Chapter 86 - connect
This incident is an anticlimactic end, but the aftermath left has not been broken. Today, I specially held a wedding ceremony. Originally, I wanted to explore the truth of the Bai family, and by the way, taught Bai Yinhua not to try to fight with the daughter of the Xu family in the future.
Now it’s alright, but in the end it was the Xu family’s face that was lost.
Xu Litao didn’t support Shi Shi and Xu Huan at all, and this time he was even more angry.
Shi Shi was also aggrieved: “I’ve been in charge of a whole family’s affairs all day long, who would have known that the second room, looking at the honesty, would still be able to do such a sleazy thing, after all, it was the uncle in the next room, even the second brother and sister. I don’t know, how can I know?”
Xu Litao glanced at her sideways: “The place where the girl’s body was found is the boundary of the second room? It’s right next to the small garden!”
With a wave of his hand, he said, “In the end, it’s your housekeeper who is not strict! You still spoil your daughter. You can let her do what she says and do? You will regret it when you look back and make trouble!”
Speaking of the first half of the sentence, Shi can’t help but feel a little guilty. She focused on the third and fourth rooms, which are the same as the Changfang. But after listening to the second half, she couldn’t be convinced.
“What’s wrong with Gillian? It’s all the fault of Brother Hao from the second room. What does it have to do with our Gillian?”
“It’s nothing to do with her, why did you think of holding this banquet today?” Xu Litao said angrily, although he loves his daughter, but if the family’s reputation is involved, no matter how much love is involved, anger will prevail, “Okay, Anyway, Gillian will get married soon, so you should concentrate on preparing her dowry, and don’t worry about the others.”
Shi Shi was startled: “That second room…” She cursed more than once in her heart that the little beast in the second room dared to do such an evil act in the mansion, causing the Marquis of Chengen to lose all face in the capital, and to say it was easy to let him go, Shi Shi is not reconciled.
Xu Litao said coldly, “Father said he would discipline his grandson himself, can you stop him?”
When the Marquis of Chengen spoke, even Shi Shi only had the share of promise, please whisper unwillingly: “I didn’t see it before, father is so partial to the second room?”
“What do you know?” Xu Litao didn’t want to go into detail with her, but only instructed, “In the next few days, please let Gillian calm down, don’t worry about King An or the Bai family, and if there is any trouble, she will be taken away. The dowry is reduced by 10%.”
“Master Shi?” Shi hurriedly said, “How can this be done? We have only one daughter.”
Xu Litao frowned and said displeasedly: “If you can’t bear it, just stare at her carefully, won’t you?” After that, he lost his patience, turned around and left, “You rest first, I’ll go to the study and sit for a while.”
Shi originally wanted to stop her, but then she thought about Xu Huan, who was running back to the room with her head down.
…
On the other side, Bai Yinhua, who thought he had succeeded, was secretly complacent.
She worried day and night that the Xu family would kill her because of Prince An’s attack on her, which would cause her reputation to be ruined, and her life at worst, so the Xu family suddenly sent invitations, but she did not dare to accept them.
After thinking about it, instead of fidgeting at home, it would be better to do it first, so that the Xu family has no time to take care of her.
Bai Yinhua is a smart person, knowing that Xu Jiayuan didn’t take their Bai family as a small family, but Xu Yan refused to let her go because he loved King An. That’s why she thought of a way to add a dark cloud to the reputation of Xu Jiafeng’s clear moon It will allow Xu Huan to add a little unnecessary trouble to this.
So she didn’t dare to start with the few rooms that she had descended from, so she could only pick the soft persimmon of the second room.
As Shi said, the Xu family has a big business, with one family and four bedrooms. She just thought that it would be impossible to control all the affairs, especially the second family, especially the xenophobic. Even if the Yun family is not a big deal, But he is also bored in his own yard all day long, and he does not communicate with his concubine, and even the servants who have a weak sense of existence can hardly remember that there is a second lady in the house.
