Chapter 219: Self-Soothing
Bai Yunxi looked at the old lady Bai in flattery, usually such things were Bai Mujian's, even if he didn't enter the family temple, he had never been so favored by the old lady.
The grievances she just received from Bai Shizu were swept away, as long as there was Mrs. Bai at home to support her, then it was not certain who would win and who would lose between her and Bai Hibiscus!
In Bai Yunxi's view, Bai Hibiscus can be famous for the feast of flowers, which is the result of Mrs. Bai's teaching, and her good luck is not only the favor of Mrs. Lu, but also the support of her grandmother. Now that she also has her grandmother's blue eyes, she can't say that she can win the championship in the next Hundred Flowers Feast, you must know that she is three years younger than Bai Hibiscus, and she has one more chance!
If he can win the favor of a prince, then he will be a princess in the future, isn't he much more noble than the county lord? It's really good for a woman to marry well, what's so great about being a county lord, maybe in the end, a county horse is a wreck, and the house is broken!
Bai Yunxi's self-consolation played a very good suggestive role, allowing her to sweep away the previous haze, hold the old lady's hand with a smile, and walk towards Tangli Garden!
Mu Xinping didn't follow the past, but found an excuse to leave, she didn't offend Bai Hibiscus, even if she did it, but Bai Hibiscus will only settle the account on the old lady's head, take this opportunity to show goodwill, maybe she can save one or two, if Bai Hibiscus can still say a little to herself, then she will also have a dependence in the future.
The biggest person in the mansion now is Bai Muhibiscus, even if she goes to the county lord's mansion in the future, it won't hurt if she can get her support. But this matter has to be hidden from the old lady, and she can't let the old lady know that she has her own mind for the time being.
The old lady always wants to be old, if she can't bring down the Lu family before she is confused, she will definitely end up miserable in the future, if Bai Mu Hibiscus is willing to take care of it, the Lu family is not afraid, even if her children can not inherit the position of the prince, but it is certain that she will get a rich property, Bai Mu Hibiscus is the county lord, and her mother left such a valuable dowry, she must not be rare in the little family of the Guo Gong Mansion.
Thinking about it like this, it strengthened Mu Xinping's determination to surrender to Bai Mujian.
Before he entered the door of Yiqin Pavilion, he was stopped by a magpie, and he still asked with a smiling face, "Why is the second lady here?" The county lord is talking to the fifteenth prince and the eldest young master, please wait a while, and the slave will go and spread the word! ”
Although there is nothing wrong with the magpie's attitude, Mu Xinping feels that the girls around Bai Hibiscus are arrogant now, and there are many of them, even if her second lady takes the initiative to see Bai Hibiscus, she has to spread it! In the past, when she entered Jinlan Garden, she was directly allowed in!
It's not a taste in my heart, but I can't help it, who made Bai Mu Hibiscus not what it used to be, and her subordinates also followed the chicken dog to heaven! Now the magpie and the mandarin duck, including the servants before Jinlanyuan, are all rising boats, and in the future, they will all be the servants of the county lord's mansion, and the prime minister's seven officials, their identities and statuses are different!
After a while, the magpie came out to invite Mu Xinping in, and before Mu Xinping entered the hall, she heard Bai Hibiscus talking and laughing with two and a half children, and she thought that while Bai Hibiscus was in a good mood, she might forgive her for deliberately estranged before.
Compared with the other people of the Bai family to Bai Hibiscus, although she didn't speak for her, she didn't think about harming her, and the things she did were also secret, and they were all Old Madam Bai's ideas, she was just forced to act in desperation!
Thinking about it like this, Mu Xinping seems even more reasonable, if Bai Hibiscus wants to embarrass herself, she can also go to the old lady Bai, Bai Shizu blows the wind, saying that Bai Hibiscus has no one in his eyes, and he is rampant as soon as he gains power, and now Bai Hibiscus still has to live in the Bai family, so he can't help but give face to the old lady and Bai Shizu, annoy her elders, and you can also give her a crime of unfilial piety.
Even if he is the county lord, he has a bad reputation for unfilial piety, and he will be belittled by the emperor one day, although this possibility is relatively small, but Mu Xinping would rather believe in this truth.
Mu Xinping entered the hall and looked at Bai Hibiscus, only to remember that she was going to bow to her now, although she was Ping's wife, but Ping did not have a seal, she was a white body, and she had to bow down.
was a little hesitant, but listened to Bai Muhibiscus say: "Erniang is here, there are no outsiders here, so there is no need to be polite, sit down!" ”
Hearing Bai Hibiscus say this, Mu Xinping was overjoyed, and felt that Bai Hibiscus must still remember her past feelings, so she didn't plan to care about her previous rudeness.
As soon as I was happy, most of the previous sourness disappeared, and I hurriedly complimented: "Thank you to the county lord, I just received the order, the concubine is a white body and can't speak, so I came to say hello to the county lord!" ”
Bai Muhibiscus didn't seem to be going to pursue it, and responded with a smile: "Thank you Erniang, it's all the emperor's mercy, and I'm a little confused!" ”
"Where, the county lord is naturally smart, has a good heart, has both ability and political integrity, I heard that you not only won the championship in one fell swoop at the Hundred Flowers Feast, but also helped the queen defeat the princess of Goryeo, based on this alone, it is natural to be named a county lord!" Mu Xinping is sweet-mouthed, no wonder among so many nephews and daughters of Old Madam Bai, she took a fancy to her.
