Pak Bingxiong and Mrs. Pak heard a noise in the house and hurriedly walked out. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
As soon as he lifted the curtain, he saw Bai Xianghuan holding his waist and couldn't get along with his own sister.
Xu Chenghuan glanced back at them, still looking indifferent and silent.
The husband and wife didn't think it was their daughter's fault, her daughter was already strong, and she was careless, but Bai Xianghuan's unpromising appearance really made Bai Bingxiong feel hateful.
He stepped down the steps in a few steps, raised a kick, and kicked Bai Xianghuan to the ground again.
"You can't make a thing, a big old man is like a little girl who will fall down when you touch it, and you still have the face to scream?!"
When Mrs. Bai heard this, she was afraid of arousing her husband's dissatisfaction with her son, so she hurriedly walked down and stopped: "Master, he has fallen, you can spare him for the time being, Xiao Wu, hurry up and help the eldest young master up!"
Seeing that the eldest young master had already jumped away from the moment he rolled down the steps, he reacted, and stepped forward to help Bai Xianghuan in a daze, but was pushed away by Bai Xianghuan.
He is not only annoyed and angry now, he is deeply wronged from the heart.
"Dad, why have you become as eccentric as your mother? This madman is infinitely powerful, if she pushes you, can you stand?"
Bai Bingxiong and Mrs. Bai changed their faces in unison: "Who do you say is crazy?!"
Mrs. Bai poked her finger at Bai Xianghuan's head: "You really deserve to be kicked by your father again! Your own sister, others just talk nonsense, you even talk nonsense? Your sister is already well, where is she crazy?"
Bai Bingxiong was sulking and had nowhere to go, and kicked over again: "You still have the face to say, you refused to teach you to practice martial arts since you were a child, and Lao Tzu was laughed at in the army, and now he actually complains about others' strength, Lao Tzu is a hero, how can you have a turtle son!"
Bai Xianghuan held his waist to avoid the danger, stood firm and raised his head in a huff and was about to say goodbye, but at a glance, he saw that the girl under the eaves was looking at him coldly, and a pair of secluded eyes seemed to be a little sneering.
Bai Xianghuan's blood suddenly rushed to the top of his head, thinking that he heard the gossip between the maid and Xiao Wu last night, the past came to mind, and he didn't care if his father and mother would be more angry, so he shouted at her.
"That's all because of her, if it weren't for her yesterday, how could my mother be humiliated and bullied by that shrew of the Huang Tong family? She is the scourge of our Bai family! If it weren't for her, I would have had a few more younger brothers, and whoever practiced martial arts would not be laughed at again!"
Bai Bingxiong was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look at Mrs. Bai: "What's the matter? Why didn't you tell me yesterday?"
No wonder something was wrong when I looked at her yesterday, it turned out that she was bullied?
When Mrs. Bai heard her son say so much, she hated the roots of her teeth and pointed at her son and gritted her teeth: "What nonsense are you talking about, where did you come from? What nonsense are you talking about?!"
Xu Chenghuan, who had been standing by and watching, frowned slightly, could it be that there was something hidden?
From the first time Bai Xianghuan appeared, she felt very weird.
Even if the original Bai Huanniang was a madman, Bai Xianghuan's attitude as a brother was particularly excessive.
There is no pity, no maintenance that a brother should have, only almost undisguised disgust and cold eyes.
At present, the Bai family is still a very simple family, these days, Xu Chenghuan has basically figured out the temperament of the family, the population is small, and there is no concubine room to make people feel troubled, Bai Bingxiong and his wife's personalities are also generous and hearty, they are not cold-blooded and mean people, and they care about her sincerely, without pretense, but how can they raise such an outlier as Bai Xianghuan?
But listening to what Bai Xianghuan said at this moment, she understood the first half of the sentence, but the second half of the sentence was very interesting.
In the courtyard, Bai Bingxiong's face didn't know whether he was angry or ashamed, he turned red, looked at his wife who was still trying to cover up his past, and asked in a rough voice: "What the hell is going on? Why don't you tell that mother-in-law if you can't get along with you? I'll go to Huang's house to ask for an understanding!"
Bai Bingxiong is usually angry when dealing with those sub-civil officials, but he is a big man, and if he wants to mix in the officialdom, he naturally has to be able to be high and low, but his wife is a woman's family, why should she always suffer such a bird anger if she has no grudges and no hatred against others? If she is angry with her like this, she has to swallow it in her stomach, then what face will she have to face her wife and children in the future?
