After a while, Aunt Liu came to the hut with a bowl of water and said angrily: "Drink!"

Pei Yue stood up, took the porcelain bowl with both hands, and said respectfully: "Thank you, mama."

As the saying goes, don't hit someone with a smiling face. No matter how miserable Pei Yue is, he is still a serious young master in the Duke's mansion. At this moment, he is respectfully holding the junior ceremony. Aunt Liu can't continue scolding him. She just scolded: "Brother

If my son had known etiquette earlier, he wouldn't have ended up in this situation! In the past, when you were naughty and naughty, my wife would just confine you to the small courtyard. If you hadn't wandered around and bumped into distinguished guests at critical times, how could you have been imprisoned?

Here, the old woman has gained nothing from following you all these years. On the contrary, she has lost so much face! Look at the people around the eldest and second young masters. They are so beautiful and respectable. It makes people jealous just looking at them. Who is like this old woman?

, it has almost become a joke in the Duke’s mansion, it’s all your fault, brother!”

Pei Yue glanced at the spitting old woman and sighed: "It was my ignorance in the past that caused my grandma to suffer. I have thought a lot in the past two days. Apart from my wife, I owe you the most.

.”

Aunt Liu glanced at him sideways and said proudly, "It's good if I know!"

Pei Yue said sternly: "Although I haven't read many books, I still know the word kindness and righteousness. Grandma has been implicated by me, so naturally she has to make some compensation."

Mother Liu's heart was filled with heat, greed emerged in her triangular eyes, and she pretended to say: "Brother, what do you mean by this?"

Pei Yue said eloquently: "Mammy must not know that before my mother passed away, she left me a sum of money, which was the reward she received in the mansion, but the amount was not large. After all, mama also knew that my mother had left me a sum of money during her lifetime.

She's just a maid. I've been hiding the money, which amounts to more than thirty-six taels."

Aunt Liu glanced outside. This was a remote place in the house. Naturally, no one would come. She immediately smiled and said: "Brother, I am young and not sensible. Let me keep this money for you, right?"

You don’t have any place to spend money. Don’t worry, I won’t take the dozens of taels of silver into my eyes, and I will pay it back to you in the future.”

Pei Yue was disgusted and angry in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. He pretended to have a headache and said, "What grandma said is absolutely true, but I have to think about where to put the money."

Aunt Liu's face hardened and she said coldly: "Brother, are you just teasing me?"

Pei Yue shook his head and said sincerely: "Don't worry, mama, how could I do such a thing?"

Aunt Liu snorted and said, "I'm sorry you don't have the courage. If you know better, just hand over the money, otherwise you will have a lot of money!"

Pei Yue couldn't help but feel sad for the original owner of his body.

Born into such a wealthy family, I deserved my status as a young master, but I was so abused by such an old godly woman who was no better than a pig or a dog. It was really not easy for me to live to the age of thirteen.

He pretended to be a little timid and said: "My head hurts a little. Let me think about it. By the way, I heard that the house was doing something big, but I don't know what it is?"

For the sake of those dozens of taels of silver, Grandma Liu raised her eyebrows and asked as if giving a favor: "You don't know?"

Pei Yue shook his head and sighed: "I've been a little confused these past few days and can't remember anything."

Aunt Liu smiled and said: "The day after tomorrow is the old lady's sixtieth birthday, I have sent out invitations widely, and all the rich and powerful people in the city will come to wish the old lady a happy birthday! The day before yesterday, several familiar princes and ladies came to the house with their families as guests.

Brother, you were wandering around in the back house and bumped into some distinguished ladies, so my wife got very angry and grounded you here."

Pei Yue's heart moved, and he vaguely wanted to understand something.

At the same time, I was extremely angry.

After all, he is also Pei Rong's son. He is only thirteen years old this year and does not need to worry about the protection of men and women. But even so, he does not even have the right to walk in the back house.

It is conceivable what the people in power in this palace took him for.

Pei Yue looked at Grandma Liu who looked arrogant and asked innocently: "Mammy, are there any guests at home today?"

Aunt Liu shook her head and asked again: "Why do you ask this? Brother, do you still want to go out and run around?"

Those triangular eyes looked at him carefully, like monitoring a prisoner.

Pei Yue smiled bitterly and said: "How dare you wander around? It's just me, but I can't implicate grandma anymore. I just heard what grandma said about the excitement, and I also want to see the big scene. Grandma also knows,

My life in the mansion is not easy, and I have never been able to go to those busy places. If grandma is willing to tell me a few things, maybe I can immediately remember where the money is hidden."

