BXBX NOVEL Chapter 467: meet parents
Xiao Junlin was also in a bad mood. The best way to deal with people like Pei Shu is to use the old emperor's suspicion to kill people. But now this best way is temporarily impossible, so I can only find another way.
Another compartment.
Kyoto, Pei Mansion.
Flower Hall.
"After the morning court today, His Majesty came here to ask me what I think of the latest rumors in Kyoto." Pei Shuzhen said with a smile.
Mrs. Pei poured a cup of tea for her husband, and joked with a smile: "Then what did you say?"
Pei Shu took the teacup and wandered around for a while, with a half-smile and said: "Of course I can only tell Your Majesty—this group of 'Chu State Secret Workers' must be severely tortured."
This is a sentence that defines the nature of the group of "mobs". No matter whether they are "Chu's secret agents" or not, they must be "Chu's secret agents" since Prime Minister Pei uttered this sentence.
Since it is a fine work, it will naturally not escape the fate of torture and execution.
Pei Shu has always been lenient in dealing with these people with unruly intentions.
Pei Yi sat on the side silently, like a little transparent.
She came here today to discuss things with her father on purpose. Who would have thought that the final result of the discussion would be that she was sitting here alone being abused by her father and mother.
Originally, the three of them were analyzing the situation at the beginning, but for some reason, it turned into her father and her mother talking to each other, and invisibly erecting a high wall exclusive to the world of the two of them. , directly isolated her, a girl, from the outside.
Really, she's so stupid.
If she had known that she would face this kind of dog abuse scene, she should have separated it—only talked to one of her father or mother alone, and could not put this crooked couple together.
I really can't afford to hurt.
Pei Yi turned her eyes away and sighed tiredly.
After chatting with her husband for a while, Mrs. Pei seemed to finally remember the girl who had been forgotten in the corner, and specially smiled and commented kindly: "Fanyin, you have done a good job with this. You are a late striker. Let's go!" The way of the rumor makers, so that the rumor makers have nowhere to go."
Pei Yixin said: A Niang, you think of me. But don't be too perfunctory with your words, okay?
Although she complained a lot, Pei Yi was still obedient.
She didn't dare to take credit, and said honestly: "Xun Huan is actually handling this matter."
Pei Shu was overjoyed, his eyes brightened and he said: "Is it a child of the Xun family? This kid is very smart. Speaking of which, the Xun family and the Pei family are family friends, and the two families should move around more."
Pei Yi knew that his father had always wanted to see Xun Huan, so she immediately proposed: "Xun Huan has been helping the inner guards these days, and he can only leave the office in the next year. I will let him inform him, and come directly to Pei's mansion after the office is over. .”
Pei Shu nodded with a smile, "Okay."
Mrs. Pei knew that her husband valued this old man's son very much, so she asked enthusiastically: "Fanyin, what does Mr. Xun Xiaolang like to eat, and what are his taboos? Just give me an order, and the kitchen can be prepared."
This is what Pei Yi is careful about. Usually, as long as a person has eaten at the same table with her once, she can remember what that person's favorite dishes are.
For someone like Xun Huan who she has played at the same dinner table countless times, she naturally knows his tastes and dislikes very well.
"He prefers salty and sweet flavors, especially vinegar fish and fried bells." Pei Yi said without thinking.
Pei Shu nodded with a satisfied smile and said, "Isn't this just like your taste, you two won't quarrel over eating when you live together."
Mrs. Pei snorted eccentrically.
Pei Shu realized that he had lost his temper, and immediately shut up resentfully.
Pei Yi glanced at her old father, and said with complicated emotions: "Father, don't mess with the mandarin ducks, I don't have the intention to talk about marriage right now."
Pei Shu coughed dryly, pretending to be serious and said: "You don't have to think about it now, but you still have to think about it in the future. I think the Xun family boy is very good."
Pei Yi rubbed her throbbing temples.
She really wants to know, is it true that people who have been on the battlefield have a kind of obsessive love for the children of their comrades?
Obviously her father hasn't even met Xun Huan in person, but now he's seeing him as his son-in-law.
You are three quarters.
The princes of the Pei family returned from their yamen.
Xun Huan and Xiao Junji also came happily.
Several men met unexpectedly at the gate of Pei's house.
Xiao Junji saluted immediately: "Big Brother, Second Brother."
Not to be outdone, Xun Huan also saluted and said, "Big Brother, Second Brother."
Second brother Pei Xuanting smiled.
Treating these two future brother-in-laws who are very good at making troubles, Pei Xuanting is very kind, and joked with a smile: "I have two more brothers out of thin air."
Boss Pei Xuanzong looked serious and disgusted.
He glanced coldly at the two men who plotted against his sister, and said indifferently: "I don't have brothers with a different surname."
