Chapter 217: Resolved

After listening to the cause and effect of the whole thing, Xie Yanhe glanced at his sister-in-law, neither of them thought that there was such an inside story before they came.

From this point of view, the Pei family did not deliberately humiliate their Jingping Marquis Mansion.

It's just that I didn't expect that the Pei family's well-known family reputation is upright and their children are promising, but there are so many dirty things hidden inside, and they have made trouble in front of outsiders, which is really "a scripture that is difficult to read in every family".

But if you want to Xie Yan and sympathize with Mrs. Pei, it is impossible.

Xie Yanhe did not forget the grievances suffered by his nephew, when his sister-in-law scolded Yu Xiu, the child was silent, Xie Yanhe pleaded with him to no avail, he could only watch, and his heart was about to break.

"Madame, I haven't seen the girl under your knees. It's called Jingshu, right? ”

Xie Yanhe saw that his sister-in-law was silent, and took the initiative to take over the conversation.

Mrs. Pei was stunned. She also thought that with the temper of Mrs. Jingping Hou and the county lord of Yonghe, most of this marriage would be a failure.

At this moment, the words of the county lord of Yonghe suddenly made Mrs. Pei like Feng Lunyin, and she said excitedly: "Ruyi, go and ask the young lady to come over." ”

Xie Yanhe picked up the teacup and hid a sneer from the corner of his lips by covering it with his sleeve.

The Pei family thought that they would just forget it, it would be naΓ―ve.

If Pei Jingshu is good enough, there is still room for relaxation in this matter. But if it doesn't live up to its name......

Xie Yan and his long eyelashes narrowed slightly, and secretly exchanged glances with his sister-in-law.

"Mrs. Hou, since the misunderstanding has been explained, let's let Xiao Shizi get up quickly." Mrs. Pei San showed a distressed look and persuaded softly.

The atmosphere in the hall was quiet, and the ladies of the Pei family were waiting for Wang Qingyun's reaction.

Wang Qingyun said with a smile: "Thank you Mrs. Pei San for your kindness." But he acted carelessly, and deserved to be punished. ”

After Wang Qingyun finished speaking, she looked at her son and asked, "Mother punished you, are you convinced?" ”

Xie Yu hugged his fist towards Mrs. Pei and said, "Thank you Third Lady for helping me intercede." ”

His voice changed, and he continued: "But the affairs of your mansion are all caused by me, and Yu Xiu is hard to blame. The old lady is magnanimous, but Yu Xiu can't get an inch. ”

The young man's voice was clear and firm, even in full view of everyone, with whip marks on his body, he was still neither humble nor arrogant, without the slightest sense of twisting. Even though he knew that he had suffered an unjustified disaster, he still did not anger Pei Fu, and he only mentioned his own mistakes in his words.

Not to mention the ladies of the Pei family, it is the old lady Pei who has read countless people, and her eyes also show a look of appreciation.

No wonder the eldest daughter-in-law and eldest granddaughter, who have never fought or grabbed, will not give an inch to this marriage.

Such a gold-like and glamorous young man, if he had a daughter, he would also snatch it to be his son-in-law.

Old Madam Pei sighed silently.

"Old lady, the eldest lady has arrived, and she is outside." Ruyi, who had just gone to invite Pei Jingshu over, looked at the young man in the flower hall with a look of embarrassment.

Seeing this, Wang Qingyun took the initiative to say to his son: "Yu Xiu, you go to the outside of the hall and kneel." ”

Hearing this, Xie Yanhe's eyes moved lightly, his eyes glanced at the bright sun outside, his eyebrows were furrowed, and he obviously did not agree with his sister-in-law's decision.

"Yes, Mother." After Xie Yu finished speaking, he stood up silently and saluted to the female dependents of the Pei family: "Old lady, ladies, juniors retire." ”

"Wait a minute." Mrs. Pei has already identified Xie Yu as a wishful son-in-law. At this moment, he couldn't even take care of the men's and women's defense, and hurriedly spoke out to stop it.

"Our Pei family is not a family that eats ancient times. The elders are all in the house, so why should you avoid it. ”

Xie Yanhe's frowning eyebrows stretched out, and she beckoned to her nephew: "Yu Xiu, come to my aunt." After a while, Miss Pei entered the house, and you were still kneeling, there were always many inconveniences. ”

Xie Yanhe spoke softly, and his peach blossom eyes were full of pampering, which made people know at a glance that he loved this nephew to the bones.