Mrs. Bai hurriedly grabbed him and persuaded him bitterly: "It's all over, why bother to make trouble for this anymore? As long as Huan Niang is well, who cares what does it say?"
"My wife and daughter are humiliated, I want to swallow my anger and not seek justice for you, am I still a gentleman?"
Bai Bingxiong stubbornly broke away from Mrs. Bai's blockade and strode out of the door.
Mrs. Bai chased a few steps, but seeing that she couldn't catch up, she turned around and landed on Bai Xianghuan's face with two ear scrapers.
"You troublemaker, your father hasn't eaten a mouthful of hot rice when he comes back, and you're here to make trouble, how can I have a son like you! Get out!"
Bai Xianghuan covered his face and couldn't say anything.
He overheard yesterday's events last night, and he held his anger all night, and then he made a fuss, but he was stunned by his mother's two slaps, and soon realized the severity.
When my father goes, I don't know what kind of trouble he is going to make with the Huang family, if he gets married, he will be tied up everywhere in the future, what will he do?
Bai Xianghuan's heart suddenly swelled with all kinds of feelings, and when he saw that his mother's tears of anger came out, he had to hurriedly make amends: "Mother, my son is wrong...... Don't be angry, I'll go and find my father back!"
After speaking, he put on the five finger prints on his face, turned around and strode out of the courtyard gate, and ran towards the gate.
Mrs. Bai was angry and worried, wiped a few handfuls of tears and remembered that her daughter was still freezing under the eaves, and she didn't know if this noise scared her.
At the moment, she didn't care about her husband and son, so she hurriedly walked back and took her daughter's hand: "Huanniang, don't be afraid, whatever they do, go into the house with your mother!"
Mrs. Bai also froze for a while in the cold wind of the early morning, and cried again, at this moment her nose and eyes were red, Xu Chenghuan took a handkerchief and gently wiped her.
This thoughtfulness made Mrs. Bai burst into tears and laughed instantly, and pulled her daughter into the warm room.
She ordered her daughter to be brought hot tea, put her on the couch, covered her with a thin quilt, and then went out again, and hurriedly ordered her servants to find out the news.
Xu Chenghuan held the hot teacup, leaned on the warm couch, thought about it, and stretched out his hand to summon Xiaoqing, who was staying in the room.
"Did I hurt my wife when I didn't get better?"
According to Bai Xianghuan's words, she could only make this inference.
Xiaoqing's expression was a little hesitant: "This, the slave maid can't say it, and the wife has told me not to mention it." ”
Don't mention it?
Xu Chenghuan nodded, this simple girl, isn't this everything?
She took a sip of hot tea and continued to ask, "Was my wife pregnant at that time?"
"This ...... Miss, the slave really can't say anything!" Xiaoqing was still shaking her head.
Xu Chenghuan nodded: "That's it, I won't force you, if you don't say it, you won't say it." ”
Xiaoqing walked away tremblingly, and Xu Chenghuan waved at the spring greeting beside him.
"You go and ask what happened before. ”
Yingchun, that is, Xiaohong in the past, has only been in the Bai family for more than three years, and she is not clear about the previous things, but Miss has a life, she still agreed without saying a word, she is now Miss's person, and naturally Miss Says what she says.
Yingchun walked out of the courtyard and went around the kitchen where he used to be on an errand.
The two middle-aged servants under the kitchen were busy making breakfast, and they all greeted her in surprise when they saw her coming: "Xiaohong is here...... By the way, I heard that you have changed your name to Yingchun now? Congratulations girl!"
is the big girl next to the eldest lady, and among the subordinates, she can be called a "girl".
With a sweet smile on Yingchun's round face, he walked over and gossiped with them.
Xu Chenghuan finished drinking a cup of tea, and came back to welcome spring.
She nodded, this maid is not slow.
"It is said that ten years ago, my wife was pregnant with a child, but she fell in the side hospital and did not save it, and since then, there has been no hope for the heir. ”
Yingchun attached to the master's ear and said softly.
Xu Chenghuan only felt a sudden pain in her heart, and a feeling that did not belong to her arose spontaneously.
Heirs, in this world, the most important thing for a woman to live in the world.
It was as if countless fragments flashed through my mind, the screams of the little girl, the painful moans of the woman, one after another.
The cup in Xu Chenghuan's hand fell to the ground, and he lay on the couch covering his heart and gasped.
Flustered, guilty, overwhelmed......
This is what remains in Bai Huanniang's chaotic memories back then, right?
