Chapter 429
"Mom, you also know that no one hopes her to come back, why must you insist, making everyone unhappy?" Pei JianGuo could not stand such questioning, and asked rhetorically: "Don't you see what Shuangshuang has done, you just know to indulge her unconditionally. At first when she was with Mu Yang, I advised her not to find a man much worse than herself. As a man myself, I know men's mindset better than anyone else. No man hopes to be dominated by a woman. Everyone will be happy to pursue an attractive and wealthy girl at the beginning, but after some time, they will feel psychologically imbalanced, especially those men who don't know how to work hard by themselves. They will only clip the wings of women to sink with them. But none of you were willing to listen to me. Shuangshuang blamed me for thinking too badly of people. You said Shuangshuang had no choice but to give up and be with Mu Yang, and they were already over 30 years old, not getting married would be laughable. At worst, the family could help her more in the future, supervise Mu Yang more, but what was the result?"
Why did Pei JianGuo have such thoughts?
Because when he faced Guo Momo who was admitted to university at that time, he had this sense of inferiority all along.
Everyone knew how precious university students were that year. When others complimented his wife for working hard, and praised Guo Momo's unlimited future prospects, he would feel very uncomfortable.
In fact, when they were together, Guo Momo had many complaints and was enduring him. He could almost imagine that after she graduated from university and got a good job, the gap between them would become wider and wider. He would become even more incompetent compared to Guo Momo.
So he was inferior and vicious at that time.
He even wanted to force her to give up going to university by all means, hoping that she would stay obediently at home, having children and doing housework.
Looking back now, he couldn't help feeling disgusted at his own thoughts back then.
But it could not be denied that this was exactly what he thought at that time.
Wang Yue looked at Pei JianGuo, "Are you blaming me?"
"I'm not blaming you, I just want you to be realistic." Pei JianGuo said, "You asked to transfer Shuangshuang away just a few months ago. Everyone in the family swept her scandalous reputation off the ground. I was even afraid of people at my company asking about my relationship with Pei Shuangshuang. The problem had just been resolved, and now you want to bring her back. But the problem is that no one hopes or welcomes her to come back. In this situation, what good will it do Shuangshuang if she comes back? Do you think that she is in the position of a victim now so no one ridicules and points fingers at her? No, after people's brief sympathy, they will still laugh at her stupidity behind her back, and even use disgusting words to comment on her body..."
"Slap!"
When Pei JianGuo insisted on leaving home for Guo Momo’s sake back then, Wang Yue didn’t even hit him.
But now, she really couldn't stand to listen anymore. Her daughter was not so unworthy in her heart. As her brother, he should not talk about his own sister like that either.
But from Pei JianGuo's point of view, he felt that his words were still very vague, precisely because Pei Shuangshuang was his sister.
He would feel heartache and sympathy for her, but others would not.
Although the words were harsh, it had to be admitted that this was the fact.
If it was someone else, the words would only be more harsh and disgusting.
But Wang Yue, who was blinded by kinship, could not see this clearly, nor would she understand.
"Pei JianGuo, you really disappoint me so much."
Everyone was not good to her, but her children had always been her heart. She could tolerate being hurt herself, but she could never allow them to be bullied by others.
And now, her son used such dirty words to describe her daughter. How could she accept it?
It would only make her feel that Pei JianGuo was too close to the Pei family, so he was influenced by them, and did not even take his own mother and sister seriously.
Wang Yue left in disappointment after being hit hard. Pei JianGuo was also uncomfortable in his heart, sitting languidly on the sofa.
Liu Chunhua hesitated for a moment, walked over carefully, tentatively put her hand on his face, and asked distressingly, "Does it hurt?"
Pei JianGuo shook his head. At over 30 years old, he was no longer the silly young man he used to be, and he understood that no matter kinship or family, they needed to be maintained in order to be harmonious.
Even if he just wanted to be alone for a while now, he did not reject Liu Chunhua's approach, but comforted her by pinching the back of her hand with his fingers, showing sufficient comfort.
"My mom is like this. She always wants everyone to listen to her. If she comes to teach you again in the future, just pretend not to hear her and tell me when I come back. I will talk to her."
"It's ok. I really did many things improperly. Mom means well to teach me." Liu Chunhua said.
Pei JianGuo pulled his mouth corner hard. He knew clearly in his heart whether it was true.
She had been like this for a long time. Whenever she was in a bad mood, she would make the whole family restless. In the past, she would vent her anger on Grandpa and Second Uncle. Now that she could no longer get to the Pei family people, and Shuangshuang and him had gone too far as her own children, she could only take it out on Liu Chunhua.
In fact, Pei JianGuo understood everything, but he had always avoided it since he was young, and was used to pretending to be muddled about many things. He didn't care who was hurt as long as the fire didn't burn him.
However, compared to before, he was much better now. He had changed his wife several times, and they all left him. No matter what, he should have learned something.
If he got divorced again, he would be the only one embarrassed.
"Chunhua, go and cook me an egg to apply." Pei JianGuo actually was not that delicate. He just wanted to send her away and have some quiet time for himself.
"Ok, I'll go now." Liu Chunhua turned away with a distressed look on her face, then immediately changed her expression after turning around.
If they had a child, she and Pei JianGuo would be a very good couple, but without children, this had always been Liu Chunhua's biggest concern.
She still craved the life together with him, but would no longer be full of him like before.
She was selfish by nature. Otherwise, she would not have plotted against Pei JianGuo, and still in such a cruel way.
Perhaps neither of them knew that when she saw Wang Yue slap Pei JianGuo, and then saw Wang Yue's expression of being extremely angry with Pei JianGuo, she actually felt extremely comfortable inside, and even hoped they would have a fight.
The eggs were already cooked, and Pei JianGuo had gone to the bedroom. He lay flat on the bed with his hands pillowing his head, squinting his eyes slightly, still wearing his socks.
After all, he was a man, and Wang Yue didn't use much force either, so the slap didn't leave any trace on his face.
But Liu Chunhua still applied the warm egg back and forth carefully, while ridiculing in her heart that a grown man could be so delicate.
When the egg touched his cheek, Pei JianGuo reached out and took it over, "I'll do it myself."
Liu Chunhua didn't insist. She sat on the edge of the bed, turned around, took off his socks, and covered him with a quilt. She said considerately, "Sleep for a while first. There are no ingredients at home. I'm going to buy some."
From Pei JianGuo's perspective, Liu Chunhua was a gentle and considerate wife, after all, she had always acted like this.
Even if it was pretending, it was not easy to keep it up for so long.
When people are particularly helpless, they tend to get close to those who are good to them.
"Don't go shopping. Let's eat out tonight." Pei JianGuo grabbed her arm and pulled hard, and she fell into his arms.
