After Being Reborn and Regaining Her Identity, the True Heiress Is Spoiled in the Seventies-Chapter 266: Extreme, No way.

Old Pei's outstretched hand stopped, and the watermelon almost fell to the ground. The smile on his face was also gone, replaced with a complicated expression.

He looked at Pei JianGuo, sighed helplessly, and walked over here.

Guo Momo was also nervous. Her eyes were red and she didn't dare look at Old Pei. "Grandpa, I'm sorry. Blame me. I was reluctant to separate from JianGuo, so I asked him to marry me. I'm really sorry."

Pei JianGuo blocked Guo Momo. "This has nothing to do with Momo. My mom has always disagreed and forced me to go on blind dates. I can endure everything else, but for my marriage, I only want to decide for myself and marry someone I like. "

If he couldn't even achieve this little bit, he really felt there was no meaning left in living in this world.

Perhaps Guo Momo wasn't the most outstanding, but he felt at ease and comfortable with her.

Old Pei glared at Pei JianGuo. To Guo Momo he said, "Child, I'm not blaming you. I'm afraid you'll be wronged. This brat JianGuo was spoiled by us since he was little and he does things recklessly too."

After speaking, he looked at Pei JianGuo again. "Even though your parents divorced, you're still a Pei family child. Your mother has the right to speak about your marriage. But your father and I aren't dead yet either. You're saying, my child, how could you choose such an extreme method? Like this, how will Momo get along with your mother in the future? She's a girl. What will outsiders think of her?"

Based on his understanding of Wang Yue, he knew that with Pei JianGuo and Guo Momo daring to get a marriage certificate behind her back, she would surely become more extreme later on.

They still lived together. JianGuo could escape to work, but what could a girl like Momo do?

Pei JianGuo didn't dare speak with his head lowered.

At the time, he just acted on impulse without thinking it through so much.

Now after hearing Old Pei say this, he suddenly felt that he had indeed only considered things from his own standpoint, ignoring Guo Momo's situation.

"Momo, do your parents know yet?" Old Pei knew this question was redundant.

Wang Yue had always disagreed. It was unlikely the parents on both sides had even met, much less let their daughter secretly get a marriage certificate with a man in any normal family?

Even if the Guo family valued boys over girls and didn't care about Guo Momo, they still wouldn't neglect to negotiate a bride price.

"They don't know yet. I...I didn't dare say anything." Guo Momo's eyes were red, but she understood in her heart that the main issue was still Wang Yue.

With Pei JianGuo's conditions, it was unlikely his family would disagree, but Wang Yue had found fault with her twice with belittling words, looking down on her very much, and it was impossible for her to sit down peacefully with the elders to discuss their marriage.

Old Pei was silent for a long time before speaking. "Have your father come back for a bit. No matter what, marriage is a joyous occasion in the end. I can't manage things on your mother's side, but you still have the Pei surname. As an old man I can intervene."

Old Pei had them go to the living room and told Pei JianGuo to notify Pei Yong, also asking Guo Momo to go home and inform her parents to arrange for both families to meet and discuss the wedding.

Although the matter was already decided, they still had to go through the proper steps. Things shouldn't be done in an embarrassing manner.

On her way out, Guo Momo's heart was filled with trepidation.

Pei JianGuo grasped her hand. "Momo, grandpa is right. This matter has wronged you. Trust me, I will treat you well in the future to make up for it."

Guo Momo smiled with relief. "I don't need you to make up to me, and I don't feel wronged. But JianGuo, your mother still doesn't know we got married. She will surely feel bad when she finds out. But that's to be expected. No matter what, keeping it secret from her to get married was wrong of us. So when we get back, if your mother vents her anger at you, you must endure it and not argue with her. Wait until she calms down, then we can coax her well. Your mother dotes on you so much. As long as we persevere, I believe she will accept me sooner or later."

"Mm," Pei JianGuo nodded heavily.

But reality was never as idealistic as planned.

As soon as he told Wang Yue that he and Guo Momo got a marriage certificate, Wang Yue spewed a stream of verbal abuse that shamed even Pei JianGuo.

Seeing Wang Yue remain agitated no matter what he said, he suddenly felt that if only he could also escape from here as well.

"Pei JianGuo, where are you going? Are you going to sneak off again to find that vixen?"

Pei JianGuo didn't look back at all as he left, appearing extremely heartless. But if one could see his pale complexion, perhaps they would understand his current mood.

The day Pei Yong returned and met with Guo Momo's parents to settle the wedding arrangements.

It was easy to resolve things with the Guo family. They just asked for a higher bride price. But Pei Yong wasn't stupid either. Although the divorce was like starting anew penniless, over the years he had secretly saved up some private funds. Added to the money he received the past two months and no longer needing to hand all the money to Wang Yue since the children were grown, he could fill the bride price demanded by the Guos.

The wedding was not elaborate. Pei Yong still didn't want to see Wang Yue again, but had to meet with her for the sake of his son.

But Wang Yue remained the same. Even at this point she still refused to compromise.

Left without a choice, they could only set up two tables in the old house. At least others would know Pei JianGuo had gotten a wife.

But when they returned home that evening, Pei JianGuo discovered he was locked out, not to mention Guo Momo who came back with him.

The newlywed couple looked at each other. Guo Momo felt very aggrieved too but she understood the helplessness and shame in Pei JianGuo's eyes.

At this moment, he was thinking that what his mother said was right after all. He really was ineffectual and incompetent.

What man on his wedding night would be unable to return home with his wife in this entire Jincheng, forcing his wife to be homeless. He was likely the only one.

"JianGuo, it's alright. As long as we're together, I'm not afraid without a place to live. Worst case we can go rent a room. Grandpa gave me a red packet with twenty yuan last time. Second auntie and little auntie each gave six yuan. Dad gave fifty. Added up it's not a small sum, enough for us to get by two months. You have a monthly salary. I can do odd jobs. As long as our hearts are united, I believe no matter what, we can make it through." Guo Momo hugged Pei JianGuo tightly, snuggling into his embrace completely.

Pei JianGuo looked back once more at the door of his home but he still couldn't go back in.

It was just as well. He had thought to wait until his mother got over her anger and Momo would unavoidably suffer mistreatment for a period.

Now she didn't want them.

Pei JianGuo secretly wiped his moist eyes. Lowering his head, he could only see the top of Guo Momo's head.

It wasn't as easy as they imagined to go rent a house. Housing was scarce now. Many families didn't even have enough housing for themselves, with multiple generations squeezing together in one house.

He knew clearly in his heart that Guo Momo was only able to say those words perhaps because she saw his embarrassment and wanted to comfort him, or perhaps she really just didn't understand at all.

Inside the house, Pei Shuangshuang had crouched at the door crack watching for a long time as Pei JianGuo left hand-in-hand with Guo Momo until their backs disappeared. She hurried to Wang Yue, "Mom, isn't this bad of us? What if we drive brother completely to Guo Momo's side?"

Wang Yue angrily rolled her eyes. "Just you watch. I understand your brother too well. Don't bother with him. His clothes and belongings are still inside! Tomorrow I'll go change the lock. He's depended on me to care for him all these years and has no clue what real life is like. He can't even handle basic living necessities for two months before he'll come crawling back. As for Guo Momo, if she wants to be my daughter-in-law, she won't step foot through this door!"
