Chapter 383 Something unusual happened
Pei Shaorong didn't come alone. Madam Pei, the old lady, Pei Zhen, and several concubines also came. Aunt Zhao wanted to come, but Madam Pei stopped her with one sentence.
"That is the manor of the Empress's family. Aunt Zhao has been scolded by the Empress. How brave do you have to go to the manor of the Empress's family?" Is she
taking herself too seriously, or is she not taking the Empress seriously enough?
After this sentence came down, both Lord Pei and Madam Pei had to give up. It was already a magnanimity of her mother to bring Pei Zhen with her. Aunt Zhao also wanted to go, regardless of whether she was worthy or not! After
Pei Shaorong became the future Crown Princess, Madam Pei's attitude towards them was more restrained. But it was still the eyes that were not eyes, and the nose that was not a nose.
When they got to the vicinity of the manor, Pei Shaorong got off Xu Muhua's carriage and returned to Pei's carriage. The two teams headed for two different paths.
The two manors were close, but not together.
Back in the carriage, Madam Pei couldn't wait to ask, "How was it, what did you and Muhua talk about?"
"Mom, don't worry, there's nothing wrong between Muhua and me! We won't have a fight over an arranged marriage. And..."
Pei Shaorong blushed, a little shy, and said in a low voice, "Muhua said that she didn't have that kind of intention towards the prince, and she won't be with me in the future..."
Madam Pei breathed a sigh of relief at first, and then her eyes became complicated.
She believed that Muhua was speaking from the heart and was not deliberately deceiving Arong to let her let down her guard.
But after entering the East Palace, she had no choice. It was hard to say whether Mu Hua could keep her heart unchanged in the future.
Mrs. Pei was already this old, of course she was not as innocent as her daughter.
But she didn't say anything. After all, Mu Hua was a good child in every way and had a sincere heart. So she shouldn't be hostile to her because of the worry about what would happen in the future.
"Just know it in your heart. After all, you have to walk the road ahead by yourself. Your mother can't help you too much."
Mrs. Pei reached out and touched her daughter's head lovingly.
"Mom, don't worry about me, I will try my best. Besides, don't we have a younger brother?"
When talking about this son, Mrs. Pei couldn't help but smile and shook her head, "Your younger brother has been following your grandfather since he was a child. Now he is very young, but he is like a little old man, very depressed. I am a little worried about him!"
What Mrs. Pei said was true.
Master Pei knew that his son was a hopeless case, and the path that this legitimate grandson would take in the future was decided for him when he was born.
When he just learned to walk, Master Pei often held him on his lap and read to him. When he was older, it was even more amazing. Master Pei taught him to write and recite poems step by step, and explained the truth to him word by word. His attitude towards him was obvious, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was being trained as an heir.
He did not disappoint Master Pei's expectations. He was smart and clever, and the key was that he was born with a talent for studying. No matter what he learned, he could absorb it quickly, and he could apply it to other situations.
Master Pei was finally relieved, and felt that he would not have to worry about facing his ancestors a hundred years later. Although he
had an unfilial son, at least he still had a grandson who was presentable.
So Master Pei kept a close eye on this legitimate grandson, and Aunt Zhao had no chance to do anything.
This was also the reason why Madam Pei dared to hide in her own yard and be an invisible person for so many years.
But now thinking back, Madam Pei really wanted to slap herself. She also deeply doubted whether her past self had a brain injury, otherwise how could she have such a cowardly behavior, only caring about her own comfort and completely ignoring her two children.
"My younger brother said that he likes to study and doesn't like to do anything else. It's also my grandfather who has taken the trouble to teach my younger brother well."
Madam Pei nodded.
Her mother-in-law can be said to be the worst mother-in-law in the world, but her father-in-law can be said to be the best father-in-law in the world.
"This time it is also the Empress's intention to come out. Just enjoy it and don't worry about other things. The wedding day is very close..."
Madam Pei suddenly felt reluctant.
Speaking of the wedding, Pei Shaorong couldn't hide her shyness, and there was also a sense of expectation and longing in her eyes.
When they arrived at the manor, Madam Pei's carriage was in front and she got off the carriage first. But she didn't go in, but waited on the side.
Pei Shaorong was surprised to see her when she got out of the car.
This is really rare!
To be honest, she also felt it was a bit strange that the old lady insisted on coming with her.
She has never liked the two of them, mother and daughter. Now, due to her status as the future Crown Princess, she has restrained herself a little, but her eyes still reveal a strong dislike. If she
obviously doesn't like the two of them, why did she have to follow them this time? Was she worried that Pei Zhen would be bullied by the two of them?
Pei Shaorong always felt that the old lady's behavior this time was a little abnormal.
But now she hasn't done anything, and as a granddaughter, she can't say anything, so she can only wait and see.
"Why is it so slow! I am an old man, and the carriage goes very fast. But you young people are still young, and your bones are too soft."
Old Madam Pei couldn't help but say.
"Grandma is in good health, which is a blessing for everyone. We should all learn from her and take good care of ourselves in the future."
Pei Shaorong replied with a smile, pretending not to hear the strange tone in Mrs. Pei's voice.
Mrs. Pei's face froze, and she didn't know whether to laugh or not. She followed her words and said, "That's what I said, don't think it doesn't matter just because you are young. It's better to be a little cautious."
"Grandma is right."
Pei Shaorong still had a good-tempered look.
Mrs. Pei saw that she would not accept it and did not continue to pester her. She sighed, "After all, I am old. I feel sore all over after sitting in the carriage for a while. Zhen'er, come and help grandma go in to rest."
Pei Zhen walked over obediently and supported the old lady.
The old lady walked a few steps and turned back to stare at Madam Pei with her cloudy eyes, and asked: "Is this room arranged? I can't leave anyone by my side, so let Zhen'er live with me!"
Madam Pei sneered in her heart, and said respectfully, "Don't worry, mother, everything has been arranged. Since mother can't bear to leave the second young lady, let the second young lady serve you."
After that, she ordered the servants, "Take all the Second Miss's things and send them to the old lady's chamber."
Did the old man think that she would make things difficult for Pei Zhen at this time? Did he think she was the plaything of Aunt Zhao's little family? She
came to relax with her daughter, not to torture her concubine's daughter!
