stern wife

Chapter 861

Does Pei Xiaoran really regard her and Pei Huayu as sisters?
Obviously they have done so many excessive things, but she still cares about the sisterhood that grew up together...

It seems that Pei Xiaoran's protection of his relatives is not groundless.

only……

She and Pei Huayu have never treated her as a sister...

Before she could say anything, Pei Xiaoran said enthusiastically:

"I even brought some presents for my sister!"

She beckoned, and the maids presented the presents in front of Pei Shuli one by one.

There are precious tonics, gorgeous dresses, and glittering and golden jewelry...

There's no girl who doesn't like these.

Especially Pei Shuli who was in a state of desperation and couldn't afford these beautiful clothes and jewelry at all.

Pei Shuli's eyes straightened immediately.

These palace products are more delicate and beautiful than the most precious things in the market.

Pei Xiaoran smiled and said:
"It's just a small gift, I hope my sister won't dislike it."

dislike?How could she dislike it!
But in front of Pei Xiaoran, what should be pretended is still to be pretended.

Pei Shuli forced herself to come back to her senses, and said with a reserved face:
"Then thank you Sixth Sister."

"My sister, why are you being polite?
From now on, whatever you want, just tell me. "

Pei Xiaoran smiled and waved his hands, looking like a fool with a lot of money.

After seeing the gift, Pei Shuli's guard against Pei Xiaoran quickly decreased a lot, and even her expression and tone when she spoke became much gentler.

The two were chatting harmoniously when they heard footsteps coming from the door.

Looking back, it was Pei Huayu who was slowly approaching with a bowl of black concoction.

Seeing Pei Huayu, Pei Shuli's face quickly turned cold.

Pei Xiaoran saw it in his eyes, but remained calm, but greeted Pei Huayu with a smile and said:

"Sister Huayu is good."

Pei Huayu took a look at her, quickly lowered her head, bowed to her politely, and replied softly:
"Hello, Sixth Sister."

Pei Xiaoran was slightly taken aback.

For some reason, she felt that in the past, Pei Huayu's disgust, defense, and jealousy towards her...

Like a drop of ink falling into the water, it all dissipated without a trace.

strangeness……

After they came back yesterday, what happened that changed Pei Huayu so much?
In the midst of being puzzled, Pei Huayu had already stepped forward, gently placed the medicine bowl on the low table beside the bed, and said to Pei Shuli gently:

"Sister, mother and I have boiled the medicine together, drink it while it's hot."

Pei Shuli didn't see the change in her sister at all, but responded perfunctorily, then waved her hand like chasing flies:

"Sixth Sister came to see me, I will talk to Sixth Sister for a while, you go out first."

Hearing Pei Shuli's 'drive away', Pei Huayu didn't feel angry at all, but smiled and said:
"Well, remember to drink the medicine while it's hot, it's not good for your health to drink it when it's cold."

After speaking, she turned and left.

But out of the corner of his eye, he noticed the gold and silver jewelry and brocade clothes in the hands of the court ladies.

Pei Huayu's footsteps paused, and her eyes were attracted by those things for a moment.

No way, beautiful things, no matter who they are, can't help but like them.

However, Pei Shuli saw this scene.

She was afraid that this elder sister would rob her, so she said in a ostentatious and warning tone:

"Pretty, right? These... are all gifts from my sixth sister."

She emphasized the pronunciation of the word "my", which is self-evident.

Pei Huayu looked back at her, still smiling gently and said:
"Where is my sister thinking? What belongs to my sister belongs to my sister. As a sister, how can I snatch it?"

"Better so."

Pei Shuli snorted, and then ignored Pei Huayu, but warmly took Pei Xiaoran's hand and continued to chat.

Pei Huayu's eyes flickered for a moment, then she stepped up and left here slowly.

With Pei Huayu's departure, Pei Xiaoran's thoughts also flowed away.

It seems that Mrs. Zhao must have said something to Pei Huayu, but not Pei Shuli.

The relationship between sisters Pei Huayu and Pei Shuli has obviously become much more distant.

Could it be that Mrs. Zhao and Pei Huayu have already decided to abandon this stupid 'pawn' of Pei Shuli?

Although the three are blood relatives, this guess seems extremely absurd.

But judging from the three people's vicious hearts, this kind of thing may not happen.

In order to achieve her goal, she even gave up her own daughter...

It seems that this Zhao family is ambitious enough.

However, this does not affect her plan.

What about 'abandoned son'?

She can still 'turn waste into treasure'.

After Pei Xiaoran cleared his mind, he didn't stay too long.

After all, her goal has been achieved, the next step is to see Pei Shuli's 'performance'.

"I'm really sorry to bother my sister here for so long, sister, take a good rest, and I'll take my leave first."

Pei Xiaoran stood up, had a few polite words with Pei Shuli, and then took the maids to leave.

As soon as she left, Pei Shuli jumped up immediately, ran to the trays of gold, silver and jewelry, picked them up carefully, and looked at each one carefully.

Now, these are all hers, all hers!

Pei Shuli's eyes were shining brightly, and her face was also full of greed.

Among them, a particularly shining gold bracelet attracted her attention.

The carving of this gold bracelet is extremely fine, the top layers of stamens are lifelike, rich and glorious, and the beautifully curved notches reflect extremely dazzling golden light under the sunlight.

Even when she was living a life of luxury in the Duke's mansion, she had never seen such a gorgeous and delicate gold bracelet.

Pei Shuli couldn't put it down to this gold bracelet, but she couldn't get enough of it after looking over and over again.

Finally, she accidentally found two words inside the gold bracelet——

Xin Ran.

Xin Ran?

What does it mean?
Beloved, or admired?
Don't even think about it, it must be Pei Xiaoran.

Pei Shuli curled her lips, feeling jealous in her heart.

She has many more suitors than Pei Xiaoran.

However, none of them had ever given her such an extremely exquisite and thoughtful gift.

However, who gave this gift to Pei Xiaoran?The emperor?

No, if it's a gift from the emperor, you can engrave the word "heart and peace" on the outside, wouldn't it be more conspicuous and better reflect your love?

Why sneak around and engrave it inside, as if afraid of being seen by someone?
A flash of light flashed in Pei Shuli's mind, and she vaguely sensed something.

Her heart skipped a beat, and then she became uncontrollably excited.