Although Xun Huan was being treated like this in person, he kept a kind smile on his face. He thought, after all, this is the elder brother of his sweetheart, and it is normal for him to be a little bit embarrassed. And the more this is the case, the more he has to win over this future brother-in-law.
Xiao Junji didn't show any dissatisfaction when he hit such a big nail on the spot.
But he didn't smile like Xun Huan and said nothing, but smiled appreciatively: "What the elder brother said is true. After entering the door, everyone is a family, so it's right to change your mouth."
Pei Xuan raised his eyebrows slightly, and joked with a very kind smile: "Hearing your tone, do you want to enter my Pei family's door and become the son-in-law?"
Xiao Junji smiled shyly, silently acquiescing to the matter.
Xun Huan shouted in his heart that Xiao Langren didn't talk about martial arts - he was so shameless that he was willing to marry him, so what else could others say? Do you also follow suit? This is of course impossible.
Pei Xuanzong sized up Xiao Junji very critically, with a stern face and noncommittal, he stepped directly into the threshold and walked in.
Pei Xuanting also walked in with his elder brother, his face was not as serious as his elder brother, but full of spring, as if he was very happy to have such two future brother-in-laws.
In order to please the two future brothers-in-law, Xiao Junji and Xun Huan showed great respect and humility—when walking, they deliberately let the two brothers-in-law walk in front, while they themselves followed.
Pei Xuanzong has been struggling in the officialdom, and he is very clear about the twists and turns of this form, and he is also very sensitive. He silently remembered the performance of these two brats in his heart, but he didn't show any expression on his mouth, and his face didn't seem to relax.
Not long after, a group of people arrived at the hall.
Prime Minister Pei Shu, Mrs. Pei and Pei Yi had already been waiting there.
"Father, Aunt." The two brothers of the Pei family saluted and greeted Pei Shu and his wife.
"Pei Xiangguo, Mrs. Pei." Xun Huan said very dutifully.
Xiao Junji tentatively said: "Father-in-law, mother-in-law."
Pei Yi's eyes widened slightly, and she glanced at Mr. Xiao in disbelief, and then turned her gaze to her father.
Although she didn't say a word, her face was full of doubts: Dad, have you already recognized Xiao Junji, the son-in-law? When did this happen? How come I don't know anything about it?
Pei Xuanting was equally astonished, and then pursed his lips into a smirk, thinking to himself that this young man of the Xiao family had really brought his thick eyelids to the extreme.
Pei Xuanzong was still very stable. Except for a slight change in his expression when he heard the "father-in-law", he has remained calm since then.
Among the people present, Xun Huan was the most restless at the moment.
He really didn't understand Xiao Junji, a ronin, at all—he didn't play cards according to common sense at all, he was completely shameless, and he was completely shameless.
Even the father-in-law and the target of the moon are called, does this mean that Pei Xiangguo has agreed to Xiao Junji's marriage?
Xun Huan couldn't help being dumbfounded when he thought of this.
Competing with rivals on the same stage, the emphasis is on whether I have you or not, and what you have I will be better than you.
Now, Xiao Junji is so willing to go out - he has already proposed to marry, should I also marry? Thinking of this, Xun Huan couldn't help but shudder.
No, no!
Xiao Junji can be shameless, but I can't accept Xiao Junji's shameless behavior. Xun Huan complained indignantly in his heart, but he was still very polite on his face.
At least, Xun Huan did not follow his own temperament to prevent Xiao Junji from coming to the stage on the spot, and fully showed that he was generous enough, broad-minded enough, courageous and far-sighted enough before his mother-in-law and father-in-law would be full in the future.
Compared to everyone's surprise and imagination, Mrs. Pei was much calmer.
As a person who has seen the storm, Mrs. Pei saw the bottom of Xiao Junji without saying a single glance, but at least in the matter of feelings, she saw Xiao Junji thoroughly.
What's more, from a certain point of view, Xiao Junji's pursuit of people was all taught by her, so how could she fail to understand the current situation of Xiao Junji?
This young son of the Xiao family is clearly trying to test the attitude of the couple, and he shouts "father-in-law and mother-in-law" so happily, just to see if the couple can accept it.
If neither she nor her old man showed any dislike today, the young son of the Xiao family would keep calling him "father-in-law and mother-in-law" all the time.
Mrs. Pei is very clear about such shameless tactics.
However, she didn't look down on Xiao Junji's small tricks, nor did she look down on Xiao Junji.
So, even if she had a thorough understanding of the other party's current thoughts, Mrs. Pei did not show that she wanted to suppress the other party.
Pei Shu's reaction was a bit intriguing.
He glanced at Xiao Junji meaningfully, and said in a neutral tone: "Have you entered the door, and you changed your mind in such a hurry?"
