stern wife

Chapter 353

Qing Huai sighed and said:

"It wasn't the Lantern Festival that day. We were tired from walking, so we wanted to find a place to rest, but there were people everywhere. I was afraid of any accidents, so I suggested that Your Highness find a place with few people, so I went to your place. Listen There was a fight in the alley, His Highness asked me to go in and see what happened, so I went, just in time to see you being restrained, I thought it was too much for a group of big men to bully a little girl, so I couldn't hold back my shot ,That's it."

Pei Xiaoran nodded, so it turned out that it was just a coincidence.

"ah!"

Pei Xiaoran and Qing Huai were chatting, when they suddenly heard an exclamation from the front, and looked up quickly, thinking that something dangerous happened.

In the end, I saw Pei Youmin stretching out a slender finger, pointing at a big tree not far ahead, and said to Zhu Lianxi in surprise:
"Look, Your Highness, there is a bird's nest there!"

Pei Xiaoran: "..."

Qinghuai: "..."

It's just a bird's nest, so as to be so surprised as if you saw some rare and strange beast?
Qinghuai looked sympathetically, looked at Pei Xiaoran and said:

"That cousin of yours seems to be very strictly controlled by the family."

I haven't even seen a bird's nest, how ignorant is this?

Pei Xiaoran helplessly supported his forehead, and didn't want to speak at all.

But what the two of them didn't know was that the bird's nest they were powerless to complain about was an excuse that Pei Youmin found with great difficulty to interrupt.

Zhu Lianxi and Zhu Tingzhi talked about trivial matters in the palace, and Pei Youmin had never lived in the palace, so she couldn't speak at all, and was anxious to scratch her heart.

As a result, he accidentally raised his head and found a big bird's nest. He immediately took it to heart, and hurriedly pointed to the bird's nest, pretending to be surprised, trying to attract Zhu Lianxi's attention to himself.

Zhu Lianxi's voice paused, and she really looked at Pei Youmin.

Pei Youmin was overjoyed, and hurriedly lowered her head slightly, biting her lower lip lightly with her white teeth, making an infinitely charming and shy look.

Zhu Lianxi frowned slightly, and recognized that this was Pei Xiaoran's cousin, what was her name?

But the name is not important, the question is, how did she appear here?What are you screaming about again?
The atmosphere was momentarily embarrassing, making one's scalp tingle.

Pei Youmin, however, was immersed in her own fantasy, thinking that the other party would fall in love with her at first sight just like herself.

She tried her best to put on the posture that she thought was the most charming and good-looking she had practiced in front of the mirror countless times, and shyly threw a bold and shy wink at the other party.

When Zhu Lianxi saw her, she frowned even tighter, thinking that this woman was so bold that she dared to roll her eyes at him.

But considering that she is Pei Xiaoran's cousin, she doesn't care about it.

Of course, if this woman had nothing to do with Pei Xiaoran, he would have had someone drag this inexplicable woman down for disposal.

Zhu Lianxi looked back, as if she didn't hear what Pei Youmin said or did at all, and continued to talk to Zhu Tingzhi just now.

Zhu Tingzhi, on the other hand, felt that Pei Youmin was the daughter of the Pei family after all, and it was a bit inappropriate for her to lose face like this, so she said:

"The bird's nest is indeed quite big, but now that the weather is getting colder, the birds inside should start flying south to prepare for the winter."

Zhu Lianxi didn't want to answer Pei Youmin's words at all, but Zhu Lianxi still accepted Zhu Tingzhi's words.

Zhu Lianxi nodded and said:
"That's true, but if the fourth brother likes birds, I happen to have a few canaries in my place. When I get back, I'll ask someone to pick the most beautiful one and send it to you."

As soon as his words fell, before Zhu Tingzhi could answer, Pei Youmin shouted happily, saying:
"I like birds very much too! How about His Highness give me one too, okay?"

Pei Youmin didn't take the Eldest Prince's ignorance of her just now, she blinked her big moist eyes without any discouragement, looked at Zhu Lianxi expectantly, and clasped her hands in front of her chest, waving Make a face of praying.

Pei Youmin didn't feel that her behavior was very rude and abrupt, she just thought that His Highness the First Prince ignored her because he was shy.

When His Royal Highness the First Prince is not speaking, he is very quiet and elegant, and his temperament seems very restrained. In addition, he is not yet married, and has never even had a side concubine, so it is normal to be shy.

Zhu Lianxi's face turned cold all of a sudden, this woman was so rude and forcibly interrupted again and again, which already made him very displeased.

Even Zhu Tingzhi, who originally wanted to help Pei Youmin relieve her embarrassment, frowned slightly.

No matter if you are a commoner or a wealthy family, you should know that forcibly interrupting other people's conversations is a very rude behavior.

A lady from a rich family should understand this truth even more.

How could this Miss Pei be so blank, didn't she see that his elder brother's complexion had already started to turn bad?
Zhu Tingzhi simply shut up, not bothering to help such a rude woman get back her face.

Seeing that the two princes were silent, and did not reply to her words and did not continue the conversation, Pei Youmin finally realized something was wrong, restrained her expression and said cautiously:

"Is it, is it that the little girl said something wrong? Made the two Highnesses angry?"

Zhu Tingzhi said lightly:

"Miss Pei didn't come to say that the reason why she came with us was to protect your cousin? We have entered the forest now, and wild animals will appear around at any time. I think Miss Pei should go back to your cousin It's safer to go around."

When Pei Youmin heard this, she pouted her lips disapprovingly.

Whether Pei Xiaoran lives or dies has nothing to do with her?That little bastard should die quickly!
But seeing Zhu Lianxi's unhappy face, Pei Youmin didn't dare to stay any longer to annoy him, so she could only say reluctantly:
"Then... that's fine. The two Highnesses must also be careful, and the little girl will step back first."

Although she said "Your Highnesses", Pei Youmin's eyes were only glued to Zhu Lianxi from beginning to end.

No matter how dull people are, they can see her intentions, but Zhu Tingzhi is not a gossip person, even if he saw something, he didn't say it, just nodded slightly, and said:

"Go."

Pei Youmin had no choice but to tighten the reins to slow down the horse's pace, and waited for Pei Xiaoran from behind to follow up.

Seeing Pei Youmin being left behind, Pei Xiaoran, who had captured all the interactions between the three of them, couldn't help but raised his hand and touched his chin, his eyes thoughtful.

She said that her cousin could not have followed her because of protecting her, and judging from what she saw just now, could it be...

While he was thinking, a chill ran up his back like a spirit snake.

Pei Xiaoran's expression froze, and he quickly swept around.

Qinghuai saw that something was wrong with her expression, and followed her to look around, but after scanning around carefully, she didn't find anything unusual.

At this time, the group of them had just entered the forest not long ago, so they were at the entrance of the forest.

The trees at the entrance are very sparse, and through the large gaps between the trees, you can clearly see the distant scenery.

Therefore, if there are any beasts or people, they can be seen at a glance.

"What's the matter?" Qing Huai couldn't help asking Pei Xiaoran in confusion.

Pei Xiaoran's expression became more serious, she said softly:

"Don't you feel it?"

Qing Huai wondered: "What do you feel?"

Pei Xiaoran glanced at him and said:
"Murderous intent."

Before Qinghuai could react, Pei Xiaoran had already clamped the horse's belly, driving the horse to run forward quickly.
