The Eldest Daughter of a Rural Family-Chapter 1214 - 281: Great Joy and Celebration
Chapter 1214: Chapter 281: Great Joy and Celebration
Xie Yi’s pregnancy and entry into Tiance Mansion as a concubine spread like a hurricane throughout Capital Jingcheng in the blink of an eye. Some people were eager to go to the Manufacturing Bureau to find Pei Qin, demanding that Pei Qin drive out a vixen like Xie Yi, "Disgusting to look upon, her character low and licentious, devious and malevolent! She came here carrying an illegitimate child to snatch away property and titles! You absolutely can’t keep that kind of trash in the house! Otherwise, she will harm General Pei!"
"Heaven’s sins are forgivable, self-inflicted ones are not." Pei Qin reassured them, urging them not to get too agitated.
"General! you should have the Emperor post a royal notice! Search the whole country for a Divine Doctor! Famous doctors! They will definitely be able to cure you! Those vixen types, daring to plot against you, will surely be struck down by lightning!" Several young girls, who had previously adored Pei Qin, couldn’t help but burst into tears.
"Why are you crying! Don’t be so fragile! The sky isn’t falling! It’s just a minor underling, even if she really is pregnant, the worst I’ll do is glare at them, and then I will still be your national husband when I come back!" Pei Qin pulled off a few of their handkerchiefs and handed them back to the girls, "Wipe your own tears, crying has made you ugly!"
"But that cheap woman is taking advantage of your current poor health to do evil in Tiance Mansion! She will definitely harm you!" Several people cried out.
"Are you saying that so many people around me can’t stop her!? Besides, I don’t even see her, how can she harm me!" Pei Qin chuckled.
"She’s already entered the mansion, she will definitely find opportunities to harm you, General!" the few girls worried exceedingly, "Seeing Xie Yi’s behavior of returning kindness with ingratitude, coveting wealth and status, she must definitely be a scheming vixen! She’ll definitely bring harm!"
Pei Qin rubbed his chin and nodded, "Hmm! Maybe I should just move and stay at the Manufacturing Bureau! After all, it’s big here, barely enough to accommodate!"
A group of girls began to suggest ideas, adopting a child, appointing an adopted son from a brother or sister’s family, or taking in an orphan from the outside, raising them from a young age. Some even went so far as to wish that Mo Heng would also be barren! But they did not dare to voice this wish because Mo Heng was nearby, waiting for Pei Qin, watching them.
Pei Qin chatted with them for a long while before finally managing to soothe them, letting them each go home, "Feels like I’ve gained a bunch of girlfriends!"
Mo Heng came over to lead her, "Let’s go home."
"Not jealous! Not angry! Feeling guilty!?" Pei Qin looked at him.
Mo Heng glanced at her, "Isn’t it you who said, to keep up appearances in front of others!?"
"That’s what I said, but old habits die hard!" Pei Qin muttered under her breath.
"You know it best." Mo Heng tightened his grip on her hand and led her home.
At home, in the main hall, it was filled with people, including Jiujiu and several Little Radishes, along with Zhao Xiao Chen and Fang Liuyang from West Mountain Camp, even Xiao Yong was in attendance.
"What’s this? Starting a family meeting!?" Pei Qin asked.
Everyone looked at her, suddenly speechless. Besides Pei Wendong, all of them felt Xie Yi was unsuitable but hadn’t dealt with them earlier, allowing her to go on unchecked until today, now turning to falsely accuse and plot against the eldest sister-in-law!
Seeing them all like this, Pei Qin strode forward, "Xie Yi’s matter isn’t really an issue, as long as her life is preserved, see what she delivers then the truth will come out naturally! You needn’t think too much, just continue with whatever you were doing!"
"Eldest sister..." Pei Yuan grabbed her, she also wanted to silently remove the malignant tumor that was Xie Yi!
"Just with her alone she can’t possibly escape, and certainly not spontaneously become pregnant! You all know there are people behind this! And you should well understand the intentions of those behind her!" Pei Qin wouldn’t let the smallest offense go unnoticed, but to her, Xie Yi wasn’t even as significant as a spec of sand, merely considered a lump thrown into the yard.
"Vile creatures less worthy than pigs and dogs! Saving them back then wasn’t even as good as saving a dog! Not even worthy of dog excrement!" Pei Qian ground her teeth with fury.
"If it’s such excrement, there’s bound to be a dog that will come and eat it!" Pei Qin finished, looking towards Pei Wendong and Chang Yonglin, "Proceed with the plan as intended, don’t fuss over it, just wait until after the palace exam, one honestly gets a wife, the other seriously proposes!"
Pei Wendong clenched his fists hard, his face bearing a few suspicious red marks, as if they were from a slap.
Pei Qin took a closer look at his face, "Did you do that to yourself?"
Pei Wendong’s eyes reddened, "It’s all my fault, I’m not worth living, for causing all this trouble for my eldest sister!"
"Hmm! If you died, then these ten years would have been in vain for me!" Pei Qin’s expression darkened.
"Eldest sister..." Pei Wendong looked at her, his eyes still red.
"Earn a top scholar title to repay me! Otherwise, from now on, you won’t need to call me ’eldest sister’ again!" Pei Qin stated sternly.
