Chapter 373: Protection
Pei Tong's words stunned everyone.
What does he mean by that?!
What happened?!
The second wife and Gu Xi didn't come back to their senses for a long time.
Pei Yan, who had already guessed a few points, did not avoid it. There was obscurity rolling in his eyes that others couldn't understand, and he stood there with a sneer, as if Pei Tong was an ignorant child who was unreasonable.
Pei Tong was even more annoyed in his heart.
That's it.
This third uncle of his, every time he looks at him, he looks like he is looking at an idiot. And he is indeed an idiot. How could you believe your uncle who hasn't seen each other for a long time and doubt your mother and uncle.
The expression on his face suddenly became hideous.
But his expression fell into the eyes of Yu Tang, who was in a daze, but he shuddered.
Pei Tong hated Pei Yan, Pei Tong wanted Pei Yan to compensate his father, Pei Tong could hurt Pei Yan...... These thoughts flashed through her mind, and her hand appeared in front of Pei Yan's eyes faster than her heartβshe snapped and knocked off Pei Tong's hand stretched out to Pei Yan's collar.
Her people also stopped in front of Pei Yan faster than their hearts, and shouted loudly at Pei Tong, "What are you going to do?" Are you guilty of the following? He's your uncle, but not someone who has nothing to do with you? If you dare to move a finger against him today, you will wait to be kicked out of the Pei family in the name of 'disrespect'!" β
Pei Tong's fingers hurt, and then he heard Yu Tang's angry reprimand.
At the same time as his hand paused, his reason also returned a little.
In any case, Pei Yan is his elder, he calls Pei Yan's name, it is indeed disrespectful to the elders, if he can't say that he is ugly, his reputation will definitely be ruined, and he will lose his qualification for the imperial examination.
No, he can't do that!
He also has to correct his father's name, take care of his mother and younger brother, and he can't be so impulsive.
Impulsiveness does not do him any good except for the pleasure of the moment.
Pei Tong kept telling himself to "calm down", and the hand stretched out to Pei Yan slowly fell beside him.
Pei Yan looked at it but snorted coldly a few times disdainfully.
This is the eldest son of his brother.
It is longer than a woman's hand.
Don't even dare to lose your temper!
Not even questioning!
I don't even have the courage to hit someone!
What is the use of this kind of man?
He couldn't help but speak: "Why don't you shout?" Where are your wife and your second aunt and uncle? Aren't you trying to settle accounts with me? How? I was stopped, I came back to my senses, and I flinched! Why didn't you call me 'Pei Yaoguang' so loudly just now? β
Pei Tong's face turned pale when he listened.
Yu Tang couldn't wait to cover this guy's mouth and drag him aside.
However, covering your mouth is definitely not an option.
He was much taller than her.
But it can be dragged aside.
Yu Tang didn't think much about it, so he pulled Pei Yan to the side.
What a terrible thing this guy is talking about!
Now that Pei Tong has calmed down, who dares to guarantee that he can continue to remain calm after listening to Pei Yan's words?
Pei Yan is too, even if he doesn't want to scold someone with dirty words, stay away from that person. scolded people for the fire, who cares who you are, still a slap, no matter whether the fan is fanned or not, the first thing is to extinguish the momentum, then what kind of quarrel!
Yu Tang muttered in his heart.
I only know that when I talk about others, I am not a half-scoop of water.
She couldn't hold back either, and whispered to Pei Yan: "You don't say a word!" That is, to say, stay away from him! A hero doesn't suffer immediate losses, how can you be so smart when it's critical! β
The wife's voice was gentle and a little crisp, saying words of complaint, but also revealing care and worry that people would not be mistaken.
Pei Yan was like being poured a scoop of cold water head-on in winter, and suddenly calmed down.
He was really too impulsive just now.
Hearing Pei Tong call him "Pei Yaoguang", he was indeed very angry, he was in his head, and he only thought about teaching him a lesson, but he didn't expect Yu Tang to still be by his side.
Gentleman Six Arts, although everyone is not so particular about these now, the Pei family is conservative and conservative, in addition to the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, the children will also learn to ride and shoot fists and feet, Pei Tong has followed his parents in the capital since he was a child, and the lessons he received are more inclined to the Yang family's nouveau riche requirements for "reading and entering the office", and selling them to the emperor's family, which is no longer like the heirs of the Pei family. Although his words hurt him, he really wanted to put his hand on his body, and it depended on whether he was willing or not.
But Yu Tang doesn't know!
No, she was in a hurry, not only knocked off Pei Tong's hand, but also stopped him in front of him, covering him up regardless of right or wrong......
Ah Tang likes him so much that he can't even care about his own safety, so he doesn't even ask about the merits.
Pei Yan felt happy and sweet when he thought about it, and no matter how much dissatisfaction and indignation he had, it disappeared.
Regardless of the daylight, he hugged Yu Tang's shoulders tightly outside the house, and whispered to her, "It's okay!" I know it. You just take care of yourself. β
That being said, how can Yu Tang put his mind at ease! Especially what Pei Tong said just now, every word accused Pei Yan of killing Pei You. Whether it is true or not, if such words are spread, Pei Yan will also take the position of the sect leader of their family, which will be too detrimental to Pei Yan's reputation.
