The two children looked at Pei Zhi timidly and whispered, "Auntie."
The sister-in-law quickly explained, "The child is still young and hasn't met you yet. He'll get to know you better after we get to know each other."
Pei Zhi nodded slightly, and Du Lei clapped his hands at the children. The two children excitedly rushed into Du Lei's arms.
The older sister-in-law looked at him with a smile in her eyes, "A-Wang is usually busy with work, so he leaves his children in the village to be taken care of most of the time."
“Leizi and Qingyuan come here often. Every time they come, they bring lots of things for the children. The children are very affectionate towards them.”
The eldest sister-in-law said, "These uncles are even closer to the children than Pei Wang, the father."
"My second brother is busy with work. I guess he got married because his parents were pressuring him to.
Pei Zhi thought that, given Pei Wang's personality, he wouldn't settle down and get married until he was at least thirty or forty years old.
Unexpectedly, Pei Wang got married so early.
Thinking about it, it makes sense why Pei Wang got married so early.
The eldest brother and sister-in-law in the family have been unable to have children for many years.
At that time, she had another accident, and the house must have been filled with a deathly silence.
Pei Wang guessed that he wanted to get married and have a child as soon as possible to bring some life to the family.
Otherwise, Pei Wang would never have decided to get married so early.
"Come on, I'll show you inside the room."
Pei Zhi was somewhat surprised, "I still have a room?"
If Pei Zhi had simply gotten married, it wouldn't have been a big deal for her family to leave her a house.
But she's already dead, and she's been dead for several years. When her family built a new house, they actually left her a room.
"What are you saying? You decided to build a house in the first place."
"Firstly, Ah Wang and your older brother have also made some money over the years."
"Secondly, during holidays and festivals, too many people come to visit. After having children, there are even more people, and there's simply not enough room for everyone."
“When we decided to build a house, Dad said that he would definitely leave you a room so that you would remember to come back and visit.”
As she spoke, her eyes reddened again, "At least, this room wasn't left unused."
The eldest sister-in-law led Pei Zhi upstairs. The first floor was the room of her parents, eldest brother and sister-in-law, and the child.
The child is too young; it's inconvenient for him to sleep on the stairs.
The kitchen is on the other side of the yard, which is quite convenient.
On the second floor of the small villa, the eldest sister-in-law led Pei Zhi to the room with the best lighting.
The interior was clean and tidy, and the furniture didn't look cheap.
"This is the room reserved for you; no one has moved in yet."
“These outside are all guest rooms, including A-Wang’s room.”
Pei Zhi carefully examined the room; the furniture she had chosen was clearly in her preferred colors and styles.
The person who chooses the furniture should know her very well.
“Every year, when your brother releases a new set of clothes, he brings back a set that you can wear and asks me to hang it in the closet, saying that he will burn it for you in the future so that you can keep it as a memento.”
After the sister-in-law finished speaking, she realized something was wrong.
The older sister-in-law patted her mouth and said, "Look at my mouth! You're back now, and I'm still saying such unlucky things."
Downstairs, Pei's mother called out, and her sister-in-law responded.
"I'll go downstairs to help Mother. You can stay upstairs and watch."
Pei Zhi sighed and casually pushed open the door to one of the rooms.
As soon as the door opened and she saw the blankets on the bed, Pei Zhi knew it was Du Lei's room.
Pei Zhi couldn't think of anyone else who could have folded the blankets so neatly, just like tofu blocks.
The bed sheets were neat and tidy, without a single wrinkle.
The sound of children's laughter came from downstairs, and Pei Zhi stood at the window and looked down.
In the yard, two children and a dog were having a great time.
Du Lei had a cigarette in his mouth, and Cheng Xuelin, Jiang Qingyuan, and the eldest brother were all gathered together, seemingly discussing something.
The eldest brother looked troubled, as if he had encountered some kind of trouble.
Du Lei grabbed Brother Pei and told him to tell everyone that the new distant relative of the Pei family was someone he, Du Lei, had found, and that she was also his fiancée.
How could Brother Pei dare to agree to something like this?
Cheng Xuelin and Jiang Qingyuan, standing to the side, naturally held opposing opinions.
Du Lei retorted bluntly to Jiang Qingyuan, "Jiang Qingyuan, what right do you have to object?"
“You were already married to Pei Zhi, but you didn’t protect her properly, and this accident happened to her.”
“If she were to marry me now, I would absolutely never let such a thing happen to her again.”
Jiang Qingyuan felt resentful after being lectured by Du Lei, but he also felt uneasy thinking about the years Pei Zhi had been away from him.
If Du Lei can protect Pei Zhi, then he should marry her.
As for Cheng Xuelin, Du Lei naturally didn't hold back either.
"Cheng Xuelin, has our attitude towards you been too good these past few years? Have you forgotten who you are?"
"Don't forget, if it were your mother back then, Zhizhi wouldn't have gotten into this mess. The culprit is your mother."
Cheng Xuelin was too lazy to argue with Du Lei about other things.
But Cheng Xuelin couldn't just accept Pei Zhi like that.
"Yes, it was my mother who wronged Zhizhi, so now she's in hell."
Cheng Xuelin said sarcastically, "What, you want to teach her a lesson? Then go find her."
Du Lei sneered, threw away his cigarette butt, and made a move to attack.
Upon seeing this, Brother Pei immediately stepped in front of the two of them.
"What are you doing? What are you doing?"
Brother Pei said in a low voice, "Zhizhi just got back, what, you two are already fighting?"