The so-called "entering the door" of course refers to the door where Xiao Junji "married" into Pei's family as a son-in-law.
Now Xiao Junji obviously hasn't "married" into Pei's family, so naturally he hasn't entered the house yet.
However, Pei Shu's words seemed to be ridiculed and ridiculed. He didn't seem to dislike Xiao Junji calling him "father-in-law", but he was also unwilling to answer Xiao Junji's "father-in-law" at this time.
Xiao Junji also went on the road, and immediately said humbly: "Uncle Pei is very right, everything pays attention to a rule. Naturally, calling these things is one thing when you enter the door, and another thing when you don't enter the door. I was too impatient. It's too verbal."
Madam Pei calmly sipped the Yuhua tea from the south, and the raised blue and white porcelain teacup well covered the corners of her upturned lips.
This Xiao Shizi really judged the situation and changed his words surreptitiously. He really knew how to win the relationship as much as possible. This "Uncle Pei" made her feel comfortable calling her old man.
Ms. Pei smiled unconsciously, and her heart was full of a leisurely attitude of watching all kinds of magical powers of the younger generation, a bit like a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law.
But her eldest son is obviously not like this—he has always kept a stern face, just like his father-in-law looks more and more disgusted by his son-in-law.
Mrs. Pei couldn't help but find it funny, thinking that her old man, the real father-in-law, hasn't been so picky about these future son-in-laws, but her eldest son is very picky.
Look at her second son, it's much more interesting.
Her family's Erlang looked like he didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement, and he was obviously watching with great interest how his two future brother-in-laws would battle wits and courage in front of the relatives, friends and elders of the Pei family—oh, to be precise, How do they dig each other.
Mrs. Pei smiled. Well, in fact, she also has this kind of mentality. It is interesting to watch the excitement, so what are you doing seriously? Anyway, everyone is a family in the end, so why bother to embarrass these two young people at this time?
The only person present who was really unhappy was probably Xun Huan.
He never expected that Pei Shu's attitude towards Xiao Junji calling "father-in-law" would be so ambiguous.
So, Pei Xiangguo agrees with Xiao Junji's plan to get married?
Xun Huan frowned slightly, and there were thousands of horses galloping past in his heart, and the foul language was silently bursting into a basket.
The love rival doesn't talk about martial arts so much, so how can he play cards?
The future father-in-law obviously appreciates the behavior of the future "husband-in-law" into a matrilineal behavior. Does he have to go down the road of matrilineal marriage in the end?
No way, he can't accept such a shameless route!
Xun Huan was silently angry and sulking, and suddenly felt that it was an extremely wrong and extremely stupid decision for him to meet his future mother-in-law and father-in-law together with Xiao Junji today.
However, his sullenness quickly dissipated, because—
"Nephew Xun, you don't have to see me." Pei Shu is usually very serious, but this time he rarely showed an amiable side, and even his tone was very gentle and considerate, "The Xun family and my Pei family are family friends. You My father and I are also very good brothers, just call me 'Uncle Pei Shi'."
Uncle Pei Shi, this weight is much heavier than "Uncle Pei".
Xun Huan's mood lightened instantly, and he happily changed his words: "Your junior understands, Uncle Pei Shi."
Pei Shu was very happy about the junior's quick change of mouth.
He didn't have time to save Xun Xin, which has always been a deep pain and great regret in his heart.
Now looking at the orphan of this former good brother, Pei Shu really has the posture to treat his own son.
Of course, this "son" wants to be his son-in-law wholeheartedly, so he is naturally very happy to regard Xun Huan as his "son-in-law".
Anyway, "son-in-law" is equivalent to "son-in-law", and Pei Shu is very happy to have such a "son-in-law".
Xiao Junji was cursing in his heart.
He thought he had the upper hand, who would have thought that Xun Huan, a dead duck, would have picked up such a big deal in the dark!
Who knew that Pei Xiangguo had such a great affection for Xun Huan?
This kind of natural satisfaction is here, and he unconsciously took a big step behind.
Xiao Junji really hates it.
However, in front of all the relatives and friends of the Pei family, Xiao Junji still tried his best to maintain restraint. Although his complexion was a little bad, he quickly adjusted himself.
Perhaps Pei Yi was the most out of shape person in the audience.
From the moment Xiao Junji called out "father-in-law", she was in a daze.
To be honest, she can't understand the trend at all now.
She originally thought that her father and mother would reprimand Xiao Junji when they heard Xiao Junji's unrestrained speech.
Who would have thought that in the end it would be so lightly let go.
Her father was neither salty nor tasteless and even faintly encouraged Xiao Junji.
Her mother didn't say a word at all, full of indulgence.
The villain in Pei Yi's heart was about to turn up to the sky and cry in the storm.
Is she still their biological daughter?
