Chapter 270: Drinking Tea and Talking About Family Affairs
On the second day of February in the lunar calendar, commonly known as the dragon raising its head, it is customary to be the day when children shave their heads.
After a spring rain, there are more people on the streets of Taiyang County today, especially the people who drink tea by the river, and they are very lively.
Because Taiyang County is located in the northwest of China, the people are rude, men are like this, women are like this, sitting on the second floor of a tea room on the riverbank, listening to the voices of those who copy the local dialect of Taiyang County, Li Siwen suddenly has a feeling, this is the true meaning of life.
Bai Shanshan, who was sitting opposite Li Siwen, was a ruthless character who couldn't count her strength even if she was there, and her thoughts paused for a while, and said, "Why, Mr. Li has been looking out the window, doesn't he want to go down and have fun with everyone, right?" ”
"Don't say you really think like that."
Louwailou, the largest and most luxurious teahouse in Taiyang County, and the private room of Tianzi is also the largest, brightest and best location private room outside the building.
In this Tianzi private room, you can see the Taiyang River when you open the windows of the east and west, and you can see the majestic Yaoshan Mountain when you open the window on the north, and even when the weather is good, even the gate of the town and the country on Yaoshan can be seen clearly.
A private room in a teahouse like this is not cheap by the hour.
"Miss Bai, I want to ask, how much does it cost for you to invite me to drink tea here, how much does it cost for an hour to stay in a private room? If it's too expensive, we don't have to pay back a place, after all, half of your Bai family's property in the future is mine, and it will be a waste of my money to use any more, do you say? ”
Bai Shanshan glanced at Li Siwen and said, "Just let it go, the property here used to be my second uncle's own, and it stands to reason that it shouldn't be included in the Bai family, but now it belongs to me, so I don't waste your money, but help you expand the industry." ”
Li Siwen took a sip of tea, put the teacup on the table, and said: "Oh, the good Longjing before the rain, this taste is really good, I just don't know, is there a big red robe that is more than ten years old for me to rinse my mouth?" ”
Bai Shanshan smiled faintly, this Mr. Li is really polite, the big red robe for more than two years is worth two or three thousand just a cup like this, the big red robe for more than ten years, every bite is sky-high, and this guy also uses it to rinse his mouth.
However, Bai Shanshan didn't say anything, and quickly ordered the people below to take a small box of ten-year-old red robes and personally make a cup for Li Siwen.
Li Siwen took a sip of the red bright tea soup he was wearing in the white jade cup, his heart was very comfortable, and his mouth was also very comfortable, and he said to Bai Shanshan with a smile on his face: "I also drank this tea, and Jing also saw it, Bai Shanshan, you won't just invite me to tea when you call me here today, right?" ”
Bai Shanshan did not answer Li Siwen's words directly, and put the tea leaves in her hand into the teapot in turn in an orderly manner, skillfully, after all, in the days when she was walking uncomfortably, she could only pass the long time by doing some simple and elegant operations with her hands.
"Mr. Li, I began to have difficulty moving when I was six years old, if it weren't for the fact that I still had the ability to calculate the fate of the family through hexagrams, I was afraid that my patriarchal grandfather would see me as a burden and put me in the house of an unknown ordinary person in Taiyang County, and I was abused. Treat. ”
"You may think I'm alarmist, but let me tell you the truth, my parents had an older sister before they were born, and Ju said that the sister also had hypochondria when she was six years old, and my grandfather threw a six-year-old child somewhere in the middle of nowhere, regardless of his parents' reaction, and I don't know if he was dead or alive. Because my grandfather said that my sister was a disgrace to the Bai family. ”
"You also know that for those of us big families, the fate and reputation of the family have long been greater than the individual, so even my parents will think that their children have a problem instead of the Bai family's family rules."
Li Siwen thought of himself, when he was born, according to his father, he was also a freak, and there was no bone in his body that was connected, just like a soft human skin doll, fortunately he was not born in the Shen family, if he was really born in the Shen family, he met the grandfather who was only in charge of power, and he was afraid that his life would indicate his death after birth.
Li Siwen did not interrupt Bai Shanshan, the current Bai Shanshan saw something different in the East Wing Courtyard before, the current Bai Shanshan is defenseless, does not have a strong aura, it can be regarded as a relaxed state, maybe only in this state, she will want to find someone to confide in the suffering she has endured in her heart.
"For the family rules of the Bai family, there are the same family rules of most big families, the blood of the family must be pure, it must be healthy and talented, like my sister and me, who suddenly become disabled in the middle of the road, that is the shame of the Bai family, and it is even very likely to be used as a tool to insult the Bai family by others."
"But don't you think it's ridiculous? That family is not full of blood, has done so many unseemly things, and wants to God to give good luck to their children and grandchildren, how can there be no retribution. To be honest, I have given up on my illness, I have seen such a doctor, and I have taken a lot of strange medicines that have not improved, but do you know why I still work hard to live? ”
Li Siwen picked up the teacup in his hand, looked at Bai Shanshan and said, "You want to change the rules of the Bai family." ”
"Yes, that's right, I want to change the rules of the Bai family."
"It's hard."
"But I did."
Bai Shanshan chuckled, her smile revealing a hint of helplessness.
"I almost killed my grandfather last night."
Li Siwen was not surprised at all when he heard this, a woman who entered the Dao with the Heavenly Hexagram and was born as a genius of Daomen cultivation, did not have the dark side of the Demon Dao at all under the rapid power flooding, that was really the problem.
As long as she is still a normal person, if she has seven emotions and six desires, and has been injured in the heart, she will do great rebellious things when she is in the devil.
"But I didn't do it." When Bai Shanshan said this, she accidentally pinched the white jade cup in her hand and smashed it.
"I remember that the head of the Bai family seems to be a powerhouse comparable to the martial arts innate realm and half stepping into the earth immortal, right?"
"Yes, but he's no match for me anymore."
"So, you want to tell me that you have now successfully sat on the position of the head of the Bai family, right?"
Bai Shanshan smiled lightly and said: "Not yet, but it's soon, the old man in our family who doesn't know his six relatives, especially cares about what outsiders think of him, he thinks I should hold a glorious abdication ceremony for him, and I will start to do it in two days." ”
"Mr. Li, why don't you ask, why didn't the old man in our family investigate Bai Jichang's death, think that Bai Jichang is his most valued grandson."
"I probably don't dare to pursue it, after all, it's enough of a headache to face a terrifying granddaughter, and now I have to beg for a living under this granddaughter, and then pursue the dead, why bother."
"Yes, he didn't dare to pursue it. But this made me understand a truth, that is, whoever is strong must listen to whom. Then Mr. Li, I'm afraid that my previous agreement with you will change. ”
