The Male Wife

Pei Cheng had nothing to do, originally thought of going out for a few laps before going back, but before he left the range of the inn, he saw Chen who ran home a few days ago crying in front of him with snot and tears The lady stood before her.

Mrs. Chen is no longer as arrogant and domineering as she was at the beginning, but there is a frown on her brows. She seems to have gotten the news a long time ago, knowing that Pei Cheng is now in the inn, so she guarded outside the inn early, Mrs. Chen When he saw Pei Cheng appearing, his eyes lit up, he subconsciously ran up, stood in front of Pei Cheng, smiled and said, "I'm being polite."

"Madam Chen didn't stay at home, but she came to the inn. Did she come to see me specially, or did she just pass by by chance?" Pei Cheng said with a smile, but his expression was serious and scrutinized.

As soon as he came to the inn, he saw Mrs. Chen outside the inn. This must not be a coincidence. Pei Cheng guessed that maybe the Chen family saw him nearby, or maybe it was because the Chen family sent someone to follow him secretly. .It doesn't matter if the former is a coincidence, but for the latter, Pei Cheng needs to be vigilant.

Mrs. Chen didn't realize what Pei Cheng's words meant at the beginning, but after seeing the indifference on Pei Cheng's face and the cold air of refusal from thousands of miles away, she instantly understood what Pei Cheng's words meant just now. Mrs. Chen smiled bitterly and said: "I'm just a woman. Even if I really wanted to, I wouldn't be able to do these things. Please rest assured, Mrs. Jiang."

Mrs. Chen is a person who knows the current affairs and is a hero. She begged Pei Cheng's behavior in the Jiang mansion without shame before, but she just thought that she was too worried about her husband, otherwise she would not have done so.In fact, when Mrs. Chen returned home that day, after she calmed down and thought about it, she was also frightened into a cold sweat by her previous behavior.

Pei Cheng politely refused: "I know Mrs. Chen won't be that kind of villain, but it's getting late now, and I've been out for a while, so I have to go back to deal with the second master."

What Pei Cheng said was to imply that Mrs. Chen Pei Cheng's going out this time was known by Jiang Linzhi, so he secretly warned Mrs. Chen not to mess around.

Mrs. Chen is also a person with a delicate mind. How could she not know that there is something in Pei Cheng's words, but now that the matter is so urgent, how dare she let Pei Cheng who had finally met leave? She gritted her teeth, took a step forward, and Looking at Pei Cheng pleadingly, "I was wrong about what happened to Mrs. Jiang last time. I shouldn't have been obsessed with saying those things in front of you, but I'm really in trouble now, otherwise I wouldn't have gotten it." If you hear the news of the servant, hurry to the inn and wait until now, my sincerity is true."

Of course Pei Cheng knew that the other party sincerely wanted to see him this time, but what did it have to do with him?

"It's not that I don't help you, it's just that I'm the same as you. In other words, my status in the Wuwu Pavilion may not be as good as Mrs. Chen's status in the Chen family, so it's true that you came to beg me this time. I asked the wrong person." Pei Cheng persuaded with good intentions, "Plus, even if you really ask for help in this kind of matter, you will still be looking for Pavilion Master Jiang, I am a man and wife, where can I talk at home. "

Mrs. Chen's face turns green and pale, she is not a fool, she can't see that this is Pei Cheng deliberately rejecting herself.

But even if Mrs. Chen can really see that this is Pei Cheng deliberately rejecting her, so what?Pei Cheng's refusal, isn't it just a refusal of the Chen family's overture.Isn't that the answer?

However, how could Mrs. Chen be reconciled? The Chen family had managed to climb to their current position after so many years. Now how could she completely lose her position as a merchant in New Southwest just because of a trivial matter? Let alone her A woman who stayed in the backyard all year round couldn't accept it, even Master Chen couldn't accept it.

Mrs. Chen gritted her teeth, and tears fell down.

Pei Cheng couldn't harden his heart in an instant.

Speaking of which, although Mrs. Chen's current age is well maintained, she is an elderly woman... In fact, when Pei Cheng saw Mrs. Chen for the first time, he always felt that this woman was very similar to his mother.

Pei's mother had died a long time ago, and Mrs. Chen, who looked very similar to Pei's mother, stood in front of Pei Cheng with a half or sixty similar face and age, begging him for a little time. At that time, how could Pei Cheng be hardened.

After all, no matter how cruel Pei Cheng is, he really can't be cruel to an elderly woman, after all, she is still a woman.

Dong Lai, who has been with Pei Cheng from the beginning to the end, sensed Pei Cheng's softening attitude and frowned. Although he wanted to remind Pei Cheng, his identities are different from Pei Cheng's. I don't know what to say.

So in desperation, Dong Lai could only follow behind Pei Cheng eagerly, followed Mrs. Chen to a nearby tea shed and sat down.

