it was clear that she had confirmed the charges of Mrs. Pei.

Which of the women who have been trained in the back house is stupid.

Mrs. Pei San also understood at this time.

The marriage of the second room was red-eyed, and colluded with the sister-in-law's nephew, and acted in such a scene when Xie Shizi arrived, in order to let Zheng Yin in the second room replace him.

Mrs. Pei San didn't know whether to say that her second sister-in-law was shrewd or stupid.

Mrs. Pei couldn't rub the sand in her eyes, and she was most tired of family infighting, how could she watch her brothers fight against the wall. The reputation of Pei Mansion is even more important than everything, but the second room has committed two taboos in a row.

Even if the second sister-in-law is the niece of her mother-in-law, she is afraid that she will have to shed her skin this time.

"The third daughter-in-law, you don't pretend to be a good person. I haven't done it or I haven't done it. "It's coming to an end, and Second Mrs. Pei is still hard-mouthed.

Old Madam Pei was indescribably disappointed, and she said coldly: "Go and bring Zheng Yin." I personally asked her that her cousin put her first in everything, and she was so young why she was so vicious that even her cousin had to be framed! ”

Second Mrs. Pei knows her daughter. Although his daughter Zheng Yin is smart and clever, she is bound to be exposed in the face of Mrs. Pei's torture.

When Second Mrs. Pei heard this, she suddenly felt like she had been pulled to the bone and collapsed on the ground.

Seeing this, Mrs. Pei paused while secretly wiping away her tears.

She exhaled slowly. Finally, my mother-in-law is not confused.

In just a moment, Pei Zhengyin was led to the hall by Zou's mother.

Pei Zhengyin, as the eldest daughter of the second room, has always been favored by her parents, she is Mrs. Pei, and she has always been kind to this granddaughter, where has Pei Zhengyin seen such a battle.

Zou's mother just intimidated a few words, but Pei Zhengyin couldn't hold it anymore, and she recruited everything in tears.

If it was usual, looking at her granddaughter's crying little face, Mrs. Pei would have hugged her arms in distress, and comforted her with "liver, meat".

But now, Pei Zhengyin's tears not only did not arouse the pity of Mrs. Pei, but made her frown in disgust, and shouted: "You still have the face to cry!" What does your big sister usually do to you, I don't need to say more about it as a grandmother! As a result, you have teamed up with outsiders to ruin your big sister's reputation! As sisters, you should be in the same breath, not in the same room, and be embarrassed! ”

When was Pei Zhengyin scolded by her grandmother so violently, she was ashamed and afraid, crying so much that she almost fainted.

Second Mrs. Pei was very distressed, she straightened up, and shouted unwillingly at her mother-in-law and aunt: "Mother, you don't have to point fingers at Sang and scold Huai. Speaking of roommates, who can compare to the eldest brother? When we do this, it's just an upward and downward effect! ”

This fire suddenly burned on her husband's head, how could Mrs. Pei sit idly by.

She said with tears in her eyes: "What is the second brother and sister talking about? In the public account of the house, the expenses of your second room have always accounted for the lion's share, and the excess money has always been taken from my private account. ”

"That's not because you have a weak heart." Second Mrs. Pei didn't appreciate it, a sneer overflowed from the corner of her lips, and when she opened her mouth, it was a sneer.

"The eldest brother of Beppu is Kong Rong Rang Pear, where is he like an uncle, he suppressed his own brother to death, not because he was afraid that the second master would share his benefits. You eat meat in your big house, and you have left a lot of bones and dregs that are not rare, so you pretend to give us generously. Father and mother are so eccentric, I don't know, I still think that the second master is a concubine......"

"Shut up!" Old Madam Pei couldn't bear it anymore, picked up the teacup on the table, and smashed it directly on Second Madam Pei.

Second Lady Pei suddenly screamed, and the splashed broken porcelain pieces jumped on the back of her hand, scraping a shallow blood mark.

Old Madam Pei lifted her lips and sneered: "If it weren't for Jingshu's matter, I wouldn't have known that you and the second child had so much resentment in their hearts." ”

Old Madam Pei's eyes were cold, and she looked at Second Madam Pei's gaze, as if she was looking at a dirty thing.

"If the second child is a concubine, with his competitive and unrestrained temperament, he will not even have a chance to grow up."

Old Madam Pei said with extreme contempt: "He and the eldest are only two years apart. The year of the boss and the weak crown has already been named on the gold list, and he has passed on in high school. But he relied on the shadow of his father and ancestors, and mixed a small position in the Criminal Department, and at the age of thirty, he was only in the second class. He wants to fight with the boss, what will he fight for! ”

Second Mrs. Pei moved her lips, looking unconvinced.

