MTL - After Playing the Fool and Marrying the Blind Villain [Transmigration]-Chapter 3
Pei Yi had already guessed this scene, and looked at the nanny Chen Rong who was still dazed at the door, "Where is my jade pendant?"
"..."
There seemed to be an invisible undercurrent surging in his usually timid eyes, Chen Rong subconsciously felt terrified, "Young master, what are you talking about?"
There was a cold arc on the corner of Pei Yi's mouth, he could see it better than anyone else—
The original owner's father was once the most valued son of the old couple of the Pei family. After passing away unexpectedly in his early years, the original owner who was still in his infancy was raised by the old couple under his knees.
When he was young, the original owner was also a smart child in the wealthy circle of the imperial capital, until he was ten years old, he was accidentally stupid, and after the treatment failed, he made several big jokes one after another.
Mr. Pei, who always cares about face, felt chilled by his little grandson, so he simply threw it aside and avoided seeing him.
But the soft-hearted Mrs. Pei couldn't bear it. She took good care of the original owner's three meals a day. If she had any valuables, she would not miss them. She hoped that the original owner would return to normal one day.
It's a pity that the sky fails to fulfill people's wishes.
Mrs. Pei was hospitalized due to illness, and since then, the original owner has completely lost her place in this family, and even the nanny Chen Rong has begun to worry about it——
In the name of taking care of the original owner, she first embezzled Mrs. Pei's private house money to subsidize the original owner during her hospitalization, and when the other party fell ill and passed away without money to subsidize, she began to pack the items in the original owner's room.
Either selling it for money to supplement the family, or stealing it to give to her precious son, even if someone asked, she would only say that the young master lost it.
This man is simply a weasel kept at home!
Chen Rong, who was standing at the door, felt guilty for seeing Pei Yi's unblinking gaze.
The jade pendant that the other party has been wearing around his neck was given by Mr. Pei a few years ago, and it looks very valuable. Chen Rong has never found the right time to steal it. Today, he accidentally discovered——
The other party left the jade pendant on the bed before changing clothes and going out?
Can this be done?
So, taking advantage of no one's attention, Chen Rong took the jade pendant back to her room, planning to take it out and sell it when she had time, but how could she have thought that Pei Yi would ask about it as soon as she entered the room?
Pei Yi decided to ask, "Where's my jade pendant?"
"What jade pendant?" Nanny Chen Rong denied it, "I didn't see any jade pendant!"
She thought that Pei Yi was just being brave for a while, and when he came forward, the villain would complain first, "Ask me about the things you lost?"
"That jade pendant was given to you by the old man! Did you make such a loud noise to let him know?"
Pei Yi didn't speak, and the sarcasm in his eyes became more obvious.
One second he lied and said he didn't know, but the next second he realized that the jade pendant was given by Mr. Pei, and all of this has been leaked long ago!
Chen Rong saw that ordinary scolding was useless, and immediately wanted to twist Pei Yi's arm—
In the past, whenever someone asked to find something, Chen Rong would first move out Mr. Pei to suppress it forcibly, and then wrestled with his own hands. In just three or five strokes, he was able to scare the timid original owner into silence.
It's a pity that Pei Yi is not the original owner, and she has seen through her wishful thinking.
Before going out, I used the jade pendant as bait, just waiting for the weasel to get into the trap. This good show can't stop here at the beginning.
Pei Yi quickly pinched Chen Rong's wrist, and pushed it away before the other party could react, "Get lost!"
— Bang!
Chen Rong, who was unsteady, fell backwards towards the desk shelf.
The messy things on the table fell all over the floor, making noises one after another.
Chen Rong slumped on the ground in embarrassment, her shoulder accidentally knocked against the corner of the table, and the sudden sharp pain distorted her expression, "Ouch! Ouch..."
Pei Yi ignored it and smashed a glass vase to the ground with force, making the commotion even louder.
After finishing this, Pei Yi lowered her eyes on her long-sleeved thin coat, restrained her hostility, and waited quietly for others to appear.
Sure enough, the sound of footsteps came quickly.
Mr. Pei, who was walking in the front, saw the mess in the room, and his brows and eyes showed a little displeasure, "What's going on?"
When Chen Rong saw the people gathered at the door, she immediately held her left arm and pretended to be in pain, but she didn't start to feel the pain, and a sudden burst of crying burst into her ears.
"Grandpa, jade pendant, jade pendant is gone."
"..."
Everyone looked towards the source of the sound in unison.