Under this premise, it would be easy to buy a few unremarkable servants in the second room.
Bai Yinhua considered himself to be acting for the heavens.
That Xu Hao is not a good thing at first, and calling him a **** is a compliment. She was submissive and ruthless towards her. That Cui’er was actually the maid next to Yun’s. He took a fancy to him. The good girl never opened her eyes again.
It can be considered that Bai Yinhua is lucky. Xu Hao wanted to have Cui’er smuggled out of the house and thrown on the mass grave in the suburbs. The person she bought accidentally saw it, and Bai Yinhua used more money. Changed the burial ground for Tracy.
As for the pendant, it is even simpler. Xu Hao’s father is the only concubine of the Marquis of Cheng’en. He has the weakest momentum among his cousins. Only outside, by virtue of his identity as a son of the Xu family, can he harvest a little slander and gain a little arrogance. , so that pendant is not too delicate for him at all, and it is very conspicuous by hanging it on his body every day.
For Bai Yinhua, she is quite satisfied with the result this time, especially since she met King An today and knew that the sage had agreed, as long as King An marries Xu Huan, he will make a request to marry Bai Yin next time. Hua, let her be his concubine.
In addition to her worries, Bai Yinhua couldn’t help but think of the eldest young master of the Wang family who agreed to assist her in her plan.
Bai Yinhua had also heard of the reputation of the young master of the Wang family in the boudoir, but at that time her fiance was Shen Yuzhi. Everyone looked at her and said that he was not as talented as Shen Yuzhi. Seen with my own eyes, it’s not like that.
Shen Yu is handsome and handsome, and is a gentleman of Zhuo Zhuo, but the eldest young master of the Wang family is cold and distant and seems to be within reach, and the flower in the mirror in the water is somewhat more dangerous and desirable than the former.
Bai Yinhua thought of the Wang family that was at odds with the Xu family at first, but she was a little surprised when the eldest young master of the Wang family nodded.
It was originally a small love and a small grudge between the daughter’s family. It really mattered that the second house was just a son of a concubine. Although it would make the Xu family lose face, it could not be said to hurt the bones. After all, the upbringing of the concubines was different.
After thinking about it, Bai Yinhua couldn’t guess what Young Master Wang’s intentions were, so he asked An Wang whether he had any dealings with him, and it wasn’t.
If it weren’t for the series of events in recent years that had dampened her self-confidence, she almost thought that Young Master Wang was in love with him and that he was so devoted to helping him, at least without him, things would not have ended so smoothly and successfully.
But it doesn’t matter if it’s not, Bai Yinhua sat in front of the make-up robe and stared at the bronze mirror, her beautiful and beautiful face, a faint smile slowly raised on her lips, and her slender fingers that had just been dyed Kodan gently brushed to the side The face, making the tender smile gradually show a hint of bright.
As long as there is a little connection, there is no need to worry about pulling out more.
everything will be fine.
How about the concubine? She still has a chance to win.
…
Seeing that the decree of giving marriage was being sent out one after another, the eldest princess had rested her thoughts on continuing Shen Jingzhi, and she didn’t even want to see his face, she rushed back after hearing people come to ask for peace, and the reasons given were very straightforward: she was so angry that her heart ached. , I feel unwell, and I don’t want to see anyone.
Shen Jingzhi didn’t mean to soften his attitude, he asked An as usual, even the imperial physician was invited, and his attitude was clear: I hope everything is fine with you, mother, but it is impossible for me to agree to marry.
The mother and son were stubborn, almost exactly the same.
Bai Chu didn’t want to block the fire between their mother and son, so he nestled in the Wutong Courtyard with peace of mind. After three days, when it was time to promise Wang Xiuze to return the jade pendant, Bai Chu politely went to Chuyu Pavilion to ask to see the eldest princess, naturally Seeing no one, she came back obediently and meekly, then lazily changed her clothes and lay down comfortably back on the soft slump.
