Truly of the Same Bloodline (3)

As the father, using oneself as the standard in teaching one’s daughters how to attract another man’s attention……..
As the two sister’s mother, the more she listened, the darker her face grew. What was this having her daughters treated as? Rushing to seduce, and even two daughters together, exactly was the Pei clan a large influential clan or a low-grade brothel? “Husband………..”
The man turned around, his expression rather cold and stern, “Properly prepare the clothes and accessories for the two of them.”
With the Pei clan leader ‘setting himself as the example’, the daughter-in-laws of the Pei clan main residence simply had no authority to speak. The more unyielding one was, the faster one would die.
The two sisters’ complexion, this while, were also a bit pale. They believed themselves esteemed and noble, yet now they needed to go do this kind of thing. If outsiders were to find out, what face do they have to face others?
Perhaps knowing what they were thinking, the man’s face grew increasingly dark, “If Pei Xiu Ying stays behind, and you two aren’t able to stay behind, then just find a place and end yourselves on your own, no need to come back. You two have numerous brothers and sisters, it’s not much with you two, and no less minus you two. Useless trash naturally don’t need to be kept around to waste money and grain.”
The two sisters looked to him in disbelief. Was this really that gently and scholarly father of their memories? However, from his expression, they only saw seriousness. In that moment, their complexion was as pale as paper. They have always been proud of the fact that they were daughters of the Pei clan, but in the end? In their own birth father’s eyes, they were just like as if dispensable objects. This kind of blow was practically ten times, no, a hundred times, more unbearable than getting deliberately schemed against by Pei Xiu Ying, yet in the end, be the ones to get severely punished.
“Haven’t you two always wanted suppress Pei Xiu Ying? This is the best opportunity. In the future, when Jin Qinwang gloriously ascend the throne, you two will become the most honorable women of the Pei clan. Even when the clan leader meet you two, all have to kowtow. When time comes, even if because of today’s matter, you become angry with this father, you can very much use ways to retaliate in the future.”
After giving a club, one naturally also needed to give a honeyed jujube.
“Enough, I still have matters to attend to. You two just properly prepare.” His mannerism in leaving was very much like his old man.
“Mother…………”The two sisters’ eyes swirled with tears.
The madam also uncontrollably cried, “Mother can’t do anything either, can’t do anything, you two, you two…………..”
No matter how they cried, they were still unable to change the final outcome. Doing as told, perhaps there was still a way out…………..
The next day, in total, it was the twin sisters, in addition to Pei Xiu Ying, as well as three other beautiful young ladies that were directly picked by the Pei clan leader madam, who towards this matter, were further without a clue.
Six girls, as beautiful as flower, as delicate as jade, after today, perhaps will walk towards completely different fates.
When the twin sisters looked towards Pei Xiu Ying, it was no longer purely hatred out of jealousy, even carrying a bit of pity. So what if she was the Pei clan’s most outstanding young lady. The ones standing together here right now were all the same, no one was more noble than the other.
Pei Xiu Ying appeared very much indifferent, no different from before. However, in her heart, it wasn’t all that tranquil. Not because she now had a few more opponents, she simply didn’t have them taken seriously, but rather, because she was made to stand together with them. This was practically just a great insult towards her. However, this was her great-grandfather’s decision. She had no right to criticize. As the most considerate, and the most virtuous young lady, even if it wasn’t her great-grandfather’s decision, she still wouldn’t say anything. She just needed to display her most outstanding side at all times.

