While waiting for Chun Niang to get the wine, Bai Qirui just glanced at the lobby casually, and a familiar back sat in the south of the lobby. On her side was the one from Ji Yechen's house. Seeing Su Man looking in his direction, Bai Qirui lowered his head slightly, and immediately turned around and left, and the wine didn't look like he was running away in a panic.

"Huh? What about people? ”

Chunniang turned around and saw the silver on the counter, but there was no longer a figure of Bai Qirui outside the counter.

"What's wrong?"

"Just now your cousin Xiaobai came to buy wine, I turned around and took a wine, this kid is gone, the money is on my counter, and the wine is not taken!" Chun Niang put the silver directly into the counter, and smiled like a flower on her face. Looking at it like that, Su Man knew that Bai Qirui must have given a lot of extra silver.

"When you wait to get back, stop by his house and help me bring the wine."

"I don't want it! The next time he comes, you can't give it to him. ”

"How can a businessman be like this, he may not be able to come next time. Ouch, a few days ago, I closed my business for someone for more than half a month, and I lost a lot of business. Now it's the New Year, and it's rare for old customers to come to buy wine. It's just that you don't have a conscience to send a drink, which is not willing!

All day long, just shouting here with just one mouth and shouting Sister Tongchun is good, what's the matter, I don't want to help with any work at all. What's the difference between you and those flowery men who cheat on girls outside......"

"Gotta get it! I was wrong, I was wrong, I'll bring you when I go back. ”

What Su Man can't stand the most is that Chun Niang has it in his ears.

"Oh, by the way, that Lu Ziming is going to go out with Ning Daoshen to practice after the New Year, grandma, you can help take care of it more."

"Hey, Suman, what the hell is going on with you?" Chun Niang sat down next to Su Man, supported her head with her hands, looked at her sideways, and said, "Do you care too much about the kid surnamed Lu?" ”

Hearing this, Su Man raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Chun Niang, who looked like a gossip, and wrinkled his nose and said

"Don't think about it, I care about him as a friend!"

"I don't think about it, I don't care, I've seen your future husband, but he doesn't look like a person with a big heart in this regard. In the future, you will make a fuss about this, and you don't blame me for not reminding you.

Lu Ziming, that kid I've watched for two or three years, is not the person you see as much as you need to take care of. That kid has some axes, but he also has the ability to axes. And you always treat him as a weak scholar, let me tell you that now he has to fight the three of my shop together to restrain that kid.

Everyone will think about the special care you took for him in the past, and even your grandmother regarded you as a prospective granddaughter-in-law. ”

"Poof!" Su Man almost choked on a mouthful of her own saliva, she looked at Chunniang with some horror, and then looked at Li Yuanfang. Seeing that the other party also seemed to agree with Chunniang, Su Man's face also trembled.

"I ...... I...... I just treat him as a little brother, and I've never had anything else in mind, I can swear! ”

"You have to get it, what do we want you to swear, it's good that you know it yourself, and when you marry in the future, you can know that you can avoid it."

In the carriage back, Li Yuanfang looked at Su Man with a confused expression, and rarely saw the other party look so confused. Li Yuanfang suddenly felt a little funny

"Didn't you think of Lu Ziming's feelings for you at all?"

"Hehe......" Su Man could only smile bitterly and said, "Am I stupid!" You all saw it, but I didn't find it. ”

"The authorities are confused, you just put your mind elsewhere, Pei Yuqing's for a while, Yang Muxue's for a while. I know you're a kind-hearted person, but you're not that warm-hearted. Your kindness to Lu Ziming is indeed a little special. ”

"Because Lu Ziming has no father and no mother and an elderly grandmother, this child works so hard to go in but is excluded by the whole class, I just sympathize with him."

“......”

"Actually......" Su Man sighed slightly, "In my place, there was an incident when I was in middle school. ”

"Huh?"

"There was a teenager who fell downstairs, and the teenager was the same age as Lu Ziming, who was bullied back then."

"Did he stumble or ......"

"No, he couldn't stand the verbal violence of his classmates at school, and some classmates would punch and kick him and bully him, and finally chose to commit suicide."

"Suicide?"

"Well, in fact, the middle school I attended at the time was a well-known private school in our area, and my classmates were basically the children of some faceable people in our local area, or they spent a lot of money to transfer from other places. That classmate was a transfer student. ”

"That'...... Why are you bullying that transfer student? ”

"I also heard from my classmates that it was because the boy's mother seemed to have some ambiguity with the father of another classmate. He transferred from his original school because his mother had an affair with the principal of the school, and he had to transfer to our school.

