Chapter 39: Night Talk in the Backyard

Bai Ling returned to his courtyard again.

On this day, the small courtyard of the Bai family was also dimly lit as usual.

Bai Shijun's room was lit up - he was probably still revising his manuscript, Bai Ling swept around and didn't see Bai Yi's figure, and his heart suddenly lifted.

It wasn't until she heard the sound of water coming from the backyard that she ran back to the backyard.

Bai Yi was sitting in the yard doing laundry.

He had soapcrosis powder at his left foot, and he was holding a washboard, sitting on a small stool and bending over to scrub his clothes.

There is a candle on the wall next to it - because everyone is busy in their respective positions during the day, and Bai Yi is unwilling to hire someone to live at home for a long time, so he often does these tasks at night.

For a moment, Bai Ling stood around the corner of the backyard and fell silent.

She was sweating profusely because of the anxiety and running along the way, and now the sweat gradually cooled, and her breathing slowly calmed down.

Bai Ling suddenly felt a sense of exhaustion that the whole person was evacuated.

She stood there, silently watching Bai Yi wash his clothes, until Bai Yi raised his hand to wipe his sweat once, and suddenly saw a figure in the corner of the backyard, he was startled at first, and then realized that this person was Bai Ling.

"You're back." Bai Yi was stunned for a moment, "Why is it so late." ”

"Hmm." She nodded, didn't answer, just silently walked over to Bai Yi's side and sat down on a large stone used to dry things near him.

"I have something to say to you......" Bai Ling said softly.

"I have something to say to you," Bai Yi sighed.

Bai Ling made a "please" gesture and motioned for Bai Yi to speak first.

Bai Yi told the conversation that took place in his office in the Tai Hospital today. The more Bai Ling listened, the more frightened he felt.

It turned out that Chen Yicong cared about this......

He cares about Bai Yi's identity.

Bai Ling looked at Bai Yi with an unprecedented gaze, as if he was looking at a stranger.

Over the years, she never thought that the person around her could have an identity other than "brother".

With Bai Yi?

That's really...... That's ridiculous.

She watched Yikang's efforts over the years, and even imagined what it would be like if she really had such a sister-in-law in the future......

Until this moment, Bai Ling looked at Bai Yi, looking at his expression when he spoke, as well as his movements, he couldn't extend any thoughts other than brother and sister.

But, is it really impossible?

She and Bai Yi are originally from different time and space, have their own experiences and pasts, and they will call each other brother and sister, just because of Bai Shijun's upbringing.

But nowadays, there is no such thing as a blood relationship.

Bai Ling frowned slightly.

In the second half of Bai Yi's story, she was not listening at all.

"Boling?" Bai Yi stretched out his hand and waved in front of Bai Ling, "What are you thinking, are you listening to me?" ”

"I hear you." Bai Ling nodded and muttered, "The emperor gave you a marriage to the Lord of Yikang, you don't understand why." ”

"Yes," Bai Yi frowned, "When you enter the palace tomorrow, ask for me...... I don't know if the county lord of Yining went to say something to the emperor, in short, it's really inexplicable-"

Bai Ling suddenly laughed, she looked at Bai Yi's face, and suddenly felt that what she wanted to say was a little unspeakable.

She did a lot of calculations, but she didn't expect that there would be a problem in this link......

"I'm done with everything." Bai Yi said seriously, "You just said that you also have something to tell me?" ”

Bai Ling shook his head, lowered his face slightly, reached out to support his forehead, and gently closed his eyes.

Is it necessary to tell Bai Yi about the little Jiujiu that Chen Yicong was aware of?

In fact, as long as you plan ahead, you can do it.

There is no need to explain why......

"Boling?" Bai Yi looked at Bai Ling, who had a solemn expression, and said with some concern, "What's wrong with you?" ”

"The emperor may have noticed some clues." Bai Ling said softly, her eyes calm, "Today he asked me if I would like to stay in the palace and be his queen." ”

Bai Yi's expression froze for a moment.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Did you turn him down? ”

"Yes," Bai Ling shook his head again, "So, plan ahead. ”

Bai Yi took a deep breath - this is really big news.

"Actually, I think ......," Bai Yi said softly, "If your plan has already implemented many details, wouldn't it be better to follow the original plan?" lest it temporarily disrupt the formation, but give birth to some variables. ”

"Why?"

"I don't really believe he was aware of anything." Bai Yi said softly, "Otherwise, you won't be able to come back tonight, even if he really hears something, he must not believe it in his heart." ”

Bai Ling noddedβ€”yes, I've figured it out.

"But more important," Bai Yi said softly, "if we suddenly run away at this time, it will be too suspicious, Chinese New Year's Eve rowing is a good cover, if you really give up, what other suitable time can you come up with these days?" The day after tomorrow is Laba, it's too late. ”

Bai Ling smiled bitterly.

- Brother, you still don't know much about your current situation.

You are already the emperor's imaginary rival.

Now it's still a marriage, and when you and Yikang Qi oppose it in two days, and would rather go against the Sacred Heart than follow the marriage arrangement, things will go teriorating.

"Laba is definitely too late." Bai Ling thought for a while, "I can only advance as far as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night." ”

Bai Ling said this, and slowly calmed down.

Things have come to this point, and it has come to the eve of the arrow on the bow and has to be sent.

All scruples can be put aside for a while.

So Bai Ling stood up, "I'll go back to the house first and figure it out for myself." ”

"Wait!" Bai Yi shouted at her, "I always feel like you still have something to say...... Did the emperor really not tell you anything else besides this today? ”

Bai Ling turned around, she looked at Bai Yi and didn't speak for a long time.

Bai Yi also stood up, Bai Ling was so strange tonight, he shook off the water in his hands, "What's wrong with you?" ”

"Sometimes I think you're stupid, Bai Yi." Bai Ling suddenly said, "Stupid, straight, and stubborn. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦οΌŸβ€

But after saying this, Bai Ling walked to the front yard without looking back, without explaining a word.

Bai Yi stood there inexplicably, thinking about Bai Ling's words.

He returned to his small bench and continued to rub his clothes, but the splash of cold water suddenly entered his right eye, Bai Yi let out a low snort, and suddenly felt that his eyes were painful.

Instinctively, he leaned back, then kicked over the jar of soap powder beside him.

Bai Yi hurriedly got up to reach the small clay pot that was still spinning in circles not far away, and hooked the edge of the laundry basin with his right foot - only to hear a loud noise, his whole body tripped on the basin, a basin of wet clothes was lifted to the ground, and his whole person fell to the ground head-on.

"......"
