Chapter 167 Aunt An comforts the master
Marshal Pei had thought about the situation where his son and daughter-in-law would come back to see him many times, but he had never thought it would be like this. The person next to him handed over the tea, and Pei Zisu and Jiang Shiyuan took it, knelt down in front of Marshal Pei, and then said.

"Dad, please have some tea."

"Father, please have some tea."

After taking the tea from his son, Marshal Pei just took a sip, but he just looked at the cup of tea in Jiang Shiyuan's hand and didn't intend to take it. In the end, it was Aunt An who spoke up to ease the awkwardness of the situation and said something gently to Marshal Pei.

"Master, you should drink this tea. I like the young lady from the Jiang family. I heard that she is not in good health. If you want to have a chance, you should stay in Hanzhou. You need to take good care of yourself."

It's called conditioning, but in fact, isn't it just that they want to use her name to find the female doctor Mu Shao again?

What was Aunt An planning? Pei Zisu knew it clearly. Thinking of the sickly second sister at home, Pei Zisu showed an arrogant look.

After living with Pei Zisu for so many years, the aunt had long been accustomed to their disgusted and rejecting looks towards her, so she just smiled and looked at them.

Jiang Shiyuan has experienced two lives and feels that those he met before were all minor characters. People like Aunt An appear to be gentle in nature, but in fact they know what they want better than anyone else. Therefore, they don't care about these dispensable things at all, such as the respect of other children.

Even though they hadn't said a word to Aunt An since they entered the door, she didn't show any bad attitude.

Jiang Shiyuan admired him for this. Marshal Pei was not very willing, but he still took the cup of tea from Jiang Shiyuan's hand, took a sip, and finally gave him the red envelope according to etiquette. However, he gave up the idea of ​​inviting a few people to his home for dinner, and stood up and said to Aunt An.

"I am tired. Please help me downstairs to rest. If they want to stay at home for dinner, they can have it. If not, they can leave."

Over the years, there has never been much affection between father and son and father and daughter, so the three of them never expected to get anything from their father.

So after Marshal Pei and Aunt An left, Pei Ziyao made a suggestion.

"Why don't we take my sister-in-law to try some authentic Hanzhou food? Let's go to the east of the city. I think the food on the stalls there is more delicious than in the restaurants. I just don't know if my sister-in-law will be uncomfortable with it."

They were used to going out, so they didn't mind the food that much. Instead, they thought the food from street vendors tasted better. But in Jiang Shiyuan's case, she probably never ate out. Even if she did, she would go to luxurious restaurants to enjoy delicious food. That's why Pei Ziyao spoke like that.

As a result, Jiang Shiyuan nodded with interest, and then said with a smile.

"I'm not that delicate. Now that I'm in Hanzhou, I naturally want to try the authentic food you mentioned. Is it too late for us to leave now?"

"It's still in time, it's still in time! Hanzhou is also a city that never sleeps. Although it can't be compared with the prosperity of Xijing City, we can still gather here all night long. Besides, it's dinner time now. Sister-in-law can try everything, but don't eat too much." The aunt and sister-in-law looked at each other and smiled.

Pei Ziyao likes this kind of sister-in-law who is not pretentious, and Jiang Shiyuan also likes this kind of sister-in-law who speaks her mind, so the two get along very happily. Pei Zisu and Pei Zimiao don't care about these nonsense, so they speak as soon as they open their mouths.

"Since you all want to go, let's go."

After leaving the Pei family's old house, the four of them had no reluctance to leave.

Aunt An in the yard served Master Pei and started eating. After adding a few bites of his favorite dishes, she pretended to be generous and virtuous and asked a question.

"The young couple has just gotten married, why does the master need to go in front of others and say those words at this time? Don't you think the relationship between father and son will become strained again? Zi Su originally had many dissatisfactions and misunderstandings about us, and now even his wife has turned away from us. If the master wants to manage the household in the future, won't it cause trouble for himself?"

Marshal Pei didn't think so. He always had a good appetite and wouldn't lose his appetite because of anything. So after taking a few mouthfuls of rice, he said calmly.

"Even if I spoke to them in a nice way today, what impression could I change in their minds? So don't struggle in vain. Zi Su will inherit the Pei family in the future, and there are those difficult relatives. Do you think they will be easier to talk to than me? That's why I wanted to give it a try. Who knew that his wife looked uneducated, but had a stubborn temper. Besides Zi Su, the only one who dared to contradict me in person was his wife. When I'm gone in the future, I'm afraid you'll suffer a lot, so it's better not to provoke them now."

Marshal Pei is not the kind of person who values ​​love so much that he doesn’t distinguish right from wrong.

In his eyes, it was true that he loved Aunt An deeply, but it was also true that he had carefully educated Pei Zisu. It was just that he did not give much fatherly love, and more often than not, he put a lot of thought into planning Pei Zisu's future.

Pei Zisu knew this in his heart, so he would contradict his father, but he would still listen to his father's opinions on some major decisions.

"My Lord, you are talking nonsense again. If one day you are gone, I will be here right away. I will not live alone. Anyway, the children are grown up. As long as we choose the right people around them, it will be fine. I don't want to be disliked by others. I have made up my mind to follow my Lord for the rest of my life. I am willing to live or die."

Aunt An has no other relatives in this world except her two children.

So she was truly free of worries, and when she said this, Pei Laoshuai believed it, so he raised his hand and touched her cheek. Although it was no longer as tender as when she was young, he could still see her sincerity towards him after so many years, so he opened his mouth and said to Aunt An.

"I've wronged you for following me. I couldn't give you the position that should have been given to you, nor could I give it to Tian'er and Xing'er. You and your two children had to endure a lot of cold stares. Now you are in charge of the family, but I still feel indebted. I have lived my life without regrets to the heavens and the earth, and without regrets to Dasui. The only thing is that everyone in the mansion has been deeply hurt by me, both you and her."

The "she" that Marshal Pei was referring to was naturally Mrs. Pei.
