Aunt Pei begged her not to provoke Pei Yanli again.
Aunt Pei's hands were still warm, holding her cold hands, bringing a touch of warmth. She still had a kind smile on her face, and her tone of voice was still gentle when she spoke to her.
But, it's different now.
Her beautiful dream was like colorful bubbles that had risen high into the sky, but it was too fragile. When it touched the small grains of sand blown by the wind, it shattered into pieces with a "bang".
Li Sisi's eyes were filled with tears, and she spoke with difficulty: "Auntie, if the censor agrees to my marriage with Pei Yanli, will you still accept me?"
Aunt Pei was stunned by her question, and the gentle smile on her face froze.
He looked at her with complicated eyes: "Sisi, I see that the censor is very fond of you. Besides, what man would be willing to give his wife to someone else? You should talk to him properly. If the misunderstanding is resolved, everyone will be happy, right?"
"Besides, you still have family in the capital, right? You can't be so angry that you even abandon the family that gave birth to you and raised you, right?"
Li Sisi opened her mouth, but didn't know how to refute.
She couldn't say that it wasn't her family.
The family she wants is like Aunt Pei, ordinary but real, simple and warm.
But, no more.
Li Nian listened to their conversation and looked at Li Sisi's dazed look, feeling uncomfortable.
She walked towards the two of them and pulled Li Sisi's hand out of Aunt Pei's.
The corners of his lips curved into a faint smile as he said, "Auntie, we understand what you mean. We will handle this matter properly."
Aunt Pei smiled awkwardly: "Okay, I'll stop here. To be honest, since you two sisters came to Dong'an City, I have always treated you as my own daughters. I have always hoped that Sisi could be my daughter-in-law, but I didn't know you were in such a situation!"
"Sisi, I know you're a good girl. Yanli is determined to marry you, but our family doesn't have that kind of luck. I hope you can think about me and help me persuade that stubborn Yanli."
Before Li Sisi could speak, Li Nian spoke up for her and said, "Okay, we'll talk to Brother Pei."
"Miss Sisi, the second young master is here." Xiaobai's voice sounded.
All three of them were stunned.
Aunt Pei didn't realize who the second young master Xiaobai was talking about. When she saw Xiao Yunchen, dressed in an official robe, walking slowly towards her, she suddenly understood.
Aunt Pei felt guilty when she thought that her own son was actually trying to steal the wife of this noble man.
She lowered her head and bowed respectfully to Xiao Yunchen. After receiving a response, she bowed again and said goodbye.
