stern wife

Chapter 139 What are you panicking about?
"But," Wu suddenly changed the subject and said:
"Is the old saying good, you know people, you don't know your heart, so my mother didn't dare to make a conclusion that that person must be a good one, so I asked your second sister if there was a type or family that she liked, and she became shy. Oh, she's still a little girl..."

Pei Xiaoran was afraid that her mother would be deceived by Han Yi's appearance, and was thinking about how to persuade her mother not to listen to the rumors.

So when she heard her mother's words, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Wu Shi sighed, and said:
"I heard that the Han family has sent a matchmaker to come to propose marriage. It is said that Mrs. Han had a nightmare and was anxious to propose marriage in the first month because she was afraid that Yutong would be snatched away. Sigh... I hope she really thinks so Well, my mother is incompetent and can't make the decision on this matter, so she wanted to add more dowry for your second sister, so that even if she married and was not favored, life would not be too sad."

Whether he is favored or not is second, the most terrifying thing is that his husband joins other women to deal with him together!
Pei Xiaoran patted the back of Wu's hand, and said:
"Mother, don't say that. Mother has already done what she can, and that's good enough. As for the second sister's marriage...Second sister is a pure and kind person, and God will not treat her badly."

It doesn't matter if she is treated badly, even if she is against the sky, she will change the fate of the second sister in this life!
Moreover, her mother, as the Duke's wife of the Duke's mansion, could have arranged the marriage of the concubine's daughter.

The reason why she can't be the master is not because her mother is incompetent, but because some people... Relying on being the Duke of the country and having a high position and authority, they never put her mother who was born in a merchant in their eyes.

If you don't take it seriously, how can you give her half of the power?

Even if her mother is sincerely for the good of her second sister, in the eyes of some people, it may be that 'the mistress deliberately destroys the good marriage of the concubine in order to suppress the concubine', right?

After talking with Wu Shi for a while, seeing Wu Shi's tired face, Pei Xiaoran immediately said:

"Mother, let's rest first, I'll go and play with my second sister."

Wu Shi nodded, smiled and watched her bouncing outside, and then slowly closed her eyes.

Nanny Zhang, who had been standing quietly by the side all this time, walked over lightly, pulled up the quilt for her, and carefully tucked in the corners of the quilt before quietly backing out.

Outside, hearing that Mrs. Wu was going to rest, Pei Yutong immediately stood up and said:

"Sister, go play with me."

"Okay~"

Pei Xiaoran and Pei Yutong walked out hand in hand, and when they walked out of Wu's courtyard, the smiles on their faces coincided with each other.

Pei Xiaoran said in a deep voice:

"Second Sister, don't worry. I won't break my promise at the beginning."

Pei Yutong laughed when he heard this, and said:
"Sixth Sister, don't worry. Since my mother has already sent someone to inquire about it, then what's the point if I'm married? Anyway, I'm going to marry, so it doesn't matter who I marry?"

"Of course not!"

Pei Xiaoran turned his head suddenly, and retorted angrily.

Pei Yutong looked at her puffy little face, it was funny and warm in her heart.

It's obviously her marriage, this younger sister cares more than me!

The two of them didn't talk for the rest of the way, Pei Yutong thought that Pei Xiaoran was having a temper tantrum, and Pei Xiaoran was thinking about his own thoughts.

However, the two of them didn't feel embarrassed at all. Before they knew it, they had already reached the door of Pei Yutong's courtyard.

Pei Xiaoran dragged Pei Yutong into the house, just about to tell You Xia and Hua Qing to take the others out, but saw a little girl walking out of the house in a panic.

Pei Xiaoran narrowed his eyes, raised his arms slightly to block the little girl's way.

The little girl looked up at her, quickly blessed her body, and stammered:
"Slave, slave, please greet Miss Six and Miss Second."

Pei Xiaoran smiled, indicating that she needn't be so nervous, and then asked:
"Miss sister looks so good, is she the second sister's new girl?"

"Huh? No, no..."

Hua Qing listened to her struggling, so he helped to explain:
"This girl is the rough envoy in the yard. She is in charge of cleaning the house when Miss is not in the house on weekdays, so Miss Six has never seen her before."

"Oh~ So that's how it is..."

Pei Xiaoran nodded, but his eyes did not blink to pay attention to the little girl's every move, until the other party's forehead was sweating, then he waved his hand with a smile and said:

"Young lady, don't be afraid. My second sister and I don't know how to eat people. Now that we're done with our work, let's go rest."

"Yes Yes……"

The little girl wiped off the cold sweat from her forehead and blessed her body before walking out in a hurry with her head down.

After the little girl left, Pei Xiaoran said to You Xia and Hua Qing:
"I want to talk to Second Sister for a while. There is no one to wait in the house. You all go back to your own house to keep warm. By the way, keep people in the yard away from here within ten steps."

You Xia and Hua Qing hurriedly said:

"Slaves take orders."

"Sister, is there something you want to whisper to me?"

Seeing Pei Xiaoran being so cautious, Pei Yutong couldn't help becoming nervous, and his voice became much quieter.

Pei Xiaoran was not in a hurry to answer her, but asked first:
"Second Sister, is she willing to do what I say, no matter what?"

Pei Yutong was taken aback for a moment, then nodded without hesitation, and said:
"Of course I am willing!"

Pei Xiaoran smiled, pulled Pei Yutong to sit down beside the bed, and said:

"Second sister, come on, let's talk slowly..."

The sky was getting dark, and after having dinner at Pei Yutong's place, Pei Xiaoran went back to his yard.

I was a little tired today and didn't want to go to Pei Yuxuan's place anymore, so Pei Xiaoran simply washed up and got ready to go to bed.

The door was suddenly knocked twice by Dudu, and Mother Pan's voice came from outside, saying:
"Miss, someone is looking for you outside."

"Who?"

"It's Zhang Zeqing."

Pei Xiaoran sighed, and crawled out of the bed again, picked up his coat and put it on his body, saying:

"Let him in."

"Yes."

Not long after, there were footsteps outside the door, and before he could raise his hand to knock on the door, the door had already been opened from the inside.

Pei Xiaoran looked up at Zhang Zeqing, and said:
"come in."

Then he said to Nanny Pan:

"Mammy, please stand guard at the door for a while, remember, don't let anyone get close."

Nanny Pan lowered her eyebrows and narrowed her eyes, without asking a word, she just lowered her head and responded:

"Old slave, remember."

After closing the door, Pei Xiaoran didn't talk nonsense, and said straight to the point:

"What did you hear?"

Zhang Zeqing didn't answer immediately, but looked down at the little girl in front of him, and saw that she was wearing a coat outside, and she was only wearing a snow-white inner coat.

Probably because of the fact that she took off her little jacket, the little girl looked extraordinarily thin and immature, like a spring bud that had just sprouted in spring, and it would break off with a light pinch.

Inexplicably, there was some distress in my heart.