Mrs. Pei's heart became more and more disappointed, and she said coldly: "The second child is ambitious and talented, but his desire is difficult to fill, and he must be separated from the boss in everything. If I were the boss, I would have pressed him too. ”

Old Madam Pei glanced deeply at several daughters-in-law and said, "Everyone has selfish intentions. I have always turned a blind eye to your daily calculations, as long as you don't make too much trouble! I also know that your eyes are fixed on the little thing in your father's hand. ”

"But!" Old Madam Pei's voice changed, and she said sharply: "You all fight for it according to your ability, I don't object, as long as you are above board." The boss, although he is sharp, he has always been frank and open. But if anyone secretly uses some tricks, and I know about it, I will go back to my mother's house! ”

Mrs. Pei's words made several daughters-in-law unable to sit still.

Including Mrs. Pei, they all knelt down and pleaded guilty: "Mother is angry, and daughter-in-law obeys her mother's teachings." ”

Old Madam Pei didn't look at the other daughters-in-law, but said to Second Mrs. Pei: "I'll give you two ways, go to the family temple, or you still want a letter of resignation, you choose for yourself." ”

Hearing this, Second Lady Pei suddenly felt like five thunderbolts, she suddenly raised her head, and looked at her mother-in-law sitting above in disbelief, but she didn't see a trace of wavering and soft-heartedness on that beautiful face.

Second Mrs. Pei laughed miserably, and said slowly: "Auntie, I am your niece!" ”

Old Madam Pei snorted, her eyes bottomless.

She said in a light tone: "If you weren't my niece, do you think I would give you a chance to choose?" ”

Mrs. Pei didn't expect her mother-in-law to be so ruthless, she bowed respectfully to her mother-in-law, and her face with tears was as calm as water.

Mrs. Pei said quietly: "Mother, my daughter-in-law thanked my mother for making decisions for Jingshu. Just ......"

Mrs. Pei raised her head, her eyes were calm, she looked at Mrs. Pei and said, "Of course, the second brother and sister are at fault, and I, as the eldest sister-in-law, have not fulfilled my due responsibility to teach. knew that the second brother and sister were dissatisfied, but they only made up for her in terms of finances, but did not patiently enlighten her and resolve her knots. Mother, I would like to share the responsibility with my two siblings. ”

Second Mrs. Pei didn't expect that she had fallen to this point, and Mrs. Pei still had that hypocritical fake face and sold it well to her mother-in-law.

Second Mrs. Pei sneered lightly, but in the face of the angry Old Madam Pei, she didn't say anything more sarcastic.

Mrs. Pei took in the expressions of several daughters-in-law.

She smacked in the face.

Among these daughters-in-law, the eldest daughter-in-law is the best one, there is no doubt about it, but I didn't expect that the second daughter-in-law, who looks pretty good on weekdays, is the stupidest! Even the little daughter-in-law, the ruthless and desireless Bodhisattva is much stronger than the second daughter-in-law.

Mrs. Pei regretted for a while in her heart, she shouldn't have softened her heart back then, as the second child wanted. These two narrow-minded people got together, and both of them became more and more lonely, and they also raised good children.

Zheng Yin was only nine years old, and he learned to play tricks, framing his cousin and seducing his future cousin-in-law, which was not only shameless, but also vicious!

Old Madam Pei felt a little tricky. The second daughter-in-law must be sent to the family temple, and she blames herself for conniving too much over the years.

But what about Zheng Yin, who should be educated?!

Old Madam Pei held her forehead with a headache, and said coldly: "Eldest daughter-in-law, you don't have to intercede for this indisputable thing, I have made up my mind!" ”

Mrs. Pei's voice fell, Pei Zhengyin forgot to cry, knelt down and walked a few steps, hugged the corner of Mrs. Pei's skirt, and begged: "Grandmother, Zheng Yin doesn't dare anymore, please spare my mother......"

Second Mrs. Pei's body stiffened, and her head, which was overwhelmed by anger, was instantly extinguished under her daughter's tears and pleading, and there was not even a trace of spark left.

Second Lady Pei opened her mouth, however, with her arrogance, all her voices were choked in her throat, and she couldn't say a word of pleading.

Old Madam Pei sneered to herself: What a tenacious idiot, I can't distinguish the situation at all! It's all come to this point, in front of my mother-in-law, I still have to hold the second lady's shelf!

"Old lady, Mrs. Jingping Marquis came to the door with her eldest son, and the county lord of Yonghe also came." The big girl Huancui trotted all the way into the main hall.

The atmosphere in the hall was slightly stagnant.

Old Madam Pei's face was even more calm: "Let the housekeeper open the middle door, except for the second daughter-in-law, the rest of the people will follow me to greet the county lord." ”

When the future queen comes, even if Mrs. Pei is a first-class and highly respected person, she will not dare to slack off.

Xie Yanhe, together with his sister-in-law, was surrounded by the daughters of the Pei family headed by Mrs. Pei and welcomed them into the hall of the main courtyard.

Mrs. Pei invited Xie Yanhe to sit at the top, sat down at the head of the seat, and said respectfully and cordially: "The county lord and Mrs. Hou came to the door, and the Pei family was not welcomed, and the county lord and Mrs. Hou Haihan were invited." ”

"The old lady is gracious." Xie Yanhe took the fragrant tea offered by the maid, tasted it elegantly, and put the tea cup aside.

The attitude of the county lord of Yonghe revealed a faint sense of alienation.

