Dressed as a vicious stepmother, farming and raising cubs

The sharp laughter reached Su Liu's ears, as if every syllable was mocking her status as an outsider.

Su Liu couldn't help but snort in his heart. It seemed that Wen Ruoshui wanted to win over those acquaintances and join forces to isolate himself.

Unfortunately, she didn't like this.

Just as she was about to retort, she saw another person slamming the table and standing up, saying angrily:

"What you said is too much! She is the legitimate lady of the General's Mansion!"

When he saw that person, Su Liu doubted that he was old and rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

Pei Xuening actually helped him. Didn't he look like he was at odds with him the last time they met?

"Hey, who do I think I am? Isn't this my second brother's little follower?"

Wen Ruoshui smiled contemptuously, obviously not taking Pei Xuening seriously, but instead sarcastically mocked him.

Pei Xuening's face suddenly turned red, and she retorted with embarrassment and annoyance:

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

"Who doesn't know that Miss Pei likes to follow the second young master of the Wen family? She is not shy and insists on getting in touch with him."

Wen Ruoshui's friends also joined in, each one saying something, which made Pei Xuening speechless and could only blow his beard and stare angrily.

Su Liu sighed silently in his heart. Is this child still so young that he doesn't know how to quarrel?

So she stood up and walked to Pei Xuening.

"There is nothing wrong with daring to express one's likes and dislikes, but you all claim to be ladies, but now you are gossiping in front of your face. I don't know how you were taught at home."

Su Liu's aura was much stronger, his eyes were indifferent and indifferent, and he looked down at several people from above.

The opponent's arrogance suddenly weakened a bit, but Wen Ruoshui still refused to give up.

"Better than some country girls who don't even know how to respect their elders."

The others here, including her, are indeed older than Su Liu, but in terms of seniority, they are still of the same generation.

Normally, Wen Ruoshui would deliberately pretend to be friendly and gentle in front of the general and his wife, but now, with only a few female relatives around, she naturally showed her true colors.

Her words were so ridiculous that Su Liu couldn't help laughing and retorted calmly:

"That's better than some people who know that they are not their biological children and still stay in other people's homes, right?"

After that, she took Pei Xuening's hand and left the banquet.

Anyway, this meal is destined to be bad. Who wants to stay with those gossipy women?

The two of them walked all the way to the backyard, which was much quieter. There were several unique rockeries and a small man-made lake.

Su Liu slowly slowed down, let go of Pei Xuening, turned around and smiled:

"Thank you just now for standing up for me."

Although, the result is completely the opposite.

Pei Xuening lowered his head, feeling a little embarrassed, and said coquettishly:

"Sister Liu, it's me who should say I'm sorry. It turns out you are...I was even jealous of you before. I was so ignorant!"

She originally thought that Su Liu was Wen Shiche's "love affair" outside, but she didn't expect that she was his biological sister!

When she just learned the news at the dinner party, she was completely ashamed.

Su Liu looked at her tangled little expression and couldn't help laughing, and shook his head generously:

"No need, actually I didn't expect it at the time."

"Then, won't you blame me?" Pei Xuening took the opportunity to ask, her clear almond eyes blinking constantly, very endearing.

Su Liu had never been able to resist this kind of thing, so he nodded simply.

For some reason, seeing Pei Xuening this time seemed much more pleasing to the eye than before, and this little girl also became more sensible than before. "That's great." Pei Xuening cheered, took Su Liu's arm affectionately, and rubbed it gently, "Then we will be good friends from now on!"

"Okay, okay." Su Liu rubbed her head lovingly.

Unexpectedly, she recognized her identity as the legitimate daughter of the General's Mansion and gained a cute little sister, which was not a loss.

Although their previous relationship was not good, at this moment, they can be considered to have settled their differences.

After uniting the front with Su Liu, Pei Xuening immediately showed an indignant expression on his face and muttered:

"I have long disliked Wen Ruoshui. It turns out that she is a fake. She has been carrying your identity for so many years! And she is so arrogant to you!"

Su Liu also nodded with deep sympathy and said a wise saying:

"This is called being shameless and invincible."

Pei Xuening laughed out loud at her words, two shallow dimples were squeezed out of her cheeks, and her eyes narrowed into a crescent shape.

After she finished laughing, she seemed to suddenly think of something. She pulled Su Liu's sleeve curiously and said:

"Speaking of which, she is wearing a veil on her face today. What does that mean? Is it popular recently?"

Hearing this, Su Liu couldn't help but sneered, curled his lips and said:

"What's popular is that she has a rash on her face and doesn't want others to see it."

She knew this best, but unfortunately, she couldn't tell Pei Xuening the truth.

"That's it." Pei Xuening smiled a little gloatingly, his eyes rolling around as if he was thinking about something.

The two strolled around the backyard a few times and chatted for a while.

Pei Xuening was very interested in the details of Su Liu's family recognition and kept asking. Su Liu patiently answered them one by one, hiding only the part that he did deliberately.

Counting the time, the banquet should be almost over, so the two of them turned back.

The guests gathered in the front yard again, neatly arranged in two rows, with the general and his wife sitting on the top seat.

Wen Shiche and others were surprised to see Su Liu and Pei Xuening coming back hand in hand.

"When did your relationship become so good?" Wen Shiche pointed at the two of them, his jaw almost dropped in shock.

Hearing this, the two of them looked at each other and smiled in tacit understanding, without answering.

Wen Shiche suddenly felt even more horrified. He quietly approached Su Liu and said in a low voice:

"I'm telling you, this girl is very difficult to deal with. If you get entangled with her, then..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Pei Xuening's angry voice.

"Brother Che! Don't slander me!"

The two began to chase and fight on the spot, and for a while, the air was filled with an atmosphere of joy.

"Shi Che, stop making trouble."

Mrs. Li coughed twice in displeasure, and then the two of them stopped.

"And Liu'er and Xiaoxiao, please go back and sit down quickly."

Hearing this, the three of them nodded obediently and returned to their seats.

Su Liu noticed that some of the rich ladies around him had changed their clothes, and some were holding musical instruments such as Ruanqin and Pipa in their arms.

She suddenly became curious, moved next to Pei Xuening, and asked:

"What are they doing?"

"Don't you know?" Pei Xuening looked at her in surprise, "This is an old tradition."
