This kind of denial of Gu Xi's ability made her tremble with anger.

What is the old lady of the Yang family?

If it was in the past, before she did not attend the wedding banquet of the Jiang family, she cared that the Yang family was Pei Tong’s foreign family, and the old man Yang was also the wine sacrifice of Guozilin. For the future of Pei Tong, she would endure it anyway. In this tone. But now, she can clearly feel that although the Yang family has good careers with both father and son, it is only a short-lived upstart in a family of officials such as Ren Zhang and Li. A regular second-rank official is either from a first-rank official, or several consecutive generations can produce a few officials above a regular fourth-rank.

The current Yang family is not enough to compete with aristocratic families like Zhang and Li, let alone challenge them.

What is she afraid of.

Gu Xi's face suddenly became cold, and she stood up and was about to leave: "If this is the case, then let's say goodbye!"

The female relatives of the Yang family were all stunned, or Mrs. Yang responded quickly, and hurriedly took Gu Xi's arm, pressing the anger in the bottom of her heart and said, "You kid, what's wrong with you as an elder? No? I think the Yang family is inferior to the Pei family, so I think the words of our old lady are too harsh? But the old lady is not too wrong, right? The two wives of the Pei family are not authentic, why don't they visit by themselves, Want you to be a guest? Do you know what the purpose of our Yang family invited them? What status are those accompanying guests? The old lady said that you are not sensible, and you are not convinced?"

Gu Xi has always been arrogant. After going to the Jiang family wedding banquet, she found that even if the Jiang family looked down on Pei’s family, she didn’t dare to put it on the bright side. Zhang and Li both valued her very much because she was the youngest grandmother of Pei’s family. Besides, she also has a sister-in-law from the Yin family. She feels that apart from her seniority, there is nothing inferior to Yu Tang's.

Mrs. Yang's words happened to hit her unhappiness during this period of time.

She immediately became vigilant and sneered: "My aunt's words are bad. The second aunt and the third aunt have already said that they can't come if there is something to do, but you have to host a banquet for them. They can't help it, so I am sent. I am here. Thinking about it, although the Fei family is powerful, the Yang family is my outside family after all, so why should I stand on the side of the Yang family. I never thought that in the eyes of my aunt, I was wrong. Am I not a person on either side? That being the case, what am I doing here! There are a lot of things at home waiting for me to go back!"

In that case, the two wives of the Pei family really went to the Fei family!

Mrs. Yang and Mrs. Yang exchanged glances. Mrs. Yang immediately smiled and said, "Knowing that you are filial and sensible, isn't your grandmother angry that your two wives are too shameless?"

Gu Xi didn’t know how many such occasions she encountered when she was in her family’s home. She took the opportunity to attack, showing a heartbroken look, and said, “I’m the one who you can’t talk about, catch me, a good-hearted visitor and take a knife. Zha. Can I feel better in my heart?"

The sister-in-law is not a good friend.

Mrs. Yang was disgusted in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face, and said, "You are also from the Yang family. What's the use of losing your temper if something like this happens now? Or sit down and discuss what to do?"

Mrs. Yang, who hadn't spoken much, saw her, and suddenly interrupted: "What can I do? Hurry up and tell those people not to come! She can't be the master of the house, so it's useless for us to tell her!"

Mrs. Yang seemed to be choked.

Gu Xi almost jumped up.

What do you mean?

Look down on her?

There are certain things in the Pei family that she really can't be the master of the house, but it is also impossible for the Yang family to discuss it here.

Gu Xi glanced at Mrs. Yang with a faint smile, and said, "I just said, I'm useless here. It's meaningless for my aunt to pull me like this!"

Mrs. Yang glared at Mrs. Yang Er, and did not let go of the hand holding Gu Xi's arm.

Mrs. Yang didn't open her face, she looked like "I did nothing wrong, I won't apologize."

Mrs. Yang Da showed a very headache.

Gu Xi was a little unsure whether the Yang family had really encountered something and asked Pei’s family, or the two were doing a show. When she heard Mrs. Yang slap the table, she yelled, "Okay! Don't do it." I've said it. I'm not dead yet, and it's not your turn to call the shots in this family!"

Both Mrs. Yang Da and Mrs. Yang lowered their heads, and Mrs. Yang even let go of the hand holding Gu Xi.

Only then did Gu Xi realize that Mrs. Yang Da's grasping was very hard, and her arm started to hurt a little.

She rubbed the place where she was caught.

Mrs. Yang looked tired, as if the spirit just now had been pulled off.

"Daughter-in-law Atong, sit down and talk." She said, "The eldest daughter-in-law stays, and the second daughter-in-law goes outside to guard. I have something to say."

Gu Xi was surprised.

The two wives of the Yang family agreed in unison, Mrs. Yang renewed tea for Mrs. Yang, and Mrs. Yang retired with the maid in the house.

Mrs. Yang took a sip of tea and saw Gu Xi sitting next to her. Then she said: "Since your words are up to this time, I won't hide it from you. We have so much trouble asking Pei's family. When the two wives came over, they did ask the Pei family. However, if they said, "There is a request", that is to give the Pei family's face, and the Pei family can refuse to agree, but the consequences of not agreeing, then the Pei family will have to weigh it. Up."

