Chapter 58: The Sacrifice Twins
The first thing Xuanguang did when he got out of the car in small steps was to look at Bailizhi not far away.
It can be seen that the raunchy Bailizhi is dressed exquisitely at this time, his ink hair that is not too long is tied in a single ponytail at the back of his head, and the gray robe on his body is clean and tidy.
The exquisite outfit neutralizes the ferocity in his body.
Now anyone who looks at him will think that he is a polite son of a family,
Noticing that Xuanguang was staring at him, Baili Zhi bowed slightly.
He wanted to signal Xuanguang not to worry, but he didn't expect that his casual movements would make Xuanguang's cheeks instantly stained with a shy pink.
She quickly turned her head, her eyes dodging everywhere, not daring to make eye contact with Bailizhi.
It's no wonder that although she is pretending, it is strange that she is not shy when she thinks that both of them will have to pretend to be a couple of you and me for the next period of time.
Unlike Xuanguang, Xuanyou walked to the door generously, and the woman in the door was waiting here early with the support of the maid.
Madame's eyes were gentle and kind, and her face was somewhat similar to that of the twin sisters, and she knew that she was sure that she was the mother of them without asking
Seeing Xuan You step forward, the woman immediately greeted her, and took Xuan You's slender hand in distress and said softly
"I'm finally back, Xuan Dazhu's shrew isn't embarrassed for you. ”
(Huh?)
Bailizhi stepped forward in small steps, just in time to hear the name of the woman's mouth.
He couldn't help but frown with some curiosity.
When I was wondering who Xuan Dazhu was talking about when I saw Xuanguang shaking his head
"The hostess was very nice to us, and we should have sent someone to help under the fence. ”
As if he knew something terrible, Bai Lizhi's expression suddenly stiffened on his face, and the corners of his eyes twitched a few times unconsciously.
It's not that he didn't ask the proprietress her real name, but every time he was confused by his vague words.
At this moment, I understood why the proprietress refused to tell Bailizhi her real name.
It's just too bad for her.
Fantasizing about her expression when she ran to the boss lady and called her full name, Baili Zhihou trembled with fear.
Madame noticed Bai Lizhi with a solemn expression, and looked the young man up and down curiously, her voice full of doubts
"Who is this?"
"I'm ......" Baili Zhi wanted to reply directly, but was answered by Xuanguang first
"He is Bailizhi, and he is a distinguished guest of Grandma Xuanling. ”
After Xuanguang's words fell, he quickly turned his head again, not looking at Baili Zhi.
Even now, when she sees Bailizhi's face, she still unconsciously makes her heart beat faster,
The parties are confused.
Xuanguang herself didn't think she was in estrus, she only thought that she was so embarrassed because of the oolong incident that night.
Although she didn't know her condition, it didn't mean that Madame couldn't see it.
Realizing Xuanguang's abnormality, Madame immediately cast a look at Xuanyou for verification.
Seeing Xuan You nodding in confirmation, Mrs. looked at Baili Zhi on the side again.
If the first time I looked at it out of curiosity, this time it was full of scrutiny.
Before everyone came, they secretly discussed how to deal with various situations, and the silence in front of the door at this moment was naturally prepared.
Baili Zhi raised his hand slightly, and Long Xin, who was standing in the distance, immediately trotted to his side with a delicate wooden box.
The young man respectfully held up the wooden box for Baili Zhi, and as the top lid of the delicate wooden box was lifted, the two round jade orbs in the lying box were also exposed to everyone's field of vision.
The precious emerald beads made the surrounding servants suddenly whisper, and when they listened carefully, they were all serious.
Ignoring the noise of the people, Bai Lizhi recited the words that Long Xin had forced him to write down before
"The pearl of the green sea, male and female, has the ability to gather blessings and ward off evil spirits. When I came to the door for the first time, I prepared a special gift, and I hope that Mrs. will accept it with a smile. ”
Is this still called Bo Li?
You must know that the orb psychic is definitely a rare play with no price in the market.
Those who can come up with such greeting gifts must be rich or expensive.
You don't have to think about it to know that this treasure was taken from Ryusina.
Although Long Xin has money, he always asks him to pay for what he does, and Baili Zhi is really a little embarrassed.
I wanted everything to be simple,
But Long Xin, this kid, went crazy after hearing this, and wanted to pay a lot of money to give Baili Zhi a full body package.
It is bound to package his beloved Mr. Bailizhi into the appearance of a child of the wealthy family at a glance.
Re-closing, Baili Zhi pretended to be casual and exposed the dragon jade bracelet on his wrist. The casual action this time even the well-informed personal maid beside the lady showed a shocked look.
Although the jade orb is a valuable treasure without a market, if you have a heart, the Xuan family can also receive it in your hands through some connections.
Compared to it, if you want to get your hands on the dragon jade bracelet, it will be a little difficult.
The value of dragon jade is not the jade itself, but more of a proof of the relationship between the wearer and the dragon family.
Only friends who are considered equal by the pure-blood dragons will be gifted with such jewels.
The lady with a calm expression took the wooden box handed by Long Xin, and handed it to the maid, and then said softly with a smile
"Thank you Baili Gongzi, since you are a guest of Grandma Xuanling, you are a guest of my Xuan family.
It's inconvenient to chat here, so I ask my son to follow me into the house and warm up first. ”
(Beautiful!Looks like the first level has passed!)
Baili Zhichang, who had his heart in his throat, breathed a long sigh of relief, and followed his wife and twin sisters and walked towards the mansion.
From the outside of the wall, you can see the grand mansion, and you can feel how imposing the building is when you walk in.
