In the Orchid Garden, the maids and ladies were silent outside, and Madame Bai was sitting on the kang in the wing room with Bai Yuntang, silent with each other. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

There was a letter on the kang table, and the hairpin on the pale yellow letterhead was extremely beautiful, apparently from the handwriting of her daughter's family.

Bai Yuntang gently rubbed the blue and white glazed tea cup, his brows furrowed.

Mrs. Bai took the letterhead and folded it, and said lightly, "You also know the matter, although it is covered up, but after all, Shuang'er wrote a letter to open her mouth, not to mention anything else, her face in her husband's house, let's take care of it a little." ”

"Do you want us to push our daughter into the fire pit with our own hands just for the sake of her face? You don't know what kind of virtue this son of Prince Shunping is. Bai Yuntang said dissatisfied.

Madame Bai sneered, "Isn't it just ** addiction, how many of you men are guarding their wives for the rest of their lives?"

Bai Yuntang frowned, "What nonsense is it ......" The confidence is insufficient.

"I'm not, I'm just talking about things, the prince is no longer a thing, he is also the heir to the future throne, at least the glory and wealth can't run, what's wrong with marrying for a lifetime without worrying about food and clothing? It's all my daughter, can I still trap her?" Mrs. Bai sneered again.

Bai Yuntang listened, his face was a little bad, "I didn't say that you were wrong, I just thought that the four sons were still young, besides, didn't the Wei family propose to his second son Yifei to us yesterday, I also told you that I wanted to settle the matter of the fourth son, and you also agreed......

Mrs. said annoyedly, "Didn't I just receive Shuang'er's letter in the second half of last day, where did I think there would be such a thing......

"But the Wei family is related to several big businesses in the family...... Bai Yuntang is also unwilling to retreat.

Madam Bai frowned for a long time, and suddenly hesitated, "Or, retire Xiao Wu's family affairs?"

Bai Yuntang's eyebrows narrowed, and he shouted coldly, "How can this work? Don't even think about it, how can my Bai family be the one who rebelled." ”

Madame Bai also knew that she was speechless, and frowned and said nothing.

After a while, Bai Yuntang said, "This is not good, that's not right, you can't let Xiaoliu Xiaoqi get married, right?"

Mrs. Bai was overjoyed, "Why not, although they are still young, they can be married first, what is wrong with the marriage being a few years late." ”

Speaking of which, the women here are all married at the age of sixteen or seventeen, Bai Shihua is fifteen years old, but she is barely marriageable, but Bai Qiyu and Bai Liuyun are only a little more than twelve years old, no matter how you look at it, it is not suitable. You can only decide on the family first, and then get married a few years later. However, ordinary people naturally want to find the right age to marry a daughter-in-law.

Bai Yuntang didn't agree, "No, Xiaoliu and Xiaoqi are too small." ”

Mrs. Bai said, "Whether it is the Wei family or the Shunping Palace, they are rare good families, not to mention anything else, but also think more about the future of the daughters, such a thing is not early." ”

If Bai Qiyu is here and will definitely despise her again, what does it mean to be merciful and ruthless?

A concubine, who is involved in marriage by interests and makes sacrifices for the family, is this still for the sake of her daughter? Even if it is, it is for her own daughter.

Bai Yuntang nodded in agreement, "Let's slow down this matter first, and let's talk about it after Mrs. Tai's birthday." ”

Mrs. Bai had a plan in her heart, so naturally she wouldn't say anything, so she called Mother Wang and told the maid to pay attention to the recent movements of Miss Four, Miss Six and Miss Seven.

And at this time, Bai Qiyu was walking in the yard with Qiushui, and the sun was shining, but it was a warm winter.

Occasionally, a maid passes by and will salute respectfully.

"Qiushui, how high is the wall separating this garden from the outside?" Bai Qiyu suddenly asked.

Qiushui looked around and said, "The walls of the Gaomen compound are generally six feet high, what's the matter, Miss, what do you think?"

That's about two meters, not too tall, Bai Qiyu thought, "Let's walk around the wall." ”

The two of them walked around the perimeter of the garden, Bai Qiyu smiled, no matter how he looked at it, it looked like he was stepping on a point.

The closer I got to the southwest wall, I could faintly hear the sound of talking and footsteps, as if I was approaching an alley. But beside the wall, there are mostly some shrubs, dead grass, and bamboo, etc., and there is nothing to climb with the help of it, and Bai Qiyu can't help but be disappointed.

Qiushui suddenly said, "This place is relatively remote, I haven't been here before, why is there such a big tree in the garden?"

Tree?

Bai Qiyu suddenly became energetic, glanced at Qiushui and looked at her gaze, and sure enough, behind a dense bamboo forest, near the wall, there was a big tree with a thick bowl, saying that it was a big tree, but in fact, it was not a big tree, at best, it had only grown for about six or seven years, it looked like it had grown by itself, the trunk was curved, the branches were messy, and it was obviously uncared for.

Also, it is impossible to take care of every corner of this huge garden.

Bai Qiyu looked at the bare branches, and surprise flashed in his eyes, this is it!

"Qiushui, come and help me. Bai Qiyu said as he pulled the corner of his skirt and walked towards the bamboo forest.

When Qiushui saw it, he couldn't stop it, so he hurriedly looked around and saw that there was no one, so he quickly followed.

Bai Qiyu patted the trunk excitedly, watching the flamboyant branches stretch out near the wall, and couldn't help but rub his hands happily.

