Chapter 177: Zhuangzi's Journey (1)
There are a total of ten girls in Baifu, except for the second girl who has been married, that is, Bai Zhudan, the eldest daughter of Bai Shiyang in the third room, and there are still eight Baifu girls and an aunt and grandmother on Zhuangzi's trip.
This aunt is undoubtedly Bai Hongjuan.
Originally, she had no intention of going with the girls, but in the end, she couldn't resist the persuasion of Mrs. Bai and the nonsense of Bai Chengyu, and Bai Hongjuan had no choice but to respond.
Bai Qingting traveled, Xiao Er Xiaoqi followed, Bai Chengyu also followed Jing Shu Jing to draw two big girls, and Bai Hongjuan only followed Yingyu one.
Bai Hongjuan originally married the four big maids of the Li family, three of whom either died or were sold in the Li family, and now only one Yingyu remains.
No matter where Bai Hongjuan goes, she always takes the rain with her, and this time she went back to her parents' house was no exception.
And that Taohong didn't follow her to Baifu, it was two days after Bai Hongjuan arrived at the Bai family, the Li family asked Taohong to send **** by herself, saying that she was here to wait for the young lady of the Li family.
Seeing that the Li family was unkind, Mrs. Bai had long been impatient to deal with anyone in the Li family, not to mention that it was such a lowly little slave like Taohong, so she waved her hand, and Taohong's stay let Bai Hongjuan make up her own mind.
Bai Hongjuan thought that her mother-in-law intended to save her heart, so she asked Taohong to persuade her to return home, so she left Taohong behind.
But after the food and the fragrance of the matter, she still didn't understand the real meaning of her mother-in-law's sending peach.
The inside should be combined with the outside, and it is a good calculation!
After Bai Hongjuan returned to Baifu, Mrs. Bai intended to re-select the three big girls to her, but she politely refused. It is enough to say that there is one person to welcome the rain, so in addition to the first-class girl such as Yingyu, the rest of the Chanjuan building are all slaves below the second class.
Compared with the maid's mother who was accompanied by the girls in the other rooms, the people who accompanied the three little masters in the long room were shabby.
In front of the gate of the White Mansion, there is a carriage in each of the four rooms, and the whole four are lined up under the stone steps of the gate, and on both sides of the carriage stand the accompanying maid's mother and the little maid who is driving the car, ready to set off at any time.
Although Bai Hongjuan is a married aunt and grandmother, when she returns to her parents' house this time, all the masters in the house know in their hearts that she is afraid that she will really break off with the Li family.
Years ago, because of Bai Shijun, the county magistrate, and Mrs. Bai, the head of the Bai Mansion, they both supported each other. After the year, there was Bai Qingting, the future Mrs. Dali Siqing. If there was still some gossip a year ago, then no one would dare to gossip at will after the year.
Despite this, Bai Hongjuan did not dare to be a public person, and everything was low-key. Get along with the sisters in peace. Strive not to have the slightest suspicion.
This will receive a look from Bai Qingting's envoy. She didn't dare to continue, and whispered:
"Although I am old, I am already married. Even after the separation, she is no longer the original Baifu girl. Third sister, you still give the order to set off. ”
Bai Qingting is not reluctant, it is still a little reluctant to ask a woman who has been raised by the ancient boudoir since she was a child and she generally does not care about this kind of thing.
In the past life and modern times, divorce is divorce, and this divorce is all over the streets in the previous life, which is not unusual.
But in this life, in ancient times, whether it was divorced or divorced, it was a major event that broke the sky, and it was even more so for women.
Bai Qingting was about to open his mouth and order Lin Hutou of the Baifu Nursing Institute to give the order to go down and set off, so he let a small figure that suddenly rushed out rush in front of her, blocking her from speaking, she looked at Bai Yaozong who was blocking in front of her steadily, and asked:
"Is there something wrong with Zong'er?"
As soon as Bai Chengyu saw Bai Yaozong come out to stop him at the beginning of the journey, it was like Sun Wukong seeing a goblin, and he impatiently stepped forward and wanted to trouble Bai Yaozong, but Bai Hongjuan, who was also on the side, stopped him.
"Big sister!"
"Don't make trouble, Zong'er must be looking for your third sister to have something."
At this time, Bai Yaozong could already hear it panting slightly and said, "Third sister, I really can't think of it, you say it's good to listen to me?" ”
As soon as Bai Qingting heard it, he knew that what he was referring to was the question she gave Bai Yaozong when she returned to Baifu on the first day, so she said:
"Didn't Zong'er already guess two possibilities? If you think about it again, you guessed it? ”
The next afternoon, Bai Yaozong hurriedly went to her pavilion to tell her the answer to the question.
Bai Yaozong shook his head: "I can't guess!" ”
"Zong'er, do you remember the two possibilities you gave me?" Bai Qingting asked.
Bai Yaozong nodded, took Bai Qingting's hand and walked towards the stone lion on the side of the gate, making sure that no one next to the stone lion would hear the words of the two, Fang said:
"First, there are people around my father who eat inside and outside, and they secretly report the news; Second, when the father ordered to inform the mother, the person was a person who was not in a tight manner, and the people who shouted and made trouble along the way were known to all the hospitals. ”
Bai Qingting hummed and said, "Zong'er think about it, an old man who chops firewood goes up the mountain with a rusty axe to chop firewood, but the harvest is always pitiful, why is this?" ”
Bai Yaozong was stunned for a moment, then calmed down and thought about it, and then replied:
"It may be that the rusty axe is not good and it takes more effort to cut down trees, or it may be that the old man is old and healthy, and it takes more time to cut down the trees."
"That's right, it's more likely that there are both of these reasons, so the old man can't gain much every time." Bai Qingting continued.
When Bai Yaozong heard this, he thought for a while.
He thought about what the third sister must mean by giving such an example to him.
Bai Qingting was not in a hurry, she glanced back at the white orange jade by the gate of the Bai Mansion, and then looked at the curious beautiful eyes of the girls in each room, she smiled lightly and returned her gaze to Bai Yaozong.
He must have thought of it, she thought.
It really didn't take long for a while, Bai Yao Zongxing hurriedly said:
"Zong'er understands! The meaning of the third sister means that there is only one cause for everything, sometimes it has one and two, or even more, just like the return of the third sister to the house this time! ”
"Oh? Let's talk about it. ”
"If the two possibilities on the father's side are denied, then the possibility that the father will go to the inner house to inform the mother and let the news go can only fall on the people around the mother, or this possibility can fall on one or more of the people in the Wenjun Courtyard." Bai Yaozong said at the iron mouth.
Bai Qingting looked at his pretty face that was slightly red from excitement, and she unconsciously reached out and pinched his face.
Bai Yaozong immediately jumped away, and said with a red face:
"Third sister! Zong'er has grown up, and the third sister's move is very inappropriate! ”
Bai Qingting pursed his lips boringly, and looked at his right hand, which had just been pinched with tender flesh, and said:
"In this case, the person who found out about the meticulous work around his father and mother will be handed over to Zong'er, who has grown up."
After speaking, she walked towards the gate of Baifu, and instructed Lin Hutou to set off, and in less than a moment the girls in each room got into their own carriages, and with the sound of the carriages, the trip to Zhuangzi of the Baifu girls officially started.
And Bai Yaozong, who was standing in front of the gate of the Bai Mansion and followed by two attendants, also secretly decided that he must complete the task given to him by Bai Qingting. (To be continued.) )
