Chapter 368: Stand



Yu Tang said "Oh" in his heart.

Will the decision that Pei Tong is about to make make Pei Xuan and Pei Yan very unhappy?

Then why did Pei Tong still talk about this?

Keep silent. After today, everyone will know his decision.

Or, did he want to tell his two uncles face to face?

Yu Tang frowned.

If Pei Tong did this, wasn't he afraid that his two uncles would suspect that he was challenging the authority of their elders?

Yu Tang couldn't help but prick up his ears.

But before Pei Tong could speak, Gu Xi, who was not supposed to speak, spoke with a smile before Pei Tong, and continued Pei Xuan's words: "Second uncle is right. But there are only a few people as talented as father-in-law. If there is anything inconsiderate, please forgive me, uncles." After speaking, he turned his head and looked at Pei Tong, "If mother-in-law and uncle are coming to the capital, I will go back to Lin'an. After all, grandmother is old, second uncle is an official in Beijing, and third uncle also has important things to do. Although father-in-law has passed away, he still has two sons, you and uncle, and I should take care of him on his behalf. You are all busy in our family, so I will take your place to entertain old An and do my little bit."

As she spoke, her eyes were as cold as a sword.

Everyone in the room was stunned.

At this moment, every word she could say had a purpose.

What does "if my mother-in-law and uncle come to Beijing" mean?

Under what circumstances would the eldest wife come to the capital with Pei Fei?

That means the Yang family and the Pei family are going to get married!

As the daughter of the Yang family and the eldest daughter-in-law of the Pei family, the eldest wife must be present.

If the clan branch does not have sons and daughters of the right age, one must choose from other branches. This involves selection, dating... and a lot of thought, and it is still unknown whose son or daughter will be chosen.

The first wife will definitely show up as well.

Does Gu Xi mean that if the Yang family and the Pei family marry, she will leave the capital and return to Lin'an to serve the old An people?

Yu Tang looked at Gu Xi in surprise.

She...is she going to live her own life with Pei Tong - if Pei Tong chooses to help the Yang family.

Yu Tang looked towards Pei Yan.

There was still a lingering sense of surprise in Pei Yan's eyes.

Yu Tang coughed lightly and blinked.

Pei Yan was too familiar with Yu Tang's little movements. He shook his head at Yu Tang, signaling her to ignore it. He also sat there with his eyelids drooped, looking like he was deeply troubled and thinking about something.

Yu Tang also calmed down. When he looked at Pei Tong again, her face was flushed red.

It seemed that everyone understood what Gu Xi meant.

Pei Tong felt very embarrassed.

Didn't they reach an agreement before they came?

This is not like Gu Xi.

When she was in the Li family in her previous life, she always persuaded Li Duan first and then went to the Lin family to talk about this and that. The Lin family suffered many losses because of this, and Yu Tang also learned a lot of ways of doing things from Gu Xi.

It's impossible that she would lose these survival skills after being reborn.

Yu Tang suddenly realized that it was not that Gu Xi did not discuss with Pei Tong, but Pei Tong was unwilling to discuss with Gu Xi, so Gu Xi did not know Pei Tong's decision at all. That was why Gu Xi did not care and told Pei Tong his plan before she made a decision.

Isn't she afraid of offending Pei Tong by doing this?

Or maybe Gu Xi no longer cares about Pei Tong at all.

Yu Tang thought of Gu Xi's defensive posture when he was talking to Pei Yan yesterday, and it overlapped with the expression on Gu Xi's face in his previous life when he decided to deal with her and deal with Li Duan.

Yu Tang sighed secretly in his heart.

Gu Xi smiled and said, "Uncles and aunts, it's not that I don't want to help Atong, it's that I'm pregnant, and I think it's better for me to go back to Lin to take care of the baby."

She dropped another thunderous bomb, which blew everyone in the house to pieces.

The second wife was the first to come to her senses. She pulled Gu Xi's hand in surprise and said, "Is this true? This is great! We haven't had a child in many years. When did you know? What did the doctor say? Is there anything special you want to eat? Do you have any experienced maids around you? Do you want to write a letter to your parents? If you think it's troublesome, I'll give you two of the maids who took care of me before?"

She spoke one sentence after another, her heart filled with joy of welcoming a new baby.

Gu Xi glanced at Pei Tong and said softly, "I shouldn't have said this at this time. It hasn't even been three months. But I was so happy that I couldn't help it..."

Pei Tong's face had turned from red to white. Instead of showing any joy at becoming a father, he seemed a little shocked and disappointed.

Doesn't he know that Gu Xi is pregnant?

Yu Tang looked at Pei Yan again.

Pei Yan frowned, his face grim.

Although Pei Xuan was surprised, he felt the same as the Second Madam that this was a happy event. However, pregnancy was a woman's business, and as an uncle, he could not interfere. However, he still happily instructed the Second Madam: "My sister-in-law is still young and probably doesn't understand these things. You should take care of the eldest young lady. I will write a letter to Mom and see how she arranges it. Thank you for your hard work during this period!"

