Chapter 15: Father and Daughter Meet
Cuilan stared at the farmer who knocked on the door and then turned back to Ding Ning's house, she wanted to tell the person in front of her that she had to ask her girl first, but this person obviously didn't want to wait. Cuilan saw the gesture of the man in front of her who didn't want to wait and asked:
"What is the relationship between you and my girl? We only moved in today, so how do you know it's the people you want to meet? ”
The farmer said bluntly:
"I'm Wanting's father. My carriage will arrive later. ”
Cuilan listened to the farmer's words and looked at his dress again in disbelief.
In the room, Ding Ning saw that Cuilan had not come back for a long time and walked out of the yard to look, and as soon as the farmer saw Ding Ning, he rushed in regardless of Cuilan's obstruction, and shouted while hurrying:
"Ting'er, Ting'er......"
Ding Ning was startled by the shout and the unfamiliar face, and stood at the door of the room in a daze, his hand grasping the door frame as much as possible to make himself look less flustered and trembling.
Ding Ning reacted to the identity of this person as quickly as possible, she neatly observed this person's clothes, and carefully looked at his footsteps and posture as he ran away, and she read the "Ting'er" one by one. Ding Ning had a strong feeling that the person in front of him was Baili Wanting's father, Baili Xi. But the clothes are wrong, how can Bailixi be dressed as a peasant.
Seeing that the farmer was getting closer and closer, Ding Ning wanted to speak, but he didn't dare to speak, saying too many mistakes, Ding Ning felt that the best way for him to do it now was to not say a word and wait for someone to speak first.
Sure enough, before the farmer could reach Ding Ning, he spoke:
"Ting'er, my father can finally get together with you, do you remember my father?"
Ding Ning looked at the farmer in front of her and still didn't dare to speak, she didn't know Bailixi, and Luo Xicheng only let her know some of Baili Wanting's temper and personality in order to make her really amnesia. Ding Ning could only remain quiet.
Baili Xi still didn't react when he saw Baili Wanting in front of him, and he was sure that his daughter really had amnesia. He looked at his daughter carefully and then spoke:
"Ting'er, dressing up like this for your father makes Ting'er unbelievable? If Ting'er doesn't believe that it is for her father, she can ask Luo Xicheng to identify her, and her father's motorcade will be able to enter the city before sunset, and Ting'er will be able to identify her father's identity at that time.
Ding Ning only spoke at this time:
"Cuilan, you go and invite Master Luo. I took my father into the house first. ”
Cuilan looked at Ding Ning, a little worried, and thought that there were still two girls in the kitchen, so she closed the door with confidence and asked Luo Xicheng to come over.
At this time, Ding Ning had already brought Baili Xi to the upper seat of the main house and sat down, Ding Ning still didn't say a word, she leisurely tasted tea one by one, looking comfortable and gentle. Baili Xi observed the daughter in front of him very carefully, although he usually didn't care about his daughter.
Bailixi saw that the daughter in front of him was gentle and generous both in her sitting posture and in her drinking tea posture, exactly the same as before the amnesia, and he was roughly sure that the identity of this daughter was real, just amnesia. Bailixi looked at this daughter in a state of amnesia and still tried uneasily:
"What do you remember about Ting'er's past?"
Ding Ning quietly cleared his throat and said:
Back to her father, Wanting still can't remember too much of the past, and she looks forward to her father's arrival sooner every day. Luo Gongzi said that I was here to have a wedding with him, and I believed it. ”
Baili Xi heard this without any flaws and continued to test several times, but fortunately, Ding Ning was smart enough, and every temptation was skillfully resolved by Ding Ning. It was only a moment before Ding Ning heard the sound of outsiders arriving first:
"The father-in-law came, but the son-in-law failed to come to greet him, and I hope that the father-in-law will forgive the sins."
As soon as the words fell, Luo Xicheng appeared in front of Ding Ning and Bailixi, Luo Xicheng looked at Ding Ning with a smile on his face, this was the first time Ding Ning saw Luo Xicheng smile, it turned out that he could smile like this, but there was no temperature in this sunshine. This kind of trained laughter Ding Ning understands and understands, because all the girls in the Spring Man Pavilion laugh like this, sometimes they laugh so much that they don't even remember whether they are really happy.
