Chapter 1004 Chapter 1004
Pei Chen almost wet Pei An's shoulder with tears. He spoke drunkenly, but these were all words that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time.
Once you start, you can hardly stop.
"This morning, I asked my eldest sister to take mother away. Fourth brother, I didn't do it well, but I finally made up my mind!"
"Brother, this is not your fault. It's the mother's fault, not the child's fault. As a son, I am showing the greatest tolerance for you."
There is no sacrifice of relatives for the sake of justice, and no grouping.
That's enough!
Pei An knew that nothing could be perfect.
If you can get six out of ten, it means the time, place and people are all right.
"Second brother has also let Guanzhou down. She is all alone and helpless, yet she is still bullied by her aunt and sister-in-law..." The more he spoke, the more outrageous it became. He kept mumbling and his tongue was broken.
Pei An didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Don't worry, I will treat Guan Zhou well."
The road was not long, but because of Pei Chen's commotion, they walked for a long time. By the time they arrived at the courtyard gate, the heavy snow had made their hair white.
"No, I don't want to go back to Ah Xiu!"
Pei Chen started to make a fuss, but the noise attracted Xiao Yinxiu who was in the room. She spent most of the day in tears and would not stop no matter who tried to persuade her.
Finished!
Her mind was blank, with only these two words in mind.
In the small Buddhist temple, with just a few words, she stripped off her dignity and reputation and trampled on the ground in front of her two sisters-in-law, especially the eldest sister-in-law. Knowing that Pei Qiuyun was the great god she had invited, she knew what she was up to.
He claims to be smart, but in fact, people have already seen through him.
She was like the red butt of a mountain monkey, and she wished she could die in public.
Of course, dying requires courage.
Of course Xiao Yinxiu wouldn't. She was just sad, upset, at a loss, and panicked, and could only cry.
There was quite a commotion in the morning.
The servants in the inner courtyard of the mansion were whispering to each other, and soon they all knew that the Princess of Ming County had arrived. The whole mansion was mobilized, and even the three brothers who were studying, the second daughter who was hiding in the house, and even the baby Minjie were brought to the small Buddhist temple.
Just to meet the old lady.
The old lady is coming out?
The maid who had been supported and employed by the old lady in the past could not help but feel secretly happy at this moment. This mansion had long been absurd and out of order.
It's time for the old lady to come out and restore order.
Otherwise, would the government office still be a government office?
Of course, those who are valued by the eldest young lady have another kind of worry, fearing that the old lady will make a comeback and suppress them again.
Besides sighing and groaning, he also couldn't do his work efficiently.
There were a lot of things going on that day, and the delay still alarmed some people, such as Zhang Fanghui who was in confinement after giving birth.
"Well, what big thing happened?"
The maid ran in hurriedly, with snow still on her shoes. Zhang Fanghui looked over and wanted to scold her, but the girl beside the bed had just been coaxed to sleep.
The wet nurse stood up, winked at the maid, and said to her the truth, "If you wake up my sister, I will skin you alive."
The little maid immediately covered her mouth and carefully considered before lowering her voice and saying, "The princess is back, and the master has summoned all the masters in the mansion to go to the small Buddhist temple to pay their respects to the old lady."
Aunt, are you out of trouble?
Not long after, the little maid came again to report, "Young Madam, something big has happened. The Princess of the County has left the mansion with her two sisters, and the Crown Prince's wife seems... seems to be crying too."
"And where is my aunt?"
Uh……
The little maidservant murmured, "It's still in the small Buddhist hall."
Something was not right, so the maid called a few more maids and asked them to go out. When they came back soon, they heard gossips from them, which made Zhang Fanghui terrified.
If my aunt is fine, why is my eldest sister crying?
Sitting there waiting for someone to pass on the message, Zhang Fanghui was really anxious. Regardless of the fact that she had not given birth to a full month, she asked the maid to carry her over and tried to comfort her for a long time, but she could not relieve Xiao Yinxiu's distress.
"Eldest sister, why bother yourself with unnecessary troubles? My uncle hasn't said he's going to punish you yet."
Xiao Yinxiu's eyes were red and swollen, and she sighed softly, "One wrong step, and all the wrong steps. If my uncle insists on spreading rumors and divorcing me, what should I do?"
She couldn't imagine how the two brothers would survive in the future without their mother.
"Absolutely not. You haven't done anything against the will of heaven and have given birth to two beloved sons for your brother-in-law. How can you just divorce me?"
Xiao Yinxiu felt mixed emotions when he heard this.
She couldn't tell Zhang Fanghui how ugly what she had done was, but she couldn't suppress the panic in her heart. At this time, Pei Chen was busy asking the imperial physician for Mrs. Mei.
I was so busy all day that I didn't even get started.
The knife was hanging over his head, and no one told him whether to chop or leave it. Needless to say, Xiao Yinxiu was very panicked.
After waiting for a long time until late at night and everyone was asleep, Pei Chen's movements were heard.
He walked quickly, but before he reached the gate, he heard Pei Chen shouting at the top of his voice, "I don't want to see Ah Xiu! No! No! No!"
A series of "no"s directly nailed Xiao Yinxiu to the wall.
She was stunned under the eaves, at a loss as to what to do. Pei An looked up and saw her in the shadows. "Sister-in-law, my second brother is drunk. I'll take him inside."
"Send...send it to my room?"
Pei An nodded, "I'm afraid there will be some trouble. My sister-in-law will be tired today."
"No! Fourth Brother, I won't go..."
Pei Chen wanted to resist, but he was too weak. Pei An didn't give in to him. He shook Pei Chen a few times to steady his body before walking towards Xiao Yinxiu into the house.
"Thank you for your hard work today, fourth brother."
Xiao Yinxiu's voice was hoarse as she whispered her thanks. Pei An shook his head and said, "We're brothers, no need to be polite." After putting Pei Chen on the couple's bed, Pei Chen hugged the quilt, rolled inside, and fell into a deep sleep.
The room was brightly lit by candlelight. Pei An turned around and saw Xiao Yinxiu's red and swollen eyes. He knew that she had been anxious that day, but he didn't say much. He just said a few words of concern to Pei Chen and said goodbye.
When he came out, the cold wind blew and Pei An felt that he was sweating all over.
"Second brother, it doesn't look heavy, but it takes effort to carry it."
When they reached the fork in the road, they ran into Jindong and the others who had returned from Mrs. Mei's place. "Fourth Young Master, have you been drinking?"
A cold wind blew, carrying with it the smell of wine.
When Pei An saw Ren Dong, he remembered that Mrs. Mei was not feeling well. He nodded slightly and asked, "How is the Second Madam?"
Honeysuckle knelt and saluted, "Don't worry, Fourth Young Master. I received a pill from Doctor Sun. Before the imperial physician arrived, I vomited out the foul matter that had been stuck in my chest for days. The imperial physician performed acupuncture and asked for medicine. Although it was dangerous during this period, with a high fever and convulsions, after dark, my breathing gradually stabilized and my complexion eased."
It's considered an improvement.
Pei An nodded, "When you get up tomorrow morning, remember to call me and Guan Zhou to go visit Second Aunt."
"Yes, Fourth Young Master."
After the reply, there was no more words between the master and servant. Although Pei An had drunk a lot of wine, he was not drunk. He returned to Shaohua Garden with a steady gait.
As soon as I entered the inner room, I met Song Guanzhou coming out of the shower.
