"Is the hot water for the big girl's bath ready?! Spring Apricot...... The big girl is going to change into her clothes in a while, are you ready?! ”

Chun Xing covered her mouth and smiled: "Grandma, don't worry, Sister Chun Tao is ready!" ”

Chun Tao called a little girl to come over and stare at the bird's nest, and came out of the small kitchen by herself: "I'll go and see how the water temperature is for the bath." ”

Not long after, the Dong family sent Bai Qingyan, who was dressed in military uniform, into the gate of Qinghui Courtyard.

Mama Tong led the maid and wife of Qinghui Courtyard to stand in Qinghui Courtyard, and when she saw Bai Qingyan, she hurriedly saluted: "Congratulations to the eldest girl on her triumphant and safe return!" ”

Chun Tao looked at the big girl in armor, her eyes were sour, and tears fell down.

Bai Qingyan looked at the familiar faces of the courtyard, and there was a smile between her eyebrows: "I am not in these days, I am working hard to guard the Qinghui Courtyard with everyone!" ”

Dong dipped his tears with a handkerchief, and the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were full of smiles: "Okay, go and freshen up." ”

Chun Tao hurriedly stepped forward to take the sun-shooting bow on Bai Qingyan's body: "Big girl, the water has been prepared, and the slave maid is waiting for the big girl to bathe!" ”

She shook Chun Tao's hand and nodded with a smile.

Chun Tao waited for Bai Qingyan to bathe, and when she saw the injury on Bai Qingyan's body, her tears were like broken threads, but because Dong was sitting outside, Chun Tao was afraid that she would make Dong sad, so she bit her lower lip and waited for Bai Qingyan to take a bath.

After bathing, Dong personally twisted Bai Qingyan's hair, and whispered to his daughter about the affairs of the DPRK and China: "Your uncle said that the burning of 100,000 prisoners in Xiliang in the first war in southern Xinjiang this time...... There are already people in the court who want the emperor to punish him severely, but the emperor will leave the excerpt in the middle and not send it, your uncle is afraid that the emperor is waiting for you to come back to punish the crime, and send someone to send a message, so that you must be careful to deal with it. ”

"Don't worry, I know it." Bai Qingyan grabbed her mother's hand and turned her head to look at Dong, "My daughter is not filial, which makes A-Niang worried!" ”

Dong smiled with red eyes, raised his hand and hugged his daughter into his arms: "If your father knew that Ah Bao protected the people of the frontier, he would definitely be proud of Ah Bao, Ah Niang...... I am also proud of Po! ”

Her eyes were red, she gently wrapped her arms around her mother's waist, and rubbed in her mother's arms like a child: "A-Niang, when you are in southern Xinjiang...... Po originally planned to take his father home after the big victory, but Po wanted to ...... Daddy has been concerned about the border people all his life, so he and the generals of Xiaosi and the Bai Family Army quietly buried Daddy in Tianmen Pass. ”

Dong nodded, she understood: "Compared with being buried in the capital, your father must want to protect the people of the Great Jin Dynasty at the border pass." ”

"Okay, let's get a good night's sleep when my hair is dry! At noon, my mother set up a banquet in the bustling city to catch the wind for you and Xiaosi. Dong chuckled.

After Dong left, Bai Qingyan sat in front of the bronze mirror and said to Chun Tao, who was making the bed: "Chun Tao, you send someone to invite Uncle Ping to come over in half an hour, I have something to ask." ”

Chun Tao put down the work in her hand and turned around: "Doesn't the big girl sleep for a while?" ”

"I'll go see Aunt Four." Bai Qing said.

Mama Tong wrung her hair for Bai Qingyan, and looked at Bai Qingyan in the mirror: "Although the eldest girl is dark and thin, her complexion is better than before!" ”

"Yes! Dr. Hong also said that I was afraid it was wrong to let me recuperate before! So...... A loss may turn out to be a gain. She smiled faintly between her eyebrows.

