"Mom, I'm not wrong. Third Aunt is responsible for this. She deserves it! I was just trying to scare her a little, but in her panic, she forgot about the trap she'd set and stepped on it. It's no wonder she fell!"
Li Miaomiao seemed to sense something strange when she heard this: "You said Chen Xuexiang set this trap herself. Why?"
Li Miaomiao reacted after she said this.
"Since Chen Xuexiang set a trap, who is she trying to frame?"
Li Miaomiao didn't know that someone with Chen Xuexiang's personality could actually do such a thing, and that she actually had enemies.
Pei Guoan also thought of what Li Miaomiao could think of, but he was no longer as angry as before.
"Mom, who do you think Third Aunt set the trap for? The trap was on the road you had to take to get to the factory. Third Aunt watched silently, but she's actually not much better than my aunt. Seeing that you're living a good life, Third Aunt is jealous."
"Is this true?"
Pei Guoan really didn't expect that Chen Xuexiang had such a bad mind. It was obvious that Li Miaomiao had been very loyal to the third room. Even when the family was divided before, it was Li Miaomiao who helped the third room, so that the third room could get more things. He heard all this from everyone after he came back. What kind of grudge did Chen Xuexiang have that she actually wanted to deal with his wife?
Just out of jealousy?
"Of course it's true, Dad. Aren't you very capable? You can check it out and you'll know if what I said is true. I just wanted to scare Third Aunt, but she wasn't frightened at all. Maybe she did something shameful that no one else knew about, and she panicked and fell into the trap she set. If she hadn't been so panicked, Third Aunt would never have taken this route home since she set the trap."
Pei Yifan said this and looked at Li Miaomiao again: "Mom, don't help the Third House anymore. You helped them so much before, but Third Aunt only wanted to harm you. I'm giving you this small punishment out of consideration for Third Uncle and Daya and Erya. I will definitely not admit my mistake to Third Aunt."
After knowing the whole story, Pei Guoan never asked Pei Yifan to admit his mistake.
If Chen Xuexiang really planned to harm his wife, he would be too busy finding someone to settle the score with her, so how could he possibly let his son apologize?
"I will naturally investigate what you said, but there is one more thing. How do you know that the trap set by your Third Aunt is to harm your mother and not others? Your Third Aunt cannot tell you this on her own initiative."
Pei Guoan did not miss the flaw in Pei Yifan's words.
Pei Yifan felt a little proud when he heard this: "That's easy. Pei Hao is a greedy person. I gave him some delicious food and tricked him into revealing the secret. Third Aunt doesn't even trust Daya and Erya, but she's completely defenseless against her own son. Pei Hao heard her mumbling to herself."
Pei Guoan's face darkened, but it wasn't because of Pei Yifan.
"Whether this is the case or not, I will naturally find out. If I really have wronged you, I will apologize to you."
Wrong is wrong, Pei Guoan is not the kind of person who refuses to admit his mistakes just to save face.
"I just hope that next time before you take action, Dad, you'll first find out what the truth is. Third Aunt didn't even know what she did. Before the family split up, my aunt often picked on Mom, and it was Third Aunt who deliberately said things behind her back that led to misunderstandings."
"The third brother has bad taste, marrying such a woman."
Pei Guoan said this and looked at Li Miaomiao: "Don't worry, I will find the third brother to settle the score no matter what. Since it was his wife who did something wrong, I will put it on his head."
Pei Guoan was about to go find Pei Guosheng when he was stopped by Li Miaomiao.
"Even if you want to go find the third brother, you should consider what day it is today. It's New Year's Eve. Are you going to go and pick a fight with the two brothers?"
Pei Guoan said that he was venting his anger for his wife and didn't care when it happened.
"Even if you don't care what the third brother thinks, at least consider your parents. If they knew that you two brothers had a quarrel and even fought on New Year's Eve, they would be worried and would definitely feel uncomfortable."
After Li Miaomiao said this, Pei Guoan hesitated for a moment before stopping.
"Alright, even if you need to vent your anger for me, there's no need to rush. Besides, I'd rather settle with you than go after the Third Brother!"
Li Miaomiao said this, sneering at Pei Guoan: "On New Year's Eve, you beat my son like this. Not to mention that he didn't do anything wrong, even if he did, you couldn't explain it to him properly. You came back and caught him and hit him? If I wasn't at home, would you not even listen to his explanation and let him go to the third room to admit his mistake?"
Pei Guoan knew he was in the wrong and was really angry. Besides, this matter was not unrelated to Pei Yifan.
It’s just that Pei Yifan’s starting point was for Li Miaomiao. He used to think that Pei Yifan was too cruel, but now he knows that his son still has some sense of propriety. In this matter, he really can’t say that his son was wrong.
Protecting your mother is what a man should do and take responsibility for.
"Xiao Fan, Dad knows he was wrong. Dad was just too surprised to hear such a thing. I was worried that you would go astray, so I was a little anxious. Can you forgive Dad this time?"
Pei Yifan heard this but did not nod
"Dad, you can't hurt others unscrupulously under the guise of being kind, even if I'm your son. If you blame me without any reason next time, I'd rather you never come back. After all, Mom and I went through the hardest times together."
Pei Yifan was not distressed, but acted like an adult, thinking seriously and expressing his thoughts, which made Pei Guoan more aware that he did not understand his son well enough.
All the things he thought he knew before were just what his son was willing to reveal in front of him.
Especially when he heard the last sentence, Pei Guoan felt heartbroken.
What kind of experience did my son have to have such a mature mind and say such words?
"Okay, I'll remember this. From now on, no matter what happens, I will first find out the truth and won't act so impulsively. But I also hope you can promise me that you will have a bottom line in everything you do in the future, and tell me the whole story as soon as possible so that we can better protect you. Some things that you can't solve may be just a simple matter for us."
"It's a deal!"
Pei Yifan nodded decisively, without dwelling on the past.
Li Miaomiao thought Pei Yifan would be angry for a while. After all, the beating was unfair, and her son was a vengeful and cruel person. She didn't expect her son to let the matter go so easily and calmly.
Seeing that the father and son had reconciled, Li Miaomiao felt a little relieved. Since even her son didn't care, she couldn't keep harping on the matter. Pei Guoan was just cunning.
