Chapter 41: Tire Marks
The Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and the people are reunited, but Bai Shaojie has been drinking alone for a few days, sitting in his yard, and now he has a new house in Chongning, everything is ready, just waiting for the Mid-Autumn Festival to marry Yang Wanxi, the young lady of the Yang family, and enter the door.
Although he can't say that he hates Yang Wanxi, he just feels in his heart that he is really unwilling to be tied up like this.
If you want to tell your parents not to marry Miss Yang, then you have to have a reason, for example, he has a heart to belong to, which Miss is hidden in his heart, but he can still struggle, but there is no such person.
Now he is also twenty-four years old, he is not young, and he can't be cheeky to say that he is still young, he is really sad that Bai Ershao's thousands of intestines have been broken, and now even Mei Xue has someone to come to say goodbye.
That year, when she first came to Bai's house, she was only three years old, and now she is grown up, and she is no longer the little doll riding on her shoulder, and she is afraid that she will rarely have the opportunity to accompany him to the mountains in the future, so she thought that on the first day of August, he would return to Chunxi Town, and then accompany Bai Meixue to go to the incense.
At the end of July, Bai Meixue made an appointment with Li Tang, and went to Chongning Xie Yuan to see Xie Heng together, Bai Shaojie said that he also accompanied the two of her, but Qing Yaju was busy today, and asked her to go first, he went to pick up people later, and then returned to Chunxi Town together, and went to Shangxiang on the first day of the new year.
Li Tang and the others went to Xie Yuan first, and when they entered the garden to the backyard, they knew that Liang Yuchen was also there today, and Rong Xiaoxing, the three of them were drinking tea and talking at a table in the backyard, and when they saw her two coming in, they asked her to be at the same table.
I didn't think about entering the table, Mu Qingqing entered the garden again, and just came up to see the ceremony, Liang Yuchen and Rong Xiaoxing went back first, thinking that there was a female disciple here, and the two of them were not good to treat.
Li Tang Bai Meixue stood up and bid farewell to the two of them by Xie Heng's side, but Li Tang saw the purse on Rong Xiaoxing's waist, which was a little familiar, and he lowered his head and picked up the purse on his waist to see that it was exactly the same, so he was about to speak:
"Brother Rong, your lotus..."
"Li Tang..." didn't think about just opening his mouth, but was stopped by Xie Heng, his voice sounded a little eager, as if he wanted to stop her from saying anything, Li Tang turned his head to look at Xie Heng in confusion.
The two of them came today, and as soon as they came in, he saw the purse on Li Tang's waist at a glance, and she didn't often hang it on her body, but she didn't know how to take it out again today, and she was faintly worried and a little worried in her heart.
Fortunately, Li Tang is a daughter's family, and Rong Xiaoxing didn't take a closer look at the girl's family, so he didn't find out, and now he saw that Liang Yuchen was leaving, so he didn't leave anyone, hoping that he and Rong Xiaoxing would leave quickly, so as not to give birth to anything.
Seeing Li Tang looking at him, Xie Heng put away the sternness that came suddenly just now, smiled at her and said that it was okay, then said goodbye to Liang Yuchen Rong Xiaoxing, and personally sent someone out of the door.
Li Tang couldn't understand it, and when Xie Heng sent someone out, there were two people when he came back, and Bai Shaojie was walking side by side beside him, saying that he would come later, but he came so soon.
Bai Meixue and Li Tang are frequent visitors to Xie Yuan, and Bai Shaojie is Bai Meixue's brother, so when he came to Xie Yuan, he can be regarded as Xie Heng's guest, and he just introduced Bai Shaojie to sit down and asked someone to change the tea and pastries.
Li Tang cautiously said:
"Sir, why didn't you allow me to speak?"
Xie Heng picked up the teacup and found a reason at random, and said with a relaxed face:
"The two of them are in a hurry to go out, if you talk too much, you will delay others!"
The two of them were not in a hurry to go anywhere, where would be delayed by her, Xie Heng didn't bother to care whether she believed it or not.
Li Tang still thought in his heart that Xie Heng was also worried that she would be rude, so he picked up his purse and spoke:
"I just want to say that Brother Rong's purse is exactly the same as mine."
Needless to say than Li Tang, of course Xie Heng knew that it was exactly the same, the purse of the Rong family's brothers, except for the different words inside, was exactly the same, and it was because he knew that he wanted to stop her.
Now although he has to see Rong Xiaoxing because of Liang Yuchen, he doesn't want to have anything to do with the Rong family, so naturally he can't tell Li Tang.
"You have a daughter's family, wouldn't it be misleading to say this." Xie Heng has many reasons, he can't control a little girl doll?
Li Tang never thought about this, so he had to pout:
"Got it, thank you for your teachings."
Xie Heng took the tea seriously, this Master Xie's mentality and cheek are really... Don't dare to say anything.
Listening to the two of them discussing the faux pas, Bai Shaojie looked at the purse in Li Tang's hand, looked at it and felt familiar, so he said to Li Tang:
"You show me."
Now he has long regarded Li Tang as his sister, and he no longer sees her as a black pot like before, but he is not as soft-spoken as he did to Bai Meixue, and his tone is much more casual.
Li Tang took off the purse and handed it over, Bai Shaojie took it in his hand and looked left and right, took it in his hand and twisted it a few times, and finally opened the purse and turned it out, and when he saw the maple word embroidered on it, he shouted:
"Isn't this Mei Xue's purse? How did it get into your hands! ”
A few people on the side, except for Mu Qingqing, everyone looked at Bai Shaojie, as if he had said something strange, and was suddenly looked at like this by everyone, Bai Shaojie was a little embarrassed, but what he said, he explained:
"This was originally Mei Xue's, I still remember that Chinese New Year's Eve, I took her to the town, accidentally lost this purse, I took people from home to town all the way to look for it, but unfortunately I didn't find it, and I was trained by my father when I went back."