Look, it’s not that she doesn’t want to pay it back, and she can’t do anything if the superiors don’t approve her application for leaving the government. If such an important thing is not returned by herself, if she loses it, how can she bear it?
Shuangxi sat on the round stool next to her, with a basket on her lap, her fingertips twisted the thin silver needles flexibly back and forth, and she inadvertently glanced at the smile on Bai Chu’s lips, and couldn’t help being curious, “Young Master. Madam, did you think of something funny?”
Bai Chu chose thick lines of pure black, dark blue, and silver. Scholar Shuangxi taught her how to weave the network. Except for the awkwardness at the head and tail and the junction, the rest of the time was much more brisk.
She raised her eyes and smiled and glanced at Shuangxi: “It’s nothing, it’s just nonsense.”
She was really looking forward to what unexpected way Wang Xiu could come up with to ask for this jade pendant from her who was trapped in the Shen residence.
Bai Chu admits that he has bad taste, but if he can see Wang Xiu, who is used to playing with other people’s joys, sorrows, and joys in the palm of his hand, he also shows the emotions of those who are regarded as fun by him, wouldn’t it be fun? ?
To a certain extent, Wang Xiu was similar to her, but a little crazier than her.
Bai Chu wanted to watch the show, but he just helped him harmlessly when he had an opportunity. Wang Xiu didn’t. As long as he was interested, he didn’t care if he pushed other people into the abyss or how embarrassing the situation was at the same time.
Essentially a very bad character.
So she vaguely felt that Bai Yinhua used Wang Xiuze to deal with the Xu family, and Bai Ziqi was also involved because she almost got involved in unnecessary right and wrong with Wang Maoxing.
Wang Xiu shouldn’t let her go so easily.
Maybe a long line to catch a big fish?
Then she should not cut off the contact with Wang Xiuze.
Bai Chu watched with satisfaction as he gave Luo Zi a perfect ending. The mesh-shaped bag was not too small or too small, just enough to fit a jade pendant.
“Double Happiness, hang it on the lampshade in front of my bed in the future.”
“Yes.” Shuangxi took it with both hands, stared at it for a while with some doubts, and never remembered when this was in the hands of its own master.
Such a beautiful jade pendant, shouldn’t she forget it when she has seen it?
Wang Xiu didn’t know how to use martial arts. Even if he was as familiar with the Shen residence as the Marquis of Chengen, it was impossible for her to break into the residence carelessly, and she refused to go out. This attitude showed that even if he bought someone to come in, she would still be the same. It won’t be handed over easily.
As for letting someone else steal it, the act of being so reckless and avoiding confrontation with her seems to show weakness, it’s not like his style…
Bai Chu thought that Wang Xiu would attack through Shen Yu, but he didn’t think that his courage, or technique, was bolder than she expected.
One day into the night, with the cool breeze coming in from the half-closed window, she lay on the soft couch by the window and read the travelogue for a while. As soon as it was lifted, it was held by someone.
The wide palm seemed to be able to completely wrap her hand, and the warm touch slowly spread from the skin of the palm to the heart, and the slightly calloused finger pads gently brushed the back of her hand. With a careless strength.
“Second brother?” Shen Yongzhi, who had not seen him for a long time, suddenly appeared in front of him, Bai Chu was stunned, and sat up subconsciously, “Are you finished?”
Shen Yuezhi placed her other hand on her shoulder to stop her from getting up, and Bai Chu followed his strength to lie down on the soft couch again.
For the loose hair, I only used a plain-colored headband with beaded silk yarn on both sides, and pulled the hair into a bun, so that the hair on both sides would not fall down, and there was no headgear.
Clear water hibiscus, the quality is like heaven.
With a warm smile on his handsome face, he shook hands with her steadily, and answered the question: “Chuchu, I heard that you met Wang Xiuze of the Wang family?”