Old Madam Pei's heartstrings trembled, and she said with a smile: "County Lord, Mrs. Hou, why don't you see the eldest lady of your mansion today?" ”

Wang Qingyun picked up the handkerchief and pressed the corner of her lips, and did not pick up Mrs. Pei's words, but scolded the eldest son standing beside her: "Son, don't kneel down for me!" ”

Xie Yu knelt on the ground silently, kowtowed in turn in the direction of Old Madam Pei and Mrs. Pei, and said: "The kid has no form, he has offended the ladies of your mansion, please forgive the old lady and the ladies." ”

Mrs. Jingpinghou's attitude is self-explanatory.

Mrs. Pei guessed instantly, but she was afraid that after Xie Shizi went back, she would tell her mother the truth.

The Marquis of Jingping Mansion seemed to be making amends, but in fact, it was asking the Pei family for an explanation.

Mrs. Pei took a deep breath, and in a hurry, she even forgot to wait for Mrs. Pei to speak, and personally went to help Xie Yu up: "Good boy, get up quickly." ”

"The Great Lady doesn't have to be like this. If he does something wrong, he must accept his mistakes. Wang Qingyun said calmly.

The boy looks immature, but his posture is like a pine, and he has a calmness that does not match his age. Mrs. Pei found that she couldn't pull people up at all, so she could only look at her mother-in-law helplessly.

The ugliness of the family should not be publicized, and Mrs. Pei originally thought of a bunch of reasons to ease the matter, but since the Marquis of Jingping Mansion came to the door, she couldn't allow them Pei Mansion to go perfunctory again.

Xie Yanhe sat on a high place and saw the eyebrows and eyes of the Pei family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law clearly.

Her sparkling peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly, and a thoughtful look flashed in her eyes.

It seems that this matter is not as simple as it is seen by his nephew.

If the nephew is involved because of the Pei family's infighting, the nephew will be beaten too unjustly!

Xie Yan and his heart were wronged for his nephew.

Her bright and moonlit face was dyed with a faint frost, and her sweet voice was as cold as snow.

"Yu Xiu is here to take the blame, the eldest lady will let him kneel, so that he can feel less guilty in his heart."

Xie Yanhe glanced around the room, and saw that the room was full of elderly female dependents, so he couldn't help but glance at the mandarin ducks.

The mandarin duck comprehended, curtsied, walked to Xie Yu's side, and untied his robe.

The young man's back was covered with clear whip marks, red and red, crisscrossing the snow-white skin, even through a layer of underwear, it was still clearly visible.

Mrs. Pei and the others suddenly gasped, they didn't expect Mrs. Jingping to be so ruthless to her son!

If they can give birth to an outstanding son like Xie Yuxiu, how can they be willing to beat him if they are not afraid of falling in their hands or holding it in their mouths for fear of melting.

Old Madam Pei's face was solemn.

Wang Jin's daughter is not simple. If Mrs. Jingping Hou was born as a man, I am afraid that Wang Jin's other sons combined will not be able to compare with her achievements.

The first time Mrs. Pei bent her arrogant back, it was in front of the juniors of the Xie family. She bowed down deeply towards Wang Qingyun, and said with a guilty face: "Mrs. Hou, it was the old body who had no way to teach that caused this ridiculous thing, and even the son of the world was punished, the old body really has no face to see you......"

"I can't do it, I can't help it, the old lady please get up quickly."

Wang Qingyun didn't get up and support her in surprise until Mrs. Pei bowed down.

can let Mrs. Pei personally make amends, Wang Qingyun is still not relieved.

Pei Jingshu obviously had an affair with her cousin, but the Pei family hid it from themselves and wanted to stuff such a watery girl into the Hou Mansion, but she was inadvertently broken by her own son, and let her son take the blame!

After Wang Qingyun learned the whole story, her heart and liver hurt!

On the one hand, she was proud of her son's uprightness, and on the other hand, she felt that her son was too gentlemanly, so she would fall for the calculations of these villains of the Pei family!

As a mother, how can Wang Qingyun be willing to forget it easily!

If it is to win over Pei Xiang, you have to endure this kind of shame and humiliation, let alone yourself, even the sister-in-law refuses to agree!

"Mrs. Hou, the old body really doesn't have the face to speak." Mrs. Pei said, crying.

Old Madam Pei has been strong all her life, and now in order to maintain the reputation of the Pei family, she can only choose to show weakness in front of the Xie family.

"Old lady, since your eldest lady has already had a tacit understanding with her cousin, then this marriage will be stopped, and my Xie family has never mentioned it. As for what Yu Xiu said...... If you ask to marry the second lady of your family, it is just that the child feels that he has lost face, and he is angry for a while. Please forgive the old lady. ”

Wang Qingyun's voice was like a spring breeze and rain, and he blamed all the mistakes on his son, without accusing the Pei family at all.

The more she was so kind, the more hot the Pei family's face became, as if she had been slapped in the face.

Mrs. Pei smiled bitterly: "Mrs. Hou, in front of you, I won't hide or hide it, there are some words, I don't want to fight this old face, so I just said ......"
