instinctively lowered her head and sniffed, and then she also vomited, "Quick, open the window for ventilation, my goodness, it's only been a few days of sun, these eggs are too smelly!"The sense of...Mr. Wen remembered the commotion in Peng's courtyard just now and unconsciously rubbed his temples, "Don't mention it, it was like a pot of porridge!" He let out a soft sigh, not wanting to talk about the ugliness in his friend's family, but if he didn't say anything, the Li family would be difficult to deal with. 。"The concubine from the Peng family was alright when she first came in, but after giving birth to a child, she became ambitious and wanted to be in charge." 。Thus, the housekeeper who had followed Mr. Peng since childhood was drugged, and the housekeeper often fell ill. She took advantage of the situation to control the backyard. 。Treating her biological daughter superficially glamorous, but in reality harshly. 。"He even forged accounts and embezzled a considerable amount of money, taking it home to support his elder brother." 。Before, her family came over and seeing how good your business was, they got an idea. The concubine also wants her own family to live nearby but she hasn't found a chance yet. 。"The midwife happened to find that the maid and the legitimate daughter were moving around frequently, which caused this incident today. She wants to extort some benefits from your family, take over the business, and live closer to her relatives...""This is really..." The Li family members heard it in stunned silence 。Although they all knew that the wealthy families' backyards held many secrets, it was the first time they heard such detailed accounts, and they were incredibly surprised. 。A concubine, a mere half-master and half-servant, could actually cause so much trouble! "Didn't scholars say they should cultivate themselves, manage their families, govern the country, and pacify the world Mr. Peng is also a learned man, how come his household is in such disarray and he doesn't even know" The old lady shook her head, her admiration for scholars suddenly fading by three points. 。Mr. Wen also blushed and tried to defend his friend, saying: "Mr. Peng may not have paid much attention to the matters of the inner house before, but now he is aware of it." 。The child is still young and needs his mother, so the concubine is temporarily confined to the back yard. But all her maidservants have been sold, and she can no longer run amok. 。In a while, he will also marry an accomplished and virtuous woman as his main wife, and he will never again take concubines as wives. After all, it is truly important to be a match made in heaven. 。“Everyone nodded. The old woman then asked, “What about Mr. Peng How will he deal with Miss Peng” “This is even more troublesome!” Mr. Wen glanced at the anxious faces of the family members and said, “Over the past few years, the young lady has suffered a lot. Naturally, Mr. Peng wants to make amends, but her frequent interactions with outsiders is indeed a mistake. Therefore, she is confined to her room to copy scriptures as penance.” 。The old woman understood, Mr. Peng was waiting for the Li family to take a stand. 。Even if a woman has made a mistake, it is not appropriate for her to take the initiative to propose a marriage alliance and lower her status. 。Mr. Wen, no one knows our family affairs better than you. 。The eldest son's wife is selfish and cruel, and the second son's wife...needless to say, she stirs up trouble and makes the family uneasy. 。Therefore, getting married and choosing a wife is not only a major event for the boys in their lifetime, but also a major event for our whole family. 。Furthermore, Jiarong still has to study. Jiahuan's marriage is the first for the Li family's younger generation; it must be handled with utmost care regardless of the circumstances. 。Mr. Wen quickly nodded, "Auntie is right, this is what it should be. A virtuous wife brings good fortune to her husband, indeed we should take this seriously." 。"Alright, please wait a moment while I ask Jiayuan." 。"Auntie, you're too kind!" The old lady got up and took her grandson into the side room, leaving only the two of them. 。The old lady took her grandson's hand, her eyes reddening before a word was spoken. "Huáng'er," she said, "your second uncle is living alone now, and you've seen it with your own eyes..." 。Jia Ren and Jia Yi are so pitiful, you know. 。Choosing a wife is extremely important. You are only sixteen years old, still young, and you shouldn't be impulsive. 