Yu Tang ignored Pei Yan, but frowned, looked at Pei Tong very disapprovingly, and said loudly: "Do you want to speak here, so that the servants in the family can understand and distinguish between right and wrong?" Or go to the book house or the flower hall, and when the second uncle comes back, invite the people from the Yang family and the Gu family to come over and explain it? β
The people of the Yang family are making trouble behind their backs, and they must be called to confront them.
The Gu family is Gu Xi's mother's family, and since ancient times, major events have happened, and the uncle's family is an important witness, so naturally they have to be invited. What's more, Gu Chang has obviously reached an agreement with Pei Yan at present, Gu Chang is not at the mercy of others, he invited people here, not to mention whether he can help or not for the time being, at least it can make the situation more complicated and let more people know what Pei Tong has done?
This is the method that Yu Tang came up with when he spoke.
Pei Tong also wants to know the truth of the facts.
He was just too excited.
Since the Yang family said that his father's death was related to his third uncle, then everyone should make it clear from gong to gong and drum to drum, so as not to let him recognize the thief as his father and have no shame to go to see his father under Jiuquan.
He said "yes" coldly.
Yu Tang immediately asked people to invite the Yang family and the Gu family to come over.
Gu Xi and the second wife came back to their senses at this time.
The second wife wanted to pull Yutang and ask her what was going on, but Yutang was held in Pei Yan's arms, and she was embarrassed to pull Yutang's hand, so she had to say: "I, I'll let people urge her, let the second master come back quickly!" β
Yu Tang nodded.
Gu Xi scolded Pei Tong in his heart.
How can there be such stupid people?
Even if Pei You's death has something to do with Pei Yan, he has neither fame nor power at this time, and he is still begging for a living under his two uncles, why should he turn his face against Pei Yan? Even if he is indignant but wants to turn his face, can he first draw Pei Xuan to his side, and Pei Xuan will help him out?
There is nothing to rely on around, so he dares to shout here, and dare to let the people of the Pei family just call the people of the Yang family like this? Can't you find a way to report to the people of the Yang family before the people of the Pei family call the Yang family, so that the people of the Yang family can be prepared?
Gu Xi was so angry that his chest fell together, and his mind was spinning rapidly, but the person took a few steps back again and again without knowing it, and was a little farther away from Pei Tong.
She glanced around.
The second wife was embarrassed to look at Yu Tang and Pei Yan, blushing, and was leaning sideways to talk to the mother-in-law beside her. Pei Yan had a smile in his eyes, and said something to Yu Tang, Yu Tang couldn't help nodding his head, and occasionally responded softly to Pei Yan a few words, and the two were so affectionate that they seemed to be able to smell the smell of sugar. And her good husband Pei Tong, who didn't know what he was thinking, stood there with a blank expression, as if the anger just now had swallowed all the essence and spirit in his body, and he couldn't burst out any more blood.
She quietly breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly summoned Hexiang, and whispered to her to find a way to tell Gu Chang what had just happened, and said, "You must be ahead of the Pei family." Don't let the eldest young master step on the thunder without knowing anything. β
In this way, his brother can consider whether to get involved in the Pei family's matter? What excuse is it better not to come? What should I say when I come? Which side are you on?
Hexiang was already frightened by Pei Tong just now, and when she heard Gu Xi say this, she didn't know where it was powerful, so she ran away in a hurry.
It's just that although she ran away, she couldn't get out of the house.
When he was at the side door, he was stopped by the mother-in-law in Yutang's house with a smile, and said, "Where are you going?" Don't you want you to serve over there? Something happened at home today, and the third wife said that no one in the inner house can get out of this door, from sweeping the floor to watering the flowers. You are the most powerful person in front of the young grandmother, don't make it difficult for us to do things. β
Whether Ren Hexiang said good things or made the silver useless, she was still stopped by Yu Tang's people in the side door.
He Xiang had no choice but to run back to find Gu Xi.
There was no one on the verandah, and Hexiang searched for a long time, only to find that Gu Xi and the others had gone to the flower hall in Pei Yan's courtyard, which was closest to here.
Hexiang entered the flower hall lightly, only to find that the people who followed the second wife, the third wife, and even the third master just now were not only very considerate, such as Mama Jin next to the second wife, Qingyuan next to the third wife, and the others were gone, and the maid who served the tea and poured water was all replaced by someone she didn't know, and she wanted to inquire about what happened after she left, and there was no acquaintance.
She couldn't help but feel furious in her heart, and ran to Gu Xi's side, getting as close to Gu Xi as possible.
Gu Xi was displeased, and asked her in a low voice, "What's the matter?" β
Hexiang glanced at the flower hall where the sound of the teacup was infinitely amplified because of the silence, suppressed the sound and whispered to Gu Xi: "Can't get out!" The third lady asked people to guard the side door. Those who say they are in the house are not allowed to go out. After she finished speaking, she thought for a while, and then said, "I came all the way, and I didn't meet anyone." β
In other words, the inner house has been controlled, and without Yu Tang, no one can walk around.
But she kept staring at Yu Tang just now, when did Yu Tang order to go down? Qingyuan was also by her side just now, who was the word on behalf of Yu Tang?
Gu Xi was a little confused.
A little guy ran in and gasped, "The second master is back!" β
