stern wife

Chapter 403 Top Gun
Although Nie Xichen is not weak in martial arts, but because of his serious injury, anyone can easily finish him at this time.

Pei Yanhe glared at Nie Xichen unwillingly, and said harshly:

"You kid, let me be more honest in the future, or I will make you look good!"

Nie Xichen nodded obediently, and smiled slightly, but his appearance looked very awkward, which made Pei Yanhe grind his teeth for a while.

Pei Xiaoran suddenly said:

"I am so lucky to have Mr. Nie use such a valuable thing to test me."

Nie Xichen was startled, and subconsciously said:
"what?"

Pei Xiaoran held the red string and lifted the jade pendant, shaking it, and said with a smile:
"This jade pendant still has some warmth on it. I'm afraid Mr. Nie has been wearing it close to his body. Generally speaking, things worn next to his body have special meanings. I don't know what this jade pendant represents to Mr. Nie." What's the point?"

Tsk, it's not Pei Xiaoran's style to keep silent even after being bullied!

Nie Xichen's expression changed slightly, and he stretched out his hand and said:
"Give me back."

Pei Xiaoran smiled mischievously, stuffed the jade pendant into his sleeve pocket, then made a face at him, and said:

"Since Mr. Nie threw the jade pendant to me, it is mine. If Mr. Nie wants to take it back... then come and beg me."

After finishing speaking, he dragged Pei Yanhe, who was instantly happy, bouncing away.

In a panic, Nie Xichen sat up and wanted to chase after him, but he touched the wounds all over his body, and his face distorted due to the pain.

Pei Runzhi sighed and said:
"It's your own fault, why are you bothering..."

Seeing that Nie Xichen endured the pain and wanted to go down to the ground to chase after him, Pei Runzhi knew that his little sister had guessed correctly, and that jade pendant might really be very meaningful to Nie Xichen.

He stretched out his hand and said:
"Don't move anymore, unless you want to stay on the bed all the time. But don't worry, although Xiaoran is a child, he does things very well, and he won't lose your jade pendant, as long as you go and say something to her afterwards." Sorry, she will give it back to you."

Nie Xichen finally learned how powerful the wise and near-monster sister Pei Runzhi was talking about, gritted his teeth, and finally calmed down.

At noon the next day, the family gathered in Wu's yard for dinner.

Pei Runzhi specially left a servant to take care of Nie Xichen, and the kitchen has already ordered some light meals for Nie Xichen to be sent over.

When Wu shi saw Pei Xiaoran come back last night, she had already cried a lot. When she saw Pei Xiaoran today, her eyes were still red, and she held her little daughter in her arms and kept wiping away her tears.

Pei Xiaoran patiently patted Wu Shi's back and softly comforted her, but she didn't say the promises Wu Shi wanted to hear, such as 'the daughter will never go out again to make my mother worry about it'.

Because she knew that this was just the beginning, and in the future, she still had days when she had to travel far away from home.

After comforting her for a while, Wu Shi gradually calmed down and wiped away her tears, but her eye sockets were still red and swollen.

She leaned on her little daughter's shoulder and looked carefully, just about to say "I lost weight" in distress, but when she saw the two lumps of baby fat on her little daughter's face, she had to swallow the words abruptly go down.

This...how does this look fatter than before leaving...

Could it be that she was dazzled?
Wu Shi stared at Pei Xiaoran again, and found that her precious girl had really gained weight, not thin.

Seeing her mother staring at her with disbelief, Pei Xiaoran scratched her head and said with some embarrassment:
"I went to live with Li Wang for a few days, and I ate a little too much, so... I gained a little weight."

In those few days, he was well raised at Li Wang's place, and there was no pressure on the way back, so Pei Xiaoran naturally ate and slept well.

In addition, it is impossible to practice martial arts in the carriage, so the little fat that has been raised has not been reduced.

Wu's tears suddenly turned into a smile, and said:

"It's better to be fatter, it's better to be fatter..."

Then he wondered again:

"Why did you run to King Li?"

Before Pei Xiaoran could answer, Pei Yanhe interrupted excitedly:
"I know this, I'll tell my mother!"

He is still immersed in the sense of accomplishment of completing the task and cannot extricate himself. This is the first major event in his life, and the significance is extraordinary.

After finally catching the opportunity, they immediately showed off what they had experienced on the road.

Speaking of the place where Cao Tailai, Cao Huimin and his son bribed the coachmen to steal all the food, Pei Yanhe couldn't help but patted the table excitedly, and said bitterly:

"I thought His Majesty sent those two father and son to follow Xiaoran to deliver food because they were different from those stubborn old people in the court. Who knew, who knew that they were the same as those stubborn old ones!"

Pei Yuxuan, who was sipping tea quietly, tightened her slender fingers holding the teacup.

Pei Yanhe was still filled with righteous indignation, angrily complaining about his sister's injustice:
"What's the matter with the child? What's the matter with the girl? Since he has the ability and ability, why can't he be reused by His Majesty? Why didn't any civil and military people in the Manchu Dynasty support Xiaoran? Maybe some of them are not as good as Xiaoran What! I don’t know which foolish ancestor set the foolish rules, so that women can only be trapped at home all their lives, not allowed to show their faces, and even the calligraphy and paintings they made have to be torn up and not passed on, but I don’t know how much wronged by this broken rule A woman with talent and ability!"

Didn't any civil and military supporters in the Manchu dynasty support Xiaoran...

Pei Yuxuan lowered his eyes, and he could easily imagine the scene of his sister standing helplessly in the hall.

If there were their own people in the court at that time, my sister would not be so isolated and helpless...

Pei Runzhi nodded in agreement, and Wu also looked at this son in surprise, never expecting that he, who was addicted to wine|sex all day long, would be able to say such reasonable words.

Pei Xiaoran was not surprised, because she knew that her fourth brother was just raised as a little stupid, not really stupid.

Wu Shi sighed and said:
"These words are very reasonable, but power has long been monopolized by men, even if there are women who want to stand out, they will definitely be suppressed by them."

Moreover, even if all the women are willing to unite and resist, they cannot defeat those men.

Women are born with less strength than men, and they all say that God is the fairest, but they don't know that people are unfair from the moment they are born.

Pei Xiaoran smiled and said:

"Mother, don't worry, I will never be suppressed by anyone."

Pei Xiaoran knew that he was able to be seen by Emperor Chixuan and entrusted with a heavy responsibility because of those god sticks and the strange celestial phenomenon when he was born.

But the reason is not important, the important thing is that she will try to use this opportunity to climb up, and use this to prove to all the women in future generations:

Women are not specially born to care for their husbands and teach their children!

They can still be both civil and military, serve as officials in the court, lead soldiers to fight, and make a career!