Everyone else took advantage of her so directly, did her parents not object at all?
Oh, that's not the point.
The most frightening thing is that her father is obviously very satisfied with Xiao Junji, but at the same time, he is very satisfied with Xun Huan, as if he regards Xun Huan as his son-in-law.
Why, is her father planning to accept Xiao Junji and Xun Huan as sons-in-law at the same time?
My Sanqing Patriarch!
Not to mention how wild her father's mind is, just say that she herself is not capable of that, let alone dare to have that mind, okay?
This is a group of big bosses who kill people without blinking an eye. Who dares to let them both "marry" her? If such a humiliating thing really happened, I'm afraid her Pei family will be demolished by these big bosses!
When Pei Yi thought of the consequences, she couldn't help seeing a devastated scene before her eyes.
Her heart was beating wildly, her eyelids were also twitching, and she was not feeling well.
As the key person in this incident, Pei Yi finally couldn't bear it anymore and said: "What Dad said is very true, the Xun family and the Pei family are family friends, and our two families should not be born. I have grown up with Ah Huan for a few months. Just call him 'brother'."
Xiao Junji almost burst out laughing when he heard this, but luckily he suppressed it quickly by pursing his lips with his strong self-control, but the ever-rising corners of his lips still revealed his cheerful thoughts at the moment.
Xun Huan's eyes widened, with an unbelievable look—a pitiful look that was abandoned by his fiancé.
Pei Xuanzong, the eldest son of the Pei family, picked up a cup of hot tea and took a leisurely sip, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, his always cold face seemed to have returned to the earth.
Pei Xuanting just let out a "puchi" laugh, but after being glanced at by his father, he quickly pursed his lips to hold back the laugh, but his stomach was still trembling, and from time to time there was a "suppressed laugh" in his mouth. The sound of "Hang Chi" and "Hang Chi" is worse than just laughing out loud.
Mrs. Pei sighed faintly. It didn't look like she was feeling emotional, much less like blaming, but out-and-out—looking like she was watching a good show.
Pei Shu is really helpless. This is obviously an important occasion to see the son-in-law, why is his wife acting so foolishly? The two sons can no longer be counted on, so can't his wife be a little more supportive?
Mrs. Pei seemed to have heard her husband's heartfelt thoughts, and finally shook her fan lightly, and said dignifiedly: "There is no need to distinguish the Sanskrit sounds so clearly. How did you call A Huan before, is it okay to call it that way now? As long as A Huan Huan don't dislike it, you don't have to change your name to call him 'brother', right?"
Xun Huan's heartbroken heart felt warm, and he immediately said pitifully to Pei Yi, "Sanlang doesn't need to change his words, I think you have no problem calling me."
Pei Yi was choked and speechless.
Especially when she saw Xun Huan's pitiful little appearance, she suddenly had the illusion that she was bullying the children, which made her even more unable to firmly implement the change of mouth.
However, this group of men's behavior of trying to find a breakthrough from her father and mother should really be stopped.
Pei Yi had a headache and was helpless. After much deliberation, she could only say: "Naturally, my parents have to make decisions about the major events in my life. However, my parents have always paid the most attention to my personal wishes."
The implication is that as long as she doesn't agree, you guys won't be able to get along with anyone.
Pei Shu coughed resentfully, signaling his daughter not to be cruel.
Mrs. Pei didn't say anything. Although she has always supported that her daughter can have more servants, she also feels that it is really unnecessary for her daughter to marry a servant at such a time when she is out of luck.
After all, the more important it is to pay attention to self-coordination and family harmony.
If you suddenly take the road of marriage at such an opportunity, you may open the door to welcome back a group of big troubles.
Just like the two teenagers in front of her, none of them are fuel-efficient lamps.
If you only marry one, the other will definitely make trouble every day.
If both of them marry, I'm afraid the backyard of her family's Fanyin will make more noise.
In this way, Sanskrit wasted so much energy on the backyard, how could he have time to deal with other important things.
So, Mrs. Pei can be said to agree with both hands and feet to the girl's act of separating the relationship.
Pei Xuan glanced at the inscrutable expression on his mother's lord, and instantly understood it.
He didn't play charades, and directly pointed out: "Fanyin's words are actually quite good. Although marriage matters are ordered by parents and matchmakers, in our family, Sanskrit's opinion is the most important."
These words were like slapping Xiao Junji and Xun Huan in the face.
But the two men didn't dare to refute the words of the future brother-in-law, instead they could only smash their silver teeth and swallow them.
Xiao Junji smiled calmly, and said very generously: "Brother is right, Sanskrit's opinion is the most important."
Xun Huan also smiled brightly, his eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and he seemed to be convinced: "I really envy Sanskrit. It's great to be able to decide the marriage by yourself. I absolutely respect Sanskrit s Choice."
