Quick Transmigration: Always Just a Passerby

Chapter 258 The Fake Young Master in Ancient Times 1

Pei Family Corner Gate.

Jiang Ping was being probed all over by several servants.

There were also onlookers who covered their mouths and laughed, laughing that the Pei family's most precious young master was actually a fake.

Hey.

This is really bad timing.

Jiang Ping stored the valuables hidden on the original owner's body into his spatial storage.

With a lowered head, he used the original owner's original strength to knock several servants aside, picked up the trampled undergarment bundle on the ground, and ran out.

However, what happened next was beyond the Pei family's control.

Jiang Ping thought that the original owner was not even seven years old, so he simply took off his outer clothes without a care, and ran while crying, occasionally blurting out a few keywords.

After others turned left and right and finally disappeared, passersby and neighbors pieced together what had happened.

The young master of the Pei family was switched at birth.

The babies were switched at birth by members of the Pei family.

It's hard to say whether the Pei family deliberately switched the babies at birth.

Pei Shao, the young master of the Pei family, somehow got wind of the news and ran off with the savings of a farmer to search for his relatives in the prefectural city.

The Pei family is unethical and refuses to send the child back.

The Pei family drove the fake young master, Pei Ping, to the estate, and their servants ransacked his belongings.

Everyone felt empty after watching such a good show.

He ignored the Pei family servants' explanations.

They dispersed in small groups to find places to drink.

"That Pei Ping kid has a really strong voice, he certainly doesn't seem like a member of the Pei family, hahaha!"

"Pei Ping, Pei Shao... these names... they certainly don't seem like they don't know the truth."

"Old Pei really doesn't know any better when it comes to this."

"That Pei Ping, though young, is not someone to be trifled with."

"You...don't you have any doubts?"

"Oh, what are you doubting? You've only just met Old Pei, you don't know about his complicated relationship with his wife, tsk."

"..."

Xiao Yi was dressed as an idle man.

He craned his neck to get closer to the several shopkeepers.

"Our Master Pei was quite a prominent figure in his youth!"

The merchant turned his head.

Xiao Yi raised his chin and spoke proudly.

"My father used to eat around the Pei family's neighborhood. This Master Pei, Pei Xu, and his wife, Lin Qingyao..."

Pei Xu was unaware that someone was deliberately revealing his past.

After all, not being able to find that little bastard Pei Ping was enough to give him a headache.

The thought of Qingyao's tantrum later made Pei Xu's heart flutter. The servant in the study, sensing the situation, took off his clothes...

Pei Ping felt like his eyes were about to be blinded by the spiciness.

"Tong'er, what about Pei Xu's promise of 'one love for one lifetime'? This guy is a two-way plug."

Tongzi chuckled incoherently.

"Just tell me if he has taken a concubine, has a mistress, has a lover, or has any illegitimate children."

"Did the original owner reincarnate? Should we show him if he didn't?"

"He's long gone. Everyone's been very open-minded lately, wanting to leave behind good karma and fortune so they can be reborn into a better life."

Pei Ping lay supine on the grass in the space.

Several little lambs with bleating signs were walking around trying to get attention.

It occasionally reveals its thick wool, muscular legs, hard hooves, wise eyes, and wicked expression.

"Hey, have you noticed? They look both old and small."

"My Ping, although you're not wrong, do you dare say it out loud? Don't try to communicate secretly."

Lisuo changed himself into a set of coarse cloth clothes.

Pei Ping gave Tongzi a reasoned and well-founded answer.

"I just didn't want to dampen the little lamb's enthusiasm, did I?"

"Hey, is my lazy colleague done with his work yet?"

Tongzi took a look.

Why aren't you done with your work?

Xiao Yi thoroughly investigated the matter of the original owner's fake father's family, and it's unclear whether Pei Xu will suffer a cerebral hemorrhage tomorrow.

*

The original owner was Pei Ping.

As you can see, he's a fake young master.

