Min Yuhan knew that this old fox was not easy to deal with, but since the other party was not in a hurry, he was even less anxious. Today, he was going to completely tear off the old man's face. He wanted to see how thick his skin was to be able to continue carrying out his original plan after tearing off a layer.
"Aristocratic families have their pride and have a very deep concept of family status. I don't need to remind Uncle of this. Uncle is probably clearer than anyone else."
He was clearer than anyone else and looked down on those people more than anyone else. Yet, he broke the rules himself and was so hypocritical.
"Has Uncle ever thought of the consequences of giving Pei Ying to Jin Qinwang as a concubine? If the most outstanding legitimate daughter of the main family can be given as a concubine, the other girls would naturally be even more despicable. Even if they wanted to marry back as a legitimate wife, they would feel that it was a disgrace to their own status. In this way, it would really be cats and dogs from all walks of life that could climb up Pei Shi's door. Pei Shi's men would naturally not be able to marry any good women. Even if they stood at a high position as you wished, could it make up for this? But I think Uncle will not care. After all, there are already signs of this. Who let Pei Shi's aristocratic family name exist only in name? The flourishing Pei Shi relied on in-laws to survive. If these in-laws knew, would they immediately divorce the woman and cut off all ties? Of course, the Pei family still has many famous scholars supporting them, and they have students all over the world. If they have high positions and generous salaries, they won't forget these teachers. However, if these people know about the actions of Uncle, the Pei family will probably collapse first without external help. "
It seemed that Pei Shi was weighing the pros and cons, but it was also Min Yuhan who did not hold back and continued to stab the knife. He did not leave any face for Pei Shi's girls. He peeled off the pretense of peace layer by layer and even threatened them.
Had Patriarch Pei not considered these problems? Of course not. So, in the early stages of the matter, he had to hide it internally and externally. Even if he helped Jin Qinwang, it was best to hide Pei Ying's matter. When the dust settled, it would not be too late to expose it. Pei Shi's "old-fashioned" people were not few, but there were only a few who were obsessed with learning and only liked to indulge in the mountains and rivers. After understanding Pei Shi's glorious history, who did not want to restore the glory of the past? So, even if they knew what he did, they would probably remain silent and look to the future.
However, man proposes, God disposes. Before he could even do anything, he had already been seen through. Clan Leader Pei, who had always been conceited, was actually quite angry in his heart.
Min Yuhan seemed to have seen through Clan Leader Pei's thoughts clearly. She sneered in her heart. He wasn't the only one who saw through your arrangements. The person you schemed against was even more clear about it. Although Min Yuhan wasn't clear about Li Hongyuan's true power, he had been traveling around Jiangnan for nearly a year without leaving a trace. However, at the crucial moment, there would always be someone who would appear at the right time to help him achieve his goal without attracting any attention. Min Yuhan had done this kind of thing before. In the beginning, he let them help to clean up the situation more, but later on, it gradually decreased. However, he did not doubt Li Hongyuan's ability.
He wanted to see if you used Jin Qinwang to achieve your goal or if you were used by Jin Qinwang until there was nothing left.
Although he and Li Hongyuan had only met twice, but that kind of power was so obvious. If he ascended the throne, he would definitely not tolerate a foreign relative. Pei Shi's calculations were so loud that he would not be lenient if he could use them. After using them, he might leave some leeway for you. Otherwise, he would be merciless to burn the bridge after crossing the river.
"Since Yuhan has already said so, this old man will not hide it. This is Pei Shi's matter and has nothing to do with outsiders. Yuhan does not need to worry."
"Uncle's meaning is that you are determined to do this?" Min Yuhan had never thought that he would affect this old thing's decision. If he was so easily swayed, he would not have come to this step today. His original intention was not to stop the other party.
"Yuhan has already pointed out Pei Shi's situation. Pei Shi cannot be defeated, so there are some things that must be done." Although he once deceived himself and did not want to admit it, but when it was really pointed out, it was not that he could not bear it. At least on the surface, there was no difference.
— — Falling into Jin Qinwang's hands, he was afraid that he would be defeated even faster. Perhaps it was not necessary, but it could be done in another way. If you were so ambitious and calculated, no one would be happy. If you were sincere and only focused on doing things, using Pei Shi's real strength to fight, perhaps you could achieve unexpected results. Instead, you tried to take shortcuts, rely on nepotism, and use such crooked methods.