In fact, the child is very good at learning, but his personality is a little withdrawn, and he used to be alone most of the time. Originally, there were only classmates in the school who teased him about his mother, but since he beat that classmate, the bullying at school has really started.

As I said, the classmates are all children of some local faceless families, and the school's punishment is not painful, and the classmate himself does not want anyone to take care of this matter. Things got worse and worse, and then he stabbed a classmate after being bullied. Then he jumped off the school's astronomy tower by himself. ”

"This ......"

In fact, when those classmates bullied him, many of us just watched silently, and no one cared if he was really framed. In my world, people are much more indifferent to each other than people here.

After the boy died, his web log was picked up. I also went to see it, in fact, when the teenager changed schools, he had expectations for the future, and he was looking forward to a new place and a new beginning. He planted the potted alfalfa flowers (four-leaf clover, flowers of hope) in the hallway of the classroom, and many of us thought it was nice to have the flowers in the hallway.

It's just that his mother's scandal affected him after all, and the teenager didn't get good psychological intervention, and he was originally a little withdrawn and more withdrawn, and finally walked on that dead end after being bullied at school. ”

Su Man sighed slightly and said, "At that time, I thought that if someone could help the young man report to the teacher when he was bullied, and testify for him when he was framed, maybe many things would not have come to that point." ”

"So when Lu Ziming was bullied by Huang Hongxuan and them, did you defend him so much?"

"Hmm!" Su Man smiled a little embarrassedly, "Actually, the time when Huang Hongxuan beat Lu Ziming back then was also because I gave him croton, and he thought it was Lu Ziming who did it." Hehe......"

“......”

Before he knew it, he arrived at Bai Qirui's mansion, and Su Man and Li Yuanfang didn't get out of the car, but just sent someone to bring the wine in. Originally, he drove away, and he heard Song Ci's voice outside.

Seeing Su Man's carriage, Song Ci didn't see it at all, but she also saw Bai Qirui not far away. Song Ci's eyes moved slightly, and he stepped forward to greet Su Man.

"Xiaoman, such a coincidence, are you here to see Brother Bai?"

"No, that guy went to Chunniang to buy wine and didn't take it, I just worked as an errand runner. The wine was served, and I was leaving. ”

"Is there anything going on with you later?" Song Ci immediately said, "If it's okay, it just so happens that Yuan Fang is also here, and the three of us haven't been to Yinji Teahouse for a long time, let's go there and sit and chat together." ”

Hearing this, Su Man just looked at Song Ci in front of him, although the other party was asking her, but her eyes glanced at a certain place outside the carriage twice, as if she was deliberately saying it to someone outside.

"I was injured in the field before, and I haven't recovered yet, so I'm a little tired now, so I'll go back and rest today."

"It's okay, then Yuanfang, would you like to go to tea with me?"

"I ......"

"I took Yuanfang out today, so naturally I sent her back. Let's go out for tea together another day! ”

It's just that Song Ci didn't pay attention to Su Man, she just looked at Li Yuanfang directly, and at this moment she seemed to be waiting for Li Yuanfang to choose, making a choice between her and Su Man.

"It's true that I haven't eaten Yinji's tea fruit for a long time, and I miss it a little." Li Yuanfang patted Su Man's hand lightly and said, "Your body hasn't recovered yet, go back first, don't worry, Xiaoci and I will go back after a little sitting." ”

Seeing Song Ci smug at him, Su Man didn't know why, he always felt that this girl had changed a lot when she came back this time. It's just that as soon as Li Yuanfang got out of the carriage, he heard Song Ci shouting Bai Qirui, who was about to enter the mansion in a hurry

"Brother Bai!"

"Uh-huh!" Bai Qirui almost didn't look back, and he wanted to leave twice.

"Yuan Fang and I are going to Yinji for tea together, do you want to go together?"

Song Ci looked at Bai Qirui on the other end and paused for a moment, as if he was hesitating, but in fact, the other party was listening to Li Yuanfang's reaction. And Song Ci didn't notice the unnaturalness of Li Yuanfang beside him at all, and seemed to be very open-minded and asked

"Yuan Fang, you don't mind calling Brother Bai! In fact, he is also very sorry for what happened that day, but he can't find a chance to apologize to you in person. ”

"The things of the day have passed" Li Yuanfang almost clenched his fists and held back all his emotions and said, "I'm sorry Xiaoci, I'm a little uncomfortable, I'll go back with Xiaoman today, and I'll make an appointment with you another day, I'm sorry!" ”

"Wasn't it okay just now" Song Ci immediately grabbed Li Yuanfang's hand, but the hand was very cold, which startled her, and then she looked at Li Yuanfang's almost bloodless face and immediately cared

"What's wrong with you, why are your hands so cold, are they really uncomfortable?"