With a high-ranking father like Xie Han, an aunt like the county lord of Yonghe who is favored by the emperor, and she is a peerless Shaoxiu, everyone can see that Xie Shizi's future in the future will not be bad.

Even Mrs. Pei San also sighed in her heart, but it is a pity that she does not have a daughter of the right age, otherwise, she would have to follow the example of her second sister-in-law and fight by any means.

Xie Yu obediently stood behind his aunt, and lowered his eyes very politely, even if Pei Jingshu walked into the hall, he still politely did not take a second look.

"Jingshu see the county lord of Yonghe, see Mrs. Hou."

The eleven-year-old girl wore a goose-yellow blouse, a green flower-sprinkled pleated skirt, and her thick hair was combed into a double mustache, and only two strings of lotus seeds and rice-sized beads were wrapped around her hair.

A face with baby fat can vaguely see the outline of a goose egg face. The snow-white skin is like a fine mutton fat jade, the complexion is ruddy, and the lips are red.

The two eyebrows that flew obliquely into the sideburns revealed a little heroic, and under the thick eyelashes, the dust-free apricot eyes of the autumn water were crystal clear and bright, and the eyes were clear, without losing the agility and gentleness of a girl.

What's even more rare is that the girl's body has a dignified and calm that does not match her age.

Her quiet and restrained temperament makes her like a pearl of brilliance, warm but without losing her aura; noble but not sharp; In the purity, there is a rich, hazy beauty. Even in the darkness where you can't see your fingers, it is still elegant, magnificent, and radiant.

Xie Yanhe secretly cheered in his heart!

It is worthy of being the premier lady in the capital!

She praised: "Old lady, I know today, what is meant by 'light light stream, cover up the Yaotai', your lady's character is exquisite, it is really unforgettable!" ”

The eldest granddaughter, Jingshu, has always made Mrs. Pei proud.

Hearing the sincere praise of the county lord of Yonghe, Mrs. Pei, who was originally preoccupied, couldn't help but stretch her brows, and said with a smile: "The county lord is polite, she is a villain, and she can't stand your love like this." ”

Xie Yanhe changed his alienation and arrogance, his moist red lips turned up, and he smiled deeply: "The old lady is too modest." In the entire capital, I'm afraid I can't find a more outstanding lady than Miss Pei. ”

"Your name is Jingshu?" After Xie Yanhe finished speaking, his voice changed and he asked the girl.

Hearing this, Pei Jingshu once again bowed: "The county lord is blessed with Jin'an." ”

Xie Yanhe beckoned and said gently, "Come to me." ”

Pei Jingshu's eyes drooped slightly, and she secretly glanced at her mother. After seeing her mother bowing slightly, she walked up to Xie Yanhe generously, not far away.

Xie Yanhe liked this girl's sense of proportion very much, and was secretly satisfied in his heart.

After Pei Jingshu approached, Xie Yanhe found that the girl's eyes had obviously cried, but they were covered with fat powder, and she couldn't see anything when she stood far away.

Xie Yan and a pair of peach blossom eyes flashed.

Is this girl so wronged because she was framed by her cousin, or is she really affectionate to her cousin?

In Xie Yanhe's heart, although she saw that her nephew was very good, she definitely couldn't guess that Miss Pei Jia only saw her nephew once, and she secretly paid her heart.

The light in Xie Yanhe's eyes gradually became cold, her red lips opened slightly, and she was just about to say some polite words, but in the corner of her eyes, she saw that this dignified and cautious Miss Pei quickly glanced at her nephew, and her moist apricot eyes seemed to float with a shallow water, and she endured it again.

Xie Yanhe's heart moved slightly, and the corners of his lips subconsciously curved.

She suddenly softened her gaze, looked at her sister-in-law and said, "Sister-in-law, as soon as I saw this girl's character, I felt a little familiar, but I couldn't remember who she looked like for a while?" ”

The sister-in-law's words are intended to test her attitude, if she still wants to continue the marriage contract with the Pei family, she will naturally follow this word, otherwise, she will avoid the conversation.

Wang Qingyun sighed in her heart, it is really good to be in the capital. In the past in the northwest, where did she go to find such a confidant who had the same heart as her.