"In this case, Uncle might as well change the candidate. At least she is of the same generation as Jin Qinwang, and it will look better on your face. If one of your granddaughters is not enough, then two. I remember that Uncle still has a pair of twin granddaughters who are not married yet. This is also a big feature. Maybe they will be more attractive. If two of them are not enough, then three. If not, then four. Anyway, you don't lack people in your line. "
This was in line with Jingwan's "lack of quality, make up for it with quantity".
However, this sarcasm had reached an extraordinary level. Even a saint could get angry. "Yuhan, there should be a limit to everything."
Min Yuhan smiled noncommittally. After a confrontation with this old thing, he had almost made up his mind to shed all pretense of cordiality between the two families. However, although his position in the Min family was not low, it was not good for him to decide the family's affairs. Now, the head of the Min family was his elder brother. Moreover, the Min family was not like the Pei family. There were many officials in the Min family, but there were no high positions. Instead, they were more like crops. Even so, the head of the Min family did not have the final say. As a member of the Min family, although he did not have deep feelings for this family, there were still some things that needed to be said. At that time, the difference would probably be him arguing with the Pei family alone, or the Min family arguing with the Pei family.
"In that case, nephew will take his leave first." Min Yuhan threw the chess piece between his fingers back into the chess box. He stood up slowly and brushed his sleeves. When he was about to leave, he seemed to have thought of something and looked at Pei Yuying, "Pei Yuying, why don't you consider my opinion."
Pei Yuying's face was a little stiff, "Thank you for Min family's Grand Uncle's favor."
Min Yuhan chuckled, "Now it's really interesting. A daughter of an aristocratic family would rather be a concubine than a wife. Speaking of which, if I was born poor and was just an ordinary person, it would be fine if you rejected me. If we were to compare Jin Qinwang and I, the advantage would probably be that the other party is young and powerful. Don't you know that this young man easily likes the new and hates the old and doesn't know how to dote on others? In the past, he was able to guard for your grandaunt. In the future, he will naturally be able to guard for you. Isn't it better than fighting for affection and scheming against each other? You really won't consider it? "
"Thank you for Min family's Grand Uncle's favor." Pei Yuying still said the same thing.
"This woman is really superficial. And you, Pei Yuying, can't even compare to one of your grandaunt's fingers. " His clothes fluttered as he left. He was elegant and had a bit of an immortal's aura. He did not seem like someone who would humiliate an unmarried girl so mercilessly.
However, this was indeed the case. How could he not see Pei Yuying's pale face?
Clan Head Pei looked at his back and slightly narrowed his eyes. He found that this former prospective son-in-law had completely exceeded his expectations. This kind of change was different from the previous one. It was definitely not formed overnight. However, he had been back for almost a year and had seen it many times, but he had not found any clues. He had been on guard since long ago!
Clan Head Pei was almost 100% sure that Min Yuhan might have found something.
"Great-grandfather …" Pei Yuying softly called out with a little worry.
Clan Head Pei turned to look at her, "Yuying, were you affected by your Min family's Grand Uncle's words?"
"It's impossible to say that it was not at all." After being humiliated like this, Pei Yuying was still a girl. It was not an exaggeration to say that she hated Min Yuhan. However, she knew that Great-grandfather was not asking about her personal feelings. Between a family and an individual, an individual would always be at the back. Even in the face of a great enemy, if it was beneficial to the family, she had to suppress her personal feelings, "I'm worried that Min family's Grand Uncle will spread the news. That would be very disadvantageous to our Pei family."
"Don't worry, he won't." He was very certain about this. "About Jin Qinwang …"
"Great-grandfather, you don't have to say anything more. Pei family carefully raised me. As a member of Pei family, when Pei family needs me, I will naturally not shirk my duty. As the saying goes, when the nest is overturned, there are no intact eggs. If something happens to Pei family, as a daughter of Pei family, how can I have a good ending? "
Clan Head Pei nodded his head in relief, "It's good that you understand. Go back and rest. "
"Yes, Yuying will take her leave."
After Pei Yuying left, Clan Head Pei lowered his head and looked at the chessboard. One black and one white chess piece fell one after another until the winner was decided. He took a sip of tea and slowly exhaled, "Ah Zhong, go and deal with the people." He seemed to be careless, but a sentence determined several lives.
Naturally, there would be people serving by the side. However, Clan Head Pei did not say anything from the beginning. Although the people were dismissed by the housekeeper called Ah Zhong, they were actually controlled after they left. If they knew something that they should not know, then even Pei Yuying's personal maidservant would not be able to survive.
Therefore, the biddy sent two more maidservants to Pei Yuying. Pei Yuying just nodded her head and continued to read her book.
