Chapter 161: Lazy
When the doorman who hadn't closed his eyes all night saw Li Jia, he couldn't help but panic and said, "Watch...... My cousin is back......"
The lord told him to keep an eye on the gate and pass it on when the cousin returned home, for which he kept watch all night.
Li Jia glanced at the doorman, his face was not wavering, and he lifted the corner of his skirt and walked into the mansion quickly.
The other subordinates in the house hurriedly told the master about the cousin's return.
Bai Yitian, who had just changed into an official uniform, was about to go out at this time, and was relieved when he heard Li Jia come back.
But because he didn't have time to visit Li Jia again, he had to say to his wife: "Tong'er, you go to Yuming Garden to see Jia'er." ”
Qi Tong hurriedly said: "Don't worry, master." ”
Although Li Jia has returned, no one knows what she has been through.
No matter what kind of someone's daughter is, she didn't return all night, and it didn't sound good to spread it.
So although Bai Yitian sent someone to find Li Jia last night, he also sent people who were trustworthy in the house, so he didn't have to worry that this matter would be chewed on the root of his tongue.
Bai Yitian, who was in a hurry to go out, didn't expect that any girl who knew something should explain the cause and effect of the matter to the elders as soon as possible, instead of waiting for the elders to ask.
Of course, Qi Tong thought of this, and he lost his affection for Li Jia even more.
It's a shame that she used to think that Li Jia was sensible.
The news of Li Jia's return soon spread to Tassel Garden.
"Girl, the maid heard that the cousin has returned." Asaaki stared at her dark eyes in surprise.
Sure enough, the girl guessed it!
Bai Suxin, who was having breakfast, put the chopsticks on the table, picked up the handkerchief and gently wiped the oil stains from the corners of his mouth, and asked unhurriedly, "How did you come back?" ”
"I came back on my own." Asaka said with a serious face.
Bai Suxin hooked her lips and smiled, she knew that this cousin had planned it.
Intuitively, Li Jia's disappearance this time must be related to her marriage.
Bai Suxin doesn't think that Li Jia is the kind of woman who is willing to be mediocre, as for the future, let's wait and see.
"My cousin is in the Peony Garden now?" Bai Suxin asked seemingly casually.
Qianqiu shook her head and sighed: "The cousin girl didn't go to the Peony Garden, but went back to the Jade Ming Garden directly, and she didn't even send someone to the Peony Garden to spread the word. ”
Even the little girl didn't agree with Li Jia's approach.
Bai Suxin frowned, she didn't expect Li Jia to act like this.
Although she has not treated Li Jia well before, Li Jia has always acted in moderation.
Don't say that there will be no such thing as not returning at night, even if it does happen, Li Jia will ask the elders for the first time and explain the reason.
Now that Li Jia is unashamed, it shows that she has found a way out.
It seems that she has found the mountain she can rely on.
I just don't know who Li Jia found.
"Send someone to pay attention to the dynamics of the Jade Tea Garden, and if there is something to do, come over in time." Bai Suxin commanded.
"Yes."
Even if Li Jia doesn't go to the Peony Garden, with the temperament of his father and aunt, he will chase after him to take a look.
After all, she didn't return overnight, and she was a girl who lived in the Bai family and didn't leave the pavilion, so if something really happened, the elders of the Bai family couldn't care about it.
My father has already gone out at this time, and I am afraid that my aunt will go to Yuming Garden to visit Li Jia in a short time.
Bai Suxin wanted to see what Li Jia would do next.
Although she was disappointed in this cousin, she was still very curious about what kind of medicine was sold in Li Jia's gourd.
Not long after, Qi Tong instructed the maidservant Ah Xing to prepare ginger soup and came to the door of Yuming Garden.
Seeing this, Ah Zi hurriedly rushed out, kneeling on the ground with a nervous expression, "Big lady, my cousin has already fallen asleep." ”
Qi Tong paused, what does this mean?
"Ah Zi, what happened?" Ah Xing reprimanded.
Ah Zi didn't dare to raise his head, and replied honestly: "The maid doesn't know where the cousin girl has gone." This morning the cousin suddenly came back alone, and as soon as she entered the courtyard, she instructed the maid to prepare hot water. After bathing, he said that he was tired, and now he has fallen asleep. ”
Qi Tong was a little unhappy, thinking to himself what this cousin meant?
If you don't return all night, you don't explain the situation to the elders, and the elders come to visit in person and have a closed door.
Does he understand the rules or not, doesn't it mean that Li Jia has received a good education since childhood?
It's a pity that no matter what, she can't be as knowledgeable as a junior.
Qi Tong calmly ordered: "Take the ginger soup to the cousin, I'll go back first." ”
"Madame!" Ah Xing shouted indignantly.
She has been with Madame for many years, where has Madame ever been so angry?
If it weren't for Madame's face, she would have rushed in and dragged her cousin up.
Qi Tong pursed his lips and smiled, "Let's go." ”
Ah Xing reluctantly handed the food box containing ginger soup to Ah Zi, and hurriedly kept up with Qi Tong's pace.
"Congratulations to the eldest lady." Ah Zi bowed his head and saluted.
It wasn't until Qi Tong walked away that Ah Zi breathed a sigh of relief.
The cousin girl did go too far this time, but fortunately, the eldest lady is a generous person to her subordinates, otherwise she would definitely have to be punished.
The news that Qi Tong had eaten the closed door soup soon spread to the Tassel Garden.
"No wonder the girl ordered to send someone to guard the Jade Tea Garden, and sure enough, there was new news, the eldest lady went to visit the cousin in person, and she didn't even see anyone!" Qianqiu pouted, even more puzzled by Li Jia's behavior.
Cousin, is this crazy?
Bai Suxin snorted coldly, this cousin really didn't disappoint her.
Even if she finds a future to rely on, what can she do, isn't she still living in the Bai family now?
Before he walked out of the Bai family, he began to make faces at the people of the Bai family.
Bai Suxin got up leisurely and ordered: "Prepare some soothing spices, let's go to the Jade Tea Garden." ”
"Girl?" Qianqiu didn't understand why the girl was going to see her cousin at this time.
Even the eldest lady is closed, and the girl may not be able to see her cousin when she goes.
Bai Suxin gently patted Qianqiu's shoulder and said softly: "It's because I expected that she wouldn't see me, so I was going." ”
Qianqiu was stunned suddenly, the girl did it on purpose?
"Today I went, and she did not see me, and she was embarrassed to ask me again for anything in the future. Even if she had the cheekiness to come to me, I could have refused this time with the reason of being closed. ”
"The girl actually thought of this layer, and the maid went to prepare." Qianqiu immediately retreated to prepare spices.
Bai Suxin sat in the room, thinking about Li Jia's behavior these days.
It wasn't until she remembered the private collection of the invitation card to the Zhennan Wangfu that she realized that maybe the person Li Jiapan attached was Sima Chengwen.
Qianqiu put the prepared spices on a tray and walked over and said, "Girl, it's ready." ”
Bai Suxin smiled back and ordered: "Go and send a message to Tu Wu, and ask him when the prince of Zhennan returned to the house last night." ”
