For two days, Bai Bingxiong did not show up again. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Mrs. Bai was in a hurry, and the matter of going to Feng Tongzhi's house to thank her was also put aside, and she waited for news at home every day.
Although Xu Chenghuan is also worried, she is more worried about whether things can go as smoothly as expected, as for Bai Bingxiong's safety, she can't tell whether she is too confident in Bai Bingxiong, or because she is not from the Bai family inside, in general, she is not as worried and anxious as Mrs. Bai.
She took two well-behaved and obedient maids, in addition to comforting and accompanying Mrs. Bai, what should she do, taking advantage of Bai Xianghuan to go to the county school to study, she turned over his study in a grand manner, and openly endorsed the name of a genius, and memorized one book after another. Although the collection of books in Bai Xianghuan's study seems to be barren to her critical eyes, there are still must-read classics that a reader should have, so that she doesn't have to worry about being seen through anything in the future.
In the afternoon, after Mrs. Bai couldn't hold on to go to a nap, Xu Chenghuan went to Bai Xianghuan's study again.
Yingchun and Shao Hui were specially approved to enter the study of the eldest young master, looking up at the shelves full of books, the nose was filled with the smell of ink, and the two maids who didn't know one big character were quite excited, and couldn't help but straighten their waists, standing upright, and their solemn and respectful expressions were comparable to worshipping their ancestors in their own homes when they were not sold. Even in their hearts, their ancestors were still not as valuable as the scholars - their poor families were illiterate!
Xu Chenghuan didn't care about the two cramped and nervous maids, and picked them up from the bookshelves one by one, and didn't pick out a book that he hadn't read.
She sat down at her desk bored, picking up a few books on the desk and flipping them through.
The first book, normally, is a "Zuo Chuan", and the second book, which can also be a "Mencius", but by the third book, something is wrong.
Xu Chenghuan looked at the book in his hand dumbfounded, and the two big characters "Analects" were clearly written on the cover, but the content inside was actually - Bai Xianghuan is shameless!
However, someone who slandered Bai Xianghuan shamelessly on the side had his eyes shining, and he never put down the book in his hand.
Why, because this is a book that Xiao Shaoyun strictly forbids her to read, it is said to be inappropriate for children, and the plot is sluggish and filthy - "The Legend of Yingying"!
When she went to her grandmother's house with her mother, Mrs. Wei Beihou, to celebrate the 60th birthday of her grandmother, Mrs. Zhongyi, she invited the troupe to sing a play, called "The Story of the West Chamber".
The flowers fall and the water flows red, there are thousands of sorrows, and there is no word to complain about the east wind.
The gorgeous and tactful lyrics of the play, the obsessive Zhang Sheng and Yingying, made her very intoxicated, and later in the boudoir, I heard the two daughters of Liang Guogong's family secretly discuss the origin of the play, which is said to be a book called "The Legend of Yingying".
She tried her best to secretly buy a notebook several times under curiosity, but she was either caught by Xiao Shaoyun, or she was sued by Xu Chengyi, a sister who was specifically against her, in front of her father and brother, causing her to read it seriously even though she was thinking about it.
Now this book appeared in front of her unexpectedly, it is really providence!
Xu Chenghuan's face only turned red for a while, and then he looked at it in accordance with the will of heaven, lying on the desk with relish, his mouth was fragrant, and he was fascinated.
At this glance, I saw the sun go down.
The two maids stood a little sore, but it was amazing that they could enter the study, no matter how hard they worked, they didn't dare to disturb their young lady reading the sage book, and they didn't know that their young lady had already forgotten them when she was fascinated by reading the book.
So when Bai Xianghuan stepped into the study, when he saw the three women who occupied his own study, he really thought that he was going the wrong way in an instant, and after reacting, he was almost smoking, how could Bai Huanniang, a madman, deserve to abuse his study? !
"Bai Huanniang, you dare to enter my study without permission, you get out of here immediately!"
Xu Chenghuan was looking energetic, and was interrupted, and glared at him angrily with unhappy eyebrows, only to find that the master had returned.