The second wife nodded repeatedly and said, "Don't worry, old man." Then she said happily, "It can be said that our family is now blessed with double happiness!"

Yu Tang was stunned and asked, "Any other happy event?"

The second wife said happily, "The Qin family has hired a matchmaker and will formally propose marriage tomorrow." She couldn't hide her smile, "I wanted to tell you this a long time ago, but you and the third elder went out. The Qin family came early this morning, and I also told A Dan, and A Dan agreed. This marriage is really a match made in heaven. Who would have thought that our two families had no dealings in Hangzhou, but became relatives when we arrived in Beijing. It's really a fate!"

Yu Tang kept saying "Congratulations".

The second old man said to the second wife: "Calm down! It's just a matter of marriage for our children. Look at you!"

For the first time, the Second Wife refuted the Second Elder in front of everyone: "I didn't say anything in front of outsiders! I'm just so happy. A'dan's marriage has always been a big deal in my mind. You know, girls are not like boys. Once they get married, they belong to someone else's family. If the son-in-law is not good and my daughter suffers, it will be useless even if I die a hundred times!" As she spoke, her eyes became red.

Yu Tang hurriedly comforted her: "This also depends on fate. Look, A Dan found a good marriage, which shows that A Dan is a blessed person. You don't have to worry."

"That's why I talk a little more!" said the second wife, "Don't laugh at me!"

"How could that be!" Gu Xi thought about what had happened during this period of time, then came to his senses and hurriedly congratulated the Second Wife.

For a while, everyone was happily talking about A Dan, forgetting about Pei Tong, and the atmosphere became very harmonious.

Yu Tang was a little depressed.

She got married before Gu Xi, and now that Gu Xi is about to become a mother, she has not made any move.

However, if Gu Xi's child is older than her child, Gu Xi's child will still have to respect her child as "Aunt" or "Uncle". Thinking about that scene, it's quite interesting.

She comforted herself and felt much better. Seeing that the Second Madam was still talking about the Fifth Miss's marriage, she was ready to say a few more words, but when she looked up, she saw Pei Yan coming in with a teapot and refilling her cup of tea.

Normally, he would have to have the fruit peeled before he eats it.

Yu Tang was puzzled.

Pei Yan had returned to his seat and casually placed the teapot on the tea table beside him.

Isn't he going to refill the tea for others?

As Yu Tang was thinking, he heard Pei Yan speak coldly, interrupting the second wife's joy: "It's been quite lively at home recently. Atong, what do you think? Just tell me! We'll talk about how to arrange things in the future later."

In other words, he asked Pei Tong to express his position quickly, and whether Gu Xi would return to Lin'an depended on what Pei Tong planned!

The topic returned to Pei Tong, and everyone else in the room fell silent.

Pei Tong looked at Gu Xi expressionlessly and whispered, "I will follow the arrangements of my two uncles. I am the younger generation, and I should not interfere in the affairs of the Yang family. My aunt came to our house to ask for help, and I have already spoken for her. Whether it can be accomplished should be decided by the elders in charge of the family."

This means that he will not help the Yang family!

Gu Xi was obviously relieved and looked at Pei Tong with a happy smile.

Pei Tong didn't look at her, but looked at his two uncles.

Pei Yan still looked cold, but Pei Xuan was relieved and said softly, "It's great that you think so. Atong, don't worry, the Yang family is your maternal family after all, we will not make things difficult for you."

Pei Tong trusted his second uncle very much. He stood up and bowed respectfully to Pei Xuan and Pei Yan.

The atmosphere is very solemn.

The second wife looked at him and said with a smile: "Ah Tong, get up quickly. If the family members don't have different opinions, live in harmony and work together, then there is nothing to be afraid of in this family."

Pei Tong smiled and replied "yes".

Everyone relaxed.

The second wife suggested: "The weather is nice tonight, let's go sit in the pavilion outside the courtyard!" Then she talked about A Dan's marriage, "When she got married, you, her eldest cousin, had to help carry her out of the house!"

It's rare to have such a harmonious atmosphere.

Pei Tong hurriedly agreed with a smile, and said, "Don't worry, Second Aunt. If Aunt is not sincere, I will never let him in."

Everyone burst into laughter.

Yu Tang also liked this kind of atmosphere and smiled. Only Pei Yan didn't say a word from beginning to end, with a tense face.

On the way back, she couldn't help but persuade Pei Yan: "I know Pei Tong's words still make you unhappy. However, Second Uncle and Second Sister-in-law are very happy, so don't be too depressed." She also sighed, "Second Uncle and Second Sister-in-law are really good-tempered. You don't seem to have any grudges. Having such a brother and sister-in-law is also a blessing for our previous life."

Who knew Pei Yan would snort coldly and answer the question irrelevantly: "Don't be sad, I don't think that Gu is really pregnant, maybe she is just trying to control Pei Tong. How could it be such a coincidence that we forced Pei Tong to make a choice and then she got pregnant. You are the only one who would believe it!"

Yu Tang thought of the refilled cup of tea.

Is he trying to comfort her?

She stopped and looked at Pei Yan's flawless profile, and her vision suddenly became a little blurry.
