The liveliness of this day, when the hustle and bustle finally dissipated, after the guests of the White Mansion said goodbye one by one, the White Mansion was very chaotic, cups, plates and bowls, leftover feasts, and the slaves began to clean up and sweep, busy in and out. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The Bai Qiyu sisters had dinner in the backyard and rested for a long time, and the Bai Mansion returned to normal, and Bai Yuanchun and Bai Shuangyu mentioned that it was time to go back.

Because Bai Yuanchun was pregnant, Bai Qiyu was not good to stay, and several people accompanied Bai Yuanchun and Bai Shuangyu to Graceland to say goodbye to Bai Yuntang and his wife. The maids and mothers-in-law who came and went were busy in an orderly manner, and when they saw the sisters, they stopped their work and saluted respectfully.

I don't know if it's Bai Qiyu's illusion, I always feel that Bai March is a little preoccupied, although she has been talking and laughing, but the sensitive Bai Qiyu still noticed some hidden emotions, but it's not good to ask rashly, not to mention that she is not suitable to ask.

When he arrived at Graceland, he saw Bai Yuntang and his wife at the banquet, Bai Qiyu couldn't help but sigh in his heart every time he saw this cheap father, and he didn't know if he had a skill in staying in his face? This person in his forties looks like he is in his thirties, and compared with Mrs. Bai, he looks several years younger.

Mrs. Bai had already freshened up, changed into homely clothes, and was a little tired on the kang, leaning on a pillow behind her back, and when she saw the sisters, she sat up with a strong spirit. didn't even exempt Bai Yuanchun from squatting and saluting, and when she finished the salute, she ordered the maid to wait for her to sit down, Bai Qiyu was also a little puzzled when she saw this, and she didn't know what kind of temperament Mrs. Bai was playing.

Bai Liuyun walked to Mrs. Bai's side with a smile and said, "There are many things in the house these days, my mother has worked hard, and I have been busy all day today, my mother must be very tired, my daughter will pinch your shoulder." ”

"You are a well-behaved ......" Madame Bai nodded slowly, smiled and turned slightly, and put on a comfortable posture for Bai Liuyun to pinch her shoulder.

Bai Yuanchun still said lightly, "I've been out for most of the day today, it's time to go back to the house, I came to say to my mother, my mother has worked too hard these days, and I must pay attention to my body is ......" said and turned to Bai Yuntang, who was silently drinking tea on the side, "It's rare for my father to come to Beijing, so let's stay a few more days, and I can accompany my mother." ”

Bai Yuntang nodded and said, "Now that the business in Tongzhou has stabilized, I plan to stay a few more days, and by the way, I will take a good look at the business in the capital." ”

Bai Shuangyu also said, "Sister Yun won't see me for a day, I'm afraid I'm going to make trouble......"

Everyone chattered a few words, Bai Qiyu and a few people sent Bai Yuanchun and Bai Shuangyu to the weeping flower door, Mrs. Bai lazily waved her hand and went to the inner room to rest, Bai Yuntang walked out of the backyard with a few people and went to the study.

Outside the second gate, the carriages of the General's Mansion and the Ding Mansion were already waiting there, Bai Yuanchun held Bai Yueyue's hand and said, "It's rare to meet the third sister, I'm really happy, after the fourth sister returns to the door, I will let Mother Wang come to pick you up and go to the house to play." She pinched Bai Qiyu's hand holding her arm again, and the two looked very tacit.

Bai Shuangyu also said, "The third sister has to stay a few more days, let Chen Haoxiang accompany you to have a good walk in the capital......

The carriage left, Bai Qiyu and the three of them went back to the backyard and broke up in the corridor, but Bai March went to Evian Pavilion with Bai Qiyu, "I have long heard that the fragrance made by the seventh sister is very special, I haven't seen it yet." ”

Bai Qiyu was a little surprised, but still smiled and said, "It's just a little skill, my father and the third brother-in-law are in the study, presumably they are going to have dinner in the outer courtyard, and the third sister is just going to play with me for some time." ”

There are also some maids in Evian Pavilion who have been assigned to work in the front yard, and at this time, except for a few big maids in Qiushui, there are not many people, and they seem to be very quiet.

