Chapter 141: There's One Thing for You
In the past three months, Bai Ziyi has always thought about instilling in Bai He the idea that Fu Jinghuai is a high-quality and good man, and has always thought about creating opportunities for Fu Jinghuai. He thought very simply, the matter between Bai He and Zhu Dongfeng seemed to be completely over, so Bai He should have a new life, but her eyes on men were really anxious, so it was better for him, who was an elder brother, to help him. He thought that even if he didn't like it at first, he would like it after a long time, isn't that what it is like to fall in love over time?
However, what Bai Ziyi doesn't understand is that not every pair of men and women can fall in love for a long time.
Bai He and Fu Jinghuai will be very good friends, but they can only be friends.
She really couldn't have any other feelings for him than friendship.
Bai He couldn't be more clear with what Bai Ziyi said, and after Bai Ziyi saw her resolute attitude, she finally decided to give up matching the two of them, and how to develop in the future depends on going with the flow.
However, Bai He's major affairs have not progressed, which does not mean that Bai Ziyi's own affairs have not progressed, and the eldest lady finally nodded and approved of his military doctor girlfriend, so he is going to get engaged to his military doctor girlfriend Qu Xiaorou.
The engagement day is set on the day when Bai Ziyi and Qu Xiaorou confirm their relationship, which is very memorable for the two of them.
Many people from the Bai family came that day, but most of them came from the barracks, and Qu Xiaorou's father was not able to attend, only his mother rushed over a few days in advance. Because Qu Xiaorou's father is also a soldier, he can't help himself.
Bai He helps entertain guests at home, she is beautiful and has a good personality, and she can talk, and the guests who come want to come to her. But after a while, when she saw Fu Jinghuai following her almost inch by inch, she retreated one by one.
"What are you doing with me?" Bai Hedi didn't know how many times she turned around and almost bumped into Fu Jinghuai, she finally asked suspiciously.
Fu Jinghuai looked at her and said with a smile, "I just want to see if there's anything I can do to help you." ”
"Master Fu is a guest, how can I ask you to help?" Bai Yuewei leaned over and said with a smile, she had seen Fu Jinghuai following behind Bai He like a tail from just now, and it was weird and cute.
Fu Jinghuai said: "I didn't treat myself as a guest. ”
Bai Yuewei pursed her lips and asked, "Then you regard yourself as a family member?" After saying that, he covered his mouth again and laughed secretly, as if he had spied on some secret.
Bai He stretched out his hand and knocked on the door of her head, "If you have time to talk nonsense here, it is better to ask the eldest brother if there is anything else that he didn't expect, and take advantage of the fact that the ceremony has not officially started." ”
"Oh." Bai Yuewei replied and said that then I won't bother my sister and future brother-in-law, I'll go over first. After speaking, he touched his head and ran fast, like a rabbit.
Bai He looked at her back, thinking that when this matter passed, she should also find an opportunity to discipline Bai Yuewei well, since she was sick, Bai He didn't even say a word to her, so she was so open-mouthed.
And Fu Jinghuai didn't feel anything, he even had some joy in his heart, as if he had invisibly narrowed the distance between him and Bai He.
"Yuewei's recent form looks good." The personality is much more cheerful, and the smile on his face has become more.
Bai He nodded and said, "Well, this state has been going on for a while recently. ”
Fu Jinghuai asked, "Or go to the hospital once a week?" ”
"Now it's a bi-weekly trip. The doctor said that after two months, he could change it to a trip every month. Bai He smiled as she spoke, "Yuewei now likes to see a psychiatrist, she said that it is very fun to chat with the doctor, and she can know a lot of things that she never knew before." Recently, the doctor also organized several activities, and she went to participate in them every time, and every time she came to my place, she cried a lot, saying that there were many people who needed help more than her, and she looked very sad. ”
"Aren't you worried?" Fu Jinghuai thought that this kind of thing that would cause emotional ups and downs should be avoided by patients like Bai Yuewei who are undergoing psychotherapy.
"Don't worry, because the doctor said that it would be better for her to know why she laughed and why she cried than to never have an emotional fluctuation." Bai He said that what I am more worried about now than this is that the doctor will take her to set up a stall to sell paintings next week.
Fu Jinghuai listened to it and felt that this was not a new life experience, but he didn't understand what Bai He was worried about.
