Outside Jinyunfang.
Liu Yiyi felt anxious as she watched more and more people gathering. Especially when these people were talking and pointing the finger at Pei Yun, she couldn't help but grit her teeth.
If Pei Yun was really labeled as unfaithful and unfilial, I'm afraid his future would be ruined.
But she didn't have a better solution now. She didn't know much about the Pei family's affairs, and she couldn't argue with Yang Wanyi.
Besides, she is not good at arguing with others.
Yang Wanyi obviously came prepared, and there were people in the crowd fanning the flames and leading the rhythm, and now they were basically all condemning Pei Yun.
Taking a deep breath, Liu Yiyi said, "I'll say it again, Jinyunfang is my Liu family's business and has nothing to do with Pei Yun. Don't make trouble here. If you don't leave, I will report you to the police."
"Report to the police? Fine, go ahead. If you don't, I will report to the police as well and sue him for being disobedient and unfilial!"
After saying that, she pushed Liu Yiyi away and rushed into the shop with Pei Mingde and Pei Yujiao. Pei Mingde kicked the counter, leaving a footprint, then grabbed a handful of silver from the box behind the counter and stuffed it into his arms.
He shouted, "These are all left by my father. It is only natural for me to take my own things."
Seeing them being so arrogant, Liu Yiyi was furious. However, because the other party was Pei Yun's adoptive mother, she could not take action directly. She said coldly, "Madam Yang, if you continue to make trouble like this, don't blame me for being rude!"
"You're welcome? Just try and see if you dare to touch me!"
Yang Wanyi sneered, "I am Pei Yun's adoptive mother. Who do you think you are? You are just a servant looking after the shop. Are you qualified to stop me?"
"If Pei Yun doesn't come today, no one can chase me away!" After saying that, he sat down on the chair, his eyes shining as he looked at the silk hanging in the shop.
She had never seen so much fine silk before, and she felt a little regretful. If she had known that Pei Yi had such a promising future as a bandit, she would not have run away.
Although the disabled man she married came from a wealthy family, it was not comparable to the gentry. In addition, the disabled man had many brothers and sisters, so her life was not very good.
Pei Mingde and Pei Yujiao were both still wearing linen clothes. Now that Pei Yi was dead and left behind so many good things, she said she would do anything to get them for Pei Mingde.
Especially when she heard that such good silk was only sold for 50 taels of silver, Yang Wanyi was heartbroken. It was such a waste of money.
That little beast Pei Yun sold the things his father left behind at such a low price. Does he have any conscience at all? If she were to run this business, she would definitely become the richest person in Ruifeng County.
The more he thought about Yang Wanyi, the more excited he became, and he wished he could snatch the shop right now.
Just then, there was a commotion from the crowd outside.
"Make way, everyone, make way."
The crowd made way, and Pei Yun and several others came over.
"The thousand-householder master has arrived!"
Chang Wei called out, and Yang Wanyi, who was sitting in the store, was a little dazed when she saw Pei Yun. She hadn't seen him for six years, and Pei Yun was a little different from what she remembered.
Pei Yun was wearing a dark narrow-sleeved martial robe, a Huiwen crown on his head, and black leather boots on his feet. He looked as sharp as a sword drawn from its sheath.
Compared with six years ago, his figure is taller, his shoulders are broad, his back is straight, and he carries a murderous aura when he walks.
This was the first time Pei Yun officially wore the clothes of a thousand-householder to show his status.
Pei Yun walked to the door of Jinyunfang and stood still, with his right hand casually resting on the hilt of the knife at his waist. He did not speak, but just quietly looked at Yang Wanyi and the other two in the store.
The shop suddenly became eerily quiet!
Pei Mingde, who had been arrogant just now, involuntarily loosened the silk in his hand, but did not take out the silver that he had just stuffed into his arms.
Pei Yujiao also turned pale and hid behind Yang Wanyi.
The people who had been discussing and accusing Pei Yun now shut up. Many of them had heard of Pei Yun, but this was the first time they had actually seen him. Feeling the aura emanating from Pei Yun, they couldn't help but want to step back.
When Liu Yiyi saw Pei Yun coming, she felt relieved, but soon her brows frowned again. She didn't know how Pei Yun would deal with Yang Wanyi. If he didn't handle it well, she would really be branded as unfaithful and unfilial.
Even though Yang Wanyi is not Pei Yun's biological mother, she has raised Pei Yun for ten years. Regardless of whether she was good to Pei Yun or not, these ten years cannot be denied.
At this time, Yang Wanyi's fingers were tightly grasping the armrests of the chair. Looking at Pei Yun in his thousand-household uniform, she suddenly realized that the man in front of her was no longer her adopted son who could be controlled at will.
But she soon calmed down. No matter how high Pei Yun became, she was still his adoptive mother, and no one could change that.
Yang Wanyi stood up suddenly, squeezed out two tears, rushed over and cried, "Son, mother finally sees you. Mother missed you so much these years!"
She deliberately raised her voice, "Your father passed away early, leaving us an orphan and a widow. Now that you have made it, you can't ignore mom!"
As she spoke, her tears flowed even more violently, and combined with her appearance, it seemed that she was really miserable.
"Mingde, Yujiao, why don't you come and meet your eldest brother as soon as possible."
Pei Mingde and Pei Yujiao also ran out hurriedly and called out "Big Brother".
Pei Yun said calmly: "Six years ago, you took your children and abandoned me and my father. Now that I have become a wealthy man, you finally remembered to come back to find me."
Yang Wanyi cried, "Son, I didn't have any other choice at the time. Look at your brothers and sisters, they wear coarse linen clothes and eat grass roots and tree bark. Can you really bear to ignore them?"
Pei Yun had a cold face and said nothing.
Seeing this, Yang Wanyi cried even louder.
"Look everyone, my son, whom I raised with great difficulty, has become an official now and no longer recognizes me as his mother. Although I am not his biological mother, I have raised him for ten years."
