stern wife

Chapter 22 The thief's heart is immortal
Just as she was about to walk out with two short legs, someone grabbed her arm. When she turned around, she saw Pei Runzhi frowning at her, saying:
"It's freezing outside, so... don't go out to play."

Pei Yuxuan nodded, and said to Pei Huayu and Pei Shuli in a pleasant manner:

"It's not that Xiaoran wants to break her promise, but her body is just right, and it's not suitable for the wind. When the weather gets warmer, her body will be completely recovered. How about I take you outside to play?"

Girls' "going outside to play" is at most playing in the backyard of the house. For the sake of reputation and safety, they can't easily go out of the door.

Therefore, Pei Yuxuan's promise was quite attractive.

Pei Huayu and Pei Shuli looked at each other, both a little moved.

However, Pei Xiaoran understood that Pei Wenchang had already left an indelible psychological shadow on her two elder brothers. He was afraid that Pei Wenchang would come to trouble her again, so he was worried about her going out alone.

She looked at the two elder brothers, smiled comfortingly, and said:
"It's okay, the same somersault, my little sister won't fall down again unprepared, and there are so many sisters around me, he can't afford to hurt anyone accidentally, the two brothers can rest assured. After a pause, he said again:
"I won't go out for too long. I'll just lead my two younger sisters around and then go back. Brothers don't have to worry."

Pei Runzhi and Pei Yuxuan looked at each other, they both knew that this younger sister had her own ideas since she fell into the water, so they had to let her go.

Before leaving, Pei Huayu did not forget to timidly confirm to Pei Yuxuan:
"Third brother said that he would take us out to play. Do you still count on this?"

This pair of twin sisters has been very close to Pei Xiaoran since they were young. Pei Yuxuan and Pei Runzhi love Wujiwu, so naturally they love them very much. Hearing this, Pei Yuxuan nodded and said with a smile:
"Nature counts."

Only then did Pei Huayu happily follow Pei Xiaoran away.

The cold wind is bleak, the grass is dead and the leaves are withered, the flowers are not blooming, and there are not many birds. There is really nothing interesting outside. Pei Xiaoran is quite bored, but for the real six-year-old children——Pei Huayu and Pei Shuli, compared to It's much more fun to be outside than to be bored in the house.

A few maids followed behind not far or near, each staring at their little master for fear of any mistakes, Pei Xiaoran turned around inadvertently, saw Ling Yu was among them, and couldn't help being slightly startled.

She thought that Ling Yu didn't follow her and stayed in the yard, so it seems that Ling Yu was actually following her when Pei Wenchang attacked her in the morning?

Seeing her master being attacked unexpectedly, she turned her back on him like an invisible person, and then appeared next to him like a normal person, which is enough to show how thick-skinned and hard-hearted he is.

Pei Xiaoran was already sure that Ling Yu was a spy sent by someone else, but he didn't know whose minion she would be?

Just as he was guessing, he suddenly heard a soft laugh coming from the front, Pei Xiaoran looked up, it turned out that it was Pei Youmin who was leading the two second-bedroom girls leaning against the stone railing and laughing.

Pei Youmin caught sight of the three of them out of the corner of her eye, turned her head and greeted with a smile:
"I asked who it was, it turned out to be Huayu and Sister Shuli, come here, let's play together," he said and glanced at Pei Xiaoran, the smile on his face suddenly became a little fake, but it still looked very Warmly beckoning:

"Sister Xiaoran is here too, come here quickly, we sisters haven't had a good get-together for quite a while."

How can a child not like to be lively?Pei Shuli was about to get closer, but Pei Huayu grabbed her.

Pei Huayu looked at Pei Xiaoran, and asked softly, "Sixth Sister, do we want to go there?"

Pei Xiaoran glanced at her, and said:
"Of course, I haven't had fun with my cousin for quite a while, but I miss her!"

Only then did Pei Huayu pull Pei Shuli and walked over with Pei Xiaoran.

Pei Xiaoran was a little apprehensive as he walked all the way. Although a six-year-old child had already begun to understand some things, he was still young after all. Pei Huayu and Pei Shuli, who were so young, could understand that everything was their own way. It seemed that Aunt Zhao behind them, I put in a lot of effort...

Since she started planning so early, it's no wonder that she will lose in the end.

When I got closer, I found that behind the stone railing was a large lake. It was cold in winter, and a layer of ice formed on the surface of the lake, reflecting the skylight, making it very beautiful.

It's been a long time since Pei Xiaoran walked around the backyard of Pei's mansion. In her previous life, after she got married, she was either in the palace or in the frontier fortress. She had no time to go back to the manor to visit her relatives. In this life, she fell ill as soon as she came back, and she couldn't even get up, let alone Come out and run around.

So Pei Xiaoran didn't remember that there was a lake in her backyard until now, but what she didn't know was that this was the lake where she fell into the water.

Seeing Pei Xiaoran staring at the lake in a daze, Pei Youmin rolled his eyes, approached with a handkerchief, and said with a smile:
"My sister wants to go skating on that lake again?"

again?
No matter how cold the climate here is, the ice in the water will not freeze too thick, so adults often warn children not to play on the ice in winter. She is not without brains, how could she run on it? to play?
Pei Youmin just pretended to be a child who remembers to eat but not to fight. She sneered in her heart, and the smile on her face became brighter. Pointing to the cold and shining lake, she said:
"Last time my sister stepped on the wrong place and fell. If my sister wants to go up to play, she has to go to the center of the lake. The ice is the thickest there, so there is no need to worry about falling."

To the center of the lake?

Hehe, if you fall, you will die the fastest there.

The clothes you wear in winter are many and thick, and once you fall into the water, the clothes on your body will become the heaviest burden.

Coupled with the cold water in the lake, people's limbs will soon be frozen and they will not be able to move. Even if they still have strength, the surrounding ice will shatter when touched. How can they climb ashore?

Adults may not be able to come up alive after sunset in winter, let alone a child?

Pei Xiaoran narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Pei Youmin, Pei Youmin was the same age as Pei Wenchang, it's impossible not to know what the fate of falling into the water in winter would be, so... She really wants to die by herself?
Seeing that Pei Xiaoran just looked at her without blinking and didn't speak, Pei Youmin felt inexplicably guilty, and forced a smile and said:
"Sister Xiaoran, don't worry, just go and play, we will keep it a secret for you, and no one will tell the adults."

It was as if he was begging her to let him play on the ice.

Seeing that Pei Xiaoran was still looking at her in silence, Pei Youmin frowned secretly, and continued to coax:

"Ice skating is fun. There are fish under the ice. I don't know if my sister has seen it? There was a little accident last time and I didn't let my sister have a good time. Doesn't my sister want to have fun this time?"
