Chapter 122: Destiny should be autonomous
Bai Yuxi dozed off in the carriage, because he got up late and packed up for a long time, it was almost noon when the carriage arrived at Baifu.
Bai Yuxi gave the old lady a salute, and was called by Bai Yi to his yard for lunch, and there was Aunt Liu, who was pregnant with a child, at the dinner table, and when she saw Bai Yuxi coming, she hurriedly called her to sit down beside her.
Bai Yi also smiled and nodded, looked at her appearance and said straightly: "My daughter has grown up, and this appearance is getting better and better." ”
These words made Bai Yuxi stunned, the cheap dad was suppressed by the emperor in the court, and his brain was a little bad, and now he suddenly praised his appearance, and the idea of the cheap dad was unpredictable.
She lifted her skirt and sat next to Aunt Liu, and responded with a smile: "Daddy has won the award, I don't know why Daddy asked his daughter to go back to the house this time?"
She likes to go straight, and don't procrastinate if she can solve it simply, and who knows what the hell will become when she drags it out.
The mutual temptation of the father and daughter last time had already made the father-daughter relationship a little stiff, and there was no need for another useless temptation.
Aunt Liu next to her smiled for three points, alert as she felt that Bai Yuxi's tone was wrong.
Bai Yi was not surprised or dissatisfied, and said with a smile: "As a father, I haven't seen my daughter for many days, and I want to call you home to have a meal and talk about something." ”
The movements of his hands did not stop, and he put the vegetables into Aunt Liu's bowl, looking like an elegant person.
Aunt Liu smiled at him, and said to Bai Yuxi: "What your father said is that I miss Yuxi very much after not seeing me for many days. ”
Bai Yuxi's eyes flashed over Aunt Liu's face, and she saw that the smile on her face was not real, and turned her eyes to look at the father sitting opposite and said: "Thank you father and Aunt Liu for remembering, if your father has something important, you might as well say it bluntly, and the daughter will do her best to help her father." ”
Bai Yi put down his chopsticks and sighed and said: "You are very smart, your father does have something to ask for help with you, knowing that you are a divine doctor, most of the victims who are now resettled from the northern suburbs are sick, and they have been given anti-wind and cold medicine, and they have invited the imperial doctor to treat them, but no one can suppress the illness of those people, and now the victims in the northern suburbs are mourning." ”
I didn't expect Bai Yi to tell her such a thing for the country and the people, and thought that he was planning something, because he was too one-sided.
"Daddy, do you know what the symptoms are when they are sick?" Bai Yuxi then asked, it is the duty of a doctor to save people.
Bai Yi replied: "First of all, I coughed constantly, and my face turned red, but the symptoms of wind chill and fever are quite similar, and I can't tell the specifics of a layman." ”
"After dinner, I'll go to the northern suburbs. Bai Yuxi replied, it is not surprising that those victims who lack food and clothing will get sick in this cold weather, but they will also fall ill on a large scale, unless the residence arranged for them by the court officials is too poor.
"There's no need to be in such a hurry, tomorrow is the day of the prince's wedding, and you have to follow your mother to the prince's wedding banquet, and then go after the wedding banquet. Bai Yidao.
"Human life is greater than heaven, and it doesn't matter to my daughter whether she attends the prince's wedding banquet or not. Bai Yuxi's eyes were firm.
"Now there are people watching over there, and no one will die, but it will be a day at night, and now the northern suburbs are under martial law by the emperor, and no one can enter or exit without the emperor's order, and if you want to go in, you have to wait for your father to get the pass token. Bai Yi continued.
It's a good thing for his daughter to have an opinion, but it's not a good thing to be too sharp and strong, he wants to save the people of Li, if Yuxi really has the ability to cure their diseases, then let his daughter go to the disaster victims to treat the disease and save people, he doesn't think there is anything wrong.
"Martial law?are you suspecting that they have the plague?" Bai Yuxi said in surprise, with some compassion in his eyes, once the plague spreads, if the right medicine cannot be developed in time, many people will die.
She wanted to go and see it as soon as possible, but according to her father's words, she couldn't enter without a token, and the emperor even restricted her father from entering the northern suburbs.
Bai Yi nodded: "As soon as the prince's wedding banquet is over tomorrow, I will get the token to you, and send someone to escort you to the northern suburbs to take a look, if you can't do anything, leave as soon as possible, if you can be cured, you have to be careful, you still have to take care of your body." ”
She felt Bai Yi's concern and responded, "Thank you for your father's concern." ”
She didn't take a bite of the food on the table, and she noticed that her father seemed to have something to say, and looking at his eyes, what happened next was the main reason for calling her back to the house this time.
Aunt Liu looked at the father and daughter but didn't say anything, and felt that the atmosphere was awkward, so she wanted to soothe the atmosphere, so she joked: "Yuxi is getting more and more standard, but I don't know which son's son will be cheaper in the future, Yuxi can have someone she likes now?"
She didn't know that this was exactly what Bai Yi wanted to ask.
"Does Yuxi have someone you like?" Bai Yi smiled.
Bai Yuxi's eyes swept across the green jade dishes and chopsticks on the table, it seemed that the old father wanted to tell her about his family.
Could it be that he has already taken out his marriage to make a deal with so-and-so, now let's test whether she agrees.
Bai Yuxi nodded: "Yes, my father won't do anything to beat the mandarin ducks, so that his daughter will be sad, right?"
Say it directly, hoping to block back Daddy's next words.
Bai Yi asked: "I don't know which family's son? If you are a good person, let your grandmother do Zhang Luo for you." ”
"The fifth son of the Shangguan family, the name is in the sky and the moon, and now he is the prince of Dachen Guoyin, I don't know if my father thinks this Shangguan son can still be my husband?"
Bai Yuxi had a light smile on her face, but her eyes were calm, and she sat upright and tilted her neck slightly to look at her father, who didn't know what he was thinking.
Bai Yi frowned: "Why don't he marry?"
"If he doesn't marry, his daughter only has one heart, so she can only pretend to be one person. She decided that a person would never change.
Bai Yi looked at her in a daze, saw the Shen family through her face, and remembered the Shen family's smile.
"Who is Daddy talking to about his daughter's marriage?" is a lifelong event, so he has to take the initiative to ask which one wants to marry her.
Bai Yi put away his recollections: "King Qin came yesterday and asked to marry you as a side concubine. ”
"For the side concubine, my father also agreed?" her tone was light, but her eyes were full of coldness.
"If you agree, you won't come to ask you, because my father has a last resort, and I also want to reject King Qin. Bai Yi didn't feel that what he was doing was wrong, on the contrary, he thought that there was probably no father in the world who knew how to care about his daughter's thoughts better than him.
Bai Yuxi also understands that in this era, the marriage of children can be decided by their parents with a few words, and some girls probably wait until the day they get married to know who they want to marry.
She was already much luckier than ordinary people, at least this father did not agree to King Qin's proposal on the spot, and did not let her see King Qin's dowry in the courtyard when she came back.
She couldn't blame Bai Yi, and smiled slightly: "Does my father want his life to be manipulated by others?"
"Your own destiny naturally has to be in your own hands, and it is better to be manipulated than to live. Bai Yi replied with certainty.
"It's the same with my daughter, I make my own decisions, my husband should be what I like, and everyone else stands aside. ”
Bai Yuxi got up from her seat after speaking, if she was still there, I was afraid that the atmosphere would become more and more stagnant.
Bai Yi looked at her departing back, poured a glass of wine with a smile, and drank it all in one gulp: "It is said that the tiger father has no dogs, and the old man's son is not bad, but the daughter wins." ”
