The cannon fodder original wife's bad story

During the meal, the couple continued to feel depressed.

Honeysuckle came in several times under the pretext of serving dishes and adding soup, and each time she squeezed her eyelids to make way for the young lady to break the silence and take the initiative to show her goodwill.

Song Guanzhou rolled his eyes for a few times before coughing a few times, "Silang——"

"you shut up!"

Pei An didn't even raise his head and was not polite at all.

Song Guanzhou shrugged and could only lower his head to eat. Pei An looked at the heartless Song Guanzhou and was so angry that his heart ached. He even asked him if he had ever had contact with Aru.

When the two of them were getting close, she asked such a spoiling question -

He was so angry that he bit Song Guanzhou's chest, leaving a big tooth mark. Song Guanzhou screamed in pain, attracting Rendong and two maids, who almost came over behind the screen. It was Pei An who shouted loudly and stopped everyone.

In this way, no matter how much warmth and tenderness there is, it will be blown away by the wind.

Pei An sorted out his clothes and left the inner room, and saw Ren Dong and several maids in the courtyard, staring at him with horrified eyes. Ren Dong even stepped forward to beg, "Young Madam is young and ignorant, please forgive me, Fourth Master."

"I don't know anything?"

He sneered, fearing that he knew too much.

"Only those two storybooks?" He must copy them all out. If he keeps these pornographic books circulating in the market, he might make Song Guanzhou even bolder.

Honeysuckle didn't know the cause and effect, and could only nod.

"Don't ever buy any more storybooks for the young lady in the future."

The tone was stern, and several maids were frightened and dared not speak. Song Guanzhou, on the other hand, put on his clothes, casually tied his hair, and came out, leaning against the round moon door, and said lazily, "Why are you so mean to them, Master Pei!"

As a result, Pei An completely ignored Song Guanzhou during the meal.

After finishing the meal, he stood up to leave. Song Guanzhou saw him to the door and suddenly said, "Alu, take good care of the fourth young master."

As soon as he finished speaking, Song Guanzhou could not help but burst out laughing. Pei An looked back feeling powerless. On the way back to Yanlaitang, A'ru was scolded by Pei An. He was completely confused and thought that he had not done anything wrong.

——You are in big trouble!

Pei An, who returned to Yanlaitang, had no intention of resting.

Thinking of Song Guanzhou from Shaohua Garden, the corners of his mouth curled up. In the past, he only knew that she was like an ordinary jealous woman, not like the Song family, but now she said something shocking...

He couldn't deny that the light in those eyes when she looked up and asked about his past made him quite happy.

Just as he was about to put out the candles and go to bed, Pei Hai came to ask for a meeting in person, "Fourth Young Master, the Duke wants to see you." Pei An straightened his clothes and followed Pei Hai out of Yanlai Hall, "Why did Uncle Hai come to see you in person?"

Pei Hai smiled while holding a lantern, "Not really. I was going to report to the master about the Qingming family sacrifice. Lin He, who is beside the master, said he would come to invite you, so I came here on the way."

As he spoke, he walked in front and looked at Pei An.

The two of them arrived at Zhengxian Pavilion. Aunt Fang just walked in. When she saw them, she greeted them and then went to the side room. Pei Jian was in the main room. Lin He came to greet him personally, "Fourth Young Master, Uncle Hai, please come this way."

Entering the main room, Pei Jian sat on the official hat chair, reading a book.

After they both greeted each other, he told them to sit down.

"Let's talk about the Qingming family sacrifice when your second brother comes. How have you and Guan Zhou been doing these days?"

The old father put down the book and looked at his four sons.

"Don't worry, father. Guan Zhou and I are fine."

Pei Jian snorted coldly, "Why did I hear that you still live in Yanlai Hall?"

Pei An lowered his head, his ears slightly red, "Don't worry, father, Guan Zhou is just not feeling well these days, so we will separate for now. When he gets better, I will definitely move back to Shaohua Garden."

"When a couple is of one mind, they can break metal. Guan Zhou's family is in decline, and he is stubborn, but it is not easy for a young couple to do this, and now they have suffered. You two should reflect on yourselves and stay together in the end. As for the romantic places, you are still young, so there is no need to rush at this moment."