"Can't you see who she looks like?" Wang Qingyun smiled lightly. Since she stepped into Pei's mansion, she has been holding a tall posture, and at this moment, her cold and hard attitude has softened a little.

"I think this girl looks a little like you."

Wang Qingyun said, smiled apologetically, and said to Mrs. Pei: "My words are really a bit rude, don't blame Mrs. Pei." ”

Saying that his daughter is like the queen of the middle palace is by no means rude, but a rare compliment. Mrs. Pei was obedient and listened, and immediately understood what the Xie family's sister-in-law meant, and was immediately surprised and delighted.

Rao is her qi cultivation skills are excellent, and the smile between her eyebrows and eyes can't be hidden at this time.

"Look at what you said, Mrs. Hou, if my daughter can have the character of the county lord or two, I, as a mother, will have nothing to teach."

Seeing that her sister-in-law and Mrs. Pei were talking lively, Xie Yanhe pursed her lips and smiled, her peach blossom eyes were slightly curved, and she said softly: "So, Miss Pei and I have a good fate." ”

Mrs. Pei said busily: "If the county lord likes her, you might as well take her to her side to teach for a few days, and let her touch your blessings." ”

Mrs. Pei's words are too straightforward, which is completely different from her usual reserve. It can be seen how satisfied she is with her nephew, this is for fear of missing her son-in-law.

Xie Yanhe knew it in his heart, the smile on the corner of his lips became deeper and deeper, and on a beautiful face, the magnificence of the complexion was so beautiful that people were reluctant to take their eyes off.

She said with a narrow tone: "I'm afraid that after I bring people back, I won't be willing to send them back." ”

Xie Yanhe has a very good relationship with his sister-in-law, and he doesn't need to communicate in private, he already understands what Wang Qingyun means.

If Mrs. Pei was still a little apprehensive just now, she is now completely relieved.

It was Pei Jingshu, who was as elegant and quiet as a delicate flower shining on the water since she appeared, and her thick eyelashes couldn't help but tremble.

Seeing this, Xie Yanhe felt a little pity for this little girl, and was even more disgusted with what the Pei family's second room had done.

Xie Yanhe originally came to Peifu Xingshi with his sister-in-law to ask for guilt, but as a result, even the tokens were exchanged for a lunch.

The Pei family is at fault first, even if they are women, they have no shame to take a posture in front of Mrs. Jingping, not to mention, who dares not to give the face of the future queen.

The three ladies of the Pei family carefully flattered the county lord of Yonghe and Mrs. Hou and moved to the water pavilion to listen to the play.

After everyone sat down, Xie Yanhe casually mentioned: "Yesterday's little girl is called Zheng Yin, right?" Why didn't you see her today? ”

Old Madam Pei's heartstrings trembled, and she couldn't help but stop her hand to follow the beat, a pair of half-squinted beautiful eyes suddenly opened, and she smiled reluctantly: "The child is not sensible, and the old man punished her to kneel in the ancestral hall." ”

"The old lady is too harsh." Xie Yan and Dai raised their eyebrows slightly, with a smile on their faces.

"My niece Tao Tao is as old as the old lady and your granddaughter Zheng Yin, and she is also very naughty. Children, you still have to teach slowly. ”

The county lord of Yonghe said it to this point, and Mrs. Pei couldn't avoid it anymore, so she could only say to Mother Zou behind her: "Go and ask the second lady to come over." ”

Xie Yanhe's eyes were fixed on the stage, as if he had just mentioned it casually.

Old Madam Pei's heart was beating hard. This county lord of Yonghe is not a good-tempered person. She is a powerful person who is obviously at odds with the East Palace, and dares to go to the East Palace to stuff a side concubine. Such a person, even if he said it casually, Mrs. Pei didn't dare to ignore it.

The ladies of the Pei family were very calm.

After Mrs. Pei exchanged tokens with Mrs. Jingpinghou, her heart was empty, her eyebrows and eyes were stretched, and her eyes were focused on the stage, completely with an attitude of staying out of the matter.

The second room died by himself, since the county lord of Yonghe had the heart to settle accounts, Mrs. Pei was not a saint, and she wanted to offend her in-laws for the second room.

After a while, a girl with pink makeup followed behind Zou's mother.