At this moment, Pei Yi's eyes were flushed, and big tears fell down with the timid movement of slightly lowering his head. His cheeks and even the tip of his nose were red, and his pitiful little appearance seemed to be greatly affected. The grievance is simply being bullied!
Chen Rong looked at the 'face-changing' Pei Yi in astonishment, there was no way to associate him with his fierce appearance not long ago.
The Pei couple who accompanied them up looked at each other, a little unexpected—
They are used to seeing Pei Yi foolish and crazy on weekdays, even crying is a disorganized noise, which is annoying!
At this moment, the other party actually changed his normal behavior, and only shed tears without making a fuss, and the two words he cried in a low voice were soft-hearted.
Seeing this, Uncle Kai who was standing behind Mr. Pei couldn't help but speak up for Pei Yi, "Young master, what jade pendant is missing?"
Pei Yi cautiously approached Mr. Pei, touched Kong Ruya's neck and sobbed softly, "Grandpa gave it to you, the jade pendant, but she, took it away and hid it. I want the jade pendant."
There was a hint of eagerness in the stumbling voice, and it sounded like he was trying hard to explain to everyone.
Mr. Pei's expression changed slightly, and he immediately understood—
Although he didn't like the foolish Pei Yi, he was his own grandson after all. When the other party turned eighteen, he improvised and asked the housekeeper to take out a white jade ruyi pendant from the storeroom as a coming-of-age gift.
Pei Yi has always worn the jade around her neck and never took it off.
Grandpa Pei looked at Pei Yi's pitiful and eager look in front of him, and suddenly remembered the other party's childhood, he kept surrounding him and calling him grandpa affectionately, and he would keep it safe after he got the gift.
Looking back now, even if he was infatuated with his mind, the other party never lost the jade pendant he gave away casually.
There was a gap in Mr. Pei's hard and indifferent heart, and he looked at Chen Rong, "Explain clearly what's going on? You hid the young master's jade pendant?"
Chen Rong blushed and denied, "Old man, I was wronged! The young master still wears the jade pendant when he goes out!"
"It's clear, it's clear that he lost it himself and was afraid of being scolded by you, so he said nonsense that my head came up, and just pushed me angrily. I guess my arm was broken..."
Pei Yi's pupils shimmered, and when he turned around, he spoke in a more urgent tone, "I, I don't have it, you took it!"
"You, you took a lot of things from me, beat me, and scolded me!" He rolled up his sleeves indiscriminately, and the cry he suppressed became more and more obvious, "Grandpa and uncle don't, don't you like me? You said they want, sell I exchanged money..."
The slender arms were covered with bruises that hadn't faded away, and with the uneasiness and fear that was finally buried in the dust, the expressions of everyone present changed.
The second half of the sentence sounded like an accusation of the nanny's words and deeds, but it was actually slapping their Pei family in the face of Gao Kai's housekeeper!
Uncle Kai frowned, and nodded at the right time, "I said, why is the young master still wearing long sleeves?"
Pei Yi lowered her head to hide her dark light, and couldn't help applauding this wave of divine assists.
Although he has only been through the book for a short time, he has already seen the virtues of everyone in the Pei family—
He is the best at pretending to save face, and it is much better to dismantle the situation in front of outsiders than to deal with it behind closed doors.
Even a nanny can step on the head of the rightful young master to beat, scold and steal at will? Wouldn't it make me laugh out loud when it got out?
Sure enough, Mr. Pei was so angry that his chest choked, and he shouted sharply, "Well, you shameless shrew, why do you usually chew your tongue in front of the young master?"
"I…"
Before Chen Rong could speak to explain, the housekeeper, Old Zheng, hurried back, holding a piece of white jade pendant in his hand, "Master, I just searched Chen Rong's small room and found it in her pillowcase. took this jade pendant."
Pei Yi snatched it back and held it tightly in her palm, "Mine!"
You don't need to look closely to know that it is the piece he 'lost'!
Mr. Pei couldn't tolerate sand in his eyes, not to mention that this matter was still embarrassing in front of outsiders. He knocked on the ground with his crutches, "Old Zheng, call the police immediately!"
Call the police?
Chen Rong trembled in fright, and her panicked eyes still seemed to glance at one place, how could this work? She doesn't want to go to jail!
As an outsider, Uncle Kai had a panoramic view of this scene. After all, he is a person who has experienced from a wealthy family like the Bo family. He immediately saw through the hidden deeds.
