Chapter 468 A concubine is a concubine, a wife is a wife

"Mo Yan is following me now. If you want to see him, you have to tell me first. What does it mean to come here to snatch someone away privately?" Gu Ziyan said angrily.

Manager Fang said with a smile, "Aren't you afraid that the young lady is still angry? The young lady is alone, and the young master has already known his fault. The young master has locked up Concubine Jiao."

Gu Ziyan said sarcastically: "This princess is not your young lady. From now on, you can either call me princess or Miss Gu."

Seeing that the young lady was not convinced, Manager Fang said, "Even if you are divorced, the child still belongs to the Pei family. It is only right for you to go back and see him."

"That's right, but when the child is on leave, I will take him to see the old Duke."

After saying that, he looked at Mo Yan and said, "Let's go back."

"Okay! Mother."

Gu Ziyan took Mo Yan and left.

What happened today made her alert. It seemed that she had to arrange two guards for Mo Yan.

Shen Xia followed Gu Ziyan back to the carriage.

It seems that the Pei family, seeing that they can't convince Gu Ziyan, have started to take advantage of the child.

The steward went back.

I saw a bunch of people sitting in the hall.

He stepped forward and said respectfully, "Master, the young master has been picked up by the Madam."

The old Duke frowned: "Didn't I tell you to go earlier? You must bring the person back."

"Master, when we saw the young master coming out, we planned to pull him back, but today the young mistress went to pick up the child herself, and she was with the princess. They also brought guards, so we couldn't take him away by force."

The old Duke listened to the steward's words.

I understand.

"Well, all right! Go down!"

Then he looked at the group of people in the room.

He glanced at the old lady impatiently: "Look at what you do all day long."

The old lady lowered her head cautiously, with complex lights flashing in her eyes. Her eyes showed worry about the Duke's current situation, and also hidden hatred for Gu Ziyan that was difficult to dispel.

She knew very well that she couldn't speak carelessly at this moment, for fear of angering the Duke and making the already bad situation even more difficult to handle.

Her son was demoted two levels, which was like a bolt from the blue. The old lady gnashed her teeth and blamed all the faults on Gu Ziyan, thinking constantly about how to make this "troublemaker" disappear from her sight forever.

It would be fine if she didn't come back, but if she came back, the old lady secretly swore that she would let her taste her power.

The Duke's face was gloomy, and his tone revealed a hint of helplessness and fatigue. He slowly said, "Send that concubine to the manor for a while. Out of sight, out of mind."

At this time, Pei Yuanqi was extremely anxious. He knelt on the ground and said anxiously, "Father, please don't do that! Jiao'er is pregnant. How can she go to the manor? The environment there is terrible. It's not as comfortable and carefree as the Duke's Mansion. Besides, the baby in Jiao'er's belly is important. What if she gets frightened?"

The Duke glanced at Pei Yuanqi, a trace of dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes. He snorted heavily and said, "It's all your fault. I've said it before, a concubine is a concubine and a wife is a wife. Don't turn the tables on me."

"You just won't listen. Now it's fine. We're really getting divorced. Do you think you can easily find a good second wife? Look at your current appearance. Do you still have the demeanor of a child from an aristocratic family?"

The old lady echoed, "The worst that can happen is to make Jiao'er the legitimate wife. Anyway, Gu Ziyan has not brought any benefits to our Pei family. Instead, she has caused so many troubles." Her words were full of disgust and disdain for Gu Ziyan.

After hearing what the old lady said, the Duke flew into a rage. He stood up abruptly, slammed the table, and shouted, "This is simply nonsense - what do you know? The distinction between legitimate and illegitimate children cannot be reversed at will. If everyone acts like you, the Pei family will be defeated by you sooner or later."

He became increasingly disappointed with his original wife. He had originally placed high hopes on his son, but she had turned him into a useless person without any knowledge at all, only knowing how to act recklessly.

And they won't weigh the pros and cons.

Then he looked at Pei Yuanqi again. He was exactly like his mother in many ways.

He does things without considering the consequences.

If it weren't for her reputation, I would have divorced her long ago.

The old Duke also had only one concubine, but that concubine was brought into the family later, a illegitimate daughter of an aristocratic family.

Whether in terms of knowledge or interpersonal relationships, the old lady and the Duke's concubine cannot be compared.

Although she is a concubine's daughter, she is also well-educated.

The old lady was the Duke’s original wife from his hometown.

Because of his career, he did not divorce his wife and remarry.

Although the two of them usually only say three sentences before becoming impatient.

But the Duke will still weigh the pros and cons.

But tolerating it for years?

The results are becoming more and more excessive.

Turn a home upside down.

The old lady felt embarrassed when she saw the Duke yelling at her in front of so many people.

He looked at his son Pei Yuanqi with a look of grievance.

"Son! Your father only cares about the mother and son in Fengyuan. I have worked hard for this family for so many years, but he can't see it."

The old lady cried and complained, recounting the difficulties she had faced over the years and how she sold all her dowry to support the old Duke when he took the imperial examination.

Just like spilling the beans, I have said it all from the time I got married until now.

The successful man likes to have someone around him who always reminds him of his unpleasant past.

So, every word the old lady said stepped on the Duke's bottom line.

Finally, the old Duke couldn't stand it anymore and said: "If you feel that the Duke's Mansion owes you something, you can also divorce."

After saying that, he didn't even bother to look at her and strode away.

When the old lady heard the word divorce.

It was like a bolt from the blue.

She already has one foot in the coffin.

How can we get divorced?

He is a heartless, ruthless and disloyal person!

Although I feel aggrieved.

Pei Yuanqi saw that his father looked unhappy, so he comforted him, "Mom, please stop talking! Father is just angry."

The old lady looked at the Duke who disappeared from her sight and said, "He went to that little bitch again."

Pei Yuanqi actually sometimes felt that his mother was being unreasonable, but his mother was wholeheartedly doing it for him.

His father only has one concubine, which is already quite good.

I don’t know what his mother is struggling with?

But it’s not right to see him piss his father off like this!

Pei Yuanqi asked: "Mother, where did you hide Ziyan's dowry?"

When the old lady heard this, she asked, "When did I touch her dowry?"

Pei Yuanqi said: "Mom, she didn't take anything with her when she left, just give it to her! Ziyan said that as long as I give her the dowry, she will forgive me."

Pei Yuanqi also regrets it now.

After Gu Ziyan left, everything in the yard felt wrong.

In the past, she prepared everything for him, including clothes and food.

Looking at it now, I can’t bear to watch it.
