C244 Save the Chicken Leg
Pei Yichen nodded, he remembered now. Previously, in the summer, they did say that they would meet properly with the Lin Family people on their birthdays.
Pei Sizhu sighed, "Later on, you should ask when the birthday banquet is held in the summer. No matter what, it's the first birthday banquet for the child after he returns, and we need to properly organize it, so Lin Family people will know that we didn't mistreat his daughter."
As a son-in-law, he had to please his father-in-law no matter what. Only Pei Yichen, who had always been high up in the sky, could not understand this logic!
Pei Yichen nodded, he understood what his aunt meant, "When the time comes, I will leak out the news to the media. The news of my marriage with Xia Chen, the news of my children, including the news that they are Lin Family's daughters, will spread out!"
When Pei Sizhu saw that he understood what she meant, she nodded in satisfaction. No matter what, in the future, the two of them would be part of Pei Family and she did not wish for any scandal to arise again. A good family life was more important than anything else.
"Mommy ~"
In the kitchen, Xiaomi looked at the pickled chicken leg in the summer and felt like drooling. If she could, she would eat a few raw to satisfy her craving. As long as they entered her stomach, they would all belong to her!
"What's wrong?"
In the summer, when he massaged the chicken leg, his eyes were smiling. He could already guess what kind of heart this little girl had now.
"Mommy, can I …"
Xiaomi blinked her big watery eyes, wanting to melt her mother's heart and get her mother to agree to her request.
"OK ~ ~ Can I eat two chicken legs today?"
Xia Xia couldn't help but laugh. This girl was not stupid at all. When she said that she could eat a chicken leg, the final result would be that Xiaoye's leg would be eaten by her.
Rather than that, it was better to agree to let her eat two from the beginning. That way, she would be full early, and Xiaoye could even have chicken legs and a meal together.
Xiaomi pouted. Having her thoughts seen through by Mommy, she immediately felt guilty, as if she had done something shameful. Her cute appearance made Xiaoye, who was at the side, laugh.
When Xia Xia saw Pei Yichen's smile, he couldn't help but exclaim inwardly. Such a handsome face, I don't know who will capture it in the future. Thinking about it this way, I feel really sad …
Everyone said that their son would be happy to have a wife, and their daughter would be sad to marry, so they had to have a son and not have a daughter.
But why were the two of them so reluctant?
She probably wouldn't be willing to let her son get married, right?
Xia Xia shook his head, driving all those random thoughts out of his mind, and focused on massaging the chicken leg. Perhaps only the chicken leg could comfort him from his injured state.
"Mommy, after I've eaten the chicken leg today, can I save all the chicken leg that I have in the future and not eat it?"
Little Mi bit her finger, frowning as she endured the pain. It was clear that she had made the decision against her will.
Little Mi loved to eat chicken legs, but in order for her to restrain herself, Pei Yichen only allowed her to eat one per day. One of them already made her complain, so why did she suddenly ask for it so actively?
What kind of godly technique was this?
"Why?"
After asking this question in the summer, Xiaomi bit her lips and didn't say anything. Instead, she glanced at Xiaoye, making Xiaoye very confused. He tried to recall that he didn't offend this little girl.
"Xiaoye, can you help Mommy wash the carrots? I'll take Xiaomi to get the mushrooms."
Xia Xia took off his disposable gloves, washed his hands, and then pulled Pei Xiami outside.
After walking to the dining room and seeing that there was no one around, Xia Xia squatted down and said to Xiao Mi, "Xiao Mi, Mimi is very curious as to why you made such a decision. Can you tell Mimi?"
In the matter of children's education, summer gives the child enough respect.
Little Mi bit her lips, looking as if she was struggling with herself.
Summer wasn't in a hurry, she just quietly squatted in front of her and waited for her to speak. If the child really didn't want to speak, summer naturally wouldn't be difficult to talk about, but this was far too abnormal for a child. If she didn't, she wouldn't be able to sleep soundly.
Xiaomi hesitated for a while before she finally nodded, "Mummy, my birthday is coming up. I don't have the money to buy a present for my brother, so can I save the chicken drumstick and give it to him for his birthday?"
Xiaomi hugged Summer's neck and acted like a spoiled child, afraid that Mommy would not agree to her request.
Summer heart is warm, have such a pair of warm heart of the child, really is more important than anything.
"Okay, Mommy promises you!"
Xia Zhi solemnly nodded and quickly tapped on the tip of Xiaomi's nose. To be able to save his favorite drumstick for his brother, Xiaomi's present to Xiaoye was too warm and cute.
People always gave the most precious and important things they thought to their loved ones, so in Xiaomi's heart, her brother had a lot of weight, even though she was usually the one who exploited her brother without any status.
Summer had even begun to daydream, Pei Xiaye saw a pile of chicken legs in front of her face, she was so moved that she was crying.
"Then, Mommy, you have to help me keep this a secret. You can't let brother know in advance, I want to give brother a big surprise!"
Xiaomi grinned, not forgetting to ask her mother.
Summer nodded. "Okay, I promise you."
"Pull the hook."
Little Mi tilted her head and stretched out her meaty little finger.
"Hang yourself on the hook! A hundred years is not allowed to change! Whoever changes will become a puppy!"
"Seal ~"
The two of them made an agreement and couldn't help but laugh. Then, they went to get the mushrooms and returned to the kitchen.
By the time all the ingredients were prepared, Uncle Wu had already arranged for someone to install the barbecue rack. The ingredients were brought out one by one. The family was roasting, chatting and having fun in the garden.
Because a family had children, they were especially lively.
Xiaomi and Xiaoye performed a crosstalk performance for them, and Xiaomi sang another song and danced, causing the whole family to laugh non-stop.

