"Hmm." The guard, with a blank face, took the basin and turned and went into the courtyard.

Giving Bai Wei a look, Bai Ling pulled Bai Sanshu's sleeve, and the family turned around and went home.

Where have Bai Sanshu and his family seen such a cold person, and after returning home, they looked out from time to time, and they didn't know if they were looking forward to those things being sent quickly, or if they were scared.

Bai Wei was also silent, not knowing what she was thinking.

It was Bai Ling, after seeing the guards, his heart was settled.

Although I don't know the details of these people, the guard has the murderous aura of a soldier, but there is no cold feeling.

It didn't take long for the guards to come and deliver the dishes, and this time they didn't need to send it to the people in the third room, so they took it themselves.

"I'll bring you back tomorrow morning, and I'll make another breakfast before dawn." Before leaving, the guard said something that was not in the tone of an order, but it was also something that could not be refused.

After the villagers' food was delivered, Bai Sanshu went over to explain to them, and the things were unloaded from the ox cart.

Seeing so many people wearing swords for the first time, the village chief was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, not to mention a few other people.

Until this moment, everyone realized more clearly that the three rooms of the Bai family were really different, and they were not afraid to face such a scene.

The family slept together at night, but Bai Ling didn't know that after they fell asleep, Shangguan Yu and Yang Fan sneaked into their house.

Except for the East House, they were all searched by Shangguan Yu's master and servant, but they did not find any useful clues.

Early in the morning of the second day, Shangguan Yu and his party left after breakfast, and Bai Ling, who was standing at the door and looking out, did not find Shangguan Yu's figure.

Shaw Annex.

Although the annex is located in such a small place, the architecture inside is exquisite.

Xiao Muqing has been frail and sickly since she was a child, and a master has ordered her to take refuge in a remote place in the north, and she can only meet nobles before she arrives, which can resolve her bad luck.

As the concubine of the family, Xiao Muqing's status is not inferior to that of her son-in-law, and the family immediately funded the construction of a courtyard for her here, and everything was built with reference to the courtyard in Kyoto, so as not to make her uncomfortable when she returned in the future.

"Let's take a look, Brother Shizi should have arrived." Xiao Muqing couldn't sit still, and worry was written on her soft face, which made her already pale face even more worrying.

"Yes." Biyun answered, and hurriedly walked out in small steps.

"Miss, let's have a cup of ginseng tea. Xu is the prince of the world was delayed by something, the prince of the world is superb in martial arts, and there are so many people to protect him, he will definitely be fine. Qianyun reassured.

"Brother Shizi will come over every year in the new year and accompany me to spend the new year before leaving. Heavy snowfall in the past few days...... Qianyun, I'm not sure, I always feel that something will happen. Stroking his chest, Xiao Muqing frowned and said.

"Miss is too worried, Xu is too much snow, and the prince is blocked on the road. When the snow stops, the prince will come to visit the young lady. Handing the ginseng tea to Xiao Muqing, Qianyun said softly: "Miss hasn't eaten well or slept well in the past two days, and her face is a little haggard, but do you want the slave to reapply makeup to Miss?" ”

"Is my face bad?" Xiao Muqing raised her hand to touch her face, and said with a nervous expression: "Quick, Brother Shizi has so many things to deal with, I can't let him worry about me anymore." ”

Seeing Xiao Muqing like this, Qianyun smiled and said, "My good young lady, you drink the ginseng soup first." Otherwise, the prince is here, but you don't have the energy to entertain you, wouldn't it be ......"

"I'll drink it." Xiao Muqing finished the tea cup, drank the ginseng soup in one go, and then ordered: "You keep an eye on the kitchen, the dishes that Brother Shizi likes to eat, and the bamboo leaf green that he loves to drink, must be warm." After more than an hour, I will do it again, and my brother has never eaten much, so it can't be done. ”

"Yes, yes, the young lady has explained it many times, and the slaves and maids have remembered it." Qianyun covered his mouth and chuckled, but he didn't dare to continue to say things that made fun of his master.