"I'm worried that the painting won't sell, and Yuewei's self-confidence will be frustrated." Bai Yuewei has only been learning to paint for a little more than four months, and her level is at most a little better than those who can't draw, but it is far from the extent that people can voluntarily pay for paintings. Bai He was afraid that her self-confidence, which she had built up so hard, would be crushed again because of this incident.
Fu Jinghuai thought for a while, "Since this matter was raised by her psychiatrist, then I think you can rest assured." And, maybe the current Yuewei is not as fragile as you think. ”
"yes, maybe I'm thinking too much." Bai He smiled and nodded.
Fu Jinghuai wanted to say something more, the protagonist of the topic, Bai Yuewei, trotted again, and Bai He asked her to stabilize her focus and not be so reckless.
Bai Yuewei didn't listen to her, and patted Bai He's arm several times before she said shortly breathing: "Fourth sister, I wish the east wind is coming!" ”
"What?" Bai He was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked, "What is he doing here?" ”
Bai Yuewei choked up when she was asked, and said sneeringly: "That should be a congratulatory gift for the eldest brother...... "How do you ask her?" How did she know where to go?
Sending a congratulatory gift to Bai Ziyi?
Because of the relationship between Bai He, Zhu Dongfeng and Bai Ziyi are so disgusted with each other, how could he come to give Bai Ziyi a congratulatory gift?
Bai He twisted his eyebrows and thought for a while, and asked Bai Yuewei: "Did he go to see his eldest brother?" ”
“…… He was still standing outside the door. Bai Yuewei whispered to Bai He's ear: "He said that he was afraid that you would be upset when he saw him, and he was not ready to enter the door without your consent." I wanted to help take something for my eldest brother, but I was afraid that you would say it was rude, so I found an excuse and ran in to find you. ”
Zhu Dongfeng's meaning was obviously to ask Bai He to personally go over and lead him into the door.
Bai He frowned and was thinking about his intentions, Bai Yuewei glanced at Fu Jinghuai and said quietly: "Sister, or I will let him go back?" Or take his gift and let him go back? ”
"Nonsense." How can there be a reason that guests are not allowed to enter the door, and the words that are passed out have to be said that the people of the Bai family don't know what to do.
"What then? People are still waiting outside the door. ”
Bai He said you are here, I'll go over and take a look. After speaking, she walked towards the gate without looking back, forgetting Fu Jinghuai at all.
Bai Yuewei looked at her back and blinked, and then glanced at Fu Jinghuai secretly, Fu Jinghuai's gaze was deep and far-reaching. She was afraid that Fu Jinghuai would be disappointed, so she cleared her throat and said, "Master Fu, sit down, I have a few questions I want to consult you." ”
When Bai He walked to the door, Zhu Dongfeng was talking to the other guests who came, but in fact, it was mainly others who took the initiative to talk to him, and he lacked interest in coping.
After the guests entered the door, Zhu Dongfeng smiled when he saw the white lotus, and said, "There are a lot of people here." ”
Bai He looked at him and found that his shoulders were a little thicker, and he was probably wearing more clothes than in summer, so he looked strong.
She said, "Let's go, I'll take you to my eldest brother." ”
"No need, you can just help me give him the gift." Zhu Dongfeng asked Anan to hand over the things to Bai He, Bai He glanced at it, but didn't answer.
"Since you're here, how can you leave without even entering the door?" Bai He said Besides, I don't know when your relationship with my eldest brother has been so good, if I accept it on his behalf, and he is dissatisfied with me and reprimands me in turn, then I am not asking for hardship.
Zhu Dongfeng smiled when he heard this, and no longer refused, and stepped into the door of the Bai family after saying hello.
His appearance is definitely a boiling point in the audience, after all, Zhu Dongfeng and Bai He once had such a compelling love history, and then the two ended their relationship inexplicably and never went in and out together. Later, after Zhu Dongfeng revealed that he would not be able to have children for life, everyone thought that this was the reason for their breakup, including the people of the Bai family.
Now that Bai Ziyi is engaged, I wish the east wind is coming, could it be that he and Bai He are going to reunite again? Was his hidden disease cured?
No one cares what others think, Bai He just calmly walked to the west chamber with Zhu Dongfeng. Yue eBook
Bai Ziyi and Qu Xiaorou were inside, he had just gone to entertain a group of guests, and he came in to rest for a while. Bai He told him that there was a guest coming, and he immediately got up and tidied up to meet the guest, and then found that the person who came was Zhu Dongfeng, and he killed someone he couldn't even imagine.
