Chapter 52: Little Rivals
On the night when Bai Ying came to live in Baifu, she was originally going to have dinner together according to the rules.
But because of the unpleasant noon, Bai Yitian just took Qi Tong and Yulan to accompany Bai Ying's family to dinner.
The juniors of the Bai family all prepared meals from the large kitchen and distributed them to each courtyard according to the custom.
During the dinner when Bai Yitian accompanied Bai Ying to dinner, Xue Nan specially mentioned Bai Haozhi's going to apologize.
"Haozhi is really sensible, although he collided with his mother in the main hall during the day, but in the afternoon, he immediately rushed over to apologize to his mother. It's a pity that the mother and son were taking a lunch break and didn't see Haozhi's sincere look. ”
Bai Ying pursed her lips with disgust, thinking that her son-in-law was really good at talking, how could Bai Haozhi's appearance sincerely apologize to her?
This kind of talk is just coaxing people, so she can't believe it!
Bai Yitian's thoughts suddenly drifted away, thinking that although his eldest son was a little stubborn, he was actually very obedient.
It's just that...... Didn't he order his third daughter to go with him?
"Ahem, cough," Bai Yitian cleared his throat, "Did Zhi'er go in person?" ”
Xue Nan hurriedly said: "Yes, Haozhi came alone, and he didn't even bring a subordinate." ”
Bai Yitian almost squirted out the tea he had just entered, but the third daughter really didn't go!
In the past, he always felt that only the third daughter in the family made him the most relieved, but he didn't expect that the third daughter, who has always been sensible, would talk back to the eldest sister in public.
It seems that he is going to find time to talk to his third daughter.
"Is there something wrong with my uncle?" Xue Nan was surprised when he saw that Bai Yitian was almost out of shape.
Bai Yitian made a calm and breezy appearance and said, "It's okay, but I didn't expect Zhi'er to be so sensible now." ”
Regarding the matter of ordering the third daughter to apologize to the eldest sister, Bai Yitian would not say it in public.
After all, the third daughter didn't come, and if she said it, it would only make her sister unhappy.
Besides, what if she said it in front of the eldest sister, and the third daughter is still unwilling to apologize?
No matter what, it was his old father who was in trouble.
After dinner, Qi Tong served Bai Yitian to wash up and go to bed.
In the bedroom, Qi Tong looked at Bai Yitian with a solemn face and asked, "Master, is there anything to worry about?" ”
Bai Yitian frowned and asked, "You can see everything?" ”
Qi Tong raised the corners of his lips, thinking to himself, can you not see that the old man has written on his face?
Qi Tong bowed his head slightly and asked, "Is the master so worried because of his heart?" ”
Bai Yitian looked at the wife in front of him who knew his intentions, and unconsciously smiled with satisfaction.
"Xin'er, this girl doesn't know what's wrong today, she actually talks to her eldest sister like that in public. It's really that the older I get, the more ignorant I become, how can I marry her off with peace of mind? Bai Yitian couldn't help but complain.
"Then stay for a few more years, anyway, my heart is still small." Qi Tong said with a smile.
"It's not small...... Bai Yitian originally wanted to say that Xin'er was almost an old girl before she got married at this age, but suddenly thought that the wife in front of her was already twenty-two years old when she married him, and she didn't dare to say anything more.
"I see everything in my eyes today, and this girl in my heart is holding grievances for her second sister. Although the method is a little inappropriate, she is also really interested in Ru'er. It would be inappropriate for the lord to punish his heart for this. Qi Tong took the opportunity to comfort.
Bai Yitian sighed leisurely and thought back to what the third daughter said when she was in the front hall during the day.
It seems that it was really because the eldest sister said that the second daughter, and the third daughter was angry and talked back to the eldest sister.
The third daughter and the second daughter are really sisters.
Even if he thought so in his heart, Bai Yitian couldn't say it.
After all, no matter what, it is indeed wrong for the third daughter to talk back to her aunt.
He is also a sister and brother with his eldest sister, they are sisters and brothers of the same mother.
Bai Yitian's tone softened slightly: "No matter what, I still have to have a good chat with Xin'er, but I can't let this originally clever and sensible girl go astray." ”
"Master, you have to pay attention to your tone and attitude, don't hurt the little girl's heart." Qi Tong reminded carefully.
Bai Yitian took Qi Tong's hand and said tenderly: "Xiao'er really thinks about her daughter everywhere, and she is very comforted by her husband. ”
Qi Tong suddenly blushed to the root of his ears, quickly withdrew his hand, and shouted in a coquettish voice: "Master-"
The couple is flirting in their way at this time.
When the atmosphere was thick, there was a knock at the door.
Qi Tong slapped his face lightly twice, trying to make himself appear sober, and then walked over quickly and opened the door.
At the door of the room, the nurse was standing outside the door looking at Qi Tong in embarrassment.
"Nurse? What's the matter? Qi Tong asked in surprise.
The nurse bit her lip lightly, and said with difficulty: "Disturb Madame, it's the little boy who is crying and looking for you, saying that he won't sleep if you don't go over." I have no choice but to come and disturb you......"
Bai Yitian, who was sitting in the room, got up suddenly and said angrily: "That little cub is the least worry-free, I still don't believe it, if I can't see his mother, I won't be able to sleep all night?" ”
"Let's go back first." Qi Tong said softly.
"But where is the little boy?" The nurse frowned.
Qi Tong glanced at the nurse, and the nurse left with confidence.
Qi Tong turned around and walked to Bai Yitian's side, with a smile on his eyebrows: "Master don't want to be angry with Zi'er, he is just a little doll less than two years old." ”
In front of his wife, Bai Yitian was not shrewd in the past, but he was more like a child and said: "I think he did it on purpose!" ”
Qi Tong rubbed Bai Yitian's head like a child, then picked up the cloak hanging next to him and put it on his body, and said unhurriedly: "Master rest early tonight, I will go to coax Zi'er to fall asleep and then I will fall asleep there." ”
What can Bai Yitian say, his son robbed him of his wife, he can't fight with a child, right?
But he really wants his wife to accompany him.
However, when the words came to his lips, he changed into a different look.
"After taking care of Zi'er, remember to rest early, your own body is the most important."
When Bai Yitian heard himself say such things, he really wished he could slap his face twice.
Look at what he said, he clearly didn't want his wife to go.
Qi Tong smiled sweetly and explained: "Master should also rest early, remember to extinguish the candlestick before going to bed, but don't fall asleep in a daze like last time and almost knock over the candlestick, that would be terrible." ”
When you are half-asleep and half-awake, if you knock over the candlestick and fail to notice it in time, it is easy to be trapped in the sea of fire without knowing it.
Bai Yitian's heart warmed when he heard this, and he thought that it would be better if his wife could stay with him.
Qi Tong continued: "Master, I'm going to take care of Zi'er, Master must remember to turn off the lights." ”
Bai Yitian looked at Qi Tong's departing back stupidly, until the door was firmly closed.
Bai Yitian came back to his senses at this time, this little demon king of the mixed world must have come to rob him of his wife!
