Chapter Eighty-Four: A New Home

The song in the garden of the forest house was sung all night.

The two girls stayed from late at night until dawn, and when the time came, the main entrance of the theater garden was pushed open, and the old housekeeper stood outside with people.

"That's it." The old butler's face was completely different from last night's humility, "The two girls have worked hard. ”

Several family members came to the stage from the side and helped Ai Songqing, who was kneeling on the ground, up, but as soon as he stood up, Ai Songqing felt that his feet were so numb that he couldn't walk—he didn't think that the nearby family members didn't drag her down directly, but carefully let go of his hand and waited for her to recover.

"The two girls sang here all night, they must be hungry now, right?" The old butler laughed with him, "There are some breakfast snacks prepared in the courtyard outside-"

"Thank you," Bai Ling coughed a few times, her voice already hoarse, "Is there any water?" ”

"Yes! Yes, there is! The old housekeeper hurriedly turned around, and another housekeeper handed over the teapot and teacup he had brought with him, and the old housekeeper himself poured water and handed it to the stage.

Bai Ling was a little surprised for a moment—she still remembered how arrogant the old butler was last night. At this moment, the attitude suddenly changed...... I don't know what happened.

After drinking tea to moisten their throats, Bai Ling and Ai Songqing left the place with the butler.

Before leaving, the two walked to the coffin and bowed slightly, which was regarded as a farewell.

……

On the way back, everyone was silent.

In the car, Bai Ling fell asleep on Ai Songqing's shoulder.

Ai Songqing vaguely felt that everyone was looking at her and Bai Ling with strange eyes, but when she met those gazes, the others avoided them again.

After staying up all night, it was time to be tired, but Ai Songqing was not sleepy at all, she clenched her knees on the bumpy carriage, and everything that had happened last night lingered in her mind.

The sunlight poured down through the cracks in the car window and burned on Ai Songqing's arm, slightly hot;

Bai Ling's body and head pressed against her side, a little heavy;

The creaking of the car came from under their seats......

All the touches, all the sounds, made Ai Songqing feel a strange strangeness, probably the first time in his life to be so brave, as if he had broken a certain chain overnight - obviously still imprisoned in the carriage and horses at the moment, but suddenly felt that everything in the world could be done.

The car soon stopped at a certain alley in Baihuaya, the curtain was lifted from the outside by the turtle paws, and the girls got out of the car.

The bustard mother was waiting not far away and came to greet her in person.

And on the tall buildings on both sides of this street and alley, many people poked out, waiting for these girls who came back from the Lin family.

- Everyone wants to know what kind of person is the person who turned almost half of the flowers over last night.

Escorted by the turtle paws, Ai Songqing and Bai Ling slowly walked forward in the crowd.

Ai Songqing hugged Bai Ling's arm, "...... Why are they all looking at us? ”

Bai Ling didn't answer, she also guessed in her heart.

Not far away, the bustard lady came to them quickly, they looked much more haggard than the previous days, and apparently they had not slept well last night.

- After all, last night Chen Yicong left with his front foot, and the turtle paws passed the news back to Bustard Niang.

The details of what happened in the Lin Mansion coupled with the bustard's own experience last night, she soon had her own guess - among these girls, it is very likely that there is the person who was involved by the noble man last night.

But the blame is here, the Jinyi guard attacked Baihuaya at night, which has not happened for many years......

The noble man made such a big commotion, but in the end he didn't take anyone away...... What's going on?

…… There are only two reasons.

One, the girl didn't want to leave, so she stayed.

The bustard mother herself first snorted in her mind - she didn't want to leave when she first came? The beautiful girls who were sold from the poor countryside may be, these girls who came from the teaching department can have their eyes high to the sky, how can there be any reason why they are unwilling to leave......

So the other one?

The nobleman searched for a long time, but in the end, he didn't find the person he was looking for in these girls.

This speculation is obviously much more reasonable than the previous one...... But relying on her intuition after so many years of operation, she feels that things may not be so simple.

The nobles who come and go in and out of the Hundred Flowers are like carp crossing the river, nothing is rare, but the black-robed man last night can actually make Jinyiwei listen to his orders - Jinyiwei is the emperor's right and left hand, and he can borrow this level by taking advantage of the situation, but he is afraid of that person's status...... and under one man and above ten thousand.

But the bustard mother only felt that his face was raw - this night she went through all the people in the capital who were ranked in her head, and she couldn't find a suitable person who could match this position.

Bustard Niang has mixed feelings.

She walked up to the girls and coughed softly, then reluctantly raised the corners of her mouth for a softer expression.

"A few ...... from the Department of Teaching Come with me. ”

The bustard girl turned, and the six girls who had been picked out of the tower also came out of the line, followed her, and slowly disappeared into the next street.

Bai Ling and Ai Songqing walked behind, and they soon realized that the road did not lead to the pear orchard or the old tower.

The bustard led them slowly towards the center of the Hundred Flowers, and finally stopped under another tower.

Also towers, this place is obviously much newer and taller than where they used to live.

A couple of young women in Luo skirts held hands and descended the stairs and laughed past them—there were apparently other girls living there.

"All go up." The bustard pointed to the stairs.

The stairs are so narrow that they can barely accommodate one person. The six girls who came back from the forest house slowly went up to the top floor under the guidance of the bustard mother and the turtle paws.

Ai Songqing was about to enter the house, and suddenly found that Bai Ling did not follow, she glanced back and saw that Bai Ling was standing in the shadow of the corridor, not knowing what she was looking at.

"Boling?"

Bai Ling quickly came back to his senses, "Here we are." ”

It wasn't until they stepped through the door that Bai Ling and Ai Songqing realized that all the companions who had lived in the old tower had moved over.

There is a bed, a window, a table and a stool, and a few scattered toiletries on the table...... Although everything is very simple, it is much better than the dim and dirty old tower.

"From now on, I'll give you another place to live." The bustard pulled the corners of her mouth, "It's time to start learning some skills." ”

The girls nodded obediently.

The bustard turned around to leave, and suddenly turned back as if she remembered something, "...... Which two of you sang on stage last night? ”

A few girls who had gone to the Lin Mansion together looked at Bai Ling and Ai Songqing.

For a while, everyone's eyes fell on them.

Bai Ling looked at the bustard and replied softly, "It's us." ”

"Oh......"

The bustard looked at the two of them deeply, and looked Bai Ling and Ai Songqing up and down.

"Yes," she laughed, the flesh on her face huddled together, "it's good to be willing to fight here." ”