In the end, this wasn’t anything glorious, so naturally can’t make noise. Even in their own family, only very few were aware that the clan leader madam was heading out.
While passing through Min County, although the two families still haven’t completely torn all face, the relationship was still exceptionally tense. At the time, all the Pei Min-shi had returned to their maiden family to deliver ‘an important gift’, and even now, all still haven’t gone back. The Min clan didn’t let them go back, and the Pei clan leader also pressured to not let anyone come get them. It was obvious, the two families were both betting on the other party to lower their heads first.
The Pei clan leader madam lifted open the horse carriage’s window curtain, looking towards the direction of the Min clan’s old residence, deeply sighing before giving an order and continuing on their way.
Because the fleet of carriages were low-key enough, they naturally didn’t arouse any big disturbances. However, when Min Yu Han left, he’d warned his older brother, the Min clan leader, that within a short period of time, the Pei clan certainly will have movements, so as long as it’s something coming from Pei County, all need to pay attention, especially horse carriages with the Pei clan’s mark. No matter how inconspicuous, all need to deliver him news ahead of them, especially if heading towards Chuanzhou Fu. As such, the Pei clan leader madam’s party, unsurprisingly, just fell into the Min clan’s eyes.
The Pei clan leader madam eagerly wanted to meet with Li Hong Yuan, but as soon as she recalled her purpose, she seemingly was also unable to face. As such, with this kind of conflicting feelings in her heart, she didn’t hasten the journey, nor deliberately slowed down the advancing speed.
The Pei clan naturally also have a residence in Chuanzhou Fu, and residing in it were also people from the main residence. Of the six young ladies, five needed to address the other party as older tang brother.
Min Yu Han had received news first. Not long after this party arrived, he let someone slightly make some inquires, and just roughly guessed the identities of the main party members. His eyes were a sheet of ice. That old thing, sure enough, won’t change his mind that easily. However, right now, he rather want to see, what kind of expression that old fool will make when something he believed would certainly succeed, to only amount to nothing in the end.
Min Yu Han’s side lately also wasn’t that tranquil. The main reason being that because he’d proposed towards Pei Xiu Ying, that grandnephew of his that liked Pei Xiu Ying had started to make a fuss. It truly was having lost his soul to a beauty, not caring about anything at all, disregarding their statuses, and acting out in all kinds of ways. Min Yu Han naturally didn’t bicker with him.
And Miss Yuan Yuan, as the younger sister, naturally worried for her older brother. Moreover, her relationship with Pei Xiu Ying was also pretty good, but this didn’t mean that this girl just completely used her emotions to think. Under normal circumstances, she was all very open-minded, but it didn’t mean that she was just a dull and simple-minded one. On contrary, on certain matters, she was actually very sharp, just like this matter. She’d already sensed something wrong. What kind of a person was tang great-uncle Yu Han? Although she didn’t interact with much, she was still certain that he definitely wasn’t someone that would do things without considering the consequences. As such, she didn’t make noise or throw a tantrum, even urging her own older brother, afterwards preparing to look for her tang great-uncle to chat.
Perhaps because of Pei Xiu Ying’s matter, Min Yu Han right now actually quite liked Yuan Yuan. Perhaps she wasn’t outstanding, and perhaps also not a stunning beauty, but her thoughts were simple, and purely wonderful. And while interacting, one would also feel that the outside world also wasn’t as dirty as one imagined. As such, when Yuan Yuan came looking, he also didn’t say too much, just telling her, “…………..Trust great-uncle, Pei Xiu Ying isn’t a wise friend, stay a little farther from her.”
Miss Yuan Yuan nodded. Some things probably weren’t really as wonderful as she viewed them to be. The bridges that tang great-uncle has crossed were even more than the paths she has walked, and between them, there also weren’t any special connections, so it should just purely be kind advice. As such, she didn’t ask anymore.

I’m glad Miss Yuan Yuan is insightful and can see the situation clearly. I’d hate for her to be dragged into the muck by that Pei hussy.
A bit of respect for miss Yuan Yuan. She doesnt seem to be stupid, naive or arrogant.
Pity for the twins for being treated like that.
chapter title is very appropriate. The sons are just as scheming and scummy as the father, believing that reality must follow their whims and delusions. Like just chucking women at LHY will actually work ROFL.
Pei Xiu Ying still a egotistic bitch it seems.
I think the Min clan really made the right choice in following Min Yu Han’s views to disconnect from the Pei clan. They dont want to be sunk as well.
