Chapter 208: Trained like a grandson
??Chapter 208 was trained like a grandson
??Pei Yi lowered her head, knowing that she was about to be scolded.
?? "You thought you won the game with resourcefulness that day, but in reality you were just lowering your status and pretending to be smart." Pei Xuanzong picked up the teapot on the table and poured a cup of herbal tea, saying bluntly.
?? "You must always remember that you are the lord of my Pei family and a nobleman."
?? "In the whole world, except for the royal family, no one has a higher status than my Pei family."
?? "Who dares to babble in front of you, you just deal with them."
?? "Where do you need to endure humiliation?"
?? "Just to let His Majesty clean up the court atmosphere, he actually sent himself to the prison."
?? "Do you think you are smart, or are you moving yourself?"
??Pei Yi blushed, lowered her head and dared not make a sound.
?? "Your schemes, to put it nicely, are 'a ninja can make great things'."
?? "To put it bluntly, it's a humble thought."
?? "Obviously as an aristocrat, with various connections in his hands, he has to imitate that poor family with no roots in his attitude of patience."
?? "Do you need Shinobu?!"
?? "Just like what happened to Xu Hansan this time, why don't you ask me to help you teach others?"
?? "From the moment he appeared in front of you and yelled, you can directly call someone to break his hands and feet, and throw him to feed the dogs!"
??Pei Xuanzong's face was cold and solemn, and his tone was rarely serious.
??He rather hated iron and steel and said: "Fanyin, have you thought about what it means to be aristocratic?"
?? "Have you ever thought about what is the difference between you and the humble family?"
?? "Do you still think that a humble family is noble, and my Pei family is a hypocritical noble?"
??Pei Yi was so ashamed that she lowered her head and had no face to raise her head.
??As her elder brother said, she has a humble mindset when dealing with the matter of Linhe County. To be precise, she is a commoner mindset- she doesn't know how to use her contacts flexibly, but only knows to exchange limited patience for results.
?? It's only her fault that she didn't have the concept of nobility and poor family before that.
?? Imagine a person who was used to being a commoner suddenly became an ancient nobleman. How could he change his mind so quickly and flexibly use his class privileges?
?? Now thinking back on her actions in Linhe County that day, although in the eyes of poor families, she may be called full of wisdom.
??But in the eyes of her father and brothers, she became a superfluous little fool—a problem that could be solved in a simple way, but she insisted on playing a round of twists and turns with humiliation.
??Pei Yi finally came to her senses. In the past, she felt that her father and brothers acted arrogantly, but in fact it was because she viewed the nobles from a commoner's perspective, and did not understand the internal logic of their behavior at all.
??She thinks she is modest and moderate, but in fact it is just a kind of humility and prudence learned from long-term patience and obedience in a civilian state.
??Pei Yi felt ashamed and guilty.
?? Fortunately, she used to think she was smart.
??But in the end, I was really stupid.
??How can she still face her father and brother?
??She really wished she could dig a crack in the ground and get in.
??Pei Xuanzong couldn't help but feel a little softer when he saw his sister huddled together in front of him and didn't even dare to say a word.
??His expression softened, and his tone was much softer than before: "Brother just spoke too loudly, did you get angry?"
??Pei Yi shook her head, pursed her lips and wanted to cry.
?? Seeing that she still refused to raise her head, Pei Xuan couldn't help sighing slightly.
??He pulled his younger sister in front of him, and gently held up her face.
??Seeing that his younger sister's eyes were red, Pei Xuanzong felt pain in his heart, and blamed himself: "I'm such an asshole, I don't care what I say. Lord Sanskrit has a lot, so don't bother with me, an asshole."
??Pei Yi didn't feel anything at first.
??But hearing what my brother said, I felt extremely wronged.
??Her nose was sour, and tears fell down.
?? "You were so mean to me just now, I feel like an idiot." Pei Yi cried aggrievedly, "You almost said the word 'idiot'."
??Pei Xuanzong's heart was softened by his sister crying.
??He coaxed softly: "Brother is wrong, my Fanyin is not an idiot."
?? "The Sanskrit sound is actually very powerful. My father and I will never learn the word 'forbearance' in this life."
?? "But you can 'endure' the Sanskrit sound, this is your excellence."
?? "Actually, there is nothing wrong with your 'forbearance', you just need to distinguish whether there is a need for 'forbearance'."
??Pei Yi now has a headache whenever she hears the word "forbearance".
??Because she endured the county magistrate Na Li in Linhe County, her father and two elder brothers have repeatedly educated her many times.
?? "I don't want to hear it anymore." Pei Yi willfully covered her ears, sobbing, "I'm not your soldier. Why are you so fierce to me?"
?? "I was trained like a grandson by you!"
?? "Daddy never trained me like that!"
?? "Why do you?"
??Pei Xuanzong took out a clean sweat towel to wipe his sister's tears, and coaxed in a good voice: "It's the elder brother's fault. The elder brother shouldn't have scolded you. If you continue to cry like this, the elder brother can only plead guilty."
??Where would Pei Yi be willing to have her brother talk to her so humblely?
?? It's only because she has been spoiled by her father and brothers during this time, she can't listen to a harsh word, and she is too delicate.
??Pei Yi took the sweat towel in elder brother's hand to wipe her tears, then held her nose, choked up and said, "It's not that I can't accept others criticizing me, but you can't criticize me too much."
?? "Sanskrit is right." Pei Xuanzong coaxed him with almost 120,000 points of tenderness, "I will discipline myself in the future and never say a harsh word to Sanskrit."
??Pei Yi's cheeks turned red.
??Being coaxed by her brother as a three-year-old doll, she felt very embarrassed.
??Pei Xuanzong saw that her face had softened a little, and said with a light smile, "Sanskrit is not angry with me, is it?"
??Pei Yi blushed and shook her head.
??She didn't get angry with her elder brother.
??She was spoiled by her elder brother, and she couldn't get used to being scolded at all.
??Think about how hypocritical I am, why cry.
??Pei Yi's cheeks were flushed, she threw the dirty sweat towel aside, took out her own sweat towel and continued to wipe away tears.
??Pei Xuanzong found it funny when he saw his sister's awkward appearance.
??He didn't dare to continue the topic just now, and instead said: "I heard that the third prince went to the palace early today to have a face-to-face meeting."
?? "Fanyin, you have taken care of the third prince in Linhe County for so long."
?? "Tell me, will His Majesty call you into the palace later to inquire about the situation?"
??When Pei Yi heard this, she really didn't feel like crying at all.
??Even if she managed to find a sense of being an aristocrat now, she has been a good citizen for a long time in her bones, and she still can't change it for a while.
??As soon as she heard that she might be meeting the emperor, Pei Yi subconsciously panicked.
