Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife

Chapter 343: New Grudge, Old Hate

Min Yu Han helplessly laughed, “The Min clan and the Pei clan’s relationship is a little too tight. This kind of close relationship originally was fine, but some people’s brains aren’t too clear, acting according to their own assumptions, believing themselves to be holding the pearl of wisdom, but in reality, just looking for death. As such, for the Min clan, there isn’t the slightest bit of good.”

That’s right, in Min Yu Han’s eyes, the Pei clan leader’s greatest mistake was just relying on the assumptions based on the common characteristics of men, perhaps also including that bit of understanding towards Jin Qinwang’s superficial surface, and just carried out his schemes and arrangements. All say ‘only by knowing yourself and knowing your enemy, can one then come out unscathed through a hundred battles’. The Pei clan leader perhaps believed knowing oneself was the same as knowing others. In reality, never mind knowing others, he probably didn’t even have a complete understanding towards himself either. After all, for people that were too conceited, even if wrong, they still wouldn’t look for the cause on themselves.

Min Xiao Yuan saw Min Yu Han’s smile for the first time, and was truly stunned. Even at this current age, he was still this handsome and elegant, then when he was younger, certainly must have been especially good-looking too. Really want to see that woman that made him, to this day, still not take a wife and not leave children. Unfortunately, it was completely impossible to meet the person. “So, great-uncle going to the Pei clan to propose marriage, was purely just to pick a fight?”

Min Yu Han slightly blanked, and afterwards, carried a bit of helplessness, “In essence, saying this also isn’t a problem, but you can be a bit more tactful.” Don’t blindly blurt out the truth!

Min Xiao Yuan mischievously covered her mouth, expressing that she’ll shut up, even blinking her eyes at Min Yu Han.

Min Yu Han laughed again. Facing such a pure child, not needing to take twists and turns when speaking, also not needing to have too many misgivings, and even if saying something wrong, it didn’t matter either, one’s heart and body naturally all relaxed. Just, “You and Pei Xiu Ying have a good relationship, and you’re also someone that usually values friendship………..”

“I know what great-uncle wants to say. Great-uncle don’t need to worry. My relationship with big sister Xiu Ying actually isn’t as good as everyone thinks. Big sister Xiu Ying, this person, appears to be very gentle, and towards the people she’s friends with, also very good, but I feel, in her bones, she’s actually very cold and indifferent. Shouldn’t true close friends of the boudoir not keep anything from one another, willing to tell the other party anything? However, she isn’t like this. She has never told me her personal matters before. She seemingly would never be unhappy, and never express her dislike towards anyone, but as people, all would have seven emotions and six desires^[1], certainly all having love and hate, happiness and anger. Just like what you said just now, that pair of twin sister paternal aunts of hers genuinely didn’t get along with her, frequently bothering her. But in private, she has never said a single bad thing about them, is this normal? If switch with me, it certainly would be impossible. The reason why, in an outsider’s eye, our friendship is pretty good was purely because, I feel, she didn’t do anything to me, so naturally just peacefully got along. Moreover, by being together with her, I can even avoid some people that I don’t want to see. Although I might also have less friends, but you win some, you lose some, no? The most troublesome matter was probably just my older brother. He always ask me about big sister Xiu Ying’s matter, but I simply just don’t know. Afterwards, just using the excuse of ‘can’t damage big sister Xiu Ying’s pure reputation’, I would angrily have him driven away. Every time it would always make one very helpless, yet big brother would still persist.” Min Xiao Yuan’s little face wrinkled into a lump.

Min Yu Han smiled, but if it’s just this, then naturally it was good.

Min Yu Han directly had the person kept behind to chat with him. Actually, thinking back to it, it was still quite unfair. He, a darn old man, restraining a little girl, and although girls of large influential families all emphasize on being reserved and virtuous, but in the end, she was still young, so certainly further liked playing with people of the same age. However, Min Xiao Yuan was a clever and filial child, and didn’t really get annoyed. On the contrary, she quite liked listening to Min Yu Han talk about his travel experiences in the past.

Midway, a servant boy that served Min Yu Han came in, whispering a few words by Min Yu Han’s ear. Min Yu Han didn’t express anything, just waving his hand to let him leave.

“Does great-uncle have something to attend to?” Min Xiao Yuan asked.

“Not really.” Min Yu Han continued telling her ‘stories’.

In reality, when he’d let someone call Min Xiao Yuan over, he’d specially attracted her older brother’s attention, and just as expected, her brother had followed over. Because he’d intentionally ordered away the people guarding the courtyard gate, the other party naturally just easily entered. Afterwards, his conversation with Yuan Yuan, the other party naturally all heard. Min Yu Han wanted to give him a hand, letting him not be this obstinate in going the wrong way, but he also knew, feelings, this kind of thing, wasn’t something that can be severed that easily. Some times, the more one blocked, the more stubborn the other would become instead.

