Yi Tingxuan, Bai Qiyu sat cross-legged on the kang, reading an idle book, holding his chin with his left hand, looking lazy and distracted. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Mother Wang, why do you have to come here in person?" Qiu Ju's voice outside interrupted Bai Qiyu's thoughts.

Qiushui went to lift the curtain, "Mother Wang is here." ”

Bai Qiyu invited her to sit down, and ordered the maid to serve tea.

Mother Wang said falsely, "Miss Seven, the slave and maid will not sit, it is the lady who ordered the slave and maid to come over and admonish, saying that the master is almost Shen Zheng back, so that you can dress up and go to the Orchid Garden at that time, and set up a family banquet at night." ”

Bai Qiyu smiled, "Speaking of which, I haven't seen my father for a long time, so I'll come over a little earlier than usual." ”

The slave and maid retired first, and had to tell Miss Eight and Miss Nine. Mother Wang said with a slight bow.

"There is Lao Wang's mother, Qiushui, send me Wang's mother. Bai Qiyu got up and said.

Wang's mother smiled, "No trouble." And he withdrew.

Qiushui sent her all the way to the gate of the courtyard, and when she saw her stepping on the path to the Lotus Wind Garden, he turned around and went back to the courtyard.

went back to the house and told Bai Qiyu, "Mother Wang has gone to the Lotus Wind Garden." ”

The Lotus Garden is the residence of the eighth lady, Bai Baozhu.

Bai Qiyu sighed lightly, "Qiushui, Master Bai... Uh, what kind of person is my dad?"

Qiushui was stunned for a moment, and hesitated, "Miss......"

How can a subordinate casually talk about the master's affairs?

Bai Qiyu waved his little hand, "Say it, you also know that after I woke up from an illness, I forgot many things, and I don't even remember what my father Bai looked like......

And he said, "Tell me now, lest I see that I do not know how to speak and act." ”

Qiushui had no choice but to say, "Speaking of which, the lord does business abroad all the year round, and he will stay in the house for a period of time during the New Year's Festival, and from a distance, he is a very elegant and easy person to get along with, and he is also very kind to the ladies in the house......

This statement is too general, and it is not detailed, Bai Qiyu sighed in his heart, how can the maids in each room and courtyard have any chance to contact the male owner of the Bai Mansion, not to mention that the male owner is not in the mansion all the year round.

Forget it, let's go and meet him, no matter what kind of person he is, he is his daughter now, and it is always not wrong to follow his sisters.

Thinking about it, my heart is calm.

"Qiushui, go to the pavilion to find a jade bottle, and then bring the fragrance dew, I will divide all the newly mixed fragrance, and I will send one to my mother later to take a look." ”

After a nap in the afternoon, I got up and dressed up by Qiu Ling, a seashell purple carved silk jacket with apricot blossom white embroidered purple Hunan skirt, combed with a hanging bun, decorated with jade cloisonné beads, looking simple and generous.

Qiushui took a cloak and tied it to her, handed her a hand stove, and then went out together.

Bai Qiyu walked in front with a hand stove, Qiushui followed by his side, and not far from the door of the hospital, he saw the figures of Bai Liuyun and Bai Baozhu on the corridor.

Bai Qiyu didn't rush over, still walking unhurriedly.

Skirting the corridor, there were footsteps behind him, "Seventh sister." ”

It is Miss Jiu's voice Bai Jiuxiang, light and soft, Bai Qiyu can't help but smile, Xiao Jiu is the most cordial of all the sisters, not only is she the youngest, but her mind is also very simple and pure.

Bai Qiyu stopped and waited sideways for her, and said with a smile, "Ninth sister, you are here too." ”

Bai Jiuxiang, who was wearing a red carved silk cloak, trotted over, and her little face was red and cute.

"Seventh sister, I thought you had already gone to your mother's place. Bai Jiuxiang smiled with her little face, and naturally reached out to shake Bai Qiyu's hand.

Bai Qiyu handed the hand stove to Qiushui and pulled Bai Jiuxiang to go with him.

