The legitimate daughter becomes cannon fodder? Rebirth to overthrow the system's fatality

Pei Xiu took the children for a walk and stopped from time to time. Pei Yan also bought a bag of hot chestnuts, and they ate them while walking.

"If my teacher saw this, he would scold me for 'behaving inappropriately and having no gentlemanly manners'." Pei Yan stroked his non-existent beard and imitated the old-fashioned teacher in a serious manner.

Pei Xuan put the peeled chestnuts in his little cousin's hand and said with a smile: "We are out here to play today, do whatever makes you happy."

Cheng Jiuyuan looked at the peeled chestnuts in her hand. They were yellow and warm, and looked very tempting.

She raised her head, her eyes slightly curved: "Thank you, cousin."

Pei Xuan said: "Eat it while it's hot."

He leaned slightly to block the crowd for her, with a smile on his face. His innate noble temperament made him stand out in the crowd.

In fact, her three cousins ​​all have great looks, but it’s really hard to describe their temperament.

My second cousin is only two years younger than my eldest cousin, but he still looks very childish.

My third cousin is calm, but too cold.

However, Cheng Jiuyuan knew that his third cousin was not cold, he was just afraid of contacting people, especially those he was not familiar with.

"Wow! Juggling! Come on, come on! Cousin." Pei Yan threw the chestnut into Pei Jin's arms, grabbed Cheng Jiuyuan's wrist and rushed into the crowd.

Cheng Jiuyuan almost dropped the chestnut in his hand.

Pei Xiu yelled from behind: "You little bastard, protect your cousin!"

Thanks to Pei Yan, Cheng Jiuyuan occupied a viewing position with an excellent view.

Soon, the three young masters of the Pei family stood behind her and protected her tightly.

Cheng Jiuyuan watched the acrobatics and ate the chestnuts peeled by her cousin, her cheeks puffed up.

Pei Xiu watched from the side and felt happy too.

That's a bit childish.

After watching the circus, the group continued on their way.

Pei Xiu stopped when passing by a gold and silver shop.

"Yuan'er, I think you dress too simply every day. This is our own gold and silver shop. Let's go in and see if there is anything you like." Pei Xiu pulled Cheng Jiuyuan and was about to go in.

"No need, uncle." Cheng Jiuyuan didn't plan to go.

"Why not? Although you are in mourning, your clothes are too plain. You are still a child." Pei Xiu persuaded.

Which child doesn't like colorful and beautiful things? Pei Xiu wanted to give her the best.

Seeing that Cheng Jiuyuan really didn't want to buy it, Pei Xuan said, "Why light green or deep red? It is the best among flowers. Dad, if my cousin doesn't want it, there is no need to force it. This is also good."

"That's right, my cousin is right."

"Just pick a few pieces, and pick two for your grandmother and aunt as well."

As they were talking, a familiar figure came down from the building.

She walked out with a grim look on her face, but was stopped by the shopkeeper who came hurriedly.

"Miss Weng, our boss said that the Weng family can no longer keep accounts. We must settle each order one by one."

The maid behind Weng Ruyi immediately shouted, "How do you do business? Are you blind? You even dare to stop Magistrate Weng's daughter! Are you afraid that my girl will default on her debt?"

The shopkeeper smiled apologetically but refused to budge. "Miss, please don't embarrass me. I am just following orders."

Weng Ruyi's eyes were threatening: "I think you don't want to continue in Gusu! Well, I will pay the bill today, don't regret it!"

The shopkeeper was complaining bitterly in his heart, he did not dare to offend the county magistrate's daughter, but he was receiving a monthly salary from his employer, so naturally he had to do whatever his employer said.

"Miss, the total cost of your headgear today is one hundred and eighty taels."

Weng Ruyi took the purse from the maid, opened it, and his face immediately became even worse.

She was used to squandering in the Pei family, and she didn't have to pay to get things in their own building.

In the past, she would never take more than one hundred taels seriously.

just now……

You have to know that her father's salary is only three taels a month.

If they hadn't relied on other means to make money, the Weng family would have starved to death relying on the money given by the imperial court.

She looked at the box in the maid's hand and was considering whether to change to a cheaper headdress when she saw Pei Xiu coming in with a few children.

She swallowed the words "no" in time.

At this time, there were many guests in the building, all of whom were secretly looking at the couple who had recently divorced.

"What's going on?" Pei Xiu looked at the shopkeeper and asked.

"Boss." The shopkeeper bowed, "It's nothing serious. Miss Weng bought something and was just about to pay."

"Boss, what do you want to order today?"

Pei Xiu pointed at Cheng Jiuyuan behind him and said, "Bring everything in the store that's suitable for children of this age. Get the best ones."

The shopkeeper immediately ordered someone to get it, then turned to look at Pei Xiu and the other young masters and said, "Master, please go upstairs and have some tea."

Pei Xiu took the children upstairs.

Weng Ruyi saw that Pei Xiu didn't seem to see her, so she called out anxiously, "Pei Xiu!"

Pei Xiu looked at her as if he was looking at a stranger.

Weng Ruyi lifted the hair beside her ear, smiled and walked towards Pei Xiu, who immediately took a step back.

Weng Ruyi's face changed slightly: "Pei Xiu, a husband and wife for a day is a hundred days of grace, how can you be so heartless?"

Pei Xiu looked puzzled: "What did I do?"

"It's only natural for you to pay for things you buy. What? Do you want to get it for free?" Pei Yan stepped forward, put his hands on his hips and said loudly.

Weng Ruyi's face was filled with anxiety, and he said in a cold voice: "What a great Pei family! Pei Xiu, do you think that the Pei family can still be smooth sailing without me? I am waiting to see what happens to your Pei family!"

After saying that, he was about to leave angrily.

Pei Xiu looked at the shopkeeper and said, "Send someone to the Weng Mansion to get the silver!"

If you don’t take it now, the Weng family will be gone in a few days and you won’t be able to take it.

"Pei Xiu, don't regret it!" Weng Ruyi stopped and said harshly.

Everyone else was shocked.

This was the first time someone dared to go to the Weng Mansion to ask for money.

The Weng family has been eating and taking things for free over the years.

Not only did the merchants not get paid, but they also had to smile and say "welcome back next time" at the end.

Cheng Jiuyuan looked at Weng Ruyi's back. In her previous life, it was this thing that deceived her for three years.

If she had discovered the clues earlier, she would not have been able to obtain the Northern Qi border map for Chu Ze.

Fortunately, in this life, the Weng family has come to an end.

He thought to himself that Mengzhou was not doing his work but wandering around the streets, no wonder he was so slow.

"Let's go, after we choose the jewelry, we'll go to the restaurant for dinner." Pei Xiu took Cheng Jiuyuan's hand and walked upstairs.

After returning home from dinner, Pei Xiu and Cheng Jiuyuan took the jewelry to Shouchun Hall.

"This is what Yuan'er chose for you."

Old Madam Pei and Mrs. Sheng kept praising Cheng Jiuyuan for her good taste.

Ever since Weng Ruyi left the Pei family, Old Lady Pei and Mrs. Sheng have been in a good mood.

But when I thought of the empty warehouse, I felt a little regretful.

"There are so many things in the warehouse. It's really a bargain for the Weng family."

"I will return it." Pei Xiu took a sip of tea and added casually.

Mrs. Pei and Mrs. Sheng looked at him.

"What do you mean?"

"Are you hiding something from us?"

Sheng remembered that Pei Xiu had asked her to put the Pei family crest on every item in the warehouse.

"You will know in a few days." Pei Xiu and Cheng Jiuyuan looked at each other and smiled mysteriously.