"Qiushui, you look at it, I'll go up and have a look first. ”

"Miss, how can this work, it's too dangerous!" Qiushui said anxiously with a frown.

Bai Qiyu smiled, "Don't worry, there will be no problem, I did a lot of things like climbing trees when I was a child!"

As he spoke, he hugged the crooked trunk and climbed up, but fortunately there were many branches, and it didn't take much effort to climb up.

Qiushui is dumbfounded, what does it mean to do too much when you were a child?

Since Miss was six years old, I have been serving by her side, and now I have been serving for more than six years, in addition to playing with my sisters on weekdays, I am reading female rings and practicing female workers in my yard, where have I ever seen Miss do such a thing?

However, even if Qiushui wants to break his head, he will not understand that the childhood Bai Qiyu said was not this childhood, but the childhood when he lived in the original world. Most of the children in the north have a wild personality, climbing trees in the mountains, fishing in the river, catching rabbits and birds, and this kind of thing is as skillful as the ancient women were good at female workers, and there is nothing unusual.

Just when Qiushui was stunned, Bai Qiyu had already climbed to the height of the tree close to the wall, and approached the wall with the branches growing horizontally.

"Miss! Miss!" Qiushui suddenly screamed under the tree in fright when he saw this dangerous action, and he didn't dare to make too much noise, but he was in a hurry.

"Miss, come down quickly, it's too dangerous, Miss......"

Bai Qiyu turned his head and smiled, "Don't worry, if I say it's okay, it's okay." ”

Continued to crawl forward, and soon approached the wall, Bai Qiyu looked out, outside the high wall, there was a quiet alley, and a few pedestrians did not stop to pass through.

This is it!Bai Qiyu said excitedly again.

After the investigation, he turned around and climbed down from the tree again.

Obviously, this body is too delicate and weak, and it has only been a short time since it was already tired and out of breath, it seems that it is time to exercise well, Bai Qiyu sighed while putting down the corners of his skirt, and tidied up his clothes under the service of Qiushui.

"Look, we've found the right place, this is it, and this will be our secret base in the future. Bai Qiyu said with a grin.

Qiu Shui obviously didn't understand the new word that popped up again, but this didn't prevent her from understanding the meaning of what Bai Qiyu said.

"Miss, this is close to South Park...... On weekdays, no one comes, and the place is quite secret, but how can we have so much time to go out, and we don't want to be known by the people in the house......" Qiushui worried.

"Don't worry, your young lady and I will definitely be able to think of a good way. Bai Qiyu clapped his palms and looked at the incomparably beautiful tree again, his heart was full of joy, and he spoke more casually than usual.

Qiushui sneered, "Miss, how can you boast about yourself like this." ”

"Then don't you think I'm telling the truth?" Bai Qiyu teased her as she walked out of the bamboo forest.

Qiushui hurriedly followed, and said with a smile, "Yes, yes, my young lady is the smartest!"

The two walked back to the path in the garden one after another, and then went back in the direction of Yi Tingxuan.

On the way back, the two carefully observed the layout of the garden along the way, and prepared for the official departure.

Yi Tingxuan, as soon as Wang's mother entered the courtyard gate, she saw Qiu Ling sitting at the door with a small bandage embroidered handkerchief, and the door behind her was closed.

Qiu Ling heard the movement and looked up to see that it was Mother Wang, and hurriedly put down the work at hand and stood up, "Mother Wang, why are you here." ”

Mother Wang walked up and looked at the handkerchief in the basket, and said with a smile, "Qiu Ling's craftsmanship is really getting more and more exquisite." ”

Qiuling invited Wang's mother to the side room for tea, and Wang's mother excused herself, "...... I won't sit down, I also came to see if Miss Seven was not there as instructed by my wife, and I didn't know if I was busy making a lot of perfume, and I didn't know if I needed help to do some simple work...... What, isn't Miss Seven in the house?"

Qiu Ling said, "Miss Seven has been mixing incense all morning this morning, and when she was tired, she went for a walk in the garden......

As he was talking, Bai Qiyu walked in from the courtyard gate with Qiushui, and saw Wang's mother and Qiuling standing under the eaves and talking from a distance.

Mother Wang's sharp eyes saw it, so she saluted and said, "Miss Seven, the slave is talking, and you will come back." ”

Qiu Ling opened the door, and Bai Qiyu stepped into the room, "Please sit down Mother Wang, I'm also a little tired, so go to the yard for a walk...... Qiu Ling, tea. ”

Mother Wang half sat on Xiaozha, waved her hand again and again and said with a smile, "Don't bother Miss Seven, it's Mrs. who asked if Miss Seven is busy mixing a lot of incense, and asked the slave to come and see ......."

Bai Qiyu took a sip of tea and said, "Mother Lao is worried, it just so happens that many flowers in the flower room are ready to bloom, I am thinking about mixing a few more new fragrances today, there are a few autumn water to help, but it is also convenient, but there is less time to rest." ”

Wang's mother said, "Do you want the slave to send a few clever girls to help?" ”

"That's not necessary, I'll just ask you when I really need it. Bai Qiyu said politely.

"Miss Seven has something to do, just tell the old slave. Wang's mother laughed again and again.

Bai Qiyu was very emotional, thinking that at the beginning, when he first woke up, this Wang's mother was not like this, but now because she knows how to mix fragrance, she has been favored in front of her wife, and the attitudes of those people before have taken a 180-degree turn, and even her sisters are kind to themselves. People are really fickle, I have to say, these people in this Baifu really know how to judge the situation.

After chatting a few words, Wang's mother went back to Lanjing Garden.
