Gu Qinglian's tough attitude made the Pei family members frown, as if they were saying, "You, the Pei family, have to marry her whether you want to or not."
Pei Sui thought that this was not his home ground, so he had no intention of getting involved from beginning to end.
Later, when he heard Liu Lingyi's words that she wanted to "repay a favor", especially her words that "sold the pity" for Gu Ci, he just frowned, suppressed his displeasure in his heart and said nothing.
In fact, Liu Lingyi has hinted many times since Gu Ci came back. He has always felt that the Gu family are all smart people, and his attitude is enough to explain everything.
Unfortunately, he took it for granted.
His expression remained indifferent, and his eyes, as cold as knives, fell on Gu Qinglian, "Is this what your Gu family wants?"
Gu Qinglian was shocked by his look, and her originally arrogant and domineering attitude suddenly became weak.
But it only took a moment for her to become righteous again. However, before she could open her mouth, Gu's father's stern rebuke interrupted her.
"Qinglian, shut up! You have no right to speak here! Why do you want to get involved?!"
"dad?!"
Gu Qinglian looked at him in surprise and grievance.
Father Gu glared at her warningly. He could see the suspicion on the faces of the Pei Sui brothers.
Even Cui Xueheng, who had always liked Aci, frowned.
We can talk about this matter slowly. After all, the Gu family is in the right.
But after Gu Qinglian made such a fuss, it seemed that the Gu family was being unreasonable.
If what was right becomes what is wrong, the Gu family will only suffer!
What an idiot!!
You are over 30 years old, but you are still so stupid. It must be because of your family’s spoiling you!
Father Gu stood up and nodded apologetically, saying, "Aunt, Asui, I'm sorry. I didn't teach my daughter well. I'm sorry for offending you."
Mrs. Pei had a kind face and a smile in her cloudy eyes. She waved her hand and said, "Well, that's serious. Qinglian is a very honest child. She is worried about Ah Ci."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Liu Lingyi again and said kindly, "I know what you mean, Lingyi. Our two families have known each other for decades.
The marriage between Asui and Apci was arranged when the old man was still alive. They grew up together as childhood sweethearts and must have a good relationship, but in the end it was your Gu family that called off the marriage a few years ago.
Now that something like this has happened again, she saved Ayu. No matter how good our talk is, we still have to ask the parties involved what they think. How about this, we can discuss it after Aci wakes up, is that ok?"
The old lady's remarks expressed both approval of them and a reminder to the Gu family that the Pei family was also a victim when they broke off the engagement. This statement had the meaning of achieving a great result with little effort.
With just a few words, Gu Jia's thoughts were suppressed.
This is also telling the Gu family that they, the Pei family, are not the kind of people who will listen to whatever you say.
If such a thing as forced marriage were to be exposed, the Gu family would lose face, and of course, their Pei family would also be affected.
So there is no need to make a big deal out of it. It would be better to wait until Gu Ci wakes up, and also give the Pei family room to discuss and consider.
Father Gu knew that this old lady was not someone who could be easily fooled. Even though she was old and didn't care about things, she was actually smarter than anyone else.
The Pei brothers were not good at it either, but they were sharp and smart and would not be easily controlled by others. He did not intend to make a decision today.
He nodded and said, "Aunt is right, let's wait until Ah Ci wakes up and then discuss it."
After the greetings, the Pei family went back first.
Old Mrs. Pei's courtyard was in the fourth entrance. When the group stepped into the main hall, the servants served tea to everyone and then quietly left.
The old lady took two sips of tea, and the weariness on her face faded a little.
Pei Yu said, "Grandma, please go and have a rest first. We can talk about this later."
The old lady shook her head. “If you don’t explain clearly, I won’t be able to sleep.”
She looked at the second person on the left and said, "A Sui, tell me what you think. Are you willing to marry A Ci?"
