Delicate Flower

Chapter 231: Strong words

Gu Xi knew that her elder brother wanted her to marry Pei's family, but her elder brother wanted her to marry Pei Yan, who has real power, rather than Pei Tong, who has the title of eldest grandson.

But she changed her mind after contacting Pei Yan.

Rather than being a married couple with Pei Yan for the rest of their lives, it is better to marry Pei Tong, who is begging for her.

This is what she said to Gu Chang. But in fact, she faintly felt that Pei Yan was not so easy to manipulate, at least in her sense, Pei Yan treated her nothing special, she looked like a stranger in her eyes, even more than seeing a stranger. Indifferent, with a bit of disdain and contempt, as if she could see through her thoughts and know her plans at a glance, which made her feel uneasy and scared at the same time.

In particular, Pei Yan was so handsome, so handsome that she was uncomfortable when she was born as a woman.

She felt that she didn't have any advantage in front of Pei Yan, and she was a little afraid of Pei Yan.

This is completely different from the feeling that Pei Tong gave her.

Pei Tong is also very handsome, not inferior to Li Duan, and a bit better than Li Duan in temperament. The most important thing is that he treats others gently and politely, humble and humorous, frank and sincere, and his eyes are extremely soft when he sees her, which gives her instant confidence in front of him, and is the special confidence of being a woman.

Compared with Pei Yan, she prefers Pei Tong.

Even if the Pei family is now in charge of Pei Yan.

If Pei Yan cannot be used by her, what does Pei Yan have to do with her even if he is in power? What benefit can she get from Pei Yan?

After understanding this, she chose Pei Tong without hesitation.

That's why she deliberately brought up the Li family's affairs, and she also thoughtfully said: "Brother, do you think my wife is looking for someone for me?!"

Gu Chang was guilty of not speaking.

Gu Xi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Her goal was achieved.

As long as Brother feels a little guilty of her, she violated Brother's meaning and betrothed to Pei Tong. Brother not only does not pursue her, but also defends her.

She hurriedly said: "Brother, we don't mention the previous things anymore. What did Master Pei San say about Master Pei's study in Hangzhou?"

Gu Chang is also having a headache for this matter.

In his opinion, unless Pei Tong has no talent for studying and relies solely on hard work, even if Pei Yan wants to prevent Pei Tong from getting out, he will be suppressed for a few years at most, and it is impossible to suppress Pei Tong forever. That being the case, why not sell Pei Tong as a favor and simply let him go to Hangzhou to study. Moreover, their family is not like the Yang family. The Yang family has no background and is more irritable. When holding a Pei family elder Pei You, he is reluctant to let go. The Pei family's network resources are used by their Yang family, and the Pei family is naturally disgusted.

Their family is a family heirloom who has cultivated and studied for generations. It is based on the idea that helping in-laws is to form good bonds and benefit future generations. I don't know how many relatives and friends who have a gift for reading have been instructed. Of course, he is also selfish. If Pei Tong accepts the favor of the Gu family, he will definitely have to take a high look at Gu Xi after getting married, which will be good for Gu Xi's future husband and wife life.

This is also the reason why he agreed to help her talk about items when he heard Gu Xi's words.

At this time, when Gu Xi mentioned it again, he smiled bitterly and said: "Pei Xiaguang did not agree. According to him, where to study depends on Pei Tong's own will. If Pei Tong goes out to school by accident, let Pei Tong follow him. Go ahead."

Gu Xi was taken aback, and said: "Did Young Master Pei talk to Master Pei San?"

The siblings looked at each other.

Gu Chang immediately stood up and said, "This is not right-if Pei Tong is as good as you said, how could he not be willing to take responsibility for this matter, and instead let you who have not officially married him? The woman comes forward. Axi, you have to consider this marriage again."

Gu Xi was obviously aware of it, but she still had a fluke and said, "Then I will ask him. Brother, don't be so nervous, maybe something happened in this that we don't know?"

The two parties have exchanged Geng posts and closed the eight characters, and they are almost officially hired. The marriage has been settled. If it is this time to regret the marriage... Gu Xi has already regretted the marriage... The situation is very unfavorable for Gu Xi.

Gu Chang said with a sullen face: "Don't worry about this for now. I still have important matters to discuss with Pei Xiaguang in the evening. After I see him, I will take some time to talk to him about this matter. If it's Mrs. Pei. When you ask, you just say you don’t know, you have already handed everything over to me."

After all, the eldest wife is Gu Xi's future mother-in-law, and Gu Xi certainly didn't dare to offend her clearly.

Gu Xi nodded.

Gu Chang said again: "Did the eldest wife come here this time? Where are Pei Tong and Pei Fei? Have they come?"

The old lady who lives as a widow should not attend such gatherings. But firstly, it was a temple and a place for worshipping the Buddha. Secondly, it was hosted by the Pei family. She came out as the clan chief's daughter-in-law to help Pei Laoan entertain guests.

Gu Xi said: "The eldest wife, the eldest son, and the second son are all here. But the eldest wife is happy and only saw me."

Gu Chang heard something and asked her: "Have you met the eldest son of the Pei family and the second son?"