Xiao Muqing sighed, and couldn't remember anything else that needed to be ordered for a while.

There is only one master in the courtyard, Xiao Muqing, and few people come to the door, so every year when Shangguan Yu sends the gifts brought to Xiao Muqing by the way of the capital is the busiest time in the courtyard.

For his own young lady's thoughts, the people around him are clear and happy to see it.

Even, Qianyun thinks that Shangguan Yu is also affectionate to Xiao Muqing, otherwise he would not help send New Year's gifts every year, and he would prepare a separate one for Xiao Muqing, and stay in the courtyard for a day.

Xiao Muqing went to re-freshen up and dress up, Shangguan Yu and his party were on their way.

"Yang Fan, have you noticed anything?" Shangguan Yu leaned against the wall of the car and asked.

Yang Fan was stunned for a moment, then shook his head.

Slowly closing his eyes, Shangguan Yu wrinkled his brows, and his previous suspicions turned into doubts.

However, Shangguan Yu had no substantial evidence, so he did not speak again.

Until he arrived at the Xiao family's courtyard, Shangguan Yu didn't speak again, but he kept thinking about Bai Ling in his heart.

"Lord Shizi, my young lady went out temporarily, and there is an explanation before leaving, if you miss it with the prince, please wait for a while, the young lady will be back soon." The housekeeper trotted to the door, didn't care about wiping his sweat, and hurriedly told the matter, afraid that Shangguan Yu would turn around and leave.

"Hmm." Shangguan Yu was not in a hurry, thinking about the letter that his friend had entrusted him to pass to Xiao Muqing, he walked towards the courtyard.

Shangguan Yu will come over once a year, and the other courtyard has set up a guest house specially reserved for Shangguan Yu, so that the group can take a quiet rest, so as not to go back to worship their ancestors.

Let's say that Xiao Muqing recruited rats because of the dried fruits in the other courtyard, and she couldn't entertain Shangguan Yu, so she was about to cry.

I heard that there was a farmer in Nanshan Village who sold fried chestnuts with sugar that were extremely rare, and there were no candy shops selling them, so I decided to buy them myself.

At this time, Xiao Muqing had already come to the third room, and couldn't help frowning when she looked at the dilapidated courtyard.

"Are you sure you're not in the wrong place?" Xiao Muqing's delicate brows furrowed slightly, and asked the handlebar style.

"The little grandson of the slave family likes to eat this bite and has come to buy it before." Handlebar busty back road.

"Go call the door." Xiao Muqing's frowning brows did not stretch, and she didn't believe that people living in such dilapidated houses could make anything good.

Biyun went to call the door, but Qianyun gathered the cotton cloak with fox fur on her body for Xiao Muqing, afraid that she would be blown by the cold.

"This kind of thing, just ask someone to come and buy some, Miss is a daughter, why bother with this wind and cold." Qianyun said distressedly.

"Brother Shizi only comes once a year, and I came here in person to show my sincerity. And if I don't taste it myself, I'm not sure about it. Xiao Muqing smiled softly.

Shangguan Yu is sassy, Xiao Muqing always bothered about eating for this year's meeting, hoping that Shangguan Yu could understand her thoughts.

Hearing this, Qianyun had no choice but to say: "If the prince knew this thought of the young lady, he would definitely be moved." ”

"Really?" Xiao Muqing's slightly pale face was dyed with a slight flush, and her head drooped slightly.

Biyun called someone out, it was Bai Ling.

Seeing that Biyun was wearing satin clothes as a maid, and the red hairpin on her head was not a bargain in the town, Bai Ling knew that this was definitely not an ordinary big family.

When he went out to greet the guests, Bai Ling looked at Xiao Muqing.

I saw that the other party was the same age as himself, but he had a sickly face, even if the thick fat powder couldn't stop it.

The cotton cloak with splendid flowers is a valuable thing at a glance, and there are not many hairpins on the head, but even those who don't know the goods know that the pearl head is worth a lot.