Zhu Dongfeng smiled freely: "I heard that you are going to get engaged, so I came to congratulate you." Congratulations. ”
Bai Ziyi looked at him, then at Bai He, and finally at him again. Qu Xiaorou stabbed him in the back behind him, and he immediately replied, "Thank you." ”
Zhu Dongfeng took the congratulatory gift from Anan and handed it to Qu Xiaorou, and praised the other party by the way, Qu Xiaorou smiled embarrassedly, and his favorability for him skyrocketed.
After sending the congratulatory gift, after the two sides said a few words, Zhu Dongfeng found an excuse to leave, Bai Ziyi kept him a few words out of courtesy, and he just smiled.
Originally, Bai Ziyi and Qu Xiaorou should have personally sent Zhu Dongfeng away, but the two of them couldn't leave at this time, so they had to let Bai He do it for them.
The two walked side by side, and Zhu Dongfeng said, "Isn't it a surprise that I will come?" ”
"A little." Saying that the accident is actually not a special accident, it seems that there is a feeling in the dark that tells Bai He that the east wind will appear.
"Actually, I didn't just come to give him a gift. There's one more thing I'm going to give you. Zhu Dongfeng looked at her with a smile.
Bai He said, "I won't ask for it." Whatever it is. ”
Her refusal was already expected by Zhu Dongfeng, "If you don't accept it this time, then I will send someone to send it to you once a day until you are willing to accept it." ”
Bai He stood on the steps of the door and looked at him, and said resolutely: "I am living well now, don't disturb my life again." ”
"I know, so I want you to take it simply." Zhu Dongfeng asked Anan to take out a huge box from the car, and it was impossible to tell what it contained from the appearance, "Leave it to you, and you have full control over what it ends up with." Whether you put it on the shelf or discard it, it's up to you. ”
Listening to Zhu Dongfeng's words, Bai He couldn't help but wonder what it was.
She looked at it a few times and asked, wanting to confirm the content before deciding whether to accept it or not.
However, Zhu Dongfeng didn't tell her, only said that she should take it back and take it apart and take a look at it herself.
The two of them stood at the door of the people coming and going, Bai He took it after a few hesitations, and when she got it, she found that the box was very heavy, if she didn't know that Zhu Dongfeng would not give money to people, she must have thought that what was contained in it was money.
After Bai He held it steady, Zhu Dongfeng withdrew his hands, he looked at Bai He again, then smiled slightly, and got into the car without saying anything.
Bai He went back with the box, Bai Yuewei gossiped close and asked what it was, she naturally couldn't answer her, so she let the box know first and put it in her original room.
The guests are almost here, and the engagement ceremony begins.
There are mostly young people on the scene, there are not so many constraints, the atmosphere is warm and festive, the eldest lady originally wanted to hold a grand and formal event, but she couldn't resist Bai Ziyi wanted to come happily and casually, and after discussing with Qu Xiaorou's mother, the two decided to go by the child's wishes, after all, they will live by themselves in the future.
Bai Ziyi is dressed in a straight military uniform, solemn and serious; Qu Xiaorou wore a red cheongsam, gentle and elegant. The two of them are standing together, talented and beautiful, and they are very compatible.
Bai Yuewei listened to Bai Ziyi's speech and looked at it directly, her eyes full of flashing tears.
Bai He asked, "Envious?" ”
"Hmm." Bai Yuewei snorted, she wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and said, "I thought I wouldn't envy others for having a happy love anymore, but now I find that I'm actually very envious." The sequelae that Zhu Senshan brought to her were long-term, she lost all her illusions and desires for love, and it can also be said that she poured too much truth into Zhu Senshan, so that she had no extra emotions to invest elsewhere. However, looking at Bai Ziyi and Qu Xiaorou, Bai Yuewei found that she was still looking forward to it, she still wanted to have an unswerving love, the kind of sincerity and sincerity between each other.
"Yes." Bai He squeezed her hand and said that someone will definitely know how to appreciate your goodness.
"What about you, Fourth Sister?" Bai Yuewei looked at her and asked Are you envious?