Although he was asking Gu Xi, his tone was quite positive.

Gu Xi flushed, and said in a low voice, "I've met Old Master Pei before Daddy agreed to the marriage of Pei's family. He, others are pretty good, and told me that he had been with Yang's cousin since childhood. It is a pity that her cousin Fu Qian died of a sudden illness."

Pei Tong also confessed to her that he still thought in his heart that his cousin treated him well, but from the moment he decided to marry her, he would only put his cousin in his heart and treat his future wife well. child. Because his future wife and children are right, he should not bear his feelings for his cousin.

This makes Gu Xi feel that Pei Tong treats others with an extraordinarily sincere manner.

Gu Chang is a smart person, and he can guess Pei Tong's attitude towards his sister.

He looked obscure.

The eldest son of the Pei family, whom he had never met, was obviously not a vegetarian either. If this person is not his brother-in-law, he will give high-five praise, but this person is his brother-in-law, and his requirements are different.

Gu Chang was very uncomfortable listening.

He looked up at his sister's full face of satisfaction and a trace of relief flashing through his eyes, knowing that it was too late to say anything, his sister probably fell in love with Pei Tong.

The relationship between husband and wife is like a game, whoever pays more will lose!

Gu Chang couldn't help reminding his sister: "Be careful, he is using you!"

Gu Xi was very confident, and her eyes flashed: "Being able to be used by others means value. He uses me, so why am I not using him. It's just a better way than anyone else. Master Pei is now." There is too little to win. If he is willing to pretend to be affectionate in front of the Yang family, of course it is better for him. Maybe I can still make friends with the Yang family’s female family!"

This is true.

Gu Chang was afraid that Gu Xi would really have a relationship with his children at that time.

Gu Xi said, "Brother, I can't rely on you forever. Just try to let me go for a while? If it doesn't work, it won't be too late for you to support me."

Gu Chang thought for a while, and felt that his sister's words were not unreasonable.

As long as Gu Xi becomes the Pei family's daughter-in-law, even if the couple turns against each other, Gu Xi is also the Pei family's daughter-in-law, maybe because of this, Gu Xi has the value of being used by Pei Yan, and it is not necessarily when Pei Yan takes shelter.

"Okay!" Gu Chang finally decided to let his sister go for a while, "Don't put too much pressure on you, if it doesn't work, there is brother!"

Gu Xi smiled gratefully at her brother.

If there is no brother, how can she have so much courage to give it a try?

She didn't want to talk about it anymore, she changed the subject and asked about something she was very concerned about: "I'm going to be out of the cabinet, hasn't the brother chosen a good sister-in-law?"

When Gu Chang listened, the woman in a honey-colored shirt he met on the corridor immediately appeared in his mind.

If she is a girl from Song and Wu, it will be fine.

A man who is based in the world cannot rely solely on others, but he cannot rely solely on himself.

Although the Song family is now defeated, and the Wu family is snobbish, they are somehow in-laws who can barely get it.

Gu Chang felt enthusiastic in his heart, and the corners of his mouth curled up when he was unaware of it, and said, "Brother brother has his own ideas, and you can manage your own affairs." After he finished speaking, he suddenly felt like sitting on pins and needles. He felt that this small wing room was so stuffy and squeezed that he couldn’t stay in it for a quarter of an hour. Others moved as they pleased and said, "Brother, let’s go. You stay in the wing room. I am full of energy, and I will accompany Pei Lao'an to attend the lecture tomorrow. This is the first time you have appeared in front of everyone with the family members of Pei’s family. There will definitely be a lot of people paying attention to you, so you have to pay more attention."

Gu Xi also needs to prepare the clothes and accessories to attend the lecture tomorrow. In addition, it is late. Even though they are brothers and sisters, there are differences between men and women. She didn't leave Gu Chang too much, and personally escorted Gu Chang to the gate and stood under the eaves. When Gu Chang's figure disappeared outside the courtyard wall, she turned back to her wing.

As soon as Gu Chang left his sister's residence, he couldn't wait to ask Gao Sheng, "Have you found the person I asked you to check?"

"I only know that it was with the Pei family's wife who came to listen to the lecture." Gao Sheng said guiltily, "hasn't found out which house and room the lady is?"

Gu Chang gave a disappointed "Oh" and ordered Gao Sheng to continue the investigation, but he didn't know that Gao Sheng, like him, had gotten the wrong direction. He thoughtfully went to check with several family ladies who worshipped the Buddha, and he ignored Yu Tang perhaps. She was just an ordinary girl, but someone who followed the Pei family's wife.

On the Song family and Miss Peng family's side, they quickly found out the details of Yu Tang.

Miss Song Liu opened her eyes wide, and asked in disbelief, "Is it really just a lady from an ordinary talented family? Then why does the Pei family treat her like this? And Miss Xu, who is the most tricky, also has **** with her. Okay. Could it be that we made a mistake."

Cha Yutang is from the Peng family.

Ms. Peng was immediately upset, and said, "How could I make a mistake? This is what I asked our eleventh brother to check. Only when our family has important issues, we only have to move the eleventh brother."

This time, if the Peng family hadn't planned to marry the Pei family, they would still ask Peng Xi.
