Chapter 403 I still hope that he will have a promising future

Aunt Zhao knew that her daughter's marriage was handed over to Madam Pei and she couldn't accept it. However, she didn't make a fuss at the first time, but wanted to make sure whether this matter was true or false.

Lord Pei returned to the mansion and had dinner with Aunt Zhao. He heard her mention this matter at the dinner table and said indifferently: "She is the legitimate mother, and it is natural for her to handle Zhen'er's marriage."

Aunt Zhao choked and almost couldn't breathe!

So men are men, and they can't understand the difference at all!

Aunt Zhao frowned slightly, "Of course I understand this truth, but I'm worried... Madam has always misunderstood me, and also about Zhen'er... Zhen'er's marriage is handed over to Madam, I..."

This sentence was not finished, but the effect was better than saying it.

Lord Pei also thought of the grudge between his wife and concubine.

But he hesitated and did not promise anything at the first time as usual.

It was because the eldest son was accidentally injured two days ago, and the atmosphere in the mansion was very bad. If he went to her again for Zhen'er's matter at this time and asked her not to care about it, then...

Aunt Zhao knew this pillow man very well. As soon as she saw his expression, she knew what he was thinking and what he was worried about.

She gritted her teeth in her heart.

If she could give birth to a son, there would be no need for that woman's son in this mansion. It was a pity that her belly was silent after giving birth to a daughter. Could it be that God was really punishing her?

Although Aunt Zhao is not young anymore, she has taken good care of herself and has great means. It is easy for her to control Lord Pei.

Her eyes turned red, and her eye sockets quickly overflowed with tears. The big tears hung on her eyelashes, and they were about to fall. She looked pitiful, "I know that everyone in the mansion is in a bad mood recently because of Huaiyuan. The eldest lady's marriage is only a few days away. My Zhen'er is just a concubine's daughter... I am just worried..."

As she spoke, she turned her face to the side, exposing the half of her face with a small wound in front of Lord Pei.

On the day when Pei Huaiyuan was injured, the woman rushed back and slapped her without saying a word, scratching her face. There is still a small wound!

She didn't believe that the old man would not be soft-hearted when he saw it!

Sure enough! When Lord Pei saw the small wound on her face, he couldn't help but think of what happened a few days ago. The heart that was a little hesitant just now immediately became firm.

He looked at Aunt Zhao with heartache and scolded lightly: "What nonsense are you talking about, Zhen'er is also my daughter, and there is no difference between her and Arong and Huaiyuan! I will inquire about this matter, and she can't do whatever she wants! Zhen'er is also a lady of my Pei Mansion, and her marriage cannot be sloppy!"

"With me here, no one dares to bully you two!"

"Master!"

Aunt Zhao was moved and threw herself into his arms, hugging him tightly.

Lord Pei also embraced her with pity and kissed her on the forehead, "Don't worry, I will definitely find a good marriage for Zhen'er, which will not be worse than Arong's marriage."

Aunt Zhao's heart moved, a gleam of light flashed in her eyes, and a triumphant smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Aunt Zhao's gentleness and kindness made Lord Pei's mind hot, and he went directly to Mrs. Pei's room after dinner.

But it turned out to be empty! The servant said that the lady went to the yard of the young master.

When it came to Pei Huaiyuan, the legitimate son, Lord Pei's hot mind finally cooled down a little, and he wanted to retreat. But Aunt Zhao's pitiful face appeared in his mind again, and he gritted his teeth, turned around, and went to the legitimate son's yard.

In fact, he seldom comes to the courtyard of this legitimate son.

This child has been raised by his father since he was a child. Although he is his father, he has few opportunities to meet him, let alone cultivate any feelings. But no matter what, he is his legitimate son, and he can't help but love him.

He still hopes that this legitimate son will have a great future. In this way, he can become the support of other sisters and brothers in the mansion.

Pei Huaiyuan has no worries about his life, but he still suffered a lot.

Now he is lying on the bed with a pale face, which makes Mrs. Pei feel distressed and wish she could suffer this pain for him.

Pei Shaorong sat aside and whispered something. Pei Huaiyuan nodded gently from time to time, and his eyes were full of dependence on her sister.

Although Pei Huaiyuan was raised by Master Pei, he has a good relationship with his biological sister Pei Shaorong. At a young age, he was very clear about the situation of the two siblings in the Pei Mansion, so he studied harder.

The atmosphere between the three of them was originally very warm, but it was suddenly broken by the servant's report.

Master Pei walked in and paused, his heart was full of anger.

Is he their enemy? He had a sullen face when he came. He was her husband and their father! What kind of attitude is this!

Pei Shaorong stood up, "Dad."

"Why are you here?"

Madam Pei asked coldly. She only glanced at him and then retracted her gaze, as if looking at him any longer would hurt her eyes.

Lord Pei said unhappily, "I came to see what happened to Huaiyuan."

Madam Pei pulled the corner of her mouth, too lazy to bother with him.

"Father, I'm sorry that I can't get up to greet you."

Pei Huaiyuan said.

Looking at his pale face, Lord Pei still showed a little distress on his face, and asked, "How do you feel today? Are you better?"

"Thank you for your concern, I'm much better."

After a lot of back and forth, Lord Pei couldn't find a suitable topic to talk about for a while, so he could only ask a few dry questions, the same questions he asked when he was just injured!

Pei Huaiyuan just pretended to understand nothing and answered his questions obediently.

Madam Pei and Pei Shaorong didn't say anything on the side.

The conversation between the father and son was not like a conversation between father and son, but more like a routine inquiry between superiors and subordinates, so unfamiliar that there was no extra affection.

Lord Pei seemed to have noticed something, and he became more and more irritated. There was also a kind of suffocation and discomfort that he couldn't speak out.

They were obviously a family, why did he seem like an outsider!

He even forgot what Aunt Zhao was thinking about.

He couldn't stay for more than a cup of tea and was ready to leave.

Mrs. Pei stood up at this time, "Master, you are here just in time. I have something to discuss with you. It is about the second lady's marriage."

Master Pei stopped and looked at Mrs. Pei in surprise.

Seeing the surprise and astonishment in his eyes, Mrs. Pei sneered in her heart.

What, do you think she will do something in private and perfunctorily?

She is not that stupid.