Bai Qiyu smiled, "The scenery in this garden, the four seasons are different, I never get tired of seeing it, I always walk slowly." ”

"It's winter, and there is no snow, so many trees are bare, what is there to see. The little Bai Jiuxiang looked around and said with a flat mouth.

Bai Qiyu smiled and didn't say much, how could a child think so much.

I remembered the winter in the north before, and I didn't feel monotonous at all, but I had a snowball fight, skiing, and ice skating with my classmates and friends. Now it's long gone.

When I arrived at the Orchid Garden, I saw from a distance that the maids and maids along the way were all happy, and it seemed that Master Bai was indeed coming back soon.

Wen Ying at the door saw Bai Qiyu and Bai Jiuxiang coming together, so she greeted her with a smile, "Miss Seven, Miss Nine, come in, several young ladies have arrived, and Mrs. said that when they are all together, they will go to the gate to greet them." ”

After a moment's hesitation, he said, "A few aunts are also there." ”

Bai Qiyu and Bai Liuyun were born to Aunt Lan and are twins of the same mother. But according to the observation of getting along for so long, this sister is actually not close to her at all, not only her, but several other sisters and sisters, except for the innocent Xiao Jiu, and the indifferent fifth sister Bai Wutong, the rest of the sisters, including the three sisters who have come out of the cabinet, are all at odds with each other.

Among the aunts, Aunt Lan is extremely weak, and she has always looked at her nose and nose, and she doesn't care about anything.

Since coming to this body and waking up, in those days of cultivation, I understand that it is very likely that I will not be able to go back, and Bai Qiyu has been working hard to get used to and adapt.

And gradually figured out the complex relationship in Baifu, and somewhat understood what kind of way to get along with different people.

Therefore, for several aunts, including the real Bai Qiyu and her biological mother, Bai Qiyu treated it indifferently like other sisters.

Of course, she is not facing her own mother, so she doesn't have to worry about it at all, and Mrs. Bai has never asked a few aunts to serve by her side, at most, please be safe, and have a lively time together during the New Year's holidays, so there are not many people to meet, but for Wen Ying's kind reminder, Bai Qiyu still glanced at her gratefully.

Bai Qiyu smiled faintly and nodded at her, "Thank you, sister." ”

Wen Ying smiled slightly and lowered her head to lift the curtain, and Bai Qiyu and Bai Jiuxiang entered the house.

After saluting, Madame Bai straightened her clothes and said, "Your father is coming back soon, let's go and meet it together." ”

Just when a maid came to say that Master Bai was still half an hour away, Mrs. Bai took her six daughters and a few aunts and set off to the gate of the front yard.

Went around the wall and through the corridor, through the hanging flower gate, and then through the second gate, walked for more than a quarter of an hour before arriving at the gate, the housekeeper with some stewards in the house was already waiting at the door, and when they saw Mrs. Bai and her party, they saluted.

Bai Qiyu gathered his cloak, still feeling the cold wind at the door, seeing that everyone else was also looking around with a hand stove, obviously rarely stepping out of the door.

The gate of the White Mansion is vermilion, with painted carved door beams, and the pillars are also hugging thick, which looks extraordinary, and has the atmosphere of a rich family.

From waking up to the present, Bai Qiyu has never been out of the second gate, so he doesn't know what it's like outside, at this time, he can't help but look at it carefully, there are few people on the street in winter, and this is Xiangyun Hutong, where rich and noble people live, and it is even more silent at this time.

After waiting for another quarter of an hour, I saw several carriages coming in the distance.

Madame Bai took two steps forward excitedly, noticed the gaffe again, and stood still, but her expression revealed the joy in her heart.

The carriage stopped in front of the White Mansion with a purr, and when the curtain was lifted, a middle-aged man wearing a royal blue jacket appeared in Bai Qiyu's sight.

Madame Bai immediately greeted her and saluted happily, "Master, you are back." ”

The man nodded with a smile on his face, looked at the saluted daughters and said, "It's so cold outside and you're still waiting here, don't freeze." ”

Bai Qiyu looked at him carefully, thinking that this man was the owner of Baifu, his so-called father, and he looked gentle and elegant.