"It's okay, just go back and rest," Li Yuanfang broke free of Song Ci's hand and immediately returned to Su Man's carriage, trembling a little involuntarily.

I knew something was going to happen!

Su Man got out of the carriage and stared at Song Ci with a somewhat unkind look, which made Song Ci feel a little weak. Then she looked at Bai Qirui and said

"The events of the day, Yuan Fang said that it has passed, and she will not pursue it again, but Bai Shizi should be conscious in the future and stay away from my family Yuan Fang. Everyone didn't know each other that well, and there was no need to interact anymore. Do you hear that? White Chery! ”

"I hear you!"

Bai Qirui's voice was a little hoarse, he looked in the direction of the carriage and said seriously, "Miss Li, I'm very sorry for what happened before. I won't be in front of your eyes again. ”

Sorry, Siying!

After that, Bai Qirui went directly into the house, and if you look closely, you will notice that the other party's steps are a little trembling.

After that, Su Man looked back at Song Ci and said coldly

"Yuan Fang really treats you as a friend, even if she was hurt by you like that, she told me before going to Wujin to accompany you and relieve you. When she comes back, she will continue to treat you as her best friend as if it had never happened. What about you? Is this how good friends are used as an assist for your dating? ”

"I ...... I didn't ......," Song Ci replied with a little weakness.

"Do you know that I don't care about you and that person, you can do whatever you like, just don't involve Yuan Fang in the future. Otherwise, it will be as you said yesterday! ”

Break up?! Su Man actually broke off his friendship with her, and Song Ci felt a little incredible. She really wanted to use Li Yuanfang to ask Bai Qirui to go out together, but it had always been like this in the past. Why did Su Man's reaction be so big this time.

Seeing that Su Man's carriage had already left here, Song Ci really didn't understand why this was going on. If Li Yuanfang could forgive the reckless self so easily, he also said that he would not care about Brother Bai's provocation before, and he would also support himself and Brother Bai. But why is it like that?

Song Ci entered Bai Qirui's mansion with many questions, and Princess Dingxi treated her with a kind and pleasant face, almost doting on her. In fact, these days, Song Ci feels that this princess of Dingxi treats her better than the one who has not seen her own son Bai Qirui for more than ten years.

Because he was often in one place, Song Ci naturally discovered the difference between Princess Dingxi and that concubine, and the external statement was naturally that Bai Qirui was almost Bai Qirui's stand-in in the more than ten years that he was not around. Princess Dingxi's preference for him is reasonable. But in the days when Pei Yuqing left, Bai Qirui abused himself so badly, and Song Ci didn't see how distressed Princess Dingxi was. On the contrary, a few days ago, the concubine and the king of Dingxi were in danger and were slightly injured, and the princess of Dingxi looked like she was about to go crazy.

"Aunt Yue (Princess Xiao Yue'er of Dingxi), I heard my father say that you are going back to Dali in the spring. So ......"

"Silly boy, I naturally care about you and Rui'er. I don't know when the next time I go to Beijing after my father and I go back. We naturally want to choose someone who knows the cold and the hot to take care of him. ”

"Aunt Yue, didn't you think about letting Brother Bai come back to you to take care of you?"

Hearing this, the smile on Princess Dingxi's face froze for a moment, and then smiled slightly and said, "Of course I want Rui'er to accompany me, but my brother likes Rui'er very much and wants to keep him in the capital for a few years." I asked him, and he himself said that he was used to being here and didn't want to leave. Fortunately, I still have Xiang'er by my side, and there is no one around Keruier. ”

Looking at the pretentious look of Princess Dingxi clapping her hands, Song Ci knew that Su Man was right, this Princess Dingxi didn't care about Bai Qirui at all, she only had that concubine in her heart.

After that, Song Ci looked for an excuse to go to Bai Qirui's yard to have a look, but it happened that the other party was not in the yard. She saw that Bai Qirui's study was very messy, so she went in to tidy up for the other party. Bai Qirui is a romantic son in the end, and there are many elegant things in the house.

It's just that when he saw a picture of a beautiful woman at sunset, Song Ci's face suddenly lost all blood. The picture is clearly the scenery of the Xixia Pavilion in Xicheng, but in the pavilion, a woman in pink is extremely expressive in terms of her demeanor and posture. It's just that no matter how you look at it, that person is not Pei Yuqing, but his demeanor and aura have a bit of Li Yuanfang's meaning.

The inscription on the side: Once the sea was difficult to water, except for Wushan is not a cloud. --Yi Siying

Siying, Song Ci was already stunned. She remembered that Su Man had mentioned to her that Li Yuanfang had written a letter to a pigeon fancier under the pseudonym Siying.

It turned out to be her!
