I was the best old lady in ancient times

Chapter 236
Hearing this voice, Pei Yan frowned indiscernibly.

Then he went to open the door and looked at Pei Yunxia who was already in the form of a girl in front of him.

I saw that she was holding a basket in her hand, which should be wild vegetables dug in the morning.

"Second Uncle, this is the wild vegetable I dug.

You are alone, and you don't know how to cook, why don't I cook for you! "

Seeing Pei Yan coming to open the door, Pei Yunxia's eyes lit up with joy, and she stepped forward and said familiarly.

"No, I've already eaten.

It's not easy for your family, so don't send things to me in the future! "

Pei Yan replied coldly.

Today, Pei Yunxia is 13 years old. When she was ten years old, she was exiled to the north with her mother. Along the way, how much she resented her second uncle, and Pei Yan was not blind and deaf.

But for some reason, a few months ago, this niece showed affection to him inexplicably.

This made Pei Yan a little puzzled, but he didn't get the name of a fox for nothing.

He quietly rejected all overtures to this niece, and did not allow Pei Yunxia the slightest chance to get close.

Seeing Pei Yan's refusal, Pei Yunxia immediately became anxious and wanted to say something more.

But after Pei Yan said these words, he bang and closed the courtyard door.

Pei Yunxia was almost slapped on the face, which made her frightened and angry.

If she hadn't thought about the future, she would have kicked the broken door to pieces.

Suppressing her anger, she knocked on the door repeatedly, but Pei Yan was in the yard and insisted on ignoring her.

It only made Pei Yunxia's hand red, but he didn't come out.

She could only leave resentfully, and when she returned home, she couldn't help feeling sad when she saw the bare walls of the house and the thatched hut above her head.

Thinking that she was obviously the daughter of the prime minister's mansion before, but now she has ended up like this.

Pei Yunxia was very unwilling, she must go back to the capital again.

That glory and wealth should belong to her.

"Cough cough... cough cough... Yun Xia, are you back?"

I saw Shen Shi, who was dressed in shabby clothes, came out of the house, looking indifferently at her angry daughter.

This daughter has been very stubborn since she was a child.

After arriving in the north, I also felt sad because of the loss of my husband and glory and wealth.

But after a long time, she has a son and a daughter, so she has no time to immerse herself in the past.

However, when she thought of her husband's death but Pei Yan was still alive, she couldn't help feeling resentful.

Especially since she was Madam Shen's cousin and niece, she was not clear about how much Madam Shen resented Pei Yan when she was serving Madam Shen in the mansion.

Therefore, I don't have a good impression of Pei Yan at all.

When they arrived in the north, even though Pei Yan said on the way, he would take good care of their mother and child instead of his elder brother.

But Shen Shi was not willing to accept his love at all, and she threw out the things that she sent several times.

After a long time, Pei Yan naturally knew what sister-in-law meant.

Therefore, I never asked myself to be bored again.

However, secretly, he never stopped taking care of Pei Yi.

It's just that Pei Yan came secretly for all of this, and didn't let the three of them know.

As for Mrs. Shen, who are orphans and widows, it is not so easy to support themselves.

Shen can only pick up the little needlework she learned when she was young, embroider some handkerchiefs and the like, and take them to the city to exchange for some copper coins, struggling to survive.

In fact, if Pei Yan hadn't sent someone to protect her from behind, how could the shopkeeper of the embroidery shop appreciate her embroidery skills!
It's been three years since I've been here, and Pei Yi is already 12 years old, he's a big boy.

Originally, my precious son was very good at studying in the mansion, but now that he has become a criminal minister, he has long since cut off the road to the imperial examination.

I can only work in the fields, and when I am free, I go to the mountain to hunt some game to improve my family's life.

Thinking of her son becoming this farmer and hunter now, Shen's heart feels as painful as a knife.

And her daughter has not been very close to herself, and she is now 14 years old.

Shen Shi wondered if she should look after her, get married early, get a bride price, and save some money for Yi'er when the time comes.

Pei Yunxia was originally annoyed, but when she heard her mother's question, she just hummed casually, then threw the basket in her hand on the table, sat down, poured a glass of water, and gulped it down.

After drinking it, although it quenched his thirst, Pei Yunxia looked at the rough ceramic cup in his hand with disgust.

Then she didn't know what to think, and raised her eyes to look at Shen, but her eyes were full of hatred.

Shen is not an unconscious person, seeing her daughter looking at her, she raised her eyelids to look at her. Although Pei Yunxia lowered her eyes quickly, she could still vaguely see the hatred in Pei Yunxia's eyes.

This hatred stunned Shen, and she naturally believed that although she was not very close to this daughter, she had never abused her.

Compared with the people around the village today, Pei Yunxia's life is considered easy.

In addition to digging wild vegetables and doing laundry and cooking at home, it is to learn embroidery from my own mother.

But these are some housework that must be taken care of in order to get married in the future.

After all, now his family is no longer a high-profile prime minister's mansion, and there is no one to serve him.

Therefore, Shen felt that she must have made a mistake.

However, she couldn't help but frowned at Pei Yunxia's vulgar behavior of throwing the basket on the table just now.

"You look like this, how will you marry in the future?

Women, be submissive. "

Shen put the basket of wild vegetables on the table on the ground, sat down, covered her mouth and coughed twice.

"Yun Xia, you are fourteen now, mother is your age, and your grandmother is already helping me choose a good son-in-law.

So, mother thought, let the matchmaker help you to search and find out, and make an appointment as soon as possible, which is also a matter of concern in my heart. "

Hearing Shen's words, Pei Yunxia, ​​who originally wanted to hold back her anger, suddenly stood up and shouted in a sharp voice.

"I don't want to marry. If you force me, I'll have my hair twisted and become my sister-in-law."

After speaking, he ran out of the house.

Her fierce reaction made Shen shi involuntarily stunned, and then her heart surged with anger, shaking her whole body with anger.

What an unfilial daughter, I was just discussing with her, but she would show her face like this to her mother, it's really against the sky!

Since ancient times, the marriage of children has been the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker. Could it be that she, Pei Yunxia, ​​still wants to surpass herself as a mother-in-law, and see her by herself?

"Mom, what's the matter, big sister?"

Pei Yi, who had just hunted a hare, came down from the mountain, and before he could say that he was back, he saw his elder sister covering her face from the house, crying and running out quickly, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

He raised the hare in his hand and wanted to tell his elder sister that there was meat to eat today, but he didn't have time to say it.
