When Pei Laoan listened, his expression became a little stern.

She was silent for a long time before she said, "Whose daughter knows her husband's family well before getting married? Don't they all learn about it slowly after getting married?"

The daughter-in-law is still unknown, but the son has already made plans for her wholeheartedly.

She thought her little son was cold-hearted and different from his two brothers, but what happened? Not only was he exactly the same, but he became even more fierce, fearing that she would be wronged and wanted to teach her a lesson in advance.

How can such a thing be possible in this world?

Pei Laoan picked up the teacup at hand and took a sip. He felt that the tea was bitter and unpalatable. He frowned and said to Aunt Chen who was serving beside him, "Who brewed this tea? Although the weather is getting hotter, there is no point in drinking cold tea. Go and ask someone to change it."

Aunt Chen hurriedly took the teacup, quickly tested it with her fingers, and found that the temperature of the tea was just right. Knowing that Mr. Pei was unhappy because of Pei Yan's words, she hurriedly glanced at Pei Yan, not knowing whether Pei Yan understood what she meant. Then she lowered her head and smiled and nodded, then went back to make tea again.

Pei Yan knew that his mother was unhappy without Aunt Chen reminding him.

Logically speaking, his mother was not the unreasonable and stingy person, but this time she did something petty. He guessed that this was probably the shadow left by his two brothers, especially the eldest brother, who had caused a lot of trouble with his mother because of his eldest sister-in-law. He had sworn at that time that he would never let his mother worry again after he got married. He didn't expect that when it came to his turn, he still made his mother unhappy.

He squatted in front of his mother, holding her knees with both hands, looking up at her, and whispered: "The Yu family is of ordinary origin, and I am a strong person. I don't want others to laugh at me. I don't want anyone else to know about this except mother. Apart from mother, there is no one else I can trust. Please help me."

Pei Yan was a beautiful child since he was young, like a golden boy. When he was two or three years old, he was not even as tall as the table. When the old lady was scolding him behind the desk, he would refute the old lady's words with childish words. The way he tilted his head while talking was so cute. At that time, the old lady smiled and said to her, look at this sharp-tongued person, who knows whose daughter he will harm in the future. Later, when he was older, girls would tease him when he went out, either bringing back a bag of fresh fruits or a bag of candy. The old lady was afraid that he would use his beauty to commit crimes, so she became more and more strict with him. He was obedient and never flirted with other girls. When she saw that his elder brother was angry with her, she knew to give her a break and said with a sullen face that she would help her vent her anger...

In the blink of an eye, the child grew up and was about to get married and have children, but in front of his mother, he was still like a child. He was becoming more and more handsome, and still needed his mother's protection.

Pei Laoan's eyes suddenly became teary.

She gently stroked her son's smooth black hair and smiled softly, "Okay! Mommy will help you. Our third son has always been better than others in everything, so the wife he finds will definitely be better than others."

Pei Yan looked at this and breathed a sigh of relief.

He really didn't want to make his mother sad, and he didn't want there to be a rift between his mother and Yu Tang.

The idea of ​​asking his mother to give Yu Tang some advice was something he thought of after meeting Yu Wen today.

However, he seemed to have let Yu Tang accompany his mother very early on. Could it be that he had such concerns in his heart very early on?

These thoughts flashed through his mind, but were quickly put behind him. He jumped up, hugged his mother with a smile, and called her "Mom" in a coquettish manner.

So happy!

I wonder if it was because she agreed to his request or because she was willing to help his future daughter-in-law?

These thoughts flashed through Pei Laoan's mind, but were quickly suppressed by her. She smiled and said, "Let me help your future daughter-in-law get familiar with the situation at home as soon as possible. What are your plans?"

Pei Yan never did anything without certainty. Since he had such an idea, he must have a plan to implement it. But he was undoubtedly the smartest person. He immediately felt his mother's displeasure, so he simply turned the tables and handed the initiative to his mother.

"I just thought about it," he said. "I don't have a plan in mind as to what to do. Besides, I still need to see if you agree with this matter first."

After he finished speaking, he smiled at his mother somewhat embarrassedly, and then said, "Mom, no one is more familiar with the things in the inner house than you. What do you think we should do about this matter?" As he spoke, he added childishly, "Anyway, we can't let families like the Song family and the Wu family find any fault!"

This kid!

Pei Laoan's heart softened. She smiled and said, "Look at your competitive look. I wonder who you resemble? Your father and I are not that kind of people."

How could she let the Song family or the Wu family laugh at her son?

Mr. Pei thought for a moment and said to his son, "Don't worry about this matter. Leave it to me!"

Pei Yan said "hmm" happily, and without asking Pei Laoan what his plans were, he left happily.

Old Man Pei couldn't help shaking his head, and said to Aunt Chen who had just returned with a new cup of tea, "You say he's careless, he knows how to support Yu Shi. You say he's careful, but he just left Yu Shi to me and left!"

No one understands Pei Laoan's worries better than Aunt Chen.