That was the only important thing on Bai Meixue's body when she first entered the Bai family, and at that time, Mrs. Bai looked at this purse and thought that it was something that could know her identity, but she never thought that he would take it out of town and lose it.
Although he was reprimanded by his father, his mother didn't say anything, he just lost it, so he wouldn't feel so guilty, but he couldn't say it at this time, so many years have passed, no one came to look for Mei Xue, she has been the daughter of the Bai family all her life, and he can't say that she is the secret of adoption.
Xie Heng hurriedly asked Bai Shaojie:
"What year did you lose it?"
"Seven years of Yongle, that Chinese New Year's Eve." When Bai Meixue entered the Bai family that year, he naturally remembered it clearly.
Xie Heng clenched the teacup in his hand and looked at Chao Bai Meixue, his eyes swelled with clusters of warmth, and he sighed in his heart, this fate is so strange.
It is said that he has also seen everyone in the Bai family, Bai Shaozheng and Bai Shaojie, the two brothers, inherited a little bit of Mrs. Bai's appearance, but Bai Meixue is neither like Mrs. Bai, nor like Master Bai, the doll back then was indeed her!
I never thought that the doll had been turning in front of him for many years, and now it was so big, I wondered if he would have recognized her earlier if he hadn't lost the purse back then.
Xie Heng sighed in her heart, from beginning to end, Bai Meixue never said a word, she didn't remember the purse, but she suddenly got lost with her family and entered the Bai Mansion, and she still vaguely remembered a little.
The more she grows, the more vague it becomes, but it is like a thorn in her heart, she thought she was about to forget, but now when she heard Bai Shaojie talk about this, her heart seemed to be splashed with a basin of water and she woke up.
Li Tang saw that Bai Shaojie said so truthfully, so he thought that there would be no mistake, and said to Bai Meixue:
"Mei Xue, I never thought that such a strange thing would happen to you and me in this world, and I somehow found this purse back then, since it was yours, it was returned to the original owner."
was shouted back to her senses by Li Tang, Bai Meixue put away those memories and feelings, just smiled and nodded, and took the purse handed over by Bai Shaojie, it was so strange in her hand, she had no memory of this purse.
Xie Heng saw that she had not been very good since she talked about her purse just now, and she knew a little in her heart, after so many years, she still remembered something, she must be lamenting her life experience at the moment.
Inevitably, she thought about these old things a lot, and thought that if she had the opportunity in the future, if she was willing, she would tell her about the things of the past, so she asked about the matter of the scroll and turned the attention of a few people.
After a few people finished talking, Bai Shaojie said that he wanted to rush back to Chunxi Town, and no longer stayed, Mu Qingqing also said that it was time to go home, Xie Heng got up to say goodbye to a few people, and was led out of the courtyard by his subordinates.
When a few people came to the front yard, they saw an uninvited guest hanging in the front yard, it was the second son of the Jiang family who was pestering Mu Qingqing.
Jiang Nanxun was admonished by his father for a long time, but he didn't come often, but he couldn't help but secretly look for opportunities, wanting to see Mu Qingqing a few times, and today he heard that Mu Qingqing came to Xie Yuan again, so he followed.
At this time, seeing Mu Qingqing coming out of the courtyard with Bai Meixue, with Bai Shaojie and Li Tang beside him, seeing Jiang Nanxun standing in the courtyard, he was disgusted in his heart, and he was reluctant to take care of it as usual, so he was too lazy to give up his eyes.
Seeing her come out, Jiang Nanxun was about to step forward to talk, but when he stepped up, he saw Bai Meixue beside Mu Qingqing, Jiang Nanxun suddenly stopped and did not step forward, and did not shy away from staring at Bai Meixue.
was so unreasonable, Bai Meixue was very displeased, just thinking that this person was an acquaintance of her senior sister, Mu Qingqing didn't speak, and she didn't have a seizure, so she walked between Bai Shaojie and Li Tang and went out with Mu Qingqing.
Unexpectedly, the man had been following them out of the door, still watching, Bai Shaojie and Li Tang also found out, that look was really annoying, and in an instant, the two of them looked at the person with a sharp gaze.
Jiang Nanxun realized that he was rude, so he hurriedly collected his footsteps and eyes, and left with the family on the side.
Seeing him leave, Bai Shaojie didn't say anything, but Li Tang didn't know why, the tire mark on the root of his middle finger suddenly seemed to be burned, and when he picked up his hand, there was nothing unusual, but the burning sensation just now was real.
After stroking the fetal marks a few times, it was fine again, so she didn't pay much attention to it, and got into the carriage with Bai Meixue.
Jiang Nanxun watched the carriage leave at the intersection of Xie Yuan Road, and it took a long time before he came back to his senses, and without saying a word, he took people back to the mansion and sent his subordinates:
"Go and ask me, and be sure to ask whose lady it is."
Chongning City is not small, but it is not difficult for his Jiang family to inquire about Xie Yuan's people, and after half a day's effort, the house slave came to report:
"Second young master, I have already inquired, it is Miss Bai Meixue of the Bai family in Chunxi Town, outside the city."
Jiang Nan hurriedly asked:
"Oh, have there ever been any people?"
"Miss Baijia is fourteen years old, and I have never heard of Xu Ren's family, but Baifu has a wide relationship in Chongning, and the capital is also involved, and I don't know if there is a marriage contract."
Jiang Nanxun waved his hand to send the house slave out, holding the tea cup and thinking deeply, he didn't know what he was thinking about in his mind, but his eyes revealed the essence and was unpredictable.
