The cannon fodder original wife's bad story

Chapter 1389

Pei Yulin's chubby little face was serious. "But my aunt and fourth aunt are also my closest elders. They are not my biological mother, but they are better than my biological mother. If they have any instructions, Huan-ge will definitely serve them and never leave them."

Qin Ge'er and Ling Ge'er shouted in unison, "You actually used the Classic of Filial Piety, which the teacher made us memorize, here!"

These words warmed Qi Yue's heart. She hugged and kissed him, calling him her darling, showing how much she loved him.

Song Guanzhou, however, looked at it carefully and actually became interested.

She glanced up at Xiao Yinxiu, then looked back at Pei Chen. Pei Chen had just put down his teacup when their eyes met. He immediately felt awkward and was about to speak when Song Guanzhou spoke up, "Second brother, second sister-in-law, if I really can't have children, Huan-ge can go between the two."

Ouch!

Zhang Fanghui and Xu Lingqiao exclaimed that this was absolutely wrong. One gently patted Xiao Yinxiu, while the other advised Song Guanzhou, "Guanzhou, you are still young. Take some time to recuperate, and things will naturally fall into place."

Pei Chen sighed, "Fourth Brother, are you just letting Guan Zhou spout nonsense? I can't bear to part with my Huan-ge'er!"

Most people thought it was a joke, but little did they know that Pei An had also taken it to heart.

“Huan’er has always been close to Guanzhou. If my second brother and sister-in-law have a few more children, it would be good for Huan’er to stay with my husband and me.”

What?

Pei An received a heavy blow from Pei Chen, "Nonsense!"

Xiao Yinxiu also realized what was happening and looked at Song Guanzhou with a half-smile, "Sister-in-law, you're young and don't know any better. A child is only truly close to one born of oneself. Besides, if you find the pain of childbirth unbearable, that's easy. Let Silang take another concubine, like Qiao'er in my room. The one born from her belly will have to call me 'Mother' in the future, won't she..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Song Guanzhou rested his chin on one hand, blinking his almond-shaped black eyes at Xiao Yinxiu, "That's because Second Sister-in-law is broad-minded, but I'm not as good as Second Sister-in-law at this matter."

"Guan Zhou, you must not be a jealous woman."

Pei Chen spoke up, actually siding with Xiao Yinxiu. Song Guanzhou turned around and snorted, "Second brother, in this respect, none of you are like Mother, but I am."

What does it look like?

One or two didn't react, but Pei An heard it and remembered it. He couldn't help but say, "Guan Zhou, don't talk nonsense. I'm not the second brother either."

Of course, I wouldn't let you do what your mother did, ruthlessly killing Aunt Qin and her son.

Song Guanzhou's eyes turned cold. "—That's good."

Xiao Yinxiu was about to say a few more words of reprimand, but Song Guanzhou didn't give her any face. He fiddled with the dishes and said, "Second sister-in-law is always busy with her affairs, so you don't need to worry about my little things. Children are not important to me."

What?

These words were utterly outrageous, almost a provocation against the understanding of men and women in this era. Xiao Yinxiu refused to believe it even if she were beaten to death. How could a woman live a peaceful life if she did not bear children after marriage?

Is it really adoption?

Living in such a grand and secluded mansion as the Duke's mansion was not a pleasant experience.

"Sisters-in-law, please rest assured. Guanzhou and I are not old, and we can't rush our children." Pei An spoke, easing the tension. Xiao Yinxiu smiled faintly, "Alright, we, as your sisters-in-law, can't interfere in your marital affairs. It's just that Guanzhou is young and doesn't know the full story, but Fourth Brother is an official in the court. If he has no children, what hope will he have in his life?"

The gist is, even if you have no children, what good is it if you hold a high position, second only to the emperor?

What's the point if there's no tradition?

These words made Pei Chen's mind heavy. Xiao Bei and Xu Lingbai looked over and knew that although Xiao Yinxiu's words were unpleasant, they were true.

However, since the two were cousins ​​and not related by marriage, they couldn't discuss such private matters at the family banquet.

Silence is the best policy, but it cannot hide the worry.

Xiao Bei was worried that, given Pei An's current doting on Song Guanzhou, he might not care about having children. If he didn't have a son or daughter, that would be a great act of filial impiety!

Xu Lingbai was worried that if his cousin didn't have a child to rely on, she would have a hard time getting around in this mansion. Just look at what happened today; the young master's wife was pressing her every step of the way, trying to use the fact that she hadn't had a child after two years of marriage to put her in a difficult position.

Xu Lingqiao is thoughtful and considers things more deeply than her brother.

When she looked over, she expected to see her cousin's unresolved depression, but to her surprise, Song Guanzhou seemed to have a telepathic connection, slightly raised his eyes, and playfully winked at her.

Sigh! I must say, this boat-watching guy has a really big heart...

Once the small banquet ended, the matter was dropped. After the banquet, Pei An helped Song Guanzhou walk back. Song Guanzhou complained that he had too much of an arm around Song Guanzhou's arm, saying, "I can walk faster with my cane."

"You slow down."

The couple walked carefully by the dim light of the lantern. "Don't take what my second sister-in-law said to heart."

"Of course not."

Pressuring people to get married and have children? No problem at all!

In her past life, she didn't get married and endured all sorts of pressure to get married from people she knew all over the world. She was mentally strong, so what could these outsiders' opinions do?

It couldn't sway her in the slightest.

"What is meant for us will come to us, Guanzhou, don't take it to heart."

Song Guanzhou helped him down the steps. "Si Lang, do you mind? A man establishes a family and career so that there will be successors."

"I've told you before, but that's not entirely true."

The couple had said these words before, and now they were saying them again. Pei An, as always, said many words to comfort Song Guanzhou.

“I understand what you’re saying, but you shouldn’t follow my example, Second Brother.”

Song Guanzhou appropriately expressed his jealousy, which helped the couple's relationship. Sure enough, Pei An smiled broadly, "My wife at home is so domineering, I, Pei Si, am powerless to deal with her alone."

"Si Lang is too weak to have both women on his left and right."

Song Guanzhou covered his mouth and sneered. How could Pei An not understand? He half-supported and half-raised Song Guanzhou, and carried him to the main house in Shaohua Garden.

"Hey hey hey! Take off your clothes and bathe, then we can talk about other things."

It's hot, and no matter where you go, you come back covered in sweat.

Ren Dong got up, enduring her discomfort, and had Zhuang Gu Meng Sao bring in hot water. He Hua, along with Qing Fang and Qing Fei, first helped Song Guan Zhou wash his whole body clean, and even carefully wiped his injured leg with a wet towel.

Pei An followed.

After taking a bath, the couple felt refreshed and invigorated. The night was dark, and the stars were shining brightly.

After burning mugwort to repel mosquitoes, Song Guanzhou and Pei An, dressed in beige silk robes and soft trousers, had someone remove the sunshade and sat there stargazing.

“Yesterday, Prince Yong asked Prince Cheng, a member of the imperial family, to act as matchmaker and sent the betrothal letter to the princess’s villa.”

Song Guanzhou turned his head and heard the news. "Jin Fuyun really agreed to this marriage?"

The time for exchanging betrothal gifts has come, which means the marriage process is about to begin. Has Jin Fuyun given up on the man before her? Probably not!

"With the Empress Dowager's approval, Fuyun's opinion is irrelevant."

Did she say anything to you privately?

Song Guanzhou grabbed Pei An's large hand and began to play with it. "She broke with Qin Er, but she can't abandon you too."

The original story never depicts Jin Fuyun backing down.
