Chapter 248: Showing Favor (2)

is different from Bai Shitong, even if she is half-protected by Mrs. Bai, Bai Shihui is a pitiful person after all.

Seeing this, Guan's mother tried to ask, "The old slave helped the old lady to go to the inner room to rest." ”

Old Madam Bai did not object, and was helped by Guan's mother to get up and walk to the inner room, and even walked in small steps:

"I'll go to rest, you go and get the pearl jade head and send it to Chanjuanlou in person."

Guan's mother was surprised: "Give it to my aunt...... Mother sent? ”

Bai Hongjuan has returned to Baifu to live for a long time, and she can't call her aunt and grandmother anymore, she is almost about to call the wrong one.

Old Madam Bai nodded and said, "Just send it to her, you don't have to say anything." ”

After Guan's mother should get down, she waited for the old lady to rest on the bed, and she really took out the pearl jade head that the old lady Bai liked very much.

After carefully examining the precious head of the seventy-two pearls, and after Mama Guan felt that there was nothing missing or inappropriate, she carefully put it back into the ebony box and put it away.

Mrs. Bai asked her to send it in person, and she also gave such a valuable head, which is enough to show that Mrs. Bai attaches great importance to Bai Hongjuan, the eldest granddaughter of her relatives, and she must not be careless.

Summoned two big girls to guard Mrs. Bai indoors, and Guan's mother went out of the middle compound alone and went to Chanjuan Building in the east compound.

In Chanjuan's building, Bai Hongjuan sat at the round table in Juanju's inner room, listening to Yingyu in surprise and talking about all the rumors about her and Li.

The rumor turned one-sidedly in her favor was the least daring of all the scenes she had imagined since her decision and departure.

But this is the most unthinkable. And it's just a fact!

Bai Hongjuan listened to Yingyu's statement without exaggeration in a daze.

She understands Yingyu and knows that Yingyu is an honest girl, always one is one, two is two, never falls into the ground, let alone icing on the cake.

Then, the rumors in Yingyu's mouth are ten percent true!

Bai Hongjuan was absentmindedly chewing the jujube paste cake, Yingyu was smiling and following the waiter, handing down the fragrant tea to quench Bai Hongjuan's thirst, and when she saw the little girl bring in the sweet soup, she took it with one hand.

She touched the bowl with the back of her hand. I think the temperature is slightly high. But in winter, it is always cold faster, and my own girl is a chill, so the slightly high temperature is just right, and she said happily:

"Girl. The plum and water chestnut soup is ready. This should be a bit hot in the mouth. But it's cold fast, and you'll see it cold in a while, so the girl should use it quickly. ”

Bai Hongjuan hummed softly. Looking at the sweet soup on the table in front of her, she had no appetite at all, and there was always a mess in her heart.

Maybe...... Maybe it's because the habit of working before and after the Li family for six years is too profound, and she suddenly became idle, and will continue to be so leisurely in the future, she suddenly feels unaccustomed, there is always a place empty in her heart, and she can't tell why.

Unlike in the past, when she went back to her parents' house to live by chance, this time she really broke off her relationship with the Li family and Li Xiaosheng, and she never had to return to the tiger and wolf's den.

She should be happy.

Exhaling deeply, Bai Hongjuan picked up the soup spoon and stirred the plums and water chestnuts in the sweet soup in the bowl, she knew that this was plum and water chestnut soup, and she was obviously not listening to what Yingyu said to her.

After drinking and eating two bites, a little girl came to report outside the door of Juanju, saying that Qiantangxuan's mother Guan was here.

Bai Hongjuan was a little stunned, what is Mother Guan doing?

Yingyu turned from a smile to a stunned look, why did Mother Guan next to this old lady come to Chanjuan Tower?

You must know that since Bai Hongjuan returned to Baifu to live for a long time a long time, Old Lady Bai and Old Lady Bai have closed their eyes and covered their ears, and they have ignored her affairs, and when they mention her, they only ask for the crime that day.

Let Xiao Yahuan quickly invite Guan's mother to enter Juan's house, Bai Hongjuan has been sitting on the Luohan bed in the outer room, Guan's mother entered to see her, she said with a pleasant face:

"Mother Guan really doesn't have to be so polite, you are an old man next to your grandmother, and you also watched Hongjuan grow up since she was a child, why do you need to be so polite!"

Guan's mother smiled and said: "The etiquette cannot be abolished, and the number of etiquette that should be there must be there." ”

Bai Hongjuan turned her eyes to look at the ebony box that Guan's mother was holding in both hands, and asked:

"Off, Mom, this is ......"

Guan's mother understood and replied: "This is what the old lady ordered the old slave to send to the eldest girl." ”

As she spoke, Guan's mother handed over the ebony box to Yingyu.

Yingyu stepped forward to take it and returned to Bai Hongjuan's side.

At Bai Hongjuan's signal, she opened it and saw that it was a valuable pearl jade head, Yingyu opened her mouth slightly, and almost called out.

Bai Hongjuan also stood up in shock, looked at the pearl jade's head and face for a long time, and asked Guan's mother suspiciously:

"Hongjuan is ignorant, I don't know what grandmother means, can Mother Guan teach me a lesson or two?"

Guan's mother was also heavy-hearted, still with a smile on her face, and did not reply to Bai Hongjuan's tentative words head-on, but said:

"The eldest girl is a blessed one, the old lady gave this face to the eldest girl, and she loves the eldest girl from the bottom of her heart, and the eldest girl doesn't have to think about it, it is true that it is just a grandmother's love for her granddaughter."

Since Guan's mother left, Bai Hongjuan still couldn't figure it out, and Yingyu was also worried and swollen on the side:

"This old lady won't be ...... It won't be ......"

Listening to Yingyu intermittently not saying a cool word, Bai Hongjuan looked at Yingyu strangely:

"It won't be anything, to put it bluntly, it's just you and me here, what's not to say directly?"

After Ying Yu took a deep breath and exhaled, he really said bluntly:

"Wouldn't this old lady see that the girl had just reconciled and left, so she found the door for the girl...... Relatives, right? ”

Bai Hongjuan was stunned for a moment, and then casually flicked the head of the ebony box held by Yingyu in both hands, and said with a smile in her mouth:

"You're thinking so much! Where did my grandmother get her spare time to mind my business! ”

Yingyu hurriedly said: "But, but what's going on with this face?" This is the head of pearl jadeite! ”

Thinking about it, she reminded Bai Hongjuan and said: "The girl forgot, when the eighth girl and the ninth girl saw this face at the old lady of Qiantangxuan a few years ago, they liked it very much!" ”

Bai Hongjuan stopped teasing the pearl on her head, and after signaling Yingyu to put the ebony box on the small table of Luohan's bed, she began to stare at the ebony box in a daze.

Where would she forget, the white orange jade and the white purple shirt frequently hinted to the old lady Bai in their eyes, they all wanted to ask for this pearl jade head, but in the end, it was the old lady Bai who gave it away.

At that time, Bai Hongjuan saw that Mrs. Bai was reluctant to give her pearl jade head to their granddaughters.

Afterwards, presumably in addition to the innocent and delicate Bai Chengyu, Bai Zishan also saw the reluctance of the old lady Bai earlier, so that later Bai Chengyu would occasionally wrap up two sentences, but Bai Zishan smiled quietly and did not speak. (To be continued.) )