A month ago, the young master Pei Shao returned to the Pei family. The Pei family did not want to make a fuss and only held a small banquet.

Pei Shao did not get the result he wanted.

Without distinguishing right from wrong, they went to the original owner's room every day to make veiled accusations.

Even if he's an old ghost who's been reborn.

Pei Shao hates the Pei family to death, but he pretends to be stupid and innocent on the surface.

He tried hard not to recall his pathetic days before his rebirth, not to think about Pei Ping's pretense of being virtuous and upright, and not to think about Pei Ping's usurpation and feigned innocence.

A second chance at life.

The two did not interact much.

Pei Shao carefully discovered and confirmed that Pei Ping was not valued by the Pei family.

So Pei Ping, this genuine child, suffered.

She used a series of underhanded tactics, feigning helplessness and innocence, and directed all her anger at the original owner of the body from both lifetimes.

Sometimes Pei Shao would even insist on dancing in front of Pei Xu and Lin Qingyao.

Pei Xu remained quite indifferent to the dispute between his two "sons," only praising his wife for giving birth to a good son in a strange tone.

The original owner used this as an excuse to leave the Pei family.

Return to life in Shijing Village.

As expected, Pei Xu rejected him again.

Pei Shao was puzzled, and the original owner was also confused. After the incident had subsided for a few days, Pei Shao finally found an excuse to bother Lin Qingyao for several days and sent the original owner to the manor to reflect on her mistakes.

The original owner was overjoyed.

He packed a few clothes and shoes, and also hid a lot of loose silver on his person.

Pei Shao, unwilling to let the original owner have even the slightest good life, hinted to his servants to plunder as much as possible, and whoever found anything could keep it.

That's how the scene unfolded when Jiang Ping arrived.

The original owner was stripped down to only his undergarments and sent to the estate where he became bedridden and endured a full month before passing away.

The Pei family breathed a sigh of relief upon receiving the news.

Pei Xu feigned remorse and said, "It's my fault for letting that child down."

Lin Qingyao lost a foster son she had never cared for. She stayed at the Buddhist temple for a few days, and finally fainted from hunger while wearing a pretty white dress.

When I woke up again.

Lin Qingyao and Pei Xu reconciled in the Buddhist hall.

Pei Xu said he shouldn't have been jealous because Qingyao gave birth to someone else's child, so jealous that he went crazy, switched the child, and even had to have a fake child in the house to get in the way.

Lin Qingyao said she was unwilling, unwilling to let Pei Lang grieve for her, and unwilling to have a grudge against Pei Lang for the rest of her life.

Pei Shao was perfectly fine.

He began living the life of an invisible person in the Pei family, just like the original owner.

...

Pei Ping sorted out the relationships within the Pei family.

"So Pei Shao is the illegitimate son of Lin Qingyao and a noblewoman from the capital? The original owner's entire family was involved in this scheme, and their unfortunate deaths were all part of this family's plot?"

"A nobleman is pleased that a married woman possesses dragon-like aura; Lin Qingyao's choice was not wrong. It's a pity that a time-traveling woman in the capital becomes empress...hehe...Pei Shao's biological father's rebellion failed."

"Then...should we...hehe...make Pei Shao acknowledge his father first?"

"Absolutely, absolutely, my Ping, you are so kind."

They looked at each other and smiled.

The rustling of the banyan leaves applauded them.

The original owner's wishes were relatively simple: to find his parents and live a good life together, to repay Erniu who had taken care of him on the estate, and to take revenge on the three members of the Pei family.

The original owner didn't believe it.

Has Pei Shao not heard from the servants of the Pei family what kind of good life he, the fake young master, actually has in the Pei family?

Tongzi was filled with righteous indignation.

The wolfhound's face was full of anger.

"That's right, Pei Shao, that old devil, is still arguing with a seven-year-old kid even though he's old. He should be arguing with his own mother."

Pei Ping couldn't help but pick at his ear.
