Chapter 167: Undercurrent (4)
Xiao Qi felt that Bai Yaozong was very interesting, and he was a little adult, staring at Bai Yaozong with interesting eyes.
Xiao Er felt in her heart that Bai Qingting should be happy to see Bai Yaozong so sensible, and when she turned to look at Bai Qingting, she saw her own girl's slight smile, and the satisfaction in her eyes was fully revealed.
Bai Qingting has been practicing his skills for many years, and his ear and eyesight are better than ordinary people.
Although Bai Yaozong suppressed her indignation very low, almost only allowing Bai Chengyu and the two of them to hear it, she still heard some.
She couldn't help but rejoice that this younger brother would definitely make a difference when he became an adult, no wonder the mercenary Old Lady Bai would take Bai Yaozong to heart.
In the next banquet, Bai Qingting almost didn't eat any delicious food, so under the leadership of Mrs. Bai, he met the uncles and aunts in each room, and the aunts and concubines in each courtyard one by one.
Even Bai Shijun's six aunts, Mrs. Bai hastily introduced her, which made the ladies in the main room of the other rooms couldn't help but look at Mrs. Bai a few more times.
Madame Bai ignored it, and as soon as she saw it, she took Bai Qingting back to sit in the case.
Because of their old age, Mrs. Bai left the table and went back to the dormitory to rest in the middle of the dust washing banquet.
The family banquet for Bai Qingting to wash the dust was not sincere except for the eldest room, and they all had to go to the banquet for fear of the two ancestors being blamed.
As soon as the two ancestors left the table, the next moment the banquet was dispersed, and the old men and ladies in each room got up and walked to Bai Shijun's room.
"Big brother, now Qingting is home. Presumably, the blessings of the long house in the future must become more and more heavy! Bai Shiyang, the third master of the Bai Mansion, stood in front of Bai Shijun and said with a smile, but a pair of eyes swept over the Bai Qingting behind Bai Shijun and his wife, intentionally or unintentionally.
Bai Qingting looked at Bai Shiyang's smile that couldn't be faker, and didn't make a sound, only smiled lightly when Bai Shiyang's eyes as thin as a crack in the door met her.
Bai Shiyang is now seventy years old in Chinese New Year's Eve, and he was quite talented in business when he was a teenager, Bai Shijun embarked on the road of imperial examination, and he then went into business, and now he is the richest man in Shangyuan County after the Ming family, and deserves to be the richest lord of Baifu.
Tonight's dust washing banquet seems to have been deliberately dressed up. It's a pity that the body is round and fat. He tightly repaired the fat of his body in the brocade jade belt, and forcibly lost the beauty of the original brocade clothes, but instead had a little more nouveau riche feeling.
His handsome face, which was similar to Bai Shijunxiao, was also squeezed out more and more because of the fat on his face, like a white and tender pig's head.
When Bai Qingting came to meet the third uncle. She felt that the third uncle was very hostile to her eldest room. Somehow either.
Before Bai Shijun had anything to say. Bai Shiyang's wife, Mrs. Bai San, followed and said, "Who says it's not!" With a son-in-law of Dali Temple, the eldest brother and sister-in-law will really have peace of mind in the future! It's a pity that we are just a small business, and we really don't dare to climb with such a noble brother and sister-in-law in the future. ”
"The third brother is polite. The three brothers and sisters are even more alienated, they are all a family, how can they say that they can't climb high or not! Bai Shijun has a fair face, quite a businesslike in the court, and does not show half of his joy and anger.
Bai Qingting secretly shouted in his heart!
"That's it! Qingting has just returned home, and he is not very familiar with the girls and sons of each room, so he has to be close to each other in the next few days, and they are all a family after all. Madame Bai said, glancing at the girls and sons in each room who were around their parents.
As soon as Mrs. Bai's words came out, Bai Qingting secretly gave her cheap mother 32 likes!
Although Mrs. Bai never accepted the word Gao Pan in her words, she also secretly reminded that there are many girls and sons in the Bai Mansion who have not left the pavilion and have not married wives, and the masters of each room have to think carefully before speaking!
Bai Qingting is the third serious girl in Baifu, if she can find a good husband, why not rely on the girls and sons in Baifu to say goodbye in the future?
Speaking of relatives, which family is not made in the words of others?
If Bai Qingting really marries the gentleman and is the wife of the main room, in the future, if the matchmaker comes to Baifu to ask for marriage, or Baifu asks the matchmaker **** to go to Beppu to ask for marriage, who can not think about the noble identity of the second son-in-law of Baifu Changfang first? Who can not weigh the influence of the Zhengsanpin Dali Temple Qing Dynasty first? Who wouldn't want to borrow this radiant light?
All the rooms in the main hall are full of active thoughts, and their thoughts are turning thousands of times in an instant, and as soon as Mrs. Bai's words fall, where can anyone not hear the meaning of the words?
For a while, Bai Shiyang and his wife's faces gradually showed a sense of ridicule, and the couple relied on money to pressure people, but as soon as they touched the twists and turns in the officialdom, they were both a mess of brains and couldn't figure it out.
At this time, Bai Shiyan's wife, Mrs. Bai Si, stepped forward and said with a gentle smile: "The eldest brother and sister-in-law are reasonable, they are all one family, where can they separate the two families?" ”
Saying that, Mrs. Bai Si smiled at Mrs. Bai San, Mrs. Bai was extremely embarrassed, and Bai Shiyang was not much better, but she was speechless in place.
"The third brother and sister-in-law have drunk too much wine at the banquet, can't they?" Seeing this, Bai Shiyan took over the words, and with his gentle words, he led Bai Shiyang's outrageous words to the drunkenness and misdeeds.
Bai Qingting sneered in his heart, Bai Yan and his wife in this world are really a good pot of wine!
Bai Shiyan has always held a high profile as the prefect of Haining Mansion from the fourth grade, and he always looks high.
He is different from Bai Shijun, and the merchants he looks down on the most are the merchants, who always feel that except for a few stinky money, all of them exude an unrecognizable copper stench, and their words are even more vulgar.
At this moment, he was able to cooperate with his wife to relieve Bai Shiyang, which made Bai Shiyang can't help but glance at Bai Shiyan's scholarly and handsome face, and then turned his face away and didn't know what to think.
Bai Qingting felt that there must be a demon when things went wrong, and the information in the Bai family's picture album given to her by Junzi Heng was limited, but it was enough for her to understand the temperament and character of everyone in Bai Mansion and how to deal with people.
This Bai Shiyan tonight is actually different from the previous low opinion of Bai Shiyang, there must be some reason for this.
Unlike Bai Shiyan's disdain to interact with Bai Shiyang and other merchants, his wife, Mrs. Bai Si, has always been kind and good at getting along with each room.
For Bai Shiyang's wife, Mrs. Bai San, and Bai Shitong's wife, Mrs. Bai Er, who had not yet spoken, she was even more sewn left and right, and they got along very harmoniously.
Mrs. Bai Si will speak for Bai Shiyang and his wife, Bai Qingting is not surprised, it is really a proper diplomatic means, and she is really worthy of being the daughter of the former prefect of Haining Mansion.
Bai Shiyang and his wife were so disturbed by Bai Shiyan and his wife, but they were speechless for a while.
Bai Shijun has always been a generous character, even if he is just a county magistrate with a positive seventh grade, and his status is also several streets away from Bai Shiyang, a merchant, but Bai Shijun never gives them a look, and they have never had a trace of official status.
