Chapter 9 The Daughter of the Duke’s Mansion
"Ah!" The maids screamed and fell at the gate of Xu's house.
Xu Qingyue and Pei Jingyuan just happened to chase out from inside, and seeing this scene, Xu Qingyue couldn't help but frown.
"Brother, calm down first. No one expected what happened today. Who would have thought that there would be such a mean servant in the Xu Mansion? My father-in-law and others have already dealt with her. I believe no one will dare to treat your sister-in-law like this again." Pei Jingyuan immediately stepped forward to comfort him.
Pei Jingchuan's face was cold at the moment, and he whispered: "Go back home!"
After saying this, he pulled down the curtain of the carriage, and the coachman drove away.
Pei Jingyuan stood behind with a grim expression. He knew that Pei Jingchuan was really angry this time. Then he looked at the maids who were kicked aside and felt annoyed. He sighed, it seemed that this move would not work.
Originally, he thought that these two maids were the dowry maids given to Xu Qingyan by the Xu Mansion. If Xu Qingyan couldn't give birth to a child, he would just raise these two maids to be his concubines. But now, looking at the situation, they might have been driven out of the Duke's Mansion by Pei Jingchuan.
"Husband, we specially placed Yingqiu and Chuntao with Xu Qingyan, and they must not be left in the Xu Mansion. Let's take them back." Xu Qingyue said from the side.
"Don't you see that Pei Jingchuan is like this? What's the point of taking them back?" Pei Jingyuan said impatiently.
Xu Qingyue's eyes turned red when she heard this, and she said angrily: "Why are you yelling at me so loudly? This is the maid that the Xu family gave to Xu Qingyan as a dowry. How can she get rid of her just because she says she doesn't want her? Unless she is no longer a daughter of the Xu family, there is no reason to drive this dowry maid away. It was clearly Nanny Wang who made the mistake today, not them! I will send her back right away!"
After saying that, she ignored Pei Jingyuan and asked Ying Qiu and Chun Tao to go with her. She would never let Xu Qingyan have an easy life!
After returning to the Duke's Mansion, Pei Jingchuan immediately arranged for two maids to serve Xu Qingyan, and handed the two people's indentures to her.
"Let these two take care of you from now on. If they don't serve you well, you can deal with them as you please." Pei Jingchuan handed the maid's contract to Xu Qingyan and said seriously.
Xu Qingyan looked at Pei Jingchuan's actions and couldn't help showing a touch of emotion on her face. She smiled and said, "Thank you, young master!"
From now on, she no longer has to worry about her actions being told to Xu Qingyue and the others.
As soon as Xu Qingyue returned to the Duke's Mansion, she immediately sent someone to send Ying Qiuchuntao to Xu Qingyan. As expected, she was rejected and sent back.
Moreover, Pei Jingchuan had someone bring a message to her and gave her a lecture, saying that she should call Xu Qingyan "sister-in-law" in the future.
This made Xu Qingyue very angry. How could a concubine like her, Xu Qingyan, be worthy of being called sister-in-law? This made Xu Qingyue very angry in the house and broke a lot of things.
"Qingyue, what's wrong with you?" Suddenly, a crisp voice came from outside the door.
Xu Qingyue was stunned when she heard that, then looked outside the door, and saw a woman in a bean green Shu brocade lotus dress walking in with a puzzled look on her face.
"Jinyu, why are you here?" Xu Qingyue immediately put away her anger and called out affectionately.
This woman is the third daughter of the Duke's Mansion, and Pei Jingchuan's biological sister, Pei Jinyu.
"I just came back from the school, and I heard from the servants that something happened on the wedding day. You went from being my eldest sister-in-law to my second sister-in-law, so I hurried to see you. You don't look very well. Did something happen? Did someone bully you? How come you two ended up being married to the wrong person?" Pei Jinyu asked with concern.
She and Xu Qingyue had known each other long before they got married. Xu Qingyue, the daughter of a sixth-rank official, had no way of making friends with her, the legitimate daughter of a duke's mansion. But because of an accident, Xu Qingyue helped her, and that's how they became friends.
When Xu Qingyue saw that Pei Jinyu cared about her so much, her eyes rolled, as if she had thought of something.
She sighed, glanced away aggrievedly, and said: "Jinyu, don't ask. Now that the matter is done, my sister is now the wife of the prince. It's too late to say anything. Don't say anything in front of her, otherwise she will definitely be angry. I was just a little sad just now. She drove away the maidservants my mother gave her as a dowry. It's nothing."
Xu Qingyue's words seemed to be persuading Pei Jinyu and speaking for Xu Qingyan, but in fact, she was telling her that this marriage exchange was not a simple matter. She was told not to ask Xu Qingyan, saying that she would be unhappy because she felt guilty, and she even drove away the dowry maid given by the Xu family, which was obviously ungrateful.
Pei Jinyu was always full of justice. After hearing this, she angrily put her hands on her hips and said, "I never thought that your concubine's daughter would be so scheming. Not only did she snatch your marriage, but now she is bullying you! My eldest brother is really something. How could he be bewitched by this vixen? Qingyue, don't be sad. I will go and seek justice for you now!"
"Jinyu, don't be impulsive!" Xu Qingyue pretended to comfort him.
But at this moment, Pei Jinyu was nowhere to be seen. She ran out angrily after she finished speaking. At this time, Xu Qingyue's mouth curled up slightly, and she slowly revealed a smug smile.
Pei Jinyu loved to stand up for the weak, and she was the favored daughter of the Duke's Mansion. As long as she was sure that Xu Qingyan had bullied her and designed the marriage exchange, she would definitely scold Xu Qingyan to tears! Being able to let Pei Jinyu scold Xu Qingyan was also a way to vent her anger.

"Xu Qingyan, come out right now!" Pei Jinyu rushed into the yard and started cursing before he even entered the house.
At this time, Pei Jingchuan was sitting in the room and had not left yet. He heard Pei Jinyu's voice and frowned subconsciously.
Based on his understanding of his sister over the years, Pei Jinyu's tone was probably ill-intentioned. However, he didn't know why she was like this.
"Pei Jinyu, what are you doing!" Pei Jingchuan walked out of the house and looked at Pei Jinyu coldly.
Pei Jinyu couldn't help but shudder when she saw Pei Jingchuan, and asked in surprise: "Brother? You...why are you here?"
"Why, where do you want me to be?" Pei Jingchuan looked at his sister with cold eyes.
Just at this moment, Xu Qingyan also walked out of the house.
[Is this Pei Jingchuan's love-brained sister? She is Pei Jinyu, the apple of the eye of the entire Duke's Mansion? She is so beautiful! It's just a pity that such a beautiful face has a love-brained mind. Not only did she marry a Phoenix man and help him rise to a high position and make a fortune, but she was actually deceived by that scumbag. He kept his first wife by his side and told her that she was his cousin, and she believed it. He gave Pei Jinyu a sterilizing drug so that she could not have children and raised her cousin's child. In the end, when the child was successful, they sent Pei Jinyu to the west with a bowl of poison. Alas... Pei Jinyu's life can really be written into a rebirth novel! ]
Who? Who is speaking?
When Pei Jinyu heard this, his pupils suddenly trembled and he looked around.
