Chapter 221: Mrs. Pei's wrath
"Master Pei doesn't have to worry about that. The names of the children have already been decided. The older sister is named Pei Weilai, and the younger brother is named Pei Weijue. As for the name that Master Pei has chosen, let's leave it to Pei Zitian. If it really doesn't work out, Master Pei and Aunt An can have another child if they are still strong and healthy."

When Mrs. Pei gets eccentric, no one can match her.

Jiang Shiyuan watched with his own eyes as Marshal Pei's face turned dark and full of anger, but for some reason he just couldn't flare up. He felt so happy in his heart.

This was even more true for Pei Ziyao who was standing next to her. Her mother and father had seldom met each other over the years, and even when they did meet, they could not exchange more than three sentences. It was indeed rare to see them bickering so fiercely. Naturally, she had more resentment towards her father than towards her mother, so when she heard her mother say this, she stood by with a look of anticipation, waiting to see how her father would explain.

Marshal Pei was naturally unwilling to be outdone. Although he could not bear to blame Mrs. Pei too much, he was always strict with his two children, Pei Zisu and Pei Ziyao. So when he glanced at the two of them, he released a powerful deterrent. The two had been training on the battlefield for many years and had seen all kinds of scenes.

If Master Pei's behavior was used against them when they were seven or eight years old, it might work. But how could they still be afraid of him when they are now seventeen or eighteen years old or even almost twenty years old?
So the two of them looked back, not willing to be outdone, neither humble nor arrogant, and even with a bit of fearlessness and hostility.

Marshal Pei had an indescribable feeling. He never thought that he was "raising a tiger to harm himself". The children were indeed well educated, but at the same time, there was no father-son or father-daughter relationship between them, so they did not take him seriously.

When he thought of this, Marshal Pei felt both angry and amused, so he sighed and then looked at Jiang Shiyuan.

"Is that what you mean? You want to keep the children in this shabby house and not go back to Hanzhou? I think you are really an incompetent mother and don't care about the children at all. You should know that they are the legitimate children of the eldest house of my Pei family. You should know how glorious they will be in the future. But now you let their grandmother, father and aunt do this. Even if you don't want to think about anything else, aren't you afraid that this matter will be heard by the nobles in Xijing City and let them do something to your family?"

General Pei's words made Jiang Shiyuan feel a little uneasy. He then looked at Pei Zisu, and after seeing that he was calm, his slightly restless heart relaxed. He glanced at General Pei and said.

"Don't worry about this, father-in-law. In a few days, it will be the big day for my brother to get married. We will take the children to the north to Xijing City. Whether we will return to Hanzhou at that time is still a matter of debate. My husband has responsibilities to fulfill in Hanzhou, but I am different from the children. We just hope to find a quiet place to raise the children safely and smoothly."

"You ignorant woman, the descendants of my Pei family were born to be heroes! How can they grow up in the hands of a woman? In my opinion, this daughter-in-law is really a bad choice. She should be married with a daughter of a general. In this case..."

"In this case, the Pei family will become even more of a thorn in the side of His Majesty. You, Marshal Pei, might even watch the Pei family perish under the imperial power, right? Is that what you want to say?"

Mrs. Pei's harsh words immediately left Master Pei speechless. Luoluo and Liuhua were very happy to hear Mrs. Pei's support for their young mistress. They stood beside the maids to help coax the two children, with their ears perked up. They wanted to hear what Teacher Pei was going to say next. "Are you really going to make this decision?"

"I will be buried in the Pei family for the rest of my life, and so will Zi Su and his three brothers. But my daughter-in-law and grandchildren are different. They have their own places to go, so why not let them go? Not everyone in the world is like Aunt An, who values ​​everything in your Pei family so much that she insists on marrying in. I have been fighting with her for decades, and the reason I refused to give in was to disgust her and you. As for how she wants to humble herself and serve you, that is a matter between the two of you and has nothing to do with me, but as long as I am alive, you can never think of becoming my daughter-in-law and the master of my two children."

Mrs. Pei sounded very confident when she said this. After all, she had been running the business for decades and it was no fake. So Marshal Pei couldn't help but be a little cautious when he heard this. Finally, he took a deep look at the people at the table. He felt that no one welcomed his arrival. Then he took out two exquisitely packaged longevity locks from his arms and threw them casually on the table, and then left the wooden house without saying a word.

He came and went in a hurry, but had a profound impact on everyone.

The family, which was originally so happy, could no longer eat their meal. Mrs. Pei stood up and glanced with a little disdain in the direction where Marshal Pei had left. If possible, she would rather hope that Marshal or herself would die soon, so that they would not have to keep pestering her.

"Forget it, we're almost done with today's meal. Aunt Wu, take the two children home to rest first. The three of you come to my room. I have something to tell you."

The people that Mrs. Pei's eyes were referring to were naturally Pei Zisu, Jiang Shiyuan and his wife, and Pei Ziyao. The three of them nodded, and then followed Mrs. Pei into the house. Mrs. Pei did not say any extra words. She glanced at the three of them, and finally set her eyes on Pei Zisu and spoke.

"I originally thought that I could let the mother and her two children stay here for as long as possible, but now that your father is here, it means that the news can no longer be concealed for much longer. By then, you will have to explain to Hanzhou and many people in Xijing City, so have you thought about how to deal with it?"

"Don't worry, mother. I have already reported this to the King of Han in secret. The prince has also prepared gifts for both children, but I didn't accept them because it was not convenient for me to show up. Now I am just going earlier. I will assign all the guards hiding around the wooden house to the mansion to protect the three of them. I just hope that mother will be more careful in the backyard when dealing with outsiders. After all, the mansion is quite far from the army, and I may not be able to get there in a short time."

Hearing this, Mrs. Pei nodded.

Although the appearance of Marshal Pei is annoying, what he said is not without reason. After all, these two children are descendants of the Pei family and will have to shoulder many things of the Pei family in the future. Therefore, it is impossible for them to hide for their whole lives. They have to go out into the storms and waves.
