The cannon fodder original wife's bad story

Chapter 459

Song Guanzhou slammed the table in a proud tone, "It is an honor for Guanzhou to have Fourth Cousin come here, but where is Fourth Cousin's wife? My cousin is cooking today, it would be a pity if she doesn't come and taste the soup."

Xiao Bei waved his hand, "She left yesterday and went to visit the Gao family."

"Gao family?"

Song Guanzhou had never heard of this name. Xiao Bei smiled and said, "The Gao family is engaged in jade business in Xifang City. Your sister-in-law's best friend, Ms. Cheng, married her third son three years ago. Now she is pregnant, so she went to stay for a few days."

It turned out to be the case.

The five of them sat down and enjoyed their meal.

However, he didn't know that the Zhengxian Pavilion was full of turmoil. As soon as he entered the door, Xiao Yinxiu knelt down to apologize. Pei Jian asked Pei Chen to help him up, "Is what is written on this letter true?"

The letter was handed to Xiao Yinxiu. Although she was not well-read, she could read.

After reading it, she broke out in a cold sweat and immediately looked up to explain, "Uncle, I... I never told Miss Jin this before. Some time ago, Miss Jin and I visited each other several times, and she also sent a maid to send gifts in return. She said that she was busy with household affairs and was afraid that she would neglect me and wanted to visit me less frequently. Who would have thought that today..."

"Axiu!"

Pei Jian could not let her fool him, and emphasized his tone, "If we were in normal communication, would your father have stopped you? The robbery and murder at Longen Temple, Jingzhao Yin has not yet given an explanation, Jin Fuyun's letter clearly stated it, you personally told her that the women were going to burn incense--"

Xiao Yinxiu's face was full of tears. She no longer acted politely and begged for mercy in a low voice, "It was my fault that I let it slip, but you have no ill intentions..."

"How do you know there is no ill intention? Can you not remember the past grudges that the Jin family had against our family? And the gold bricks and porcelains? I told you, your room is full of all these things. Did the Xiao family treat you unfairly, or did my Pei family treat you poorly?"

Xiao Yinxiu didn't dare to say anything at this moment, she just lowered her head and sobbed.

"Father, this ignorant woman said this morning that Miss Jin doesn't like my fourth brother's wife. Now it seems that she has been communicating with that woman in private and has talked about many things in the mansion. I have never seen such a stupid woman who is so treacherous!"

Pei Chen had never been polite to Xiao Yinxiu.

The husband and wife were at loggerheads with each other.

Originally, they had been able to get by with some bumps in the road. It was like this in every family's mansion. But today, Pei Chen heard that Jin Fuyun and Xiao Yinxiu were having such a close relationship behind his back.

No matter whether he was in front of his father or not, he could no longer control his temper and vented his anger towards Xiao Yinxiu.

Xiao Yinxiu didn't dare to say much now, and let Pei Chen point at her and curse at her.

It was Pei Jian who scolded him, and Pei Chen stopped talking. He stood beside him, his eyes wide open and full of hatred. If it weren't for Jin Meng's scheme, how could his father resign his military power and return home?

Xiao Yinxiu felt wronged, but she could not bear to feel wronged any more. Pei Jian sent Pei Chen to say, "As an elder, I should not interfere too much in the affairs of your courtyard. But I cannot sit idly by today. Guan Zhou and Lin Shan almost lost their lives. Chen'er, you and Ah Xiu go back to the house and take stock of what Jin Fuyun sent when he went back and forth."

what?

Xiao Yinxiu looked up suddenly when she heard this, "Uncle, what my daughter-in-law accepted was just an ordinary item, and the return gift is the same."

"Then what's the point of these gold bricks? Ah Xiu, you know that ordinary people may not be able to save up such a gold brick in their lifetime."

"Uncle, I don't know what the eldest girl thinks of this gift today..."

Pei Chen snorted coldly, "What exactly is it? I'll find out after I catch your maids and interrogate them. You're getting more and more rampant now, woman. If the Longen Temple case is related to the Jin family, then you're a spy collaborating with the enemy!"

"Pei Chen, I am also devoted to this family. If the fourth brother can be friends with Miss Jin, why can't I do the same?"

They also have differences between men and women.

Pei Jian waved his hand to stop the couple from arguing, "Let's go check first to see if there's anything that Ah Xiu doesn't know about that was smuggled in."

After saying that, he pointed to the unique hairpin flower in the lacquer box and said, "A Xiu, do you know what flower this is?"

Xiao Yinxiu looked over and saw a hairpin with a few green leaves against a small flower. The style and workmanship were okay, but not as grand and luxurious as peonies, double-petal chrysanthemums, phoenixes and peacocks.

Pei Chen looked in the direction he was looking, and after a while he spoke in a hesitant voice.

"Father, is this a green radish flower?"

Pei Jian nodded, picked up the hairpin, pointed at the mark on the bottom and said to the couple, "The eldest girl's grandmother used it exclusively for Princess Ruixiang. This item looks ordinary, I'm afraid it's also Princess Ruixiang's legacy." At this point, he looked at Xiao Yinxiu who was in shock, "I gave you this box of items today, do you still think it's ordinary now?"

Xiao Yinxiu fell to his knees with a thud.

"Uncle, please allow me to report that I only had tea with that young lady twice and talked about some boudoir matters, but never mentioned the livelihood of the family."

"Did you mention Guanzhou?"

Pei Chen hit the nail on the head, grabbed Xiao Yinxiu's wrist and asked sternly. Xiao Yinxiu was so frightened at this moment that she murmured, "I mentioned it several times, and she just said that if the fourth son married a woman like Song who didn't know how to manage, he would probably ruin his life because of Song. These words are very common!"

"usually?"

Pei Chen said without thinking, "If it was normal, why would that thief only target Guan Zhou, a lame man, and kill him? You know that day in Longen Temple, Lin Shan was lured away several times. The thief didn't want to kill me, not Second Aunt Hua, Big Brother, nor you... He was chasing Fourth Brother's wife from the beginning to the end. Tell me, who had the evil intention?"

"Sir, please stop talking nonsense. The eldest daughter of the Jin family is just a weak woman. How could she have such evil intentions?"

"Chen'er, be careful with your words!"

Pei Chen was still furious and wanted to scold Xiao Yinxiu several times, but because they were in his father's room, he could only throw his sleeves and swallow his dissatisfaction.

"Go ahead and take inventory early so you can make plans."

Pei Chen took the order and dragged Xiao Yinxiu, who was about to kowtow a few more times to beg for mercy. When they returned to the room, Pei Chen was furious. He called a few of his servants and grabbed Shuangyue and Aunt Chu and started fighting in the yard.

This is fatal!

Xiao Yinxiu was in a daze for a moment, and quickly stopped him, "My uncle asked you to come and take stock with me, but without saying a word, you pinned me and the two people in front of you and beat them. What's the meaning of this? Is this the reason why you don't want me to be your wife?"

Pei Chen raised his hand to push her away, staggered back several steps, and managed to keep his balance with the help of two maids.

Shuangyue and Aunt Chu, who were stuffed with cloth and pressed on the bench, felt dizzy and had no time to react before several burly men held them down.

Once I got on the tuan, I couldn't even say a word.

Tears streamed down his face, and he just raised his head and begged the Crown Prince's wife to save them both. Unfortunately, Pei Chen ignored him and asked the servant to close the gate early.

"I gave you respect, but you refused. You are in charge of the household affairs, and you have also been given the glory of the mansion. What have you done?"
