"Be careful." Bai Jing suddenly got up and stepped forward, and the short dagger in his hand was close to the insect that stayed in Bai Zhen'er's hand.

Seeing this, Bai Zhen'er immediately removed her hand to protect the insect on her hand, "Big brother, what are you doing here, it won't hurt me." ”

"I said White Pearl, you take these things in a daze, in case you are bitten to death, I am not responsible." When Bai Jing saw the insect crawling on her hand just now, her face changed in fright.

Bai Zhen'er naturally knew why her eldest brother did this, she put the worm back in the box, "Big brother, this is not a bad thing, do you remember the little girl named Zhuoma who saved me last time." That's what she gave me, it's what they have, it's healing. ”

"Is it so amazing? Is it a Gu worm? Bai Jing was still a little unconvinced, although he later investigated the pharmacy, and the girl was just a little girl from the foreign side. But how can such a small thing cure a disease?

"Well, Dr. Shang said that this insect can distinguish poisonous things in the world, and it can shed its skin once a year, and the skin can be used in medicine to relieve all kinds of poisons."

"And what are you going to do? Don't tell me that you're going to raise such a little thing. "Bai Jing understands now that this little sister is looking for her own sake.

"Well, that's why I came to discuss with my eldest brother."

"It's simple, you just throw this thing to me to raise, or let a special person raise it."

"No, I'm going to raise it myself." Her tone was categorical.

"Then, then there is no way."

"Big brother~, you must have a way, help me." She can't, and in the end, she can only be coquettish and cute.

"Well~. Still can't help it. "Uncle Bai is still as steady as a mountain.

"Big brother, big brother, good big brother, big brother Bai, Uncle Bai."

"A few more good big brothers?" Bai Jing deliberately raised one ear.

Bai Zhen'er glanced at Bai Jing speechlessly, and finally couldn't open her mouth: "Good big brother, good big brother, good big brother." ”

"That's pretty much it." Bai Jing sat upright and looked at the wooden box, "It's a little difficult for you to do this, but it's not impossible." There are two reasons why you are not allowed to raise it, one is that you are afraid that this thing is poisonous and harmful and will hurt you. ”

"It's not poisonous, it's mild, and it can cure and detoxify." Bai Zhen'er hurriedly explained.

"This is easy to say, just find someone to identify it, this second, I am afraid that in the future, it will be rumored that the eldest lady of the Bai family likes Gu worms and has a weird personality or something."

"I don't care what it is." She glanced at the white mirror, and she didn't care about these things in the first place.

"You don't care, but Mother won't allow this to happen."

This is the truth, what she is afraid of is that she will not be able to pass the level of Madame Bai.

"But it's not impossible." Bai Jing glanced at Bai Zhen'er and continued, "As long as I say to the outside world that I raised it, it's just that it will stay with you for detoxification, and if you enter the palace in the future, you can also use this thing." ”

Entering the palace? That's right. She knew the darkness of that place, and the calculations were everywhere and could not be prevented.

When it came to the topic of entering the palace, the atmosphere also became a little low.

After a while, Bai Jing finally raised his head to look at the delicate and weak little girl in front of him, and grinned: "It's okay, there will be a big brother to support you in the future." ”

Bai Zhen'er also smiled at him. She knew that since Bai Jing said this, she would do it.

However, she also knew that after saying this, her eldest brother might not be able to be so free in the future, at least not be able to do what he likes, such as doing business. Bai Jing likes businessmen, and she knows it.

If she enters the palace one day, she will marry into the royal family or a powerful family no matter what. According to the current status of the Bai family, it is not enough to see that if Bai Jing wants to support his family, he must give up what he is doing now, go to the imperial examination, and then enter the official career.

Because, only in this way, can he really stand behind her and support her.

It's just that she won't choose the same path, and she has been thinking about what she will do after entering the palace. One qiē can only be realized one by one after entering the palace.

Bai Zhen'er finally returned to her yard with the wooden box, and sent someone to take the ice cubes from the storehouse and put them all in a large plate.

After she opened the box, she still didn't see the sound and shadow of the bug, feeling that the bug likes dark places and always avoids it. She simply reached out and shook it, and the fat bug just fell into the ice.

