stern wife

Chapter 159 She's Good or Bad
Pei Xiaoran didn't care about Pei Shuli's slander at all, and only said slowly:

"What this young lady wants...I can't give it."

Ever since meeting this woman who sold her body to bury her father, Pei Xiaoran has been observing her silently.

Of course, helping others should be done, but before helping others, one must also see clearly whether the other party is really in need of help.

It's a trivial matter to be cheated of a few coins. If the other party uses the money he gave to do evil, that is to help the evildoer.

Therefore, after observing carefully for a while, Pei Xiaoran found many suspicious things.

Although the woman who prostituted herself to bury her father was dressed in sackcloth and filial piety and coarse cloth clothes, her clothes were neat and tidy, and her long hair, which was as beautiful as a waterfall, was combed meticulously.

Moreover, although the woman had a mournful face, she never shed a tear from the beginning to the end. Was it because she was afraid that the light makeup on her face would be stained?

People say that you want to be pretty and wear filial piety, but this young lady really wears filial piety clothes with a delicate taste.

Dressing up so elegantly and elegantly, and deliberately making such a gesture of pity for me, it must be fake to sell his body to bury his father, and use this dead person to win the pity of the son and brother of a wealthy family passing by, so that he can marry into a wealthy family. It is true that households are concubines.

That's why Pei Xiaoran said that she couldn't give what she wanted by herself. After all, she was neither a son of a son, nor would she be fooled by beauty. This important task of being taken advantage of by others should be entrusted to others.

However, Pei Shuli couldn't understand the deep meaning in Pei Xiaoran's words, and immediately 'exposed' after hearing the words:

"Sixth Sister, don't lie. Sixth Sister's maternal grandfather's family is a wealthy businessman, and they have a lot of money. How can Sixth Sister not even have money for charity?"

Since there is money, Pei Xiaoran's "can't give it" means that he doesn't want to give it. This little sister is so pitiful, her father is dead, but the sixth sister refuses to give a penny. It's really good or bad!

Therefore, His Royal Highness Li Wang will definitely hate her, and then he will never hold her hand again!

However, the fact is that His Royal Highness Li Wang's hand, which was carved like jade and has distinct joints, still firmly holds Pei Xiaoran's hand after hearing these words.

And under the veiled hat, His Royal Highness Li Wang didn't show any disgust on his face, on the contrary, a pair of watery peach blossom eyes were full of surprise and admiration.

what!It is really a great honor for this little hedgehog to be appreciated by His Royal Highness Li Wang!

"Since we can't give it, let's go."

Saying that, Baili Lieyuan dragged Pei Xiaoran to leave, obviously seeing that the woman who sold her body to bury her father had other plans.

"Hold on."

Pei Xiaoran suddenly broke away from his hand, walked up to the woman, leaned slightly, and whispered something in her ear.

Such a pitiful person who can use any means to achieve his goal, although he doesn't want it, there are always people who can't resist the temptation.

When he got closer, he realized that this woman was indeed very pretty, probably because she had just arrived here not long ago, otherwise, Pei Xiaoran was sure that she would have been taken away by others long ago.

After some whispering, Pei Xiaoran straightened up, and as expected, he saw the greedy and passionate brilliance in the woman's eyes.

Pei Xiaoran asked:
"Would you like to?"

The woman nodded repeatedly and said:

"Yes, yes!"

This attitude is much more enthusiastic than when he was with Pei Huayu just now.

"However..." Looking at the little girl in front of her who was definitely not ten years old, the woman's eyes revealed some doubts.

Although the little girl's words are very tempting, but... can she believe her?
Seeing her distrust, Pei Xiaoran smiled slightly, lowered his head and took off a silver collar with a big thumb pearl hanging from his neck, handed it to the woman, and said:

"Use the money my sister gave you just now to rent a carriage, take your father's body to the neighboring city, find out where a merchant named Wu lives, and then take this to the Wu family to find the eldest wife, the eldest wife of the Wu family. Seeing this, my wife will definitely take you in and help you find a treasured place to bury your father."

This pearl collar was given to her by the eldest wife of the Wu family, that is, Pei Xiaoran's eldest aunt. After seeing this pearl collar, she will definitely not be turned away because she suspects that the woman's origin is unknown.

Then, she revealed her identity and said:

"The Wu family is my maternal ancestor's family."

Hearing this, the woman finally believed a little bit, and kowtowed to Pei Xiaoran repeatedly:

"Thank you, lady! Thank you..."

"No need," Pei Xiaoran gently pressed her shoulder with one hand to stop her movement, and said with deep meaning:
"That's all I can help you with. The rest depends on your own ability."

Not knowing what to think of, she pursed her lips and smiled faintly, but there was no trace of a smile in her clear eyes, and said slowly:
"That son... especially likes women who pretend to be pitiful. He already has such a woman by his side. You can only achieve your goal by pretending to be more pitiful and lovable than her. You... know how Did you do it?"

The woman's beautiful eyes flickered, and said:
"Little girl... I understand."

Pei Xiaoran nodded, turned around and returned to Baili Lieyuan's side, and said:
"I'm sorry to have waited for a long time, His Royal Highness, let's go on."

Baili Lieyuan examined her for a moment, and asked curiously:
"Didn't you say...you can't give her what she wants? Then what were you doing just now?"

Pei Xiaoran looked at the hand that was stretched out in front of her while the other was asking, and really wanted to slap her away, but after thinking about the consequences of the blow, he sighed regretfully, and put his little hand on it resignedly.

His Royal Highness Li Wang smiled with satisfaction, and immediately held her hand tightly.

Pei Xiaoran was too lazy to look at his villainous look, and said:

"I can't give it. Someone can give it. I just helped to bridge the gap, lest... the eighth younger sister say that I have no sympathy, and set a bad example for the two younger sisters. That's not good. Both of them Did the sister say so?"

Pei Shuli pursed her small mouth, and muttered in obvious displeasure:
"Sixth Sister did this because His Royal Highness Li Wang was there, just pretending to be a good person..."

Pei Huayu also secretly clenched her lower lip, thinking unwillingly, she was the one who first discovered that young lady in need of help, and she was also the first to give money.

It was just because the silver necklace Pei Xiaoran gave was more valuable than the silver I gave him, and she said something incomprehensible. The young lady was so grateful to Pei Xiaoran, completely forgetting that there was still her benefactor, and let Pei Xiaoran be there Prince Li stole the limelight in front of His Royal Highness.

She was so angry and resentful that she wanted to disregard her mother's instruction and rush to scratch Hua's elder sister's face.

But the boy he likes is by his side, if she really does this, he will definitely hate him.

Pei Huayu took several deep breaths silently, and finally endured the urge.