"Old man, since Pei and Bo are married, Young Master Pei is also a part of our Bo family, let me say something presumptuous—"
Uncle Kai looked at Mr. Pei, his tone neither overbearing nor humble.
"This nanny dared to steal things, and dared to do something to the young master. I'm afraid that other people would not be so presumptuous if they had ten guts. The police should interrogate them carefully, maybe..."
Uncle Kai seemed to be discussing with the Pei family couple, but in fact there was something in his words, "Someone is instigating or accomplices behind this."
The corner of Pei Yi's mouth curled up briefly, almost wanting to applaud Uncle Kai.
Originally, he just wanted to pull the other party to watch the play as a witness, but he didn't expect the other party to sing along with him.
The speaker has an intention, and the listener also has an intention.
Chen Rong rolled his eyes, and immediately crawled to Deng Xiuya's feet, "Ma'am! You can't do nothing! I only listened to your words to treat the young master like this!"
Deng Xiuya's complexion changed suddenly, and she slapped her backhand, "You bitch! What nonsense! When did I ask you to steal petty things!"
"..."
Chen Rong was stunned for two seconds by the slap, and cried out louder, "You instructed me! Young Master used to be sober occasionally, and you let me secretly toss and stimulate him so that he will be alive in this life. Go crazy!"
Pei Yi watched the farce calmly—
Chen Rong, who was broken and broken, grabbed Deng Xiuya's trousers tightly, no matter how hard the latter struggled to break free, he would not let go, so why did he look a little bit fractured?
"Old man, sir, I was deceived by lard! Young master, what a poor child, if my wife hadn't taught me every day, how could I dare to do these things under your noses?"
"Don't call the police! If I go to jail, how will I live the rest of my life? I can't just blame me for this!"
Chen Rong repented and cried to everyone, looking at Deng Xiuya with resentment still in his eyes, "Yes, yes, I, I still have WeChat records, you..."
As soon as the words started, Deng Xiuya panicked completely.
She didn't care about decency, she pulled Chen Rong's hair and wanted to pull him away, "Old Zheng! Why don't people pull this crazy woman out!"
Old Zheng got the cue from Mr. Pei's eyes, and quickly dragged Chen Rong out. Until the last moment when her voice disappeared, she was still accusing Deng Xiu of being inconsistent.
The room fell silent, but the atmosphere fell into embarrassment.
Deng Xiuya, who was pulled out by the nanny, was leaking from the bottom of her heart, and was thinking about how to explain the perfunctory—
Suddenly, Pei Yi looked over with uncertain and innocent eyes, and whispered to test before everyone, "Auntie, don't you like me?"
These words invisibly added a fire.
Pei Ruzhang's eyes turned hard, and he slapped his wife suddenly.
-Snapped!
Deng Xiuya covered her burning cheeks, her mind suddenly went blank, she never expected that the slap on Chen Rong's face just now would come back to her body!
"..."
Taking advantage of his wife's silence, Pei Ruzhang reprimanded her head and face, "I usually ask you to take good care of Xiaoyi, but you just ignore it?"
Up to now, he, who also beat and scolded his nephew behind his back, only wanted to clean himself up.
"Even if Chen Rong framed you, then she usually beats and scolds Xiaoyi, how come you, an aunt, don't notice it at all? How can you make me feel sorry for my brother!"
Deng Xiuya came back to her senses slowly, trembling with anger, "Okay! Pei Ruzhang! You can put on a show!"
Regardless of the elegant gestures she made in the past, she rushed out the door.
One farce after another.
Mr. Pei felt that he had lost all his face, but he had no choice but to hold on to his dignity, "Senior executive, I'm not strict with my family management, I'm making you laugh."
"Where is Mr. Pei? I'm just here to help the young master pack his luggage." Uncle Kai smiled slightly.
He understood everything, but he didn't reveal anything.
"My little grandson will ask the second young master and senior executives to take care of him in the future."
Mr. Pei gestured to Uncle Kai, and looked at Pei Yi with a mixture of sincerity and hypocrisy, "Xiao Yi, if you miss home, just say, I will let your little uncle pick you up at any time."
Pei Yi didn't say much, but nodded with feigned reluctance.
…
It wasn't until Pei Ruzhang helped Mr. Pei who was 'unwell' to leave that Pei Yi took the opportunity to hide in the bathroom.
He looked at himself in the mirror with wet eyes, and casually wiped away the water with his fingertips, "Isn't it a good face?"
Just wait and see.
This is just the beginning, sooner or later the Pei family's deceitful face will be torn off layer by layer!