。"You and your grandmother tell the truth, are you a pitiful Peng girl, or do you truly like her You must marry her as your wife If you don't want to marry, don't worry about anything. Our family naturally has ways to compensate the Peng family, it won't affect your brothers studying" 。" Jia Huan knelt down, prostrating himself on his grandmother's lap and shedding tears. " 。He was never a troublemaker as a child, nor did he ever act spoiled with his grandmother. The only way he expressed filial piety was by helping his grandmother with chores. 。He actually thought Grandma liked his older brothers more, he didn't expect Grandma to protect him like this, even when he made such a big mistake she didn't scold or hit him, instead she comforted 。"Grandma, I was wrong. I shouldn't have gotten so close to Miss Peng, but Grandma, she really is a good girl." 。Don't look down on me just because I'm a cook, and encourage me to read more. In the future, I will open a big restaurant. 。She eats everything with such gusto, she loves anything I make. 。She is also skillful, and the braids she makes are very beautiful. 。She was kind-hearted, even though she herself was being exploited and mistreated, she still cared for her own little maidservant. 。Every time I sneak her snacks, she always keeps two pieces for herself... She…" Perhaps because she truly likes them, and is familiar enough, Jia Huan opened up and spoke a great deal, her eyes shining brighter than ever before. 。The old woman, looking at such a grandson, was truly happy and moved. 。A sixteen-year-old boy, at the cusp of first love, is completely consumed by thoughts of that girl. 。 Grandma said, "Don't worry, Grandma knows. Since my grandson likes her so much, she must be a good girl." 。But ah, Huan Ge'er, a betrothal isn't just about the two of you liking each other. It also depends on both families. Whether you two can actually make it work, Grandma can't guarantee that. 。"Tomorrow, grandma will visit the Peng family to see Miss Peng and hear what Mr. Peng has to request." 。After all, the Peng family is a scholarly family. Our Li family is simply not on the same level. You're not even a scholar yourself. This marriage won't be easy to arrange. 。" Jiā huān hǎo xiàng bèi jiāo le yī piào lěng shuǐ, fāng jì hái rè de nǎodù, tūrán jiù liáng le xiàlái 。Even without today's incident, it would be difficult enough for a cook like him to marry Miss Peng. What's more, in Mr. Peng's mind, he might already be labeled as someone trying to seduce Miss Peng. 。"Grandma..."Jiahuan wanted to say a few more words, but Li Laotai shook her head. "We can only do our best, the rest is up to God." 。Mr. Wen heard that the old woman was going to visit the Peng family tomorrow, so he got up and said he would go back to the academy again. 。The old woman stopped him and said, “Yesterday the Yan family came to the village and made a big scene, almost getting Big Yong’s wife killed. Fu Niu was angry and took out the imperial decree ” 。Now that Fu Niang has been granted the title of Kangle County Princess and has lands, I'm afraid even the capital knows about it. 。So, tomorrow I will take Funiu'er with me to the Peng family. 。Mr. Wen was taken aback for a moment, then smiled, “Okay, Auntie, I understand” 。The Li family may not be a scholarly family, but now they are also nouveau riche. It's not a disgrace for the grandson of the Li family to marry the daughter of the Peng family! Soon after, Mr. Wen entered the academy and came out after a while. 。Mr. Peng heard that the Li family was coming to visit, and his exact words were, "We're all looking forward to your visit!"Mr. Wen felt relieved and hurried back to Kyoto. 。On one side is the Li family, on the other his friend, he's caught in the middle, he's already done everything he could, what remains is a matter between the Li and Peng families. 。Li Laotai and Li Laosan, husband and wife, were extremely taciturn. Neither of them told Jiahuan about sealing Funu as a princess. 。Jia Huan spent the whole afternoon working quietly. 。 She was worried that her mother-in-law might be mistreated at the Peng family, and also worried that her beloved daughter would be punished. She was most concerned that the Peng family wouldn't approve of the marriage. 。The poor kid, he's really suffering inside...rrogant and urged loudly, "Gentlemen, let's just announce the results!"Mr. Mo Mei glanced at him, his eyes full of schadenfreude, and declared loudly, "I announce that Li Family's steward wins!"Everyo...
