Volume 1 Where is the King of the Sword in the World Chapter 18 The First Encounter in the Annex
In the Lin Mansion, Lin Sining was drawing in the boudoir, and the maid Ru Xin ran and said, "Miss, I heard that Young Master Bai has been grounded." ”
Lin Sining stopped writing, "Oh, what's the matter?" ”
Ru Xin looked around and leaned into her ear, "I heard that he asked Master Bai to marry a girl, saying that the girl was a fisherman's girl." Master Bai was furious and asked him to think about it behind closed doors in the other garden. ”
Lin Sining smiled, how can this plot be similar to a novel. She and Bai Xuan have been childhood sweethearts since childhood, the lord and wife of the Bai family think that Bai Xuan is a weak child, she is very familiar with his temperament, and knows that he is a casual and unruly person. I just didn't expect that there would be a romantic affair.
"What about Bai Gongzi? Or do you want to marry this girl? ”
"How can I be?" Ru Xin looked at Lin Sining, and began to talk again, "I heard that Young Master Bai obediently stayed in the other garden and thought about it behind closed doors, and Mrs. Bai also stuffed a personal girl in, I wanted him to have a new love and broke my thoughts, it seemed that the girl was too ostentatious, and she really thought that she was a young grandmother who swaggered into the door, but she didn't expect to be thrown into the empty courtyard in the east and left cold." Speaking of this, Ru Xin herself burst into laughter. Lin Sining pinched her handkerchief to cover her mouth, and secretly laughed.
"Young Master Bai is probably also fascinated by that fisherman's girl for a while, and it will be fine after a while. Miss, don't you see that this book is also the last talented and beautiful woman together? You and Childe are a natural pair. ”
Lin Sining blushed for a while, "You don't know much about words, how can you look at this novel?" ”
"Didn't you sneak a look at it and tell me?"
"You can't tell Madame about this, or I'll tear your mouth apart." Lin Sining glared at her with a smile. "Go and prepare some preserves, I'll go out."
"Preserves? Who are you going to send it to? Ru Xin wondered.
"Go to Baifu. You talk more. ”
When Mrs. Bai heard that Lin Sining was coming, she was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth, "You can come, and you are so polite." ”
"Si Ning knows that Mrs. loves candied fruit, and a while ago, the house received a secret candied fruit from the south, and I came to give Mrs. a taste."
"You've been so sensible since you were a kid. Although our two families have already had a marriage contract, I have always regarded you as a daughter. ”
"Madame has won the prize. The master is often not at home, if the lady is bored, I will ask my family's troupe to come over to relieve your boredom. ”
"This kid is so sensible, as soon as I see you, my mood is much better." Mrs. Bai looked at Lin Sining happily, now she is slim and graceful, even in the whole Xizhou, it is rare to find such a beauty, thinking of the things Bai Xuan did, she couldn't help but feel a wall in her heart, "You said that Bai Xuan, this child, has really spoiled him since he was a child, and often comes to me to add to the blockage, and then I have to rely on you to take care of him, sometimes I think, if you become my daughter-in-law, it is really a blessing for our Bai family." ”
"Bai Gongzi is outstanding in learning, and he is famous far and wide. The parents are in charge of this marriage contract, and Si Ning is all arranged by his parents. Lin Sining lowered his head shyly.
"You have been childhood sweethearts since childhood, and you are also familiar. I won't hide it, he collided with the master, was grounded, and was locked up in the garden. He's still angry with me, and I can't control him. Why don't you go and see him for me, and help me persuade him. Maybe he'll be able to hear you. Madame Bai called someone to bring something for Lin Sining to bring over, and Lin Sining said goodbye and left the White Mansion. Let's go somewhere. After Lin Sining got into the carriage, he asked Ru Xin to turn around and go to another alley. The crowd in the market was bustling, Lin Sining secretly looked out through the curtain in the carriage, and drove to a shop, she shouted, "Stop." She asked Ru Xin to go to the shop and buy a box of cold cakes, and then went to Baifu Villa.
In front of the garden, Lan Xi opened the door and was a little surprised, "Miss Lin, it's you." ”
Lin Sining nodded slightly, "It's been a long time, Miss Lanxi." ”
Lan Xi brought her into the hall and went to call Bai Xuan. Lin Sining looked around at the hall and the garden, it was the first time she came here, she had seen Bai Xuan in the Bai Mansion in the past, and the style here was more like it came from Bai Xuan's hand, clean and elegant, not a little redundant.
