Chapter 211 Gentle Mrs. Pei
Tao Zhen poured a glass of water for Mrs. Pei. Mrs. Pei smiled and asked, "What do you want to say to me?"

Seeing Mrs. Pei who was so calm and gentle, Tao Zhen already felt something.

"Do you know that the Pei family's affairs are related to the Tao family?"

Mrs. Pei held the cup with both hands. When she heard this, her fingers clenched slightly. After a long time, she said: "I know a little."

She didn't really want to recall what happened that day, but she still couldn't help but think that she had recalled it countless times in the dead of night, and she also wanted to find some clues from it.

"That day, it was your elder brother who brought people to arrest him."

When the eldest brother of the Tao family came, the Pei family warmly welcomed the prospective uncle, thinking that he had something important to do. Who would have thought that he would come with a group of officials behind him, and he would be unprepared for everyone. Pei Yong and the drunk groom Pei Huan were taken away.

Mrs. Pei was a woman, and she didn't even have time to say a word to her husband. She wanted to ask what happened and why this happened, but she was mercilessly pushed away by the eldest brother of the Tao family.

The Pei family was in chaos, and the two heads of the Pei family were taken away. Pei Zhan drank so much that he fell unconscious. Pei Heng was still young, and the other people in the family were not very helpful. Mrs. Pei didn't even know what happened to her that day. Came here.

From then on, she and her husband and son were separated from each other. A few days later, according to the imperial decree, they were exiled to Ningzhou...

Tao Zhen always felt that Pei Zhan was unhappy and he was very sad, but the most painful and sad thing among them was Mrs. Pei.

However, she is still their mother. No matter what, she cannot show any vulnerability. Only when she is here, the two sons have a mother and a family...

"No one knows the details of the Pei family's affairs, and they haven't found out whether it is the Tao family..."

Mrs. Pei choked up a little: "Even if it is, it's not something you can control, A-Zhen. You married into the Pei family, got married to A-Huan, and came here with us. You are a member of our Pei family."

Tao Zhen understood that this was Mrs. Pei's attitude. She knew that the affairs of the Pei family were related to the Tao family, but she regarded her as a member of the family. She was the wife of the Pei family who entered the family tree.

"I thought you all blamed me..." Tao Zhen's eyes turned red.

Mrs. Pei held her hand and shook her head gently: "There are only a few people in the family. Survival is the most important thing. I see all the things you have done for the family..."

She paused and said, "Azhan is still young and sometimes he can't understand. Please bear with me."

"I know."

The people Tao Zhen had met in her two lifetimes were either selfish and indifferent, or mean and vicious. She had never met anyone like Mrs. Pei.

There was an indescribable emotion in her heart.

She thought that no matter what Pei Zhan's attitude was towards her, at least Mrs. Pei and Pei Heng regarded her as part of the family.

This is the first time she has come here and truly feels like she has a home.

……

A few days later, Tao Zhen met Hu Xin outside Yun Sanniang's shop. She came to deliver the clothes, but not to Yun Sanniang's place, but to the Nishangfang opposite.

Ever since Mrs. Pei went to Hu's house that time, Hu Xin already knew that she had been exposed, so she simply stopped hiding it.

Looking at Tao Zhen, she lowered her head and hurriedly entered the door.

Yunyi looked at Tao Zhen and the others provocatively from outside.

Yun Sanniang had a bad temper. When she saw Hu Xin, she was still a little angry even though she already knew the result. She was about to go over to argue, but Tao Zhen grabbed her sleeve.

"Why are you pulling me here? Let's see how I teach this little bitch a lesson!"

Yun Sanniang always scolded people harshly, and Tao Zhen was a little amused: "A gentleman uses his words but not his hands. There is no need."

Hu Xin is just a commercial spy at best, nothing special.

And she can steal once or twice, but can she keep stealing?Unless she can design her own clothes.

Yun Sanniang said angrily: "I just can't swallow this breath." Tao Zhen looked at the people coming in and out of the shop opposite and said: "There's no hurry."

Yunyi's shop has been doing very well these days. Most of the people in Ningzhou City know that the clothes here are good-looking and cheap, so they are rushing to buy them.

But there was no trouble on Yun Sanniang's side, and Yun Yi was a little proud.

When Hu Xin came over, Yun Yi smiled and asked her to sit down: "Come to deliver clothes?"

I don't know why, Hu Xin is a little afraid of Yunyi.

"Ah."

She paused: "They found me."

Yun Yi said: "What are you afraid of? They didn't consider you a friend to begin with. Wouldn't it be better if they found out now?"

That's what she said, but Hu Xin was always uneasy. Firstly, it was her first time to do such a thing, so she was a little embarrassed. Secondly, her family was still in the quarry, which was Pei Zhan's territory. She was worried about Pei Zhan. Duke Zhan avenged himself and caused trouble for her family.

Yun Yi sneered and said, "Actually, you don't have to worry about it. Business is inherently deceitful, and Tao Zhen knows it."

Hu Xin wanted to say something else, but Yun Yi stood up and said, "The clothes in our shop are cheap and good-looking, why don't you choose one for yourself?"

Hu Xin was interrupted and started to think about it. She had wanted to buy it for a long time. She wanted to dress decently like the girls in Ningzhou and go out.

Hu Xin went to choose clothes. Yun Yi looked at her back and sneered.

Hu Xin chose one piece and spent most of the money she earned from making clothes these days. The rest she wanted to buy a pair of beautiful embroidered shoes.

"It's true that a man relies on his clothes and a horse relies on his saddle. Look, how beautiful it is." Yun Yi sighed: "Just put it on like this."

Hu Xin nodded, put on the new clothes and wrapped up the old clothes.

When she came out, she felt that her waist was straightened. She took three pictures from Mrs. Pei. Yunyi had just given her six taels of silver, which was enough to clear her money and goods.

Hu Xin looked at Yun Sanniang's shop and felt proud.

She thought, isn’t it just making clothes?If Tao Zhen can do it, so can she. As long as she gives Yunyi some clothes, she can get six taels of silver every month, and her family's life will not be a problem.

Yun Sanniang was furious when she saw Hu Xin's appearance. If she hadn't remembered Tao Zhen's words, she would have slapped Hu Xin right now.

Hu Xin stood for a while and then left. As she walked on the road, she felt that someone was always looking at her. She was in high spirits. On the way back, she met Wu Lai.

Wu Lai came in a carriage. When he saw Hu Xin, he stopped the carriage and said, "Miss Hu, are you alone?"

Although Hu Xin doesn't like Wu Lai, things are different now. She can't refuse to lick the dog now. It's been a long time since she's been supported by someone.

"Master Wu, are you going to the exile village too?"

Wu Lai smiled and said, "It's still a long way to meet my cousin. Do you need me to give you a ride?"

Hu Xin shook his head: "No, it's too much trouble for you."

"You're welcome, just on my way!"

Wu Lai raised his eyebrows in a flirtatious manner. Hu Xin only felt greasy and bored, but when she saw Wu Lai's carriage, her thoughts changed.

If she could go back in a carriage and wear the newly bought clothes, the people in the village would definitely look high on her. Then who would dare to say that she is inferior to Tao Zhen, and who would dare to look down on her.

Wu Lai could tell what Hu Xin was thinking at a glance. He had seen this kind of woman a lot. He smiled more enthusiastically and said, "On the way, come on soon."

Hu Xin finally got in the car.
