Chapter 10: Ominous
"Oh." Bai Qiao withdrew his gaze and continued to watch the workers at work.
Some of the servants left, and some came, and after watching for a long time and seeing nothing, they left.
This girl from the Bai family is probably idle and has nothing to do, they are different, and they are not worth it at all, and they have to run home twice!
It was late in the dark, and it was not until the beginning of the unitary hour that the workers left one after another. Bai Qiao put down the fan in his hand and circled around the room twice, when Shuang'er happened to come over and smiled and said, "Girl! It's time for dinner! If you want to see it, come back tomorrow. ”
"Well, go back." Bai Qiao nodded, picked up the small pestle and handed it to Bi Tao.
"The girl always runs here, what's so nice about it? Speak it out too for the servant to take a good look at. Frost followed behind Bai Qiao, quipping.
Bai Qiao curled his lips slightly, but did not speak.
Bi Tao pouted: "I don't know why, miss, do you miss the time when you lived here?" ”
Miss? Bai Qiao shook his head, "No. "She has amnesia and has nothing to miss.
"Is there anything nice about that young lady?"
"Lively." Bai Qiao thought for a moment and replied.
Frost's eyes widened and she snorted and laughed, "The girl is really good at joking." ”
"Do people outside say I'm an ominous person?"
Shuang'er's laughter suddenly stopped, her little face was instantly full of horror, and her voice trembled: "Girl? ”
"I listened to those people." Bai Qiao pointed to the way he came.
Shuang'er's heart is even higher. Those people are really getting more and more ignorant of the rules, and they can say this kind of thing to the girl? Gritting her teeth, Frost didn't say anything. She couldn't answer the girl's question, and she didn't dare to answer.
"It takes a lot of evil to attract thunder." Bai Qiao muttered to himself, and didn't really wait for Shuang'er to answer, his feet didn't stop, and he walked farther and farther.
Frost bit her lip, lifted the hem of her skirt, and trotted all the way up to catch up.
After getting along for a few days, Shuang'er thinks that this girl is very easy to get along with, she says everything you say, but it is also very difficult to get along with, because she can't figure out her thoughts.
It is still three dishes, one soup and one staple food, and the food is silent, except for the frost to pick up the vegetables and occasionally say two words, Bai Qiao does not say a word. It was still early after eating, and it was not completely dark, so Bai Qiao sat down in the courtyard and went back to the main room. After all, it's summer, there are too many mosquitoes and flies, and the breeze is sticky. Mama Zhang had already prepared the water, and Bai Qiao took a short rest and went to bathe. Bi Tao wanted to follow up, but Bai Qiao refused, so she could only wait outside. Frost Dong'er began to tidy up the house, light incense, and lay out the mattress by the way.
"Hasn't the girl always been a big talker?" Frost caught the air and talked to Bi Tao while making the bed.
Bi Tao thought for a moment, "It's okay." "In the past, girls didn't like to talk much, but they were afraid that others would bully them, so they didn't dare. But now it seems that she really doesn't like to talk, and even when she tells Miss, Miss can't say a few words.
"Sister Bi Tao should be the one who knows the girl best, you don't know it, so we don't know it." Dong'er smiled and lit the incense. After smelling it, he said: "This incense was specially sent by the eldest lady, and it is said that it is blended with more than ten kinds of spices, which is extremely expensive~"
"Miss is a serious official lady, sooner or later she will have to return to Jiangling Mansion, and she will only use it better and better in the future." raised her head, Bi Tao was afraid that Bai Qiao would be looked down upon, so she quickly raised her voice.
Dong'er stuck out her tongue, quickly put down the work in her hand and pulled Bi Tao's sleeve: "Yes, yes, Sister Bi Tao, don't be angry." I didn't mean that, I just said this incense is good. ”
Bi Tao pouted, where had she smelled any incense in the seven years of the Su family, Bi Tao just thought it smelled good, as for how expensive it was, she didn't know anything.
"The girl is the eldest girl of the General's Mansion, and she naturally wants to go back in the future, we don't know if there is any luck to go back with the girl~" Shuang'er helped on the side, and a word resolved Bi Tao's awkwardness.
When Bai Qiao came out, his hair was wrapped in a cotton towel, and he had changed into moon-white silk pajamas, and he was a little more lazy than usual and leaned on a low chair.
Shuang'er put down the work in her hand and hurriedly stepped forward to help Bai Qiao dry his hair.
Bai Qiao let her move, leaning against her and squinting her eyes.
"The girl's hair is so good, black and shiny. After a while, the maid will roll up the girl, it will be loose, and it will be comfortable to sleep. ”
"Hmm." Bai Qiao hummed nonchalantly.
"Cui'er beside the eldest lady came over just now and said that Haoyue Pavilion will send a new hairpin style on the twelfth of every month, so that the girl will go too."
"Okay."
"Do you have a book?"
Shuang'er had long been accustomed to Bai Qiao only saying one word when he spoke, and when she heard something else, her hand curling her hair stopped slightly, "Does the girl want to read?" ”
"Hmm."
"What book does the girl want to read? Those formal schools are still books? The things in school are all in the eldest brother's study, and it's easier to find a book. ”
"Just write a book."
Shuang'er nodded, and her voice was crisp, "Take it to the girl." After saying that, he left in a hurry.
Watching Shuang'er come out of the yard, Bi Tao pouted and complained. Since the young lady lost her memory, her behavior and habits have changed a lot. Not to mention reading, pen, ink, paper, and inkstone are things that I would not have thought about at all before.
"Miss, you've never read before." Bi Tao shook her hair apart a little and twisted it carefully.
Bai Qiao hummed, "Then can I write?" ”
Bi Tao thought about it seriously and shook her head: "When the maid followed Miss, I didn't know if Miss could write, but in the Su family, Miss hadn't written for seven years. ”
Bai Qiao nodded. That is, it will not be written.
Shuang'er went out for two tea hours and came back with two books.
"Girl, can you see this? If you don't like it, I'll look for someone else tomorrow. "The main problem is that the Su family is a merchant family, and there are really not many books. Even if there is, most of them are the eldest brother's, and they can't be taken outside.
Bai Qiao took it, the book was a little old, and when it was opened, it was a page of paintings, and there were not a few words, about what they looked at and played, but it was a book, enough to pass the time.
Shuang'er watched Bai Qiao open the book and began to read, took two quick steps and lit a candle, picked out the wick, and the tongue of fire suddenly soared, and was sent to the table in front of Bai Qiao" The girl looked carefully. ”
"Okay."
Tonight is the night of Bi Tao again, and Frost saw that the time was late, so she bent her knees and withdrew.
