The withered yellow autumn leaves swept across the overly desolate courtyard of the cold courtyard, and Bai Wanqiao coughed violently for a while, and when the coughing stopped, she saw that the snow-white silk handkerchiefs in her skinny hands had been dyed with a dazzling red.

"It's winter!" He sighed, his voice filled with infinite amazement and relief.

The sky was like a wash, the dusk was about to fall, and the snowflakes were falling one after another, but when the first snowflakes fell on the red-dyed silk handkerchief, the owner of the silk handkerchief was already out of breath.

The silk handkerchief fell with the snowflakes and was soon buried by the first snow of the early winter.

——

"Miss, Miss, wake up."

Who?

Bai Wanqiao frowned, only to feel that her head was dizzy for a while, and she opened her eyes with great effort, but what caught her eyes was not the shabby gauze tent that she was familiar with, but the half-old azure soft gauze tent, and a few butterflies with wings were embroidered on the gauze tent.

"Miss, it's time to get up, the ship has docked and arrived in Linzhou." The voice rang in my ears again.

Bai Wanyan followed the sound and looked for it, and saw a little maid about six or seven years old standing next to her bed, Bai Wanyan looked at the little maid's appearance and was stunned.

"Herald?"

Bao Chun looked at Bai Wanyan with a stunned look, stretched out his hand and shook it in front of Bai Wanyan's eyes and said, "Miss, what's wrong?" ”

Looking at the shaking fingers in front of her, Bai Wanyan finally came back to her senses and lowered her head to hide the excitement in her eyes.

"It's okay!" Hiding her emotions, Bai Wanyu slowly got up and got out of bed, and then washed and dressed under the service of the spring.

And when Bai Wanyan sat in front of the dresser and looked at the very immature face in the mirror, she still couldn't hide her excitement in her eyes, and her little hand stroked the vermilion birthmark that occupied half of her right cheek.

Bao Chun, who combed Bai Wanyan's hair behind him, watched Bai Wanyan touch the birthmark on her face, a strange look flashed in her eyes, and she quickly picked up the veil on the dresser to put on Bai Wanyan, covering up the terrifying red birthmark on her face.

"Miss, don't worry, just wear a veil to cover it." The spring is not comforting, but comforting Bai Wanyu.

Bai Wanyan didn't pay attention to the spring report, just took down the hand on her face and stood up and said, "Let's go." ”

——

In the autumn of the second year of Qianyuan, Bai Hengting, the old lady of Bai, died of illness in office, and the Bai family had to return to their ancestral hometown of Jinping County, Xuzhou to guard filial piety.

In the sixth year of the Qianyuan Dynasty, the three-year filial piety period expired, and the emperor appointed Bai Yili, the uncle of the Bai family, as the fourth product of Linzhou.

In March of the same year, the Bai family finally came to Linzhou from Jinping County, Xuzhou for two months.

Bai Wanyan raised her eyes to look at the Bai family walking in front of her, remembering that the last time she saw the Bai family was ten years ago, although ten years have passed, Bai Wanyan still remembers the time when the Bai family forced herself to give way to Bai Wansi.

At that time, Bai Wanyan couldn't understand why Bai Wansi was the daughter of the third room and the daughter of her parents, Bai Wansi was the pearl of the third room, but she was not as good as a grass.

Even after Bai Wansi and her husband had a secret knot, everyone forced themselves to invite themselves to go down to the court to give way to Bai Wansi, and they refused to let their good parents let their personal maids poison themselves, if they didn't know a little bit of pharmacology, they smelled the strangeness of tea, and estimated that they would not have lived for ten more years in their previous life.

But now that I think about it, ten years of imprisonment in a cold hospital is actually no different from death.

And his good sister-in-law married into the house after she was imprisoned in the cold hospital.

In fact, for many years, Bai Wanxi has not understood why Bai Wansi, the daughter of the same parents, is a collection of thousands of pets, and she is not as good as a weed.

