Chapter 32 Is the wedding night coming today?

Zhu Guangchang and Lady Xinming stopped at the same time.

Jiang Zhaoyue looked at Pei Siya who was standing at the screen door.

Pei Siya looks a bit like Pei Sijing, but she is less tough and more fragile. She is holding a bundle in her arms and looking over here.

"Siya." Zhu Guangchang was surprised.

"Fourth sister." Pei Sijing called.

Wang asked in confusion, "Siya, what are you doing here?"

Jiang Zhaoyue said, "Whatever you want to return, just return it."

Ever since Pei Siya saw Zhu Guangchang having a tryst with another woman, she made up her mind to break up with him.

But she didn't expect Zhu Guangchang to use his reputation as a threat and refuse to cancel the engagement.

She had no choice but to commit suicide.

At this time, the second sister-in-law, who was rumored to be "selfish, greedy, stupid, vicious, and hated by everyone", suddenly appeared and not only saved her life, but also went to Yuejing Tower to deal with Zhu Guangchang.

She was grateful and had the courage to live.

But she was worried that Zhu Guangchang and others would come to the Duke's Mansion and do something bad.

She came to return the items Zhu Guangchang had given her and wanted to help. Then she saw that her second sister-in-law was not "selfish, greedy, stupid, vicious, and hated by everyone", but bright, confident, decisive, and firm, and scolded Zhu Guangchang and Lady Xinming.

The whole person seems to be glowing, and is incredibly beautiful.

In addition to gratitude, she also felt warmth, touched, admiration and yearning in her heart. She looked straight at her second sister-in-law.

Just at this time, my second sister-in-law and others also discovered me.

Her mother and others were surprised by her appearance.

Only my second sister-in-law could tell at a glance that she was returning something.

She was amazed at her second sister-in-law's intelligence and didn't want to cause trouble for her. She walked into the hall, bowed to her mother and second sister-in-law, and then turned to Zhu Guangchang.

"Siya, you finally showed up." Zhu Guangchang was excited and affectionate.

Pei Siya walked towards Zhu Guangchang step by step: "Mr. Zhu, you and I are strangers from now on. Please be polite and don't call me by my maiden name anymore."

Zhu Guangchang's heart sank: "You want to cancel the engagement too?"

"Yes." Pei Siya said firmly.

Zhu Guangchang was suddenly annoyed and threatened in a low voice: "Aren't you afraid that I will expose the fact that we are together..."

"Haha." Pei Siya suddenly sneered.

Pei Siya has always been gentle and obedient, and very easy to control, so Zhu Guangchang insisted on meeting her in person.

Now seeing her eyes were slightly cold, without the tenderness she once had, as if she had become a different person, he suddenly felt uneasy.

Pei Siya said gently, "Mr. Zhu San, you can give it a try. If you tell it here, Second Sister-in-law will have your mouth smashed. If you tell it outside, not only will no one believe you, but the Zhenguo Mansion will also make you believe that the Mingbo Mansion will have no good days."

"you……"

"Hurry back to the mansion and see what the reputation of your Xinming Marquis's mansion has become." Pei Siya threw the bag in her hand hard at Zhu Guangchang.

Zhu Guangchang was caught off guard and took a few steps back.

"Guangchang." Lady Xinming stepped forward and supported Zhu Guangchang.

Pei Siya turned around and walked to Jiang Zhaoyue.

"Siya!" Zhu Guangchang called again.

"Mr. Zhu San, please respect yourself!" After saying these three words, Jiang Zhaoyue inexplicably thought of Pei Jingzhou's way of saying "please respect yourself" and kept strangers away, and couldn't help but imitate him: "If we hear you calling a girl by her maiden name like this again, we will never let it go. Come, kick them out."

Zhu Guangchang looked grim.

Lady Xinming turned to Wang: "Madam Guogong——"

"Madam, take care." Wang's meaning was very clear.

