As he spoke, he turned back to the shopkeeper and said, "Shopkeeper, the county lord's guest has arrived!" ”

When the shopkeeper heard this, he hurriedly walked out and replaced the guy to receive Bai Yaozu, and saw that the other guests who were eating looked sideways, everyone knew that the shopkeeper of Tianyi Pavilion would not come out to greet the guests, but he didn't expect that a guest he didn't know well would be so enthusiastic, and they were a little surprised, and they all guessed that this old man was not a big man, right?

Bai Yaozu took his wife and children to a small family, accepted the slightly envious gaze of everyone, went up to the second floor, and the shopkeeper led them into the private room of Tianyi Pavilion.

Pushing open the door, Bai Hibiscus was already sitting there, and standing on the left and right were her personal girls, mandarin ducks, magpies, green luans and cuckoos. Next to him is Mama Rui with a smile on her face.

Bai Muhibiscus saw Bai Yaozu and said with a smile: "Second uncle, second aunt, sit down......

Bai Yaozu and Meng sat down with some restraint, and the children were still timid, estimating that the familiar and unfamiliar feeling of Bai Hibiscus made them uncomfortable.

Bai Mujin said softly: "Shopkeeper, arrange for the food!" ”

The shopkeeper respectfully agreed, and closed the door casually before going out, Bai Mujian smiled and said: "Yesterday in the house, you also saw it, in order to eat this meal more happily, I invite you to come to Tianyi Pavilion, the environment here is elegant, the taste of the dishes is also excellent, even if it is the chef of the imperial dining room, it may not be able to make such a good dish, you will taste it later!" ”

Bai Yaozu said with a smile: "The county lord is gracious, we are honored!" ”

"Now there are no outsiders, so you don't have to shout one by one, just call me Jin'er as in the past, I remember the time when my mother first died, I was only three years old, and I was afraid that I would always have nightmares, thanks to the second aunt who accompanied me for several nights, this kindness, Jin'er has always been grateful in my heart!" Bai Mujian's smile was a little more warm, although Meng also had his own little abacus, but he really felt a little pity for her.

In her previous life, on the eve of her marriage to Li Jizong, Bai Yaozu and Meng were also there, and Meng also accompanied her for a long time, saying everything that should have been said to her by Lu. also specially instructed her that if she marries such a family, she must pay attention to herself, and she must not blindly dig out her heart and lungs, and in the end she will harm herself. It's a pity that her heart was all on Li Jizong at that time, and she didn't listen to anything.

Although it is not a great kindness, it is no less than a little warmth in the snow for her, a person who has been abandoned by all those who love her dearest and dearest. She is a person who has revenge, but she is definitely a person who has kindness, and whoever treats her well, she will repay it tenfold.

When Bai Yaozu and Meng Shi heard this, their original hearts and the feeling of being unfamiliar and polite immediately dissipated. Meng Shi smiled from the bottom of his heart and said, "Since we met yesterday, I have been muttering in my heart, I always feel as if you have changed as a person, and now it seems that there are always some things that have not changed." Ay...... I and your mother are concubines, I entered the door later, although she was born in a family, but she is the most kind person, we are not like other family concubines, face and heart do not match, all take each other as their own sisters, how do you know that it didn't take long, she ......"

The first year that Meng Shi entered the door was the year when Lu Wanqin died, maybe a lot of friction didn't have time to happen, and the relationship was just at the best time, and Lu Wanqin died. Therefore, Meng's impression of Lu Wanqin has always been good, and he always misses it.

Bai Mujin was slightly moved, and recalled: "I also remember that at that time, the second aunt just had Weiran and Yanran, and my mother was also pregnant with Chen'er, so you often took me to sit in the yard, work as a female worker, drink tea, and the second aunt often made rice cakes for me to eat!" ”

Meng Shi seemed to have returned to when he was a wife for the first time, his smile became tranquil and warm, and he said: "I didn't expect that in a blink of an eye, more than ten years have passed, you are so old, and you have become the county lord, if your mother knows, she must be very happy!" ”

Bai Mujin said: "Maybe, the second aunt has suffered a lot with the second uncle outside over the years, right?" This time...... Are you still planning to leave Beijing? ”

Mentioning this topic, Bai Yaozu finally found the conversation and said: "According to Jin'er, should I stay in Beijing, or should I continue to go out?" ”

Bai Mujin smiled, and he also admired Bai Yaozu's intelligence, and when he asked, he was testing whether he had the ability to let him stay in Beijing. Bai Mujin said: "Then it depends on the second uncle's mind, there is freedom to be released, and there are benefits to staying in Beijing, what does the second uncle think?" ”

She kicked the ball back again, Bai Yaozu stroked his beard, and said: "Yanran and Weiran are also older, and the viscount has also reached the age when it is time to study well, I think it is better to stay in the capital, in the end, the family is here, and my mother is also old, I always have to take Huan's knees and do my duty!" ”

Meng Shi also said: "Yes, we have been floating outside for so many years, Yanran and Weiran are not as good as the nobles in Beijing, I also feel sorry for them in my heart, speaking of which, they are also serious young ladies of the Hou Mansion, no worse than anyone else!" ”

