"Second Miss has arrived. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info" The grandmother at the door raised her voice.

Everyone's eyes turned sharply, staring closely at the door, wanting to see the true face of the legendary "No. 1 ugly girl in Liyue City". Bai Raorao gloated and said, "Eldest sister, do you guess if everyone will spit out the dim sum they just ate when they see her." ”

The White Demon motioned for her to shut up, "Don't talk nonsense. ”

Bai Raorao stuck out her tongue, "How can there be nonsense, I'm telling the truth." Bai Raorao has long been accustomed to the gentleness and kindness of the eldest sister, speaking of which the eldest sister was not such a character when she was a child, she remembered that at that time, the eldest sister liked everything that was popular and purple, the makeup was exquisite and charming, and the hairpin rings on her body were jingling, and she was the focus of everyone's attention wherever she went. After a serious illness three years ago, the eldest sister completely changed as a person.

Scattered flowers, mist and green grass pleated skirt, coat goose yellow brocade jacket, green silk high combed into a sky-high bun, inserted a silver lotus bead tassel swaying, slender waist like willow, curling Tingting. With the support of broken jade, Bai Qianqian entered.

At the beginning, there was an exclamation, and everyone's eyes were full of envy, the second lady of the Bai family was like a celestial, and the daughters of the Bai family were more prominent than one another. Immediately after, there was a sigh. When Bai Qianqian approached, everyone saw the hideous scars on her face and the ugly black mole between her eyebrows.

"Shallow, my good granddaughter, come, let grandmother take a good look. You see, you have been sick for five years, and your whole person has lost weight, and my grandmother is so distressed. It's really God's mercy, and finally the clouds are open and the moon is bright, and another day, I have to thank the Buddha well. Old Madam Bai beckoned to Bai Qianqian and motioned for her to step forward, completely looking like a kind old lady.

Only Bai Qianqian knew how fake the smile on the old lady's face was. Bai Changqing and Ge Shi, who were sitting beside the old lady, also had gentle smiles on their faces. The three of them were obviously smiling, but they made Bai Qianqian feel cold. If it weren't for the fact that they were trying to get benefits from the Shangguan family in her name, how could they be so enthusiastic and make such a reception dinner that shocked half of the city. It's just that they don't know that today's Bai Qianqian is no longer the Bai Qianqian of the previous life, and they will never be at their mercy again.

Bai Qianyingying stepped forward and bowed to the old lady, "Thank you grandmother for your mercy, I am grateful." ”

"You're just recovering from a serious illness, you can't toss, get up quickly." Old Madam Bai got up and helped Bai Qianqian up, "It's good to move back, grandmother has been thinking about you all these years." Speaking of which, you are also a miserable person, you have no mother at a young age, you have been sick and plagued since you were a child, and when you were ten years old, you actually suffered from such a strange disease......" Speaking of emotion, the old lady had red eyes, took out a handkerchief and wiped her tears.

Seeing this, Ge Shi comforted Wen Yan, "Mother, you have just recovered from a shallow illness and moved back to the compound, this is a great joy, why are you crying." ”

"Yes, yes, how can you cry for happy events. Look at me, the older I get, the more confused I become. The old lady put away her handkerchief.

Everyone present was moved by a few tears of the old lady, and secretly sighed that the old lady was kind and benevolent, but they didn't know that all this was just acting. This kind of drama, Bai Qianqian has watched it countless times in his previous life and has been moved countless times. As a result, she was used again and again, and she was calculated again and again.

"This is the second miss of the Bai family? It's better to see than to hear. This is a congratulatory gift, congratulating the second lady on her initial recovery from a serious illness. May the second lady be free from illness and disaster from now on, and have good luck. "The Wu family is a rouge merchant, and the congratulatory gift is naturally the best rouge gouache at the moment.

The Chen family runs a wine shop, and the congratulatory gift is the best daughter red, "Master Bai, Mrs. Bai, don't look at the jar is not very good, the wine in it is the best daughter Hong, buried for a full eighteen years." ”

……

The rest of the families also sent congratulatory gifts, and Mrs. Bai led Bai Qianqian to thank them one by one.