Instantly, it felt like the insects were burrowing in the ice. She reached for a stick of herb and said to the little thing in the ice, "Little thing come out." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the little insect crawl out, opened his mouth and began to bite the herb. In a few moments, the herb was eaten. Seeing its greedy appearance, Bai Zhen'er took some herbs for it to eat.

"I say, little thing, when will you recognize me as Lord?" She poked her finger with a needle, then reached out and dropped a drop of blood in front of the little bug.

As a result, until the little worm finished eating the herbs, he didn't see the little worm touch the blood.

"Little things." Bai Zhen'er couldn't in the end, so she locked it in the box, and then put the box on ice.

Bai Zhen'er remembered that she used to raise a white snake in the palace named Qilin. Later, after being raised, it disappeared one day. She searched the entire palace but couldn't find it, and in the end, she didn't see the Kirin come back until she died.

When she came back to her senses, she looked at her grandmother and said to the maid, "You should take good care of it in the future, and it is best to watch it and not let it run away." "This little creature hasn't confessed to the Lord yet, and I can't be sure it will disappear that day.

The maids and grandmothers all agreed with some reluctance, and it was obvious that this little pet was not very popular with everyone.

――

After dawn the next day, Bai Zhen'er was summoned by Madame Bai.

The weather was fine, and Bai Zhen'er left the insects in her yard and let the little maid take care of them.

As soon as she walked into the house in the main courtyard, Bai Zhen'er saw the familiar grandmother in the house, the last time she came to the palace to teach her the rules, Mama Qin.

"Hello mother." Since there are outsiders here, Bai Zhen'er can't be as casual as usual. It's a proper salute, please.

"Since you're here, I haven't seen your Aunt Qin soon." Madame Bai said.

"Mama'an." Now that Mama Qin is here, it seems that her entry into the palace is ironclad. I just don't know what time it is.

"Miss Bai." Aunt Qin still had that expression.

"Sister Zhen, Aunt Qin will teach you the rules in the future, which is no better than before. But listen to your aunt's teachings. Madame Bai's tone was tinged with sternness.

"That's nature, mother, don't worry." No matter how much she wants to play and forget the old things in the palace, she can't forget the things engraved in her bones.

After Mrs. Bai finished teaching Bai Zhen'er, she then looked at Aunt Qin and said, "Auntie, Sister Zhen will be handed over to Aunt Zhen in the future, and I ask Aunt to bother more." ”

"Madame, please rest assured." Aunt Qin nodded towards Madam Bai.

"Someone, take my aunt to the yard where she lives."

After watching Aunt Qin leave, an inexplicable look flashed in Bai Zhen'er's eyes, what is going to come is always coming.

"Zhen'er."

Hearing Madame Bai's voice in a different tone, Bai Zhen'er came back to her senses, as if she understood what Madame Bai was going to say. Sure enough, in the next sentence, I heard Mrs. Bai talk about the bugs she got back yesterday.

"Mother, that's what Dolma gave me. I thought that since I could identify poisons and detoxify, I wanted to raise them myself. ”

"No, how can a boudoir woman raise such a mess." Madame White's attitude is obvious.

She knew that Madame Bai would not agree, but she just needed to dispel her mother's suspicions. She looked at Madame Bai and said, "Mother, it's good for the eldest brother to say that he raised it, and I think it may be useful to bring this into the palace in the future." ”

Speaking of bringing it into the palace, it can be regarded as speaking to Madame Bai's heart. Madame Bai pondered for a moment, she had known the so-called effect of this insect in advance, and if it was true, it might not be impossible to keep it.

Bai Zhen'er saw Madame Bai's attitude hesitantly, and knew that what she had just said was useful. In fact, on the one hand, she really wants to raise a small thing, and other effects are not the most important thing for her.

"Ma'am." Master Bai walked in at this time, smiling.

"Why did the master come back?"

"Madame, hurry up and get ready to greet the Scarlet Bamboo Chief." Bai Yuan met the Scarlet Bamboo Daoist on the way, and despite the invitation of his old friend, he hurriedly welcomed the Daoist back.

Scarlet Bamboo Road Chief? After the last Lantern Festival, I didn't see the Taoist chief appear, but I didn't expect it to appear now.