Lady Xinming knew her marriage was hopeless and was furious. However, she didn't dare to make a scene at the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion. She suppressed her anger and said to Zhu Guangchang, "Let's go."

"But mother..." Zhu Guangchang suffered a setback for the first time and was very unwilling.

"Let's go." Lady Xinming pulled Zhu Guangchang away.

Zhu Guangchang left the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion in shame, following Lady Xinming.

Pei Sijing said happily: "They left."

A faint smile also appeared in Pei Siya's eyes.

Jiang Zhaoyue was happy too.

However, the three of them noticed that something was wrong around them. When they turned around and saw Wang's unhappy expression, they immediately stopped smiling.

"How is Siya?" Wang asked.

Pei Siya replied: "Mother, my daughter is well now."

Wang asked in a serious tone, "Why didn't you tell me about this incident between you and Zhu Guangchang?"

Pei Siya whispered, "My daughter is afraid of her mother's punishment."

Wang raised her voice: "You almost made a big mistake!"

Pei Siya lowered her head and dared not say a word.

Wang looked at Jiang Zhaoyue again: "How about you? How are you?"

"Mother, my daughter-in-law is well now."

Wang immediately said, "So we can make trouble in Yuejing Tower, right?"

Jiang Zhaoyue said calmly, "Don't worry, mother. My daughter-in-law made the fuss anonymously."

Wang frowned: "Anonymous?"

Jiang Zhaoyue nodded: "That's right, we didn't reveal our names from beginning to end."

Wang was dissatisfied: "Don't they know they are from the Zhenguogong Mansion?"

"I was a bit rude." Jiang Zhaoyue said honestly: "Most people would think it was the servants of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion who made the trouble."

A bit rude?

Jiang Zhaoyue doesn't look like the daughter-in-law of a Duke's mansion at all!

Wang said angrily: "You——"

"Mother, my second sister-in-law is doing this for my daughter. If you want to punish someone, just punish my daughter." Pei Siya knelt on the ground with a plop and burst into tears.

This... Actually, it would be enough to just have a muddled chat with a mother like Wang, but Pei Siya... This girl really likes to be serious, no wonder she would do something extreme like committing suicide.

Jiang Zhaoyue suddenly didn't know how to persuade him.

Pei Sijing watched from the side.

Wang was about to say something, but when she saw Pei Siya kneeling and crying, she frowned and said helplessly, "You are so worried."

"Yes, mother is right." Pei Siya admitted.

Wang's eyes swept over Pei Siya and the other two: "But you must remember, you are the daughters and daughters-in-law of the Zhenguogong Mansion. Your every word and action represents the Zhenguogong Mansion. You must not lose the reputation of the Zhenguogong Mansion."

"Yes." Jiang Zhaoyue and the other two responded together.

Pei Siya and Pei Sijing have been very well-behaved since they were young. They have never done anything out of line and they didn't do anything wrong this time.

Wang didn't want to blame Jiang Zhaoyue, but she really wanted to teach him a lesson and suppress his wild nature.

But she couldn't find any reason to blame Jiang Zhaoyue, and Pei Jingzhou had talked so much last night about how mother-in-law and daughter-in-law should get along well and how a harmonious family brings prosperity. If she treated Jiang Zhaoyue casually, wouldn't it make things difficult for her son?

She thought it over again and again, and said, "Okay, get up. Be careful in what you do from now on."

Pei Sijing quickly pulled Pei Siya up.

Jiang Zhaoyue answered with them: "Yes."

"If you encounter any major events, report to me first."

"yes."

"Madam." Aunt Qi came back happily from outside: "Madam, the third young lady is back."

Wang's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Mother." Pei Siyan flew into the hall like a colorful butterfly.

"Si Yan." Wang smiled.

Pei Siyan immediately came to Wang's side, took her arm, and spent a while affectionately, expressing her longing for her. Turning around and seeing Jiang Zhaoyue, her smile faded, and she perfunctorily called out, "Second sister-in-law."