After her hair dried, Mama Tong pulled Bai Qingyan's black and thick hair into a slanted meniscus bun and fixed it with a white hosta. Bai Qingyan was still in filial piety, and changed into a plain white Luo skirt with silver trim, covered with a layer of crescent white semi-transparent silk yarn that was as thin as a clear mist, and the ginkgo biloba leaves were outlined with gold and silver threads on the silk yarn, shining in the light.

Bai Qingyan, who changed back into her daughter's outfit, lost a little bit of the heroic spirit of her dress between her eyebrows, and a little more of a woman's luxurious and soft charm.

"Big girl, Lupin's Nursing Home is already waiting outside the hospital." Spring Peach came in with a curtain.

It was the end of March, and the weather was gradually getting warmer, Bai Qingyan looked at the brazier that was still burning in the room, and said, "Mama asked people to remove the brazier." ”

"Hey!" Mama Tong responded with a smile.

Bai Qingyan took Chun Tao's hand and stepped out of the courtyard door, and Lu Ping stepped forward and saluted: "Big girl." ”

Uncle Ping said as he walked......

"Yes!" Lu Ping bowed his head and followed half a step behind Bai Qingyan.

"How is Ji Tingyu?" Bai Qingyan asked.

Lu Ping pursed his lips, clenched the sword at his waist, and said in a low voice: "Ji Tingyu knew the news of the tragic death of his newlywed wife, so he left the Bai family that night, saying that he wanted to go back to Zhuangzi to worship his wife, and he didn't come back again, I went there in person and told Ji Tingyu that the eldest girl had disposed of the concubine in order to fight for justice for their husband and wife, but Ji Tingyu still didn't want to go back to the Bai family." ”

Bai Qingyan paused, closed his eyes, and walked forward.

The Bai family still chilled Ji Tingyu's heart.

"How is Ji Tingyu's health? The doctor didn't say how much he recovered? ”

"But all poison is damaging to the body, and it must be impossible to fully recover to the way it was before, fortunately, Ji Tingyu is young, if you want to recover well, you have to take care of it for a few years......"

She nodded: "I just came back and had a lot of business, so I will go to see Ji Tingyu in person in two days, and let people take care of Ji Tingyu's life." ”

Ji Tingyu is a benefactor who sacrificed his life for the Bai family, and he should not end up with such a result.

Lu Ping nodded: "Madame also ordered this, big girl rest assured." ”

Tomorrow there will be a banquet in the emperor's palace, and the next thing is the emperor's birthday, but Ji Tingyu and Bai Qingyan still have to find time to meet in person.

Lingyun, the eldest girl who was waiting beside the fourth lady, had just come back from the kitchen with rock sugar stewed pears for the fourth lady, and she saw from a distance that the eldest girl Bai Qingyan seemed to be coming in the direction of their Lishui Garden. ”

As soon as Mama Guan arrived at the gate of the courtyard, Bai Qingyan had already arrived with Chun Tao, she turned her head and instructed Lingyun: "Go and report to the fourth lady, the eldest girl is here......"

"Yes!" Lingyun responded and left.

Mama Guan took a few steps forward: "The eldest girl just came back, why don't you take a break?" ”

Bai Qingyan smiled at Mama Guan: "What about the fourth aunt?" ”

Mama Guan led the way, and said that the fourth lady was slightly worried: "The fourth lady has had a slight cough recently, but she refuses to use medicine, so the old slave told Lingyun to go to the kitchen to get rock sugar and stewed pears back, and she is preparing to use it at this time." ”

Lingyun, who had already passed through the fourth lady, stood at the door, and greeted Bai Qing with words and deeds, and then opened the curtain: "Big girl, please." ”

As soon as she entered the door, through the jade screen of the hundred birds under the silk tent with entwined branches and lotus patterns, she saw the fourth aunt wearing a light green embroidered cloud water pattern dress sitting on the mahogany soft couch near the window, leaning on the small square table of golden silk nanmu, and a thin quilt embroidered with diamond patterns on her legs.

The fourth lady, Wang's cheeks were thin, her deeply sunken eye sockets were marked with a circle of dark blue, and her spirit was obviously weak.
