Chapter 54: Neighbors
When the three of them returned to Xianyang, they separated.
Bai Zhong went home first, only to find that Bai Lan was not at home.
"Where did Lan'er go?"
Bai Zhong found the current housekeeper Zijin.
During his absence, everything in the family was managed by Zijin, and when he heard this, he said: "Miss often goes to the mansion next to her to chat with a lady, and she should still be there." ”
"The neighbor's wife?"
Bai Zhong thought to himself, and was about to go to find Bai Lan.
This area is considered an aristocratic area in Xianyang City, and those who live here are not ordinary people, and he is worried that Lan'er does not know much and is easy to be bullied by others.
But as soon as I walked outside the door, I happened to see Bai Lan walking back briskly.
"Big brother!"
Bai Lan finally saw her brother coming home, cheered, ran over happily, and said, "I thought my eldest brother went to war and didn't come back for so long." ”
Bai Zhong said softly: "Now you don't have to fight, where are you going to play?" ”
"I met a neighbor who was a very nice lady, and by the way, she just gave me a piece of jade."
Bai Lan took out a jade pendant from the collar.
This is a piece of fine Lantian jade, warm and delicate, and it is priceless at a glance.
Bai Lan asked a little worriedly: "This piece of jade should be very expensive, why don't I go back?" ”
Although she accepted the jade pendant, she couldn't refuse at that time, as an ordinary woman, she was hesitant about the suddenly obtained property.
However, she likes jade pendants very much, so she can't refuse them and wears them on her body unconsciously.
"You've taken it all, and it's rude to return it."
Bai Zhong could see that she liked it, and comforted: "Next time Lan'er takes me to visit that lady, I can return the gift." ”
"Big brother has a point."
Bai Lan quickly put down this worry, and said: "Big brother, you have to bring Yu'er here as soon as possible, I am alone at home, I don't have to do anything, and I don't know what I can do." ”
When Bai Zhong was away, she was the only owner of the family.
What you usually want to do, as long as Zijin finds out, he will immediately arrange for other subordinates to take over, and nothing can be done.
"I know, when I finish what I do here, I can go back to pick up Yu'er to Xianyang."
Bai Zhong could understand this girl's mood.
In the past, in Changxingli, you can go everywhere, you are not familiar with life here, and it is not easy to get to know a neighbor's wife, maybe the other party is also an empty and lonely person, and you will be familiar with each other after a few more exchanges.
"Big brother is the best!"
Bai Lan smiled happily and said, "I'm going to cook food for my eldest brother, and no one can stop me this time." ”
She found a reason to do something else and hurriedly walked to the kitchen.
After a while, Zijin came back and said anxiously: "General, Miss, she wants to cook herself, and we can't stop it." ”
"Don't stop it, let Lan'er do it."
Bai Zhong shook his head and said.
After a while, Bai Lan brought the millet made by herself to the hall and said happily: "Big brother, don't leave it, I see that you must have lost weight again every day in the barracks." ”
Eat meat every day in the barracks, although you can train, but you can't lose weight.
Seeing that his sister was so caring, Bai Zhong still ate it all even if he was full.
Bai Lan finally felt a little satisfied, and the following night, they all gathered around Bai Zhong, talking about going to see the lady in the past few days.
After her description, Bai Zhong could tell that the lady who didn't know who it was, was about thirty years old, very beautiful, and the family was super rich, possibly in business.
At night.
Bai Zhong went back to the room, thinking that he had been promoted to a knighthood again today, and was about to open the system panel.
"Big brother!"
Bai Lan happened to push open the door, came in with a small head, and asked, "Didn't bother you, did you?" ”
Bai Zhong shook his head and said, "How could Lan'er disturb me, is there something wrong?" ”
Bai Lan came in reassuringly and said softly: "Big brother, in fact, I want to be in Changxingli." ”
Although it is good and comfortable here, it has a lot less freedom than Changxingli.
"I understand that Lan'er wants to go back, I promised to let Lan'er live a good life before, if I come to Xianyang and leave you in Changxing, I don't worry."
Bai Zhong rubbed her hair lightly and said comfortingly.
Bai Lan sat on the couch, hugged his arm, and said in a soft voice: "Lan'er knows that the eldest brother is very good to me, what I said just now was regarded as disobedient and casually talked, can I still go to see that lady in the future?" ”
As long as she was not bullied, Bai Zhong would not refuse, and nodded: "Of course you can, but in other people's homes, you are not allowed to be ignorant, and we don't have any gifts at home, otherwise you can bring one over to return the gift first." ”
"Yes!"
Bai Lan jumped slightly, got down from the couch, pushed the door away like a gust of wind, and returned after a while, holding a delicate and precious pearl necklace in her hand.
Bai Zhong asked curiously, "Where did you get this?" ”
"In the room, in a small box, when the eldest brother was away, I was bored looking around and found this."
Bai Lan was a little ignorant and said: "In the small box, there are many jewelry, all of which are very expensive, why do the people who gave them to our house send these things?" ”
It turned out that Wu Lu deliberately left it.
In order to make friends with Bai Zhong, he did a lot.
However, it was also Zhao Gao who came forward, and there was the reason for Yingzheng, so Wu Lu was so generous.
Anyway, their merchants are not bad for money, Bai Zhong didn't think there was anything wrong with it, and explained: "Because I am very powerful, he wants to slap me, so he gave these gifts." ”
Bai Lan asked worriedly, "Will this be bad for the eldest brother?" ”
She suddenly felt that the jewelry was a little hot.
In Changxingli before, she had seen the previous Li being punished for taking bribes, although she didn't understand the law, but she happened to know this.
"Of course not!"
Bai Zhong said.
"That's good, I'll send it to Madame as a return gift tomorrow!"
Bai Lan solemnly put it away, and said, "I won't disturb my eldest brother's rest, I will go to the barracks tomorrow." ”
When she had said that, she left satisfied.
"This girl!"
Bai Zhong smiled, then opened the achievement panel and silently said, "Claim!" ”
"Get a piece of Heart Jade!"
As soon as the sound of the system fell, Bai Zhong saw that there was an extra red jade pendant in the space, and when he talked about the jade pendant just now, the system gave him a jade pendant, which was a bit of a coincidence.
When he took it out and looked at it, he felt that this jade pendant was very special, with mysterious lines on it, simple and distant, exuding a palpitating power.
Bai Zhong took it in his hand and looked at it, and under the light, he could see that among the lines, there was a word carved - heart!
"What does that mean?"
He didn't understand it very well.
The feeling of power still lingered on the jade pendant, and there was nothing special about it.
After looking at it for a long time, Bai Zhong couldn't see what it did, maybe it was hiding a special secret, so he put it back in the space casually, and then said, "Open the attribute panel!" ”

"I'm ready to destroy Han!"
Bai Zhong was thinking that he should be able to go to the battlefield and have the opportunity to make contributions.
According to his guess, the Ying Zheng Association has achieved initial results in the training of the Iron Eagle Warriors, and after today's gold sore medicine is produced in large quantities, it should not be far away to officially send troops to destroy Korea.
