Chapter 174: Determination and Separation (1)
Bai Chengyu looked at Bai Hongjuan, and said softly: "Eldest sister, it's been a long time since I've seen you smile so happily......"
As soon as Bai Hongjuan's laughter stopped, her eyes began to redden.
"Don't, don't, big sister! Don't cry......" Bai Chengyu took out a silk handkerchief and handed it to Bai Hongjuan at a loss, but her eyes looked at Bai Qingting in distress.
"Eldest sister, don't cry anymore, crying and swollen eyes won't help, it's better to keep your spirit, let's talk about it tomorrow morning, how to solve it, everything will have a result." Bai Qingting persuaded.
Bai Hongjuan took the silk handkerchief of white orange jade, wiped away the tears that slipped out of her eyes, and said calmly: "I know, I accept the result whether it is good or bad." ”
"No, the results are not good or bad." Bai Qingting affirmed.
Bai Hongjuan looked at Bai Qingting puzzled, and Bai Chengyu also looked puzzled.
Xiao Er and Xiao Qi glanced at each other, but they understood a little.
"Whatever result you want, I'll give you what you want!"
Bai Qingting's last sentence made Bai Hongjuan insomnia all night.
As soon as it was dawn the next day, Bai Hongjuan got up, and the only remaining big girl Huan Yingyu next to her looked at her in surprise.
"What's wrong? Why don't you come and comb my hair! Bai Hongjuan sat down in front of the dresser by herself, and said to Yingyu, who was stunned on the side.
Hearing this, Yingyu hurriedly stepped forward, picked up the delicate crescent comb, and asked, "Big girl...... What kind of sideburns is the young lady going to comb today? ”
Listening to Yingyu's name of turning and turning, Bai Hongjuan smiled: "Just comb it...... From now on, you can call me whatever you want. You don't have to deliberately call me Madame. ”
In the past, because she married into the Li family, and because she wanted to show her identity after marrying into the Li family, she asked Yingyu to change her title from the eldest girl to the eldest young lady, but now this title is no longer important.
What is she left with other than the title she still has?
In that case, she might as well not have to!
Yingyu responded softly, didn't say anything, silently gathered Bai Hongjuan's long hair on the top, and then skillfully braided it upwards into a basket, which was wrapped in tender yellow silk. combed Bai Hongjuan's half-turned high temples. It is elegant and delicate.
Bai Hongjuan looked at the yellow silk juan on the temples in the bronze mirror, which happened to match the silver gray half-arm of the yellow skirt she was wearing today, and she said with satisfaction:
"Your hands are getting more and more skillful, and I'm glad you're still by my side......"
"Auntie...... The Young Lady. There is still a long way to go. It'll get better slowly. Yingyu is one of Bai Hongjuan's four major dowry maids who married to the Li family. So in fact, she prefers to call Bai Hongjuan a big girl.
But she understands better that if Bai Hongjuan really leaves the Li family, then her eldest girl's life will be even more difficult in the future.
Bai Hongjuan listened to what Yingyu finally called her. I don't know what Yingyu secretly advised her.
She can understand Yingyu's expectations of her, but Yingyu doesn't understand her heartache that is completely wounded!
"From now on, you can call me a big girl."
"Young lady......"
"It's an order!"
"Yes...... Big girl......"
When she arrived at Yingting Tower, as soon as Bai Hongjuan entered the courtyard gate, she saw Bai Qingting from a distance with strange gestures, punching and kicking in the courtyard, and it could be seen that it should be a martial art, which was a little different from the martial arts she usually saw.
Bai Hongjuan approached Bai Qingting strangely and asked, "Third sister, what are you doing here?" ”
Since Bai Hongjuan entered the hospital, Bai Qingting knew about it, but she also had to practice a complete set of karate, and when she finished practicing, she replied lightly:
"It's nothing, it's just some ways to strengthen your body."
Bai Hongjuan nodded clearly, she didn't mean to delve into it, and she didn't ask anything more when she heard Bai Qingting explain this.
"The eldest sister got up really early, and the eighth sister's girl is afraid that she is still sleeping on the bed!" Bai Qingting saw that Bai Hongjuan had no smile on her face, and couldn't help but say lightly.
As soon as she mentioned the white orange jade, Bai Hongjuan finally had a smile and said:
"The girl said that she would come early with her, but she was so sleepy, so I didn't send anyone to call her, let her sleep a little longer, and come back later."
"It's okay, when the eighth sister comes, just in time for lunch, our three sisters will go to Wenjunyuan to have lunch with our father and mother, eldest sister, do you say it's okay?" Bai Qingting asked.
"That's good! The third sister arranged it. Bai Hongjuan knew that Bai Qingting wanted to make her happier, but she unconsciously accepted Bai Qingting's affection, and no longer had a sad face.
Bai Qingting felt a little more relaxed when she saw this, took the sweat towel handed over by Xiao Er to wipe the hot sweat on her forehead and neck, and she led Bai Hongjuan back to the pavilion, followed by Xiao Er, Xiao Qi and Yingyu.
Entering the main hall of the outer room of the pavilion, Bai Qingting said to Bai Hongjuan:
"Eldest sister, I'll go back to the inner room first and wash up before changing my clothes, you sit down for a while, and I'll come out soon."
"I'm waiting for you here, you don't have to worry." Bai Hongjuan said softly.
glanced at Bai Hongjuan's not very good face, guessing that Bai Hongjuan must have been due to a bad night's sleep, she ordered:
"Xiao Qi, take good care of your aunt and grandmother."
"Don't worry, girl!" Xiao Qi responded happily, and after Bai Qingting and Xiao Er entered the inner room, she diligently served tea with her hands and feet.
Bai Hongjuan had something in her heart, and she couldn't help but feel down, and it was not much better to welcome the rain.
The entire outer room and the main hall were also busy with Xiao Qi's high spirits, jumping up and down, and Yingyu's face became more and more unsightly.
Yingyu is not a person who can't see Xiao Qi's happy mood, but compared with Xiao Qi's master, the third girl, her master, the eldest girl, is simply different from cloud and mud, and she can't help but feel sad in her heart.
What's more, when Bai Hongjuan came to Yingtinglou, she asked her to change her name to the eldest girl, which made Yingyu have a bad premonition, and she only blindly hoped in her heart that the eldest girl would not do stupid things.
Xiao Qi is also a ghost, seeing that Bai Hongjuan's master and servant all looked gloomy and bleak, Bai Hongjuan didn't even have the shallow smile on her face after Bai Qingting entered the inner room, she thought about it:
"Auntie and grandmother don't have to worry, since my girl said that she wants to help her aunt and grandmother, then my aunt and grandmother can put her heart in her stomach! My girl has always done what she says, and my aunt and grandmother will wait and see with peace of mind! ”
Hearing Xiao Qihao's big words, Bai Hongjuan's master and servant couldn't help but look at her, and Bai Hongjuan asked in surprise:
"Xiao Qi, did you come out of the palace with the third sister?"
Xiao Qi shook his head: "No, the slave maid is the girl who followed my family later." ”
Bai Hongjuan showed a slight look of disappointment: "In this way, you shouldn't know how the third sister spent her years in the palace......
"That's not true, whatever the aunt and grandmother want to ask, just ask, as long as the slave can answer, the slave and the maid will tell the truth." Xiao Qi said deftly, she said that those who could answer told the truth, and those who couldn't answer could only be told by nothing. (To be continued.) )
