Chapter 166: Undercurrent (2)
Bai Qingting motioned for Xiao Er and Xiao Qi, who were blocking in front of him, to walk away, then looked at the two minions who were trembling with their heads buried in shock, and said softly: "Forget it, those who don't know are not guilty." ”
"Slave Xie San Girl!"
"Let's go, don't let your grandfather and grandmother, father and mother be in a hurry." Bai Qingting didn't pay attention to it anymore, and took the lead in walking through the arch and entering the middle courtyard.
Xiao Er followed, and Xiao Chun also hurriedly followed.
Only Xiao Qi glared at the two minions who were still kneeling, and she warned: "Grow your eyes in the future!" It's not for everyone to just stare at it! Watch carefully, and you'll lose your tricks! ”
"Yes, yes, yes! Sister has taught me a lesson! One of the minions hurriedly flattered and said that the big girl next to these masters was not something they could provoke.
The other minion nodded violently, not even daring to say another word, only sneaking a glance at the beautiful Xiao Qi out of the corner of his eye.
"Who's your sister! Scream again, be careful I cut your tongue! Xiao Qi glared at the two minions and dropped such a cruel sentence, then spread his legs and caught up with Bai Qingting and the others, who had walked more than ten steps away.
The two minions who were left guarding the door of the middle courtyard looked at each other, and the four legs that stood after getting up were still trembling slightly.
Especially the slave who was glared at by Xiao Qi and threatened to cut off his tongue, his face was full of tears without tears.
Through the corridor and through the courtyard, the minions guarding the doors behind them are all much more eye-catching than the two minions who enter the door, seeing that it is the person brought by the big girl Xiaochun next to Mrs. Bai, and Xiaochun is still respectful everywhere, these minions dare not be presumptuous. I'm afraid I'll offend my master, so they won't be able to eat and they have to go around!
I have to say that the closer you get to the main courtyard Qiantangxuan, the slaves and maids you see along the way are more clever than the other, and their ability to observe faces and colors is not inferior to the bottom of the palace maids.
When Xiaochun led the three masters and servants of Bai Qingting to the courtyard of the two ancestors, Qiantangxuan, it was not early.
Bai Qingting glanced at the slaves and maids guarding on both sides of Qiantangxuan from a distance, except for the two slaves guarding the courtyard gate, the two slaves and maids, one old and one young, stood under the courtyard gate with two big lanterns hung high, and were stretching their necks to look at the end of the bluestone road in front of the courtyard gate.
As soon as Bai Qingting and the others appeared at the end of the bluestone road, the old and the young greeted them. A few carry lanterns to illuminate the bluestone road. The old Hot Wheels came to her.
Xiaochun carried a lantern to light the way, and Bai Qingting looked at the two people walking briskly from a distance, because the sky was too dark, the lantern had a limited illumination. There is nowhere to hang lanterns on both sides of the bluestone road.
Time. She couldn't see the faces of the two of them clearly. I vaguely felt that the young face seemed to be Xiao Xia who had just seen it during the day.
Xiao Er and Xiao Qi are people who practice martial arts, not only their ears are better, but their eyesight is not bad.
Xiao Er always paid attention to Bai Qingting. Seeing Bai Qingting's movement of looking forward, she leaned close to Bai Qingting's ear and whispered: "The less is Xiao Xia who sees it during the day, and the old slave doesn't recognize it." ”
"I don't recognize it either!" Xiao Qi also followed the road.
Xiao Er and Xiao Qi did not deliberately suppress their voices, Xiao Chun naturally heard the words of the two, so after Xiao Qi finished speaking, she also said: "Presumably Mrs. sent someone to pick up the third girl." ”
Bai Qingting didn't speak, only hummed softly.
When the old and the young came closer, the young one was really Xiao Xia, and the old Bai Qingting didn't recognize it.
Bai Qingting and the others stopped their steps and looked at the old and young who had come to the front.
