Chapter 690 What Have You Done For Her?
Wuming raised his eyebrows and asked back:

"no need thank me?"

Pei Xiaoran said:

"Thank you for spending the day with my mother."

Wuming smiled, and said in a natural tone:

"Isn't that what a person who is pursuing your mother should do? Say thank you, but you're out of touch with me."

Pei Xiaoran immediately realized that this man was teasing her, and couldn't help curling his lips, saying:
"Don't be too familiar, you haven't caught up yet, of course you have to 'see outside'!"

Nameless shrugged and said:

"Okay, then I will continue to work hard and strive to become your mother's 'insider' as soon as possible, so that you don't have to 'see outside' with me again."

Pei Xiaoran: "..."

Seeing the little girl's speechless appearance, Wuming couldn't help laughing.

Afterwards, he waved his hand at her, and walked slowly into the night with full of joy.

Really... I haven't been this happy in many years...

Pei Xiao, who stayed where he was, touched his chin, and began to seriously consider whether he wanted such an unscrupulous old guy to be his stepfather...

-

The next day, Pei Xiaoran went to the Duke's Mansion with his brothers and sisters as usual to guard the spirit of the old lady.

However, unlike yesterday, neither Pei Runzhi nor Pei Yuxuan brought their children with them today, they all stayed at home and handed over to the nanny to take care of.

Even so, the few people still did not let down their vigilance, and today in the Duke's Mansion, everything was safe and sound.

Just before leaving, Pei Xiaoran was asked insinuatingly by Pei Huayu and Pei Shuli if she would attend the Longevity Festival of the Holy Spirit tomorrow.

After learning that Pei Xiaoran would not only participate, but also that Emperor Chixuan called for the participation, the two sisters were full of envy on the surface, but Pei Xiaoran did not misunderstand the jealousy and unwillingness in their eyes.

No need to think about it, it must be because of Baili Lieyuan again.

Baili Lieyuan was one of the people invited this time, and participating in the Longevity Festival also meant meeting him.

The two sisters had secretly promised him for a long time, and naturally they didn't want to miss such an opportunity.

It's a pity that they didn't separate from the Duke's Mansion. As the granddaughters of Mrs. Pei, they had to stay to watch for her.

Don't even think about a party or anything.

"Grandmother's death was too inopportune. She didn't die sooner, she didn't die later, but she died before the Holy Majesty's Longevity Day. It really missed our good deeds."

Thinking of His Highness Li Wang's peerless face, Pei Shuli scratched her heart anxiously, wishing she could put on her wings and fly to the other party's side right now.

One side, even just seeing one side, she will be satisfied!

"Who said it wasn't..."

Pei Huayu sighed faintly, because there were only the two of them in the room, and she did not hide her dissatisfaction at all that she could not see the beautiful man because of the old lady Pei's death.

If the old lady Pei, who has always been very fond of concubines, heard this, I really don't know how she would feel.

Pei Shuli still couldn't get rid of her anger, she punched the table with a powder fist, and said bitterly:
"That Pei Xiaoran will definitely take this opportunity to seduce His Royal Highness Li Wang again, that little bitch! Why is she the granddaughter of my grandmother, if she can go, we can't?
Even if the family has been separated, the blood relationship is inseparable!Why can she not have to keep vigil for her grandmother that day? "

"Shhh, keep your voice down! Could it be that you want your mother to hear it?!"

This time, Pei Huayu did not agree with her sister's words, but immediately made a silent movement towards her sister, and then looked around vigilantly, seeing that there was no one outside the door or window, she was a little relieved.

Now, their mother doesn't know what kind of evil has bewitched her. Taking Pei Xiaoran is more important than eyeballs. Even if they say no to her, her mother's subordinates will slap her severely.

As a result, Pei Huayu would feel apprehensive whenever the matter about Pei Xiaoran was mentioned.

After her reminder, Pei Shuli also reacted, and immediately fell silent, a trace of panic flashed across her face, and she also looked around nervously.

However, the hatred in his eyes was even worse.

Why, why did everyone turn to Pei Xiaoran, even their mothers turned to her!
Could it be that Pei Xiaoran knew some kind of sorcery?
If she hadn't given others some ecstasy soup, no one would have liked her just because of her appearance!

However, Pei Shuli's words reminded Pei Huayu.

Pei Huayu pondered for a moment, then said:
"What you said is very reasonable. Although Pei Xiaoran is separated from our Duke's mansion, there is no blood relationship. He shouldn't have attended any banquet during his grandmother's vigil.

However, if we bring this matter up to Mother, Mother will definitely not be on our side, why don't we... let's talk to Dad?
Maybe, I can convince my father, and then ask my father to stop Pei Xiaoran from going to the banquet! "

Pei Shuli's eyes lit up, she clapped her hands and said with a smile:

"Sister's idea is really good! Daddy's words, how dare Pei Xiaoran not listen?"

As long as Pei Xiaoran can be prevented from hooking up with their Highness Li Wang, Pei Shuli is naturally willing to do anything.

The two sisters made up their minds and immediately got up together and rushed towards their father's yard.

Pei Xingshan was resting on the couch after a busy day. When he heard his two daughters begging to see him, he didn't get up, but closed his eyes and said:
"Let them in."

These two days, Pei Xingshan was really tired. He had to deal with the guests who came to express his condolences during the day, and he had to accompany His Royal Highness the Princess at night, which was physically and mentally exhausting.

Her Royal Highness the eldest princess has a bad temper, if she doesn't see her for a day, she will play a petty temper and make him troublesome.

She is also of high status, if it makes her unhappy, it will be very bad if she sues in front of Emperor Chixuan.

Therefore, no matter how unhappy he was in his heart, Pei Xingshan would go to accompany Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess every day, and he would also do a small job, serving his wife like a servant, so that he would not dare to go west.

Ever since Xianyu turned over, has the Duke ever been wronged like this again?
Therefore, I miss the comfortable life when my ex-wife was still there.

Wu's temperament is indifferent, and she never asks him for anything. The only time she asked him to come to him was because of Pei Yuxuan.

At that time, Wu Shi was pregnant with Pei Yuxuan, but the old lady treated her harshly, Wu Shi was afraid of affecting the fetus in her womb, so she begged him to come, and begged him to let his mother stop torturing her.

How did he do it?
Oh, now that I think about it, he didn't do anything, he just responded perfunctorily, and didn't say anything more.

He even secretly calculated that if Mrs. Wu could be tortured to death by the old lady, then there would be one less person in this world who could handle him.

For him, it was a great thing.

Because of this, after Pei Yuxuan was born, he was born with a congenital disease, and almost could only live on a four-wheeled cart for the rest of his life.