Gu Xi was shocked.

This is not a tone of desire, a bit like...threatening.

Could it be that the Yang family caught the Pei family for some reason?

Gu Xi is also a person who loses but does not lose. He doesn't show up on the face, but his ears have long been set up.

When Mrs. Yang saw her look like this, she knew that this was not without an idea.

She exchanged another look with Mrs. Yang.

Mrs. Yang nodded slightly to her mother-in-law.

If it weren't great, her aunt wouldn't marry and become the longest daughter-in-law.

At this point, Mrs. Yang can only be a dead horse doctor. She said: "After you go back, tell your third aunt that our family wants to kiss Pei's family and book another marriage. If she feels that the old An from Pei's family is unwilling, it is better to shirk it. She went to ask your third uncle. Others don't know, but our family knows. Who gave the two hundred thousand taels of silver that the third prince moved back in Jiangnan back then?"

Gu Xi is not an ignorant woman and child. Besides, because Gu Xi has no older women to teach, Gu Xi is afraid that she will suffer. Sometimes she will use the court affairs to compare her.

She knew about the lectures and the two hundred thousand taels of silver on the Buddha's Bathing Festival last year.

Did the Yang family's words allude to the Pei family's two hundred thousand taels of silver from the third prince?

Gu Xi suddenly panicked.

Two hundred thousand taels of silver is a trivial matter. Deeply speaking, it can be said that it was blackmailed by the third prince, but the problem is that the two hundred thousand taels of silver also involved the assassination of the second prince that year.

The emperor has never established a reserve. It stands to reason that it is either a prostitute or a long-term. There should be nothing wrong with the three princes. But the emperor always liked the three princes. Because of the three princes, he didn't let the second prince go to Tibet. There were rumors that the reason why the last chief assistant was appointed to the official position was related to the opposition to the emperor's abolition of the young.

If the Pei family is involved in this kind of storm, no matter how powerful it is, it will be useless!

In the whole world, could it be Wang Tu.

"What do you mean?" Gu Xi's voice was a little sharp, "Some things can be done, but some things can't be said. The Yang family and the Pei family are relatives by marriage!"

Mrs. Yang was very satisfied with Gu Xi's reaction, and said coldly: "I am so old, would I still make you a child? We want to treat Pei's family as in-laws, so the Pei family should treat us as in-laws. Otherwise, why should we advance and retreat with the Pei family and share the joys and sorrows. Okay, you can't make up your mind about these things. It's hard for you if I let you talk like this. But the two wives of the Pei family don't take our Yang family into consideration. We just want to talk to the two wives of the Pei family well, so we can only wrong you."

Gu Xi shook her head, feeling dazed in her heart, not knowing how to get home.

But when she got home, she found that Yu Tang and his second wife were not at home.

She was so angry that she inhaled, thinking that if this matter was true, what would she do? I don't know if Pei You is involved? Is it too late to draw a clear line between Long Fang and Pei's family at this time?

Gu Xi didn't care about changing clothes, so she got on the sedan chair again and went to Gu Chang's.

Gu Chang hasn't gotten a job yet, and her sister-in-law Yin is not at home.

She couldn't help asking Gu's grandma: "What did my sister-in-law do?"

"It is said that it is the host of Qin from the Ministry of Rites." The mother said with a smile, "Mrs. and Mrs. Yin, as well as the two wives of your family have passed by."

Didn't you say that Mrs. Fei is here?

Gu Xi was confused.

The mother said, "It's because Mrs. Fei is here! Mrs. Qin cleans the dust for Mrs. Fei, and the Qin family invited some wives to accompany her."

Is this what Yu Tang intended to send her to the Yang family?

Are you afraid that she will show off, or are you afraid that she will make more maidens?

Gu Xi waited like a trapped beast for nearly an hour, and finally waited for Gu Chaoyang.

She took her brother to the study, and quietly told her about it.

Gu Chaoyang couldn't conceal his expression in surprise, his mind turned quickly, and his mouth muttered to himself: "No wonder Pei Xiaguang came forward to clean up this matter? I thought he wanted to rise to power. I wish he didn't want others. Find out that this matter is related to the Pei family? This is really something that Pei You can do..."

Listening to my brother mentioning her dead father-in-law, Gu Xi's hair stood up and she hurriedly said, "Brother, this matter is really related to the Pei family? Is it related to my father-in-law? Is it possible that the Yang family is lying?"

Gu Chaoyang shook his head and said in deep thought: "I have heard about this a long time ago, but I didn't think deeply about it, especially when Pei You suddenly died of illness and Pei's family retired to Lin'an."

Having said that, the two brothers and sisters couldn't help looking at each other.

Pei Yan is a scheming man, and he has won the trust of Mrs. Zhang. No normal father would call such a son who might be in the cabinet to return to his hometown to keep his family business.

Or, this matter has nothing to do with Pei You, but with Pei Yan?

Both of them saw expressions in each other's eyes that the complex language could not describe.

"I have to talk to Pei Xiaguang about this matter." Gu Chang realized that he suddenly seemed to have grasped the handle of the Pei family. He felt a bit dry in his throat and his voice was hoarse. "If the Pei family is unlucky, our family will be too. Implicated."

Gu Chang regretted marrying his younger sister to Pei's house at this time.