She handed the tea to Mr. Pei with a smile, patted his shoulder with a smile, and said softly: "How could the Third Elder be such an impetuous person? You see, after he took over the Pei family, he arranged everything well. Isn't he doing this because he trusts you? He believes that you will help him, that you will arrange it well, and that you have your own plans. Speaking of which, the Third Elder is the one who is truly closest to you. He dares to say anything and asks you to help him with anything!"

The implication is that compared to the eldest master who was biased and credulous, he would ask about everything related to the eldest wife no matter how big or small, and compared to the second master who turned a deaf ear but never made any demands, the third master's approach was truly close.

Mr. Pei understood what Aunt Chen meant and nodded after thinking about it.

Soon, Pei Yan got the news.

He couldn't help but break into a cold sweat over his own cleverness.

Getting along between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law is really an art. It's okay for him to play a guest role occasionally, but he can't stand it if he does it every day. This matter can only be left to Yu Tang to figure out a solution herself.

I wish she had the ability to support his mother.

Yu Tang hasn't even gotten married yet, but he's already started to have headaches.

Compared to the turbulent Pei family, the Yu family seemed quite peaceful.

Yu Bo personally arranged the banquet and called Yu Yuan, preparing to thank Mr. Wu properly.

Yu Wen was dragged by Chen to change clothes. Chen couldn't help but complain to Yu Wen in a low voice: "Don't go too far! Mr. Pei treats you as an elder, so you should act like an elder. You sit there and don't move, but let Mr. Wu help you see the guests off. What kind of behavior is this? Aren't you afraid that Mr. Pei will laugh at our family behind our backs?"

"How dare he!" Yu Wen said with a thick neck, "Whose father-in-law doesn't treat his son-in-law like this? Isn't he my future son-in-law? What's wrong with me asking someone else to send him off for me?"

"You old stubborn one!" Chen couldn't persuade him and kept cursing angrily.

Yu Wenyang walked away, but when he arrived at the hall where Master Wu was being entertained, he immediately put on a smiling face and talked to Master Wu about Jiang Chao's cargo: "I don't know if it can arrive smoothly. If the girl's wedding date is set at the end of September, will she have enough time to buy her dowry?"

This means that all the profits gained from maritime trade will be given to the girl as a dowry.

Mr. Wu felt that Yu Wen was worthy of being an educated man, responsible and courageous. He disagreed, but after agreeing to the marriage, he was determined to give face to the girl. He was a person worth making friends with.

He raised his thumb and said, "If you are worried, why don't we go to Ningbo?"

The two of them whispered to each other about Yu Tang's dowry.

Yu Tang felt that this was unnecessary.

She was a girl from a certain family. No matter how much dowry she had, others knew it. She didn't need to tiptoe to be the eldest son. She advised her mother and her aunt who was busy with her: "Just marry your daughter like the neighbors. Others will only praise our family for what it is."

Chen and Wang refused to listen. Yu Tang intended to ask Xiang and Ma Xiuniang to persuade them. But Mrs. Chen, who was with Old Master Pei, suddenly came to visit and said politely to Chen and Wang, "The weather is getting hot. Old Master Pei wants to take the young ladies to the other courtyard to escape the heat. Miss Yu went with them last year. This year, Old Master Pei wants to invite Miss Yu to come with him. What do you two ladies think?"

The future mother-in-law invites them, and although they don’t know whether it is auspicious or unlucky, can the Yu family refuse?

Chen and Wang hurriedly responded respectfully, but after seeing Aunt Chen off, they began to worry, wondering what Mr. Pei meant.

Yu Tang couldn't bear to see the two elders worried, so he asked Shuang Tao to meet Aunt Ji in private.

Aunt Ji already knew about the Pei and Yu families, so she was naturally more enthusiastic towards Shuang Tao than before. She smiled and told Shuang Tao not to worry, that Old Pei really just wanted to invite Yu Tang to escape the summer heat, and she also promised that if anything happened to Yu Tang, she would definitely send someone to tell the Yu family immediately.

After receiving such a reply, Chen and Wang felt relieved and busied themselves helping Yu Tang pack his clothes. According to the time agreed with the Pei family, they sent Yu Tang to the Pei Mansion.

Yu Tang was in a very calm mood.

There is a huge gap between her and Pei Yan, and this gap cannot be made up by dowry or anything else. The only thing she can do is to manage her marriage with Pei Yan well after marrying into the Pei family, so that others can slowly recognize her good qualities.

When thinking about these, she couldn't help but think playfully that it didn't matter if others didn't recognize her good qualities. It was enough for Pei Yan and Pei Laoan to think she was good.

When she was in the Li family in her previous life, she wanted to please this and that, but in the end no one bought into her. When she and the Li family stood on opposite sides, she couldn't please anyone anymore. People thought she was not easy to mess with, so they didn't want to mess with her or offend her, and instead were polite to her.

What she failed to do in her kindness, she accomplished with a straight face.

Yu Tang went to greet Mr. Pei with a smile as he did before.

Old Pei looked no different from usual. He asked about the health of her elders and what she had been doing these days, then served her some tea and asked her to go and play with the young ladies of the Pei family. "They were very happy to hear that you were going to go up the mountain with us this year like last year, and they kept asking when you would come!"
