stern wife

Chapter 178
The coachman's voice came from outside the curtain, saying:
"Ma'am, sir, a girl has fainted in front of our carriage!"

Mrs. Han didn't want to be nosy, and Han Yi was not interested in other women except his cousin. The mother and son reached an agreement and looked at each other tacitly. Mrs. Han said to the driver:
"Go around!"

The coachman answered "Yes" and turned his horse's head to make a detour.

Han Yi opened the car window curiously and looked out, only to see a young woman lying on the ground in front of him.

The woman was wearing a plain dress, and her long black hair was spread all over the floor, like a blooming lotus.

When the carriage passed by her, she could still see her beautiful side face with slightly frowning willow eyebrows.

Han Yi's heart moved, and he subconsciously shouted:

"parking!"

The coachman didn't know why, but he tightened the reins of the horse and stopped the carriage.

Han Yi lifted the curtain and jumped out of the carriage, walked to the woman's side, bent down, and called softly:

"Girl, girl? Are you all right?"

The woman didn't respond at all, she seemed to have really passed out.

Han Yi called a few more times, seeing that the other party still didn't respond, he simply stretched out his hand, hugged him horizontally, and carried him into the carriage.

Mrs. Han became angry when she saw this posture, and was about to explode when she heard Han Yi say:

"Mother, you will be punished by God if you refuse to save yourself!"

Han Yi carefully placed her next to him, letting her lean in his arms, fearing that she would be bumped and slipped by the carriage, and stretched out an arm to wrap around the other's slender waist.

Although this waist is not as thin as his cousin's, with an extra layer of flesh, it feels much better to the touch than his cousin's.

Mrs. Han stared coldly at her son's worried expression, and said:
"Yi'er, what are you trying to do? Mother has already tolerated one, is it possible that you still want to recruit another one, so that you can piss mother off to death?!"

Han Yi hurriedly said:

"Mother, you misunderstood me. I just wanted to save someone. Didn't you hear the coachman say that she had fainted? Besides, we just talked about a good marriage. If you don't want to save someone, in case God punishes you , What if I ruin this marriage again?"

Mrs. Han was slightly taken aback, but she didn't think of this level, and most people in the world are superstitious, so Han Yi's words are not unreasonable.

It's just that he is very clear about what happened to him.

Mrs. Han sneered and asked:

"What about after saving people? What are you going to do?"

Han Yi looked down at the woman in his arms, and for some reason, it was probably because of the helpless and pitiful appearance of this woman that moved him, and he felt a little compassion.

Han Yi didn't even think about it:
"I want to take her in. Seeing how rough her clothes are, you can tell that she came from a poor family. Another person fainted on the street, with no relatives around her. I don't want to take her in. Do I want to watch her live on the street again? starve?"

Mrs. Han squinted at him with a look of disbelief.

Han Yi knew that he couldn't hide it from his mother, so he confessed:
"If she is willing, I will accept her, but mother, please rest assured, even if I want to accept her, I will accept her after the big wedding, and I will never let her affect my marriage."

Mrs. Han let out a sigh of relief and said:
"You can do what you say."

The horseshoe clattered, carrying a car of people with different thoughts towards the Han residence.

Pei Xiaoran and Pei Yutong slept sweetly together, and when Pei Xiaoran woke up again, he was awakened by something.

Pei Xiaoran sat up, groped for a while in doubt, and finally found the answer in Pei Yutong's sleeve.

Seeing that Pei Yutong was still sleeping, she carefully took the things out of Pei Yutong's sleeve pocket and took a closer look, but it turned out that it was a gift from Mrs. Han to Pei Yutong when she was parting.

The brocade handkerchief had been unraveled, revealing part of the gift, but it turned out to be a green jadeite bracelet.

Although only a little bit is exposed, it can already be seen that this bracelet is of excellent condition, the color of water is transparent, and the tentacles are cool and smooth. It is priceless at first glance, and it is indeed like a family heirloom of Mrs. Han.

Pei Xiaoran simply tore off the entire brocade handkerchief, and found that the bracelet was completely emerald, without a trace of variegation or blemish.

Oh, it seems that in order to be able to marry this daughter-in-law, Mrs. Han has spent all her money.

Just, so what?

Her second sister is a person, not a commodity, and she cannot be bought for a sufficient price.

Moreover, this meeting gift is so precious, not only because her second sister was born in the Duke's Mansion, but also because of a guilty conscience?

Pei Xiaoran would not believe the stupid reason why Mrs. Han gave such a precious meeting gift because she liked her second sister too much.

The fine jadeite bracelet exuded a radiant light in her hand, Pei Xiaoran looked down at the bracelet and was slightly lost in thought, not realizing for a moment that Pei Yutong also woke up.

Pei Yutong stretched her waist, sat up slowly, saw the thing in Pei Xiaoran's hand at a glance, raised her hand, rubbed her eyes, and said with a smile:
"If my sister likes it, I will give it to you."

Pei Xiaoran was startled, and almost threw the bracelet out of his hand by mistake.

Turning around to look, I saw Pei Yutong yawning and looking at her with crooked smiles, showing no sign of reluctance.

It's rare to see his second sister's sleepy-eyed and lazy appearance, Pei Xiaoran screamed in his heart how cute, while trying to calm down:

"This thing is indeed a good thing, but... I don't want it. I'm just curious about what Mrs. Han gave you, so I just took it out to have a look."

Pei Xiaoran rewrapped the bracelet with a brocade handkerchief, stuffed it back into Pei Yutong's hand, and asked again:

"Second Sister, what do you...what do you think of that Han Yi?"

She hasn't told Pei Yutong about Han Yi and his cousin, but only told her what she needs to do, because she is afraid that if she knows about this in advance, she will not be able to hide some emotions, and she will be caught by Han Yi or Han Yi. The madam noticed something, but she couldn't give them a fatal blow.

However, in order to prevent her second sister from accidentally misjudging the person, really liking Han Yi, and getting hurt after knowing the truth, Pei Xiaoran decided to ask in advance.

If she really fell in love with him, she would tell her second sister about it in advance, even at the risk of being discovered by the Han family's mother and son, she would tell her so that her second sister would give up on this person early, so that it would be better to live with him in the future. And suffer grievance and pain.

Pei Yutong was stunned for a moment, then she showed a little embarrassment, and said softly:

"I didn't notice him too much, but... I can feel that although his body is there, his heart is not there."

Pei Xiaoran heaved a sigh of relief, and thought that seeing her second sister's expression at the beginning, she thought she really fell in love with Han Yi...

She nodded in agreement and said:
"I can see this too, so... the second sister doesn't like him?"