However, when the fragrance of the roasted meat wafted out, regardless of how everyone tried to coax her, she resolutely stopped her performance and buried her head in her struggle against the delicious food.
Old Master Pei was too old to eat barbecue. After Wu Tie stewed egg soup for him, he sat on the wheelchair with the egg soup in hand, looking at the happy faces of his grandchildren. Even the old man revealed a rare smile.
He took advantage of the time while Pei Yichen and Pei Yuanfan were chatting to signal Xia Xia to come to him.
Xia Zhi was stunned for a moment before he put down the straw in his hand and walked over, "Grandpa, you called me?"
Old Master Pei stared at the summer for two minutes, then sighed helplessly, "You little girl, you really have some tricks up your sleeves, actually coaxing my grandson to go around in circles. Let me tell you, if you want to enter the Pei Family, you have to pass through me!"
Old Master Pei was a bit unhappy. In his mind, the best daughter-in-law was Ning Xia. But now that the summer came, it was within reason that Old Master Pei found it hard to accept.
After all, he had already forgotten who was who.
He knew that Old Master Pei was sick and delirious, which was why he hated him so much. He wasn't angry, but he was sad. An old man who used to be nice to him was now in such a pitiful state.
"Grandpa, I'm Ning Xia. Have you forgotten? I was married to Yichen before, and it was you who arranged the wedding?"
Xia Xia smiled, thinking of that wedding without the groom, he suddenly felt funny. At that time, he was really young, facing such an obvious insult from Pei Yichen. To think that she would be able to calmly complete the wedding ceremony … Hmm, she respected herself as a man!
"You're not Ning Xia, you're Gou." The fox spirit that lures my grandson, you can forget about entering my Pei Family's home! "
"I'm telling you, you'd better leave by yourself. Otherwise, I'll kill you, and I definitely won't let you confuse my grandson and hurt Ning Xia!"
As the old man spoke, he sprinkled the bowl of egg soup onto Xia Xia's face.
He'd never thought that the old tutor would be so angry that he'd suddenly make a move himself. He'd been scared stiff in that moment.
"Summer!"
Pei Yichen heard the sound and immediately rushed over. He held Xia Xia in his arms to check if he was scalded.
Summer met Pei Yichen's concerned eyes, smiled and shook his head, "It's okay, the egg soup is not hot anymore."
If it was scalding hot, it was possible that she would be disfigured. Fortunately …
"Yichen, how can you let Ning Xia down. How many grievances did her Pei Family suffer, how can you not protect her? Being hooked up with such a vixen, I am truly disappointed in you!"
The honored tutor had never thought that the grandson he'd always been proud of would actually do such a foolish thing!
"Is this woman Lin Qingfeng? She just changed her name to 'Summer'. It was all because of me that you people thought this old man was stupid enough to trick me, right? Let me tell you, as long as I'm alive, I won't let Lin Qingfeng in. Don't even think about hurting Ning Xia! "
The old man was obviously extremely angry. As he spoke, he patted the handle of the wheelchair.
However, the words that came out of his mouth made everyone unable to get angry. In the end, he felt too guilty for not protecting the summer, which was why he remembered it in his heart for so many years.
Therefore, even though he couldn't hurry any further, he still knew that Ning Xia was his grandson's wife, someone who could accompany his grandson for a lifetime.
"Grandfather, how can you believe it? The one in front of you is Ning Xia, that bad woman, Lin Qingfeng, she's already been captured and won't be doing anything bad in the future. So, grandpa, please don't be conflicted, okay?"
Pei Yuanfan squatted beside his grandpa to persuade him, but the old man had already confirmed the answer in his heart. No matter who it was, no matter what he said, he wouldn't believe it!
"Yichen, I am too disappointed with you. You were actually bewitched by a woman's beauty!"
The old man didn't care and decided that summer was a bad guy, so he just turned around and left. He didn't give them any chance to explain and turned the wheelchair in order to move to their room.
"Mommy ~"
Xiao Mi and Xiaoye stared at his back with hatred. They hated him and hated him too. Although he treated them very well, he always hurt Mommy. This was unbearable for them.
To them, Mommy was the best person in the world, how could they allow others to bully her? But since this person was daddy's grandpa, they couldn't just rush up and beat him up.
When Xia Xia looked at Xiaoye tightly clenching his small fist and giving Pei Yichen a look without a sound, Pei Yichen also frowned. Grandfather's stubbornness was also a kind of harm to these two children.
"Let's go up and take a bath first."
Pei Sizhu broke the awkward silence. No matter what, this matter was no longer easy to handle. The old man had been swift and decisive when he was young, and it was difficult to convince him when he was old.
In the end, the party ended up with an unhappy end. After the summer bath, he coaxed the two children to sleep before returning to his room. Seeing that Pei Yichen also didn't sleep, he frowned.
"Summer, I wonder if we could move out first."
Pei Yichen pursed his lips. He knew that doing this in summer was not fair, and although he did not do anything wrong in summer, he had to move out from Pei Family Villa. If people outside knew about this, who knows what kind of nasty words they would say.
But he didn't want to see the summer suffering in front of his grandfather again.
If this went on for a long time, he was afraid that he would be the first one to go crazy.
Lowering his eyes in the summer, moving out was indeed the best ending, but since the old man was already this old, wouldn't ten thousand years be a little too bleak if he left his grandson behind because she suffered a little grievance?
Moreover, even though the old gramps was against him, it was only because he treated him as a stranger. He was against him, and only because he wanted to seek justice for 'Ning Xia'.
"I can't go."
Summer frowned, suddenly relieved.