Regarding Bai Xianghuan's bad attitude, although she knew that the once crazy and stupid Bai Huanniang had caused Bai Li's family to lose her fertility, which made Bai Xianghuan the only male in the Bai family under great pressure, this did not mean that she had to tolerate this tsundere man who did not care for her sister.
Xu Chenghuan leaned back comfortably in the chair, stretched his waist slowly, and then picked up the book in his hand and raised it: "Bai Xianghuan, do you think that it is my diligent and studious mistake that I made, or is it a big mistake for you to defile the sage book with a notebook?"
Bai Xianghuan stared at it and found that this unpopular sister actually discovered his private affairs, grabbed his pigtails, and his handsome face suddenly turned red pig liver color, this shameless madman who rummaged through his things indiscriminately!
"Bai Huanniang, you dare to rummage over my things casually, you give me out!"
The annoyed man looks like a ridiculous fighting, this is Xu Chenghuan's truest impression at the moment.
"Bai Xianghuan, can you say anything else besides Actually? A big man, yelling like a shrew, is really insulting!"
She smiled disdainfully, closed the book in her hand, and handed it to Shao Hui behind her: "In order to urge you to study hard, I confiscated this book, lest you go astray, if you have more nonsense, let's take this book to see my mother!"
After Xu Chenghuan said this, he didn't care that Bai Xianghuan was almost angry, he got up leisurely and waved his hand: "Shake Hui, let's go!"
The three masters and servants swaggered and were about to take Bai Xianghuan's handle and slip away, and Bai Xianghuan endured the pain in his liver and shouted: "You stop me!"
"Give me back the book!" he stretched out his hand, gritted his teeth and endured the internal injuries and told himself, calm down, calm down, you must not be called a shrew by a madman again!
Xu Chenghuan looked at Bai Xianghuan with a hideous expression from top to bottom, and with a mocking look in his eyes, he couldn't help but be furious, and then suddenly laughed: "What, you want to rob it?" Okay, if you can beat me, you can take the book back, dare you?"
It's so shameless, it's so hateful!
Bai Xiang was so happy that he was about to explode!
I knew he couldn't beat her, but I wanted to hit him in the face!
He knew that this was definitely not his sister, this was the evil obstacle, and he was specially angry with him!
Looking at his distorted expression, Xu Chenghuan, who had never choked people so happily before, was very happy: "Bai Xianghuan, don't you look down on my sister, aren't you a crazy person who keeps talking, what's wrong with a madman, you can't endorse me, you can't quarrel with me, you can't beat me in a fight, you say, what else can you do in your life except waste some food? You are embarrassed to stand in front of me and make a loud noise, don't take up space!
Yingchun saw that the eldest lady was so mighty, and she was also like a divine help, her courage was rising, and she opened her mouth to say angry words: "The eldest young master is bothering you to let go, it's in the way!"
After finishing speaking, he followed Xu Chenghuan, who had already raised his feet and walked in front of Bai Xianghuan with his head held high, and he didn't give the eldest young master a look.
Shao Hui thought about it, but she didn't have such a lack of heart as Yingchun, and followed without saying a word.
Bai Xianghuan's face was slapped over and over again by his sister with words, and he couldn't describe it with pig liver color, he had to use paint to describe it, and it was really blue and purple.
"Whoa, whoa!"
Xiao Wu, the little guy who was hiding outside the study to protect himself, only heard the sound of books falling to the ground and the inkstone breaking, and his heart ached, it's over, the eldest young master smashed so many things, how can he report it to his wife?
Because of this head-to-head confrontation, the atmosphere at the Bai family's dinner table was particularly discordant.
Xu Chenghuan smiled from time to time to give Mrs. Bai, who had a poor appetite, some dishes with her own hands, and she ate it very fragrantly, only Bai Xianghuan on the opposite side seemed to have a grudge against the noodles in the bowl, and the noodles were poked into batter by him.
Bai Xianghuan, who finally managed to finish the meal and had already learned from his mother what his father was doing, couldn't wait to attack: "Bai Huanniang, even if my mother is not at home, I and my father are negligent and let you suffer a little sin, you can't harm your father like this, what is your intention to give your father a blind idea? You are putting your father in danger! You are really sorry!"
