stern wife

Chapter 382
Xie Yi asked:

"Then what should we do? We can't keep silent after suffering a loss, right? Wouldn't that make the two dogs of the Cao family look down on us?"

Pei Xiaoran waved his hand and said:

"Don't worry, delivering food is the most important thing right now. As for those enmities...let's wait until the food delivery is finished."

Pei Xiaoran has always been one-sided. Along the way, several masters have also seen the courage of this little thing in front of others, knowing that every decision she makes has her own considerations.

Therefore, I can only save the fire in my heart, and wait until the food is delivered before sending it out.

At the same time, in the Cao family's carriage.

In the carriage with thick felt on the walls and roof, two maids were kneeling on the felt blanket, one was beating Cao Huimin's shoulder lightly with a small pink fist, and the other was pouring tea for Cao Tailai.

Cao Huimin waved his hand, and the two girls immediately exited the carriage quietly. After they left, Cao Huimin smiled and said:

"If Pei Xiaoran's life is not good, he is probably already dead at this time. If his life is serious, he will think that our plan has failed and he will relax his vigilance if he finds out the poison we planted in the buns. In this way, we will tonight So that she won't be aware of her plan in advance, Dad really is a good plan."

Cao Tailai picked up the teacup and took a sip, sneered, and said:
"I didn't expect that Pei Xiaoran was young, but she was capable. She had avoided many dangers along the way, so she couldn't use ordinary means to deal with her."

Cao Huimin said sourly:
"If she has no ability, it is impossible for her to be in the eyes of the Holy One, and still be favored like this, but what if she is favored again? If she loses the food this time, and caused countless people to die because of her, even if the Holy Majesty favors her again , and it is absolutely impossible to keep her."

Cao Tailai nodded slightly and said:
"That's inevitable."

The father and son looked at each other and smiled, their eyes full of determination.

Cao Huimin hated Pei Xiaoran because he had been tricked by Pei Xiaoran, causing him to lose his master in Pei's house.

Cao Tailai wanted to get rid of Pei Xiaoran because, like those courtiers, he never agreed to let Pei Xiaoran deliver food from the beginning to the end.

The reason why Emperor Chixuan chose Cao Tailai to deliver food with Pei Xiaoran was because Cao Tailai was too timid, fearing that he would offend Emperor Chixuan and cause disaster, so he never dared to express his opposition to this matter in front of Emperor Chixuan.

This made Emperor Chixuan mistakenly think that he is different from those ministers who disagreed.

Emperor Chixuan, who was so rare to find a 'confidant', ordered Cao Tailai to accompany Pei Xiaoran to deliver food without hesitation.

But they didn't know that Cao Tailai was the same as those ministers!
Like those ministers, he absolutely does not want Pei Xiaoran to gain any power.

Who made Pei Xiaoran a woman?
If she was a man, even if she was younger, perhaps the ministers would not object so fiercely.

However, men are used to being in power, so they inexplicably develop a sense of superiority. They always feel that women are 'humble' and 'weak', and they are 'unusable'.

Therefore, even if it uses all means, Cao Tailai will make Pei Xiaoran's mission fail this time, so that Emperor Chixuan will never use her again!

The night gradually deepened, and the surroundings became quiet, only the crackling sound of burning torches and the whistling sound of the strong wind blowing.

Pei Xiaoran, who was wrapped into a meat dumpling by her fourth brother, only had a pair of eyes exposed. Sitting in one position for a long time felt a little uncomfortable. She moved with difficulty, and her eyes never left the place where the food was placed.

She had already slept in the carriage when she was on her way during the day, and she didn't feel sleepy at this time. Her round eyes were full of energy, and under the light of the fire, they reflected a little bit of light.

I don't know when there is a few traces of sweet smell wrapped in the wind, which is a bit like the fragrance of flowers, but it can't be smelled clearly, it is vague and vague.

Pei Xiaoran moved his nose, and when he wanted to confirm, he found that the scent was gone, and he couldn't help wondering if it was his hallucination.

Time passed bit by bit, her straight waist slowly fell towards the wall of the car behind her, and her eyelids became heavier and heavier.

Even she herself didn't realize that her consciousness was slowly blurring, quietly leading her to sink into dreams.

The surroundings became quieter, and only occasionally could I hear the sound of the wind blowing by. Pei Xiaoran thought that she was awake, and she heard the sound of the wind, but in fact, she had already fallen asleep, and the sound she heard did not come from ear, but from a dream.

After a while, a servant came out of Cao Tailai's carriage.

He tiptoed out of the carriage, first looked around, and saw that there was nothing unusual, then stepped on the thick snow, slowly came to Pei Xiaoran's carriage, and looked in through the opened window.

Seeing that the little girl inside was leaning against the car wall and sleeping with her eyes closed, the man nodded in satisfaction, and then turned to the tent built around the grain and grass.

In order to prevent someone from stealing the food, Pei Xiaoran asked the soldiers to pitch tents around the food and grass to surround the food and grass, so that even if someone came to steal the food, there was no way to transport the food out.

The man looked at the circle of tents built around the grain and grass, curled his lips in disdain, said "child's trick" with his mouth, and got into one of the tents.

After a while, people came out of several tents one after another. They were the people who were in charge of driving horses and transporting food and grass on weekdays.

Those people dismantled the tent, put it away, and threw the luggage on the horse's back.

Along the way, the horses were very familiar with them, so they were very obedient and did not make any noise.

They harnessed the horses again, and directed the horses to pull the grain carts out one after another.

After they were all out of the encirclement, they all stopped and looked at Cao Tailai's men together.

Cao Tailai's subordinates walked over, beckoned a few people to come over, turned around and looked around, seeing that no one was alarmed, then lowered their voice and said:

"The remuneration has been prepared for you. It is guaranteed to be enough for your family to eat and drink for two lifetimes. However, you will not get it until you finish your work. Now, take these food and run separately. Run as fast as you can." Hurry up, run as far as you can, don't let Pei Xiaoran's troops catch up, otherwise, those rewards of yours will be life-saving or dead-end, remember it?"

Those people didn't dare to make a sound, and nodded vigorously when they heard the words.

Cao Tailai's subordinates smiled with satisfaction, took out a stack of thick bank notes from their sleeves, divided each of them into two, and said:
"This is the deposit, take it first."

The eyes of those people suddenly shot greedy light, and after receiving the deposit, they quickly collected the place on their bodies that they thought was safe.

Cao Tailai's subordinates said again:

"One more thing, if anyone of you is unfortunately caught by that little girl, don't say something you shouldn't say, and confess someone who shouldn't be confessed, otherwise, I will let your whole family stay with you Go on the road, never relent, understand?"

Hearing the mention of Pei Xiaoran, those people's expressions showed a bit of contempt, and some of them even showed a bit of obscenity|obscenity.

They nodded one after another, patted their chests, and said: There is no way that I will be caught by a little girl!

Cao Tailai's subordinates smiled and waved their hands, and the group of people disbanded on the spot, waving their whips to drive the horses to gallop in different directions.
