Chapter 997 Chapter 997
Pei Chen was about to step out after hearing what the maid said, but suddenly stopped and looked back at Pei Qiuyun and Xiao Yinxiu. "You two are my closest relatives. I understand very well that you both have so many concerns. But mother is at the end of her rope now. She's gone berserk. If we let her out again, we'd be doing something we know is wrong and would only harm more people."
Having said this, Pei Chen turned and left.
He spoke smoothly, as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders. In the past, he had suffered from receiving the most love from his mother, and had become timid.
He felt guilty towards his third brother.
He also felt guilty towards the fourth brother's family.
His cowardice allowed him to eat, drink and have fun, but when he returned to this mansion, he felt ashamed.
However, this year, the Xiao family came to Beijing and lived in the government mansion. Xiao Cang and Song Guanzhou quarreled all day long, and he had to come out to mediate many times. Gradually, he became close to everyone.
In the past, Song Guanzhou called him the second brother of the prince.
Now, I call him second brother.
Including the fourth brother, he was also quite close to them. He gradually discovered that this mansion would have to rely on him to support it in the future, and he didn't need to be very capable. After all, the emperor did not like capable masters.
As long as you stay stable, it is better than experiencing ups and downs.
His mother became a thorn in his heart.
Rescue it?
No! Pei Chen, no longer a man with no ambition, never knelt before his father to plead for his mother. Only those who truly knew his mother's cruelty could understand that a demon lived deep in her heart.
But I can't bear to be cruel!
Until this time when Jin Fuyun plotted against Song Guanzhou and the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, he followed his father in and out, knelt before the emperor, and recounted all the grievances word by word.
My father is very old.
But he still had to protect the descendants of the Pei family. As for his extremely confused eldest sister, he thought that how could he wake up such a stubborn person with just a few words?
Never mind, I just do my best.
In just a few steps, he walked more and more briskly. When he opened the door, Qi Yueniang walked up to him with a worried look on her face, "Second brother, Second Aunt is bedridden and can't be woken up even if you call her."
"So serious?"
Qi Yueniang nodded and said, "Earlier, Feng'er sent a maid to tell me that Guanzhou and I had just gone there, and Second Aunt had fallen asleep and couldn't be woken up even after shaking her."
"Didn't you call a doctor?"
"I did invite him, but I don't know why, it gets heavier day by day. Oh! Second uncle went to practice Taoism and is not in the capital, and my younger brother Hua is also out working——"
"I'll go take a look right away."
Pei Chen didn't dare to delay, and Qi Yueniang followed behind him and suggested that they call an imperial physician.
"Okay, sister-in-law, please bear with me. I'll go see if my father has returned to Zhengxian Pavilion and tell him."
The two were about to say goodbye when Qi Yueniang suddenly called out to Pei Chen, "Eldest sister and Ah Xiu...are you all right?"
Ah!
Pei Chen waved his hand, "Sister-in-law is smart, don't pay attention to their stupid brains. They are still in the house now, sister-in-law, don't worry about them, just go and see Qin Ge'er."
that--
Qi Yueniang was slightly stunned, "Second brother, what about Mother...?"
"It will remain the same as it was before."
Pei Chen had already lifted his robe and walked down the stone steps. As if he had thought of something, he turned back to look at Qi Yueniang, "Sister-in-law can't go to Third Brother's place. The whole mansion cannot do without sister-in-law. It's absolutely unacceptable."
Qi Yueniang was so surprised to hear this that she didn't react.
His face was expressionless, and he didn't respond.
Pei Chen smiled and said, "Although my sister-in-law is wronged, being able to marry a sister-in-law to my eldest brother is one of the few things mother has done...but it is the right thing."
The housekeeper for this important matter has to be Qi Yue Niang.
After saying this, Pei Chen drifted away, leaving Qi Yueniang and her maid Lanxiang looking at each other in bewilderment. "Madam, the prince is praising you."
"This..., second brother, this is, eh!"
Qi Yueniang blushed. It was rare for Pei Chen to speak like that. Her mood immediately improved and she helped Lanxiang back to Kuoyuezhai.
Just now, the little maidservant serving Xiao Yinxiu said that the two sisters and three brothers of the Prince's Mansion were all in Kuoyuezhai.
"The Princess of the County and the Crown Prince's wife were very surprised that they actually sent their children to our house."
Hey!
Qi Yueniang sighed softly, "Where else can we send it? Seeing this scene, it must be something bad. It would be bad if my sisters and brothers heard it."
Zhang Fanghui was still in confinement after giving birth, and when a bunch of children were sent there, they started making so much noise that it could have blown the roof off the house.
As soon as they arrived at the entrance of Kuoyuezhai, they heard a commotion inside. Qi Yueniang heard it and hurried out to jog. The maid who happened to run out also breathed a sigh of relief when she saw it was Qi Yueniang. "Young Madam, go and have a look! Ling'er and Yun'er are fighting."
Oh my god!
It's a mess!
When Qi Yueniang entered the room, the two children were pulling each other's hair. Yun Jie'er was taller, but Ling Ge'er was not to be outdone. The two of them grabbed each other tightly and insulted each other viciously.
On the side, Qin Ge'er stopped Liu Wan who was about to help.
Huan Ge'er stood by and shouted, "Brother, beat her! Beat her!"
Gee!
"release!"
Qi Yueniang could no longer hesitate and rushed forward. She finally pulled the two children apart. Liu Yun's double buns also loosened on one side. Her eyes were filled with tears. "Aunt, look at this! Pei Yulin is unreasonable and hits people!"
After saying this, his eyes became hot and tears started to flow.
"Ling'er, this is your cousin, why did you hit her?"
The teenage boy was also angry. His chest rose and fell as he pointed at Liu Yun, "Don't think you're so great. We don't care about you!"
Qi Yueniang then asked Liu Wan and Liu Yun, "Good children, tell your aunt that it was your younger brothers who were naughty and bullied you?"
Liu Wan is older and more sensible.
When asked the reason, he looked embarrassed, and after hesitating for a while, he said softly, "Aunt, we just had a little quarrel, it's nothing serious."
Seeing that she refused to speak, Qi Yueniang couldn't force her, so she could only pull her son over and said, "Qin'er, tell me, brother, why did Ling'er and your cousin Yun start fighting? How can a man hit a girl, especially a close relative!"
Qin Ge'er stiffened his neck and said nothing.
Qi Yue Niang tried to comfort the tearful Liu Yun while questioning Qin Ge'er and the others. She kept asking them questions, but they remained silent with red faces. Finally, she pointed at Qin Ge'er and the others helplessly and said, "I'll let your second uncle come and teach you a lesson later. This is truly outrageous. You're sisters, and you don't care about each other, but you're fighting!"
When Ling Ge'er heard this, he became even more angry.
"Aunt, she was wrong. Her words were hurtful!"
"I don't!"
Liu Yun wiped her tears and said, "That's not what I meant!"
The two of them roared, and the older and younger ones also joined in the noise. In an instant, the room became as noisy and disturbing as a vegetable market.
"Okay, okay, everyone has been studying for nothing. Lanxiang, go and invite the prince!"
It was a false remark, but it frightened the children. Qi Yueniang hugged Liu Yun and called her darling, "Don't be afraid, your second uncle will definitely give them a beating when he comes."
Huh? I'm going to get beaten?!
Huan Ge'er pulled his two brothers and said, "Hurry up, let's go to Fourth Aunt's place!"
