Chapter Seventy-Six: The Cloak for Him
The first day of the Lunar New Year was spent in silence.
Mrs. Bai was busy walking between relatives and friends, and Bai Zhen'er sometimes saw invitations piled up on Mrs. Bai's desk in the main courtyard.
"Mother, drink tea." Bai Zhen'er walked to Mrs. Bai with a teacup.
"Well, where to put it." Mrs. Bai spoke, and then did not raise her head.
"Mother, rest for a while." Bai Zhen'er still couldn't help but speak.
"It's fine." Mrs. Bai looked at Bai Zhen'er with a smile, and then continued, "I've been a little busy these days, if you have nothing to do, help watch Brother Fan'er and Sister Chao'er." Tomorrow I will take you out to eat and drink. ”
"Good mother." Bai Zhen'er saw that Mrs. Bai didn't say anything, she didn't linger longer, and then turned around and went to the Qilin Courtyard.
When she was fine, Bai Zhen'er stayed with the two little broken children, and the Qilin Courtyard finally regained its calm, and Bai Zhen'er also found a reason to send away the personal servant beside Brother Fan. After all, Brother Fan also put his mind on the right path, I heard that the eldest brother and the second brother wanted to win fame, and then Brother Fan also wanted to study hard.
"Second sister, do you think I'm a flower?" Sister Chao took the needle and thread in her hand and showed it to Bai Zhen'er.
Bai Zhen'er glanced at the handkerchief, and then said, "It's okay, Sister Chao'er is not in a hurry, study slowly." "Recently, Sister Chao was learning embroidery, Bai Zhen'er took a look, although it was a little miserable, but it was still okay for such a small child.
Sister Chao'er, who was praised, pursed her mouth, and silently next to her, slowly embroidering flowers.
"Miss." Xiao Zi walked over at this time.
"What?"
"Miss, the cloak is ready, I've put it away."
"Are you done?" Bai Zhen'er sat up, one hand slowly touched her sister's bun, she turned her head to look at the two little people and said, "Sister has left beforehand, you have to be obedient." ”
"Okay." The two villains looked at Bai Zhen'er, looking obedient. It looks very cute.
Bai Zhen'er stood up and walked out of the Qilin courtyard, "Did anyone see that cloak?" ”
"No, I didn't. Miss rest assured. ”
"Yes." Bai Zhen'er nodded, and the three of them then walked towards the courtyard.
The cloak was originally for the recent Chinese New Year. Then the house rewarded it, and there were also good skins sent from the second room. Finally, with the fox fur she had gotten outside, it was just right to make a cape.
Bai Zhen'er remembered that she was trapped in the pavilion on the top of the mountain in Daming Temple, and it was that person who lent her a cloak. The cloak was made of snow demon skin, and it was extremely precious. I don't want to be washed by her in the end. Bai Zhen'er has always remembered this matter.
Back in her yard, Bai Zhen'er withdrew the rest of the irrelevant subordinates, she took out the snow-white cloak, if this was worn on that person, it would seem that the person was getting colder and colder.
Looking at it, Bai Zhen'er felt that there seemed to be something missing from this cloak, "The needle and thread." ”
Bai Zhen'er turned out to be needle-and-thread, and finally simply embroidered a few reeds on the collar, so at a glance, Bai Zhen'er felt better.
"Put it away." Bai Zhen'er handed the cloak to Xiao Zi. "Change clothes, let's go out. Xiao Zi, you stay here, if your mother asks, you know what to say. ”
"Yes, Miss." Xiao Zi nodded, she glanced at Xiao Tao, Xiao Tao naturally knew the meaning in Xiao Zi's eyes, nothing more than to take good care of Miss. Xiao Tao also replied with a reassuring expression.
Bai Zhen'er changed to a low-key service, and then only took Xiao Tao with her, and went out in a car.
During the Chinese New Year, there are still a lot of people on the street. There are also quite a few of those who sell things.
The carriage drove to the middle of the street, and the coachman turned into an alley, and the coachman was a man in the white mirror, so he naturally knew what to do.
There was a moment of silence in the carriage. Finally stopped.
Bai Zhen'er lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage. She walked in front, Xiao Tao walked behind with the box, and the master and servant entered the backyard.
But this time, Xiao Si also waited for a while before appearing, he looked at Bai Zhen'er with a smile and said, "Miss Bai didn't say hello when she came over, my master happened to have something to do." It's not there these days. ”
"It's fine." Originally, she was busy during this time, Bai Zhen'er didn't want to meet Shang Ying back this time, she glanced at Xiaozi and said, "This is a gift I sent to Shang Gongzi, thinking that I had damaged Gongzi's cloak before, I have been thinking about making one for Gongzi." I was finally able to do it a few days ago, so I sent it over today. ”
Xiao Si glanced at the box on the table, and then said, "It's unfortunate today, the master is not here." But it doesn't matter, I'll keep it well, and I'll tell my master when he comes back. ”
"That's very good, then thank you."
"What are you doing here, it's all acquaintances who don't get in the way." Xiao Si said without minding at all.
Bai Zhen'er glanced at Xiao Si with a smile, then stood up, "Then don't bother." ”
"Don't bother, don't bother." Xiao Si looked at Bai Zhen'er with a smile, thinking to himself that even if you stay here, no one will be able to catch you away.
gave away something, Bai Zhen'er can be regarded as having a matter in her heart. She sat in the carriage, leaning on the carriage, thinking that she had chosen this day to come, and did not expect to meet the man.
Soon after the year, it will be the ceremony, and Mrs. Bai will definitely discipline herself more and more, and the days of going out will become less. has become a girl who has become a girl, and it is indispensable to talk about marriage, maybe after this time, it will be difficult to have the opportunity to meet.
The carriage moved forward slowly, taking people with them, but it couldn't take away a few thoughts.
――
At the end of the year, Bai Zhen'er really went out with her, ate a lot of banquets, and met a lot of girls and ladies of the same age.
Bai Zhen'er has never participated in these banquets, and she still finds it a little interesting, at least those parents are short, which really makes people feel down-to-earth.
Then on this day of going out, the family affairs of the eldest sister Bai Min are slowly beginning to settle.
Mrs. Bai went out and selected some people for her niece, those were all people who fell in love with Bai Min outside, and Mrs. Bai didn't make a decision, and then gave all of them to Mrs. Bai.
Mrs. Bai took a lot of thought to choose, and in the end, she left three candidates, and she was still wavering in the middle. Then I couldn't, but I told the old lady again and let the old lady make up her mind.
The old lady looked at the three candidates, one was the second son of Yongbo Mansion, the eldest son of the Liu family of the Hanmen official family, and the other was actually from the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion. Only then did the old lady speak: "What's going on with this Weiyuan Marquis Mansion?" ”
Mrs. Bai immediately replied, "It was when I was eating and drinking outside, that Mrs. Wei Yuanhou fell in love with Min Min, and then she made a fuss about me here." (To be continued.) )