"Miss Lin." Bai Xuan came out to make a gesture, and she also returned to the blessed body, "What is the matter with today's visit?" ”
"Can't I come to see you if it's okay?" Lin Sining smiled, "The last time I saw you, you said you were going to travel, and almost half a year has passed. ”
"It's been so long."
"What do you think I've brought?" Lin Sining went to untie the box, revealing a box of cold cakes.
"Chilled cake?" Bai Xuan's eyes lit up when he saw it, this smell was too long, "This is the old Shui family's shop?" ”
Lin Sining smiled and nodded. "Oh my God, his shop is still open. I miss the taste so much. Bai Xuan rushed over, took a piece and stuffed it in his mouth.
"It was a few years ago, I remember crying when I didn't know what was going on, and you secretly took me to that shop in order to coax me, and I've been writing it down ever since. I remember that the two of us shared a box of cold cakes, and when I went back, I couldn't eat, and my parents blamed me. ”
"It's been years. The taste hasn't changed at all. ”
"I heard you're grounded here?"
"Yes."
"What?"
"I wanted to marry a girl, but my father didn't agree." Bai Xuan said expressionlessly.
Lin Sining thought that what Ru Xin said was just hearsay, and she didn't want Bai Xuan to say it herself, and she felt a sense of loss in her heart. "If he doesn't agree, will you keep sticking?"
"I will make my own decisions, so it doesn't matter if my parents don't agree." Bai Xuan suddenly realized something and felt a little embarrassed, "Miss Lin, I know that our two families have had a marriage contract. But...... You know, I've always thought of you as a sister...... But...... "He didn't know how to organize the language for a while, and he stammered a little.
"I understand. I'm just coming to visit Madame White. ”
"Xiao Ning, thank you for the cold cake." Bai Xuan picked up another piece of cold cake and smiled at her.
Lin Sining heard Bai Xuan call her nickname, stunned for a moment, and lowered her head, "If you are your sister for the rest of your life, as long as you still love me as much as before." ”
"You will always be my sister. Come, I'll show you around. Bai Xuan smiled and led Lin Sining to walk around. When he turned to the West Courtyard, he stopped. At this time, only a woman's voice could be heard, "Maomao!" Maomao! A fluffy civet cat pounced on Lin Sining's heel and startled her, and Bai Xuan blocked her behind. Su Yun ran out while calling, and when she saw the civet cat, she immediately hugged her in her arms and picked up her hair, "Maomao, it turns out that you are here, but you make me anxious." ”
Only then did she realize that Bai Xuan was standing in front of him, and there was a girl like a flower and jade behind her. "Bai Gongzi." Su Yun hurriedly asked Bai Xuan to say goodbye. Bai Xuan's expression was grim, "Where did this cat come from?" ”
A girl next to her said, "It slipped into the yard, and Miss Suyun took it in." ”
"No animals are allowed in the yard, didn't I say that?"
"Yes, Childe. The slave maid will take the cat away. ”
"Nope." Su Yun actually shouted, "Bai Gongzi, I stayed here alone, and you didn't come to see me." Can't I get bored with a cat? As she spoke, she stared at Lin Sining, her eyes as if she was about to kill her. Lin Sining wondered why this woman hated her so much, and she was so frightened that she hid behind Bai Xuan and didn't dare to come out.
"Why did I come to see you, I didn't let you go back is polite." Bai Xuan glanced at her coldly, and said to a girl next to her, "Take the cat away for me." ”
Then, the girl snatched the civet cat in Su Yun's arms and let Su Yun scream there.
"Who is she?" Lin Sining glanced back at Su Yun.
"The maid sent by my mother wanted to be used to fill the house, but I spent it." Bai Xuan didn't look back, and led Lin Sining to another place.
"Who is this woman, who actually let the son snatch my hair away, I will not let her have good fruits to eat." When Su Yun saw Lin Sining, she vaguely felt that she had something to do with Bai Xuan, and she couldn't help but be jealous.
"She's the second lady of the Lin family." The girl next to her whispered, "It's the one who has a marriage contract with the son." ”
Su Yun was speechless for a moment, this is the wife of the main house, how can she compare herself with others like this, so she has to go back to the house. "What's so great about the main house, the son may not want her yet." She muttered as she walked, "Those high-ranking officials and nobles have countless concubines and wives. ”
"Hey." The girl looked around and shrugged her, "Don't talk nonsense, beware that the wall has ears, in case it reaches the ears of the lady, do you still want to stay in Baifu?" ”
Su Yun stomped her foot angrily, and as soon as she stepped into the room, she lay down on the bed and sulked.
Bai Xuan took Lin Sining around and chatted with her for a while, until he said that it was getting dark, and Lin Sining left the garden.