"Eldest sister, why didn't you see Lord Helan?" The dinner party was about to start, Bai Raorao didn't find the figure of Lord Helan, and her spring heart was extremely disappointed. If Lord Helan doesn't come, who will she show if she is trying her best to dress up? At the dinner, there were many young businessmen, who looked at the two sisters one by one, intentionally or unintentionally, but none of them were her favorites.

The White Demon did not answer.

As soon as Bai Rao's words fell, the hurried footsteps of Steward Mo sounded at the door. He walked around from the right side of the guest hall to the front, stood beside Bai Changqing with his head down, and lowered his voice, "Master, Lord Helan has arrived!" ”

"Really? Can you see clearly, is it really Lord Yin Helan? Bai Changqing asked cautiously.

Steward Mo nodded, "That's right, it's Lord Yin Helan." ”

"Quick, quick, go out and greet." Bai Changqing got up and arched his hand to everyone and said, "Everyone, Bai has been absent for a while, Lord Helan came to the door for the first time, and Bai went to greet him. "All the people here are businessmen, and they flatter the official family in various ways on weekdays, but I didn't expect the Bai family to invite the new Lord Helan, which was unbelievable for a while. In the stunned eyes of everyone, Bai Changqing walked out of the guest hall and walked towards the gate.

"Eldest sister, Lord Helan has arrived!" The happiest person was Bai Raorao, who almost jumped up from her seat, and couldn't wait to follow her father to the door to greet Lord Helan, "Eldest sister, can you help me take a look, has the bun been blown by the wind, and is there anything wrong with the clothes?" Oh my God, I ate mung bean cake just now, did I leave okara at the corner of my mouth? ”

The white demon looked at her scrambled appearance and smiled slightly, "Sister, don't be nervous. You are dressed so beautifully today, Lord Helan can take a fancy to it at a glance. ”

"Really?" Bai Raorao asked.

"Of course, when did the eldest sister lie to you." The White Demon replied.

"Look, look, it's really Lord Helan." Someone exclaimed.

Bai Qianqian raised his eyes and saw this Lord Helan who disturbed the spring heart of the girl from Liyue City, in the memory of her previous life, there was no Lord Helan. Lord Helan is only in his twenties, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, bright eyes, wearing a silver satin robe, a water-blue rhinestone belt, walking like the wind, full of masculinity. Such a man, with a high family and a dignified appearance, has enough qualifications to become the spring boudoir dream of many girls.

Such a man, will the white demon not be moved? Bai Qianqian looked at the white demon demon, only to see a flash of envy in her eyes, and then returned to normal. Today's white demon is very different from the previous life, no longer the woman who is charming to the extreme, but is reserved, gentle and atmospheric, I heard that she also reads poetry and books, and is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, which can be called a talent and art. Is this really the white demon I once knew?

Helan Jun glanced at the guest hall, his gaze was like a cheetah and an eagle, indescribably breathtaking, staring at people's backs with a chill. Bai Qianqian was taken aback, how could such a sharp gaze come from Yijie Mansion Yin? It's like a battle-hardened and invincible general! In her previous life, she followed Li Jinluo and the second prince Nangong Jing, and how many young generals she had seen, all of them were majestic and courageous, but none of the generals had such eyes as Lord Helan.

Helan Jun's gaze stayed on Bai Qianqian, without disdain, without disdain, but suddenly gave birth to a little warmth, "This is the second miss of the Bai family?" ”

Bai Changqing smiled all over his face, "It's the little girl." Shallow, don't come to meet Lord Helan yet! ”

Bai Qianying stepped forward, and before she bent down, she was supported by He Lanjun, "The second lady has just recovered from a long illness, and her body is weak, so these vulgar rites can be exempted." After that, he took out an object from his arms and presented it to Bai Qianqian with both hands, "A small congratulatory gift is not a tribute." ”
