Chapter 140 When have you ever been humiliated like this?
Although her voice was not loud, it was unquestionable and she spoke very firmly.
Pei Zhensheng and Xu Qinghe were both stunned.
Originally, they wanted Pei Zhiwan to hide, worried that she was young and had never seen the real patriarch of the family looking for trouble, and would be frightened by the harm done to innocent people. But their daughter asked them to hide, and they all suspected that they had heard it wrong. Pei Zhiwan shook his head
secretly when he saw this, and repeated it again: "Mom and Dad, you go upstairs, I'm a kid, it's easier for me to deal with it, how can they argue with me and lose their identity?"
[Hey, Mom and Dad, these are people who have been oppressed, they are already scared. 】
【Don't you know that the more you retreat against those fierce and evil spirits, the more they will push you further? Don't they always pick on the weak? Good people are often bullied, and good horses are often ridden. 】
【But if we rush into the battle now, we will definitely lose momentum. It's better to hide. After all, I am a junior. Let's see what they can do. 】
Pei Zhiwan secretly complained. Pei Zhensheng and Xu Qinghe listened to their daughter's voice. The two no longer hesitated, looked at each other hurriedly, got up and walked upstairs quickly.
Looking at their backs, Pei Zhiwan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Now her parents are really worry-free, especially cooperating with her.
It seems that blood is thicker than water, and it's the result of family affection.
She immediately instructed the servants at home to say that the master and the mistress were not at home and went out, and then went to open the door.
"It took you so long to open the door. The person must be dead."
Pei Zhiwan was scolded as soon as she opened the door a crack.
Her face changed immediately. When had she ever been scolded like this?
Even if he was a time traveler, even if he was an elder, so what?
How could someone scold someone right away?
Unexpectedly, before Pei Zhiwan could react, someone pushed her again.
Pei Zhiwan was completely unprepared. The person was very strong. She stood unsteadily and took several steps back before she could steady herself.
"It looks like they are all dead. Let a young girl open the door."
An old lady looked at Pei Zhiwan angrily and spit on the ground vigorously. She looked like she was going to eat someone.
The servants in the house and Pei Zhensheng and his wife upstairs were all dumbfounded. Wasn't this a robbery?
Pei Zhensheng saw that his daughter was almost pushed down, and was worried that she would suffer, so he turned and ran to the bedroom door.
Xu Qinghe hurriedly called him: "Zhensheng, don't worry, it's natural for our daughter to let us go upstairs, let's wait and see."
Pei Zhensheng thought it made sense, so as not to disrupt his daughter's plan by going out now, he had to stop abruptly, but subconsciously clenched his fists, gritted his teeth and snorted: "If they dare to let Zhiwan suffer, I dare to break off with them."
Xu Qinghe walked over and responded firmly: "I support you, since they don't regard us as their own family, why should we get entangled with them and let them be a soft persimmon!"
The couple made up their minds and continued to pay attention to the movements of their daughter and the old patriarch of the Pei family downstairs.
Besides, Pei Zhiwan in the courtyard, even though she wanted to slap the old lady in the face for being disrespectful, she still endured it. It is
the best policy to use courtesy first and force later, after all, she is the younger generation.
People in society have to be cautious.
"Don't be angry, our family just came here, and I just returned home, so it's normal that you don't recognize me. I am Pei Zhiwan, the daughter of Pei Zhensheng who has been missing for 18 years. You are the grandmother, right? Zhiwan greets you."
As she said this, she pretended to bow, just like the family members of the masters and wives in the past greeted each other.
But the wife of the old Pei family snorted disdainfully, with her nose turned up.
"You are the girl from the country, the ignorant wild girl? Didn't your parents hire a teacher to teach you the principles of life and work that you have been missing all these years, and just let you do whatever you want?!"
Pei Zhiwan knew that she must be thinking about what happened at the gambling convention at the resort. He couldn't help but smile and glanced at the group of people. Sure enough, his uncle Pei Decai was among them.
"Grandma, you are being so incomprehensible. I don't understand what you are saying. After all, we just met today."
"Wild girl, don't pretend to be ignorant. Don't think we don't know what you did at the gambling convention."
Old Mrs. Pei smiled coldly and glared at her fiercely, as if two knives were trying to cut Pei Zhiwan's pretty face. Her voice was also full of hostility, without any affection at all.
Pei Zhiwan's patience was almost worn out. She still pursed her lips and smiled, "I have not committed any crime, and I am not immoral. It is not your turn to lecture me like this. If you knew, you should praise my ability. Besides, this is the first time we meet, shouldn't you give me a red envelope?"
Mrs. Pei spat again and sneered, "I'll give you a slap, you uneducated wild girl, I can't talk to you. Where are your parents? Let them die and come to see me. They can't get away even if they pretend to be dead."
Pei Zhiwan was really angry this time. Did her parents let her scold them like this?
Even if she is the elder, she must have a legitimate reason!
But she still suppressed her anger and replied in a distant voice: "My parents are out and not at home. If you have anything to say, just tell me, and I will tell them the truth when they come back."
"Oh! That bastard Zhensheng actually learned to pretend to be dead with his wife, and let a wild country girl deal with it. I think you are tired of living!"
As she said that, Mrs. Pei raised her crutches and rushed into the main hall with an attitude of "I will beat anyone who stands in my way.
" Others followed closely behind, like a group of robbers who broke into the house.
Pei Zhiwan's face was calm at this time.
Since there is no family affection, she doesn't need to worry about it.
If she wants to develop in the imperial capital in the future, she must clarify her relationship with the Pei family before she can be at peace.
She waited until all the members of the Pei family entered the house before she went in.
At this time, Mrs. Pei called all the servants to her side and interrogated Pei Zhensheng and Xu Qinghe whether they were at home or not.
Pei Zhiwan suppressed his anger and stepped forward with a smile: "My parents are not shameful, why are they hiding? Now that our family has returned to the imperial capital, we will naturally stay here for a long time. Can we hide on the fifteenth day if we hide on the first day? They are really not at home. They left the house one step at a time and you came right after them. It's just such a coincidence."
"They didn't say where they were going when they went out, so there's no place to find them. My parents have a habit of not bringing their mobile phones when they go out for a walk at night. They just enjoy the sweet time alone as an old couple."
Old Mrs. Pei curled her lips when she heard this: "That brat Zhensheng married a daughter of a poor family, and his life was ruined, but he is still happy."
Pei Zhiwan couldn't help it anymore when she saw that she was scolding her grandmother's family for being poor again.
My grandmother's family is also middle-class, and their ancestors were once a wealthy family, but later their descendants were not good at business, so they fell into decline.
But a lean camel is bigger than a horse. Several uncles from my grandmother's family run several small companies of the Xu family. Although they are not rich, they live a comfortable life. The key is that the uncles' families are content with what they have. They are destined to have a good quality of life and harmonious family ties, and they are not obsessed with making money.
