Chapter 593: Sincerity
"Speaking of which, Su'er's knees are too thin." Second Lady Wen said slowly, "Because of your stomach fighting, there is only Zong'er left in the first year after entering the door, and I and the Hou Ye are very satisfied with you...... Therefore, in the past few years, I have never taken care of the affairs in the children's room, even if the old lady muttered to me that the knees of the children are too thin, and there is only one sister-in-law after a few years of marriage, I have never put pressure on you. ”
Second Lady Wen's words were slow and gentle, but when Bai Shi listened, he became more and more frightened.
"Now Zong'er is also older," Second Lady Wen finally said meaningfully, "I should also have a companion." ”
Bai couldn't see anything on her face, and after a while, she lowered her head respectfully and responded: "Yes, my daughter-in-law will definitely take good care of Aunt Jiao, so that Aunt Jiao can wait for childbirth with peace of mind." ”
When they returned to the main courtyard of the Bai family, the Bai family sat in the chair with some weakness in his hands and feet.
Her personal maid Qimei brought her a cup of hot tea and whispered, "...... Did Madame sense something? ”
It was obviously a hot summer, but Bai's hands were as cold as ice cubes in an ice cellar.
She held the cup of hot tea, and her slightly trembling hand gradually stabilized.
"What are you afraid of," Bai's voice was a little low, "haven't we done anything yet?" What could she perceive? It's just beating me. ”
Qimei hesitated: "That ......"
"Shut up," Bai slowly calmed down and raised his eyes to look at Qimei, "It's better to 'spoil' Aunt Jiao as before." ”
Qimei nodded understandingly, looked at the sunlight that was shining in through the window, and said softly, "...... Would you like to take a nap? ”
"No, you go and bring that needlework basket," Bai raised his hand and beat his somewhat sore waist, "There are still a few stitches in that little dress, I'll make it quickly." ”
"Why don't you do it for you?"
"Then all the work will be wasted," Bai said leisurely, "This kind of thing, naturally, must be done in person, and sincerity is enough." ”
……
Jiang Baoqing took a nap, opened the curtain hanging down in front of the bed, and shouted "water".
Soon a maid came in with water, but instead of looking for willows, she was looking for cloves.
Lilac respectfully sent the water to Jiang Baoqing, Jiang Baoqing took it and drank it, and asked casually, "Where is the willow?" ”
Jiang Baoqing originally just asked casually, but Ding Xiang knelt down in some trepidation.
Lilac wore a light purple gauze with goose yellow trim today, and her slender figure knelt in front of the bed, which made people a little unbearable to look at.
Jiang Baoqing is still wearing a nap bed, because he is newly married, this bedgown is embroidered with red soft satin, close and soft, even if he just woke up, it also lined Jiang Baoqing's complexion like a delicate rose.
She was slightly surprised, the sentence "What is going on", before she could say it, she saw that the curtain outside was lifted, and Gong Ji strode in, seeing this situation, she paused slightly, but asked for Jiang Baoqing: "What's wrong?" ”
Lilac got up from the ground in a panic and stammered "No, it's nothing".
Gong Ji didn't care, and smiled in a good mood: "This girl was reckless when she was a child." Obviously, he didn't take this matter to heart, and strode forward and pressed Jiang Baoqing's shoulders slightly: "Don't get up, I'll go back to the study and get some important books, and come over to see you by the way." ”
Jiang Baoqing couldn't help but laugh: "Fake public and private." ”
Gong Ji kissed Jiang Baoqing on the cheek and waved his hand: "Okay, you stay, I'll go to the study and get something and go back." ”
The corners of Jiang Baoqing's mouth couldn't suppress the tendency to pick up: "Well, go ahead." ”
She sat lazily on the bed and watched the palace plan stride out of the door.
Lilac wanted to speak and stopped, and when the movement of Gong Ji gently closing the door with her backhand came, she whispered: "...... Doesn't grandma have to go to see off uncle? ”
Jiang Baoqing didn't answer, but remembered what happened to Fang Cai, looked at Lilac, and smiled: "You haven't said it yet, I asked where Miliu went, why did you kneel?" Seeing that Lilac was about to kneel down again, Jiang Baoqing hurriedly raised his hand to stop him with a headache, "If you have something to say, don't kneel." ”
Lilac lowered her head slightly, and said with some uneasiness: "...... Grandma, doesn't she like slaves? ”
"What do you mean by that?" Jiang Baoqing was stunned.
Lilac Bei bit her lower lip lightly, and the cherry lips, which were originally a little crimson, suddenly turned slightly white: "...... Most of the weekday work in grandma's house is for Sister Miliu. The slave is afraid that she is too stupid, and she has done something wrong, which will make her grandmother disgusted......"
The corners of her eyes were red, and she was clearly about to cry.
"......" Jiang Baoqing felt a little headache.
There's nothing to say about it.
She has only been with Miliu for a long time, so naturally she likes to do many things, which is not prejudice or anything.
Jiang Baoqing is like a catkins fluttering in the spring breeze, looking gentle and gentle, but it is actually extremely difficult to open his heart to make people close.
is like looking for willows, they have experienced a lot together, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they were born and died, and their friendship is naturally extraordinary.
However, the question raised by Lilac is indeed true, since she has become married to Gong Ji, such a reuse of the maids she brought will inevitably make the original maids in Jingxuan a little worried.
Thinking like this, Jiang Baoqing bowed slightly towards Lilac: "...... This is not your problem, I will pay attention to it later. ”
Ding Xiang glanced up at Jiang Baoqing with some sincere fear, and then lowered her head again, and her graceful voice was a little low: "...... Grandma was serious. ”
It wasn't until Lilac went out that Jiang Baoqing remembered that she had just casually asked where Mi Liu had gone, who would have wanted to cause Lilac to react so much.
So, where did Miliu go?
……
At this time, Miliu took leave, and spoke to a man in front of him in a low voice in the alley next to the back door of the forest in the southwest corner of the Dingguo Marquis's Mansion: "...... What are you doing here? ”
The man was a little unhappy, but his eyes fell on the orange trimmed flower-collared gauze on Mi Liu's body, and his expression was obviously restrained.
He had seen this material in the cloth village in the north of the city, and each horse cost five taels of silver!
The man hurriedly put a courteous smile on his face: "It's not that I haven't seen you for some days, and I have thought about it." ”
As he spoke, he wanted to take Liu's hand.
Miliu endured and endured, but still didn't hold back, avoiding the man's hand.
The man's face changed.
"Right now, grandma has just married in, and it's the time to be busy," Mi Liu said quickly, "If there is nothing to do, don't let people pass me any more." If someone knows, they don't know how to arrange our grandmother. ”
After speaking, Mi Liu looked left and right, and saw that there was no one around, so he cautiously turned around and added, "I will go home when I have a leave, and I will look for you when the time comes", and left in a hurry.
The man looked at the figure of Mi Liu leaving in a hurry, he was entangled, and he didn't dare to make trouble in the Hou Mansion, so he had to spit on the ground with hatred.
At this moment, the corner door on the side of the tall wall, which had been locked, creaked open, and a woman poked her head out from behind the door, looked the man up and down with a pair of small eyes that were shining, and shouted: "That little brother, I have something to ask you......