However, if clearly knowing what kind of person the other party was and still unwilling to turn back, even doing something that will harm the family clan, then even if Min Yu Han can understand that kind of feeling, he still won’t indulge him. Of course, it wasn’t really for the sake of the family clan, but rather Jin Qinwang.

The Min clan has leaned towards Jin Qinwang, yet Jin Qinwang wants to sort out the Pei clan, so in between, what one should do, one simple didn’t need to think.

Just unfortunately, that grandnephew, as expected, was still too muddled. He’d just heard a bit from here, and immediately just headed to the Pei clan residence. However, if Pei Xiu Ying doesn’t want to immediately became an abandoned chess piece, then at this time, certainly will spare no effort in serving her great-grandmother. However, this also isn’t easy. After all, the other few were aware that she really wasn’t genuinely cupped in the palm by the Pei clan leader, so naturally won’t be polite with her anymore. Old grudges and new hate all piling together, Pei Xiu Ying’s following days will be very difficult, and most likely won’t have the energy to deal with outsiders.

Towards this kind of person that can implicate the entire family, the best way was to just have him dragged back and locked up. If the manor in Chuanzhou Fu is unable to contain him, then just send back to the Min County main residence. However, right now, there was no hurry. Once he runs into a wall, he naturally will just come back, no need to have that big of a disturbance.

In reality, it was just as Min Yu Han had predicted. That older brother of Yuan Yuan’s was destined to be miserable. Pei Xiu Ying didn’t even bother to meet him. Pei Xiu Ying was very clear, based on her current situation, to want to look for a relatively good way out, this admirer of hers definitely wasn’t within the scope of consideration, because she was very clear what kind of state the other party was in in the Min clan. To put it bluntly, he was just a young master that completely relied on the family. Regardless of how he bounces around, in the end, the one to make the decision was just his family’s elders. If she was still perfectly fine, then perhaps there was still a possibility. But now, without the ability to give birth, no matter how treasured she was in the past, now she was all just a blade of grass, especially given that the people of the Min clan also knew about this matter.

Regardless of how frantic she was inside, and regardless of how much she hated, she nevertheless knew that she absolutely can’t mess up her steps.

Speaking of which, if it’s just losing the ability to give birth, then prior to the other influential families finding out, based on her reputation outside, finding a good marriage arrangement definitely wasn’t a problem. The problem right now was Jin Qinwang wants to deal with the Pei clan, severing the Pei clan’s roots. And more importantly, they still didn’t have a way to have this news sent back to the main residence.

Right now, she was standing outside her great-grandmother’s room, simply unable to enter the door, not knowing what the situation was like. In reality, it was indeed quite bad, because it was already not just one doctor coming, and every single one previously all left very quickly, just saying one line: ‘Prepare the funeral arrangements’.

They were all Chuanzhou Fu’s relatively well-known doctors. Although they didn’t know the Pei clan leader madam’s identity, they still knew this was the Pei clan’s residence. Towards this kind of family, ordinary people naturally couldn’t afford to offend, and the doctors afterwards that had received news directly just hid themselves. There was no doctor that was willing to come visit.

After sending away the last doctor, the twin sisters directly walked up to Pei Xiu Ying, loudly fanning a slap over, “Slut!”

Pei Xiu Ying, from childhood to now, has never gotten a single finger laid on her before, so in this moment, she naturally was unable to maintain her usual bearing, covering her face in disbelief, also carrying hatred, “You dare to hit me?”

Another slap flew over, “So what if it’s hitting you? If not for you going crazy and wanting to climb onto the dragon would things have ended up like this? Would it have angered Jin Qinwang to the point of implicating our entire Pei clan? A dignified Pei clan main family’s di branch di-born young lady actually willingly recommended herself as a pillow, willing to become a concubine, and the other party was even the blood-related biao uncle? To self-willingly be lowly to this degree, embarrassing the entire family clan, one slap is still light.” Another slap landed.

Pei Xiu Ying rather wanted to resist, but as the saying goes, two hands couldn’t rival four. In addition to the other three girls, sorting her out was something that couldn’t be more simple.

Only the crisp slapping sound and Pei Xiu Ying’s sharp screams could be heard. There wasn’t even the opportunity to curse.

The people serving her rather wanted to help out, but the other servants with their own masters also won’t just watch with folded arms, naturally immediately charging forward. Since the master had grudges, the people below naturally had grudges too. For a moment, the scene was extremely chaotic.

Just, the Pei clan leader madam was still in the room and unconscious. How ironic!