After seeing Mrs. Marquis of Jingping and a beauty like a fairy concubine, Pei Zhengyin instantly guessed the identity of this beauty, and saluted: "Zheng Yin greets the county lord of Yonghe, and Mrs. Hou." ”

Xie Yanhe slowly shook a jade bone fan with an ivory handle in his hand. Seeing this, he didn't scream, but glanced at Pei Zhengyin carelessly, that glance was extremely cold and sharp, like ice that does not melt all year round, and like a famous sword with cold light.

Pei Zhengyin's body trembled involuntarily, and a look of fear appeared on his face.

Xie Yanhe said slowly: "Get up." ”

Pei Zhengyin squatted for a long time, and his knees were very sore, but he forcibly held back.

Although she is not very old, her scheming is not shallow, otherwise she would not be able to calculate her cousin's things. 's mother has been sent to the family temple, and Pei Zhengyin knows that she has no one to support her, so she can only silently endure the grievances in her heart. It's just that the eyes are quietly wet.

Xie Yanhe did not soften his heart at all because of Pei Zhengyin's tears. Sitting next to her was Pei Jingshu. One was taken by her side, whispering, while the other stood tremblingly at the foot of the steps, indifferent and ignored.

The cousins who used to have the same status, because of the favor of the nobles, immediately had a distinction between superior and inferior.

If it was in the past, Pei Zhengyin's eyes would definitely be red with jealousy, but she stayed in the ancestral hall all night, and now she has no thoughts, only a strong fear in her heart.

"Old lady, I don't know when the second lady in your house was born?"

As soon as Xie Yanhe's words fell, all the ladies in the water pavilion were stunned, obviously confused by her genius question.

Pei Zhengyin had a glimmer of hope in his heart. The county lord of Yonghe asked about his eight characters, could it be......

Pei Zhengyin secretly glanced at his cousin, and a worried heart suddenly gave birth to a little expectation

Old Madam Pei is not as optimistic as Pei Zhengyin. The Jingping Marquis Mansion and the Changfang have even changed their tokens, how can they give up the pearl and go to the fish.

She quickly bit the tip of her tongue, and the sharp pain calmed down Old Madam Pei a little, but she didn't dare not answer.

Mrs. Pei reported the birth date of her granddaughter Zheng Yin, and at the same time, her mind was quickly thinking about how to deal with it.

"Miss Pei Er's eight characters are excellent."

Xie Yanhe praised with a smile, and she beckoned to Pei Zhengyin.

"Good boy, would you like to go to Huangjue Temple for me to copy Buddhist scriptures for a few days?"

"County Lord ......" Mrs. Pei was shocked. In a gaffe, he actually stood up on the spot.

Although Mrs. Pei doesn't like the coldness and viciousness of this granddaughter, but let the little granddaughter go to Huangjue Temple alone, I don't know when the county lord of Yonghe will let go of his granddaughter out, how can Mrs. Pei bear it.

After all, he is a close relative, and he has been on his knees.

Mrs. Pei was in a hurry and was about to kneel down to beg, but her eldest daughter-in-law held her arm.

"Mother, is it too hot in the sun and you are a little uncomfortable?" Mrs. Pei finally achieved her wish, and she would never allow anyone to destroy it, even if this person was her mother-in-law.

Xie Yanhe didn't seem to see the movement here, she looked at Pei Zhengyin, who had already walked to her, the smile on her face was as sweet as honey, and asked again, "Good boy, are you willing?" ”

Pei Zhengyin completely understood what Xie Yanhe meant. She also thought that her grandmother was dissatisfied with her favor by the county lord of Yonghe, so she spoke out to stop her.

Pei Zhengyin was afraid that his favored grandmother would ruin his good deeds, so he said impatiently: "Back to the county lord, Zheng Yin is willing." ”

Xie Yan and Meimei's eyes curled, and out of the corner of their eyes, they glanced at their future nephew and daughter-in-law, who were always unfazed, and they were very satisfied.

This is the style of everyone's ladies.

Xie Yan achieved his goal, and suddenly lost his patience to continue to perfunctory Pei Zhengyin, and instructed the maid behind him: "Basho, you follow Miss Pei Er back to the room to clean up and salute." ”

The county lord of Yonghe is so strong, and his gestures are full of unquestionable majesty. For a while, several ladies of the Pei family even stopped chatting, looking at their noses and noses, their noses and hearts, those who drank tea drank tea, and those who listened to the drama listened to the play.

