History of Empress Dowager Development

Chapter 21

Pei Mingxi's life experience is also pitiful.Her father, Pei Yushi, was originally a poor student. When he went to Beijing to rush for the exam, he was exhausted. With the help of a wealthy businessman, he persisted.

Later, when Pei Yushi returned to his hometown by chance, he ran into his childhood sweetheart, the sister next door, Yang Shi.

When Pei Yushi Hanchuang was studying hard, Yang was always by his side, and the elders of the two families also acquiesced.He even promised that he would marry Yang as his wife when he was nominated for the gold list. During his trip to Beijing for four or five years, he got married and had children. He thought that Yang should also marry and have children, but who knew that Yang was still waiting for him there. He even served Pei Yushi's parents on his behalf.

Pei Yushi married the He family because he was grateful for the support of the He family. He loved the gentle and gentle Yang family the most in his heart. When he learned that she had been looking forward to him infatuatedly, he was deeply moved and moved into the red silk soft tent.

However, at that time, his grade was not high, and he relied entirely on the money of the He family in the capital, so he did not dare to bring Yang Shi back to the capital, but still settled her in the village, sending money secretly every year or going back to visit occasionally, only saying that it was for Visit parents.Mrs. He was so happy not to go to the backcountry, so he didn't care about it at all, so he didn't know about Mrs. Yang's existence.

When Pei Mingxi grew up to be seven years old, the Yang family finally passed away due to the pain of lovesickness. The two elders of the Pei family felt guilty, so they arranged for Pei Mingxi to be sent to the capital, not wanting her to continue to suffer.

Now that Pei Yushi's back is stiff, he was deeply saddened and felt more guilty when he learned of Yang's death, so he settled Pei Mingxi in the mansion and asked Pei Minglan to take care of him.But where is Pei Minglan willing?
The day He learned the truth, he was furious. Although he didn't directly throw Pei Mingxi out of the house because of Pei Yushi's majesty, he still made a fuss.Pei Yushi thought about all the benefits of Yang's life, and felt more and more pitiful for Pei Mingxi, and took extra care of her. Although the servants in the mansion knew Pei Mingxi's position in his heart, Pei Minglan's mother and daughter felt resentful.

Pei Minglan has been immersed in the capital for many years, of course she is not a fool, she dared not openly disobey Pei Yushi's order, and immediately promised to take care of this concubine sister, and take her with her when she went out to socialize, but she never gave a good face, and even found fault when she was fine Bully.

When Linlang met Pei Mingxi, Pei Mingxi was depressed because of Pei Minglan's run-off, and was hiding in a corner of the library to read.She had just arrived in Beijing at that time, and she was always timid when facing the imperial city's majesty and the unfamiliar Pei family. Besides, she knew something about her embarrassing status, and she had a grudge against Pei Yushi, so she never said anything about being wronged.

Lin Lang also liked to read books in that corner at that time. The two of them sat together for a long time, and gradually became acquainted. Only then did Lin Lang gradually understand Pei Mingxi's life experience, and also figured out her temperament——

It's not that she is timid, but she just doesn't want to cause trouble, so she immerses herself in the world of calligraphy and painting, and ignores Pei Minglan's push.Although there is some meaning of escaping, there is nothing to do.

At that time, Lin Lang was not very sensible, and when she saw Pei Minglan bullying Pei Mingxi, she would help her out, but what she got in return was more bullying by Pei Minglan.After all, Linlang is an outsider who can't help, but in Pei's family, although Pei Yushi is willing to protect her, the other party is also a wife and daughter, and the palms and backs of her hands are full of flesh, so she can't be too partial. I will not deliberately support it.

Under such circumstances, Pei Mingxi went to fight against Pei Minglan's mother and daughter again, it was tantamount to asking for trouble, so he gave in and endured, and went to manage his own small world.

The relationship between Lin Lang and her is still good, but it's not as ostentatious as before, and she will restrain herself a little in front of Pei Minglan, lest she make a mistake and find fault with Pei Mingxi.

The affairs of the Pei family are not a secret in this circle, and Xu Xiang knows something about it, but she has never had any contact with the Pei family, and although she feels sorry for Pei Mingxi, there is nothing she can do to help her.

The two walked slowly holding hands, followed by He Weijie and Xu Lang pacing over, when they arrived at the private room, the eldest lady and the county princess were already planning to leave, He Xuanji and the county magistrate walked arm in arm, followed by the sisters He Linglong, They plan to go home separately.

Since Linlang met Xu Xiang and was having a good time playing, she would go back and beg the eldest lady to let her play for a long time, and only asked He Weijie and Xu Lang to take good care of her.

Lin Lang had thought about it a long time ago. Today, not only is it lively outside the city, but the Huguo Temple in the city is also interesting. When she mentioned it, it coincided with Xu Xiang.

The concubine of the county and the head of the county had to go elsewhere, so He Weijie accompanied the eldest lady into the city, and returned to He's mansion along the way, and went straight to Huguo Temple on the other way.

Compared with Shaolingyuan outside the city, the Huguo Temple is a different kind of bustling.This is one of the most incense-burning temples in the capital. Common people love to come here to burn incense for peace or to make small wishes, which are said to be quite effective.Because Huguo Temple is not far from the imperial city, and close to the residences of high-ranking officials and relatives, most of the pilgrims who come and go are the daughters of officials and young masters from rich families.
