Faced with his wife's questioning, Liu Wutong finally did not dare to hide it and revealed a secret about Li Dai. Xiangguo rented a house outside two months ago. There lived a young woman and a young boy in Yong'anfang, but specifically in
Where is the square? No one knows. Every time Xiangguo walks in by himself.
This news made Pei Sanniang almost faint. Her husband actually raised another housewife and gave birth to a son. In her desperation, Pei Sanniang did not realize that there were contradictions in Liu Wutong's words.
She went back to her room angrily and started packing her things. She wanted to go back to Longyou, and she didn't want this husband.
When Liu Wutong heard from the maid that his wife was starting to pack her luggage, he knew that he had gotten into trouble and hurriedly ran to inform the master.
Half an hour later, Li Dai hurried back to the mansion.
When Li Dai saw that his wife had packed the boxes and luggage, he suddenly became anxious and asked, "Madam, what are you doing?"
Pei Sanniang said coldly: "Ye'er has married Qingyu, and she is expected to be pregnant soon. I'm not worried, so I have to take care of her."
Li Dai sighed and said, "I'm not selfish. Aunt Jiang is not in good health. I'm afraid I won't even be able to have a hot meal after you leave."
Pei Sanniang was so angry that she opened her almond-shaped eyes and said, "You can go to Yong'anfang to eat. Will you starve to death? Once I leave, I won't have to go home every day. Isn't that just what you want?"
"What are you talking about?"
"Am I talking nonsense?"
Pei Sanniang poked Li Dai's chest with her finger, "I promised to get back together with you back then. How did you promise me? You promised me that you would never take a concubine. Aunt Jiang was in the past, so I let it go, but you just thought that I
You are easy to bully, and you are raising a housewife outside. Even after giving birth to a son, I still know nothing about it. Where is your promise? Has your conscience been eaten by a dog? "
Li Dai stamped his feet anxiously, "Sanniang, I don't have one! Why don't you believe me?"
"How can I trust you? Explain to me what happened to the women and children in Yong'anfang?"
After a long while, Li Dai said helplessly: "That is Huai'er's wife, and the child is my grandson."
"What?"
Pei Sanniang took a few steps back in shock, "Those are Li Huai's wife and son? How is that possible?"
Li Dai sighed, "To be precise, she is Huai'er's concubine, and the son is Huai'er's. His wife couldn't tolerate it, so Huai'er sent the mother and son to Chang'an, begging me to take care of them, but you misunderstood!"
"Li Dai! Li Jingwen! Do you dare to swear that you are telling the truth and you are not making it up to deceive me?"
Li Dai raised his hand and said: "Li Dai swears to God that everything I said is true and there is no lie at all, otherwise God will not tolerate it."
Pei Sanniang believed it now. She was unable to sit down. She said after a while: "Why didn't you tell me such an important thing? Why didn't you let them live at home?"
"I won't tell you because I'm afraid you'll feel uncomfortable. After all, I'm not Ye'er's child, and Huai'er is an official in Youzhou. I'm afraid someone will report it. There is a spy for the emperor in our house."
Pei Sanniang is right when she thinks about it. They still can't find out who the watcher is? It's really annoying.
By this time, Pei Sanniang's anger had subsided. She poked her husband's forehead and said, "Are you still the prime minister, you stupid idiot? I am also the prime minister's wife after all, and I don't have the capacity to accommodate others. The child is your grandson.
That's my grandson too, for your sake, will I leave it alone?"
Li Dai had a wry smile on his face and his heart was relieved.
"Then what does the lady say?"
"Wait! Let me ask first, when did Huai'er get married? Who is his wife? What official position does he hold now?"
"I just found out that Huai'er got married half a year ago. He is a son-in-law. His wife is the daughter of Fan Yanglu's family. She may be a concubine! He is now the magistrate of Jixian County. The woman from Yong'anfang is a singer. The child is one year old.