Only when Mrs. Pei saw that the matter was a foregone conclusion, her panicked body softened, and thanks to Mrs. Pei secretly holding her up, she did not make a fool of herself on the spot.

Mrs. Pei glanced at the several daughters-in-law who had nothing to do with herself, and then at the second granddaughter who was overjoyed, hurriedly retreated, and was about to go back to pack her things, and her expression was full of tiredness.

Zheng Yin is an idiot, do she know that once she enters the Huangjue Temple, it will be difficult to get out again!

That's it, she can't take care of it! Mrs. Pei sat down again, but she was no longer in the mood to watch the play.

……

On the carriage back to the house, Wang Qingyun said: "I didn't expect that you would send Pei Zhengyin to the temple." ”

The sister-in-law's move is undoubtedly a slap in the face of the Pei family.

Xie Yanhe snorted coldly, and said in an understated tone: "The Pei family has to thank Pei Jingshu." I saw it for her sake, so I didn't get angry with everyone in the second room of the Pei family. Otherwise, I will directly cut off Pei Er's career. ”

Wang Qingyun showed a smile on her face, and quipped: "We are getting more and more powerful now, and I don't know if it's 'close to Zhu Zhechi'?" ”

"What did my sister-in-law say!" Xie Yanhe was made by Wang Qingyun's meaningful words, and his cheeks were infinitely embarrassed.

"Okay, okay, I'll not talk about it." Wang Qingyun smiled and arched her hand, "Sister-in-law can't make amends to you." ”

After speaking, she changed her words and said, "Thanks to you today, if it were me, it would be really difficult to deal with Pei Zhengyin's frivolous and vicious little thing." ”

"Madame Pei is not a bodhisattva. Even if I don't make a move, she won't let this niece go. ”

can operate a virtuous and virtuous reputation, filial piety and generosity, high and tranquil reputation in the capital, unless it is a real saint, it is a delicate person with a crystal heart. Mrs. Pei, she is obviously not the former.

That's true. Before leaving, Mrs. Pei told me that she was going to send her nephew home. The mother died early, and the father remarried, if the biological father and stepmother were good, Mrs. Pei would not have taken her nephew to her side. No matter how good Pei's house is, it is also under the fence. ”

Wang Qingyun didn't have a good impression of the Cheng family's son, who was about to take revenge, it was just a joke tone, she said slowly: "If the father and stepmother of the Cheng family know that he made a mistake and was sent back by Mrs. Pei, I'm afraid the days after this will be even more difficult......"

Mrs. Pei's murder did not see blood, not only did she not damage her reputation at all, but she also taught her nephew a lesson through the hands of the Cheng family.

Moreover, because of the status of the Pei family and the snobbery of the Cheng family, they would never dare to offend the Pei family by talking nonsense.

Just looking at the fact that their family has left their eldest son in Pei's Mansion for so many years and ignored it, they know what kind of virtue this family is.

"Cause and effect. The sins of one's own creation should also be swallowed by oneself. Xie Yanhe said disappreciably.

Since he can listen to the bewitchment of the second room of the Pei family and bite his aunt who has great kindness to him, this son of the Cheng family is not only despicable and shameless, but also stupid.

"County Lord." The cherry, which had disappeared for a long time from Pei's house, got into the carriage.

"Got it all figured out?" Xie Yanhe's slightly squinted pair of peach blossom eyes slowly opened.

"County master, the slave has found out. Mrs. Pei's nephew, since he was taken into the Pei family by Mrs. Pei, has never stepped into the inner courtyard. Miss Pei has never had private contact with her cousin. ”

"As for yesterday's incident, it was Second Mrs. Pei who took advantage of the loophole and bought off the mother-in-law who guarded the door to let people in. I happened to be bumped into by the eldest son of our family. Also, the road that the eldest prince took was also deliberately led by Pei Zhengyin, who was in the second room of the Pei family. ”

Although Cherry is concise, the details are inseparable from the careful planning of the Pei family's second room, otherwise, the timing would not have been so coincidental.

"Yu Xiu, did you hear that?" Xie Yanhe looked sideways at his nephew.
