Chapter Ninety-Four: The End of the Year
Time passed in a hurry, and as the New Year approached, Yuanjing seemed to be a little more lively than usual. The streets and alleys are full of red lanterns, the men's robes on the street are undulating in the cold wind, the corners of their clothes are sweeping the snow on the ground, and there are occasional women and children, looking at the New Year's goods set up on the streets, reaching out and pointing at interesting things.
These days, the Taiwei's Mansion is also lively, or it is usually lively, but it is more lively these days, and it is already a little noisy before dawn, and every time it is so noisy that he can't sleep on his own, so he gets up early. Bai Zhan was also busy, preparing things for Chinese New Year's Eve.
In the white self-smelling courtyard, relying on Zhu'er alone, he arranged the inside and outside properly, and pasted those red and festive things on the doors and windows. Even Joy has healed his wounds after these days. came out to help Zhu'er take care of the affairs of Wenxun Courtyard. And Bai Zi is still very idle these days, and the beads in the yard can be taken care of properly, and she doesn't need her to say anything, the ...... outside the yard Nothing is going on these days.
But she was only idle for two days, and Leshan came to report: "Miss, King Huai is banned."
Bai Zi was nonchalant: "Really?"
Leshan: "The officials already know about this."
Bai Zi only gave a faint "um", and then stopped paying too much attention to this matter. In any case, as long as it doesn't hurt her interests.
Leshan went down after saying this. After a while, Bai Zhan's clan came over to look for Bai in his busy schedule. Bai Zi was a little surprised, she had heard her subordinates say in the past few days, and Madame was busy in the house, and she fell asleep late at night. It's just that when she looked at Bai Zhan's intercolor, it seemed that it was no different from usual, and she couldn't see a tired state, so she was a little puzzled:
"Why did Mother come here? I heard that my mother was very busy, so I didn't bother you. ”
Bai Zhan always had a tenderness in his eyebrows and eyes, and smiled at her: "There are some things that your father has helped deal with, and your mother is not too busy." As she spoke, she put her hand on Bai Zi's head and rubbed her black hair, saying, "I was going to come to see you a few days ago, but I didn't have time, and I was afraid that you would sleep at night." Unexpectedly, Aunt Yuan didn't come to look for her mother. As she spoke, there was a trace of worry on her face: "Aunt Yuan's temperament is so calm now, my mother thinks you have forgotten your mother."
But Bai didn't have much to defend herself, a few days ago, she did forget about Bai Zhan's ...... She only said lightly: "Okay, I'll go to see my mother more." In this way, the wishes of the Bai Zhan clan were also satisfied. She nodded and said:
"It's good that Aunt Yuan has such a heart."
Shiro smiled to himself, not planning to say more. And Bai Zhan spoke again: "Approaching the end of the year, the people in the mansion are planning to buy some new things. Mother also plans to ask Xiuniang to make a few clothes for Yuangu, what about Yuangu? What do you want to buy? ”
Bai Zi lowered his head and thought about it now, and said, "Xing'er wants to go out and have a look by himself." I heard there's a treasure chest outside the city? There are also a lot of gadgets, so I want to check them out. ”
Bai Zhan's clan was a little embarrassed at this time, frowned, and said, "But now, there are many people in the New Year, and the carriage is ...... I'm afraid it's not easy to walk. ”
Bai himself is not forced: "Then I will go back in the next year."
Seeing that she was so persistent, Bai Zhan had no choice but to nod, but fortunately, there were fewer people after the year.
At this time, Bai Zhan said with emotion: "After the New Year, Aunt Yuan will be thirteen years old, and she can be regarded as a big girl."
Bai Zi listened to her words and smiled, and said, "How old are you still your mother's daughter?"
When Bai Zhan heard this, he smiled happily and said, "Yes, they are all mother's daughters."
Bai Zi asked at this time: "For the Chinese New Year, should we go to Queensland to see my grandfather?"
Bai Zhan lowered his eyebrows and said: "Queensland is too far away, the emperor will still reward food at the end of the year, thank you, you should not be able to go back." I can only wait for the time to visit Queensland after the year. ”
Bai Zi: "Then the children from Queensland, will they come over?"
Bai Zhan shook his head and said, "I don't know yet." She continued: "There are always some young talents in the family, who want to come to Yuanjing to see the world, they all have the right to chase power, if you want to come, then come over, anyway, there are still many places in the Taiwei Mansion that are empty."
Bai Zi: "Why doesn't Daddy go out of another yard, if Queensland wants to come over, let them live in that yard, but there are fewer gossips."
Bai Zhan disagreed: "This matter is good, but it is inappropriate. Your grandfather didn't love the separation of his family, and if he knew that your father did this, I am afraid that a letter and a scolding would come. ”
Bai Zi: "But the Taiwei Mansion is on the cusp of the storm, if you want to come to study, the noise of the Taiwei Mansion is not suitable."
When Bai Zhan heard this, he lowered his eyebrows and thought about it, what Yuan Gu said made some sense, and she said, "I'll talk to your father about this matter."
Shiro nodded to himself and said no more.