But the Lu family wouldn't tolerate it, so Huai'er had no choice but to send someone to Chang'an."
Pei Sanniang suddenly thought of herself, as if she had the same fate back then. She was not tolerated by the wife, so she had to take her son to make a living in Yonghefang.
Pei Sanniang thought for a while and said: "The house is under surveillance, so we really can't live in it, so let's do it! Diagonally across is Aye's house, let them live there! It's convenient to take care of them this way."
Li Dai frowned, "But that's Ye'er's house! It also involves the Dugu family, so it's not appropriate!"
"Hey! I said you were a dead-head, and I was absolutely right. Could it be that the dignified Prince Qi still lives in that small house of three acres? And hang a sign of Prince Qi's Mansion at the door?"
Li Dai smiled self-deprecatingly, "That's true!"
"That's right. Refugees from Qihuhu County have lived there. There is no need to pay attention to it. Xinyue will definitely not live there anymore. The key is with me. You asked Lao Liu to move the mother and son. Also, Jiang
You should pay more attention to my aunt, and don't dislike her. She was stabbed to save you, so you should be conscientious."
Li Dai was greatly moved. His wife was tolerant and kind. If he married a wife like this, what else could a husband ask for?
Originally, Li Dai and his son Li Huai had severed the father-son relationship. He wanted to be the son of the Yuwen family, so he let him go.
But a few months ago, he received a letter from Li Huai from Youzhou, in which he apologized to his father for his ignorance when he was young, and told his father that he had married a daughter of the Lu family and was now the magistrate of Jixian County.
He now encountered a problem and begged his father for help. He had a concubine who was not tolerated by the Lu family, but she gave birth to a son and could not be driven away. He begged his father to take her in and help take care of her.
His son's name is Li Tong. It was this Li Tong that suddenly broke Li Dai's guard. He cried all night. After all, it is the blood of father and son. How can it be so easy to cut off? Moreover, his grandson is called Li Tong. He is the third generation of the Li family.
ah!
Li Dai immediately wrote a letter agreeing to take in and take care of his grandson.
Of course Li Dai still has his own thoughts. The court will not let Li Huai go. After all, he is an official of An Lushan and Shi Siming. If his son Li Huai can go to Longyou, he will be safe and sound. The key is that this matter must be discussed with Ye
After discussing with his son, he could not make the decision without permission. After spring, he would write a letter to his second son Li Ye.
In the afternoon of the next day, a carriage took Li Huai's concubine and son to Xuanpingfang.
The concubine's surname is Wang, from Jizhou. She was born in poverty. She was sold as a singer at the age of twelve. She is only eighteen years old this year.
Although he was from Yanzhao, he was very petite and delicate, and looked quite pitiful. He held his one-year-old son in his arms and kowtowed to Pei Sanniang.
"My concubine, Mrs. Wang, please pay my respects to my mother-in-law!"
Although the Lu family did not tolerate her, she gave birth to Li Dai's first grandson, and Li Dai recognized her as his daughter-in-law. If her husband recognized her, Pei Sanniang would also recognize her.
Pei Sanniang took Mrs. Wang over. Of course she had another worry. She knew that her husband was a decent man and would not have any inappropriate thoughts about his daughter-in-law.
But what if the daughter-in-law takes the initiative?
The daughter-in-law is a singer by background, which is actually a prostitute. If she seduces her father-in-law in order to obtain better benefits, and her husband is in his prime, if the two of them get together, it will be a big scandal.
Therefore, Pei Sanniang offered to let Wang and her son live in her son Li Ye's house, just for her own convenience and to avoid scandals.
Pei Sanniang smiled and helped Mrs. Wang up, then took the child and looked at it. She had a big face and small eyes, very much like his direct grandmother Yu Wenluo. Of course, she also looked like his father, and nothing like her husband.
Pei Sanniang's heart finally fell. This was indeed Li Huai's son, and her husband had not deceived her.
