The Eldest Daughter of a Rural Family-Chapter 1127 - 257: Eldest Brother-in-law’s Deep Pit_3

Pei Wendong touched the injured area, the pain was searing, and judging by Princess Xi Yun’s complexion, it couldn’t have been any worse. His brother-in-law had pushed him out to repay debts, and it was his own fault for not avoiding and bumping into her. But when a slap came his way, they also whipped his face a few times, "As a Commandery Princess, you don’t have a shred of the gentleness and grace expected of one! You are simply..."

"Who says I don’t have gentleness and grace! Dare you say what I am?" Princess Xi Yun glared at him furiously.

Pei Wendong didn’t directly state it, merely scoffed. This Princess Xi Yun, when facing his elder sister, seemed elegant, noble, and virtuous, but it was all a façade!

Mo Heng, seeing that she had stopped, stepped forward with Xixi in his arms, "Princess Xi Yun! I owe you one, and here I’ve repaid it! Whether you want it or not is your business!" freēwēbnovel.com

Pei Wendong saw Mo Heng meant business and started to panic, "Brother-in-law! What about Xie Yi? No matter what, I have to take responsibility for her!" Princess Xi Yun had a noble status, and the Deposed Prince was in a sensitive and awkward position. Even without Xie Yi, how could he marry the daughter of the Deposed Prince? Besides, this Princess Xi Yun was simply... Never mind, let’s not talk about it!

When Princess Xi Yun heard he had another to take responsibility for, one he disdained before she could even ask, she clutched her whip, wishing she could lash him a few more times and disfigure his face!

Mo Heng looked at Princess Xi Yun, "A returned item is also an option for the Princess. It’s merely a tarnish on your reputation. Anyway, it was an accident."

What did he mean by a mere tarnish on reputation! What did he mean by accident! With those words spoken, Pei Wendong simply had to take responsibility!

Princess Xi Yun was also brimming with rage, "Mo Heng! Well done!" After grinding her teeth for quite some time, she spat out a harsh sentence, "Pei Hansan, I will definitely snatch him from you!"

Watching her storm off furiously with her entourage, the house finally quieted down.

Everyone exchanged glances, all turning toward that one person with a nonchalant face. That was no accident! It was clear he had done it on purpose! To put it bluntly, he had deliberately tarnished Princess Xi Yun’s reputation! If Pei Wendong dared not take responsibility, the Prince of An Ping wouldn’t just have his arm disabled; even if he were disabled all over, he definitely wouldn’t let Pei Wendong off!

"A sister’s debts are a brother’s to pay," Mo Heng said indifferently, taking his daughter back to the room.

Chang Yonglin sympathetically patted him on the shoulder, "A sister is like a mother! Can you really bear to watch your elder sister be snatched by a woman and suffer this humiliation?" He thought it was quite good! At least Princess Xi Yun didn’t seem simple-minded, but she wasn’t vicious or scheming either; he found her quite to his liking.

Pei Wendong’s face turned green. What elder sister is like a mother; sister’s debts brother repays! His brother-in-law was obviously... scheming against him!

Yet Pei Qian thought it was great, not even having time to put down the cleaver she used for chopping meat, she strode over, "Wendong! You’ve shared intimate contact with Princess Xi Yun, if you don’t take responsibility for her, are you willing to let a Commandery Princess be disgraced and unable to marry out? This is your responsibility to bear!" She might have been fierce, but the elder sister could be very fierce too. And being fierce was even better! With her status and position, she could suppress that shameless wretch Xie Yi! She couldn’t stand Xie Yi! Princess Xi Yun left her eight streets behind!

Pei Wendong’s face turned even greener, "What about Xie Yi?" He had said he would marry her, and after the incident with the Zheng family, she was reflecting on it. It was his responsibility, and he couldn’t deny her even a chance. Otherwise, what would she do in the future?

"If she doesn’t want to leave, then let her be a concubine! There’s no marriage contract anyway!" Pei Qian was almost grateful to the Zheng family and Xie Yi at this point. They harbored ill will, seeking to climb higher branches, and twice the elder sister’s marriage proposals were rejected. Now with no contract, who else needed to take responsibility and marry her as the principal wife?

Chang Yonglin’s eyes flickered, "Being a concubine also depends on if the Princess is willing."

Pei Qian scoffed, even happier, "Quick, call Doctor Qi to treat your wounds. Once you’re medicated, we’ll head to Anping Prince Mansion to propose!"

"Third sister!?" Pei Wendong’s face fell.

Pei Qian also turned her frown on him, "Is that shameless Xie Yi so great? Even if you have to take responsibility for her, you don’t necessarily have to marry her as your principal wife, do you? Look at her! Does she deserve it? With the Zheng family’s daughter, she lured our brother-in-law; who knows, maybe she was plotting against our elder sister too!"

"Third sister! It’s all in the past! Elder sister has already said she would not pursue it!" Pei Wendong’s face grew ugly.

Pei Qian was about to argue some more, but Pei Yuan, seeing her wielding the cleaver, tugged at her and softly said to Pei Wendong, "Now that it’s come to this, we certainly can’t let Princess Xi Yun be your concubine, can we?" tossing the dilemma back to him.