Bailixi was very happy when he saw Luo Xicheng's smile on his face, and replied with a smile:
"Where is this, virtuous son-in-law, it is my fault that I did not send someone to inform you, so that you have to take time out of your busy schedule."
Luo Xicheng carefully looked at the clothes of his father-in-law in front of him, his heart was like a mirror, but he was deliberately puzzled in his eyes. How could Bailixi not know Luo Xicheng's doubts, and after a pause, Bailixi smiled:
"I'm dressed like this, don't be surprised by a virtuous son-in-law. I had already entered the city in this form, so that I could see for myself how my son-in-law treated my little girl. I saw that the virtuous son-in-law personally went to the ground to plant flowers for the little girl, and arranged this yard exquisitely and beautifully, which was really attentive! This morning, you told the driver to drive slower and pay attention to safety all the way, and I saw it too. The virtuous son-in-law has a heart. ”
What Bailixi said was exactly what Luo Xicheng expected, but Luo Xicheng still sighed modestly and said:
"Wanting married here from so far north, it is understandable that my father-in-law cares, how can I say something to blame. My father-in-law cherishes Wanting so much, and I will love her like my father-in-law in the future. ”
Luo Xicheng expected that the last sentence was what Bailixi wanted to hear the most, not because of how much he loved his daughter, but because he wanted to use his care and care for Baili Wanting in exchange for Luo Xicheng's absolute trust in him and endless cooperation in the future.
Bailixi's heart was full of joy when he heard Luo Xicheng's words, and said with a smile:
"I cherish my daughter so much, and now I must believe that my son-in-law will treat her sincerely."
Luo Xicheng said with a smile:
"We're a family, so I'll have something to say."
"Son-in-law, please speak." Baili Xi Road
"The wedding was repeatedly postponed due to Wanting's injury earlier, but now Wanting is in good health, and everything about the wedding has been prepared, just waiting for the arrival of the father-in-law and the eldest brother, the day after tomorrow is an auspicious day, I wonder if the eldest brother and his party can arrive the day after tomorrow?" Luo Xicheng said
"Don't worry, Brother Ting'er will be here later, and it won't affect the wedding the day after tomorrow."
Ding Ning was a little dissatisfied when he heard this, since the day after tomorrow was the wedding, why didn't Luo Xicheng explain when he came today, why did he hide her in the dark, what did she have to hide as a chess piece. But thinking of this, Ding Ning seems to have figured it out again, yes, she is a chess piece, who cares about the feeling of a chess piece! Isn't she, as a chess piece, where the master puts her, she should be there! Ding Ning was relieved when he thought of this, and he smiled with a shallow hint of displeasure and self-deprecation, without a trace.
Luo Xicheng always has the ability to capture any subtle expressions of others, or he will only use this ability on Ding Ning all the time. But now that Baili Xi is here, Luo Xicheng is not good at asking Ding Ning something. He just kept his eyes on Ding Ning's eyes for a moment.
In Bailixi's eyes, Luo Xicheng looked at his daughter with love. Bailixi is very satisfied with all this he has seen with his own eyes, everything warm and beautiful, and he is very satisfied with the road he paved for his son with his daughter as a chess piece! If he knew that the current Baili Wanting was just a stand-in for his daughter, I don't know if he would collapse and be lost.
At dinner, Luo Xicheng asked his subordinates to prepare a table full of delicacies, and he and Ding Ning accompanied Baili Xi for dinner and chatted for a while. When the night was getting deeper, Baili Wanting's brother Bailimu and his party rushed to Bailiju. Luo Xicheng and Bailimu exchanged a few simple words, and when they saw that they were tired all the way, they left on their own.
When Luo Xicheng left, Ding Ning sent him out, Luo Xicheng opened the person next to him when he was at the door, looked at Ding Ning's eyes, and told Ding Ning very seriously:
"Don't be afraid, you can live in Luofu only tomorrow, the day can't be any earlier, I'm afraid that the old man will be suspicious in advance." I'm going to be busy with some wedding matters tomorrow, so I can only leave it to you here, don't panic if you encounter any urgent matters, let Cuilan go to me. In addition, the plum fragrance and Caihe who cook on the fire in your house are trustworthy girls, and you can rest assured. ”
Ding Ning also felt Luo Xicheng's tenderness and care for the first time, the serious eyes and delicate and soft words seemed to be putting on a thick talisman for her, Ding Ning didn't know what to say, but gratitude was necessary, so Ding Ning also thanked Luo Xicheng gently and softly as never before:
"Wan Ting thanked Luo Gongzi."
