Chapter 220. period
The delicate spring rain rustled down, and the two people in the pavilion sat opposite each other, although there were many people scattered to serve, but they all retreated far away from the eaves near the rain curtain, barely maintaining a distance that would not be wet by the rain.
It was as if the whole world was hidden from the rain.
Time seemed very quiet, but it couldn't make Jing Wu feel peaceful at all.
There is persistence and forbearance in Bai Xianyu's eyes, as well as a trace of expectation.
Obviously, she wanted to know what had happened to her mother, but at the same time she knew that her mother didn't want her to know.
But this question, Jing Wu obviously can't and can't answer, even if she has to admit that she is aware of the strangeness of the eldest lady.
"How can I give you an answer to something that you are not sure about? I'm only active in the study, and I've not had many opportunities to see the eldest lady these days, but you ask me about your own mother, which makes me scratch my head. ”
Jing Wu's answer was plausible, obviously not in line with Bai Xianyu's expectations.
"yes......"
Bai Xianyu's expression was a little lonely, and after feeling that Jing Wu was politely rejecting this topic, he was silent and did not ask forcibly.
Jing Wu breathed a sigh of relief, and it wasn't until this moment that she really realized that Bai Xianyu was really sensible and had grown a lot.
Jing Wu's gaze softened more and more, mixed with a trace of pity that she didn't even realize herself.
"Don't talk about that......", Jing Wu opened his mouth to interrupt the brief silence.
"It's rare to have time to talk like this alone, let's talk about something else, aren't you curious about how Miss Thirteen has stumbled Miss Nine recently, and aren't you curious about what the Sixth Young Master has done again?"
Jing Wu's voice was much lighter than before, with a girl's unique lightness.
Bai Xianyu is still a little girl after all, and she is a lively little girl.
Since being taught by Si's mother, Bai Xianyu can't wander around like before, and is confined to his own courtyard almost all day long, so naturally the news is relatively closed.
Therefore, even though she is very good at restraining her emotions now, she suddenly heard Jing Wu mention these things that she liked to hear the most in the past, especially her reckless brother.
Bai Xianyu's eyes couldn't help but gradually light up, and the corners of his mouth raised a somewhat "gloating" smile: "Did he get into any trouble again?" It's so big, and it still doesn't stop, and I don't know how to feel sorry for my mother. ”
"As for Bai Xianjiao...... I guess she will definitely have trouble with Sister Jiu, since Sister Jiu moved to Yanhetang, isn't she not eyes to Sister Jiu, and her nose is not nose, for fear that Sister Jiu will compete with her for favor. ”
Jing Wu smiled and continued: "The day before yesterday, didn't the third young master get a month's marriage leave from the clan school, so he was a lot of slack and negligent in his schoolwork, and when he returned to the clan school to go to class, the third young master did not answer when Mr. lectured and asked questions, but at this time, the sixth young master picked up and coaxed that this kind of question was even far inferior to his eighth young master, saying that the third young master, the elder brother, had no achievements, and the eighth young master also followed the coaxing and the sixth young master, and immediately answered the gentleman's question. The third young master was so embarrassed that he became angry on the spot......"
"Hah...... Fighting again, right? Bai Jitong can't beat the sixth brother. ”
"Whether there was a fight or not, I don't know, I know that the sixth young master spent the first half of the month copying books. The third young master hasn't been to the clan school since that day. ”
“……”
The atmosphere began to relax, and Bai Xianyu gradually changed from a listener to a narrator, she told Jing Wu about her learning and growth in the past six months, and Jing Wu also shared some interesting things that had happened recently with Bai Xianyu in a timely manner.
For a while, the atmosphere between the two was also harmonious.
The rain outside the pavilion was still dripping, and the two of them would never have thought that this small talk would become the end of their simple girlhood.
