Chapter 353 Eating Pot
Pei Ji's eyes became even colder.
Such a young child, yet he wants to kill someone as soon as he opens his mouth, how domineering he is.
Aunt Mu didn't think there was anything wrong, and when she realized what was happening, she became even angrier.
"Grandmother, Mu Qing actually bullied Mu Yuan. Yuan'er was beaten like this, so she was punished to kneel in the ancestral hall for seven days and was not allowed to eat."
Mu Qing was so scared that tears started to fall.
Seven days, this is what cost the girl her life.
Song Ci: "It was your son who started bullying first, why do you have to punish Mu Qing? Is this the rule of the Mu family?"
Aunt Mu's expression changed drastically. "In our Mu family, it's not your turn to take charge."
Mrs. Mu: "Miss Song, this is our family matter. Mu Qing is the elder sister, she should give in to her younger brother..."
Aunt Mu said: "My poor son, he was beaten like this! Miss Song, the child is young, just talk to him nicely, how could you hit him? Pei Ji, please speak."
Mu Rao also followed and hugged the child. The three of them hugged each other and shed tears silently, as if they were all victims.
Pei Ji suddenly sneered, "I think the fight was good, and he deserved it!"
Everyone was stunned.
Old Lady Mu: "Pei Ji, what are you doing..."
Pei Ji: "Grandmother, do you think what I said is wrong? Or is it because my last name is not Mu that I have no right to speak?"
Mrs. Mu: "Of course that's not what I meant."
Pei Ji said: "This child is so naughty even though he is young. He is so cruel and ruthless to others. I think the punishment is to make him kneel in the ancestral hall and not eat for seven days."
Aunt Mu, Mu Rao, and Mu Yuan were all dumbfounded.
Why punish them instead?
Mu Yuan cried even harder, pointing at Pei Ji and cursing, "Who the hell are you? You're just an outsider. Get out! Who told you to meddle in my family's affairs? Mu Qing, that bitch! I wanted to kill her, but no one dared to scold me."
Pei Ji's eyes turned cold, "Alin."
A-Lin: "Yes."
He took a few steps forward and slapped Kihara in the face before anyone could react.
The entire right side of Mu Yuan's face suddenly became red and swollen, swollen like a pig's head.
He looked at A Lin and was so scared that he was stunned and forgot to cry.
Aunt Mu: "You, you! Your Pei family is going too far!"
Old Lady Mu said: "Pei Ji, he is your cousin, how could you, how could you hurt him like this."
Pei Ji showed no mercy. "I don't have such a wicked cousin. He's so cruel to his own sisters, and even more so to outsiders. I advise grandmother not to show mercy to such a troublemaker. Beat him when he deserves it, otherwise there will be endless trouble."
Mu Rao stood up and looked directly at Song Ci: "You're not going to say a word? If it weren't for you, how could the family be in such a mess!"
Song Ci: "What did I say? I haven't blamed your brother for hitting me."
Mu Rao was furious: "You!"
Pei Ji: "That's enough! It seems that the Mu family doesn't welcome us today. I'm leaving now."
Old Madam Mu tried to persuade him to stay, "Pei Ji, you've come all this way, it won't be too late to have lunch before leaving."
Pei Ji: "No, I don't have the appetite for such a group of people."
This was a blatant insult to the Mu family, and they were all very upset. But Old Lady Mu kept trying to get her grandson to come home. She had finally gotten him to come home, but he was leaving before she could even say anything.
She signaled Song Ci with her eyes to help speak, but Song Ci pretended not to see and was grabbed by Pei Ji's hand and led forward.
Only after getting on the carriage did he say, "I'm sorry for making you suffer today. I didn't expect that my grandmother and my aunt would be so indiscriminate."
Song Ci: "People are always partial."
Compared to this, she was more worried about what would happen to Mu Qing after she and the others left.
Pei Ji: "You are worried about her."
Song Ci: "She is a good child. When Mu Yuan threw the stone just now, she was the first to remind me and she subconsciously blocked it for me."
Pei Ji smiled and said, "Okay, I'll send someone to tell them that if Mu Qing is punished or bullied, the Mu family will treat me as their grandson from now on."
Song Ci nodded slightly.
If he hadn't said it to this point, I'm afraid the people of the Mu family would not really let Mu Qing go.
Mu family.
Mu Rao cried out, "Mother, why did cousin Pei Ji leave?"
Aunt Mu felt sorry for her son and hugged him, calling him her darling. She had no mood to pay attention to her daughter.
Aunt Mu: "Let's talk about this later. Your brother has been beaten like this! As his sister, you don't even care about him."
Mu Rao: "Isn't he okay?"
Aunt Mu was furious. "He's okay? He's crying like this, and you're still saying he's okay."
Mu Rao pouted, really biased.
Mrs. Mu said after a while, "Old lady, you were just being reckless today."
The old lady spoke, and Aunt Mu's face turned grim. "They hurt my son, mother, I couldn't control it. Mu Yuan, I gave birth to him with great difficulty..."
Old Mrs. Mu felt a headache when she saw her like this. It was because she doted on Mu Yuan that Mu Yuan became more and more out of control, more and more erratic and violent over the years.
"When Mu Yuan's injury heals, send him to the academy. He's not young anymore, and it's hard for him to succeed if he stays in the backyard."
"Mom!" Aunt Mu couldn't believe it. "Mu Yuan is still young, how could you..."
"Still young? He's almost fourteen! His brothers, at that age, would have already been studying and traveling. How far do you want to spoil him? I know you're upset because your eldest brother isn't close to you, but you can't keep Mu Yuan by your side forever just because of that."
"Why not!" Aunt Mu retorted, "Mu Yuan is intelligent. The Taoist priest said he has great talent. Even if he is pampered, it won't be a problem."
Knowing that she couldn't persuade him, Mrs. Mu stopped talking.
Instead, they talked about Mu Rao.
"Today I was going to let Rao'er go to Pei's house to be a concubine, now it's all right. Pei Ji is not close to us because of the incident with his mother, and now it's even more ugly, how can we bring it up in the future? I wanted Rao'er to be a lobbyist, now it's all right."
Aunt Mu didn't care. "Which man doesn't like new things? Rao'er is good-looking. If we get to know her more in the future, I'm not afraid Pei Ji won't be tempted. Once Rao'er has Pei Ji under her control, will I still be afraid that Pei Ji won't help us?"
Old Lady Mu looked at her confident expression, then at Mu Rao's shy face, and somehow she thought of Song Ci.
That gentle, beautiful and calm face.
Mu Rao is serious. Can he compete with her?
In the carriage.
After walking for a while, neither of them was in a hurry to go back.
Pei Ji: "Are you hungry?"
Song Ci: "I'm a little hungry." She answered honestly. She didn't eat much this morning and was already starving.
Pei Ji: "What do you want to eat? To fill your stomach." He raised his hand and took a piece of dessert for her.
Song Ci took a bite and the dessert was warm.
She spoke incoherently, her cheeks puffing up. Pei Ji looked at her with a smile, his eyes as gentle as water.
"I want to eat hotpot. Is there any good hotpot nearby?"