Pei An stood up and listened to the instruction, "I will follow my father's instructions."

"Just sit down. Your second sister-in-law is in charge of the mansion now. Let Guanzhou take care of things more. As for your mother, she is devoted to Buddhism. Don't bother her unless it's necessary."

Pei An agreed.

Prince Pei Chen was outside seeking an audience, and Lin He led him in directly. Before he could even say his greetings, Pei Jian's face darkened, "Where have you been again? Now that you have inherited the position of the prince, you should be strict in your words and deeds. How can you set an example by flirting with women instead of doing your work?"

Pei Chen bowed and answered hesitantly, "Father was wronged, and I dared not do anything wrong."

"Humph!"

Pei Jian was full of anger, "Do you think I'm blind? I asked His Majesty for a position for you, but you think it's too low. I asked you to read more books to learn more about business, but it's still a mess. Look at you in and out of the house, you are only indulging in women. If this goes on for a long time, how can this Duke's Mansion survive?"

Pei Chen was scolded so hard that his legs were shaking and cold sweats were pouring out.

"Father, I understand."

"Forget it, sit down and talk about the Qingming family sacrifice."

Pei Hai said as usual, Pei Jian mentioned a few places, "Several branches in my hometown sent a message back, saying that they had separated their families and ancestors two years ago, and this year they each held sacrifices. It would be a lot of inconvenience to gather together and travel hundreds of kilometers back and forth."

Pei Hai wrote down, "For the sacrifice of cattle and sheep, I will send some back home."

Pei Jian nodded, "Pei Chen! You discuss this with Dahai, just be polite." After thinking for a while, he instructed Pei An, "There is no one at Guanzhou's mother's home. Since Shouan and his wife passed away, Xinglu has not been seen. There haven't been many people in Huaifeng in recent years. Find a time before Qingming Festival to take Guanzhou to Dao County to pay respects to your father-in-law and mother-in-law."

Song Wenqi, also known by his courtesy name Shou'an, is the father of Song Guanzhou.

Pei An stood up and said, "Father, we can offer sacrifices remotely in the capital—"

"Not appropriate!" Pei Jian interrupted the fourth son's suggestion, "Shou'an is not only your father-in-law and son-in-law, he was also your superior. Teacher, it is reasonable to offer sacrifices to him once a year."

In this case, Pei An had no choice but to agree.

After giving instructions to the others, he dismissed the three people. Just before leaving, Pei Jian kept Pei An and spoke to him alone, "In two years, I will find a chance to have you sent out of the capital. You are intelligent by nature, but the road to politics is long and bumpy, so you must be cautious at all times."

"My child understands."

After a brief silence between the father and son, Pei Jian looked at his outstanding fourth son and waved his hand, "Go back, you are a husband, be more open-minded, Guan Zhou is just a woman in the inner house, if you can't even control her, let alone the various officials in the officialdom."

Pei An was stunned, then sighed, "If she was as sensible as the eldest sister-in-law and polite as the second sister-in-law——"

"What do you mean, do all the people out there have to grow up the way you think? Do they have to act and speak according to your imagination, only then can you do anything?"

Pei An quickly bowed and apologized, "My son made a mistake, and I apologize for my mistake."

After a long time, Pei An was finally chased away. Pei An thought for a while and said in a low voice, "Third brother... I want to go again."

Pei Jian froze, as if he was recalling something, and he also felt regretful. His helplessness turned into a long sigh, "Forget it, it's good that you have the intention. He is like that now, and he will have to rely on you more in the future."

When Pei An heard this, he immediately knelt down.

"What my father said was not at all reliable. He is my elder brother. I only regret that I was not at home during those days. Otherwise, such a mistake would not have happened."

Pei Jian looked at his upright son and smiled with satisfaction, "As long as you have the intention, he will not rely on you for everything. But in my eyes, you will definitely do something in the future. That's it, we'll talk about it later."

Pei An looked up and saw helplessness in his father's gray hair.
