stern wife

Chapter 213 I'm Not the Same Kind of Person as You
Pei Xiaoran glanced at him, always felt that this little girl was a little too humble, as if she was afraid of something.

Both her and Baili Lieyuan's identities have not been revealed, and Baili Lieyuan's armor is only worn by ordinary soldiers. Could it be that he is afraid of even an ordinary soldier?
Baili Lieyuan didn't notice so much, and immediately said:
"Go and prepare some meals first, they should all be light, and then prepare two buckets of hot water."

After speaking, he glanced at the little rich man and motioned for her to give the money.

Rich Mr. Pei took out five copper coins from his small purse and handed them over. Four were for two buckets of hot water, and one was for Xiao Er.

Xiao Er thanked her repeatedly, turned around and ran away in a hurry.

Pei Xiaoran looked at his back, thoughtful.

Baili Lieyuan put her on the stool by the table, straightened her body and twisted her sore back, picked up the teapot and poured a cup for Pei Xiaoran first, then poured a cup for herself, raised her head and drank it all in one gulp .

The temperature of the tea is just right, but the taste is not as good as the expensive tea that Baili Lieyuan usually drinks. It is bitter and astringent. If it is in normal times, His Royal Highness Li Wang might not even take a second look at it.

But today is different from the past, Baili Lieyuan has been carrying someone on his back for a whole day without taking a drop of water, and he is already thirsty, not only does he not feel that the rough tea is unpalatable, but a sweetness that he has never tasted spreads on the tip of his tongue, Let him drink several cups in a row before finally slowing down.

Pei Xiaoran looked at Niu Yin's appearance, completely lost the usual slow elegance and nobility, so he said with a smile:

"His Royal Highness has worked hard."

"Humph."

Baili Lieyuan snorted arrogantly in response, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but twitch with joy.

After all, this little brat still has a conscience.

After a while, the food came up.

After being hungry all day, the two unceremoniously picked up the chopsticks together, chewed according to the case, and quickly wiped out all the food on the table like a storm.

Xiao Er, who hadn't had time to back off, was stunned, thinking that these two people looked so luxurious, how could they eat like starving ghosts reincarnated?
He said cautiously:

"Second guest officers, do you still want to return?"

Pei Xiaoran smacked his lips unsatisfied. Although he was not full, it is not good to eat too much at night, so he waved his hand and said:

"no need."

Xiao Er then stepped forward to clean up the mess on the table, and then asked the kitchen staff to bring in the prepared hot water and wooden bucket.

Baili Lieyuan has never seen such a small wooden barrel. He usually takes a bath in the Yuchi. Even with a wooden barrel, it can still be as big as two or three people lying sideways.

Therefore, when seeing this kind of wooden barrel that can only be used by one person, I can't help but doubt whether I can stuff myself.

"Do you wash first or should I wash first?" Pei Xiaoran asked him.

Baili Lieyuan glanced at her.

Pei Xiaoran immediately said with interest:

"His Royal Highness please first."

Then he chose one of the beds, took off his shoes and went up, and put down the bed curtain, intending to avoid suspicion.

"Hold on."

But Baili Lieyuan stopped her before she put down the bed curtain, pinched something placed beside the barrel with two fingers, and asked with a look of disgust:

"What is this? Why is it so dark?"

As he said that, he moved it up to his nose curiously and sniffed it, then immediately moved away a foot away, and exclaimed:

"It still stinks! Why did they bring such a disgusting thing in?!"

Pei Xiaoran looked up, speechless, and said:

"His Royal Highness Li Wang doesn't even know this?"

Baili Lieyuan shook her head, and quickly opened the window, as if she was about to throw it out.

Pei Xiaoran hastily stopped and said:

"Don't throw it away! This is a good thing, without it, what do you use to bathe?"

"Can this be used for bathing?!" Baili Lieyuan was horrified:
"Will it stink all over after washing? How can someone bathe with this kind of thing?"

"Because saponins are more expensive, so I can only use this, but don't worry, Your Highness, this will definitely not smell bad after washing, it just has a special smell, and it will be washed very clean."

Baili Lieyuan looked at her:

"What the hell is this?"

Pei Xiaoran explained helplessly:
"It's called pancreas, and it's mashed with fat and pancreas from cattle, pigs, and sheep, and then..."

Before she could finish speaking, Baili Lieyuan had already thrown out the pancreas in her hand, and also threw away a small piece of pancreas placed beside her barrel.

After throwing it away, he pulled a rough cloth towel to wipe his hands vigorously, as if he had been stained by something dirty.

Pei Xiaoran became angry:
"It's fine if you throw away your own, why did you throw away my piece too?"

His Royal Highness Li Wang said confidently:
"Because you live with me, I don't want to smell that stinky smell from you."

"Smelly?" Pei Xiaoran couldn't help but sneer:
"Little prince who doesn't eat the sufferings of the world, do you know that the two pieces of pancreas you threw away are things that the poor people are reluctant to use in their homes? Even if they are used, they are extremely frugal. It's just two small pieces. That's enough to last them a few days."

Baili Lieyuan was not angry, but felt a little funny, and asked:

"You are the eldest daughter of the Duke's mansion, and you know the sufferings of the world?"

Pei Xiaoran pursed his mouth tightly and did not speak.

In her previous life, when she was marching and fighting, she hadn't seen anything?

And not only have I seen it, but I have also experienced it myself. At that time, let alone soap, there was no hot water. It was good to find a place with water. No matter whether it was spring, summer, autumn or winter, she always bathed in cold water.

However, King Li of Great Yin had never experienced this.

Pei Xiaoran felt that it was useless to talk to the other party, so he stopped talking and did not pursue further. Then he put down the bed curtain and completely separated the two of them.

Baili Lieyuan's mood became inexplicably worse, she just washed her body hastily, dried her body and put on her clothes again.

He looked at the hanging bed curtain, thought for a while, and asked:
"Hey, I'm done washing, it's your turn, do you need my help?"

Sigh... I think he has been the prince for so many years, when was he slapped in the face?And when did you continue to be nice to others after being slapped in the face?
Pei Xiaoran didn't appreciate it at all, and flatly refused:

"Need not."

He asked again: "Your Highness, are you all dressed?"

Baili Lieyuan nodded, remembering that she couldn't see, and said again:
"Get dressed."

Only then did Pei Xiaoran lift the bed curtain, put on his shoes and get out of bed.

Baili Lieyuan looked at her blood-stained clothes, probably because the stain was so large that it looked like the original color of the clothes.

In addition, there was no abnormality in Pei Xiaoran's actions, so Xiao Er just now didn't realize that she was actually an injured person.

But Baili Lieyuan had seen the wound with his own eyes, and knew how serious the injury was for a child, so he couldn't help frowning and asked:
"You really don't need my king's help?"

Pei Xiaoran shook his head, walked to another wooden barrel and reached out to test the temperature of the water, it was neither hot nor cold, just right.

She turned her head to look at Baili Lieyuan, which means, Your Highness, you should avoid it.