Bai Lizhi, who was following Xuanguang, smacked his tongue and whispered to Xuanguang in a voice that could only be heard by the two of them
"Are you still a big lady?"
"Hmmm......"
Just use a non-trivial 'um' to answer Bailizhi's question.
Xuanguang still turned his head and didn't look at Bailizhi, the more she was like this, the more Bailizhi wanted to resolve the embarrassment, according to the plan, the two of them should behave like you and me at this moment.
Before coming, Xuanguang was still able to endure his shyness and discuss countermeasures with Baili Zhi.
But when I go back to my hometown and see my familiar relatives, I feel shy, and I can't control it, and I may go on like this.
A young lady who doesn't believe that she is in estrus.
A young man who doesn't know that there is a stubble in estrus.
The subtle atmosphere between the two made the hearts of the servants who followed behind come alive.
There are even a few waitresses who are in love, and they have already remembered the vigorous love story that does not exist between the two.
Even if they all saw that there was a story between their young lady and the six-eyed son, let alone the lady?
After walking for a long time in front of a long corridor, Madame suddenly stopped and instructed the servants who followed behind
"The journey is tiring, you first take Xuanyou Xuanguang back to the room to rest"
As she spoke, the woman smiled lightly at Bailizhi and said, "I have something I want to ask Bailizhi Gongzi, can you take a step to speak?"
Okay!
That's where the trouble begins!
Bailizhi bowed slightly, he didn't have any right to refuse at this time.
He cautiously cast a slightly meaningful look at Long Xin.
Receiving the sight, Long Xin nodded slightly, signaling Mr. Baili Zhi to rest assured.
Although Baili Zhi is not good at dealing with these upper-class noblewomen, isn't there still Long Xin?
With him on the side, he can also help Bailizhi make a round and help Bailizhi find and make up for the loopholes in his words.
It should have been like this, but unexpectedly, the maid who had been following his wife suddenly challenged Long Xin.
She walked up to Long Xin in small steps and said with a smile
"Come with me, little one. ”
"But I'm going to ...... with my brother."
Long Xin immediately refused the girl who wanted to break him away, but unexpectedly, the girl unceremoniously grabbed the boy's arm.
While talking: Madame and Son-in-law have important things to discuss, so let's not get in the way.
While pushing and shoving, Long Xin was taken away from Bailizhi's side.
Seeing that the savior was taken away, Bai Lizhi's heart suddenly turned upside down, he wanted to stop the girl, but he saw Long Xin with a particularly sharp look in his eyes, forcing Bai Li Zhi to stop this bold idea.
His current identity is the son of a wealthy family, and if a follower is taken away and he is in a mess, it will definitely make the other party suspicious.
Seeing that the personal maid had taken away the outsiders, the lady took the lead and continued to walk deeper into the corridor.
It could be seen that the mother of the twin sisters was not in a hurry to talk to Bailizhi, both of them remained silent, and the corridor was very quiet, only the sound of footsteps echoed.
Looking up, there are all kinds of calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall, and the ink used in calligraphy and painting should be very particular, even if it has dried up for several years, it can still make passers-by smell the faint fragrance of ink.
As he walked, Bailizhi's footsteps suddenly stopped, and his eyes stared at a beautiful painting in front of him.
The person in the painting looks a little similar to Xuanguang, but his temperament is far more dignified than that girl.
Realizing that Bailizhi stopped, the lady who was walking in front also stopped.
Bai Lizhi pointed to the person on the painting and asked his wife
"She's Xuanguang?"
Madame shook her head, her eyes seemed to be a little complicated, and explained, "The person in the painting is my twin sister and the biological mother of Xuanguang and Xuanyou. ”
"So madam, you're not their biological mother!"
Madame's answer made Bailizhi slightly stunned.
Originally, Bailizhi thought that the word "regarded as oneself" was just an exaggerated rhetorical device. But this time, when he saw his wife's eyes full of maternal love when she looked at Xuanyu Xuanguang, Baili Zhi believed that this was true.
Bailizhi, who was thinking like this, suddenly had another doubt rising in his heart.
Regardless of whether he said it or not, he blurted out directly and asked
"I heard that they have been away from home for ten years and returned home after ten years, why is there no trace of their biological mother?"
This question seemed to uncover a hidden scar that was not raised by outsiders, and the lady had some sadness on her face, and slowly spoke, saying something that shocked Bailizhi.
"My sister passed away ten years ago, and this is the unchanging curse of the sacrifice twins"
The word sacrificial twins is mentioned for the first time.
Bailizhi could vaguely feel that this word should refer to the two sisters of Xuanguang and Xuanyu.
Coupled with the ritual that Uncle Seven and Baili Zhi said before, a bad premonition became more and more intense, and he subconsciously asked
"Sacrifice Twins?"
"Didn't Xuanguang tell Childe?
I thought she would break the marriage contract and bring you back to meet your parents, and she would definitely tell you these things first......"
Ay?
I obviously haven't shown how tired I am with Xuanguang, but Mrs. has already guessed the current relationship between the two? It's just that Mrs. doesn't know that this relationship is disguised.
Let's not mention the matter of pretending to be lovers,
The incident that Xuanguang didn't tell himself made Bailizhi even more curious.
Madame also did not drag the mud and water, and explained bluntly
"Every twenty years, a pair of sacrificial twins are born, and one of the twins is chosen to be the core of the ritual.
After the ceremony was completed, the girl was cursed and died young.
For some reason, Xuanyou can't continue to serve as a sacrifice, and the only one who can replace her is Xuanguang......"
