Chapter 78: Justification
Hearing Xu Feiyan say this, Lizi pondered: "Xu Feiyan, this guy, waiting in the living room to see my jokes, if I don't hide, I seem to be afraid of her." Thinking of this, Liz turned and walked towards the living room.
Lizi squeezed out a smile, pretending to be indifferent and walked into the living room, she swept to the seat where Bai Haohong often sat with the corner of her eyes, and saw that Bai Haohong was really there, but Lizi pretended not to see it, deliberately turned her back to Bai Haohong, and said to Xu Feiyan: "Sister Feiyan, I was planning to come over, but I was just going to go back to the room to change clothes first." ”
Usually, as soon as Liz saw Bai Haohong, she affectionately called "Big Brother Bai", walked around Bai Haohong, and kept talking nonsense; Now, Liz seems to be deliberately avoiding Bai Haohong. Xu Feiyan saw it in her eyes and was happy in her heart, she asked sarcastically: "Liz, when did you become so particular?" ”
Without waiting for Lizi to answer, Xu Feiyan continued in a sarcastic tone: "You are really in the limelight today!" I often give speeches, and I can't count the number of original things! It seems that except for musical instruments, there is nothing that is not original, and even Big Brother Bai doesn't know, what kind of palm is 'Eighty Palms of Dragon Descending'? We only know the 'Eighteen Palms of the Dragon'. ”
Liz said disdainfully: "Isn't eighty or eighteen about the same?" There are eight and ten, and there is not one more word. Sister Feiyan, you're too obsessed with names. ”
"You can quibble! What are the characteristics of your original 'pig stick beating method'? ”
"Haven't you heard of 'dog meat can't be served'? What's bad about swapping dog meat for pork? So the 'Pig Stick Method' is an upgraded version of the 'Dog Stick Method'! ”
Bai Haohong shouted, "Liz." ”
When Liz heard Bai Haohong calling herself, she hurriedly pretended to look around, and said while looking for it: "How did I hear Brother Bai calling me." In the end, Lizi turned around and pretended to have just seen Bai Haohong, she pretended to be surprised and said, "Oh, Brother Bai, your light skills are really the peak!" When did you come in? I didn't notice it at all. ”
Du Yiming said: "Liz, don't pretend!" Big Brother Bai has always been here. ”
Bai Haohong smiled slightly and said, "Lizi, let me ask you ......"
Before Bai Haohong's words were finished, Lizi interrupted: "Brother Bai, don't ask, I'm talking nonsense on stage." I didn't get ready yet, so I rushed on the field, and this time I didn't play well, I didn't get the first place, and I failed to live up to your high expectations! I'm guaranteed to win first next year! ”
Xu Feiyan was drinking tea, and when she heard Lizi's words, she almost choked with laughter, and said teasingly: "Listen to the tone, you seem to feel that you are in second place, let me remind you, you are the first from the bottom!" ”
Liz also replied unceremoniously: "Anyway, my talent is still recognized!" Next year, I can still go straight to the finals! Sister Feiyan, can you make it to the finals? ”
"You just said: I guarantee to win the first place next year. Why? Or is it with your stupidity? ”
Lizi said confidently: "Because, I have the highest martial arts among talented women!" I'm going to propose: next year, I will try my martial arts more. ”
Bai Haohong said with a smile: "Lizi, when it comes to martial arts, Zhan Xue asked me to tell you: many of those talented women have been practicing martial arts since they were young, and they are harder than you." Zhan Xue is often invited to the home of talented women to guide, and others have completed the 'Emei Thirty-two Styles' before they are ten years old. ”
"Big Brother Bai, I plan to practice hard from now on."
"I'll talk about the practice later. Liz, what I just wanted to ask is: What did Grandpa Cui say during the meal? ”
"It turns out that Big Brother Bai wants to ask about this, why didn't you say it earlier!" Bai Haohong didn't say a word about his bold words before the game, Lizi's hanging heart finally let go, and she came to Bai Haohong's side as usual, and said with a smile: "Grandpa Cui is very stingy, saying that he is inviting our talented girl, but in fact, he only invited eight-treasure porridge." Fortunately, I brought some 'dragon and phoenix group tea' from the palace, and let our talented girl eat a piece of dim sum in the palace. Then Liz recounted the situation at the banquet in detail.
After Bai Haohong listened, he said to Liz: "You have snot on your body? Why are you still sitting here? Let's go change your clothes, and we'll talk about it tomorrow. ”
"Big Brother Bai, you wait here first, after I finish changing my clothes, I have something important to say."
After Lizi left, Du Yiming said: "Lizi often goes to Fugui Restaurant to eat, and Shopkeeper Zhou has feelings for her, probably deliberately sprinkling condiments such as chili powder on the fruit. ”
Xu Feiyan said: "Where do you want to go, Shopkeeper Zhou already has a wife and a concubine." ”
"The relationship I'm talking about is not a private relationship between men and women, but that Shopkeeper Zhou treats Lizi as a friend and sister, and he doesn't want her to be punished in the palace."
Bai Haohong also nodded and said, "Yes, Shopkeeper Zhou is really a very good person, and it seems that he knows Lizi very well." ”
As she spoke, Liz changed into a pale green dress and walked into the living room, and sat down next to Bai Haohong again. Xu Feiyan said secretly: "Lizi, this guy looks good in everything, fortunately because of her two-hundred-and-five character, otherwise she would have hooked Big Brother Bai a long time ago." ”
Bai Haohong asked Liz: "What's so urgent?" Can't you say it tomorrow? ”
Liz asked rhetorically, "Big Brother Bai, do you know the chief judge of this final?" ”
"He is Jia Jinxiang, a bachelor of Hanlin, I don't know him very well, why do you ask him?"
Lizi recounted what she heard outside the pavilion, of course, she didn't mention the matter of Master Xiang recommending herself, Bai Haohong frowned after hearing it, and said, "In the future, don't mention this matter again!" You're tired today, too, so get some rest early. ”
Liz didn't expect Bai Haohong to react like this, and said unhappily: "People share the secrets they heard with you, but you have this attitude. ”
"It's someone else's private matter, you shouldn't eavesdrop, let alone say it! I don't see you're quite gossipy. ”
"Why? Can they cheat, can't I talk about it? ”
"You don't know, Jia Hanlin's family is poor, and it was his father-in-law who paid for him to study and take the imperial examination. I heard that after he became an official, he relied on his father-in-law's money to dredge his joints and climbed to today's official position step by step. Moreover, although his wife is untalented, she is also literate, honest, and without fault. In these cases, almost everyone among the courtiers knows that if he really wants to divorce his wife, Jia Hanlin will be spurned, and maybe his current position will not be retained, which Jia Hanlin knows very well. Therefore, I don't think it is possible for him to divorce his wife! Jia Hanlin is coaxing and perfunctory Miss Mei, they will eventually break up, if this matter spreads, how will Miss Mei behave in the future? ”
Du Yiming said: "I also think that under the pressure of public opinion, Jia Hanlin will most likely not divorce his wife for the sake of his own future. Is Jia Hanlin's father-in-law dead? ”
"I don't know." Bai Haohong replied.