Bai March raised her eyes and looked around for a long time before she sighed, "It's still the same here...... When the eldest sister got married, I came to Beijing with my mother once, and I lived in this Evian Pavilion at that time, the eldest sister lived in Fangxueju, and the second sister lived in Huayun Building......"

Bai Qiyu was slightly surprised, "It turns out that the third sister has lived here for some time, I have always liked to be quiet, so my mother pointed out this courtyard to me...... When I came, I saw that the grass and trees in this garden were distributed, the wood and stone rockeries were wrong, and there was Cui Wei Xiu Zhu, I felt very elegant, and I liked it at a glance. ”

A few words pulled Bai Yue out of his bosom, and said with a slight smile, "I didn't think much about it, but I just played with the flowers and plants in my spare time, but unfortunately some maids and women couldn't take care of it, and soon after I left, it was abandoned a lot." ”

The sun is gone, there are light clouds on the horizon, Bai March looked up slightly, "Why don't ......you go to the terrace of the attic to sit?

Bai Qiyu instructed the maid to serve the willow bud tea, and said, "Compared to the flower tea, I don't know if the third sister likes the willow bud tea?" I picked it when I was free the month before, if the third sister likes it, let the autumn water wrap some for you to take back to drink--there is also fragrant dew powder, there are many categories, the third sister will pick up some of her favorite ...... for a while."

The two chatted for a few words, and Bai Yue suddenly said, "I listen to my father, Tongzhou's business has become stable, do you know what business my father is doing?"

Bai Qiyu said truthfully, "We haven't had a chance to contact the business affairs in the house, so naturally we don't know this, my father takes care of everything by himself, and he has always made his own ideas, maybe my mother will know something." ”

"Also, how do you know these things......" Bai Yue smiled, "I'm just a little worried......"

After listening to Bai March for a long time, Bai Qiyu understood a little, it turned out that Bai Yuntang had talked to Chen Zhaoxiang about some business things, and wanted Chen Zhaoxiang to also operate some coastal trade, Chen Zhaoxiang did not agree immediately, but went back and talked to Bai March about his worries, because the boiling sea ban in the court these days has made many people excited and worried...... More than 30 years ago, there was a continuous invasion of the Japanese along the coast, the first emperor swept away most of the Japanese army on the sea, in order to prevent the war from affecting the people again, the emperor ignored the opposition of many courtiers, and forced the implementation of the sea ban, so far for more than 30 years, maritime trade is expressly prohibited, but there are many people staring at this piece of fat and do not give up, there is no foreign enemy intrusion along the coast, but there is the control and suppression of pirate gangs, through some disgraceful ways, commerce and trade are still prosperous, and it has become a place where many businessmen flock to it, some people get rich because of this, some people go bankrupt, and some people die because of this...... When the former emperor was alive, he had always had a headache at this time, and there was no better way to solve it than to lift the sea ban, but how could the former emperor lose face by himself? The matter has been delayed...... Now that the call for the lifting of the sea ban has been set off again, this time it is more intense than ever, and I think the Holy One will have a new idea......

What Bai March's and Chen Zhaoxiang mean is that the holy will is unclear and the coastal is in turmoil, and in this chaotic situation, try not to rush into it, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.

Bai Qiyu thinks it is true, Haimao is a big fat meat that everyone is greedy for, the emperor's words can make countless people grab their heads, some people gain benefits, some people lose interests, it will be a scuffle, it is better not to mix rashly, but what does his cheap dad think?

Until after dinner, when Bai March left, Bai Qiyu was still thinking about this problem, not worrying about anything, but trying to figure out what Bai Yuntang's plans were, and he had to make some preparations in advance...... Bai Qiyu understood early on that in this completely unfamiliar world, the only thing he could entrust was himself.