Bai Muhibiscus didn't plan to worry about those things with Mu Xinping, in the final analysis, this was just a chess piece, her chess piece and Old Madam Bai's chess piece, and there was only one purpose, that is, to deal with the Lu family.
So she didn't care about Mu Xinping's rudder, and she also needed Mu Xinping to continue to help her deal with the Lu family, so why embarrass her? But if she hurts people, then she can easily pinch her to death!
Bai Mujin still had a kind smile, and said: "Erniang praised it, where do I have both virtue and integrity and this kind of reputation, yesterday I was said to be unfilial, speaking of which, do you want to remind my father, open a ancestral hall, and condemn me for unfilial piety in front of the patriarch and elders?" ”
Mu Xinping was stunned, although she was not explicitly talking about her, Bai Hibiscus must have blamed herself for standing by yesterday, but it was precisely because Bai Hibiscus said it that Mu Xinping breathed a sigh of relief.
Because Bai Mujian deliberately didn't mention it, it meant that she didn't intend to forgive her at all, and when she brought it up, she gave herself the opportunity to admit her mistake, Mu Xinping is a smart person and naturally knows how to choose, so she knelt down and said: "The county lord forgives the sin, and the concubine was helpless yesterday, you know that I am alone in Baifu, and I have no support, I can only act according to the will of the old lady and my husband, and I can't speak for the county lord, it is indeed a concubine, and I hope the county lord will forgive!" ”
Bai Muhibiscus said secretly, Mu Xinping is really a smart person, but such a person is really hateful, and she always puts the responsibility on others, so no matter what she does, she is forced to be helpless, and it is someone else's fault.
Even if part of what she said was the truth, in the Bai family, she wanted to see the old lady's face, but others didn't know, her white hibiscus was very clear, and Mu Xinping's influence on the old lady Bai should not be underestimated.
In the final analysis, Mu Xinping had no intention of helping her at all, and even more, she also wanted to see herself unlucky, so that there would be one less person to compete with her for the Bai family's property in the future. People are selfish, how could Mu Xinping be an exception, she didn't intend to blame her, but she didn't like her to pick herself up!
Looking at Mu Xinping who was kneeling on the ground, Bai Muhibiscus took a sip of tea, looked at her silently, and said after a while: "Erniang, why bother, hurry up, although I am now the county lord, you are still my elder in the end, and when there are no outsiders, you don't have to make this big gift!" ”
Mu Xinping finally breathed a sigh of relief, although Bai Muhiscus deliberately made her kneel for a while, but when she said this, she really planned to let go of the previous matter.
"Thank you for your magnanimity!" Mu Xinping thanked him before daring to get up.
Bai Mujian didn't dare to take her gratitude seriously, this woman was just fledgling, once she gained power, she was afraid that it would be even more difficult to deal with than the Lu family, she knew the Lu family well, but she didn't have a deep understanding of Mu Xinping.
The sweeter the person on the surface, the more vicious she may be in her heart, but she deeply remembers this lesson!
In order to show her goodwill, Mu Xinping whispered: "County Lord, the concubine has something to tell you, can you take a step to speak?" ”
Bai Mujin looked at the people around him, and said to Bai Muchen and Feng Zhimu: "Muchen, you take Fifteen to your yard to play for a while, and then come to have lunch together!" ”
Bai Muchen and Feng Zhimu retreated with interest, and only Mandarin Duck and Mama Rui remained in the room.
Mu Xinping still had some doubts, but Bai Mujian said: "Mandarin Duck and Mama Rui are their own people, I have nothing to hide from them!" ”
Only then did Mu Xinping speak: "The witch Gu in the courtyard of the county lord believes that the county lord knows who did it, and the concubine body doesn't talk much, and the concubine body knows that she doesn't report it, and the sin is heavy, so she has come to make up for it!" ”
Speaking of this, Mu Xinping deliberately looked outside, looking cautious, but Bai Hibiscus just peeled a fruit and ate it idly, and didn't pay attention to it at all.
Mu Xinping was a little embarrassed, but she immediately corrected her mentality and said: "The concubine recently learned about something, which is related to Mrs. Yuan, after the concubine heard it, she was really scared, and she didn't dare to tell people easily, and she was afraid that telling the county lord would make you feel heartache, it was really helpless!" ”
Bai Mujin probably guessed what she was going to say, but deliberately pretended to be eager and asked, "What the hell is going on?" ”
When Mu Xinping saw Bai Hibiscus's demeanor, she knew that she had made the right bet, lowered her voice, and whispered: "Mrs. Yuan did not die of dystocia, but was drugged before, resulting in premature birth, and ...... And in the delivery room, Wen Po received benefits from others, so she collapsed, and Mrs. Yuan was killed! ”
Bai Mu Hibiscus had known about this for a long time, and he was not much surprised, but he still had to make a heartache and surprise on his face, and shook his head in disbelief and said: "Impossible, who has such courage, impossible!" ”