Mrs. Chen naturally wanted to bring Pei Cheng back to her home, but now she managed to get Pei Cheng to leave some time for herself, so naturally she didn't dare to make further progress, so Mrs. Chen only dared to bring Pei Cheng to the neighborhood Mrs. Chen called for a pot of tea and poured tea for Pei Cheng herself, "I know you have been resenting our Chen family. I am the Chen family. I am the Chen family. If I want to speak for the Chen family, I can't tell lies—the Chen family has really lost to the Wuwu Pavilion."

Pei Cheng raised his eyebrows, "The fact that the Chen family is in charge of Wuwu Pavilion, is it just your Madam Chen's idea, or the whole Chen family's idea?"

The idea of ​​the whole Chen family, of course, refers to Master Chen.

Mrs. Chen said: "Mrs. Jiang, why bother to say these provocative words? If I hadn't come here today because of the master's permission, how would I dare to pester you again and again. In fact, the master also knew that he was wrong, but Pavilion Master Jiang has always refused to see you." We, our Chen family were raised by Wuwu Pavilion, so we naturally dare not forget our roots."

"Well, since you don't dare to forget your roots, why do you choose to give up the Inorganic Pavilion at the most critical moment." Pei Cheng didn't intend to give Madam Chen a chance. His tone is really chilling.

The Chen family and the Inorganic Pavilion have been completely broken up long ago.Since they are white-eyed wolves, there is no need for them to continue raising them.And the Chen family who chose to betray, since they chose to betray from the beginning, why didn't they go all the way to the dark, why did they turn back again after getting revenge from the Wuwu Pavilion?It's ridiculous.

Madam Chen pursed her lips and remained silent.

Mrs. Chen naturally knows that she is not liked by others now, but she has never thought that she will be liked by Re, because of what happened before, she dissuaded her husband from the beginning, telling him not to do things like this Absolutely, but the master seems to be bewitched, firmly believing that his girl will really choose the imperial concubine.

In the final analysis, it was their fault, and it was really...

Now the girl has been chosen as a princess with no real power. Although they are both royals, they don’t know that there are still differences between royals and royals. valuable.

Forget it, some things are easy to chill when you say them, so it's better not to say them.Madam Chen comforted herself so deeply in her heart, she took a deep breath, looked at Pei Cheng, and said, "I came to Madam Jiang this time to really apologize to you, and the master also wants to do the same. So, I hope You can forgive us. Even if you don’t forgive us, we don’t expect to continue to be protected by the Wuwu Pavilion, but, we hope that the Wuwu Pavilion will show us a noble hand, stop paying attention to us, and give us a way out.”

"I don't quite understand what Mrs. Chen's words mean." Pei Cheng pretended not to understand. He knew that the Chen family's weakness now was simply because Wuwu Pavilion was secretly putting pressure on them. If it wasn't for Wuwu Pavilion If they put pressure on them secretly, this group of people will not beg for mercy until now, nor will they beg for mercy, nor will they lie down and be petty.

Speaking of it, Pei Cheng really felt that Jiang Linzhi really helped some disrespectful white-eyed wolves.

In fact, Pei Cheng can also see that, not to mention the Chen couple of the Chen family, even the father and son of the Shi family are not loyal to Wuwu Pavilion. When Southwest hid the national treasury privately, they would directly report it to Wuwu Pavilion, or they would clarify the state treasury before Wuwu Pavilion planned to move the entire main pavilion to New Southwest.

But the Shi family's father and son are not as decisive as the Chen family's couple. Although they are all white-eyed wolves, but after knowing Wuwu Pavilion's methods, the Shi family's father and son chose to have a little cleverness and take some harmless small kickbacks instead of being like the Chen family. This directly chose betrayal.

After all, to deal with these merchants, you still need to be relatively strong, otherwise, no matter how loyal your subordinates are at the beginning, no one will obey others after a long time.

Pei Cheng said: "I just told Mrs. Chen that these are important matters related to Wuwu Pavilion. I really have no way to make decisions. Has Mrs. Chen always ignored my words?"

Mrs. Chen naturally heard it, but she felt that Pei Cheng was saying these words on purpose, just to let herself get out of trouble.

Mrs. Chen sighed deeply, "No matter what we do or say, the Inorganic Pavilion thinks that we are very betrayal, but I hope, Mrs. Jiang, you can trust us, we are really... we It’s really just going the wrong way, it’s not really about betraying the Wuwu Pavilion, I hope, I hope the Wuwu Pavilion can give us another chance.”

"We have given you several chances, but you never know how to cherish them." Pei Cheng said with regret in his tone, "It's getting late, I should go back, and leave."

Pei Cheng made a gesture to get up.

Madam Chen subconsciously wanted to stop Pei Cheng.
