Reborn: The Godfather Has Fallen For Me

Chapter 167: Bickering, Special Gifts

The Ru Kiln tea set given by Ouyang Minyan was naturally from the Pei family. Ouyang Tang was clear about it, and everyone present was clear about it.

If it wasn’t for the fact that Ouyang Minyan had an affair with Pei Tianheng and the relationship between the Old Master, Ouyang Tang, and Pei Dongguo, the five siblings of the Ouyang family might not have agreed to the marriage of their illegitimate sister.

There had always been problems between the legitimate and the illegitimate. There was almost no one who could really help each other.

Therefore, when they saw that Ouyang Tang was extremely fond of the Ru Kiln tea set, the third daughter of Ouyang Tang, who was also a legitimate daughter, was the first to speak:

“Fourth Sister, this tea set is really good-looking. You must have spent a lot of effort to search for the exquisite Ru Kiln tea set. This year, even Ah Xi has returned. Among us sisters, only Fourth Sister is very fortunate.”

At the mention of Pei Xi, Ouyang Minyan’s face instantly fell. She did not even pretend to be happy. This time, even Grandfather Ouyang could see it clearly, not to mention Pei Dongguo who was beside her.

Ouyang Minyan did not like Pei Xi. This was not a secret in Ouyang Hall. Ouyang Minyan’s siblings all knew about it. Not only did they know, but they even used it to mock her several times.

Anyone who had two sons and a daughter would always put their children first. Their hearts would ache for them. However, Ouyang Minyan did not like her youngest son.

Perhaps she had been used to being tortured by the division of heirs and concubines since she was young. The Ouyang family had always had a rule that the eldest son would inherit 70% of the family business, and the second son would inherit the remaining 20%. The remaining 10% would be distributed to the illegitimate children according to the family head’s wishes.

Therefore, in the Ouyang family’s eyes, the reason why she valued the eldest son was because she knew that in the future, she would definitely be supported by the eldest son. Therefore, she had neglected the second son a little too much.

Moreover, the second son was not close to her. Instead, he was close to her old enemy, Pei Tianai. Therefore, she treated Pei Xi as if he did not exist and could not be bothered to look at him.

Now that her sister had used him to make fun of her once again, her heart was filled with hatred towards Pei Xi.

Ouyang Tang was extremely smart. He was a shrewd old man. He had long since played all these tricks between his children. However, this little daughter was indeed stupid. She had lived for more than half of her life and didn’t even know how to put on a show.

“Ah Xi is back to celebrate Grandpa’s birthday. Grandpa is very happy. Ah Xi, come here. Don’t leave this time. I heard from your grandpa that you have also joined Pei Corporation as an intern. Do your best. When the time comes, you can take over for your grandpa.”

Pei Xi obediently took a glance at his mother before he shyly and embarrassedly walked in front of Ouyang Tang.

He did not know whether his actions were intentional or not. In any case, in the eyes of Pei Dongguo and Ouyang Tang, he seemed to have suffered a great grievance. This made the two of them even more unhappy with Ouyang Minyan.

Naturally, Pei Li felt uncomfortable in his heart. However, he could only blame his mother for not knowing how to behave. How could he let his aunts and uncles ridicule her like this at this time?

After thinking for a moment, he took the initiative to smooth things over and said, “Grandfather is right. It’s best that Second Brother is back. It’s been a long time since our family has been reunited.”

Pei Li was smart. He did not mention the matter of entering the company. Even if the others wanted to hold something against him, it would be difficult to do so.

However, Pei Li’s little tricks against his uncles were naturally not up to par. He only heard his second brother, Ouyang Jinkong, say, “Ah Xi has always been sensible and obedient. Do your best. The burden your father and grandfather passed down is not light.”

“However, Ah Li has to study and study. It’s inevitable that his body will not be able to take it. Now that your brother, Ah Xi, has returned, the two of you can help each other. Ah Xi has already completed his studies and has also interned abroad for a few years. I’m afraid that he will need his brother’s help to get started faster. When the time comes, Ah Li might even need this brother to come and help.”

“Jinkong is right. I also feel that Ah Xi has worked in a foreign company for a few years. Regardless of whether it’s his ability or means, he’s not bad. That’s why he went to the headquarters to become a Vice President and learn from his father.”

“After Ah Li graduates next year, he’ll come to the headquarters. This way, the two brothers can be considered to complement each other.”

When Pei Li heard his grandfather, Pei Dongguo, say this in front of so many people, he could not believe his own ears.

Previously, his grandfather had personally said that he would enter the headquarters after the New Year. Usually, when he interned in the company, it was arranged for him to work in a branch company. The headquarters was a place where he wanted to show off his skills. How did it become that his younger brother, Pei Xi, entered first?

Moreover, he had directly followed his father and was even the Vice President? What exactly did Grandfather want to do? Why did he suddenly treat him like this now?

“En, the decision made in the eastern country is not bad. In any case, your family only has two brothers. They really need to support each other.”

Alright, since Ouyang Tang had spoken, Pei Li could only stifle his emotions and not speak anymore. In his heart, however, he wanted to implement that decision even more urgently.

“Alright, it’s time for you grandsons to present your gifts. Ah Xi, hurry over and properly kowtow to your grandfather a few times. It’s been much too long for you to hide all these years abroad. Many people almost don’t know what our Pei family’s Second Young Master looks like.”

At this moment, Pei Li had finally seen through some of it. It seemed that his grandfather’s main goal tonight was to let everyone in the upper-class society reacquaint themselves with the Pei family’s Second Young Master and help his good younger brother enter the upper-class society of the capital.

Just why did his grandfather do this? Didn’t their family hate this kind of thing the most?

Of course, no one knew what Pei Dongguo was thinking. Even if he wanted to ask his grandfather now, it couldn’t be now. Thus, at this moment, he could only respectfully kneel down and deliver his gifts, not daring to act rashly.

The few grandsons all knelt on the spot and presented their gifts one by one. Pei Xi’s gift was an ancient sword that he had found abroad, while Pei Li’s was a pair of exquisite jade.

When it was Pei Meimei’s turn, no one knew what she was thinking. She actually said that she had prepared a video, and her smile was rather enigmatic. No one knew why this video so mysterious.

Of course, Pei Meimei made it mysterious. She had spent a lot of effort to make this video. This video was not of anyone else. It was a video of Old Master Ouyang Tang’s early wedding and a few important events in the Ouyang family.

Although these things were archived in the family, many things were lost in the fire 20 years ago. She had heard her grandfather mention it a few times, so she had to spend a lot of effort to find it this time.

Especially the video of the old man getting married sixty years ago, which was the rarest.

When the projector and camera were set up, everyone looked at the huge screen curiously. However, they didn’t expect that when everyone was ready to present their praises, they would be greeted by a series of exclamations, a wave of exclamations sounded:

“Oh my god, who is this? How embarrassing…”

“Aiya, it’s the Eldest Young Master of the Pei family, Pei Li!”
