The Eldest Daughter of a Rural Family-Chapter 1167 - 268: Chastity Lessons_2

Pei Qian watched her in this way, relaxed and indifferent; she neither asked about the war nor about the state affairs, yet somehow this made Pei Qian feel ill at ease.

Pei Yuan thought it was rather good; now that the world was at peace, having the eldest sister-in-law handle affairs outside was sufficient. The eldest sister needed to take good care of herself at home.

A maid outside brought word that Mo Heng had returned.

Pei Qian’s spirits lifted immediately, and she stood at the ready.

Seeing her looking for Mo Heng to teach him another lesson in abstinence, Pei Qin almost felt a headache coming on.

Before she could speak, Pei Qian had already marched over with a cold face and said, "Eldest brother-in-law! I have important matters to ask you!"

Mo Heng had been busy from attending the morning court until almost evening before he found time to return home. Seeing her unfriendly gaze and Pei Qin signaling to him with her eyes, his gaze fell back on Pei Qian, "What matter?"

"It’s very important!" Pei Qian said and commanded Pei Qin to go out.

Although Pei Yuan also felt it was improper to be angry, resenting him for not cherishing the elder sister’s health, seeing Pei Qian blatantly berating the elder sister-in-law like this was infuriating, turning her face red with embarrassment. It would have been enough to talk to the elder sister and hint a few words to the elder brother-in-law about it. Third sister was...

Yet Pei Qian, undeterred, directly pulled Pei Qin and pushed her into the bedroom.

Considering Pei Qin’s background, though he had not believed the rumors after returning home from the street end yesterday and no one had mentioned it since, it was impossible for Pei Yuan and Pei Qian, who had grown up with the eldest sister, to know less than others. He sent Pei Qin back to her room and said to Pei Qian and Pei Yuan, "Call over Pei Wendong as well."

Huang Qiu hesitated for a moment, but at his command, she still had a young maid hurry to call Pei Wendong over.

Knowing he had returned from court and it was nearly time for dinner, Pei Wendong and Chang Yonglin were already on their way.

Pei Wendong was not a blood brother, and Chang Yonglin was raised by Qinqin, just like Pei Wendong and the sisters, so Mo Heng did not mind their presence, allowing the two to enter the room with Zhang Gengshan standing guard outside.

Pei Yuan was suddenly at a loss for how to react. With no elders at home, they should be happy for the affection between their sister and brother-in-law. A few subtle hints about indulgence should have sufficed. But the third sister insisted on taking on the role of an elder to admonish the brother-in-law. Meanwhile, the brother-in-law, unaware of the details, had even called for Wendong and Yonglin...

However, Pei Qian did not care. If he wanted to call them, then let him listen to himself, she immediately launched into admonishing and scolding Mo Heng, "What was going on yesterday? The elder sister was pulled back from the Gate of the Ghost, yet you still demanded water! At the hour of the rat! The elder sister looks solid, don’t you know about her condition? She still hasn’t recovered from the cold poison! With no elders in the house, no one to reprimand, you just act recklessly! Even if you’re young and vigorous, you should consider the elder sister’s health. Don’t you know indulgence harms the body!? The elder sister’s health is being hollowed out!"

Mo Heng thought she was always somewhat shrewd, sharp in judging people and situations. Perhaps she suspected Pei Qin’s background and wanted confirmation from him. But the last thing he expected was she would address his indulgent activities so candidly. Having gathered all the siblings together for this reprimand, he was momentarily stunned.

Pei Wendong and Chang Yonglin were shocked silent upon hearing this matter, seeing Pei Yuan with her face turning red, looking down, while Pei Qian went on and on, the two reflexively turned their heads to check the brother-in-law’s facial expression.

For the first time, Mo Heng faced such a scolding that stripped him of his dignity, and it was about matters of the bedroom, no less. Last night... he had indeed desired Qinqin, but he had not intended to tire her out; he simply wanted to hold her and watch her sleep peacefully. But Qinqin wanted him as well, desired him!

Seeing Pei Qian still speaking, Pei Yuan pulled her back, "That’s enough!" She had just rebuked the elder sister for a while, and now she was scolding the brother-in-law. If they truly needed no water, that would be a real concern! Besides, she had been scolding for ages, and the brother-in-law had not said a word. He surely felt humiliated. And they, the siblings, had all been watching.

Mo Heng spoke seriously and expressionlessly, "Your elder sister had a nightmare last night and broke into a sweat."

"Nonsense! The elder sister didn’t dream at all last night!" Pei Qian, seeing him still not admitting it, making up stories instead, grew even angrier, determined to give him a good scolding so he wouldn’t take the elder sister for granted and treat her like a tough guy! novelbuddy.cσ๓

Chang Yonglin exchanged a look with Pei Wendong, riddled with helplessness. This sister truly had the potential to be a formidable mother-in-law! In the future, whoever marries Yun Yun will surely suffer no small ordeal!

Pei Yuan, observing Mo Heng’s expression, suddenly believed him. The brother-in-law had always been very good to the elder sister. Even though there was no hope for the elder sister to have children, he never thought of taking a concubine. She glared at Pei Qian, signaling her to stop talking.

But Pei Qian was not ready to back down. The brother-in-law acted most upright and needed a good teaching so he would know better in the future, not to underestimate and regard the elder sister as sturdy, treating her like a tough man!
