Chapter 700: The Life-Saving Benefactor Who Asks for Revenge (8)
Pei Mansion, at the same time, Mrs. Pei, the head of the Pei family, was also mentioning Pei Ran's family affairs with a worried face, and she was about to ask her third son in despair: "This time I went to the Wei family for a banquet, I should always look at a little girl, right?" ”
Pei Ran, that is, the handsome son who was "molested" by An Nan in the Wei family, was expressionless, did not understand his mother's mood at all, shook his head categorically, and said, "No, those girls are too boring." ”
"And what exactly are you looking for?" Mrs. Pei gritted her teeth and asked this unconscious son.
Pei Ran said confidently: "How do I know, anyway, those women who are one-eyed make me not have the slightest interest." ”
Mrs. Pei suddenly closed her eyes, suggesting that she had to endure and not be angry.
After a long time, Mrs. Pei, who finally adjusted her mood, glared at Pei Ran and said, "The girls cultivated by the big family are like this, just be able to teach each other and manage family affairs, what kind of fun do you want to find?" If you can't find it, are you going to be a bachelor for the rest of your life? ”
"It doesn't matter." Pei Ran's dead pig was not afraid of boiling water and said.
"You don't care! But your fourth brother is also old enough to marry a wife! You, the pestle who is an elder brother, are embarrassed not to marry a wife, and let him accompany you to fight a bachelor? Mrs. Pei said angrily.
Pei Ran was stunned, obviously he didn't expect this, no wonder his fourth brother always looked at him with accusatory eyes, it turned out that he was disgusted and blocked his way to marry a wife.
"That'...... Let him marry first? Pei Ran said.
"No! Grow young and orderly! Where is there a person who crosses the elder brother and the younger brother marries first? Mrs. Pei disagreed.
"Then I can't help it, so I can only let him accompany me, anyway, he is not very old now, and he can drag on ......for a few years," Pei Ran said.
Mrs. Pei glared at him: "Why is it small?" Among those sons of the same age as your brother, apart from filial piety or really unbearable, who else has not married a wife? If you don't marry yourself when you reach twenty, you have to drag your brother to twenty, are you still a person? ”
Pei Ran choked suddenly, touched his nose, his momentum couldn't help weakening, and asked curtly, "Do you have to marry a wife?" ”
"You can't drag your fourth brother to be a bachelor like you!" Mrs. Pei looked at him coldly.
Pei Ran sighed and compromised helplessly: "Okay, but mother, if I marry a girl who is not interested, I will probably snub her, and if there is a disturbance in the house at that time, you will have to deal with it for me......"
"Okay, okay! I'll deal with it! As long as you are willing to take a wife! As soon as Mrs. Pei heard that he was relieved, her face suddenly changed, and the anger just now was suddenly replaced by a bright smile.
Mrs. Pei also broke her heart in order to let him marry a wife.
"You really don't have a girl to look at? Even if you don't, you have to tell me what you like, right? Mrs. Pei asked her son in a kind tone like a spring breeze, which was in stark contrast to her previous look.
Pei Ran just wanted to say no, but the appearance of a smiling girl who was bold enough to tease him suddenly appeared in his mind, and it suddenly became distinct.
So he changed his words in an instant, and said, "Just have a round face, round eyes, like to laugh, be bold, and have a thick skin." ”
“?” Mrs. Pei asked speechlessly, "What does it mean to be thick-skinned?" ”
Pei Ran coughed lightly and said, "It's nothing, anyway, I'm bold, I don't care so much about the rules." ”
He said it according to An Nan's temperament.
Anyway, that woman offended him, so he didn't have so much guilt for marrying her back and snubbing her, and looking at her appearance, even if he ignored her, she could find fun on her own, right?
So he thought that instead of harming those young ladies who didn't know him, it would be better to harm the one who didn't know how to live or dare to tease him.
Although Mrs. Pei felt that her son's request was a bit strange, after all, when his eldest brother and second brother married a wife, the requirements were all beautiful appearance, gentle temperament and virtuous lady; And when he came to him, he had a round face and round eyes, and he was bold......
"Okay, then the mother will find it for you according to this request, you can't regret finding it." Mrs. Pei said in a solemn tone.
"No regrets." Pei Ran said.
Suddenly remembered something, and added: "By the way, it's better to have the surname An." ”
After speaking, he didn't wait for Mrs. Pei to respond, and left immediately.
When Mrs. Pei first heard it, she wondered: "What is the surname An?" ”
After reacting after a while, he couldn't help but call out to the son who had escaped: "Which surname is An, you tell me clearly!" ”
Pei Ran had already run away, where would he answer her.
After Mrs. Pei finished shouting, she couldn't help but laugh and scolded: "This kid obviously has a candidate in his heart, but he wants to ask me something, and he has a round face, round eyes, and a lot of courage!" No wonder these requirements are so clear and special, it turns out that they are specifically referred to! ”
Knowing her son's thoughts, Mrs. Pei excitedly asked how many little girls surnamed An were there who went to the Wei family for the banquet that day, and who they were.
In the end, there was only one girl surnamed An, and Mrs. Pei quickly found An Nan, who attended the banquet with Mrs. An that day.
When she heard that Miss An had not decided on her family, she was overjoyed, and it seemed that the third son's family affairs had been settled.
On the other hand, An's mother was also running around for An Nan's family affairs, and she quickly found out about Pei Ran's situation.
Pei Ran's grandfather used to live in the three grades, is the Ministry of Rites, and his father is now also an official from the three grades, although the Pei family has only developed in the capital for these two generations, but the family is prosperous, and the children are prosperous, which is obviously a sign of great prosperity.
However, the Pei family has only made a fortune in two or three generations, and the population is large, and the family foundation is a little thin, not to mention that in Pei Ran's generation, there are three of his siblings alone, and there are two brothers, counting up, his father's generation also has three brothers......
In this way, if the family is divided, there will be nothing, but if the children and grandchildren can earn a way by themselves, then it is another story.
Therefore, the Pei family attaches great importance to reading, and Pei Ran's brothers are all pressed by Pei's father to study and gain fame, in this way, they can be elders and help their children and grandchildren in the official career, otherwise if they can't embark on a career in office, they can only wait to be separated.
Pei Ran's two eldest brothers have already achieved fame, and Pei eldest brother has already embarked on a career in office, while Pei Erge has taken the examination and has not yet been admitted to the Jinshi.
When Pei Ran arrived, he was also admitted to the exam, but he didn't want to continue the exam, because he didn't want to study and become an official, but wanted to be an elegant scribe, write calligraphy, draw a picture, play chess, and play the piano, but he didn't want to be an official in mediocrity.