Bai He shook his head and said he was not envious. What she is asking for now is not love, but a stable and peaceful life, in her opinion, people do not have to love each other in this life. As long as you live happily, what does it matter if one or two people are happy?
Bai Yuewei felt that it made sense when she heard it, but she thought that maybe Bai He still had Zhu Dongfeng in her heart, so she said such things. She tilted her head and looked at Fu Jinghuai, who was sitting at the other table, although she really wanted him to be her brother-in-law, but this thing was not something she could do if she wanted to.
"Ugh." She sighed.
Bai He glanced at her and said What do you mean by sighing at your eldest brother's engagement banquet?
"It's not interesting, I'm distracted." Bai Yuewei stuck out her tongue, hugged Bai He's arm and smiled.
Bai Ziyi and Qu Xiaorou said something separately, but they were thanking their family and friends for their efforts. Bai Zhengting and the fourth aunt, who couldn't help anything, were also on the list, and the two of them didn't seem to feel ashamed, and they couldn't stop laughing when they heard their names.
After thanking their parents, relatives and friends, everyone sat down and began to eat, and Bai Ziyi took Qu Xiaorou to toast table by table.
When he arrived at the table where Bai He was sitting, Bai Ziyi had to pour a glass of wine for Bai He, who was his sister, and Bai He asked him not to make trouble, saying that there was no brother and sister-in-law who toasted his sister.
However, Bai Ziyi said that he didn't agree with anything, saying that the burden that should have fallen on my shoulders all these years was carried by you, and you should be respected.
Bai Yuewei coaxed on the side, and everyone watched.
Bai He smiled helplessly, took the wine glass and drank it all.
The engagement banquet ended at five o'clock in the afternoon, and the guests who were full of food and drink left one after another, and Bai He helped to send off the guests. When Fu Jinghuai also left, the guests were all sent away, the people of the Bai family all sat down on their chairs to rest, and the servants went back and forth to clean up the leftovers.
The fourth aunt held her waist and said, "It's over, my waist is about to break." "She, a person who hasn't done anything, has a pain in her back, and it can be seen how tired Bai He is when she is busy.
"Eldest sister, how much money did you receive as a gift?" The fourth aunt asked the eldest lady who was looking at the gift money, and the eldest lady closed the thin book and said What are you asking for.
The fourth aunt pouted too much, muttering that she would ask casually, what kind of stinginess she had.
She got up and went back to her room to rest.
Bai Zhengting was actually very concerned about how much gift money he received, but the eldest lady was not even allowed to touch it when she took the gift money, and bluntly said that the money had to be returned, so you don't want to play any crooked brains.
Bai Zhengting said aggrievedly, I just want to see it.
Now the big and small affairs and daily expenses of the Bai family's family are all decided by the eldest wife, and in the past few months, Bai Zhengting has often been ordered to squat at home, and if he really wants to go out, he must have a servant to follow, and when he comes back, he reports the route to the eldest wife, as if he is living in surveillance. He also protested, and also initiated a vote at home, but the result was that Bai He, who did not live at home, unanimously rejected his freedom. Bai Zhengting often sat at the stone table in the courtyard and drank tea and said that he regretted that he should not gamble again, but what was the use of regret? No one in this family believed in him anymore.
Occasionally, when Bai He came back, Bai Zhengting would find an opportunity to talk to her, but Bai He didn't bother to deal with it, just pretended not to hear.
Now he also wants to complain to Bai He, but Bai He doesn't look at him, and directly tells Bai Ziyi, who sent her mother-in-law back, that she should go back. Bai Ziyi disagreed, saying that he wanted to have a drink with her and Bai Yuewei's brothers and sisters, but there were too many people just now, so I didn't say a few words to them.
Bai He thought that such opportunities would become less and less in the future, so he agreed.
Bai Ziyi asked the kitchen to cook a few more side dishes, and the third aunt took out two jars of sorghum wine that she had nothing to do to cheer them up, which caused several people to be amazed.
People are in good spirits on happy occasions, Bai Ziyi usually talks a lot, and even more when he is just successfully engaged, Bai He and Bai Yuewei listened to how he met Qu Xiaorou and how he was in love, and Bai Yuewei muttered and said, "Big brother specifically wants to show off to us, right?" ”
"No, how could it be!" Bai Ziyi flatly denied it, saying that I just want you to feel how happy I am, and I hope you can find your own happiness.