Aunt Liu is not completely stupid. Today, the third young master is indeed different from usual. He talks and behaves as if he is a different person. He is not as shrinking and timid as usual. It's just that she is used to being domineering in front of Pei Yue, and she doesn't do it at all.

Take this thin little man seriously, and even if there is any abnormality, just think that he is scared by himself.

Thinking of this, she said with a touch of enthusiasm: "Today, the old lady is very happy to take the young masters and girls of the house to enjoy the flowers in Mingyue Pavilion. If I had been as sensible as today, maybe there would be a seat for you there.

Now don’t think too much about it. In a few days, when my wife feels better, she will naturally look for an opportunity to say a few nice words for you, and maybe I can avoid your sin."

As he spoke, he glanced at Pei Yue with his triangular eyes, not concealing his purpose at all.

Pei Yue sneered in his heart and continued to argue with this disgusting old woman in a low voice.

If it were another person, he might not be able to put aside his pride and reach this point, but in his previous life, Pei Yue started from scratch and built a great career. He did not know how many cold looks and ridicules he received. The last thing he cared about was the temporary troughs and setbacks.

A person like him who rolls in the mud and stands up will never stick to his face.

He has extremely rich experience in dealing with all kinds of religions. He is very familiar with talking about people and ghosts. It is actually very easy to deceive an old woman who is hanging around in the Duke's mansion.

Not long after, Pei Yue got the information he wanted to know from Aunt Liu, then slammed his head and said: "Mommy, I remembered, I hid the money in the bedroom of the small courtyard, under a tree.

It's buried under the bed legs. Remove the bed and lift the bricks, and you'll find a clay pot with the silver inside."

Aunt Liu was excited to chat. It was rare for someone of her status to meet someone who was willing to praise her. What's more, Pei Yue's speaking skills were extremely profound. The conversation made her feel comfortable. She was interrupted by Pei Yue.

Afterwards, the old woman couldn't help but feel a little angry. However, after hearing Pei Yue's words, all she knew in her heart was the word "yin", and she asked with a smile: "Brother, which bed leg is it?"

Pei Yue had a headache and said, "I can't remember this, but I'm sure it's under the bed."

Aunt Liu didn't mind and said with a smile: "I'll help you find it now, and then I'll help you put it away. I'll bring you food in the evening."

She still warned her, but her tone was gentle and very different from usual: "Brother, be sure not to run around, otherwise my wife will not let you go!"

"I understand, don't worry, mama." Pei Yue replied respectfully.

Aunt Liu left with a smile on her face. Pei Yue was still sitting on the edge of the bed, his face no longer as flattering as before, and became more solemn and solemn.

Based on the memories he searched in his mind and combined with the information given by Aunt Liu, he gradually learned about the situation of this Duke's mansion. Daliang was founded nearly a hundred years ago. When the great ancestor founded the country, he awarded nine heroes to the Duke. Among them, Ding Guogong

Pei Yuan is at the top of the list. He is both civil and military. He has never been defeated in more than a hundred battles, big or small, and is called a victorious general. Pei Yuan has experienced three emperors, Gaozu, Taizong, and Zhongzong. He is ninety-six years old and holds a high position in the Liang Army.

Extremely high, with profound legacy.

Pei Rong was the fourth generation of the Pei family and had no military merit. He relied on the shadow of his ancestors to become Dingyuan Bo.

There are eight members of the Pei family in Kyoto. Pei Rong's branch is the eldest, and the rest of the family depends on the Duke's government for their livelihood.

The most respected person in the house is Pei Rong's mother, Pei Taijun, the wife of a first-class Duke. This old lady has a slightly better attitude towards Pei Yue than others. After all, he is also her grandson, and she will take care of him when she remembers him.

Dingyuan Bo Pei Rong ignored his secular affairs and held the title of former governor in the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion. He only went there two or three times a year. The rest of the time he spent time having fun with a group of dandy boys.

The main wife, Mrs. Li, was in charge of the back house of the mansion. She doted on her two biological sons, Pei Cheng and Pei Yun, but was extremely harsh on Pei Yue.

After clarifying these relationships, Pei Yue finally made up his mind.

From his perspective, he can naturally see that if he does not change the status quo, he will be killed by those people sooner or later.

He is just a bastard, who would really care about his life or death?