Everyone went to the main hall with Bai Laiye and sat down in a different order.

Only then did several young ladies come forward to salute.

Bai Qiyu stepped forward to salute, and Bai Yuntang, that is, Master Bai, looked at the sisters and said with a smile, "It's all grown so big in a blink of an eye...... Your mother said that you had an illness in the spring, but now you are getting better?"

"Father Lao is worried, and he is already very good. ”

Madame Bai said angrily, "You only stay at home for a few days a year, don't say you don't know the children, the children don't know you." ”

Bai Yuntang was a little more ashamed, "In a blink of an eye, the youngest Xiao Jiu is so tall, and it has been hard for you for so many years, but fortunately, the children are still angry because of you, who are mothers." The tone was quite emotional.

Listening to these thoughtful words, Mrs. Bai also looked excited, and the master still remembered his own good.

Bai Qiyu said, "Mother, I have already mixed the cold snow red plum that I picked with my sisters a few days ago, and I happened to pack a jade bottle today, so I brought it over to my mother to see if it can still be used." ”

Old Man Bai said curiously, "You still know how to make fragrances?"

Mrs. Bai's eyes flashed slightly when she heard this, and then she smiled, "The other sisters are all good at piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, female workers and needles, etc., but Xiao Qi is only interested in perfumery, and he does it very well, but he is also very smart, and the fragrant lotus and jade dew for Yuan Chun have also been appreciated by the queen." ”

He looked at Bai Qiyu again and said, "Take it, it just so happens that your father and sisters are here today, so let's take a look at your new Hanmei Yulu, and I will have to send some to your eldest sister when the time comes." “

Bai Qiyu called Qiushui to bring in the jade bottle.

It is a round belly sheep fat jade bottle about five inches tall and slender neck, Mrs. Bai nodded, Bai Qiyu opened the jade bottle, and suddenly, a quiet and elegant fragrance floated in the room, such as a clear spring, such as thin snow, there is a refreshing feeling, which makes people feel very good.

"It's so fragrant, it's really fragrant!" Bai Yuntang closed his eyes and sniffed, and couldn't help nodding his head in praise.

Bai Shihua and Bai Liuyun's surprised expressions had a hint of jealousy, and when they heard Bai Yuntang's praise, their faces were a little surprised.

Bai Qiyu said happily, "Thank you for your father's compliment." ”

Madame Bai stretched out her hand to take the jade bottle, turned it around her fingertips, looked at Bai Yuntang and said, "What's the matter?"

"Don't say anything else, I've been traveling from south to north for so many years, and it's the first time I've smelled such a good fragrance, lush but not strong, clear but not light, Xiao Qi, where did you learn so much?" Bai Yuntang said with a kind smile.

"My daughter just had nothing to do, read some books, and had to be guided by her mother, so she learned to make perfumes. ”

At the same time as Bai Qiyu explained, Mrs. Bai also complimented her, otherwise, if she took it alone, it would definitely cause her unhappiness, and once the tiger was powerful, she would not be so good at that time.

These days, Bai Qiyu can also be regarded as seeing clearly, her mother-in-law treats all her daughters except for her two own daughters with a sweet face, and her exquisite acting skills are definitely at the level of an Oscar-winning actress, so Bai Qiyu has long understood that she can't compete with her, at least for the time being, she can't provoke her.

When Mrs. Bai heard this, her eyes flashed with satisfaction, and she said with a smile, "As long as your little mouth is sweet, you are sensible, and where is my credit." ”

Bai Qiyu smiled coquettishly, "Mother, if it weren't for your hard teaching, how would my daughter be sensible, and where would she know what to learn, let alone perfume, of course it is the mother's credit." ”

Bai Yuntang nodded, "Your mother has worked hard at home for so many years, you have to honor your mother more." ”

All the sisters replied in unison, "Yes, listen to my father's teachings." ”