"Hello, third sister." Jiang Zhaoyue had met Pei Siyan at the tea ceremony and learned from Nanny Sun that Pei Siyan's biological mother died in childbirth and Pei Siyan had been raised by Wang since she was a child.

Although she was a concubine's daughter, she was raised by Wang herself, so she enjoyed the treatment of a legitimate daughter.

A few days ago, her uncle got promoted again, so she went to live with her grandfather for a few days and just came back today.

Pei Siyan moved away from Jiang Zhaoyue with disdain, and immediately became displeased when she saw Pei Siya: "Fourth sister, why are you crying again?"

Pei Sijing quickly handed her handkerchief to Pei Siya.

Pei Siya lowered her head and wiped her tears.

Seeing that Pei Siyan was about to talk about Pei Siya and Pei Sijing, Jiang Zhaoyue said, "Third sister has been out of the house for many days, and she must miss mother very much. We will not disturb her and let her talk to mother privately."

Pei Siyan ignored Jiang Zhaoyue.

Wang said, "You all should go back."

Jiang Zhaoyue took Pei Siya and Pei Sijing out of the main hall in the front yard and walked towards the backyard.

"Second sister-in-law, thank you." Pei Siya turned her head and said.

Jiang Zhaoyue smiled and said, "Okay, I accept."

Pei Siya thought Jiang Zhaoyue would say some polite words like many others, but she didn't expect Jiang Zhaoyue to accept it so directly.

All the regrets, guilt, etc. in her heart disappeared.

She felt more and more that her second sister-in-law was different from the rumors, and even... she was particularly likable. She said, "Second sister-in-law, I..."

Jiang Zhaoyue said directly, "It's not your fault that you met a heartless man. You were right to cut your losses in time. You didn't hurt anyone else by committing suicide, but you felt a little sorry for yourself."

Pei Siya felt warm in her heart when she heard this, and tears welled up in her eyes. She loved to cry, and her third sister and others especially hated her crying. Realizing that if she cried in front of Jiang Zhaoyue, she might make him dislike her, she wiped her tears in panic.

The more you wipe, the more tears you cry.

"Cry if you want to. It's okay and there's nothing to be ashamed of. After you feel better after crying, face the days ahead bravely." Jiang Zhaoyue said.

Pei Siya looked at Jiang Zhaoyue with tears in her eyes. Apart from her fifth sister, this was the first time she met such a warm and tolerant person.

She really couldn't control herself from crying out loud, and she started to hiccup after crying: "Second sister-in-law, I don't want to cry anymore, I want to stop, but I can't stop."

Jiang Zhaoyue and Pei Sijing couldn't help laughing.

Pei Siya also started crying, laughing and burping.

At this time, Wang and Pei Siyan came over here. The three of them hurried to the backyard and met Pei Heng who was holding the sepak ball.

Jiang Zhaoyue had no choice but to separate from Pei Siya and Pei Sijing and go to Linhuayuan with Pei Heng to play sepak takraw.

Even though they were not playing sepak takraw anymore, Pei Heng still stuck to her like a follower.

It was not until after dinner that Pei Heng finally left.

After Jiang Zhaoyue showered and changed his clothes, he collapsed on the bed.

When Pei Jingzhou came back, he saw Jiang Zhaoyue sleeping soundly in his bed. He called out helplessly, "Jiang Zhaoyue."

Jiang Zhaoyue didn't respond.

"Jiang Zhaoyue."

Jiang Zhaoyue still didn't respond.

Pei Jingzhou went into the bathroom to take a shower. When he came out, Jiang Zhaoyue was still sleeping soundly. He couldn't wake her up by calling or pushing her, so he had to bend over and pick her up, preparing to put her in bed.

Jiang Zhaoyue suddenly opened her eyes and looked straight at Pei Jingzhou.

Pei Jingzhou paused.

Jiang Zhaoyue asked in a muffled voice, "Second Master, are we going to have our wedding night today?"