The old man first glanced at Xiaochun, then saluted Bai Qingting and asked, "But the third girl?" ”
Bai Qingting smiled lightly and looked at the middle-aged woman in front of him, who should be not much worse than Ma's mother.
Wearing a dark vermilion shirt, a long black and gray skirt, embroidered with simple patterns on the placket, a dark blue ring pressed on the skirt, and a rigorous sideburns combed on the head, neatly up and down.
The smile on his face, his respectful attitude, and his thoughtful etiquette all make people unable to find the slightest mistake, calm and bearing, and at first glance he is a slave with a head and a face.
The middle-aged woman knew that Bai Qingting definitely didn't know her identity, and without waiting for Xiaochun to introduce her, she opened her mouth and reported to her home:
"The old slave was waiting by the side of the lady, and was originally the housekeeper mother of the outer courtyard of Wenjun Courtyard, but since today Sister Ma passed the Ying Pavilion to wait for the three girls, the old slave asked the lady to return to the inner courtyard to be the housekeeper mother of the inner courtyard, and the old slave gave the third girl a courtesy!"
It turned out to be a powerful mother beside her cheap mother, Bai Qingting asked kindly, "I don't know how to call my mother?" ”
"The old slave's house is pale." Mother Cang replied.
"Oh? It doesn't matter if Steward Cang is ......"
"It's the old slave's mouth!"
Bai Qingting really smiled this time, very sincerely.
Her cheap mother is really a means, I'm afraid that all the powerful little guys around the cheap father have let their mother match their own people.
No matter how much the cheap father can toss, he can't turn the cheap mother's Five Finger Mountain.
"But Mother asked Mother Cang to wait for me outside Qiantangxuan?" Bai Qingting asked.
"Exactly, the third girl, please come with the old slave." After Mama Cang finished speaking, she immediately led the way in front.
Bai Qingting followed Mother Cang step by step into Qiantangxuan, thinking that this Mrs. Bai was really heartbroken for her, and she sent three people to guide her alone, which really made her a little embarrassed by this fake.
After entering Qiantangxuan, she saw that there were lights everywhere in the courtyard, and Yan Ran had a lively atmosphere for the New Year, which really flattered Bai Qingting.
She lost the official rank of the third grade, lost the favor of the current emperor, and lost the bargaining chip to make the Bai Mansion and you honorable, can the Bai family really treat her as before?
In her memory, in the past, the Bai family treated her really well, but whenever she celebrated the New Year, she could always receive gifts from the Bai family who did everything possible to bring her into the palace, no matter how big or small, whether expensive or not, it was always a heart.
Before she was reborn in Tomorrow Qing's body, Tomorrow Qing was often always bittersweet when she received these gifts.
The good thing is that tomorrow is sunny In the lonely and lonely years in the palace, there are finally people outside the palace who are worried about her, although they are only worried about the identity of Bai Qingting that she replaced.
It's a shame that tomorrow Qing is not the real Bai Qingting, every time the Bai family goes to Beijing, whether it is deliberately or by the way, she always makes up all kinds of excuses to avoid the Bai family, and she is not the real Bai family's daughter after all.
Bai Qingting took a deep breath, and her steps got closer and closer to the main hall where Qiantang Xuan washed the dust and held a banquet for her.
She never believed in repaying grievances with virtue, let alone in aimless great family affection.
If there was such pure family affection, she would not have been abandoned in an orphanage since she was a child in her previous life.
The conflict between her and her big sister in her previous life, she prefers to call it a life-and-death friendship that depends on each other.
As soon as Bai Qingting stepped into the main hall, the originally quiet hall was even quieter because of her arrival.
Everyone in each room sitting on both sides of the banquet in the hall looked at the entrance of the main hall and looked at the Baiqing Pavilion in the middle of Xiao Er Xiaoqi, Xiao Chun Xiao Xia and Cang Mama. (To be continued.) )