Originally, I thought it was the cause of the birthmark on my face, so I was not loved by my parents, nor by other elders in the house.

Until the fourth year in the cold courtyard, Zhixia secretly came to see him, Zhixia was already terminally ill at that time, perhaps because of the guilt before he died, Zhixia confessed everything he knew to himself.

It turned out that he was not born to the Shen family, and his good father had married a wife before, but he had always been in poor health and had been cold to his father, and the two of them had not had a round house after a year of marriage.

At first, his self-proclaimed romantic father would be a little flattering, but when he saw that people were still cold, he lost patience.

Since then, the two have been husband and wife on the surface, but in fact they are strangers, and it didn't take long for Shen Shuyu to come to the door with a big belly, Shen Shuyu is the daughter of Mr. Bai Yixiao, and she looks very delicate and lovely, and she has always been in love with Bai Yixiao, so she is a romantic and an admirer, and she has feelings for each other.

Bai Yixiao even married Shen Shuyu into the door with the gift of a flat wife, Shen Shuyu's stomach was also competitive, and only a few years after entering the door, Bai Yixiao gave birth to two sons and a daughter one after another, and in the Bai family, he only knew Shen Shuyu, the third lady, and did not recognize the wife who married the door in front of him.

Shen Shuyu sat firmly in the position of the third lady, which actually had little impact on the wife in front of her, who was still recuperating in her own yard.

According to Zhixia, although the frail and sickly wife was sickly and weak, she was born extremely beautiful, Bai Yixiao was a very amorous person, and once he accidentally entered the courtyard of the wife, and saw that although the wife was sick and weak, it was difficult to hide the beautiful face, so he had a thought.

Later, there was Bai Wanqiao, and the wife was already frail, and after giving birth to Bai Wanjiao, she couldn't afford to be sick, and she died before she was confined.

Bai Wanyan was born with a big birthmark on her face, and her biological mother died of illness shortly after Bai Wanliang was born, so everyone in Baifu thought that Bai Wanfan was an ominous person.

Old Madam Bai even moved the idea of drowning Bai Wanyu to death, but fortunately, she was stopped by Old Man Bai Hengting in the end.

There was a touch of indifference in her eyes, Bai Wanjiao looked at the Bai family in front of her, the one who walked in front was the old lady Yu, the eldest lady of the Bai family was the Li family, and next to the Li family was the uncle of the Bai family, Bai Yili, followed by several children and concubines in the big house.

The people in the second room of the Bai family are not there, and the one who walks behind the big room is the third room, his nominal good father Bai Yixiao, his good mother Shen Shuyu, and Bai Wansi who is holding by Shen Shuyu's side, and then the two sons in law of the Bai family's third room who are walking in front of him, Bai Jingyi and Bai Jingcheng, the two brothers, and behind him are the only concubines in the third room, Bai Jingxiu and Bai Yixiao's aunts.

Behind the third room is the four-room Bai Yiyou family, and the fifth master of the Bai family, Bai Yifeng, who has not married a wife.

As early as a month ago, when Bai Yili was appointed governor of Linzhou, the Bai family sent someone to Linzhou to buy a big mansion, and now the housekeeper has sent several carriages to pick up people at the dock.

Bai Wanqiao took the two maids of Baochun and Zhixia and the grandmother Jane to get into the carriage, the long carriage procession slowly moved forward, and when entering Linzhou City, Bai Wanqiao opened the carriage curtain, looked at the word "Linzhou" on the city gate, and thought that the Bai family had only lived in Linzhou for three years in the previous life.

Bai Hengting once served as the emperor's imperial teacher, and in the battle for succession, the Bai family had the merit of following the dragon, so Bai Yili's official career has always been good, otherwise he would not have been directly promoted from the original Zhengwupin Libu Lang to the current Zhengsipin Linzhou Zhizhou after the expiration of Ding Wei's three-year period.

In the assessment three years later, Bai Yili was directly transferred back to the realm capital and promoted to the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites of the third grade.
