stern wife

Chapter 120
Pei Runzhi also felt a little puzzled. He was the eldest son in the family. He knew exactly how the old lady had treated them all these years. How could his face, which had not changed for more than ten years, suddenly change today?
Uh... Could it be that something unclean got on her body...

While thanking the old lady for her kindness, Pei Runzhi was deeply worried about the old lady's health.

Pei Xiaoran was originally worried that his elder brother would be deceived by the old lady's appearance, but when he looked up, he saw that his elder brother's face was full of confusion and worry, and he didn't seem to be moved at all, so he was relieved.

That's right, the old lady has done evil for so many years, even if she really reforms, can the previous things be written off?

The harm she has done to others and the pain she has brought to others cannot be eliminated in a lifetime.

So... take it easy.

Horses are not allowed in the city except for sending urgent reports, so a group of people led the horses and walked slowly towards the city gate under the leadership of Pei Xingshan.

The people rest at sunset and work at sunrise. At this time, the shops on both sides of the street are open, and there are already pedestrians on the street.

Seeing this huge team, the pedestrians gave way one after another, looked around curiously, and talked a lot.

Pei Runzhi had already fought many battles with Pei Xingshan, and he was very used to being surrounded by people, and would bow his head from time to time, chatting with his sister.

He has a slender figure, with a straight back. Because of his years of martial arts practice, he looks particularly vigorous and handsome. However, he is not as aggressive as his father Pei Xingshan, but has inherited his mother's gentleness.

Such as spring water overflowing pond, green willow hanging silk, it is amiable to watch.

Many older girls and daughter-in-laws saw their faces flushed, and in the crowd, a pretty white figure quietly blushed under the hood.

The little girl next to her yawned, looked sleepily with her own lady, and couldn't help muttering in a low voice:
"It still looks the same as before... It's not like I haven't seen it before. Why did Miss get up early and go out just to wait here to see him?"

The woman in white shook her head slightly, her voice was as clear as a spring in the mountains, and said:
"You do not understand."

The little girl was still young, so naturally there were still many things she didn't understand, so she curled her lips and yawned again, resigned to her fate, accompanied her master to follow the man's footsteps, and walked slowly towards the city gate.

At the city gate, Marquis Weiyuan was already waiting there with his guards. When he saw Pei Xingshan, he hurried forward to salute.

Although Pei Runzhi's official rank was far inferior to Marquis Weiyuan, Pei Xingshan, the Duke of the State, was above Marquis Weiyuan.

Marquis Weiyuan smiled all over his face and said:

"I haven't seen you for a long time. Are you all right, Mr. Pei?"

"Lord Lao Hou is worried, everything is fine," Pei Xingshan gave a hand, then pointed to Pei Runzhi and said:

"Zhuzi is ignorant, and I hope Lord Hou will give me more advice. If there is any offense, please forgive me."

Pei Runzhi lowered his eyebrows, took a step forward, saluted Wei Yuanhou, and said:
"Master Hou is well."

Marquis Weiyuan quickly stepped forward to help him, saying:

"What does Mr. Pei say? This is what a subordinate official should do. Please hurry up and invite Mr. Pei."

But at this moment, a waxy child's voice came in and said:

"Father's words are wrong~"

Pei Xingshan frowned, and looked across, it was indeed Pei Xiaoran who made the sound.

Pei Xiaoran said with a smile:

"Brother is the coach appointed by the Holy One, how could he be an 'ignorant' person? Could it be that father means that the Holy One has no eyes and appointed an 'ignorant' person to be the commander of the first army?"

"You! Don't talk nonsense in front of outsiders!"

You are the one talking nonsense!
'Zhuzi' is a curse word!
Although Pei Xingshan, as Pei Runzhi's father, could beat and scold his son at will.

However, his son is also his eldest brother!No one can bully elder brother in front of her!

Pei Xiaoran sighed softly, he was no longer as aggressive as before, but said in a low voice:

"My eldest brother fought many battles with his father and learned a lot from his father on the battlefield, but his father called him 'Zhuzi' and said he was ignorant. My eldest brother must feel uncomfortable. I know my father is humble, but he is too humble. If you hit your head, it will hurt people."

She suddenly stopped confronting her, which made Pei Xingshan unable to react for a while.

Marquis Weiyuan understood it.

The little girl first pointed out that her elder brother was the coach "handpicked" by the Holy Master, and then pointed out that her elder brother had fought many battles with Pei Xingshan, and he did not rely on divine favor to get this job.

While refuting Pei Xingshan, he was also reminding him not to bully her elder brother just because of his high official position and seniority, and not to think that her elder brother is a worthless fool and look down on him.

Don't forget, even though her eldest brother is at odds with Pei Xingshan and his son, there is a Holy Master behind him to support him!

Therefore, no matter how Pei Xingshan belittled Pei Runzhi, he, Marquis of Weiyuan, had better not believe it.

Marquis Weiyuan couldn't help straightening his face and looked at Pei Xiaoran, carefully looking her up and down several times.

There are so many stunningly talented, beautiful, and talented women in Jijing, but it happens that only this little girl who is less than ten years old won the emperor's heart.

It was heard that she not only helped Great Yin Li Wang successfully retrieve the jade pendant, but also delivered it to the gate of the mansion by the Holy Majesty himself when he returned to the mansion.

Marquis Weiyuan originally thought that the Holy Majesty loved her so much only because of her meritorious service in saving him.

Looking at it now, this little girl not only has good skills and sharp teeth, but she is also shockingly proficient in this world.

Tsk, no wonder being so favored by the Holy Majesty, even Marquis Weiyuan himself began to feel that this little girl has extraordinary intelligence and skill, and when she grows up, she must be extraordinary.

It's a pity that it's not my daughter.

Thinking of the daughter left behind by his previous wife, Wei Yuanhou couldn't help but darken his eyes.

But in an instant, this unknown emotion disappeared without a trace.

Seeing Pei Xiaoran showing weakness, Pei Xingshan couldn't get angry again.

It's just that under the watchful eyes of everyone, if he let Pei Xiaoran go, wouldn't he lose his dignity?

Just as he was about to reprimand this careless daughter in the name of 'disobedience to the elders', so that he could get off the stage, Marquis Weiyuan had already observed his words, and spoke first:

"Haha! What Miss Pei said is very true! Who doesn't know that Mr. Pei was hand-picked by the sage? The sage has discerning eyes, Mr. Pei must be a smart, agile, brave and powerful person, Mr. Pei, don't be humble anymore!"

It all involved the Holy Spirit, so Pei Xingshan naturally didn't dare to belittle Pei Runzhi, so he could only walk down the steps and said with a smile:
"Your Majesty has won the prize."

After greetings, it's time to set off.

Pei Xingshan turned around, and the gentle expression when he was chatting and laughing with Marquis Weiyuan disappeared in the blink of an eye, replaced by a serious face and a faint disgust that others could not detect, and he ordered the corporal to stand behind him with his head bowed. Pei Runzhi said:

"Hurry up and get on the road, don't make Lord Hou wait for a long time."
