Chapter 369: Lest You Regret
Xiao Dong took out the silver ticket from his arms as he spoke, and the thick pile hurt Bai Lingchen's head when he saw it, he lowered his voice and gritted his teeth, "I asked you to take the money from the cabinet, but I didn't let you take it all out, don't tell me that you have forgotten how to spend money in the palace for so many years?" ”
Xiao Dong pursed his lips, his fingers nervously pinched the silver ticket in his hand, and his voice was like a mosquito, "I saw that the master's yard was too broken, and I was afraid that bad people would steal it as soon as I went out, so after thinking about it for a long time, I decided to bring all the money out." ”
Bai Lingchen was speechless for a while, looking at the nervous and scared appearance of the person in front of him, he also wondered if he was too serious, he stood up straight and his tone was a little looser, but he still frowned, "Don't worry about this kind of thing in the future, no one in this place dares to steal from me." ”
"I know," Xiao Dong's voice became quieter, and he lowered his head to stare at the silver ticket in his hand, almost with the word cramped on the top of his head.
Bai Lingchen couldn't bear to blame anymore, he only felt familiar when he heard her voice, so he asked, "You said that you are so handsome?" ”
Xiao Dong nodded lightly, "I don't want the master to be unable to get off the stage, so I want to help you out of the siege." ”
She did it, but Bai Lingchen didn't expect this little girl to have such cleverness, in fact, he didn't want Xiao Dong to go out, but he was really worried about her and didn't have time to explain to her the rules of survival in the imperial city, so it was better to simply lock him in the courtyard.
In this way, she will not cause any trouble for herself, nor will she be discovered and criticized by the people of the Spirit Pavilion for traveling at will, but looking at the young child in front of her, Bai Lingchen felt that she had gone too far for the first time.
Although Xiaoqiu and her are twin sisters, Xiaoqiu has been accustomed to cold-blooded fighting since she was a child, and her mind is naturally much more mature, so that Bai Lingchen forgot that the two of them are just teenage children, and if this age is placed in an ordinary person's home, they must still be living by their parents' side, but he has already ignored that Xiaodong actually still has a child's heart.
Seeing that Bai Lingchen hadn't spoken for so long, Xiao Dong instinctively felt that he was angry, if Xiao Dong had been in the palace, he would have knelt down a long time ago, but now he was on the street, she was afraid that Bai Lingchen would be even more angry after kneeling down at home, so she could only wait for his judgment without saying a word, and she didn't even dare to make the sound of breathing.
Bai Lingchen looked at the little head that was about to be buried in the dust and said coldly, "Today, for the sake of the New Year, I will allow you to have a good day, from tomorrow, I will teach you some martial arts, and the days will not be so easy." ”
Xiao Dong raised his head suddenly, his big eyes seemed to be filled with stars, and he was in a trance when he saw Bai Lingchen, and instantly remembered Tang Meng's eyes.
"Really, can I really play in the city?" Xiao Dong excitedly raised the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, completely forgetting Fang Cai's nervousness, but when he saw Bai Lingchen's cold face, he was instantly beaten back to his original shape, and honestly lowered his little head again.
Bai Lingchen was amused by her childish appearance, but still pretended to be serious and said above her head, "Yes, but you have to follow me for everything when you first come to the Imperial City." ”
Xiao Dong cautiously put the silver ticket back into his arms, and pinched the corner of his clothes uneasily, "But the master is very busy today, Xiao Dong will come out to play tomorrow." ”
"Tomorrow will be busy, too."
The words of this cold and straight man instantly crushed the last bit of excitement and excitement in Xiao Dong's heart, she didn't dare to be wronged, so she could only hold each other's hands tighter, "Xiao Dong knows, Xiao Dong won't cause trouble to the master, I'll go home." ”
After she finished speaking, she just wanted to start and run back, but she was suddenly pulled back to her original position by Bai Lingchen, "Wait for me here," he dropped these four words and went out of the alley, drowning in the crowd.
Soon after, Bai Lingchen came out again and walked down Fang Cai's road to the alley, Xiao Dong saw this and hurriedly wiped away Fang Cai's aggrieved tears, he must not let the owner see him crying, otherwise he would be unhappy, she had just hurriedly sorted it out Bai Lingchen was already standing in front of her.
"Let's go."
Xiao Dong didn't dare to move, Bai Lingchen turned to look at her, "Don't you want to play again?" ”
Xiao Dong's heart suddenly rejoiced, "But the master is not ......"
Bai Lingchen didn't want to explain more about the tsundere attack in his heart, so he dropped a sentence, "If you don't want to come, forget it," and then walked out of the alley, but he didn't walk fast, and as expected, Xiao Dong's brisk steps immediately sounded behind him.
Bai Lingchen unconsciously bent the corners of his mouth in front, since he is busy today and will be busy tomorrow, when will he be able to fulfill his promise, it is better to take advantage of Duan Jingcheng to take Xiaodong to meet the wrongs when he can help him take care of him in the store today, so as not to feel full of regret after losing it that day.
Bai Lingchen looked at the sky in the distance and suddenly sighed, maybe these truths were taught to him by Xiaoqiu.
On the other side, Duan Jingcheng was busy behind the counter, and he still had the abacus that Bai Lingchen had just forced into him on his lap, and all he could play back in his mind was Bai Lingchen's natural and stinky appearance, and the angry Duan Jingcheng almost jumped to his feet.
He took out the pamphlet from his bosom and said indignantly, "Come on, hand me the pen!" ”
Bai Lingchen sneezed violently, so frightened that Xiao Dong hurriedly withdrew his gaze from the dazzling array of pearls and said nervously, "Master, are you sick?" ”
Bai Lingchen frowned and rubbed his nose, thinking that he could guess that someone must be scolding him behind his back, "It's okay, you continue, don't worry about me." ”
"Oh," Xiao Dong whispered, and the bead hairpin, which had been in his hand for a long time, carefully put it back on the stall, "Thank you, I'll go to another place to have a look." ”
After she finished speaking, she jumped forward and walked forward, but Bai Lingchen pulled her sleeves back again, "You don't buy it after watching it for a long time?" ”
Xiao Dong's ears turned red, and he looked at the stall owner and mysteriously pulled Bai Lingchen to a slightly farther position, and whispered, "This pearl hairpin costs seven taels of silver, enough for the family to eat meat for several months, and it is not cost-effective to buy a pearl hairpin and wear it on the head." ”
Bai Lingchen smiled, it was the first time he heard someone compare like this, so he didn't say anything and let her go, and then Xiao Dong looked at several pearl hairpins one after another, and indeed met his favorite style several times, but all because of the price, he carefully put his beloved things back.
Bai Lingchen looked at her reluctant and sorry to thank the stall owner, and only felt inexplicably a little cute, he just wanted to open his mouth but saw that Xiao Dong in front of him was attracted by the sound of rock sugar gourds behind him, so he had to follow first.