Bai Mujin took a look at Yan Ran and Wei Ran, these two girls are also Peugeot, they are tied, they are indeed a little angry, and then they said: "The second uncle and the second aunt are also reasonable, but if you want to stay in Beijing, you will inevitably see each other often in the future, and you will not see a word, now that I am in the Bai family, you have also seen that because of Aunt Lu's matter, my father and I have a lot of dislikes!" ”

Bai Yaozu didn't wait for Bai Muhibiscus to finish speaking, and asked: "What's going on, I only know something in my mother's letter, but I don't know in detail, how did this Lu family become an aunt again?" ”

"When my mother had a son, she was with my father...... A few days ago, my father sued me in front of the emperor and accused me of seven crimes, and my grandmother was angry for a while, so she took it out, and the emperor ordered the Bai family to degrade the Lu family as a concubine, saying that she was a woman who was at a loss! Bai Hibiscus did not shy away from saying it.

When Meng Shi heard this, he was surprised and said, "No wonder...... No wonder your mother always said something unlucky before giving birth, I was just worried about whether she could give birth to a child smoothly, but I didn't expect it...... She knew about it! That Lu Ningxiang is also shameless, but her sister-in-law is her own sister! ”

Bai Mujin laughed and said, "What about my sister, who made my mother get in her way?" According to her biological mother's identity, even if she is also a daughter of the Lu family, but she will definitely not find any good family, at that time, my father also inherited the title of the Duke of Guo, and she was young, she naturally wanted to find a good future for herself! ”

Bai Yaozu slapped the table and said, "Big brother is so confused, isn't this insulting...... No wonder the saint will belittle him, my father taught us when he was alive that we should be upright and have a clear conscience, he ...... He...... What a ......."

Bai Muhibi smiled and reassured: "Second uncle don't be excited, this matter is in the past, there is no need to mention it again." There are many misunderstandings between me and my father, I'm afraid I won't be able to solve them for a while, if you stay in the house, you can avoid it, I will only say this once, you just write it down! ”

Bai Yaozu is a smart person, so he naturally understood as soon as he heard it, this is Bai Mu Hibiscus reminding himself, don't get involved in the current infighting in Baifu, don't help each other, and protect yourself.

Bai Yaozu and Meng Shi glanced at each other and immediately said, "Hey...... In the end, it is a matter between your father and daughter, I think I am powerless, but Jin'er, the second uncle still wants to remind you, he is your father in the end, you should bear with it more! ”

Bai Mujin smiled, knowing that Bai Yaozu accepted her conditions, if you want to stay in Beijing, you have to know how to advance and retreat, if you don't know what to do, help the people of the Bai family toss, she can let him stay in Beijing, and she can also let him leave quickly.

"The second uncle is reasonable, Jin'er has written it down, today's meal is not only for the second uncle and the second aunt to pick up the wind and wash the dust, but also to congratulate the second uncle on staying in Beijing to serve!" White hibiscus expressed himself vaguely.

Bai Yaozu and Meng Shi were happy at the same time, picked up the teacup, and said, "Then the second uncle will replace the wine with tea, thank you for the county lord's kindness!" ”

Soon the dishes were served, and the shopkeeper brought two bottles of jade liquid elixir as usual, and said, "County Lord...... This is a treasure, ordered by the master, specially kept for you! ”

Bai Mujin was a little uncomfortable for a moment, and then said: "Thank you shopkeeper, it will be settled in a while!" ”

She doesn't want to always eat and drink for nothing, and it's not the restaurant she opened, it's always like this, it's too much, she is not Feng Jiuqing or anything.

Looking at the dizzying delicacy on the table, Bai Yaozu exclaimed: "No wonder I often hear people praise Tianyi Pavilion in the capital outside, the first floor in the world, just looking at this dish is also mouthwatering!" ”

Bai Mujin greeted: "Second uncle, second aunt, brothers and sisters, you don't have to be polite, they are all in the family, eat more if you like to eat!" ”

The meal was enjoyed by the guests and hosts, and Bai Yaozu and Meng Shi were not stupid, knowing that Bai Muhibiscus not only came to invite them to dinner, but more importantly, they wanted them to take a clear position and not stand on the wrong team indiscriminately.

After everyone negotiated, it was naturally an endless family relationship, and after a few glasses of wine, Meng couldn't even help but pull Bai Hibiscus, recalling the old past, or even shedding a few tears.

Speaking of the Lu family, he scolded a few words angrily, nothing more than saying that she was incorruptible and shameless, vicious and immoral, and couldn't help mentioning Lu Wanqin's goodness, and kept saying that Lu Wanqin's life was as thin as paper.

Bai Mujian just kept smiling faintly, not saying much, and occasionally picking up a few words, she was no longer used to exposing her heart to anyone.

And she also knew that the Lu family was about to pay the most painful price for her actions! She won't just forget it easily, the Lu family brothers and sisters, Bai Yunxi sisters and brothers, she won't let go of any of them!

A few days later, it will be the annual Qixi Festival, on this day the night of the capital will be a world of lanterns, and the night market will also be opened, which is a rare lively festival in the year except for the Lantern Festival.