Luo Xicheng heard Ding Ning's words of thanks and turned to leave, and the moment he turned around, an irrepressible smile leaked from the corner of his mouth, he didn't know that this was the first time he had smiled from the bottom of his heart since taking over the Luo family, the night was thick, and Ding Ning didn't see this memorable smile clearly. Ding Ning stood at the door and watched Luo Xicheng walk away before turning around and going back to the house.
When Bailimu saw Ding's sister coming back, he couldn't help but quip:
"Sister, this send-off is out of the path? It took so long to come back. Are you about to get married and are you reluctant to part for a moment? ”
Ding Ning naturally knew that this was a joke by Baili Wanting's brother to his sister. Ding Ning didn't say anything, but deliberately smiled shyly. Seeing his sister's shy expression, Bailimu knew the relationship between the two in his heart. But even though he loved his sister, he never forgot his father's entrustment. Father asked him to call Baili Wanting forward. Thinking of this, Bai Limu changed his slightly serious expression and said:
"Ting'er, my father is looking for you."
As soon as Ding Ning heard this, her heart beat a drum, she and Luo Xicheng performed very well, why did they call her to go late at night, could it be that Bailixi still had doubts about her? Ding Ning thought so, and he could only come to block the water and cover the ground, and take one step at a time.
Ding Ning came to Bailixi, and stood for a while before he spoke:
"Although you lost your memory due to an accident, I still want to tell you something you need to know. Your mission here is not to find someone who loves you, you are here to make our Baili family stronger. Today, I came here in disguise to tell Luo Xicheng that my Baili family values your daughter, and if he marries you, he must also attach importance to the Baili family, and he must cooperate with the Baili family. You also have to always remember what I warned you before you set off from Baili's house, find out Luo Xicheng's relationship chain, and let his relationships be used by my Baili family......"
Ding Ning didn't mean to listen to it, but somehow, she felt a little sad for Baili Wanting. From Bailixi's words, Ding Ning could hear that Bailixi didn't care about Baili Wanting, she clearly heard Bailixi say that he only came in disguise today, and what he said in front of Luo Xicheng was that he had arrived some time ago. Obviously, this Bailixi planted eyeliner beside them, and this eyeliner told Bailixi about Luo Xicheng's every move, so Bailixi could have that remark in front of Luo Xicheng today. Poor Baili Wanting was born in such a mansion. Fortunately, she also has a Barimu who seems to care about her.
After some warnings and an agreement that must be kept, Ding Ning came out of Bailixi's room. As soon as she came out, she saw her brother Bailimu standing outside the door, Ding Ning was afraid that Bailixi would hear it, so she stepped forward and asked Bailimu why she didn't go back to the room to rest and stand here, but before she could speak, Bailimu couldn't wait to step forward and make a quiet gesture, and said in a low voice:
"Is my father embarrassed my sister?"
"No, brother, go and rest, run all the way, let's talk about it again tomorrow." Ding Ning replied with a smile.
"I have something to say to my sister."
"Brother, please speak."
"If my father and I had put aside what we were doing that day and come with my sister, my sister would not have been in danger. My heart was full of reproach along the way. Seeing that my sister is still intact today, the guilt in my heart has not diminished at all. Mu wants to beg his sister for forgiveness. Bai Limu said this sincerely, but Ding Ning also heard from these words that Bai Limu was a person who obeyed his father's orders.
"Brother doesn't have to mind, sister is fine now. Brother should go back to the house and rest, the boat is tired, and there is no need to blame himself so much. ”
After some persuasion, Bailimu went back to the room to rest, but Ding Ning was very tired, and he couldn't sleep when he returned to the room. Lying on the bed, Ding Ning was thinking in her heart, Luo Xicheng said that he bought this garden when he looked beautiful, but in the conversation between Bailixi and Luo Xicheng, she understood that this was just a house with a quiet environment, and the flowers in the house were all planted by Luo Xicheng. He is so attentive just because she Ding Ning likes flowers? No, why did he say he bought it single-handedly? — To show off! — Show off in front of me, show off if he's willing to spend a lot of money for me!
Thinking of this, Ding Ning's heart suddenly swayed, but she immediately pressed it back, she tried to fall asleep, she was going to be alone tomorrow, she needed to recuperate.
