stern wife

Chapter 666
Pei Xiaoran asked back:

"In what capacity are you going?"

But don't tell her that as her mother's future husband, she brought other men to her ex-husband's house to visit her ex-mother-in-law. After all, her mother's reputation can still be claimed?

Are you visiting your ex-mother-in-law?Or go back with a new man to show off?
Wuming smiled slightly and said very wittily:
"I went there as old lady Pei's old friend."

Pei Xiaoran narrowed his eyes.

This guy really has a deep relationship with the Pei family.

Now that the other party has said so, she has no reason to refuse, and said:

"That's good, but you should pay attention and stay away from my mother, so as not to be misunderstood."

Wuming nodded obediently, and after they all got into the carriage, he got on his own horse, clamped the horse's belly, and walked towards Pei's residence unhurriedly.

Returning to Pei Mansion again, the place where they grew up, the mood of everyone did not fluctuate much.

After all, there aren't many happy memories here.

Moreover, they are already able to stand alone, so naturally they will not long to return to this place.

The atmosphere in Pei's mansion was extremely depressing, so depressing that it was almost breathless.

The servants were in a hurry, walking on tiptoes without making any sound. When they saw them, they only saluted in fear and fear, and then left quickly.

Since they knew the way, they went straight to Fushouyuan without needing to be escorted.

There were not many servants in Fushou Yuan, after entering the main house, Pei Xingshan, Pei Zengshan and his wife, as well as some aunts, were all there.

Seeing Pei Xiaoran and others walking in, the first person to greet them was not Pei Xingshan who sent someone to call them, but the sisters Zhao and Pei Huayu.

The two sisters are dressed very neatly today, and they look extraordinarily docile and well-behaved. Even the voices they speak are soft and soft, as if they are afraid of alarming anyone.

Pei Xiaoran also returned the salute politely, and then went forward with the Wu family, elder brother and sister-in-law to salute Princess Wuyang.

Princess Wuyang looked at the woman with a ruddy complexion, delicate eyebrows and a soft temperament with a complicated expression. After a while, she opened her mouth and said:

"Get up."

"His Royal Highness, Princess Xie."

After scanning the people in front of her one by one, Princess Wuyang thought that Wuming was Pei Xiaoran's subordinate, but she didn't pay much attention.

On the other hand, Pei Xingshan, when he saw Wuming who stepped in two steps behind Pei Xiaoran and the others, his eyes froze all of a sudden.

Immediately, a monstrous anger surged inexplicably in my heart.

It's okay for Mrs. Wu to flirt with other men, but she actually brought him here at this time? !

what does she mean?Are you angry with yourself?
Just when Princess Wuyang waved her hand to let everyone see the old lady, she heard Pei Xingshan speak in a voice so cold that it could almost fall out of ice:
"Who is he?"

Pei Xiaoran knew who Pei Xingshan was asking, so there was nothing surprising, after all, Wuming was a familiar face, so it was only natural to ask.

only……

What's the matter with the duke's questioning tone like a lover? !
Wuming didn't mind, he took a step forward, bowed his hands, and said with a smile:
"I've heard about the Duke's name for a long time, but seeing him today, it's really well-deserved.

I am an old friend of Mrs. Pei. Hearing that Mrs. Pei is not in good health, I thought of coming to see her once or twice, and I hope that the Duke will not dislike her. "

"My mother's old friend?"

Pei Xingshan carefully looked at the man not far away.

Although the other party's mask covered most of his face, it could still be seen that he was much younger than the old lady, and it could even be said that he was a whole generation younger than the old lady.

How could the old lady have such a young friend?
Pei Xingshan only regarded it as his fabricated identity to conceal his relationship with the Wu family. He snorted coldly and said unceremoniously:
"I'm sorry, my mother is seriously ill, it's really inconvenient to see guests, please go back."

Wuming moved his lips, and was about to say something when Pei Xiaoran suddenly said:

"I'm here to visit Mrs. Pei. I have good intentions, but my lord issued an order to expel the guests in person. I'm afraid there is something wrong?"

Pei Xingshan subconsciously looked at Pei Xiaoran, but saw that the other party was looking at him with a half-smile, his eyes flickering.

Not to mention that Pei Xiaoran has a high status and is extremely favored now, so he should not be easily offended.

The fact that she was holding her own handle was enough for Pei Xingshan not to dare to confront her again.

At least, on the surface, she was determined not to fall out with Pei Xiaoran.

Taking a deep breath silently, and suppressing the growing anger in his heart, Pei Xingshan said in a deep voice:
"Okay, it's okay, but there are many things at home, so I'm afraid I can't entertain them properly."

Wuming smiled generously:
"Don't dare to entertain the Duke of the country, I will leave after seeing it."

Only then did Pei Xingshan slightly nodded, and took a few people to visit the old lady.

The old lady is in the room, and the doctors in the house are also there, busy with their own work.

However, as soon as he saw the old lady Pei lying on the kang with a dark complexion and sunken eye sockets, like a skeleton covered with a layer of skin, Pei Xiaoran knew that the old lady was really dying.

The old lady was opening her eyes slightly at this time, her eyes were cloudy, and she didn't know if she could still see.

Mrs. Wu led Pei Xiaoran and the others to salute and say hello, but the other party didn't respond at all. Mrs. Wu sighed lightly, and just wanted the children to go out. After all, the appearance of the old lady was really scary, and it would be wrong to cast a shadow on them. All right.

However, Pei Xingshan suddenly said in a deep voice:

"Come out, I have something to ask you."

Wu Shi was startled, followed the sound to look, but saw Pei Xingshan looking at him.

Did you say this to her?

They have reconciled and separated, they are strangers, what else can they say and ask?

Wu's temperament is meek, and she didn't feel that Pei Xingshan's words at this time were considered offensive to her. Just as she was about to nod, her daughter said:

"Your Majesty is really a noble person who forgets things too much. You have already reconciled with my mother. I am afraid that this lonely man and widow will not be able to get along alone?"

Pei Xiaoran didn't know that Pei Xingshan had seen Wu Shi and Wuming together, she just simply hated the other party's commanding tone.

Do you still think that her mother is as weak and deceitful as before, letting him and the old lady treat her harshly?
With her here, let's see who dares to be disrespectful to her mother!
It was only then that Pei Xingshan remembered that he had reconciled with Mrs. Wu, and he had absolutely no position to ask about Mrs. Wu.

My heart was suddenly empty, and an inexplicable panic filled my heart.

So...he has nothing to do with Wu Shi?

What about Wu?

They've been married for so many years, it's impossible for her to have no feelings for him at all, right?

Of course, at this time, the Duke of the State has selectively forgotten how he treated Wu and her children.

If Wu Shi can still develop feelings for him under such low treatment...

That can only show that there is something wrong with Wu's head, and he is still seriously ill.
