Chapter 479: Forgetting Worries and the State Banquet (24)
【】
Three years later, Jinguancheng.
In a bustling vegetable market, a woman in a fancy costume squats in front of a fish vendor without any image to speak of.
Don't look at the small stall, there are all kinds of fish on it, and every time you come to sell fish, the woman can't help but pick her eyes. It's been half an hour since she showed up in front of the fish stall, but she still hasn't made up her mind, and she doesn't know which one to buy to go back to.
"Madame Bai, have you thought about it? This is a carp, a catfish, a black fish or a mermaid. ”
"I haven't thought about it, I'm worried." Bai Li frowned: "Before going out today, I was thinking of buying a cuttlefish to go back." My husband has been busy with fortune telling these days, and he is so tired that he needs to drink some fish soup to make up for it. But Huan'er also yelled for several days, saying that she wanted to eat grilled fish. So I was in a quandary, I didn't know whether to buy stewed or roasted. ”
"Then Madame buys one?"
"It's a great idea!" Bai Li high-fived, but after getting up, he regretted it again: "No, no, no, I've been sleepy these days, and the last thing I want to do is cook." It's okay to get one, but I'm afraid I can't do two. ”
"Isn't there a cook in Madame's house? I see the cook is pretty good. Madame asked her to cook. ”
"Can the cook do as well as I do? Even if it's better than me, the meaning is different. The cook cooked rice for my husband, which was cooking for my grandfather, and it was a simple meal. I'm different, I cook for my husband, it's a wife cooking for her husband, it's full of love and love. I can cook for my husband and my daughter, if I only have my husband in my eyes and no daughter, then I am still a qualified mother. Therefore, Huan'er's rice must also be cooked by me. Hey, you haven't married and had children yet, you won't understand the difference here. ”
When Bai Li said the first few sentences, the fish seller could still close his eyes and pretend to be asleep, but this last sentence really hurt him.
"Look at the hurt look on your face. Otherwise, you don't want this fish money today, I will ask my husband to calculate a marriage for you, and help you see where your future lady is, so as to show you a direction and let you find her as soon as possible. ”
"What if I'm not married?" The fishmonger picked up two fishes and put them in a basket at Bai Li's feet without looking.
"Rest assured, who in this Jinguan City doesn't know my husband's ability. Even if you don't have a marriage in your life, I will ask him to arrange a marriage for you. Fish, I took it. What about you, when you come to our Baifu after the stall is closed, I will ask my husband to do the math for you, and ensure that you will marry a wife this year and have a child next year. ”
"Madame Bai doesn't want to trick me."
"I look like the kind of person who can trick you, our Bai family's fortune-telling is a must, and there are golden signboards." Bai Li dozed off as she spoke, "Maybe I've been squatting for too long, and everyone is sleepy." I'll go back first, you remember to come to Baifu after closing the stall, and I'll ask the housekeeper to keep the door for you. ”
Carrying a bamboo basket and dozing off, Bai Li was so imageless, and it was particularly eye-catching to go out of the vegetable market.
The official family of Baifu stopped outside the vegetable market in a carriage, raised his eyes and saw Bai Li, and hurriedly trotted over to greet him: "Madame finished buying vegetables?" ”
"I didn't buy vegetables, I bought two fish." Bai Li handed the fish to the butler: "Walk slowly on the road, I'll take a nap in the car." I don't know what's going on these days, and I'm always sleepy. ”
The housekeeper still wanted to say something to Bai Li, and she had already lifted the corners of her skirt and was ready to climb into the carriage by herself. As soon as he stretched out his hand, his hand was grabbed. raised his eyelids slightly, and saw that it was his husband, so he was dragged up by him, and the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were all smiling: "Isn't my husband's business bad today?" How do you have the kung fu to pick me up at the vegetable market? ”
"Business is not good, I waited for a day and didn't wait for a few fortune tellers." Bai Li hugged her: "Madam, what are you going to gain today?" ”
"Bought two fish, the kind that doesn't cost money. Also, I solicited a business for my husband. ”
"Madame is so powerful?"
"Of course, you don't look at who my husband is." Bai Li said arrogantly, while finding a more comfortable position in Bai Ze's arms, "I know it's hard for you to pick me up, and I also want to chat with you, but I'm really sleepy, my eyelids are very heavy, and I can't open them." So, dear husband, can I just rest for a while and just squint for a while. ”
"Good!" Bai Ze responded by lifting the curtain of the carriage a little.
Although Jinguancheng is said to be like spring in all seasons, the climate change in each season is still different, and this season is the best. The sun is soft, and the wind is gentle and gentle, and it is very comfortable to blow on people.
Bai Li lazily lay on Bai Li's body, meekly like a cat. Bai Ze first looked down for a while, then raised her wrist to carefully check her pulse.
Outside the carriage, the butler first looked inside, and then asked, "Master, is she okay?" ”
"Something's wrong!" Bai Ze first responded softly, and then lightly opened Bai Li's wrist and placed it properly, and then said with a smile: "There is something, but it is a happy event." ”
The housekeeper blinked, blinked again, and then understood, and grinned to the root of his ear: "Congratulations, congratulations, Mrs. is happy." Great, that's great. Look at me stupid, why didn't I think of this one, I'm also a father anyway. Don't worry, this work of buying vegetables will be done by my wife in the future, and I can't tire my wife. ”
The cook of Baifu is the housekeeper's wife, and this marriage was matched by the Bai couple. They have a daughter who has just turned two years old, and it is a cute and likable time.
When he woke up, Bai Li knew that he had been sleepy recently because he had a child in his womb, and after being stunned for a moment, he immediately turned his head and asked Bai Ze: "Am I really pregnant?" More than two months? So why don't I feel it at all? ”
Bai Ze had a calm face and didn't say a word, but his heart was full of self-blame. He is still a doctor who can pinch and calculate, and he doesn't even know that his wife is more than two months pregnant.
"Alas! Speaking of which, I am also to blame, I was careless. I didn't think that being sleepy and smelling meat were all symptoms of the first trimester. I've read so many books before.,I forgot about it.。 I thought I had a special physique, so what strange changes were going to happen? ”
"Don't blame Madame, blame me." Bai Ze looked at her: "I didn't expect Madame to be pregnant." ”
"What do you mean? You don't suspect that the baby in my belly isn't yours, do you? Bai Li looked at Bai Ze: "You are Bai Ze, you are responsible for saying this kind of thing." ”
"Madame, I didn't mean that." Bai Ze put his hand on Bai Li's abdomen, and a white aura that seemed to be empty floated lightly on it: "There is something, I haven't told Madame." Before we left Huaxi Town, I met your master and the old fox, and asked if Mrs. would be pregnant. ”
"You ask them this?"
"Hmm!" Bai Ze nodded: "They are well-informed, especially the old fox from Qingqiu, if even he doesn't know the answer, then I'm afraid no one in this world can answer my confusion." ”
"What did my master say to the old fox?"
"They said—" Bai Ze sighed, "They say that my worries are unnecessary, that Bai Ze was born in response to the aura of heaven and earth, and it is impossible for him to conceive an heir at all, let alone conceive an heir with a mortal." ”
"......" Bai Li looked at his stomach speechlessly: "Then what is it in my belly?" ”
"I guess it's a kid." Bai Ze stared at Bai Li's stomach: "At least it looks like a child now." ”
The corners of Bai Li's mouth twitched, and he looked at Bai Ze and said, "I thought my husband was omnipotent and knew everything." As a result, he couldn't even tell whether his child was a child or not. ”
